I have to wait until april 4th to be able to ride.... For those of you who don't know this will be my 1st season and have no experince. So I'm wating on my MSF class that starts on March 31st so I have 19 more days to go until then. I went to my local motorcycle dealer and say at least 30 riders there all talking... I felt so left out, and everyone around here seems to have a bike becuase every where I drive theres a motorcycle taunting me!! I'm going crazy I want ride soooo bad this is like the ultimate tourture!! Anyone else feeling my pain?

Just seems like that cause you want it so bad ya drama queen

Just pay attention in the class and practice what they teach you. There's no way to learn it all in a weekend.

And a word of caution: ride solo for a while or only with someone you trust with your life. Other riders don't know your skills so you gotta use that thing your helmet is sposed to protect.

More Bad news and I feel like a retard right now..... Well I'm stripping the decals off the bike I notice a sticker on the right side that says "salvage". I'm like omg I just paied for a bike I thought was clear and it's salvage! I paied 4,500 and I took out a loan that I still owe 1,900 on to the bank. I never got a bill of sale from the guy becuase he never reg the bike he was a dealer who bouight it off the 1st guy and made 1st guy sign the title and leave the date and such blank foir when ever he sold the bike. I thought nothing of it at the time and I did ask if the bike had clear title and he told me it did. So I called the guy back about it granted that I bought this bike back in november and tell him that he basically lied to me. Well thank god hes taking the bike back and I'll be getting my 4,500 back but now I have no damn bike and I'm in a deep depression. I loved this bike it was diffrent the full carbon the exhust and now I'm bike less and after this will only have 2600 to my name to get another bike with. I could get another loan but I really want an RR but no one in my area is selling and now I have to wait for a good buy and god only knows how long that will take and my msf is at the end of this month. I really wanted go from the msf to the bike but I dont see that happining now...

Good luck finding another bike but you're not gonna find anything you like for $2600 .

That sucks! But if you stop and think, 2 things could have happened with your bike:

#1. Everything would have been fine, couldn't even tell it had a salvage title and the motor was strong and reliable; or
#2. The frame could have been bent and God knows what else and you could have taken it out the first day after your MSF class and wrapped it around a tree.

Something good will come out of it, just be patient. I was in the same position and I got a bad ass bike because I waited for the right bike to come around. Good Luck!
