First off, no matter where you live, you should consider attending a motorcycle rider safety course in your area. They will not only teach you the basics of riding, the course will help you get the endorsement on your license. Your state may even require you to attend a safety course anyway.How much oil do you put in front forks for a Yamaha XJR 1200?
Next, a 250cc to 500cc used bike is your best bet to begin on. They are usually lighter and easier to handle until you get your bearings about you. After you've gotten comfortable with handling a bike, graduate to a bigger cc. Honda, Yamaha, & Suzuki put out some great bikes to get started on.

Being from Ohio, let me tell you the proceedure:
Exhaust for a 2005 Harley ElectraGlide with a Carb?
1. Get a car license first.
1.5 Get a motorcycle learner's permit. easy questions, but study anyway.
2. Get a bike of about 250 cc, because it is lighter and easier to control.
3. Practice the turns, and LOW speed control over shifting gears, and stopping on a dime. Low speed. They never make you go fast on the driving test.
4. Practice shifting with your foot from first to second without getting stuck in neutral.
5. Practice weaving between cones placed close to each other. Close!
Watch other people taking the driving test and passing and FAILING. Usually old geezers with a big Harley fail because they have no Low Speed control.
You'll need a motorcycle learner's permit first, it should be the same as a car's learner's permit but it may have a different written test.
If you are just starting out don't get a big bike to start with, get something like a 350cc or maybe up to a 500cc. This will be easier to handle and there is less chance of it getting away with you.
Somebody help, which one should I choose between Honda Dio n' Bajaj kristal?
First off, go to the DMV and apply for a motorcycle learners permit. Usually they can also refer you to some classes. I know at least in California, the Highway Patrol offers classes, and there are some private companies, too. I had to go through that last summer to get my permit, because being under 18 I was required to take a class. A class can also help lower your insurance rates!For a bike, start out small. You'll grow into the larger bikes later, but they weigh a lot more, so it might be a bit harder to learn on. I'd recommend maybe a 500cc engine?
The easiest way to get your motorcycle license is to take an approved motorcycle safe riders training course. Almost ALL Harley shops offer this course, some even supply the motorcycle for you... Once you complete the course, you'll get your license... If you take the course , it also offers substantial savings on your insurance! You can also go to your local DMV and take the test there... but the practice riding, motorcycle, and final testing are all up to you... As for what kind of motorcycle to get for 'beginners'... That's an easy one... get the one you want to ride and keep. Too many people get a 'small' bike to learn on and they're often underpowered and you'll outgrow it WAY too soon. Smaller bikes also tend to be less forgiving than bigger ones and are geared outrageously to compensate for a smaller displacement... Hence, the scooter may well jump out from under you or skid & slide without notice or warning. SO... nothing smaller than 600cc! As a rule of thumb, bigger bikes are better balanced and more forgiving... Bottom line, get something you'll be happy with later down the road... Once you ride it off the lot, it has almost NO resale value (unless you go with Harley Davidson)
I'm chopping in my sports bike and want a Supermoto! Which one do I go for?
http://www.ama-cycle.org/check this site out.
AT LEAST a 300cc, up to MAYBE 600cc, to start.
I'd recommend to start with a decent used bike, until you get some experience, so that just in case something does happen, and odds are SOMEthing would happen (probability-- stats).
I took cycle rider's course to start, also get 10% of bike ins. for lifetime (with card, do not lose!).
believe it is essential, esp. for learning what NOT to do, and averting and preventing dangerous conditions and happenstances from becoming you on the pavement. ten years later, took the course again for a brush up. invaluable tool.
best of luck.
ride on, dude!
What do you think of the new aprillia rs50?
In the future when asking questions of this nature xrockon, you should specify your locale. States differ on procedures.Honda xr80r dirtbike problems?
In Wyoming you can obtain a motorcycle learner permit at age 15. If you take and pass the MSF class, you will not be required to take the road test to obtain your motorcycle endorsement. The MSF class is sponsored by the Wyoming Dept. of Trans. and costs $15 for a weekend class. They supply the motorcycles and you can choose either a sportbike style or a roadbike style. I think they still use Honda 250 Rebels and Kawasaki Ninja 250 bikes.
What is the fastest production motorcycle out today after the y2k and what is its top speed?
After you reach 16 and have passed the MSF class you will have a full motorcycle licence.
And both of those bikes I mentioned that the class uses are good beginner bikes. Both are forgiving for the novice rider, both are easy to work on with parts readily available. And both hold their value fairly well so when you are ready for a bigger bike you can recover the majority of what you spent on them.
What is the size of kawasaki eliminator carbulator jet holder ?
I recommend taking a motorcycle class. This takes one weekend, where they will have you riding a school bike, having class sessions, and watching videos. At the end of the class there's a test. In most states, passing the test will earn you a license.My dirt bike isnt getting any compression when i try to start it?
As for a good first bike, I'd recommend staying under 50 hp, and getting one that's light enough that you can easily pick it up if it falls over. And make sure you can get both feet flat on the ground while sitting in the saddle. Other than that, get one you're comfortable with.
Hwhat is value of chituma 125cc motorcycle 2005 secondhand?
Crazy at it may sound, get a moped. Usually, u need no license...just a tag. Some states, like here in Florida do not require a car license, u can get a motorcycle only. otherwise, it's an endorsement on the reg lic. Also there is no requir. for ins here if u have $10K in the bank. No insurance required and no helmat. For any bike over 90cc I recommned riding gear. Also hang out where there are bikes...listen to the storries. Just like the answers above.What oil do I put in the crankcase of my 1999 CR 125?
Almost any city will have a motorcycle class. They usually last about two days and cost around $200. They'll teach you all the basics and at the end of the course you'll take a test. If you pass, this usually means that when you go to the DMV to get your license you won't have to take a road test, only a written one.The size of the bike would depend on your height, weight, etc. Still, I wouldn't go any higher than a 600. My first bike is a gsxr600 and she's great! Big difference between that and a 1000.
If you are from Canada you can get your license when you turn 16 years of age. You get the hand book and study it and then take your written first then your road test. And I suggest you buy a Harley sportster first then when you get use to that you can go bigger.
