I just wanted to add that I just bought myself a 02 gixxer 600. I dads g-f always wanted a streetbike but my dad had talked her into getting a buell blast to learn on. So 3 days after I got my bike we wanted to try to ride. So I figured I would let her since she would let me ride down my street on her bike when I had no permit and she had no insurance. I figured it was the least I could do. So we went to the school parking lot. Parked the bike and placed it on the kick stand. She was a excited she jumped on. Took a few seconds thinking about herself riding on it. Wipped the bike up off the kick stand. Centered it for a second before it proceeded to go down on its other side. Man did that hurt seeing my new baby fall the first time without moving, out of my hands to stop. Minor damage, broken front blinker and scratches in the suzuki decal. so she bought me new decal and blinker but...

WORD to the WISE. Let the female practice on a test bike from a riding class. I will hurt more seeing your bike go down than getting hide for telling her that she is not allowed to drop urs.
