Want to buy a bike, need help
Ok I really dont know shit about bikes but I want a small (motor) sporty street bike to cruise on.
it doesnt have to be crazy fast or anything, just something to cruise on.
whats a good bike to start with?
also I dont want to spend to much money, so of course something used, if anyone knows of any.
any and all help would be great.

Re: Want to buy a bike, need help
Here's my advice.
Walk down your driveway till you get to the paved road. Remove your shirt, fold and place it at the end of your driveway. Run at a full sprint down the center of the road until you reach maximum speed then quickly dive to the pavement keeping the body as parallel to the road surface as possible.
Come back and tell us if you still want a bike.
There are only two types of bike owners, those that have laid them down and those that will.

no shit?? damn I thought I would be the perfect rider when I start and would never lay a bike down
now some real responses are great. i was looking at a few honda cbr's, they dont seem to cost too much either. i just want something cheap to start on

Hmmm lets see, for around 2kish your best off with a 92-95ish Honda Cbr f2/3. If you've more money to play with (say 4k) Then go with a 98+ kawasaki zx6r.
