hey bike guys

[AnTi-PooN]

u want to get a quick bike but not too big to learn on. any recomendations?

also where can you buy one at a dealership i never see them

[Halfwit]

i bought this about 2 months ago. its fun, and easy to ride.. 55 + mpg. at dealerships you will mostly find things that are, or similar to suzuki katana GSX 600.(for a cheap smaller bike ) from what ive read from peeps around here thye seem not to like them, heavy or something.... but it is full fairing if your looking for a sportier look.

[AnTi-PooN]

well i def don't want more than like a 600 so i don't die

[jew_boy]

there are 2 dealerships in warner robins

[Halfwit]

well mine is a ninja 500.

here is suzukis 05 gs500. also depends on how much you want to spend. these go for around 2500-3500 but its a 500 so u stay small, but obviously is a nice bike

[AnTi-PooN]

where would i buy one of those at?

[Halfwit]

i got that picture from wow motorcycles http://wowmotorcycles.com/kawasaki.asp they seem t ohave good deals, but some ppl say they are shady or something..

i only know of a few places ive went... outdoor powersports in mcdonough, and cycle specialty in fayetteville near dixiland. wow motorcycles has the biggest inventory ive seen, but im sure u can order from any dealer... also try craigslist, cycletrader ...

gs500,


katana 600,


ninja 250's look sick this year...


UM 250

[markopolo311]

WOW isn't really shady, just assholes. All their bikes are overpriced and the only reason they stay afloat is cause they'll finance anything to anyone.

Also, I vote you start on a 250. My first time on my 250 I was scared as ****, just don't get one you'll get attached to, cause pretty soon you'll realize how slow it feels.

[Halfwit]

ok ^^. and i feel you on not getting atached to it, im ready for a lil more after 2 months on my ninja 500.

[2000Quad]

i have had my 600f2 for about 2-3 months and i don't think i ever wanna go over 600 for a street bike just because i feel so much more comfortable in the turns than i would on a bigger heavier 1000...i just plan on upgrading to a newer model year with more power than my 93

[Halfwit]

yeah all i want is a 600, but im sure it will handel/accelerate/feel/look alot better than my 93 500.

[sr98219]

I didnt have any problems at WOW. I feel like I got a good deal on my Busa and they gave me a decent amount on my trade in.

[slow_hatch]

SV650, 1st gens can be found cheap, and are fantastic bikes w/ plenty of cheap replacement parts and lots of aftermarket support.

[AnTi-PooN]

thnx for the info guys

[ueyedgr8tness]

I no were u can get a clean ass 2001 katana at for 3k it has 8500 miles on it and is well kept

[AnTi-PooN]

too much to spend on something i'm most likely gonna wreck

[~GILLEY~]

hey bro i dont know why you think you are going to wreck the 1st bike you get the bike of mine you were looking at is my 1st and i have not put it down im not saying im not going down just havent yet and as long as you dont try to ride out of your skill you will be ok just dont do like some people do and think your a badd ass. plus i know someone on here that has had a few bikes and didnt go down untill the last bike he has and its like his 3rd bike so get what you want and if you want to talk to me about my bike just pm me

[AnTi-PooN]

lol, i've been waiting on you to pm me bak about it

[ueyedgr8tness]

Man i have been riding for a little over a yr any 1 that rides with me can tell u i don't ride like a roockie but i said the same thing about my 1st bike but now wish i had never even got the other bike since i done got my new bike.


Just get something u want grow out of fast thats all i am saying

[ueyedgr8tness]

ok ^^. and i feel you on not getting atached to it, im ready for a lil more after 2 months on my ninja 500.

Lol i told u man it don't take long even thoe the 600cc sport bikes pack alot more hp than that ninja 500 it don't take long to run out of speed,and on top of that man i weigh in at 230 and i got the r6 uponone all the time and i am not even going to think about getting a 1k unless it will be a drag bike cause there is really no way u can grow out of a 600 sport bike

[~GILLEY~]

lol, i've been waiting on you to pm me bak about it

i didnt get a pm from you so try to send it again

[AnTi-PooN]

i only weigh 130 sooo...

[~GILLEY~]

thats has nothing to do with it i am only 160 so buy what you want and dont waste your time on a 250 get a 600 you will be happy with it as long as you are smart rideing and not try to go out and ride like someone that has been rideing for 10+ years

[gottraction?]

i started on a 91 katana 600. there not as bad as people say they are. and u can get them dirt cheap. 1200-2k for 1st gens. sv 650 is another prefect beginner. and weight dont mean much just stay smart!! I weigh 170. and im on a 03 r1

[tuyen]

i weight 110 and i ride a 04 r1. i handle it like easy. get a 600cc i say its a great start bike and you might love it and not have to upgrade it. and if you buy like a 250 or 500cc when you grow out of it then you have to spend more money to upgrade it. why not just buy a 600cc like most ppls do. any bikes kills man it all about the way you ride. like i say it all about the way you control it. and be caution. so no matter what cc it is.

[gottraction?]

that is true. damn 110 man? with 180hp. i bet it almost blows u off of the back when u throttle it!! lol

[ueyedgr8tness]

lol yea you or a small dude.I would of never thaught u would of been that small when i went to look at your bike.I bet your doing wheelies in 4th

[Smittie61984]

The new Ninja 250s are pretty sweet looking. And from riding my buddy's 06 Ninja 250 I can tell you that the thing can handle like it's on rails. Think of a direction and that bike will take you there. I've heard that they might be having 250cc 4stroke road racing coming to the southeast. If so I'm going to get one for sure (Even though I'm 6' 220lbs)

I started on a 1994 Yamaha SecaII

It only had about 60hp and weighed a good bit. It would also stay dead even with a 350z and get dusted past 100mph by a 350z. But a great bike to learn on. Got it for $1500 but you can find them cheaper if you can control your bike Fever. I couldn't.

I finally upgraded(Sort of) to a 1996 CBR600 F3 that I bought as a project bike. I still have more to go.

But good beginner bikes would be the GS500(Which can be found for about $3k), Ninja250(And heard of the Ninja650 being good too), SV650(Though a little tourqy), and older FZ6' (Not new ones because they have R6 motors in them).

But seeing you want to start small shows you have a decent head on your shoulders.

Also if you get the Ninja 250 and decide to sell it a few months or even a few years down the road. You'll get close to what you paid for it(Providing you buy used).

[ALVIN]

Get the Ninja 250s those bitches are HOT for 250s. But also take the Basic Riders course from the GA DMV. I mean it is $250 and 3 days out of your weekend, but you will feel so much more comfortable on a bike once you finish the course. They teach as if you've never seen a bike.
