Hey ya Jockey welcome, welcome, me newbie to, yeah I already have a sore clutch wrist from practicing all the slow maneouvering stuff and practicing taking off, oy!!!

Did my p's on friday; my left hand was cayyyning after about 3 hours of slow riding practice.

That slow riding stuff could save you a lot of heartache if you get it down early on, and will make you a much more capable and comfortable rider Do everything you can to avoid "the falls", but be prepared for replacing clutch/brake levers etc if it happens, and if it's going, let it go

I'd recommend doing some reading, and practicing the stuff from your L's course with purpose and focus while you remember it all and you're still new to it all like I still am. Once we're out of that "learners" period it'll probably take more effort to head out to practice when you just wanna "ride".

Yeah I hear ya, that's pretty much all I can do in our area on the bike because the streets aren't really long enough to open her up, but I must say, I got hell frustrated the other Sunday, was the day after we got the bike on Saturday, so you know your hell keen to try out your new baby, anyway all I could do was the slow stuff so got soooooooooooo frustrated, then during the week went up to the industrial area, opened her up a bit and it gave me better control for the slow stuff, so now just going to practice around our area all the slow stuff, I figure, my wrist will strengthen enough which isn't a bad thing because again being a chick strong wrists will give me better control to. Man I really gotta get of this site and do some work, but it is far more fun chatting bike stuff to people then doing dam work.
