    Welcome to the most disorganised, affectionately abusive and most concentrated collection of insane individuals on two wheels. Also known as Kiwi Biker, or KB, or for some, "LIFE".

    Nah, its not that bad.

    What kind of horse do you have? my partner has two ponies, kaimanuwas or some shit, I don't know how to spell it correctly. Anyway, I quite like horses, they're a bit like motorcycles for me, but not quite.

    Connemara, oh now theres a interesting horse (for me at least), my partner has one mare in particular which is extremely flighty and is unridable, however it seems to like me, probably because I treat them both like dogs (in a nice way).

    A learner bike? well I guess anything between 150cc and 250cc is a good start, however you need to choose what style of bike and try to imagine how much confidence you already have in regards to riding.

    I think one of the most common bikes for females is a Suzuki FXR150 or a Suzuki GN250, the first is a sporty sort of bike and the GN is a cruiser. Your best bet would be to look around and make a decision about the type of bike you want, then go from there.

    From memory, you were quite a small chick but judging from your attitude you'd pickup riding no problem - a Honda CBR250 might be a good bike for you. Sporty looking thing and pretty cheap too.

    By the way, I was the one on that Red Hyosung who asked Bruce if you were his Sister/Girlfriend haha.

    Cool

    Learner bike... depends on if you like Cruiser, tourers or sportbikes.

    The others can tell you about the sportbike /tourer bikes.

    But if you like cruiser style bikes...

    I highly recommend the Yamaha Virago 250cc cruiser.

    Or go and learn on a Suzuki GN250cc.

    Or the EL250cc is another nice learner like...

    The Virago is great in the city to commute on and also great to ride out and about in the country as well.

    But go into the bike shops and sit on all the different bikes that range from 150 to 250cc's to see what you are comfortable on... and also if you can reach the ground with both feet.

    You will find a bike that you will love and buy it...
    Ask any questions on here, about the bike that you fall for and someone will be able to tell you about it if its really ok for a learner.

    Good luck in finding your ideal bike for you.

    Oh yeah and welcome to KB.



    PS: ask LB for a payrise.... since you now need to buy a bike... LB will give you that payrise... cos he is a good dude...

    Ha, you came here to learn about bikes
    All you'll get here is opinions, then more opinions then a big shit fight about who's right All very entertaining to watch though

    Welcome aboard, pull up a nice comfy chair and enjoy the show.

    Wondering when you were going to show your face? No one here actully has a clue what they are talking about so i wouldn't ask for advice, i lnly just found out there's more to motorbikes then wheelies and stoppies, you can go round corners n shit.
    Have to drag you (not literally i hope) down SH22 to give you a real bike experiance and then you can decide weather you want a bike or not .

    See ya tonight.
