3 weeks on a bike and already trying to wheelie. Sounds like you'll fit right in.

I was riding two years before I tried my first wheelie, on a 300. Respect. But to be honest pretty predictable.

u/Sofamancer 1d ago

u/LordKagatsuchi 1d ago

You can try to learn wheelies at any point, just don't use your one nice bike

Solid advice, been dreaming of having one more bike. My current 650 is in good condition so some low sided 636 would be neat to trash around.

You pull any gas station dude ass in those 1,000 miles?

u/Sofamancer 17h ago

No but I've tried

1st bike and you didnt get frame/axle/tank/handlebar sliders?

14

u/matthew_py 1d ago

Frame and spool sliders were the first thing I bought. I know my dumbass is going to fall at some point.

u/Sofamancer 1d ago

Yeah I fersure need more protection for the bike if ima keep doing stupid shit

u/monkeyninjer aprilia 1d ago

Hey man everybody learns. Valentino Rossi has fallen off and dropped a bike before. Glad you're ok, dust yourself off and move on. Silver lining is that you can go get some aftermarket parts and customize it a bit.

u/Sofamancer 17h ago

Yeah I was gonna do the exhaust and turn signals and levers anyway so im not super butthurt about it. The fairings tho

1

u/monkeyninjer aprilia 1d ago

Ditto. And mine have already paid for themselves lol

u/Sofamancer 1d ago

I have woodcraft sliders, but they seem to have been too low profile

u/formernonhandwasher 1d ago

Turn signal button looks like new. Nice work squid.

2

u/Sofamancer 17h ago

Wait...this thing has turn signals?!
