should i sell my F2?
so about a month and a half ago i got a CBR600F2.
the thing is fun as hell to ride, i've only ridden it about two hours total, but it's so much fun.
the problem is exactly that tho, i've ridden it 2 hours in almost 2 months. it just sits all day, i have no way to get it to a spot, and i can't do idle wheelies yet so i'm not even gonna chance practicing on my street, to risky for anyone's good.
i could prolly get 1000-1500 for it right now, which could land me a NICE *** guitar(playing guitar replaced stunting for me, i do about as much as i used to ride, if not more) and a lil extra $$ to keep saving for another big bike when the time is right.
but i'm starting to think it's to early, i know i have the ablilities to pick **** up on it, prolly pretty quick too, but i can't ever get out anywhere.
maybe once i get a liscense (so i could truck the ****** to a spot) than it'd be a better time....
does that sound crazy to anyone else?

Re: should i sell my F2?
How old are you?
You can get your motorcycle license in most states at 15 (granted, it only allows you to ride up to like a 500cc at that age, but I never had a cop say anything to me about that when I had my r6).

Re: should i sell my F2?
in michigan you aren't allowed a motorcycle endorsement until you have a level 2 license.
to get a level 2, you need to pass level 1 drivers training (about 6 weeks), then take level 2, then you must wait 180 days and then take your road test, afterwhich you'll be giving a level two.
then you still gotta take the MSF course...
so, basicaly, i'd be paying $345 to get my **** about 2 months before i turn 18.
when you turn 18, it's pretty much 45 bucks and my road test and the liscense is mine.

wow, thats alot of stuff for a mc license. I got my full motorcycle license when i was 14 hehe. Well actually all I had to do was take a written test when I was 14, then they gave me my license with a restriction. I could only ride a bike that was under 300 cc's or something like that. Then when I turned 16, I just went to the courthouse and got the restriction tooken off...Alabama rocks!
