Hi Inga; I am a newbie also . I bought my first bike last OCT.(650cc) . I am 71 yrs young. A month later moved up to a 950cc and now a few months later I ride a Yamaha roadliner (1854cc). Surprizingly the big bike handles much better for me than the smaller ones but I still ride scared. I tip over at stops from time to time and riding over 55 MPH makes me tense. I am going to AMERICADE THIS YEAR BUT TRAILERING THE BIKE FROM PA BECAUSE i DON'T FEEL COMFORTABLE ON THE THRUWAYS WITH SO LITTLE EXPERIENCE,ESPECIALLY WITH MY WIFE ON THE BACK.i AM GRATEFUL TO ALL THE BIKERS i HAVE MET WHO ARE ALWAYS WILLING TO OFFER ADVICE AND OR HELP. wHAT A GREAT GROUP OF PEOPLE. OOPS..caps lock Sorry,I'm not shouting,just a poor typestLOL
