Take the course and you will feel much more comfortable.

I second that. I took a safe rider course and it was totally worth it. We started on little Honda 125's. It was funny because about halfway through the class I bought a Kawasaki ZX-6 and rode it to the classes. I hopped off the ZX-6 and threw my leg over the 125. What a difference!
