I like the Variant in general, kinda reminds me of Master Chief from Halo with the gold visor. Ever see a guy on a Red CBR 250R with that helmet, chances are it's me.

Welcome! As for what you're asking, I would still say take an MSF course. It makes getting the M2 a lot less frustrating because the instructors are also the testers. I would also say at least get an experienced rider to teach you how to ride if you chose not to take an MSF course or you'll pick...

Gotta be licensed for at least 5 years I believe.

Looking good! Defiantly would've gotten the Ninja 300 when I was bike shopping if it was released.

Well I've sat on all of the current selling sportbikes (250's, 300) and they sit very upright, now the supersports (CBR 600, GSXR 600, R6 etc) sit in a much more aggressive riding position. Oh and the Suzuki SV 650 sits like a supersport too so you may want to stay away from that one in terms of...

Sounds me like when I was 16, I knew everything!

Went for a ride today (About to go for one again), and it was fun but very cold. I really need to invest in some heated grips or gloves, 15 minutes in and my hands are frozen but it's worth it:D!!

Even though Im not in the market for Kawasaki now I was browsing, I stopped by at Edge Performance in Bradford. The guy was very nice and I told him I was just looking but he was very informative on his bikes and had no problem letting me sit on them.

Weird when I shopping around for insurance, almost every company I called asked me if I had taken a Motorcycle Safety Course. An insurance company even asked me to print off a certificate and send it to them so they can verify it.

Pretty cool, saw it somewhere before and it made me raise an eyebrow- though not my style. .... Dig the Icon Variant though:P

Just read the article and picked up on this "If you're going to apply Ultra-Ever Dry to anything transparent like a motorcycle helmet visor or car windscreen or glasses—well, don't"

Very cool! DS83/Gardensnake I see are in there, oh and nice Fall Out Boy music haha!

Live 5 minutes from my work so I will ride in any temperature just as long as there is no snow on the roads. Even to go out and enjoy riding, I will put up with the cold just because I get sick of looking at videos and talking about riding during the winter :rolleyes:. I need to invest in some...

Like many others have said, TD insured me with my M1 at the age of 19. But I would also give "Dalton Timmis" a call, they are good too.

Agree 100%, when I was bike shopping Kawasaki only had to offer the 250,which isn't a bad bike but the CBR just seemed more updated and I don't regret going with it.

"I would definitely would want the bike for more than one season, more like 3 or 4. And for that am worried that a 300 might not cut it. But my friend has a 250 he loves it. " Just from my experience and I'm not in anyway saying this goes for everyone, but I rode my 250 for one season and was...

"A child in Ontario has to stay in school until they turn 18, whether they want to or not, and a parent can’t sign something changing that" Weird, I was done school when I was 17 hmm.....:rolleyes:

Seeing as you're concerned with cost, I wouldn't start with any of those bikes. Brand newly released 2013 models, all the extra hidden fee will be added on! :D My advice, start on a 250 and get comfortable with it for a season. It doesn't have to be pretty, just needs to be something you can...

+1 on that

Okay well maybe this will answer a few of your questions from my own experience. So I was 19, never drove a car/never had insurance and just had got my very first class of license (M1). I picked up a brand new Honda CBR 250RA, and when I shopped around for insurance (PRIOR TO BUYING MY BIKE) I...
