Bike: 1998 Carby 900SS

Ardberg, I'm not Scottish, so I have no reason to be biased, but if you live in Greenock you are about 15 minutes away from some of the best motorcycling roads in the world.

Ducbird is right...for someone who comes to bike riding from car driving, the road awareness skills are very useful, and will allow you to avoid many dangers. But there are different skills you need on a bike and some of them are opposite to what you already know. These you need to learn to avoid the rest of the dangers!

Your basic point is correct, though...it is possible to ride a Desmosedici RR as gently and quietly as any 125.
