Sportbikes don't look too comfortable

I've been thinking about getting a sportbike, but they don't look like they'll keep me comfortable for long periods of time. They also look like they might hurt my back if I stay curled down like that all the time. So could someone whose had or has a sportbike. :rolleyes: Thanx:)

I meant to say "so could anyone who had or has a sportbike tell me if they are comfortable and/or how long they can stand the position until it starts hurting.":sun:

Some sportbikes aren't comfortable, and some can be.

Just keep in mind what many of the sportbikes are made for: racing. You don't need to have a comfy seat and body position for a race; You want aerodynamics. But many companies realize that racing isn't what some of these bikes are actually used for.

Many manufacturers offer "sport touring" bikes that have the "get-up-and-go" of the sport side with the comfort and body positioning meant for riding the long haul. Not to mention these bikes attract a slightly different crowd of riders, and insurance on them is often cheaper.

Just know your body's limitations, and shop to cater to you, not what your brain says "looks so cool". ;) :D

I really appreciate the information you gave me and will take it into consideration :sun: I could probably handle it, but I just want to look at every aspect before I go about purchasing one of these. I don't want anything unexpected happening :D Well, thanx again, and if anyone else has an opinion...

My R6 was a little uncomfortable when I first got it, but after awhile you build up resistance to the weight on your front arms, and taking long trips becomes quite easy. The best way to tell what bike will be more comfortable for you, is to just go and sit on it at a dealership.

btw, have you owned a motorcycle before?

Thanx :) Well, I'll probably get a sportbike and can probably fgure out a good riding position. And no, I have never owned one.

When bike shopping, don't forget to factor out a solid $500+ for helmet and gear. Please, no squidly "I'm too good for that..." Cause that's when you hit the asphalt and wish you hadn't been too good ;)

R1-Rider's right, go to the dealer and sit on a few of the 600's to determine which one is the most comfortable. Ask the salesperson to anchor the bike by the handlebars so you can sit on her as you would if you were riding. After the salesperson has held you up, place your feet on the floor and slowly rock the bike side to side to determine how heavy she feels between your legs. Remember, the majority of Sportbikes aren't for long rides like Touring Bikes but one of the more comfortable Sportbikes would be the Honda F4i. It combines decent power with a very comfortable riding position. Also, you can pay a little extra and buy a Corbin seat which will provide your tush with a more comfortable seat. One last thing, don't get caught up in the "cc" hype! If this will be your first bike, I suggest you purchase a 600 and throw that around town for a season or two and then upgrade. DON'T LET YOUR FRIENDS INFLUENCE YOU TO BUY SOMETHING LARGER! I've met more beginner riders than I can remember who have jumped out there and bought the current "beasts" of Sportbikes - GSX-R100 (Gixxer 1K) or R1 and cracked the throttle and that's the last thing they remember. Power is good but without experience and control, it will cause you to have an accident. These two bikes have a tremendous amount of torque-to-weight-ratio and will come up very easily without the clutch if your not careful. If you have any other questions regarding Sportbikes, shoot me an email or PM.

Well if you have never owned a motorcycle, or have never seriously driven one for over a year, then do not buy a sportsbike.

You do not need to tell me you have ridden motorcycles or dirtbikes before, if you have not owned a motorcycle, then you do not have the necessary experience to handle a sportsbike. There are plenty of motorcycles out there that are very fast, but to just hop on a sportsbike is suicidal, not kidding. I am not trying to scare you, although that would probably be more helpful, but please don't let your ego get the best of you.

If you would like some more help and suggestions please feel free to ask as I am more then willing to give my time, but only if your intent is on buying a motorcycle within your limits.

Also talk to SaturnTangerine, she may be a girl :p, but she has a good head on her shoulders.

a honda hornet would be a nice bike to learn on. or maybe you could even go for a 400cc bike. when you've gained enough experience then thats the time to go up if you ever choose to.

sometimes bike size can be tempting but you got to learn to walk before you can run.

just something intresting. just came from the local track and there were guys practicing for a race. these guys were on ducati 748s, 998s, honda f4i, r6s, r1s. the current champion was also on track and following all these guys at their tails... and i mean that close. guess what the champ was riding? he was on a scooter!!!!! damn baby!!! :devil:

Thanx sooooooooooo much for the words of GREAT advice:D
And thanx to everyone else also :sun: I will take in everyone's advice in thoroughy! I still don't really know what bike I want; though :(

