my opinion on first bike

3686 Views 41 Replies 9 Participants Last post by  DLIT
I know many people r goin to disagree, but in my opinion anything less than 600cc is a waste of money. I started on a 600 and it wasnt too powerful. I have a lot of friends who started on 750's and it was no big deal. If your worried about dropping it just buy something a little older and cheaper. I just think if you buy something under a 600 u will be disapointed and stuck with it when you try to sell it. Remember when ur buying a bike a good thing to keep in mind is at some point ur going to sell it. So you want something that appeals to other people as well as yourself. Just thought i would share this with everyone

yeah i used to agree but i bought my sv650s and if you ride it like you are racing then you cant use it to its full use on the street ..... my reason for whanting to upgrade ...which wont be for a while but hopefully within next year!......is to have a liter bike with more power to do my favorate wheelies :wink: :dthumb: :dthumb: :dthumb: :dthumb:
:lol: :lol: :lol: boy you shouldent have posted this thread lol
yeah i agree any 600 would serve me better then i need as far as performance but i just like the looks and size and everything else that comes with a liter bike my dream is the sv1000s lol the one that i forgot to metion up there lol with a good set of duel exausts!! and the 2001 orange color :drool: i think i just messed in my drawers lol


yep it will be the sv1000s in a couple years hopefully!!!!

ok a couple of years i can live with and the sv. i was thinking you wanted to get a gixxer 1k next year. lol

if you wanna do wheelies, no matter what bike you have, you have to gear it.
im sure a gixxer can power wheelie in proly third!!!


and the sv1000s isent that far from the gsxr is it???

pretty far. lol dont know but i do like the orange one with the full fairings, my step fater was gonna get one. but he ended up with a zx12r.

you wanna talk about power wheelie OMFG can a 12r power wheelie.

when i was 9 i had and 80cc dirtbike lol. then my next step was an xt500 at age 12 and a yz250 at 14.

yes my 636 is my first bike.

but technically my first bike was a HUFFY. lmfao it had 2 leg HP
lol my very first bike was honda fatcat lol that 2 leged horsepower 636 was talkin about could beat it!!
Mojo said:
In that case, a 636 should be fine for her as well... Unless her feet don't touch the ground on one.
not if she hasent been riding her whole life


would you let a person learn to drive clutch in a viper or a junky old thing

My first street bike was a 1987 600R Ninja. (totaled in less than 3k)
Rode dirt as long as I can remember.
I taught my wife to ride a wore out Banshee then a 80cc dirt bike to a SVS 650 to a GSXR 600.
