It just show us all how versataile it is... Must be good if they like it!!!

Of all the girls I have had (all 4 of them) they have yet wanted to be on a cruiser bike, they all tend to like the sexy sports look...

HD is a nice bike to look at, but not something I would like to own. They are to noisy (wrong noise), one burnt my pants (was going to work) so they are unpractical (I just borrowed that)... Nah... Nice to look at, but it ends there for ME- others will think differently. Just enjoy your bike and remember that all bikes have soul...

Even the little honda wave has soul...

Z1000 is pure sex, that HD in the avetar is fugly!!!

I am 186 tall, fat! is the M795 to small??? Do I have to buy the z1000???

It would make sense if that came as it shares a few components with the monster... according to one of the big bike magazines... (796 monster vs 796 hyper)... same would go for the asain models...

Not sure I agree with you there CMX,

I had the CBR 250, bloody good bike, fast, easy, and very comfy- almost a perfect bike... ALMOST...

if the new rider is sensible, and I do hope that he is, it is not a problem to learn on a ER6F/N, due to the easiness to their rides.

The larger bikes has larger tires, better handling, better brakes, better ABS, more power to get out of situations (depending on where he lives, how fast can he really go)?

It is easy to say that it is dangerous to learn to ride on a bigger bike, but is it really? If he feels comfortable with that, then I can see no problems... As long as he takes his time and realize that with great power, comes great responsebility...
I also got the feeling that this guy does not have a high limit to spend on this bike, he should therefore not be as dumb as me and buy one bike to then sell it and buy another one within a year....

That said, the CBR 250 is probably the most practical bike in Thailand (sport bike style), cheap, easy and comfy. speed, well, I had mine to 159 once, and that is fast enough (unless you like speed or travel long distances)...

Each for his own, but if I did not like to faster than 150kmph, I would still be on the CBR today (unless my mech had f...ed it up like he did)...
