Default What cc did you start on?
We always read about people posting up advice on what kind of first bike to get based on engine size. So what did everyone actually start on?

Feel free to add you bike to the poll along with the engine size if it isn't already listed (I just threw up a few of the mainstream).

Example:

Kawasaki Ninja 250cc

No dirtbikes, please.
