Just wanted to introduce myself. I took and passed the MSF class this weekend and am now shopping for a bike. I have been lurking and enjoying this forum and great deal and figured it was time to say hi and stick around

be sure to spend the money on a high quality mesh jacket because cheap ones tend to rip automatically on asphault
also don't forget boots
