Foxie.
I dated a guy who had a 600 cbr and he used to drive me around on it adn i loved it. I asked him to teahc me to drive and he would ..pretend to to put it nicely. he would only tell me step by step waht to do.... and never let me try more than once a month. BUT he said he wanted me to learn. He told me if i bought a bike i had to get a 250 ninja or a 125 aprillia. Mind you i knew absolutely nothing about bikes...

anyway we broke up and i realized that i missed his bike more than i missed him so i got my license and bought an r6.At the time we werent even talking so he didnt know about it till one of his friends saw me on it. Funny thing is ...now i drive a better bike than him and i know more about it than he does. Hes pissed and so are his firends (who had like 250 ninjas.) HAHA...

I think that would **** me off too and make me try even harder to be better than him......don't tell a girl what she cannot do, cuz if you do she will probably try her hardest to do it just despite you

exactly. it was quite a feeling of accomplishment to get my license ...esp since i had ot do it on my own since we were already broken up and no longer on speaking terms. He found out about it a lot sooner than i would ahve liked...i think i only had my bike just over a month when he did.

NICE!! - I LOVE Chevelles!!! my first car was a 1969 malibu 307- then I graduated into a 1968 convertible SS 396!!! I had that car 13 years !! gotta love the old ones! only did like low 13's in the 1/4

I never really liked bikes when I dated a guy that had one. I thought all the guys that rode em were maniacs! He wanted me to ride so bad and I told him he was CRAZY I was never gettin on that thing. but he persisted and he broke me in right - and I LOVED it! long after we broke up I wanted to get one - so I took the course to see if I could actually do it on my own and that was it - but I waited almost 2 years after I got my license to actually afford and get a bike of my own - I couldn't be happier w/ my decision. I have met SO many nice people and made so many new friends having a motorcycle it is amazing!

GIRL POWER!!

As long as they take it easy with her in the beginning and don't scare the crap outta her she will see it is not so bad and may even enjoy it more each time!!
good luck with her!
