Welcome! Sportbike owners do not seem to join us as much as other kinds of bikes owners. My guess is, like you, they buy them oftentimes from other first time riders ( in some cases from those who didn't take care of them--not saying that detail is the case with you and your friend), are able to fix their problems (if there were issues) while learning to ride, and then move on to bigger and better things.

I hope you stick around for a while, because it would be nice to see how these bikes hold up (as compared to the enduros many of us have) over the long term.
