First bike.

New rider here, thought I'd throw my motorcycle up on here for the heck of it. Figured I'd contribute to the sub a bit. Been riding for 2 months now on my permit, already took an MSF course, and taking my license test next week. (For the people who are thinking that an MSF card should get you a license automatically it doesnt work in my case. I took the military MSF course which isn't accredited because politics.)

So...anyone ride around middle Georgia? Don't really know any good spots to go around here yet (just been exploring so far) and it'd be nice to have someone to ride with for a change.

Heh, I picked it up at a convention in Tennessee a month ago. I'm a huge nerd though, play d&d, card games occasionally etc. Lost all sense of shame over it already XD. It did have another piece attached to it that broke off when it got caught on something but I think it looks better without it. Thinking about getting a second one just for the sake of there being two swords.

Not sure what the keychain is, but I'd never recommend having other keys or metal pieces attached to your bike key while you ride. The vibrations and turbulence will leave them scratching things over time. It's a bit unsightly.

Edit: Just food for thought. I left my house key on my bike key on my first bike, over the course of a week or so I realized it was just scratching the hell out of the metal it rubbed against on the top of the triple tree.

Its from a show called Attack on Titan.

I did have a whole mess of keys attached at first but I noticed the vibration thing one of my first few times on the bike, made sure to stop doing that. With the way the sword hangs though its not vibrating/scratching against anything while I ride, if it did I'd be sure to remove it immediately. Thank you for the advice and the concern though, I appreciate it.

Yeah other keys, no good. I just use one of those little rubber keychain things so I've got something to hold on to better with gloves on, and attach the ring with bike key and rubber fob dealie to my house and car keys with a carabiner. Easy detaching, no scratching, and a light bike key.
