Yep, you're a novice. 
On another note, that's one powerful EDD you got there. Not too much on the road that will be able to take you.

Nice ride. Be careful and wear your gear. You have gear right?

Ahhh pick up decent boots! At the very least, go to your local Surplus store and get some leather boots that will provide ankle support/protection. For most people that go down without protection, their ankles/feet get SHRED up and broken in more places than you ever want to count because people just ride with tennis shoes or even sandals. Think about how many bones you have in your feet. Now think about how much work it would take to rehab those bones/skin/ligaments if/when you go down. You can find boots for ~50 bux usually, so it's really not that expenseive, at least compared to what you've invested already. Nice bike though, looks like fun. I just sold my bikes unfortunately, but should be picking it back up in a year or two when finances are better than they are now.

The smoked lights actually look pretty good on it. They fit with its style quite well. However, its definitly not something that I would consider as anything that makes me less noticable to cagers while Im the little guy is not a plus in my book.
