Well I passed my MC test today, I was scared that i wasnt going to pass because i put my foot down 2x and i killed it once but they said i did extreamly well, and handled the bike well i used a little suzuki 250 very small bike the only downfall of the bike is the throttle was very jumpy, you cant roll into the rpm's it would just hop up the rpms, but today i am going to be taking my bike to des moines on a nice long ride 1hr 30 min or so. should have everything all set on the bike and ready for the trip, now i need to do is look for a larger bike, i went on a 50 mile ride last night with a friend (illigaly) and he has a honda shadow sprit with aftermarket pipes and i like the way that bike sits for the ride... but i guess i just need to find a larger bike

louder is over rated. It maybe cool for a short ride but after a day on the road your ears will hate you.

That awesome, I just got my permit and now I am scheduled for by BRC class the end of the month. If I pass that I get my license within 120 days. I've been looking at bikes for the last few days and I'm thinking of getting either a 550 or a 750.

yes, this bike is a 750 it was a 800 but the motor blew and i the only replacement i could get was a 750 it has plenty of zip to it, its just the bike itself is too small for me it seems
