Welcome

Read the stickies in the new rider section before you decide on a bike. Starting small is the way to go.

Glad to see you're taking the MSF course right off the bat. That should really help you get started in the right direction.

Welcome.

Hey thanks guys! I have pretty much have spent the last few days reading threads on this site, expecially on new beginners.. At first I just wanted to get a learners permit, get the bike and learn myself, but after reading here I decided to take the MSF courses.. Man that classroom session was so BORING! Haha but the riding this weekend will be alot better! So anybody know of a bike in the 3-5 range?? I have looked on Craigs list and Autotrader and have found quite a few.. But word of mouth might be good also..
