Finally got my motorcycle endorsement!

On last Thursday, I finally did my Motorcycle skills test on my Trail and passed with 1 point! I had pondered doing in on my Magna, but thankfully here in MN there aren't CC restrictions if you use a smaller cc bike (you only get restrictions if you do it on a trike, which is understandable). The Trail helped me get back into the rhythm of riding a motorcycle, and now it helped me obtain another big step in my life. This truly will be a forever bike for me to own

Well done! Ride like they can't see you. Because they can't.

Hard to see anything staring at a phone.

Ride like everyone is actively trying to kill you

Thanks, I know that the treat of getting ran over is high on a motorcycle, even higher on a bike that can't even do 60mph! That's why I always check my mirrors and do an occasional head check to make sure there really isn't anyone coming up by me. The last thing I want to do is get ran over!

Most of the time drivers ain't even lookin. Watch the front tires of cars in the lanes next to you in heavy traffic. It can let you know if the driver is gonna merge into you. I always do an over the shoulder check before changing lanes, drivers here consistently do 55+ in 35-45 zones. They come up fast.

Congrats on passing the MSF! I took my test on the Trail too. It was a great bike to do the course with.

The only way I would get rid of this bike is if they came out with one with a proper HI-LO selector! Also I still have the SSR 125 pitbike I rode as a kid from 2008, so far I have a good record!
