It seems a lot of people like to ask questions but really already have their minds made up.

BTW - FZR FTW!

Nice troll OP, 21 responses with 3 sentences is a solid effort.

BTW if it matters. Stay small and old for first bike.

Where's RacerX when you need him

Start with something smaller man... small, used, and easy to fix. Beat the piss out of it.

Be sure to invest in decent gear.

After you're done beating the piss out of it, get another bike that you actually want to keep for a while.

Turbo Busa, with a +2 front -3 rear sprocket gearing....

regardless of riding in the twisties or not... you don't wanna start on a 1000cc bike... it's a very steep learning curve on a 600... on a 1000 it's so steep you actually miss out on learning things because your too busy trying to keep the thing on two wheels.

Seriously, your dick isn't big enough if you don't ride a liter bike (yay fireblade!)

This is totally a troll thread, but whatever. Get an SV or a 600cc bike. You'll be faster in the canyons.
