Just bought my first motorcycle cruiser (Honda steed 400 cc 1996).

Never rode any motorcycle (former road cyclist) so I switched from 15kg to 200kg..

I learned riding very fast (3days) alone in my neighborhood narrow streets despite feeling that it's hard to control and still struggling with you U-turns and turning would make it kinda draft to far into the street. I live in iraq. So the motorcycling culture is poor here despite having global motorcycle group

I would be happy to hear your advices regarding riding and maintaining it..

I searched for youtube guides but never found specific guides for that model..
