I have no experience except being a passenger and I won't claim to have any knowledge but I'm very interested in owning a street bike some day.
My only problem is, I'm about 5'2" and my feet don't touch the ground on any bike I've attempted to sit on. I can touch w/ tippy toes but that scares me.
Anyone else short who rides?

Those things can't be safe for 3 yr olds.

Don't know what everyone else is talking about, but you totally need a Yamaha R6. You can lower it and won't have any problems!  |

she would kill herself on an R6.. ignore sean *bonk bonk bonk!*
good learning bike is gonna be the Kawasaki 250R, its cheap and when you drop it (And you will drop the bike) its easy to fix and when you're done you can sell it or throw it away. then step up to a Suzuki Katana; or a Raptor...
YZF series bikes do not joke around once you get passed 2nd gear.

Yeah, I wasn't planning on learning w/ the R6. I would like to move up to it someday though.
Everyone has told me that I will lay down my first bike. =/ And I'm well aware that anytime I get on a bike, it might be my last day alive but I only live once and I'm crazy like that.  I love the rush... without going overboard. |

I'm thinking about getting an R6. I've been practicing for a while now. And I think I'm ready. I just got to get used to the fact that I get a B**** Everytime I ride one. :lmao:
I seriously am in need of some suggestions on this.
