Take the course, and start with a 250. You'll enjoy the heck out of it, and it will help keep you safe. My 16 year old wants to ride and that is exactly what we'll do with him.
Also, good advice on buying used. Like cars, bike values fall off the cliff when driven off the lot, but unlike cars, level out pretty quickly (or at least that's been my experience). There's lots of good, used bikes with almost no miles on them for substantially less than new. When you're ready, you'll be able to sell your 250 and move up.
I'm getting the urge to ride again, after selling my last bike to help fund the FR-S. Might be time to start looking... |
Would you say $3000 for a 2008 Ninja 250 with 7000 miles and a free helmet be worth it?
