You know, if you weren't so busy trying to find fault in everything I say, this would be a lot easier. I mean maybe my point wasn't perfectly clear but it was there if you kinda thought about it....


Man, I'm not finding fault. But, kid racers / go cart drivers / skateboarders / athletes that are in it to be IN IT are different than an adult trying to acquire a skill set. Seriously not even in the same ballpark.

Glad you see your point wasn't clear

I never said someone should start on the same bike. Each case is different. But, I know this from my experience - starting on a bike that has a smaller/easier/forgiving power band will give you the opportunity to learn the skills that are needed to be an accomplished rider.

It's my favorite to watch people try to buy fast.

At the end of the day, it's your money... and your hand on the throttle.