Oh, WAIT :thinkerg: I know. I can get the new Honda CBR600F4i or Honda CB600RR. They both look extremely cool (No, that's not all that I'm looking for. It's an added bonus, I guess :sun: ) and they are 600 cc's or less. Check 'em out, (This is for the 600RR)
http://www.hondamotorcycles.com/motorcycles/sport/specs.asp?ModelName=CBR600RR&ModelYear=2003&ModelId=MCPREVMEE&w=545&h=434
and, (this is for the 600CBRF4i)
http://www.hondamotorcycles.com/motorcycles/sport/model.asp?ModelName=CBR600F4i&ModelYear=2003&ModelId=CBR600F43
Well, thanx again everybody
:cool:

Um, go F4i out of those 2. The new 600RR is meant to WHIP azz on the track, NOT nice on newbies...

You can buy my bike. Perfect beginner's bike at 500cc's, and with pipe and jet it could be upgraded to be a lil more of a beast. ;)

Yeah! I was leaning more towards the F4i anyways :sun: By the way, what do you think about the Yamaha YZF-R6? And could you show me some pictures of you bike or something? Thanx :frog:

I know its tempting to go buy a sport bike. In my opinion, a 600cc sportbike is too much for a new rider.

These bikes can accelerate faster than almost every car on the road.

A new rider getting on a 600 would be like a 16year old learning to drive in a Ferrari F50. Eventualy something is going to go wrong.

If you decide to get a bike, please take the MSF course. www.msf-use.org http://www.msf-usa.org/gifs/fullsplash.gif

You will learns lots of valuable info in the MSF course.

I will make my usual recomendation.. look at the Suzuki SV650. It is a decent bike. It has been very succesful at the track.

Getting to the topic....
The Honda CBR F4 has a more upright position than other sport bikes. I can be better on long hauls.

THe GSXR and R6 are race replicas. They are meant to be raced. They are not very comfortable on long trips.

On my GSXR 1000, I can do about 400 miles in a day max. I found that if I go about 90 or so, the wind helps lift my body weight off of my wrists. But, the cops dont like people traveling at that speed. :D

Thanx, and, uh, I have a quick question:) How long did you ride before getting a GSX-R1000? And, I think that it would cost alot of money to keep buying bikes like that to fit your level. So, could someone tell me a good bike for my money and skill that would last me for a long time (And I also wouldn't mind it looking a little bit appealing)? And also, how long would I probably need to ride before getting something like a Hayabusa (Which is my dream bike). I really like the 2003 all black one (which I attached a picture of). But aside from that, I just really need some recommendations and suggestions on skill level and what I should do.C:\Documents and Settings\xp\My Documents\My Pictures\1300c.jpg

well, the bus is out of most ppls league, so don't even worry about it right now. Once you get riding you will think differently of the bike after a few track days or passes through the canyon.

As far as motorcycles, I would suggest a F3 or F4i honda cbr600, they are both appealing, fast, and much more rider forgiving then most of the other 600cc sport bikes.

I started out on a 1980 Suzuki GS550, 6 months later I got a Kawasaki Vulcan 750, 6 months later I got a gsx1100r, 6 months later I got a R6 (crashed the gsx), 6 months later I got my R1. The first major step was from my first GS550 to my Vulcan that I still own, it was much more power then I was used to, and fit me for quite awhile. Even though it gets beat by the V8 muscle cars at high speeds, it will dog them up to 90. So I would start out small, and make sure you have an experienced friend who can help you along the way.

Thank you soooooooooo much!:D That information was great and I learned alot about what I need to go through to gradually build and prepare myself for higher cc bikes. Thanx again, and your information was of great help.:flash: In the meantime, I'll be picking a bike (Most likely a honda):sun: Thanx again guys.

No problem, just be sure to buy gear. (lid, leathers, gloves, boots)

...And make sure you wear it.

While we're somewhat on this topic, and I don't feel like starting a new thread to ask the same question, what would you guys say to a Kawasaki Ninja 500 as a first bike for someone who has absolutely NO riding experience?

No, Kawi sucks... j/k... but they should buy MY Suzuki GS500 ;)

500's are GREAT starter bikes for total newbies.

yes, 500s are great bikes to start out on, i started on a GS550 (mines bigger saturn :P.. er wait you aren't a guy hehe), and couldnt have asked for a more perfect bike.

