If you can find one a 250 Hornet would be ideal.

It's nice and tall, naked, so minimal damage should you drop it, hondas are bloody reliable (the corrollas of bikes) and its a good commuter but still shit loads of fun in the corners when your confidance AND skills improve.

Not to mention great resale as they are highly reguarded 250's of the naked varity.

I'm serious.......this is the best advise in the world, im like yoda but white and heaps taller.

Get an exemption and get a SV650. A quick search for 'license exemption' will get you lots of information.

As previously mentioned, Jamie @ Holeshot is a top dude. Mt Eden's sales team is also very good, won't comment on their workshop though..

yea Jaimie at holeshot is definitly a top dude!! Don't worry about your size since you just want the bike to get to your full on, I have seen huge people riding GN's Scorpio's etc> I actually know a guy about your height who just sits nearly on the pasenger seat of his GN and he gets around fine!! LOL
Also learning on a smaller bike will give you HEAPS more confidence and your skills will develop wayyy quicker. On a small bike you can learn what it feels like for the bike to slide or bump around a bit and you can thrash the shit out of it withoiut scaring yourself out of biking for good! :

I will prob get shot for saying this!
Try a hyosung. bigger bike for you.
I am 5 11ish and around 110kg and works well for me , hubba gubba is taller than me and rides one and finds them comfortable also.
They are a little under powered for the size but if you are only learning on it then what does it matter? i commute from Ranui to Penrose on mine everyday and it works well.
Ok que the Hyo hatters now.......

A noob here. Planning on getting into the 2 wheel world. Keen on getting a brand new Yammy Scorpio 225cc as my first learner bike mainly since theres no 2nd hand ones around, and it seems pretty good bang for buck at roughly $4k on road. I'm 6'2" 105kg so hopefully it'll be big enough, but its really a bridging bike to get through the learning process on.

So where would y'all suggest I go to get one? I live on the shore in Jafaland. Keen to go somewhere with slick prices and somwhere to begin a service relationship with.

Get yourself a DL4 form and exemption to ride a larger bike
