> Why the fuck does everyone push someone to buy a 600+ for their first bike? Give ME a legit reason because I am sick of defending my position. It’s your fucking turn folks, give me a damn good reason and guess what, “looking cool”, “getting bored”, etc are NOT legit reasons. It’s his first fucking bike. No one looks cool almost dropping their heavy bike at a light, no one looks cool lowsiding a liter bike because they can’t handle the brakes on it, no one looks cool highsiding because they blipped the throttle in a corner accidentally. You’re bored? If you’re bored you’re not riding that bike to it’s full potential. I one HUNDRED PERCENT can guarantee you that. No one on this forum rides well enough to do tap out a 300 or a 250.

> Just like these fucking guys that go to LVD, run shit times, then go home and throw their fucking wallet at their car instead of learning to drive what they have. Making your cock feel bigger and your wallet lighter don’t make you faster. They just make you look like a poser with deep pockets.

> I’m no fucking racer, I don’t claim to be. I’m not a hot shot. I’m not the best rider on this forum and honestly I bet you I’m not even in the top 50%. At least I know it though. There is no reason for you to push him into a bike that might not be the best for him right now. Those small bikes hold their value. He can take it and resell it for what he paid, no harm, no foul, and step up to a bigger bike knowing what he is getting into.

> I seriously don’t understand why everyone pushes people to do shit like this. You think a 600 gets out of the way faster? The ninja 250 is a 14 second bike. It’ll get out of the way and move out just as well as his infiniti. I can guarantee you it stops shorter too. There is no safety advantage to a SS bike. Not a single one. If you think there is you’re kidding yourself.

> I don’t care what you guys do, what you did, how you learned, how you ride, what you are or aren’t bored on. Some people have fun doing crack but I wouldn’t recommend that to everyone just because it works for a few people. That’s a pretty stretched analogy but still. What the fuck. It’s simple to look at something with common sense and say hey, there’s actually nothing wrong with that. FUCK.

idk iyla that that well, i shouldnt care, but for some reason I do… he got his ass ripped on his wedding ring, he got offered his ass to be re-ripped on the infiniti and i dont want it to happen again… idk ilyas cash situation, maybe hes financing? Financing means paying retails and idc what you say, you aint making close to your money back when you buy retail… I just KNOW he will get tired of it… YEAH, do it, go with the 250 first, idc, I just KNOW he will want more and end up selling it and I just feel like a good FINANCIAL decision would be to get the 600 and be cautious…

Im not a guy owning a 750, another 750, a 600, a 900 ext telling you this, I JUUUSTT sold a 250 2 weekkksss ago!! The bike sucks, even in motard platform if you will… Theres nothing funner then a motard and even that shit sucked.

btw, there is absolutely nothing impressive about a 300 pound bike doing the same exact 1/4 time as a 4000 pound luxury car lol
