I brought a motorbike, yeah!!! So happy :-)
Just a little one. Kind of ugly one, truth be told. But it's my motorbike yeah!!! So happy!
I didn't even test drive it. The mechanic said it was alright... I will have to get up at 5am and learn to ride it on the roads (in the right lane at the right speed) when the cars aren't around and then work from there. It's really hilly some parts around here with those curved high top roads about the place... And we have the steepest street in the world, even (or so they tell us).
I got a really good deal on it because he just wanted some cash before christmas. And because he's got a car and I think he got tired of how much it costs to keep it registered and so on. I got a manual and a basic tool-kit. I'm going to me one of these and learn how to adjust the chain:
(actually a 1/2" one for the axle wrench and a 3/8" one for everything else)
He said it can be easiest to give it a kick-start when it's cold. I guess I'll figure it out...
So happy :-)
