FlyingBunny Posted July 15, 2009 Report Share Posted July 15, 2009 Hello, riders! I'm a super newbie: a newbie to the forum and a newbie to riding.I'm a friend of juliejuliejulie and just recently completed the MSF course with her. It was the very first time I have EVER ridden a bike (as a 'driver'. I previously just rode on the back of my boyfriend's CBR 600RR... and being a pax just isn't as fun ), and through some trial and error (*coughdroppingthebikecough*) I passed the course and got my endorsement! Woohoo!I'm here to learn more about bikes, get to know those of you who enjoy riding, and make a few friends here 'n there I would love to hear from all of you, especially about your riding experiences and tips for a newbie rider like me. Also, any tips on which kind of bike I should purchase would be MUCH APPRECIATED!! I've been told the Ninja 250 is an awesome bike to start out on, so I've been keeping an eye out for those (used ones, of course). Thoughts?

gixxie750 Posted July 15, 2009 Report Share Posted July 15, 2009 try a SV650 or a 06+gsxr 600. Also all your weight should always be on the pegs and NONE of it on your hands and wrists. Also WELCOME lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Anderson Posted July 15, 2009 Report Share Posted July 15, 2009 Do you seriously fly too, or is that just a clever ruse? I will be selling my 250 ninja next year. I am also new and I can tell you if you want power. Your first bike should be a 600 or better. Like sv650 or the ninja 500. I already outgrew my 250 in less then a month.

SWing'R Posted July 15, 2009 Report Share Posted July 15, 2009 Hello, riders! I'm a super newbie: a newbie to the forum and a newbie to riding....I would love to hear from all of you, especially about your riding experiences and tips for a newbie rider like me. Also, any tips on which kind of bike I should purchase would be MUCH APPRECIATED!! Welcome!The type of bike you get would really depend on the type of riding you anticipate on doing and whether or not you like the riding position of a sportbike or a cruiser.I'm sure there will be plenty of people givin ya suggestions. Come to some bike nights and take a look at different bikes...- Wednesdays at Quaker Steak & Lube.- Thursdays at Wings & Rings (E. Broad just past Mt Carmel East)- Fridays at Hooters in Hilliard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FlyingBunny Posted July 15, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 15, 2009 I actually live nearby Wings & Rings, so that may actually work out!! I would love to see all the different bikes. I have my heart set on a sports bike. I trained on a cruiser and it just wasn't the right "fit" for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
