Cool Lesson Learned On A Honda 954

Hello everyone!!

i would like to share a little experience for all of you new bikers like myself.(noob) Ill tell you about the mistakes i made so that you can learn from them and not make the sameones i did .

Riding was always something that caught my eye but i was to afraid afriad of the risk i would be taking and the taughts of my family. Behind my wives back one day i went out and got one . She was upset for a while lol but she got over it sooner than i taught. The thing is i bought the bike but did not know one thing about it not even how to trun it on yes i was doing bad. The seller had to drive it home for me. He made it look so easy so of coause i wanted to act my part and try it out my self. Dumb move i must say.

While everyone was out the next day i wanted to be heman and drive the bike! I got on it first time started the bike no safety gear just my strong will..i knew the out come before i even started the bike eaither i live or die. The seller of the bike give me a 10mins lesson on how to ride a bike. Well i figured hey if he could speak it in 10 i could do it in 5. I got on the bike held the clutch in started the bike held the front breaks kick down in first and i slowly let the clutch out and because i was in such fear by accient i throttled the bike and i ran along side the wall in the back yard the left side was the side of impact. For some reason i would let the throttle go trying to stop the bike bad move! even after impact i still wouldnt let go finally the bike managed to get away from me. I was lucky got away with a few scrapes and bruses my face, my forearm, my shoulder, and my leg all on the left side.

Im going now but before i go ill tell you if u are planing on buying a bike in the future do some research and know what u are getting your self into TRUST ME!!! So yea now that youve read this if u want to know how my bike an i are doing you can pm me here. Thanks for your time
