Nice....though whomever owned it before you messed up a nice yellow/black sticker scheme. I like that 2000 Gixxer scheme the best, out of the yellow/black colors.

Compared to getting a 1000cc or something. Whats wrong with starting out with a 750? ive ridden one before i had a bike i have no probs handling this i was looking at first at gettin an r6 but people i know with bikes said get a 750 over an r6 cause u will get bored with it and want a bigger bike so start off with a bigger one

750 for your first bike seems like a good choice

You believed the dealer? BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

You've significantly downgraded your chances of learning to ride a bike properly and significantly upgraded your chances of crashing. What really pisses me off is that noobs like you are the ones who drive insurance up so high on supersports.

From one salesman talking about another...the only possible reason a motorcycle salesman would say that is because he makes more money off it.

Every motorcycle salesman won't sell anything above a 750 (even most of the time sell a 750) to someone unless they can prove they've got at least like 6-12mths daily/regular riding experience.

Now thats a bunch of bullshit! Its the idiots out there who see how fast they can go and doing wheelies, stunts and **** that drive up the price of insurance not "noobs" as you so aptly put it first the dealer wasnt the first person to tell me that i had heard it from my friend i work with and his roomate who both have been riding for 8 years i put stock in what they say, u actually think i would take any car salesman seriously HA im dumb but not that dumb you should open your mind some instead of drawing to such a quick conclusion that i WILL crash and drive up the rates. Oh and could you expand on what "learning to ride a bike properly" entails. I think taking the MSF class is learning to ride quite properly
