Default Semi-New Rider with Semi-New bike.

This will be my 2nd bike. My first was a 96 900RR. The story of that bike can be found on the new riders thread. This is my new bike, a 03 600RR.

anyways, im 18, and dont nag about the MSF course, i paid a month ago, they are full until july 23rd. im NOT.. repeat NOT riding the bike on the streets until then. Lucky for me they teach the MSF course RIGHT next to my appts at the local Community college parking lot. I've sat down and listened to a couple lessons being tought on different weekends, and practiced the motions on a pedal bike. I have been riding the bike so i can get used to the bike's charactoristics and feels on the MSF course parking lot. but nothing over 25mph.

Well, nough said, pics below.















its got the fender eliminator kit. CF accents, Lisence plate relocation kit, the tail light kit so my blinkers are in the brake light, and only 3099 miles!

i got it for the steal of $5,000. He broke his shoulder, was going to make it a track bike but cant now, so i got it for a damn deal!

Seems like a good deal - hope it is.

Remember that it's not "just" a 600 - it'll still kick yer *** if yer not patin attention.

Just repsect it - kinda like guns and computers, they only do what PEOPLE make em do.

Congrats, ride safe.
