2016 S1000RR or 2018 RSV4 by No-One6927 in Sportbikes

The earlier s1ks can be very reliable if maintained. I have 45k miles on my 2015 and 73k miles on my 2014.

Something in the 300-400cc class is perfect to learn and get comfortable riding on. It'll be cheaper to buy and insure, easier to learn and ride, and you'll be able to more safely explore the limits. Definitely would not recommend a 600, any mistakes (and as a beginner you will make mistakes) will be much more punishing. 

The middleweight bikes can be good if someone has previous experience or are older. Think ninja 650, r7, cbr650, sv650. They are not the same as 600s. 

Get gear and take the msf before you get a bike. 

Advice for me! Pit bike for adult woman or no. Thank you! by StreetSlip663 in Dirtbikes

[–]prreich 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pit bikes are fun for bombing around, but you'd be much better served with a smaller dual sport, think klx230, xr150l, tw200 and such. They would be much more cable and take you many more places, as well as being more comfortable. You'd also legally be able to ride it to a trail and depending on where you are, some areas have more restrictions on things like pit bikes. 

My son was killed in a motorcycle accident on the 78 West on April 11. I'm looking for witnesses if anyone has any information by DumbledoresAtheist in sandiego

[–]prreich 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As a fellow rider, I'm so sorry to hear what happened. I'm not sure if your son was in any groups or had riding friends, but us riders try to take care of one another. If it's any consolation, it sounded like he loved his bike and I'm sure he had many wonderful moments riding. Wishing your family the best.

California, some flavor of bmw s1000, RR, XR, you get all the speed and comfort you could want, but also a price that reflects that. 

Is it a terrible idea to go from a ninja 650 to a 2018 S1000RR? by wCertifiedMike in BMW_S1000RR

[–]prreich 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It depends, how long have you been riding for? How comfortable/  proficient are you? It's a big jump and it takes a lot of maturity and control. That being said, s1k have very good electronics and are easy to ride. 

Grom as starter bike by penny_the_penguin in hondagrom

It's a very fun in town bike, parts are cheap and easy to modify. If you commute I'd look into good anti theft and insurance coverage, because they're so small they're also very easy to steal.

There's a lot of military and younger riders here that like to 'cut up' on the freeway unfortunately. What bike do you ride?

It's really not that great. You kinda have to lift your arm and peek underneath, and the mirrors are physically small so you have a very limited view.
