Looking for advice

[AVGWarhawk]

I believe it is Japan that has certain levels of CC that the rider must pass before going to a higher CC bike. In short, they can not get a FJ1200 croch rocket to go 150+ the first day out. They start on a scooter. It is like crawling before you walk. With that said, get a bike that you can physically handle. I understand some tests for a license require you lay the bike on it's side and pick it up again. If you can not physically do this you fail the test. Get a bike that is not overpowered. You are attempting to pass a test. Again, a Harley hog might not be your best pick for this. Something like an old Honda Rebel. Once you learn to ride on something a bit slow and get the license then go for the bigger bike.

One word of advise...ride like know one sees you because 9 time out of 10 they do not see you.

Good Luck!
