What are good street motorcycles to start on?
$250 a week, huh? If you're under 25, that won't even cover the insurance, let alone the payments.If i have a motorcycle and I drop it will my insurance cover the repairs?
Yes, you need a license to drive it off the lot. Yes, you have to pass a motorcycle test just like you did for your driver's license. Yes, you need to have at LEAST $500 to purchase motorcycle gear before you ride.
Honda motor cycle250cc spada stops running when engine warms up. Cools down and will restart?
Your grandma isn't cool, she's ignorant (sorry, would "ignant" work better for you?). Your grandma has never seen a motorcycle that can do 0-60 in under 5 seconds, and you probably sweet-talked her into it because your parents already said NO.
Will a 150/80/17 tire 0n a Sabre wheel fit on an '84 Honda Magna?
Why can't you use your parents' car? I'd be willing to bet there's a reason for it, and if you still live with your parents at 19 you don't have enough experience with the real world to handle the responsibility of a motorcycle.

Granted, you did pick out a decent starter bike, even if it is a bit heavy. But all you seem to convey is BIKE BIKE BIKE BIKE BIKE! without mentioning anything else that goes along with it.

Three Wheeler Trikes - how do they compare to the regular 2-wheel motorcycles for riding, etc?

Marvel Mystery Oil in Motorcycles?
Thats quite a bike for someone who just wants to get to work and out of the house. If you live in part of the country where you can ride it all year, a bike is a possibility for basic transportation but if not, forget it until you can afford a toy. At 19 you might want a lot of other things and this bike is going to keep you broke for sometime.(might keep Cool Grandma broke too) Check what that insurance is going to cost you. Take a motorcycle safety course. (You will get a break on insurance and might find out if you like biking or not) Yes you need a licence to ride off the lot . Either a motorcycle licence to ride by yourself, or an automobile licence and some one with a m/c licence to accompany you. Make sure you have medical insurance too. (I have a hunch you might need it)How to get a Lifan 200 motorcycle from China titled?
That would make a good bike for a 19year old. But you will dump it in the first month. Buy a $600 junker and ride it a couple of months. If you survive, then trade it in and get the new Yamaha.Someone took my Harley for a joy ride , run from Police and crashed it?
I'll have to agree with the "buy a junker" answer. You WILL lay your bike down during your learning curve. And you don't want to lay a new bike down.How many people here actually started on a 250cc?
You might want to check out http://www.craigslist.org and see if someone is selling a used bike you might like. You can always re-sell it later on after you've learned how to ride.
What happened when you crashed?
And you will definitely want to take the MSF safety class. It's usually only 2 or 3 days and it worth every minute of it.

Here is a link to an insurance company that I feel does well with motorcycle insurance: http://www.progressive.com
They'll give you a free quote online. If you're nervous about giving out personal info to them, you can invent a name, email address, social security number, etc. Just make sure you give them your general geographic area, and pertinent info about previous tickets, your age, the correct info about the motorcycle, stuff like that.
What's the best crotch rocket motorcycle?
Hi mate, I'm from Australia but don't let that deter you from reading this.I'm thinking of making my motorcycle obnoxiously loud, do you think i'm cool if i do that?
If I had my time again and had to start learning to ride I would go for a motard type of motorcycle, you know the one's that look like trail bikes with road tyres on them. They have good power to weight and handle very well.
In OZ we are restricted to a piddly 250cc which for a 90 kg person like myself would kill the power, however our government isnt too stingy and have allowed us to ride up to 600cc with a single cylinder. So that is my answer if you are an Australian and considering the same type of transport!
I need a Harley basketcase...as cheap as possible...anybody have one for sale? Near Atlanta GA?
I would go with the other guy that answered your question, be patient and get some rider training along with your liscence it will keep you alive! Don't forget rider safety equipment! If you like sportsbikes, buy a nice one piece race suit, even if you do buy a motard. Get into a few mags like the American Road Racer, thats my favourite American Mag it will help you sort through the crap gear and find someone who rides that can help you.

Where can i find a title loan place for my motorcycle in indiana?
Congrats Dude - I would start out small and used, and then work my way up. Those 600 cc sport bikes are way cool, but they have a lot of power and are a good way to get yourself banged up in a hurry. Accept as fact that you will probably crash once or twice as you learn, so you don't have to worry so much about scuffing a used scoot. Insurance on them is not cheap either.What are the laws to do with carrying a passenger on a motorbike in the UK?
You'll need to get your learners permit to ride a bike off the lot at the dealer - most state's require just a written test for that. Then you can ride 1 up w/ a helmet in the daylight hours until you get a full m/c endorsement (take the riding test)
My suggestion is to get a used, smaller bike like a Suzuki ES500 or a Honda Nighthawk 450, or even a Ninja 250 for learning on, and then upgrade after you hone your skills a bit more. Take the Motorcycle Safety Foundation course as soon as you get the chance, and in most places, that will grant you a full motorcycle endorsement. Get the gear - a good helmet, armoured jacket like a cool Icon model, and some armoured gloves. Wear boots w/ ankle protection. When you have your get-off, you'll be thankful for them...
The battery on bike was bought new last year. ho wlong does need to be charged?
in most states i think, yesyou need a licince to ride on a public road.the dealer probbly wont say much.as far as insurance,call 3-4 agents be for you buy.it might cost you more than you can afford.since you are a new rider,i am guessing you are,it could be in the range of 2000dollars a year divided by 12 months.that will you a close guess.as for a 1st. bike, get a bike that will be midsize.somthing you can handle ok.fair warnig, dont get a go fast bike. you cant handle all that power right away.you are still learning.bikes are a lot different than cars in that they have instant power.its right there at the twist of your wrist.call your lic.bur.ask them about getting a bigginers permit.you more likely have to go thru a riding test.you can only ride in the day time& no back seat riders.you will have to wear a helmet, even if your state does not require it for long time riders.look at the 500to 600 cc.s. keep it simple.as much as you want to look cool in front of your friends,its your life& health.you are learning the rules of the road on a bike.a big diff. on two 2 wheels. i have 22 years riding.Is it legal to "lane split" while riding a motorcycle?
