My 18 year old son Steve just left the driveway on the Suzuki GS450 and I'm a mess. I took him down to a local neighbhorhood to practice and he did great. He took the safety course a year ago and passed with flying colors but I'm still nervous. He just left to go show his friends the bike him and his dad worked all winter on to restore. I'm not sure who's prouder, me or him. He has all his safety gear on but I'm still nervous. Maybe it's all the yahoos out there not paying attention. Oh well, I guess it's part of growing up and he'll be ok.
