    Default Rode my first bike w/o training wheels

    Seriously though. I had bought a 94 Suzuki Katana 600 from an IA member a few weeks ago. It had some problems. I fixed it and my stepdad was riding it since I hadn't ever rode one, well, he broke it. I fixed it last night, after waiting on the parts to come in the mail, and rode it for the first time. I have been out in my neigborhood riding around on and off for most of the day. I am so stoked, this think kicks ass.

    Later.

    I know, I am so proud of myself. I feel like a little kid that just got his first bike.

    QD, that isn't what this is, I will delete that part out of my original post to settle that.

    BuellX1, I actually traded my jeep cherokee for this bike a few weeks ago. I thought I would be able to get the money up in time, but it just isn't happening, so.....

    Just to clarify further. I got the jeep cherokee by trading my 87 GTI for it, which I got in a trade for my toolbox.

    I had each one of the above for about 2 weeks each. I though I would be able to pull it off in time, guess I was wrong. It was also done based on a lot of people pming me saying that they 'wanted' this and that and they would be coming to get it. I probably lost almost 500 in sales because they didn't ever come. That is all I would have needed to fix my problems.

    I know what you are saying but I traded the first car for a jeep on 33's that was fun because I was able to take it on the trails behind my house why I have no license. If you realize too, everytime I traded, in my opinion, I at least traded for something with more value each time. I am not in dept as of now, I just don't have the money to get my license back. Not really dept though.
