It will be my first bike, but I am also well aware of how much of a bike that it is. I was going to get a 600, but I am a big person and when I learn to ride better, I do not want to have to buy another bike to upgrade...

My KX250 is my practice bike. I figure if I can master this thing in the sand, mud, and gravel I'll be in good shape when I finally do decide on which street bike I get.
My friend wants me to buy his R6 so he can get something else. I rode it around the parking lot at work and the clutch feel is totally different. Damn things have no steering at low speed either.

Yamaha Virago 250cc - don't laugh, its great here on the island
and
A Yamaha 50cc scooter.
I used to think scooters were for pansies till I moved here. Here, they are indispensible! I LOVE IT.
I was shopping for a Suzuki GSXR250 or GSXR400 or even an RGV125 or RGV250. But, the Virago was free for me to use as long as I want.....so naturally, I took it.

I'm quite interested in getting a sport bike recently. I piloted an R1 and GSX-R600 before and I love them(the R1 gave me sheer acceleration chills) but I never did had a good interest in bikes until now.
Maier: How do you like the R6? Is it as good as the R1 in terms of handling? Power isn't much of a concern for me now and the R6 is quite affordable for me.
