I'm 16 and wanting to get a first vehicle and I've always wanted a sport bike. Everyone is saying not to get one because they are DANGEROUS. I want it as my first vehicle because it's cheaper than a car ad I've always wanted one. My youth minister has had 3 bikes (his latest is a Ducati 600). He said he's had to lay all 3 down and now he drives a Prius. Luckly he never got hurt. I told him I wanted one but he said he doesn't want me to because they are too dangerous. I won't go fast, drive on the highway, or anything illegal. I was just wondering if it's smart to get one as a first vehicle or just get a car.
