Billabongi · 08-21-2006, 01:15 PM

I am pretty sore from about 12 hours of riding over 2 days lol but I did it I passed! It was my first time ever riding on a bike "ridden as a passenger before but never controlled one." I ended up finishing 2nd in our evals im excited!

Now its time to go find me a m50!

You're doing it right!!!

Where abouts do you live?

Xerses · 08-21-2006, 02:13 PM

Congratulations! Well done. You will love the M50 as a first ride.

Thanks for the kind remarks guys! I live in tampa, florida and should be looking for my M50 within the next 2 weeks or so.

Im very excited I am just hoping I can find a good dealer around here that wont try to screw me

Congratulations.

I know a good dealer on this coast, in Titusville. Let me know if you're interested.

Maybe try to PM Pinhy (Doug). He rides an M50 and lives in Tampa. He occasionally checks into this site still.

Good luck.

Congrats on your MSF, and good luck in your bike search

Congrats, Billa!

And yes, the M is a great bike to learn on...er...well I have nothing to compare it to...but I'm basing my opinion on the fact that I have not dropped it yet (dropping bikes seems to be a curse that follows women), it doesn't scare me, and I'm quickly trying different types of road surfaces because I know this bike will handle well.

I could live 5 lifetimes and Central Florida would still be under road construction! So the other day on the way to the dealer, I went over several patched areas of road, swerving traffic lanes, uneven pavement between lanes, and had to make a left turn in front of traffic right onto gravel and sand...MC handled like a champ...my a$$ on the other hand, was begging for mercy

Good job brother!

Billabongi · 08-22-2006, 01:47 PM

Thanks again for all the kind words. My goal is defintly to get an m50 not only is the bike impossible to beat for the price, it looks awesome and the best part you guys here at the forum are awesome as well!

Petcop, maybe once I get the m50 and get some expeirence riding it we can meet up sometime and go for a ride. I think theres a few people in tampa as well . Trust me between tampa and orlando if there is ever a time when there isnt construction going on, I know the world is not right! 275, 4 & 75 all have construction right now I cant get around it!

pssst, Billa....

speaking from experience, the best time to go on I-4 is RIGHT before a hurricane...lordy I thought I had poofed into the twilight zone....was working in Daytona at the time, and drove all the way home without meeting a soul...I was SO itching to see just how fast my car would go....hehe....so imagine how fun on a bike!
