.................blah,blah........ there is a part of me that likes the idea of moving up the cc ladder slowly mastering each platform first................blah,blah.....
somebody told vello once that "a good biker is an old biker."
i dont think that we/you need to master each platform, i think its more important to master and curb your own enthusiasm to do reckless things with a motorcycle between your legs.
i went from a falling apart 125cc to a riding to northern france with the blokes 1000cc okay both are old but i try to ride within my limits.
around town the limit is 30+- that extra power of any bike i feel is useful for getting out of potentially dangerous predicaments which if i have taken in what i was supposed to when i was being taught about reading the road i would have forseen approx 200metres before.(hazard perception).
spoke about it before, the police run day long bike safe is something i definitely want to do this year. its good, there is no pass , fail , arrest or bike seizure at the end of the day.
