  6. Don’t worry. I am taking my time to getting to know her. It’s too easy to go too fast on this beast. I’m practicing my breaking skills. And getting used to the fact that every car out there is basically trying to kill me.

  7. Good! I recently bought a Multistrada 1200 Enduro after 10 years off bikes and I'm having to relearn how to ride the thing, so much power!

  8. Welcome to the forum Hyper Guy.

    I find it astonishing that you can consider this as a first bike. I guess that you took your test and learnt on a riding school bike before buying the Hyper so at least had some time on a powered two wheeler first? How was the coat of insurance for an inexperienced rider on such a machine?

    All power to you, just not to the rear wheel just yet. Glad to hear that you're taking it easy.

  9. Hi, and thank you for the welcome. In Denmark you have to ride a motorcycle and learn the most basic motorcycle skills. But I guess this goes for all countries? I think I had 20 hours on a motorcycle before I ordered the Hyper. It was a leap of faith as I hadn’t test ridden before I bought it. Best decision of my life.

  11. Welcome, you still have a lot to learn so take it easy and enjoy the ride. You'll soon get used to it and be looking for a little more power.
    Stay safe.

  13. Welcome to you. Sounds the you have the right attitude for a new rider and new bike, take it easy, there is a lot to learn and if you keep in mind that every other road user will do the very thing you don't want them to do you will be fine.
