Default yay!! finally got a bike

ok, well, i've actually had it about a month and a half now, but i havent been here in a while

anyways, its a 94 Katana, yeah, its a Katana, but hey, you gotta learn on something, right? it sure as hell beats going out and buying a brand new bike and smashin it all up right off the bat.

anyways, here she is

Looks like a good learner bike. You won't have to worry about it getting messed up

Good starter piece.

Be glad you're not the tool that bought a shiny R1, forgot to put his feet down, and tipped it over twice in 10 minutes.

Nice. Another addition to the Honda-Tech Southeast Riding Club? Hehehe

I'm picking up an R6 or an RR in 3 weeks. Still battling over the two. No one has a new R6 around here where I can test ride? I've been up and down the 15,000RPM redline on the RR, that thing is fooking awesome!

Sam, we'll definitely have to make a Honda-Tech Motorcycle Meet in the near future.

Nice bike man. Mines got purple wheels too! So if people try to hate, just tell them lots of people roll like that...then ask them where their bike is!

Glad to see that some people have a level head on their shoulders and don't let their egos get the best of them. Good decision Turbo Sam

Best first bike is a nice used one...as long as its in safe operating condition. Dump it, trash it, then sell it to a friend to learn on hahaha.
