I only do medium rare.

Sorry to hear aswell, Zac!

No worries mate.... Will see what I can do... Thanks

[Morgan]

Actually... yes.. 

 

 

Wait... Whut?

 

This serious?

[Liberty]

Yup... been at steak for a while... think it is over done now...

 

Wow man, I didn't know it got this serious... I'm really sorry to hear it. No matter what you go through we've always got your back man. And you've always got us.

I am already insanely keen for a bike... I want a Megelli

I wouldn't bother spending big bucks on your first bike. Get a cheapo just in case you drop it.

Save money for big bike.

[Zac]

Haha... no worries guy... GT is not for serious discussions...

 

 

Every person who works with a computer needs this..

Exactly what I'll be doing shortly as well. I'm not that into bikes that I will spend heaps of money on anyway. I'll be happy with a GSXR.

But can get a Megelli for like $3000....too much?

 

What would you recommend? Most of the cheap ones are 125cc...

[Liberty]

I wouldn't go anything under 250cc.

[Zac]

I wouldn't go anything under 250cc.

Yeah... thats my thinking... so either a Megelli or a Ninja...

[Liberty]

Ninja's are alright. What about a Suzuki GSXR 600?

 

[ams]

A few year old GS500 (500cc twin) like mine you can get for 3-4k easy.

250cc bikes are shit, just avoid them.

So even on LAMS, avoid the 250s?

 

Go for the 500? You can get that hyosung 650 on LAMS too right?

Hyosung's are actually not bad. I decided on suzuki purely because of the name (and reputation) as the Hyo's are relatively new to the market but still korean built (hyosung) is better than chinese built (megelli)

[Zac]

Hmmmm 2005 GSR for $3000... but no rego...

 

Nice 2008 GS500F for $5000...

 

 

AMSy... would a digital speedo be a good thing?

[Adam]

Lol

The frames are made of cheese.
The brakes are made of wishes and pixie dust.
The suspension is largely comprised of hair clips and spirit gum.
The engine requires new hamsters every few thousand clicks.

They're total pieces of atrocious shit. Don't do it.

Buy something Japanese (or even Korean) for another thousand bucks and actually have something worth riding.

Thanks dude... Megelli is out... didn't know it was chinese either...

 

Will go for the license and stuff first, then start looking at bikes and hopefully by then, will have enough saved for something decent...

Who cares? It's your first bike. Digital = more cost.

It's an unnecessary luxury for a first bike.

Exactly.

Lol! Would be awesome seeing a bike exactly like that... I just thought the Megelli looked awesome... much sport... so wow...

I've been on one. They go alright man.

You don't need a bike to GET your license.

Get the license then just test ride a brand new one of everything LAMS approved. Ninja 250 or 300, GS500, Hyosung, CB250.

Just see what feels right. Think about the seating position, how it feels on the road, how the weight of the bike feels when you turn....it's all very different for each bike and you won't know you like it till you've ridden it.

Bikes are very different to cars, they are very personal.
