    New to biking (bc4eva)

    I've never had a bike before and need to know what type of bike to get, I have ridden an XL 250 (1984)to Ponsonby and never been able to pull chicks, where am I going wrong?

    What kind of bike could increase my rep.

    sweet thanks for the advice, is a Ducati a Japanese bike? I was told that a Aquila was meant to be real good. Is that true?

    The GT250R (google it) gets a lot of respect from the public. It LOOKS like a serious contender while being a genuine learner bike. It is easy for experienced riders to pick faults with it, but for styling bang for the buck they are nearly without peer. Pick up a tidy second hand one for 4k and a VERY tidy 2nd hand one for 5.5k

    By the time folks click its just a learner bike you will be onto bigger and better things.

    Definately. A cheap, sparkling white wine.

    Beware of hangover's though.
