Which style of motorbikes have more sex appeal?

I've got to second (or third, or fourth, by now) the recommendation to take riding lessons such as those offered by the Motorcycle Safety Foundation. They will have an instructor who will teach you how to ride in a safe environment and a lot of information about bikes and equipment.

Some riders have no trouble starting out on a 600 cc cruiser, but others find them a little too heavy for a first bike. You'll get an idea of where you stand after taking the lessons and getting some practice with a smaller bike.

What is the diff. between a 2stroke 7 4 stroke engine in motorcycles?


Then I would suggest just taking a look at your local motorcycle dealerships. They will let you "try on" the bikes on the showroom floor if you ask, and you can sit on different models to see how they feel for you. If it feels too heavy, too large, or too uncomfortable, trust your own instincts over the salesman's - don't get a bike you will not feel comfortable riding.

best place to start is the beginners riders course offered by your local comunity college.

Most important is learning to ride properly!

I ride an Aprilia Atlantic 500. It's a maxi-scooter and a ton of fun. I ride with my little "gang". They all ride Harleys (which are so overrated) and make fun of me, but who's hands and backs hurt at the end of the day? Yeah, not mine. :-) Anyway, whatever you decide, make sure you have fun!

is 19 to old to start riding a motorcycle? i mean most people start riding when there fourteen, soo...?

Buell Blast. Easy to learn on because it has smooth power, you can get a really low seat for it which you may need, when, not if, you fall over with it the parts may be found used and don't cost a fortune, get a used one and learn on it. If you like riding after a year or so sell it and get something better.
But they are designed for beginners.

What is a good super-sport bike for a beginner?

Try a used suzuki savage 600. I know a lot of people your size who ride them and say they are bullet-proof. Liquid cooled, shaft drive (no chain to mess with), and responsive. You can get a good deal on a used 600 and it will last a lot of miles. If you want a bike with the least amount of maintainence, check out a used BMW R65. If you are the least bit mechanically inclined I would suggest taking a small engine repair course at a local trade school.

The FIRST thing you need to do is to take the Motorcycle Safety Course. Don't go out and buy a bike and then decide you don't want it. With the class, you will get to ride one for a couple of days. Plus it will take the place of the license road test, and help with insurance.
