Hiya!!!
I bought myself a motorcycle!!!! I have been waiting for this for YEARS!!!! I've wanted one ever since I saw my grandpa with his motorcycle and I always saw cool motorcycles riding around everywhere. My parents said no motorcycles as long as I lived under their roof...so now that I finally moved out, I went and bought myself a motorcycle as a 21st birthday present to myself :D
I had done plenty of research on what kinda bike I wanted, and I had come across the CFMoto 450SS...and it was just what I wanted! All the nice tech I wanted and some great features for the price...so the day after my birthday my girlfriend drove me an hour to the closest CFMoto dealership, and I bought it!!!
My buddy Jacob also got off work early, and rode his bike (a KTM 390 Duke) an hour to the dealership to join me on my maiden ride home!! There is a 600 mile break-in period, so I couldn't go over 4k RPM for the first 300 miles...(and then no more than 6k RPM for the other 300 miles. I'm currently 150 miles from the end of the break-in as of writing!!!)which meant I couldn't really go too fast...about 55-60 mph at max...
Since getting it home, I have rode it literally every day since!!! To work everyday, as well as some extra riding after work with my friend Jacob. We drove a bit out to some falls...
And also out a few hours through some windy country roads to a very rural town!!! That one was especially fun due to the curves :3
I also threw on a tail tidy, as well as a new exhaust!! It looks and sounds so much better already!!!! (it is also quite loud lol)
Hopefully everything goes all good with the break-in period, and I can continue to have lots of fun with it and stay safe :)
