Hi, i'm keen to get out there and start racing. I have currently got a bmw race car, but the costs of racing a car are waaaay too high for a uni student so i am planning to sell this and take up bike racing.
I was thinking of starting out in something along the lines of streetstock, or minilights with the VMCC series. Just interested in some opinions as to what would be the best option both for a beginner, and to move on with. (If possible i'd rather have a bike which can do several classes).
So I've basically got a list including:
Kawasaki KR150 - Not much information on the net about these, anyone know the stats? (power, weight, dimensions etc)
RG150 - Not many local, and seem to cost $3-500 more than a KR
GSXR250 - More expensive again, but possibly more reliable?
CBR250 - A few cheap, fixable ones around so not too pricy
ZXR250 - Same story as CBR
I would also be using this bike on the road until i get my full licence (when i can be bothered going for it). Most likely wont race it until i've stopped using it on the road.
Another important thing for me is comfort, as i am 6'3" and 70kg, so quite tall and skinny.... i definitely do not want a tiny little bike.
Cheers in advance for your input![]()
