Hi Guys am wanting to get into riding. Did a few lessons when I was 14-15 didn't get licence then as got rid of bike I was going to ride (old gn250).
Have done a wee bit of trail riding with mates have driven cars and a 50cc scooter for a while. Had a few accidents including writing off said scooter.
Am getting licence and handling cert around the 28th of april and getting a bike hopefully then also.
Having an argument with my mum as she doesn't want me to go new As I am thinking of a Kawasaki Ninja 250R 2008 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kawasaki_Ninja_250R
Instead of my original plan to get a 1994 honda cbr250rr.
My mum wants me to get something older as she says they will go slower. I point out as I have friends on bikes that they will do similar speeds and as I will be conditioning the Ninja I will be going slow.
Was wondering what your guys thoughts where on this I am willing to spend 9k including 2k of gear for a sports bike and am planning on getting the gear listed below.
Shift '07 Dyer Hybrid Jacket
Nolan N102 Flip Top Helmet
Sidi B2 Race Boot
Shift Brawler Glove
Shift '08 Equator SS Pants
Thank you for all thoughts.
