First bike Aprilia RS 250 GP1. First time taken out was 6am last xmas. Rode through Queen St and central auckland while the streets were empty to practice using the clutch and all the other things. Wrists got a bit sore so headed towards the Harbour bridge for a bit of a cruise and see what motorway riding is like. I was the only one on it from memory. Gave it the guts right at the bottom and she screamed into life. Let's say the turtles head popped out when the rpms got to about 8000rpm. It was one of the best Xmas mornings in my life.

Those new(ish) GN250's.... rusty pieces of crap, with such crappy front disc brake you have to use the rear brake to actually stop and tyres that arent' really tyres.

They are a poor relations (inbred at that) to the 20+year old GN250, CB250 etc, and quite frankly I am embrassed for Suzuki for bringing such crap to this country. They are as bad as those Scooters that lawn mower shops are selling (that can do the spped limit so the owners ride in the gutters... f me)

The Yamaha Scorpion 225 is a good example of a cheap learners bike that isn't dangerous or unstable.

My first bike was a Tas Taka 100 (farm bike), for 170 bucks. I had a lot of fun on that old machine.

I went to school with a guy who had a Kawasaki 500 triple as his first bike, at the age of 16. He dropped it at least once a week, and almost inevitably wrote it off.
Second bike was a Kawasaki 900 (after he'd recovered)..
I started more 'sensibly' on a CB175 twin. Mind you, that could do 85mph, topped out in 5th, with a bit of a downhill. Nothing sensible about my riding though, and I wrote it off.

, they had the most savage kickback of any bike ive ever started. Or nearly started in this case.
