Hi, I'm new to riding and I'm looking for my first motorcycle.
First off, I'm taking the MSF course in June. I have a jacket, boots, helmet. I have friends that will help me. I hope to become an active member of this club and make new friends.
What I'm looking for:
an airhead - wanting to ride and own one of these is a big part of why I want to ride. I've been advised to look for anything else, but that seems to miss my point
R65 - seems the perfect size to learn on
R50, R60, R75, R80 - these also seem like good learner bikes
Under $2,000 - preferably much less
What I'm NOT looking for:
R100, R90 - These seem too big/bigger than I need
S, RS, GS - These seem very rare and valuable; would be wasted on me
RT - or anything with a ton of body work I could damage or have to repair, also too valuable
Anything mint - I'm not a collector and I can't afford to become one
Basically a small standard for little money even with high milage or in need of repair would be perfect. I'm good with a wrench and I'm confident that as long as everything's there, I can make it safe to ride.
So, does anyone have something "laying around"? Does this bike exist, or am I never going to find it?
Thanks,
-- Aubrey
