great idea....i started with a 900 kawasaki ninja and it only cost me 800 dollars...

 

thanks for the input guys, i really appreciate it.

I've pretty much narrowed it down between three bikes, a F2, F3, or 900rr, and i'm so confused about what to get. i want a good amout of power but i want a bike that is really easy to ride and user friendly ( rode my buddies 2005 R1 the other night and scared the crap outta myslef LOL ). And not to mention i'm kinda strapped for cash at the moment and i want the most bang for my buck, so what bike will best fit me?

 

you say that you are straped for cash? my advise, buy your riding gear first. if you purchase your bike before your gear, you are more likely to spend all of your money on your bike and ride without all the proper gear. that being said, you will love street bikes as opposed to dirtbikes. i spent years riding offroad only before buying a street bike. the lower center of gravity and under 4-foot seat heights make low speed manuvering much easier. one last note, buy gloves that are street bike specific (read LEATHER.) i used to wear my fox gloves because they are very comfortable untill i went down and had the dreaded "hamburger hands." it sucks not being able to wipe your own ***! lol. buy a bike, enjoy the hell out of it, and let us all know what you decide.

 

I would have to say go with the 600's. I just would never encourage a new rider to jump on something with more power than that. It just takes a little too much throttle for a 900 or 1k to get away from you. I watched that happen with a lot of guys that were a little to macho for their own good.

 

Welcome, Ditto on the get a used bike 1st comments.

 

So what would be a better bike a F2 or f3?

 

Welcome to the site. I would suggest a used bike for sure. Maybe around a 600 or so and then go up if you want to. Good luck.

 

I started out on a 1990 Honda VTR Interceptor 250, i then imeditatly did a very squid thing and bought a really used 1984 Honda 1000,
way to much bike for me, I now ride the most comfortable ride ive own by far the 05 600 RR.

Start small and used is my advice . if ya accidentally get squirlly on a used bike rather then a new one it hurts less
