  1. Hi All, this site looks great. So, I'm sort of a newbie biker I guess. I passed my test around 7 yrs ago, bougt a bike, (1997 xvs650) but never really rode much at all afterwards, time, work, family... loads of excuses for not doing something I've always really fancied: semi laid the bike up, but started it regularly and rode round the carpark to stop anything sticking but that's about it.... sounds crazy, embarrassing. I've still got my bike and really want to get on it this Summer. Might try and get a couple of refresher lessons, it does feel big and heavy, I'm only a little bloke and my confidence is not where it needs to be. A mate of mine just told me to go out and ride on my own.. and practice: trouble is I took my test back then on a 125, (never owned a bike) bought a 33bhp restricted 650 and found it to be very different. Will get there and I look forward to reading from and posting on this site. Best wishes Wayne
