    I have the same experience as many of the others (45 yrs of dirt bikes, crotch rockets, and now a cruiser), and I agree with all of the above (get a good helmet, take a class, etc.). Also, if you aren't already used to it, force yourself to learn to hit the front brake hard to enough to just about lock up the wheel. It's way more natural to stomp on the rear but you won't get anywhere near the stopping ability. And FWIW, I decided awhile back that I would rather risk a speeding ticket here in AZ and get the heck away from traffic wherever possible. Too many tailgaters and/or texters out there these days.

    Agreed! Get the hell away from all the cars and keep your eyes peeled at every intersection big or small!

  2. Definitely take a class, wear a helmet, and watch for idiots and animals! I imagine traffic is much lighter in Knoxville than here in phx!

     

    a side note, coming from a moto/mtb background you may enjoy a better handling bike rather than a big wheel bagger, something like a newer low rider s or st, dyna, or a bagger setup right (performance bagger)
