I was speaking from my experience. I was so nervous when collecting both my bikes (the America and my learner bike) from the dealers, and as I had to take them home, I had to ride them away. Yes I was worried that I was going to drop them - I still am - and would have been mortified if I had.

However if I'd had them delivered I think it would have still be sat on the front. And still only have 3500 miles...not the 5000+ miles I've done since...

And Vitaliy, perhaps 1 1/2 hours is a little too far for the first ride... just take it steady.
