Hi! New rider here. Just wanted to show of my new to me little cb. Riding is fun.

Always happy to get any and all advice from the veterans.

It's not "if" you crash it's "when", and watch your chain tension, chains stretch, if you let it get too loose it's bad... If its too tight it's also bad.

Sometimes you will magically cease to exist to other road users, usually when you're cornering or on a roundabout, I don't know how I manage to become invisible, but it's a skill you'll end up with as well.
