lookin for a first bike...

its getting cold and i just got my license after taking a safety course. I founda cheap bike for jsut finisihing out the season its a '77 suzuki 750GS and its about 600$ engine starts and runs great. new tires and in pretty decent shape... do you guys have any experiance with suzuki?

No sir, but it sounds like a good starter bike. If I didnt like screwing around so much, I would for sure get an old bike for the first one and drive it for a summer to get used to it. Second summer comes along and so does the CBR600 :). What kinda bike are you looking for?

I never buy a bike or motocycle that has over 30k miles.

Excellent starter bikes are the 250 class. Not too muh power but still out accel. a car =) When you buy a bike , do a quick tune up and definenelty check the tires and if needing to be replaced , don't put it off.

People say alot about older bikes with tons and tons of miles for a bike but if you maintain it , it will last as long as a car so..take it for what its worth.

Also , if you have never riden before , I would recomend you take a riding class. It's only like 100 - 150 dollars but prevent stupi dmistakes down the road caused by lack of experience and knowledge .


Ride safe man.

i took a riding class. thats how i got my license :) it was 270$ and we rode 96 suzuki 250's i got a flawless track/hazard course grade and 98 on knowledge test. i was the best rider in the class according to the instructor...

eh i bought it...

So lets see some pics!!!

So do you take it off any sweet jumps??

LMAO!

Haha nice Napolean Dynamite quote. Just watched that blades of glory. Had to be the gayest movie I've seen, but I laughed all through it.

Anyway, Im drunk, but it sounds like a good starter bike. Get some pics up. I know this chick thats got a pretty fast suzuki, and my buddy has a slower suzuki. I don't know a whole hell of alot about bikes, but neither of them have had any mechanical problems if that helps.

Ahh , mine was only 180 , I go re-up every 5 years just for the hell of it. Utah is harsh about their riding laws as well so I had no choice lawl. But just be careful and take it easy , move up 200 - 300cc a season. seen a lot of firends who thought they were seasoned riders take some pretty nasty dumps just because a lack of knowledge on the common sense shit :/

I totally LOL'd that. :rofl:

I have a 2000 GSXR600 and my dad has a 1980 Suzuki GN400 we haven't had any problems with them, just general maint.

The first bike I ever rode was an 07 zx6-r. I would never go smaller than a 600 personally. I'll probably end up with a 750+cc for my first bike. As long as you aren't an idiot while you ride you will be fine.

i sold it for 900... now lookin for a ninja 600 or 500r

zx6r is a great bike. Are you looking for a cruiser or a rocket?

im giogn to go look at a ninja with 13K miles for a grand...
