Hello Ladies!

I'm going to put a down payment on a 2009 Kawasaki ninja 250R hopefully tomorrow, this will be my first bike I'm so excited! .. only part that sucks is I have to wait until April to pick it up and ride. I was wondering if anyone has any tips for a new female rider, also if anyone is in the area and wants to hook up to ride let me know!

Tip

My first bike was a brand new Yamaha V-Star 1100. This was a big bike! A lot of people will say that certain bikes are good to start with, but I think that you have to be ready to take your time and learn the bike. If you do any bike can be a good starter. Remember you you just spent a lot of money. I bought my first bike brand new and had to have a buddy ride it home. I started down my street, and after a few days i went around the block. I just took it slow. When i felt comfortable riding it around my neighborhood, i took a motorcycle saftey course. After a a year and a half i got sick of the beast and ended up getting my zx6. I sold the v-star to a kid who blew off my advise and within a mounth he totaled it. I still see the kid at school and he looks the other way every time i see him......dum ass! I think by now you get the point. There are people who think they can ride and those who really can.....take your time.
