best bikes for small kids image
Gabe
Im 190 lb, 6'1'', iv never rid-in a real motorcycle before just dirt bikes and small kid motorcycles. I was wondering what is the best starter motorcycle for me, I like choppers but there usually expensive and I didn't want to spend more than $5,000. It's only for transport around a small town and just to get to school. What is the best bike? It would also be helpfull it is big and heavy it would help bring my dad to allowing it since he is sort of against it.
Answer
We see this question pretty often, but the family angle is new. So let me start there. If you are going to seriously compromise the relationship with your father, work on that before taking the plunge. Show him that you're serious about safety by taking the Motorcycle Safety Class before shopping. Check into insurance rates. Ask him questions about coverage. Show him that you're safe in the car. Don't get any speeding tickets or drive with a heavy foot on the accelerator. Bottom line, best to prepare him by showing dad that you're ready.
Beyond that, there are limitless choices in motorcycles. Big and heavy isn't a great place to start since once they start to tip, there's no stopping them! Light and fast - the Honda CBR, Suzuki GSX-R, etc - are not the typical best first bike as they are very powerful and can do more than what a new rider is ready to do!
So starting small is not a bad way to go. Go sit on a few and see how they work for you. Try a few on - you can usually sit on them but not ride them - and remember what you intend to do with the bike. I like the Ninja 250 and Ninja 500 right now. Personally, I got back into riding on the Suzuki SV650 - but took it VERY easy at the start. But good to start with something manageable in size and move up when you're ready. Otherwise life can be too short! Good luck!
