When I was your age (yeah I sound like some old man) it was all I could do to afford a very used Honda or Kawasaki. You're off to a good start already. Congrats on the bike.

Congrats and welcome to the party. You will find that once your @$$ is planted in the seat, the bike you are on becomes the bike of your dreams Just make sure to watch out for the other idiots out there. They don't give a **** about motorcycles.
