Hey Yahoo. This is an old account, and it's obviously not my real name. It's 5 years old, so the name is a tad odd. Just in case you wanted to know. Anyways, I don't want to bore you, so I'll get right to it. I want to get a motorcycle as my first motor vehicle, and I love Harley's, but they seem a bit pricey, and my parents have a problem buying a 15.5/16 year old a 12,000 dollar bike. I'm not surprised. So I have two questions. First, how old do I have to be to get a permit for a cycle? Secondly, what's a nice, smooth and relaxing cruiser to ride that isn't in the 10s of thousands? Thanks.
