Hey guys, whats up? I dont have a bike, but ive been wanting a CBR600 for awhile. ive never had a street bike before, so i dont want a big one, i know im gonna lay it over once or twice, so im thinking maybe one with a little rash to begin with

. but i dont know Jack about bikes. Ive been around Hondas for awhile, and know my way around them pretty well, but just the cars, not the bikes. i just thought i could come here and learn a little bit about them before i get one of my own. and anyone in the Sacramento area, hit me up, maybe we can get a car/bike cruise going.

alright, i might do that. but i am looking into a house soon, and you know how THAT is in this area. so money is a bit tight. maybe ill swing up there this weekend and we can chat awhile, ill need a shop to go to when i DO get a bike. I do all my own wrenching, but its good to surround yourself with people who know more about what you want to learn, than you know yourself.

Hi Norcal,
Welcome to the boards. If you are up there in the same area as Limpz, definatly stop by his shop. I'm sure he would be more then happy to help you and edjucate you on bikes. Before you do anything, you need to sign up for a MSF (motorcycle safety foundation) class. You will learn more there in a weekend then you could imagine.
