Hey Kate, I'm trying to get a Biker Kiss Rally going...so many of us can meet and ride. So far no luck with blogging or forums....Do you have any suggestions?
Good for your! The 883 is a great bike. I have the 1200. I would highly recommend practicing hard braking with the front brake as much as you can. All 4 fingers. Once you get that add using the rear at the same time. Practice your slow turns too. All of this will help you and you new bike to become friends with each other sooner and give the confidence when the (oh shi t) happen on the road. Best

just completed the Safety course and got licensed.
Always been a passenger, never a driver.
Purchased a sweet HD 2009 883 Sporty.
Will I regret this? Is it hard to learn on?
