I disagree, SS isn't a beginer bike, but how do you learn to ride a sport bike riding anything else!

and what I was saying is you learn the fundimentals on something smaller then move up to the SS bike... you learn on the SS what is diffrent from the smaller bike...

It's like jumping in a Corvette as your first car, and driving 180 the first time on the highway. Before you're familiar with road conditions, how to turn and stop safely, etc. It's ridiculous.
What's worse are the people/dealers who will sell these hefty bikes to obvious beginners. I heard of one where the kid bought a 'busa and had to ask, "how do you start this thing?" A couple of weeks later he and his girlfriend were in the hospital after a crash (squids, too. Go figure).
Point being: I agree. And thank you.

Like I put in the first post... these aren't my words... I just thought it was a very well put explination to start small...
glad you agree... now get yourself a bike and ENJOY!
