Gixxus Christ! Posted July 26, 2018 Report Share Posted July 26, 2018 How long did you ride the 125 for? How good of a rider did you become in that time? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s thinking about a Gixxer 600. Pretty sure that answers the question. 😂 Seriously though, don’t buy a Gixxer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NinjaDoc Posted July 26, 2018 Report Share Posted July 26, 2018 I think this bike >> perfect easy bike to grow into and still lots of fun and no need to upgrade in near future. ABS for extra protection as well . A totally u biased opinion lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

what Posted July 26, 2018 Report Share Posted July 26, 2018 can't go wrong with a street triple if you don't mind the slightly higher maintenance cost over japanese bikes. that is if you're looking for something to ride on the street and in the twisties.

Gixxus Christ! Posted July 27, 2018 Report Share Posted July 27, 2018 If you really want to step up to a 600, consider bikes like the fz06 or yzf600r. Great bikes built for the street rather than the track. Still have plenty of power but the controls are way more forgiving of abrupt inputs, generally better mileage and more comfortable. You can get an older fz06 for like $2k Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

8Rider6 Posted July 31, 2018 Report Share Posted July 31, 2018 An SV650 or any similar 500-650 standard twin would be a good bike to step to as well. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
