hello! also from NC (Hillsboro, Orange co) and its good to have some fellow riders out there! i swear i see more and more folks on bikes everyday.

my dad started riding in his early 30’s as well. I think it was because he didn’t have much cash and his little brother was doing it, so he felt like he could do it to, and he has ever since. Even better, he gave me the motorcycle bug as well (not that my mom is happy about that)

i’m only 20 but i’m guessing for someone in their 30’s, you have a stable job, maybe even a family and a house and are starting to feel “settled”. settled is not exciting. you’re a grown up with a grown up lifestyle and from what i know of grown ups is that they are bored most of the time. so i think, for you, getting a motorcycle would be a good investment. sure, the initial cost of the bike, equipment and so forth will be a bit expensive for a hobby, but its a hobby that will last a lifetime (my dad’s in his mid-60s now)

and dude I wish I had a Hello Kitty jacket!

hey I just think if you want a cheap beginner bike, go with a used 500r. That’s what I’ve got as my first and I’m super happy to have it. spent only $1200 for my first bike! 500r line is reliable and has lasted a good long time. I’m 20 years old as well, 5’5 (on good days) and 130 lbs and its pretty comfortable. My best friend got a brand spankin new yamaha R6 and boy i was jealous. That thing is pretty! She also pimped it out: lowered, taillight thingy blinks somehow and cordinates with the super cool turn signals, and she put blue lights underneath. however, with all the money she put on that, she sure will be pissed when she drops it and breaks one of the pretty blinky lights.

if you’re worried about not looking feminine enough get a jacket that you can adjust so that the waist is tighter to show of your curves
