Pete, that was mean, confusing FalconFive-O with the other whats-his-name. Couldn't possibly be the same person. This guy has some class.

SoCalBusa, if you have to get a Busa as your first bike, get another beater bike to learn motorcycling (if you've never ridden motorcycles). I remember the first time I got on a streetbike and tried to whip it around like I would a bicycle - needless to say, I dropped it a couple times. A beater bike can be had for $500 or so, and you can experiment all you want without worrying about dropping it or whatever. When you're not worried about a drop that could cost you $1000+, you'll be more likely to try more difficult maneuvers to learn better skills.
