Re: Hopefully New Biker Soon

[quote=PAULED;18003]Morning All, thanks for the replies.

I think you may be right, best to get the DAS done first on the 500cc and see how they feel, handle. The bike looks nice thou. Do you think they will bring out a 600 version? Now that would be nice.

Agree with you about the 1000...it looks great. Big first bike tho'. You could try a hornet 600. They are a good looking bike with loads of stomp.

Niki & Gaz

Monday morning..........let the stress begin !!

The new 1000 looks fantastic - if you want it go for it - but be CAREFUL.

OR

Try a 600RR - same sort of performance (!!) - but lighter....

Honda CBR 600RR and proud!!

Hi Singh,

Agree the 1000 does look fantastic, but what I think I will end up doing, is start with a 600 to gain some experience. And maybe then go for the cb1000r next season. Might come down in price a bit by then.

Your never too late mate, i'm 43 and very new to Biking. I only wish I'd have had my mid-life crisis in my twenties, what a waste of Biking years, good luck with your DAS...
