I'm a beginner with some experience, I plan on getting a sports bike soon and am looking for advice?
Thank you for the help/advice!
I have been doing research and I have already decided on a few things. Firstly, I will not be buying new of course, I plan to wait, look around and compare the used bike s I like. (Honda CBR300R ABS) / Yamaha r3) Since I'm buying used my problem would be the fixes/maintenance for the bike I think. The reason for my choices is because they are reliable, affordable, good fuel mileage and performance given they good beginner bikes. The reason I want a bike is because I had a dirt bike when I was younger and can't stop doing research or wanting to get my own now that I'm older and independent. I'm 5ft 10" 140 lbs working on saving up more $$, getting my gear and license. *thinking of doing a motorcycle safety course, as I don't have a motorcycle right now to do m1 exit test.
Your 'question' really isn't a question exactly but to muddle thru that…
New or 'used' a bike is a bike but buying used as a street starter is a good idea.
The CBR 300R or the Yamaha R3 are good choices but remember STREET riding versus DIRT riding are TWO different worlds so take it easy out there.

- What are some good and reliable sports cars by these brands? I'm looking to buy a sporty type car from one of the more reliable brands. From what I've heard, Toyota, Honda, Acura, and Hyundai are pretty solid. By good and reliable i mean which cars hold their value the longest, which cars are the least expensive to fix if something did go wrong, etc. I'm just looking for a basic list of some good cars that cost less than 20,000. Obviously not looking for brand new cars
- Which motorcycle will be suitable for a beginner with little riding experience? I just recently took the MSF course and got my motorcycle endorsement. I want a bike I can ride for a year or two then eventually move to a cbr600rr. I plan to do some highway riding and computing within town. I'm 6'1 152 pounds, base on what I told you will you recommend the kawasaki ninja 300, the Yamaha R3, or the Honda cbr500r?
- Which bike would be a good first sport bike. Looking at CBR1000/600's and also the yamaha R1/R6? I don't know much about the differences, I know some people are all for Suzuki, Yamaha, Honda, of Kawasaki. Seems that whatever bike someone has, they say its the best. I wish I could just ride all of them and see for myself. Tampa, FL Sam
- What would be the kind of sports bike apt for a beginner to start-off? I'm new to riding bikes, and I've ridden cruise bikes( I'd like to start-off my sports-bike riding. For now, my options for a beginner's sports bike are a Kawasaki Ninja 300, a Honda CBR250RR and a 600RR. I could afford a budget around 6,000 USD to 7,000 USD. What, according to your opinion and experience, would be a good starter sports bike for a beginner? And what kind of technical know-how and riding skills should I be needing to work on, in order to use one properly?
