I keep toying with the idea of taking lessons and then buying a bike for my mid life crisis.
Probably less dangerous than riding a 20-something.
That said, I watched a guy in the lane next to me slam into and then under the back of a dump truck on his bike just yesterday. He crawled out from underneath it and didn't appear to be injured but I swear I don't know how. Scared the hell out of me. I see stuff like that and I start rethinking the 20-something.

I'm telling you dude, you need to write an autobiography. Grats on the new bike. I rode mine not to long ago and driving on the streets with it was intense.
People just don't see me.

What is a twenty something?
I started out small and worked my way up. I think a 250 is a good starter bike. I'm smiling and driving. It is flat out fun. A woman on a bike is just irresistibly attractive. I bought a 2012 Diablo Red Street Triple R. 
I really like the look and performance of Triumph. You can buy a used bike and save tons of money, Swirly. I have to pay someone to work on mine. That is why I buy new, too. I cant unscrew anything without having extra bolts when Im done.
Im reading the futzing manual on this bike, though.

I started riding a Honda Trail 70cc when I was 10 and just kept going up, my dad started trail riding back in the early 60s so we were out a lot.

Sounds like fun, bikes are awesome and in CA I've noticed, since people are allowed to lane split, they're use in LA must be awesome
I once tried to ride my friend's scooter and I froze up when I cranked the gas peddle on and wasn't able to turn. I crashed into the curb. He wasn't mad at me, or at least he thought the situation was much more hilarious than furious  I have no fear of riding a motor cycle though, even though when I was very young I was in a motor cycle accident without a helmet on and got messed up pretty bad
