well I mean after the MSF course... so she can see that even a 250 will accelerate quickly and be fun

If he still has it by then. He's talking about stepping up next season.

non-male

but if she's not listening to reason... you can throw that out the window

Gas Man · 09-25-2008, 02:01 PM

But why should she listen to her son?

Because he is an experienced rider.

again that shows a lack of maturity... maturity would recognize that he's an experience rider first... her son second.

but really she should trust HIS opinion above all considering he wouldn't want her to get hurt and would give her a no bullshit pov

Honestly, I don't think she'd actually go through with it. I'd be surprised if she gets any bike.

JTemple,

How the heck did your mom know about the Hayabusa much less wanting one?

Anyway, if she's serious about riding then have her talk with your other riding buddies and have them warn her about hopping on the Busa for a first bike. Make sure she understands that after a few thousand miles under her belt, she can ride whatever she wants, but it's just the beginning portion that she needs to be reasonble with.
