I text at stop signs and red lights. Actually driving, no. I cant drive, shift, and text. That's over working myself, and I don't like that.

Nice looking bike! Have fun and be careful. Another 'wear the helmet' person here. And please also wear long pants. Makes me crazy to see people on any motorcycle in shorts. Skin is fragile.

unless it's the proper type of leather, it's not gonna matter.

I've never worn shorts, and I only texted while in motion once... Seriously, only one time... It sucked trying to corner, change gears, and concentrate on both the phone and the road, so I vowed to never do so again... Now, if I text, I pull over... Remember my trip to VA goalie? I stopped like fifteen times to text you and the other guy...

Carb should be getting brought to a shop in the next week or 2. If they cant rebuild it for under a c-note, Ill be ordering a new one. Then some gas treatment, fresh gas, and I should be good to go.

Great looking bike. I think the shadow would have been better for a guy my size. Small engine carbs. are not as hard as they look to rebuild. It would definitely be worth your while to learn.

Thank you. I kinda liked the shadow he was selling better, but I still need to learn to ride. A 250 is a good start. lmao
