> Honestly, get a old 600. Like a 89 hurricane or something to learn on, and see how much you really like riding. My buddy just did and got it for like 800, rode for a little then sold it for 800, and got a r1. You can snag one for under $1000. I learned on a 04 cbr 600rr, and after a while it just didn’t have enough straight line power for me so I moved up. DO NOT get a 1000 anything to learn on.
