@Anthony Barr Welcome and keep the rubber side down!

@Kristi Knupp Welcome. VT600 will be just fine for you. Do lots of homework and learn as much as you can. This is a great hobby/lifestyle.

Welcome. Glad you're into wanting to learn to work on your own bike. Ask lots of questions and get your hands dirty. :)
