School me on bikes

so starting on less of a bike isn’t a bad idea.

Quoted for truth. Not saying it’s impossible to learn on a bigger bike, but you just increased the difficulty level exponentially. Something with less bite powerwise and chassis wise would be a lot more forgiving if you have a “moment”. It will also be more condusive to learning and practicing your skills, and a bit less intimidating.
