Hi

Off-topic Newbies

Just joined the forum so here i am to say hi to you all

Been riding my YBR125 for just over a year now, pass my DAS 3 weeks ago

Looking for a used bigger bike (600?), what to get? how much to pay?

Starting to ride is probably the best thing I’ve ever done, though it can be lonely out there sometimes, i don’t know anyone who rides. However I have found riding alone to be great fun, just riding all over the place, going where ever you want - so i do enjoy that

I ride every day, regardless of the weather, I live in Shoreditch (central London)

Hope i can get to know some people on the forum to ride out with from time to time

Hi and welcome to LB.

Take your time and choose your first big bike carefully – even though a voice in your head will make you want to buy everything you see! :stuck_out_tongue:

welcome to lb mate! As for your first big bike - if you live around shoreditch, get into motoden and give a hornet a go, or into george white and have a go on a FZ6 or something like that!:smiley:

thanks for all the replies, advice and suggestions

Well, i’ve done it, bought a bike! picking it up next week
A Yamaha FZ6 2004, i foolishly fell in love with it :w00t:

just got to go through the mad process that is insurance

anyway i’m excited and hope that it turns out to be what i want?
I’m sure it will be a little more fun than my YBR?
