<![CDATA[Looking to buy a bike]]>Haven't really gotten into bikes before.. And as I just sold my car, I think im going to buy a bike. Anyone have any input on what I should be looking for in a bike?

Kinda a worthless post.. But I don't know what else to say other than what it already said LoL.

Input?

Thanks

Something to keep in mind, but I really don't want to spend that much on a bike I'll be getting rid of soon. I basically need something to learn on and then it's being sold agian.

These damn gas prices are getting horrible.. So I need to start looking more serious now.

Thanks for the input guys!

You can even go out with someone on a dirt bike or something out in the country and learn to ride that, since its the same controls as a street bike. That's how I learned.

Thanks Trei and Grr.

I was just gunna hop right to the big shit, but now that you mention it, I would prolly end up dead rofl. I've never driven a motorcycle, but really would like to learn how as im sick of driving in a car in the nice summer weather we have.

I mean for christ sakes.. we have 3-4 months of ridable time and the rest is cold as fuck and your in a car anyway.. so why not enjoy it 😉

Thanks!

If you don't even know how to ride a motorcycle, get something small, light, and cheap. Then after you get your license (EVERYONE on a bike should have their class M license!), and you get comfortable being in traffic, move up to something bigger. Most people will say, oh just get a 600 right away you'll be fine. Not a good idea unless you have a LOT of experience under your belt. A great starter bike, is a Ninja 250, if you're into sport bikes. You can probably get a decent used one for $1500 or less, and when it comes time to sell it for an upgrade, it will still be worth that. Just be careful so you don't hurt yourself.
