I figure this was a good time to ask tons of questions.
If you disagree with me joining for this, then don't post.

First question:
What all do I need to know about bikes. I'm a girl aching to ride, but know jack about sport bikes- and I'm hoping that you all can help me fix that. As far as I know- a friend suggested starting with a used bike first, and preferably a yzf700r. I'm hoping I can get started on my track towards a new bike soon, and I'd like a jump start on learning.

Please and Thanks
[A]

If that's what you want to call it- then so be it.
I get pretty bad when I see them drive by.
But I think I'm more of a 'speed whore' or 'adrenaline junkie'.
Seeing as I street race as well.

your best bet would be too take a motorcycle safty course
get a small used cheap ass bike
then go somewhere and practice

Yea, I was planning on it. But I figured I could get advice from people who may ride on a regular basis- advice that they don't give in the safety course.
