Re: first bike

take all the plastics off except the tank and the tail and put a cage on it.

Brand new 600rr never rode a bike before havent even picked it up yet and your here?
Do you know how bad that sounds?

Re: first bike

put it in the back of your garage and leave it there and go buy some old f4i or 636 to stunt and save your money

Re: first bike

I got a tip for ya.

park that new bike when you get it home and go get a $2500 one to learn how to ride. Not to be hating on you but your first bike wont last long if you got a pair and try to ride it at the same speeds your freinds do.
go find a empty parking lot and play around till you get used to how it feels to hang off the side around turns and how it stops and starts.
Just go play around with it and dont worry about droping it thats what ins. is for $500 you get anther bike.

Re: first bike

You should sign up for an MSF BasicRider course. And get some frame sliders.
