I know how to ride but havnt got my licence yet.I basically want to know what you guys think are good entry level bikes, with nice power, handling and looks.I learnt to ride on a yamaha ttr125cc dirt bike, and have been riding a mates cbr250rr. a friend suggested the suzuki gsxr250r as a starter, but the headlights look weird, similar to the cbr.any suggestions? I think a bike would save me on fuel and parking at uni Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CatsXR Member 18 Member For: 18y 9m 30d Location: Adelaide, S.A Posted 22/01/07 10:59 AM Share Posted 22/01/07 10:59 AM If u want entry level sports try the Kawasaki zx2r/zxr250/ninja 250 they have so many names. fairly nice looking bike but they have this funky pipe into fuel tank arrangement, you'll know what I mean when u see itThere is also the Aprilia RS125/250 but they're more than u want to spend. These are arguably the best small cube bikes, but pricey... :(Good Luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
