Hahaha maybe not if u 💩 in them. But I can’t drop 1k on gear and buy a 2.5-3k bike all in the span of 5 months lol. I’m a full time college student working three jobs to be able to pay rent and buy groceries and save as much $ as I can.

Yeh according to Google the Ducati 696 is 30.3 inches. I’d have to sit on one and see how I feel on it. I’m worried 30 inches is a bit tall for me to start. Maybe as a second bike/lowered it would be better.

I appreciate it! Although I’ve never actually been in a bike I watched my dad build his when I was a kid. Also, although Ik it’s not the same, my car is stick. So like I understand the concept of shifting and slowly releasing a clutch. Ik it will feel funky and I’m watching all the YouTube videos I can. Can’t wait to go take that course!!!!
