I have my M2 booked for July... thinking about a smaller bike to start...

Agree..!!! i think is the best for a new rider... now... i took the RTI course a couple of years ago... and 1 of many things they say to you is... "learn to control your bike first.." i have no idea if you have experience or not... but... take 401 is not a little game... exciting but dangerous...

but a lot of people are telling me to go for a 500cc because I will get bored of the 125, or 250...and they don't go very fast

look... that's BS..!!!! you do what you have to do... however... i believe you can start with 250cc... if you think after awhile you can handle a more powerful bike.. then... move forward...!!! you can sale the 250 anytime.. <call me... we can arrange a deal... i want to learn to do wheelies in a 125/250> anyways... i have a CBR 600 F4i and i can tell... is a powerful machine... however... i want also to move for a 1000cc...

*** IMPORTANT ***

There is nothing more value that life... keep in mind the first rule... DRIVE SAFE..!!! for you and the others..

we have a group.... east end riders... every sunday at 1:30 lawrence/brimley... and i can tell... 50% or more have 250...!!

anyway... to much talk... good luck... and let us know when you get your ride.!!!

Juan.

Welcome.

Welcome,
I know a couple of ppl that got 250s being their first bike and a few weeks into it they are ready to move up. Your best bet is to check with other 250 riders and get their thoughts. 500cc is also a good starter bike, all depends on your confidence level and your control.

Im not ready to move up as I want to get real good on my 250. But i do want more power like really bad. But i wont i promised to put at least 6000+km on hte 250 before i sell.

Merging onto the highway is a delicate tasks during high traffic times.

[needabike]

Not if your bike is fast haha. You can scoot in before the cars even know ur there. But I ride like a crazy man
