Cars race down our street in order to avoid a light on the opposite street. A couple of months ago a teen boy was hit by a truck. I am just worried about our safety and the other people on the street. I live in the Houston area. I can provide more details if necessary thanks!
Dude! If you're a responsible upright kinda guy, and a good kid to your parental authority, you're halfway there! Now you have to prove you're capable of riding safe and sane. Do they know you have ridden your friend's bikes? IF you hid this from them, don't tell them now! Take the MSF riding course, get some knowledge and documentation! Find friends, neighbors, co-workers, and relatives who are responsible riders and will be a support group for you when it's time to sit down with the parent. Make no mistake, motorcycles are inherently dangerous! But most accidents can be avoided. Learn to ride. Learn to be afraid. Learn to be aware. Learn not to fool yourself that you won't go 120 mph down the road! You know you want to, and you will. Get smart first. Learn how to go 120..and what to do about it when something goes horribly wrong! Learn about safety gear. Learn how to fall off. There's an old biker saying- (among hundreds!)- it's not IF you fall off, it's WHEN you fall off! Show you're responsible first to yourself, then to others. You put motorcycle knowledge and fear in your brain-pan, you'll have all the good arguments you need. Go for it! Be well! Best!
CONGRATULATIONS! YOU ARE AN IDIOT! Let me explain the ways first. First off, you /cannot/ sterilize a safety pin. There are nooks and crannies in them that even boiling water cannot get to. Second, there are bacteria that can survive in temperatures higher than boiling temp. Second, safety pins are coated in nickel to make them shiny. Nickel can turn your skin green, and you may end up having an allergic reaction to the nickel. Third, you didn't pierce yourself so much as simply tore your skin apart, like driving a knitting needle through a t shirt. Furthermore, piercing guns are cattle markers. Literally, they are used for tagging cattle. The also do not pierce you, the shoot a dull piece of crap metal through you, much like getting shot by an actual gun. Take that crap out of your ear, stop using peroxide on it. Maybe you should do some actual research before you decide that you know things and end up doing stupid things, like shoving a safety pin through your ear and using peroxide on a puncture wound. But, since you've already decided to be an idiot, then proclaim it to the world, you should take the nickel crap out of your ear and either put whatever you're going to be using for jewelry in, or take the nickel crap out of your ear, let it heal up, and get it professionally done. I have no sympathy for self inflicted agonies of the damned, and if you decide to be stupid, I will call you out on your stupidity.
i had the same problem the 18th birthday is what got me a motorcyclealso the sport bikes probaly scares the crap out of themdo you have to have a sport bike iv fell in love with the dual sportsgoing to buy a kawasaki klr650 (once i get the $$) look into that or some standard bikes thell probaly feel better about thatbut if you keep on them you can maybe break them for the gsxthe only reason i dont want a sport bike is because i know good and well ill get that thing up to140 at least and probaly go to jail
try sitting down with them again and be totally open with them, if your trustworthy, not into drugs or drinking under age you should be able to point all that out and say you understand their concern but also explain more people die in auto accidents than on motorcycles, that you could get hit walking accross the street but don't make the mistake I made, my father said if you ever bring a motorcycle home I will throw you out, I tested him, he won but for thye last 33 years I've had a bike I ride a 1400 intruder, just be responsible, your life depends on it. I lost a cousin last summer he was 19 and racing on one of the ninja's he hit a guard rail doing 110 miles an hour and he died very slowly.. and very painfully.. don't play with your life .. again be open and completely honest with them and prove yourself. Good Luck
