An you may very well be right about that. I would agree that new riders should definitely start on smaller bikes. Anyone have an old 250 they want to let me borrow then? Lol :)

Welcome. I'm going through the same thing, its an exciting time.

No thank you. I've been driving for over a decade now and never had an accident of any kind. It's just safer at 170km/h for everyone.

I'm pretty sure this guy posted a thread on here when he got it. Said he couldn't wait for spring and posted the garage pic. Too funny.

I have to disagree. My daily driver (Acura TL) will accelerate well beyond the speed limit by just "resting" my foot on the pedal. Some cars do it naturally without even trying, turbo cars are especially known for this. Same thing with high end luxury cars being so smooth at high speeds. They...

Trust me I'm not putting all of my faith into an online quote. I don't even have a motorcycle licence right now so I had to make up a fake date for when i recieved my M2 (said sept '15). The most important thing is that the bike is not marked up like a supersport bike even tho its 600cc. I did a...

120km/h is fine on the major highways. But I do not agree with the severe penalties of going any faster then that. Cars today are made to handle higher speeds safely compared to when the limits were set. Taking someones licence and fining them thousands of dollars for forgetting to lift their...

I would love to ride something smaller for a year and then switch when it became more affordable. I guess the problem is that I already have a bike and can't afford to own two at once yet. Unless were talking a scooter or something I might be able to pull that off. Guess I'm in a tough spot. I...

So what would be some good bikes that a bigger guy could start out on? I literally don't fit on 250's so its completely out of the question for me :/ I thought the SV650/Ninja 650R/FZ6R class of bikes were good options for bigger guys, everyone seems to think they are from what I have read...

Why do you say that?

I will check with the insurance companies to see where I stand. I'm hoping for something under a grand/yr. I think that's fair. I appreciate you taking the time to point me in the right direction btw.

Maybe evolved isn't the right word. But knowing right from wrong is a very basic part of being human. If someone doesn't see why its wrong to have sex with a 9 year old there is something wrong mentally with that individual.

I use to blame this on religion until I did some reading and realized religion is like firing ideas onto a wall (people) and seeing what sticks. People say Muslim religion is messed up because it tells them to kill those who do not believe in the same God. Meanwhile the Bible does the exact...

I sure hope that's not the case :help: It's like the slowest inline4 bike in North America. Literally.

So they think doing this is safer then?

A number of people who ride have said for me it is a very good choice. I'm 6'2 215Lbs and have owned and operated dirtbikes since i was about 11 y/o. I'm 26 now although i haven't been riding that whole time. It's a LAMS bike in Europe so i figured it would be good to start on.

The bike is called a Yamaha fz6r. I was told it was a learners approved bike and cheaper on insurance then the supersports which i really hope is true. If the insurance is bad i will be very upset. My car insurance company doesn't carry motorcycles so I couldn't get a proper quote, with no...

How often do you go offloading with it?

Hi all. So I've recently taken the bait and picked up my first motorcycle. I'm not new to two wheels but I am new to "legal for the street" 2 wheels. An as such I'm kinda in the dark about the process of getting a licence to getting the bike on the road with plates and insurance, yup I'm a noob...
