  1. My instructor suggested that I get at least a 500cc bike. He noticed how I was having problems on the small 250 bikes at the class and he came up to me and suggested I get sometime bigger, said it would be easier for me to ride.
  2. Hello I am new to riding, passed my Ohio Basic Riders course a month ago. I am 6'1" and about 228lbs. I am looking for a 600cc bike to get for my first bike, but as I am looking, I am finding some 1000cc bikes the same price or cheaper than some of the 600cc bikes I am finding. I am going to buy a sports bike like a R6 or CBR500rr or 600rr or maybe even a Suzuki.
  3. oh ok lol I plan to wear full gear, helmet, jacket, gloves, proper boots or motorcycle shoes, thinking about getting pants too.
  4. I think that hi viz colors like blue or red mixed with white will be better for the day time as mentioned above. I agree with hi vis like the yellow for night driving and gray, raining weather is good. I did a experiment where someone used different colors and moved the colors passed my peripheral vision and out of green, orange, and the hi viz type yellow, I noticed the green, orange much more than the yellow. The yellow blended too much into the background. I didnt know when or what side the colors would move into my vision.
  5. Hello What are some good colors to wear for good visibility to other drivers? I know the construction yellow and orange is noticeable, but are their other colors that will work well? Does white blend into the background too much?
  6. I am not looking to go mach one down the street Fun safe riding is my choice So if mesh is not the best, maybe I will look at something else. Solid jeans, what would be considered solid jeans?
  7. Wow thats a big difference in size, especially the tire.
  8. Thanks Dont want a crusing bike, at least not for my first bike, maybe a second bike. So my weight and height is not a big problem it seems for 500 and up bikes.
  9. Honda Hornet? They sold those in America? I thought they were only in Japan. They are still popular there.
  10. Not sure how much I will have. saving. Was hoping I could get something in the 2000 dollar range. If not Ill save up more.
  11. Looks sporty Lol Not worried about attracting women. want something thats fun to ride and not going to race 2000 mph down the street I am interested in learning basic moto gp riding. Does that affect the type of bike I buy?
  12. Thank you for the offer but its going to take me a couple of months to save up for a bike if over 1000 dollars. How much are you selling it for?
  13. I saw a 2015 one for 5000 dollars. Is that too much?
  14. Cool I was there for a long time. Going back. Miss the bikes there
  15. Ehhh konba wa Nihonjin desu ka? I weigh 230but my normal weight is 200, I gained some weight.
  16. Thanks I want to make sure I know how to ride safely and properly. So a 300 would be too small?
  17. Hello I am a new rider. What are summers like for bike riders in Ohio? In Cincinnati? Why type and material gear should I buy for riding in the summer here? What about when its raining?
  18. Hello I am a new rider and just completed the Ohio BRC. I am looking for my first bike. My instructor suggested I get a 500cc bike, he pulled me aside and mentioned this to me after he observed me during the class. I think the 250 bikes that we were using was too small for me. My knees came up to the gas tank. I am 6'1. I am looking at 300, 500, and 600cc bikes. I want to buy a naked bike or a sport bike. I want something to enjoy riding and I will use the bike for daily commutes. I have watched many youtube videos of people saying that if a person buys a bike that is too small in the beginning, the person usually outgrows the bike quickly. I dont want to make that mistake. Any suggestions.
