Re: another newbie !!!
Greetings everyone
I manage the M/C safety training program for the Naval Distric Washington DC; as such I'll be surfing all around seeking anything I can find to promote SAFE MOTORCYCLE riding.
We qualify several hundred military riders from all branches each year
If anyone asks I hate HAYBUSAS (don't care if I mispelled it) I just don't think anyone short of a jet fighter test pilot should ride anything that violently fast. I test rode one that went almost verticle on me when I tried to put her on her pipe in third gear at seventy mph; way too scary for the kid.
I've Been around "scoots" since 1960; my first "ride" was a WWII Harley with jockey shift; that seemed made of Krytonite for the beating that old war dog took

Sounds like the Naval District needs to find another safety training program manager. That doesn't sound safe at all. The bike is only as violently fast as you make it.
