My boy got his first bike a few years back, he started with a 650cc bike. I wanna get a bike and I heard you should start with something small like 250-300cc, is this true brehs?

Maybe if you're a fakkit :manny: I started with a 636 and had no major accidents.


I do suggest, however, that if you buy new to please please please take off the OEM fairings. Buy aftermarket so when you inevitably drop the bike you won't damage the original fairings, which a set can easily cost over $1500 as opposed to an aftermarket set of around $400

You know I never cared for electric cars, but I'm down with electric bikes. On some Tron Legacy shyt:wow::banderas:
Can't lie I love hearing the exhaust on a bike but this electric one is raw af especially when it transformed for the ergonomics for commuting vs sport riding:whoo:

Man get a bike bruh.. You can do 300 but you'll probably get rid of it in like 2 months . I'm still in my first year I got a 650 perfect power for new or experienced riders. What kind of motorcycle you looking at?

650 is inbtween 200/300 and 600.

You'll outgrow a 200/300 fast and depending on your size you won't be comfortable. I was just looking at the Honda CBR650F which was pretty quick, but not overwhelming.

My neighbour's selling their Kawasaki ninja 300 for like 2k. She's a big girl and said it's too small for her

Can someone direct me to a comprehensive site for bike information? Like for questions for first time riders/buyers, like a need to know guide on line?

PLAY IT SAFE. BUY A CHEAP 300CC TO LEARN ON. RIDE THAT UNTIL YOU CAN PASS THE ADVANCED RIDING COURSE ON IT.

Sold my '98 Honda SuperHawk 996 last week. Time to shop for a RC51 and a RSV4 Factory APRC.
