Newbie saying HELLO from SF, CA!
Just wanted to introduce myself to everyone here @ ninjette.org. My name is Dino from San Francisco, CA. I've always been a big fan of motorcycles and I finally decided after living on this planet for 38 years that it was time to get one. I never rode before, took the MSF training class 2 weeks ago, bought a 2006 EX250 for $500 bucks on the Monday following, and got my temporary M1 endorsement on Wednesday. Took the bike up HWY 1 through Half Moon Bay and really felt bad for not knowing about 'the wave' and acknowledging the other riders (I wish someone would've clued me in about it). Well anyways, now I know... it's been 8 days since and I've already ridden over 200 miles (last 2 days have been ugly/raining). I registered to learn more about the bike and do some DIY stuff. Already had to replace the worn rear brake pads with some EBC organics and looking to replace the tires with some Pirelli Sport Demons (the front is worn - Dunlop stock tire. And the rear is actually decent but a Cheng Shin tire). Anyways, HELLO!

Welcome fellow Bay Area member
If your walking down the side walk and a fellow walker waves at you do you. A. Wave back because its common politeness B. Do nothing and wonder what that was all about C. Flip them the bird because obviously they are an Asshole. |
