Want to hear a good one.
A lady I work with (40ish) decided to get a motorcycle. She had one in her 20’s. She went to cycle school. 3 weeks ago she took delivery of her 883cc Sportster. She no sooner took delivery of it before she lost control in her driveway, crossed the street and hit a chain link fence shattering her right hand and wrist.
She was trying to ride a bike that was to big for a beginner.
A beginner, no matter what courses they have taken, needs to be on a 250CC or, at most, a 500CC. It is hard to find a 250CC these days but Honda makes one.
