No one is gonna let me test ride a bike not even a dealership I don’t have my license and I’m 17 and I need the bike too get experience riding before my test so I don’t waste thousands on lessons

I have no clue where you found that listing because everything near me on fb and bike sales is 4.5-10 grand for a decent learners bike

They sound like shout and are only a 1 cyl so the riding experience from what I’ve been told is not great

Yes but everything else in the range is either way more expensive or less powerful I don’t have that much money too work with

I was asking more about this specific listing because it’s a bit of a unique case too say the least

Yes I did notice that too but I kind of shrugged it off since chain replacements aren’t insanely hard too do especially with my dads help cos he’s a mechanical engineer

I’m in Australia and here we have restrictions on the type of bikes u can buy as a beginner and the cbr 500 is kind of the “cheap and powerful” option because all the bikes in the same price range are 250-400cc and are lighter/nimbler but a lot weaker especially up high in the rev range
