New Bike

[Freebird]

Well, not for me but it’s now in my garage.   Ny son Dylan turned 30 two days ago and decided he wants to start riding.   Can’t say that I was really in favor but he’s an adult and makes his own decisions.  So he found a 2024 Ninja 500 with 1684 miles on it in Pittsburgh, PA.   This morning we hooked up the trailer and went after it.   The bike is like brand new with a couple of tasteful upgrades.  At least he’s doing the right things.  Next week or the week after he is signed up for the beginners rider course and won’t be riding it except maybe a couple of short rides here on the country roads around my house.

Great bike!

He is really doing the right thing.  Baby steps on riding and safety.  He is lucky to have you as a mentor for life.  This sounds to me that Don is back on the saddle.  Enjoy the experience of a lifetime with your son.

I remember when I turned 16 my Dad said I could only buy a bike as long as I took a motorcycle safety course. I signed up that spring and over a long weekend we drove non stop on little Suzuki 125 dirt bikes…if I recall correctly. Great skills and information learned. I even got a slight reduction on insurance from taking the course. He will enjoy it. Good luck to him,
