So, I was at the bike shop and a GSXR 1300 really caught my eye. It fit around me like a glove. I have driven other bikes, including doing some serious dirt biking, just no crotch rockets. However, the lady at the shop insisted that I look at something with 1000cc's, or less; hesitantly at 1000cc's. She said that if I didn't have much experience, with these kinds of bikes, that I should start with something smaller. I only want to buy one crazy cool bike though; not buy an extra one to get me there.
Then also, I have hear this before. What would make these bikes dangerous for someone that has never ridden a crotch rocket before? I figured if I jumped on it like an idiot and hammered down, then yes, I probably deserve to crash. What if I took it easy, at first, until I got used to it though? Is it something that is hard to hold onto? What are the things that I would not understand that would affect my own safety?
