Hi All,

New guy here! I am signed up for new rider course through HD at the end of October and excited to join the TW world. I am considering a Street 750 for a starter bike, but I am 6' 2" and am concerned it may not be tall enough for me. Will a Street 750 work for a stater bike for me to learn on?

Thanks,
Chris

 

Welcome to the forums from Virginia.................

 

Welcome from Spartan Country, Michigan!
I tell a lot of new comers to the forum to get: Factory Service manual and the Parts manual. Get a three ring binder and record all your maintenance, repairs, accessories, etc. This will be a great reminder of what was done when. And great material to pass along to the new owner should you sell and upgrade. Also know how large your fuel tank is, and record your fuel usage. I have an app called Simply Auto that I record all my fuel used. I use the odometer and use the fuel gage as reference only. I reset the odometer to zero on fill ups, and I know I can safely get 200 miles on a tank on around town riding.
Good Luck!!

 

Welcome to the forum from Canada.

 

My good friend, welcome. Good to have you here. There have been many, many discussions on that matter. Feel free to use the search program here.

This is the Welcome Area Only. At the top part of the section are the few HDF Rules that you may want to become familiar with.

On the matter of being new my friend, I would strongly suggest typing into the Internet "Ride Like A Pro Jerry Paladino". And purchases DVD. It will be the most important thing you likely will ever do riding a motorcycle.

Now, for my regular welcome.


G'day mate,

welcome to HDF.

I will be your tour guide. Be sure to read the manual before posting ok mate?

Or we will have discipline you and if you don't "get it" we will need to discipline you biker style.

Here is a gift for you… LOL! “I so funi!”


Now let’s get serious for your orientation. Go down the hall on your left to the 1st room. No, wait. The 1st room on your right. That is where the commissary is.

Then you will see doors marked for the mortuary, skeet shooting, a room where we make fun of In-Jun bikes, and of course we have a ahh, umm, oh yeah a across the hall.

We had a BOMB MAKING room but, well, ahhhhh, 1 of the guys just didn't understand Blasting Caps very well so..... you know.

We have our own pub .

There are several places where you can familiarize your self with the .

So don't be a wall flower watching others . Get involved.

See you around mate. I am going to the commissary now.


**** ON THE SERIOUS SIDE ****
