after reading your sticky thread about starting out on the busa...I realized what I should do, and that is buy a cheap smaller, lighter bike to learn on and then, after 4-5 months sell it, and then I will buy my busa. I have plenty of time to learn (most likely on a 600 or slightly smaller) and I will def take that class and again after I come back if I need to. BTW, I'm 22 so I'm not the typical teenager stereotype wanting to race err'body on the skreet, ya heard?
