Damn Dlit, what's your wife, like 4'9" and 80lbs?

I want wheelie pics next time.

I'm not sure either. There was a lowered one by one of the custom bike shops down in Daytona, and it appeared to be lowered all around, but not sure (it was just LOW, that's for certain

)

But it looks like it fits her great!!! So happy for her!

Looks good. My friend Dean teaches the basic course and asked me if I wanted to teach. It would be fun, but I have no patience. Learned that when I tried to teach people how to drive a stick-shift. Dean says his two biggest problems are teaching how to use the clutch and how to keep new riders from looking just ten feet in front of the bike. I thought it would be turning.

Just kidding. Here is my 1st time riding a bike. And that stayed my normal gear for about a month...

The bike looks great. Now I want one to throw around up there at the Gap.

I was the same way when I first started. It wasn't uncommon for me to rock the t-shirt and shorts. I was an idiot. But she has me and I won't let her go on rides with anything less than her jacket, helmet, gloves, jeans and the boots she was wearing in the pics.

I'm hoping by the end of this coming week we'll be on the open roads.

Great pics bro...that little Ninja looks kick ass ! Back in the 80's I was looking at the Ninja 250 for my first bike.....they've really come a long ways !
Be easy on her ....keep it fun and you'll be riding together for years to come !
