| I would enjoy your bike first before I worried about changing it's look, get to know it and learn to be able to get the most out of it. If you had to change the look, I would go with a kick ass paint job Welcome to the site you will find a lot of answers to you questions. I would ask right up front, Did you buy some good protective gear when you bought your bike, you should have a good helmet, gloves, jacket, and some decent boots to wear

| Sprocket Pilot ![]() | I wouldn't worry about a paint job just yet. Wait for atleast one full season just in case something happens and you drop it. If you do that after paying for a nice paint job you will be seriously pissed! As far as advice: Obviously take the MSF at first chance. Also put your owners manual next to the toilet so that you have no excuse to not read it. All kinds of information there. Other than that, enjoy and don't push past your comfort level unless you really wanna see up close just how different every piece of gravel in the road really is. Oh yeah, Welcome
