    Red face New (kinda) in Watertown!

    Hey!

    I'm not technically new as my first post to the forum was in January, but I haven't been on since. I feel like that qualifies me

    I just fixed my bike from the status of a glorified paperweight with a bit of help and now I'm looking to ride! Two slight problems are that I have a 250, so I don't like to play on the highway. My bike is also a cruiser, and I know some sport people don't like to play with us I'm hoping that I'll be able to find some NESR rides to fit. I'm also keen on learning everything I can on maintenance and repairs.

    Thanks to everyone who's helped me out so far, and here's to new friends!

    Actually, it was Ted that personally helped me get my bike back and running. LOVE them over there!

    I don't think ANYONE on NESR has a problem with starting with a small bike and learning to ride proficiently. Don't knock your own ride regardless of size. Learning on a bike you can repair yourself "cheaply" pays down the road. You sound as though you have an actual brain in your head. My .o2. Do a track day
    Oh, and

    You won't get any shit for riding a 250... but rather because it's a Hyosung.

    p.s. -

    I'm already getting crap for riding the Hyosung. I can't find parts for it anywhere!

    Everyone is invading my turf! Gonna have to start peeing on everything again. Anytime anyone near waltham wants to go for a ride, even if for a short time, shoot me a pm. Specially the lady on the hyo....hyo-whatever.

    Aimy, was it you over at the shop while I was over there not too long ago? I think I was getting Pazzos for my Husky or something for the ZRX... if so (or even if not), welcome to NESR. I just rem. Ted leaving when I was customizing my Pazzos to help get a bike running, figured it was you.
