I do agree to this. But as I am the impatient type I will prob get a 600 and be very responsible.

Again, I learned how to drive a 450hp Viper when I was 15....in the winter. No joke and continued through the summer. 17 i was taking it to school. I know A LOT about responsibility and how to learn/adapt quickly.

Don't worry, I am taking in EVERYTHING you guys say. From the good, to the bad. Each has their own opinion and when it comes down to it, I will remember each.

I am NOT planning on getting the bike and going straight to the hwy. Parking lots first then gradually upgrade.
