Been thinking of getting another bike bruhs.. what y’all think of the Harley Softails? I like the new streetbob, Lowrider S , and last years Breakout.
You seen the new Harley Sporster S? I have plans on getting a Scout Bobber, but that Sporster S ain't no joke.
What kinda bike were u practicing on?Honestly I was nervous about the throttle and giving it enough gas without feeling like it would shoot off and being stuck in my head
I dropped the bike early because I didn't straighten the handlebars so the instructor already knew I was going to have a hard time
Instructor had to give me extra lessons during the break time...
Then I kept stalling the bike
Starting and stopping was where I really started fukking up, couldn't get the the timing on the breaking right
Instructor let everyone know that some of us are going to have to get extra practice lessons, knowing he was referring to meHe said I can continue the course at a discounted price, packed my shyt and left
I am the type of person that always takes extra time trying to learn something so this is nothing new.Just frustrating. That was hours ago though Im chill now
Had to find the train back home since I was stuck in a hood I never been in before on a dead phone

That Sportster S is dope but if you comparing between the scout bobber I like the scout more.. I still need to test ride both Indian and Harley bikes

Get a Ninja 650 if you like sport looking bikes. It has some decent power but not as crazy ergonomics like real sport bikes.. or try a Harley 1200 or 48. Sometimes it depends on your height too

650 is the beat starter bike. I was looking at those till I seen the Scout Bobber
The plan is Scout Bobber, pay it off in a year or 2 and then Hayabusa

Good luck with that, they look cool but I’d rather get a GSXR1000 or Kawasaki H2, but a busa is dope regardless it’s actually part of the GSXR line too

You trying to get a busa?
Well I'm a big dude, like 6 foot, but beside that, the Busa is legendary. I like the fact you can do any sort of riding with it. Cruiser or sport touring. It's way comfortable than most sports bikes. I don't want no other sport bike. I like the R1 too because of the V8, but I want the busa. The end game is a turbo and making 350-400HP
I'm not sure what you mean but good luck, there's plenty of good ones for sell. I seen a 2018 metallic silver for 12k. Low miles

Lol yea good luck does sound like they aren’t out there but I meant like
good luck cuz i never ridden one so I wasn’t sure if they were more or less comfortable and couldn’t give advice on one. 12k for a 2018 ain’t bad tho

I be looking at enginehawk jackets and hoodie and their shyt like $300-500. But then I look on Amazon and off brand shyt like $100 max. Same with helmets. shyt got me confused

I wouldn’t buy the Amazon shyt just because the quality probably ain’t the same or the armor might be hella cheap .. $300 -$500 does sound like a lot but it’s gear for your body incase of a crashI be looking at enginehawk jackets and hoodie and their shyt like $300-500. But then I look on Amazon and off brand shyt like $100 max. Same with helmets. shyt got me confused
Get something small. Ninja 250 or 500. Great online forums for noobies too for those bikes. You’re going to drop your first bike so get something cheap and low powered. Ninja 250s and 500s have great resale so you’ll probably get your money back. Put 5-10K on your noob bike then upgrade to what you really want.
Like someone told me, if you start out on a powerful bike you won’t learn to ride you’ll learn how to survive.
