So does everyone just follow The Secret Life of El Ninja, or are there other books on the subject? And, did all of you already have a motorcycle or if you purchased one, what did you purchase and how much was it?
Just trying to figure out the feasibility of all of this. Oh yeah, did you go and get the motorcycle rating for your DL or do you worry about it?

I have that one on my bike. The torque - speed curves they sent with the motor go to 6000 rpm. Someone wrote once before to keep them below 5500 unless special modifications are made.