Do you think that I could handle a Triumph 955i Daytona? If not, how long do you think I would have to ride in order to get one?

By the way, I'm sooooooooo happy they got the red color back for the Daytona 955i for 2003!!!

hmm lets see, can you handle a 955i.... ummm no. Remember this simple equation: BALLS > BRAINS = BAD. It would take you ATLEAST a good year of riding to be able to step onto a sportsbike and not endanger yourself or other people. It takes atleast a year to get your general reflexes and reactions down pat, even after a year I would still not suggest getting a sportsbike. Plus you being as young as I think you said you were, your insurance will kill you.

Sorry. I guess I wasn't thinking. I just got a little over-excited, but I'm cool now. I guess the search continues....:)

First line of advice... SCREW appearance!!!

Pardon my French, but that's all the more I can say. I hang out with ONE other girl who doesn't even have her own bike, and a bunch of guys on big sportsbikes... infact, there are several liter bikes in the group.

My point is: They don't care that you aren't starting out on a souped up crotchrocket. Heck, they're GLAD to wait back for you. If they aren't, they aren't worth riding with. And trust me, I know far too many of such guys, and you don't need that kind of trouble. Ya know how when you see 2 bikers pass eachother on the road they wave??? They don't care what you're on. You're part of the group no matter what you've got. It's really cool. Sure, I get teased for not being on a liter bike or whatever, but it's truly all in jest, and whenever I talk about getting a bigger bike EVERYONE cares about you and they tell me to keep my ego in check.

I know. Trust me I know how tempting it is to go look at some sexy Ducati or Triumph, but save yourself some drool and look at something SMALL. Remember: If you do this right, you'll have THE REST OF YOUR LIFE TO MOVE UP TO A BIGGER BIKE.

Where did they make you saturn?

Lets see....

I rode a 2 stroke Suzuki enduro for 2 years.

After that we had a Sportster and Rebel at my disposal for 6 years. I choose to ride the Rebel alot because it was a fun little bike.

then I spent 2 years or so on a Superglide. Also, I did a lot of riding on some full dress Harleys (81 FLT, and early 90's FLH's)

Then I bought a 99 GSXR 750. I rode it for 2 years, and upgraded to the GSXR 1000, All in all, I rode for over 12 years before the 1000. The 1000 is not a beginners bike. Occasionaly it scares the shit out of me. IE: accelerating out of a turn in second gear and the front end goes skyward without any sign of wanting to come back down. Honestly, I should have stayed with the 750.

Just to give you an idea of the power of the 1k... Imagine 4th gear, 90 MPH, stand up, give it a little bounce, roll on the throttle, and the front wheel will leave the ground.

IE: accelerating out of a turn in second gear and the front end goes skyward without any sign of wanting to come back down
:eek2: Yeah. I think I'll stay away from that for a century or two. And I think that I can handle a Hayabusa earlier than 12 years of riding? :rolleyes: Pleeeaazz! I would need ALOT more time. What was I thinking? Thanx for bringing me to reality (Well, maybe, who knows? Maybe I'll be better than I think.):sun:

Yes, the power of the 1liter bikes is absolutely so unnecessary it is great. I try to ride at track days as often as I can, so I am very comfortable on my bikes. But before I used to go to the track, I would scare myself about once a week just because the power of the bike is just too much. I ride my R6 at the track for a reason instead of my R1, I can pull in faster track times simply because I can ride the bike harder without worrying about tire slippage or wheel hops. However, I have been thinking of selling my R6 to get a gsxr750, because it seems to be a perfect balance for the track. It is too bad that you can't get a R7...

My friend can do a 5thgear wheelie on his 929rr, lol it is funny as shit to see, no clutch drop btw.

Aw, are you for real??? Shyte!!! My buddy just got into being an "Icy Hot Stunta" in the last month of our riding season, and he's on a 954rr. I haven't seen him wheelie yet, but I understand that he's got 3rd gear standups already. :eek:

I was wondering, and I just thought about something that seems twice as fun as a sportbike. What do you think about the BMW R1150 GS Adventure? What about the power? Do you think that it's too much for a beginner? It seems perfect for me. Here are some pictures:
http://C:\Documents and Settings\xp\My Documents\My Pictures\7.jpg

http://C:\Documents and Settings\xp\My Documents\My Pictures\base_titan_silver_marrakesh_metallic.jpg

Guess what the 1150 stands for, when you figure that out you will know the answer.

