1. There is a motorcycle specific sub-forum here.

2. 300HP is a LOT for a bike, let alone for a first bike. You're an idiot if you are even remotely considering that thing. Not to mention it can't do anything but go straight.

3. What Rich said is kind of true, about people "getting used to" their bikes and wanting to upgrade, the problem is they RARELY can use the bike to its full potential and just want something faster so they feel faster when they'd be better off spending their money on a track day and actually learn a thing or two about riding a motorcycle.

If your serious, start small. Hell, the first thing you should buy is some proper riding gear. Get a good helmet, jacket, gloves, boots, and pants. Then look for a bike. Nothing wrong with starting small with a Ninja 250 or something. Hell, I'd venture to guess most guys out there on their 600's and 1000's couldn't even use a Ninja 250 for everything it has to offer. I've seen good riders pass bigger bikes on 250's. Then once you've learned some skills you can always turn around and sell it quickly when you're ready to move on to something bigger.

I'd still be riding my 250 if I hadn't seen the '09 color scheme for the R6.
