Hello Everyone!
Hi everybody, I'm werro. I'm 16 years old and just bought my first scooter instead of my first car. I got a red Buddy 125 earlier today and I've already put 50 miles on it, it's tons more fun than driving a car. I'll probably be around the forum a lot but I tend to lurk so I might not be very active in conversations. Hope to get to know most of you!

Of course, I didn't leave the dealership without a helmet (full face visor) and I have a motorcycle jacket in the mail.Howardr wrote:Welcome Werro! Enjoy the group.

If you have a motorcycle training course anywhere around, you may want to check into it. The information they give you can prove to be invaluable in keeping upright and avoiding/dealing with cars & other obsticles/dangers on the road.
Also, you might check out the book Proficient Motorcycling. Awesome book, with lots of really helpful info.
At any rate, have fun and ride safe--I don't think you will get any disagreement on this site with your comment about scooters being more fun to ride than cars are to drive!
