Seriously thank you for that, that was no sarcasm whats so ever. Ive been dead set on taking the riding courses and the parents arent helping me out with this at all. I have to get my own insurance policy and all my own stuff if i want a bike. All my little brother (who is 16) talks about is how when he gets his bike he's going to learn how to do all stunts and what not and all i can do is look at him and call him a dumbass. I do not have the need/want to stunt the bike because like you said parts arent cheap.
I've taken my falls learning on dirtbikes..took a turn a little too fast and the backend slide forward. The GS500 may not be as fast but from what some people have said it seems like a solid starter bike. I dont want to be another statistic of teen deaths.
Im about to turn 18 so I wanted to buy myself a nice little graduation present. It was this or a Mazdaspeed 3. Again my parents arent helping me at all. Are the pants going to matter that much if the bike is going to be ridden maybe...30 mins at a time? I live in the Kennesaw, Powder Springs area. All I know if for sure I dont want to be giving my death wish by getting a bike. I want to take it nice and slow. I know none of you have met me but i hope my response has given you a little insight about me and my intentions.
