Hi all ..

I hope we have some riders in here, cuz I'm new at this and I need all the advice I could get ....

Ok, so I don't have my license yet, but I'm working on it ..

So here's my story:

Very recently I've been "Bitten by the bug" of the motorbike world, I've been somewhat obssessed with bikes, and all I could think about is how nice it would be to ride one ... Here's the catch, I don't know how, I've never been on one, and I know very little about bikes ...

All I need is some tips and tricks about safety riding, maybe some pointers about how to actually drive one, and some general info about bikes.

One more thing, I've been told by some riders that the steps involved in being a rider is very long indeed. Simply getting your bike license does not make you ready for the big toys and the road. Here I got confused, if I can't have on of those fancy bikes and can't drive on the road, then how would I acquire the experience needed to drive one ....


Constructive critisizim, pointers, advice is allways welcomed ... Flamers, haters, and genuine pricks stay the hell away ...

Hi bro, long time no see ....

You know what?? That's the first encouraging talk I've had about this matter, everybody is like "It's hard, it's dangerous, it takes time, a long time"

About the helmet don't worry, here in Bahrain it's not an option ..

Plus, are we talking about the superbikes, or those crappy 250's??

You just have to be careful and as vintage said respect its power..., big bikes are damn quick and its very easy to crash, with a car you can get away with stuff, but on a bike its a different story. What sort of bike are you thinking of getting?

must reliaze that you are unsafe....inlike cars your inside a protecting metal but the bike if way diffrent..

I like bikes looking forward to get one too, and yes always follow the safty sules and stick with it in all cost...

not only wearing helmet...you got elbow pads and knee pads aswell that will protect you as well...

Good luck bro....I wish I could sit with ya but I got one bigg ass man it ain't a pretty picture from behind you know...:tongue:
