Spent a few weeks on a borrowed GSXR 600. At the time, someone I knew had 4 bikes and wanted me to get into riding so bad, he let me borrow a practically new bike (800 miles). After a few weeks I decided it wasn't the best idea to learn on a borrowed $9K bike, so I returned it. Thinking back it wasn't a good idea to start on a SS PERIOD. Took the MSF Class. Few months later I picked up a used 91 Honda F2. Rode that for a bit and ended up selling it...got an offer I couldn't refuse. Couple of months later I bought a brand new 05 GSXR 600.
Attached a pic of the F2 and the GSXR when I first got it. Damn I miss the way it looked with the stock plastics.
Before you all ask about the girl with the tig bits. She came for a car photoshoot, photog saw the bike and asked to snap some pics. I said sure!
