Hi My name is Jag, I am new to this forum (obviously). I will be doing my m1 exit next week, hope I pass and I have driven before but just a little bit.
My first riding experience was with my 2 cousins, probably not the smartest of trainers. They basically told me to just drive, I was excited and they also didnt mention where the brakes were, since I had to stop I figured that out.
also they both sat on the bike with me, and i drove for about 30km. Thank god I was in the middle of a desert on a ****** bike with no one around.
I drove a couple of more times after that but it has been two years, I never had problems with shifting or the clutch, could be because I love driving and I really pickup things quick.
I plan on getting a starter bike, like a 250cc because of insurance mainly, but also because I want to improve on my riding skills before I get a more powerful bike.
I have had some fast cars and drivin some fast cars at high speeds on track days and what not, so I am use to quick acceleration and high speeds in cars, but I dont know how it will be on a motorcycle. Hopefully the experience from cars transfers over and I dont get butterflies like you do the first time you go real fast or accelerate quick.
Hopefully I will get a faster bike next year and come out to some track days.
I will be getting a bike within a week after doing the m1 exit course, I have done some shopping around and I have gotten a quote of $1800 for a ninja 250r, which seem reasonable to me. I am 24 and have 1 minor suspension about 4 years ago. By minor I mean 1 month.
