Good idea! I've been riding since I was a kid, as a close family friend sold and rode motorbikes, so I grew up around it. I learned to ride on their daughter's (a year younger than me, mind you) 2002 Yamaha Virago 250. Over a decade later, and I'm hopefully going for my bike L's soon. I've been practising on my brother's 2011 Aquila Hyosung (Classic, 647cc) in the meantime, which has been absolutely mad.
Tell me a bit about yourself, Mada What do you like to ride? Any of your tips?
Dude, thats heaps good!
My dad races motorcycles with a club called BEARS so i've also grown up around it
My first ever ride was on a honda CRF 100 in a friends paddock. These days i ride a Honda XR250 on the dirt.
On the road my first ever bike was a Ducati 600 Monster (Dad and I love ducatis). It was an absaloute beast to ride, but it was horrible for a first time learner bike on the road (thats my advice, don't get a big bike for your first one, its better to learn well on something small). It was just too heavy and powerful for me given my fairly limited experiences on the road.
These days, i ride a KTM Duke 200. Small, light and goes alright. Really nippy and accelerates well. Handles pretty good through corners too.
I also recconmend ride days at your local racetrack, they're a great way to learn how your bike goes without all the road hazards and speed restrictions!
