I'm learning to ride. Hubby bought me a Yamaha V-Star 1100 Custom w/ lowering kit, Cobra pipes and jet pack year before last. She was actually the original "Rosie". I was comfortable on it height/balance wise but I soon discovered I needed something I could start out slow with. There was no "start out slow" on that bike. You open the throttle and it WENT lol. Soo, as bad as I hated to do it, I had to trade it in for a lil bike to learn on. I got a brand new '09 Yamaha V-Star 250 (sorry 2ndGenz, no more Viragos). I really enjoy riding it and hopefully, when I feel more experienced, I can trade up and get me something bigger and nicer. For now I'll be content to get my cool points in "Rosalee", my 'maro.
