I'm new to biking need some information

[timalex]

Hi there.
I am in need to get a bike very fast and i need some information to help me get by.
Firstly i need to get a bike, As any keen learner i am keen on a Ninja as they are fairly common bikes and are not that expensive. So i have also been advised to look at a KTM Enduro bike or alike. What i need to know is a good bike for someone about 6"2 and 70 KG's that doesnt have much muscle and commuting from northshore to central auckland on the motorway twice a day.

Once i have a bike sorted and bought i will also need to obtain a license. That i am studying right now. Do i need that Basic handling skills certificate? And for that Basic handling skills certificate do i need my own bike?
And finally once all that is completed i need to also get gear so what brands you recommend and how much i should be spending considering im doing motorway travel at peak hours or nights. Also what are my time frames on a learners on a bike?

Please if i missed anything give me a hand with it and if someone is selling a bike in auckland area that can be delivered to takapuna that interests me?
But anyway.

Thanks

What i was hoping to get out of you was along the lines of, Okay i see you like these styled bikes can i recommend this or my friend is selling one of these. Not just yes.
Why do you bother to put just yes when you dont even have a answer worth anyone's time.
Jesus, i was thinking this was a helpful community.

What people are trying to say is that this question has been asked over and over. Look at some of the older threads for most of the answers, then, if you still can't find what you're looking for, ask a specific question.

Yes was also a pretty good answer...

It is a helpful community, your new, we want to see how your react.
Each of the bikes you have mentioned will have been discussed within these forums at some time.
Enter the name of the bike into the search engine..push go.
The same with riding gear....
The same with lots and lots of stuff.
Dredging the old threads can reveal a heap of information.
But dont feed the trolls.

Dear sweet lord, you have some learning to do.

[Akzle]

[BigAl]

IIIIIIIiiiiiii am a large penis.

Better?

To Op, this is all stuff you need to know for your KB experience

[ducatilover]

I suggest trying as many bikes for size as you can
My picks for a tall chap would be:
XJR400
ZZR400
ER-5
EX400
GS500

Also try on a heap of gear and see what you find comfortable, and don't be too cheap with your gear, it may save your life.

As for learning the riding stuffs:
Do your theory and practical and try get in to a training course.
Potter around carparks etc and take it easy.

Welcome to KB, there are more idiots than useful people here, Akzle said he has a large penis.