Okay, I'm the girl, but I'm not stupid...

Like R1 said, figure out what the 1150 means, and you'll have your answer. I will tell you that my first experience on a street bike was a BMW F650 GS Dakar, but I wish I hadn't. I dropped the bike (my dad's brand-new bike) and even though it's only a single cylinder, the seat height was too much, even for my long-ass legs.

My suggestion to you is to get some books about riding. I always hear great things about this book called "Twist of the wrist". I am looking for a copy of my own, actually. I beg of you, please do some more research on this topic. I love motorcycles, but you almost have to fear them to trust them.

O.k. Thanx guys. You have officially made me feel stupid! But that's o.k., I understand.:D I guess I better start thinking more before I ask. But o.k., I understand your answer.

Sorry bout that... It definately came across seeming much more harsh than I meant. I just reread it and I feel bad for making it sound so mean... But yeah, almost every bike has some number related to their CC size, so anything that is a 1 is too big (1000 CC) and anything above a 6 (600 CC) is really even too big. I'm glad I started on a 500 b/c I know I would have gotten myself into trouble either with speeding or with lack of control if I had gone any bigger to start.

i want a suziki sv650 for my first bike.. they're soooo sexy..

Suzuki's SV650 is a good first bike for the person with self-control. Nice, clean acceleration and not too heavy. Engine size is also small enough for a beginner, but not so small that you outgrow it in 2 years.

I was involved heavily with the Harleys for many years, and I didn't want to buy a sport bike. Honestly, I never even really considered buying one, or even wanting one. I wanted to build up a sportster and give it some cafe style. One day in '98 one of my buddies came over to my house with his GSXR 750. When I took it out for a ride, there was no looking back.

I know some guys that have started riding on 750's and 929's as their first bike ever. THey do OK, but they are still afraid of the bike. They never really learned how to turn and stop properly. About al they can do is crack the throttle and go straight.

Well, thanx for the info, man. I definately don't want to be scared of my bike. I think that I've decided that I want to start out with a Kawasaki Ninja 250 to get started. What do you guys think?

VERY responsible call.

Thanx!:p Yeah, I think that I suddenly think became more mature or something.:sun: I'm thinking ALOT more about decisions I make. Here's my plan,
(Take course first of course)
1st bike-Ninja 250 for a year or two
2nd-bike-Honda F4i (Unless that's too much) for another year or so.
3rd-Probably something like a Suzuki GSX-R 750 (I don't want to move too far ahead)for about 10 months or until I get the money for a second bike
4th-BMW R1150 GS Adventure (Why not? It's something different and looks really fun and cool), which I'll ride frequently, but probably for a couple years or so, until I'm ready for a new sportbike.

Other bikes I'm interested in getting when I'm probably done with the process.
-Triumph Daytona 955i
-Aprilia RSV Mille R
-And if I want it badly enough, a Ducati 998.
And thinking WAY ahead,
Suzuki B-King *Sniffles* It's beautiful.

Also, about the money, my mom said that she would buy my first ride and she already gave me her old car, and I plan on getting a good job also. I'll probably take a little longer than a year between each bike; though, before I get a new one. My dad will help with stuff also. Man, that 250R from Kawasaki is CHEAP; though. It's perfect!

Thanx:)

congrats my fellow AF'er

Splendid choice! ;)

Also, remember to try and buy things during the Fall sell-out. Dealers will be dying to get rid of the "old" models to bring in the new over the winter.

The F4i will make a GREAT second bike. You'll have plenty of riding experience on the 250 Ninja to handle it.

Not to mention your insurance will be MUCH cheaper on a 250 since you'll have the MSF discount, and it's a great bike for learning b/c of its size. By the time you're ready for the F4i you'll have riding experience, so you'll be at less risk, and your insurance still won't be bad.

Like I always say to myself whenever I dream of a bigger bike: If you do this right, you'll be doing this a LONG time. There's ALWAYS time to progress to a bigger bike.

Thanx!!:D Yeah. I thought about insurance alot, too. I also know to get proper gear. Well, thanx for the support guys.

Starting small is a good idea. I started out with a Hurricane and now wished I would have started smaller. I had some bad habits for a while.

