Pretty much a first bike. I did a little dirtbike way back when (20 years ago) I'm pretty sure that doesn't count anymore.

Edit: Damn that makes me feel old.

Yeah I know. Everything I've read says that it's pretty friendly to ride.

Just be careful. I scare the s**t out of myself on 600cc bikes near every time I ride one.

I hear ya. It's a V-twin too though so it'll have a broader more predictable powerband than the inline 4s. We'll see though. Definitely gonna take baby steps.

V-Twins are torque monsters though so keep that front wheel down

The bike is here... and it scares me.

Baby steps. I'm just puttering around my driveway trying to get used to the clutch but boy that thing is ready to leave once you let it out.
