When are you no longer a beginner on a motorcycle?

@Birdbox1986 lots of different places, mainly riding to and from work with lots of detours

@ShenaniganFoodie she yours?

@Justafantasy close friend

@ShenaniganFoodie I watch Sarah Lezitow on YouTube. That girl is crazy good on a 🏍

@TheOneyouwerewarnedabout I want to learn to drift, was told not to do it on my current bike

@TheOneyouwerewarnedabout looking good where are you? We don't have graduated bike license hereI've got a CRF 450 RL and the 10 previously mentioned. The CRF is way fussier about gear selection and being at the right revs but it's a blast to go bombing the corners in industrial areas when no one is around. I can never recommend a liter bike as everything is so damn 🫰 expensive from purchase to fuel to tires wearing out and insurance. I'll probably never not own one now though

@Justafantasy my young fellas got the CRF250. goes alright.
i like the forward position of the sports bike. i can use my arms to support my weight for my lower back. i sit too square on his bike.

@TheOneyouwerewarnedabout try a naked before going for the CBR. I find I'm to bent over on a sport bike, roommate has a CB 750 hornet and it's a way better all purpose bike then mine. Doesn't scream at you to go faster but it's plenty capable of going fast. Fuel mileage that's pretty amazing etc

@Justafantasy when you do it automatically without thinking?

@GoFish ...I ride without thinking about it most of the time, it's getting the refinement and skills I still need to work on

@Justafantasy oh ok