As far as getting a bigger bike as you get older, I did but kinda wished I had a smaller one. Mine can really get up and go but doesn't handle like the smaller bikes. I do some drag racing where my bike is fine but have switched to my twistie riding and my ride is to much of a pig to do tight turns. Although its perfect on those 500-600 days where my R1 and Duc buddies are crying in pain. :D

I have to disagree with some of you folks here.I started out on a 600 Yamaha Radian,alot of people told me it was too much bike to learn on.Just remember that the throttle works in both directions.Take it easy,learn how the bike feels,take a year to get to know the bike.I think if you start off with a 500 ninja you'll be tired of it before a year is up.But hey,i'm not trying to convince you of anything,you are the only person that knows if you can handle a sport bike responsibly.Just remember that it's a good thing to be afraid of your first bike.Gives you respect for the machine and keeps you safe.

Fearing your BIKE is bad. Fearing others and what others can do to you is good. You need to TRUST your bike so that you feel comfortable on it and feel secure in making any necessary decisions in an emergency. If you're scared shitless of your bike, you'll panic, and there goes your genes from the gene pool. Sure, some CAN start on a 600 successfully. MOST can't. There's a reason.

I didn't mean scared as in nervous,i meant scared as in not wanting to end up on your head.I think it all comes down to common sense.Take it easy and you should be fine.

Fearing your bike in anyway is bad, but just as bad is overconfidence. If you're thinking "I'm not sure I can make that corner" you'll probably wind up on the curb, and If you're thinking "I can take that exit ramp at 110" your probably gonna miss the curb, and wake up in hospital 2 months later. IF you have luck on your side. Anyway 250 and 500 Ninjas are very good bigginer bikes. (I'm getting my girl a 500R this summer.) RSX-If your planning on having the bike for a year or two I'd have to say try and get the 500R or an SV-650. Having your friends wait on you is OK for a couple months but you and them will probably get impaitent. Not the best thing when you're on a bike. Oh, and speaking from expirience, a six-four is too much to safely start on. I bought a new R-6 and almost looped the bike in the first week of riding. R-1 is right get all of the gear, and wear it. It maybe hot under your leathers but you'll wish you had been hot when the docs are scrubbing the dirt out of your road rash. Well thats my 2 cents anyway.

RSX-If your planning on having the bike for a year or two I'd have to say try and get the 500R or an SV-650.

Hey, I'm hearing you on that one. I may just start out on a 500R or something around that power level, as I really feel I am capable of it. Thanks for bringing it up. Just goes to show that everyone's opinion counts, or maybe it's just because I'm so easily persuaded :D

buell blast = ok but not to fast $4,000 harely riders say there too small tho

Buells are in the harley dealer ships. the most expensive buell is only like 14grand all buells are good but the only problem is that there all torq kings and will do willes like notin so if you get one be safe /there more comfortable than others . the main thing to do I test ride.

I don't really know about Buell Blast, but I have seen Ninja 500's for 2.5-3k that were in decent shape. Some scratches from being dropped and such. Although, I didn't see them in person. Unfortunately high bike prices are a side effect of living in Colorado. The cheap ones are all on the east coast area, or that's the way it seems.

You can pick up a Ninja 500 around here for a little less than that. :D God bless the East Coast. :p I picked up a 1991 GS500 last summer for $1300 and less than 5k miles. They're around. Had a few scrapes, but hey... first bikes get dropped. Buying used is the best thing you could do until you're really really sure about what you're doing. Even then it's still almost not worth it.

LOL, think you could mail me one?:wink: I've been looking in state for a while now, and all that I can find are either new, or destroyed. The cheapest 500r I've seen in Colorado was $4000. That one was a new 2002, I think it is still for sale.

Shipping there should only be about $400 from a fair variety of places. I have found so many EX500s for right around the $2000 to $2500 range, and many even at only $1500. Go to the following forums and check the classifieds: sportbikeworld.com, cycleforums.com, sportbikes.net, onedownfiveup.com, and cycletrader.com

Yah, I know about where to look, but I thought shipping was more than that. Well, it was for more for a car anyway. I'm leary about buying a bike with *superfical* (or however that's spelled) damage, without seeing it, rideing it, ect. It's in my nature to be distrustful of those I don't know. Not to offend them, but it's really easy to get ripped off these days. Sometimes it seems like all the good people have been killed off by all the bad ones. :biggrin: (Except me.) :biggrin:

PM me if you find any bikes in SWPA that you want more info on. I'd be glad to get it for you.

Likewise i can check out any AZ bikes anybody is thinking of buying.
