I'm thinking of maybe getting a bike next summer. I'm a noob. no knowledge at all really.
I'm trying to get info on type of bike that would be better. obviously something below 600 would be the best, but are those bikes easy to sell? Would I be able to get a GSX-R 600 and put some kind of restrictor so I don't kill myself?
I'd love to get a street-fighter-esque bike, or something like a supermoto. any smaller cc bikes in those classes? The way I see it is I'd rather get something bigger that I can have for a while, than say get a Ninja 250R that I can't sell afterwards that I'm stuck riding because I don't want it just sitting.
I also really like bobbers. Would that be a good starting point? I assume the insurance on an 80's bike is relatively cheap (considering I'm in Ontario and will be 21 in the spring). Does skill/knowledge of driving that type of bike transfer to a sport bike?
Any and all help appreciated.
