Just got your license? You're profile says your 19 and you must have owned that lancer for a couple years now... I'm confused!

Good looking lancer though and nice bike as well. Keep it up

there are two ways (i did #1)

1. skills test at the DMV for full license (i got my permit first by a written test)
or
2. motorcycle safety course (they have them at most colleges for like $200)

bikes are cheap, 3-4k for a beginner bike (250 or 500cc) and 5-6k for a nice 600cc motorcycle

The Ninja 250 looks like a legit bike for a starter. Me and my brother were looking at some, then our mom found out and said we have to move out if we want them... I'm not ready to pay for my own place yet, college bills are crazy enough lol.

edit: Oh yeah, congrats man. Have fun and be safe, theres a lot of idiots out there that will cut you off and stuff like that without even thinking about how dangerous it is.

the 08 ninja 250 is the bike to get; they look stunning and i believe get upwards of 75 mpg !

my parents were like that too, but they didn't make me move out
insurance is only $289 a year for me (liability) so i can afford both until school starts

I doubt my mom would actually kick us out, but we respect her wishes because we care lol. "No bikes under my roof"
