there are some pretty nice bikes at the class!

i guess noone is afraid of laying down their new bike...

Today was the actual eval test portion, some trickier maneuvers we learned today and we ABOUT got away without anybody laying it down.. The stretched and lowered gixxer had some trouble in the tight figure 8/ U-turn area and set it down very gracefully on its sliders

. No damage was done, good for him as it was his buddys bike he let him use

. No pics today too busy concentrating

So everyone there bought their bikes before finishing the class? If I didn't know how to ride properly I wouldn't dare go buy a bike, ride it home or ride it to the class. I eventually want to learn how to ride and my plan is to take a class where they provide the bikes so I don't risk damaging my own.

I'm a short guy so finding a sport bike with a low seat height is pretty hard. The lowest I've seen is the Ninja 250r at 30.2(?) inches. Are there any bikes with something like 29 or even lower?
