Hello all,

I just registered but have been dreaming of Monsters for a long time...  I learned to ride a few years ago but just recently got overtaken by the urge to own and ride my own little piece of Italy.  Took Harley's MSF course to get a little extra seat time and then got my endorsement a few weeks ago.  Can't wait to get out there once I find a Monster I won't cry myself to sleep over if/when I accidentally tip it.  You and I both know it's bound to happen to a beginner. 

welcome to the board!
assuming that you are from brooklyn...there are a bunch of members from that end of NY if i recall correctly.

Welcome to the DMF, congrats on MSF and the endorsement.

Your local board is NYMMC, make sure you check in when you get a chance.

Good luck in your bike search, yes a used one is a good place to start.

I'm actually a Los Angeles local with a pseudo-clever name...

But thanks for that link, I'm going through it right now.
