My 20 y.o. daughter had her first ride on a real street bike today. She rode MX when she was younger so not new to riding but never rode a street bike before today. It took her a couple minutes to re-orient to shifting and made her first few turns with her leg out!  laughingdp

She had a blast and is all excited to get her permit now. Will get her signed up for MSF (only way for under 21 to get a permit in CA) and get her up to speed. Rented the R3 from Eagle Rider, went in to get the KTM 390 but it was getting serviced. R3 is actually a perfect little bike to get started on, so it worked out. Hopefully we’ll get to a track day after she gets a few street miles under her belt.

I might have had a s much fun as she did, just watching!

I know, I know. High top Chucks where as close as we got to ankle covering foot ware that morning. I told her to wear boots that covered her ankles and that’s how she turned up. Not ideal for sure.  boo

That will be the next piece of riding kit we get before our next outing.
