This ismy thought if you have a buddy with a bike ask they if you can practice and let them help you learn to ride. When your good and ready ride it to your parents place and say you just bought it, see what they say, whats the worse that can happen they tell you to move out then you tell them the truth.

600s are not dangerous, they are wayyyyyyyy to slow and once u get "used" to the power theres no chance of a wreck so u can save money by not having to buy gear. but within like 2 months youre gonna want a hi-busa.

Hales would know he's a motorcycle salesman. Salesman don't lie about anything!

This is a pretty easy thing to understand man. You still live with your parents. You need to get money and move out of the house. Your parents probably just wantyou not to spend money on stuff you want instead of money on a house or apartment. If you're old enough to buy a sport bike, you should already have a house of your own or at least an apartment mom and dad aren't paying for.

Just listen to your dad, you are living with him so that means you go by his rules. Seems harsh, but he might just be saving your ***. Get a dirt bike and ride some show him you are responsible, arguing with him about it just makes it worse. If you show him you are mature enough to take his advice he might lighten up. Don't rush it, also you are wanting a pretty bad *** bike too.

my mom never told me that i couldn't have one, my dad pretty much helped me get it, but my whole family rides so they were happy to see me gettin involved in the sport. But they knew I was responsible and that I could handle it. My mom still worries about me, but thats what parents do. Respect it, they are only looking out for you. He loves you and its not that he doesnt want you to have what you want, he just wants to make sure you are safe.

His house his rules- don't like it then move the hell out, too bad, so sad.

That's life- deal with it.

I had to move out before I could get a bike. my dad has rode bikes for 20 years, my mom rides on the back, but yet she still wouldnt let me get a bike.So I waited until I moved out.

id say listen to your old man. besides you could get into it and lose intrest real fast. from my experience these are not cheap toys. im spending around 200 bucks ever two weeks on mine for parts and accessories and now i dont even want to ride any more. so now that i have spent over 7000 bucks on it i cant even get 4500 back out of it.

on a side note damn some of you guys moved out real young. i moved out when i was 20 and i wish i stayied a lot longer and built up my finances but thats just me. i work and go to school full time and it make real long weeks in the fall and spring. while im oing to school i dont get a day off i work 3 12 hours shifts on the weekend and then spend my days at school from 8-4 the other 4 days a week.

my take on it. kid say your money go to college get a good job then buy the toys you want after you have a good carear.
