I have been licensed and driving since I was 17, Sold my bike about 6 yrs ago. I have been kicking myself ever since. But now, I found a much more powerful one that i am picking up either this or next weekend as the deal is sealed.

Flama it truly is amazing to ride motorcycle. Hard to explain really. But if you haven't ever, please please please start with a very small one. Get experience, learn how it behaves and after a season or two, slowly move up and only a little at a time.

A CBR900RR is fully capable of a top speed of 300km/h - and getting you there faster than you can imagine so alot of responsibility is in order. see multiple youtube vids for that.

Very much looking forward to it. I dont think i will be home much this season LOL

When I go pick it up ( fingers crossed our schedules jive for this Friday) I will fire up a bunch of photos.

If I had the cash to blow (which I don't), this would be what it would be for.

Exactly!

I rode snowmobile for years back home now THAT is fun. Especially climbing up a 70- 80 degree incline full throttle and ending up about 1000-2000 meters up the side of a cliff lol It hits you when you stand on one side of the running boards so you dont flip it when you turn back down and see just how far up you are.

good times in the mountains back home in northern NL.

But this being NS, Bikes are better here and the can am just dont compare in fun to a sportbike.

Just don't be one of those retards going zoom zoom on the 102 at 4am going 250 clicks. Do the 103 or 101 where I can't hear you

I shed no tears when I hear of "reckless" people scrambling their brains inside their helemts after they hit the wall.

I wouldn't speed anywhere in or near the city. Instant death with drivers here to contend with. Unlike younger people, I dont have anything to prove.

I will be keeping it to speed limits and if I wanna giver a little bit, it will be far away from here on a back road when there's little to no traffic in sight.

I already have a heads up on a few guys to ride with, all are newly licensed and they don't screw around at all. So I am in.

My helmet to match!
