Just met a young guy .. never been on a bike. A local dealership convinced him to buy a 155 hp GSXR 750 as a first bike. He had to take a learning to ride course before taking it out of his garage. Insanity...

Grats! Labor Day weekend, I yanked the forks off of mine... & upgraded the springs, & installed new damping rods & cartridge emulators. Gotta say, its an improvement... but, I dont think I'll realize how MUCH, until I do the rear shock, too...
