Gday all
I'm a new rider at the ripe age of 40.
When i was 14 i ripped around the paddock chasing cows with my country cousins, i could hardly hold up a 250cc bike then.
Just got my ticket at 40 and bought a V-star 250.
Here we have power to weight restrictions on new riders and you can go up to 650 if the weight is right, but i found the 250 forgiving enough for a new rider, a compromise between handling and comfort and enough pickup without leaving rubber on the road....
