A couple of my friends started on ninja 250's, but after seeing them bored after a week of riding, I decided I would skip that step. I rode a couple of their 250's a few times and caught on really quick. I never had a dirt bike as a kid or anything, but I spent plenty of time on them out at my grandparents farm.
Let me know what you think!
i think your friends are doing something wrong if they're "bored" with a 250.
i think you should've started on a 250, too. you picked the wrong bike to start on...
welcome aboard anyhow...

I've got 3 friends with 250's. And one of them has an '09 R6 now after riding the 250 for a few weeks. I do not doubt that it would have helped me crisp up the fundamentals before moving onto a bike that can and will kill me if not respected. I just made the decision that extreme caution and a far from over-confident attitude is going to be what keeps me alive. The guy I bought this bike from used it to learn himself.
As I said before, I have a pretty good chunk of time ahead of me before I ever get out on the streets. I've got gear to buy and classes to take. And I'm gonna be spending some more time on my friend's 250's to really make sure I have the fundamentals down.
I do appreciate the concern, and I understand why. This bike can and will kill me.

All true statements but when somebody gets a bike they understand going down fcuks them AND most understand 600's are beastly.
How bout a welcome to the forum! The bike looks great especially with those mods for the price. I know you'll love it man be safe and enjoy.
Our community here is, in my opinion, the best in the motorcycle forums so make sure to read up!
I'd like to think I'm taking this whole thing more cautiously than most. I'm definitely not one to hop on and act like she's going to be my bitch.
Thanks for the welcome
