I know my enthusiastic title is why you are reading this! (even yahoo is telling me my title has too much punctuation lol)
I am a couple months shy of being 19 years old and am a skinny, tall guy (5'10" and ~130lbs). I've been doing some research lately and am sort of stuck. I definitely want a sporty bike, not a cruiser, so I was thinking Ninja 250r but I see a LOT of people around the internet saying you WILL regret getting a 250cc quickly and they recommend a 500cc. But I was wondering if that would still be true factoring in my personal body type?
I intend to complete a MSF course. I do have like ~3 hours of bike experience from 2 days with my uncle when I was 15 before I had even learned to drive a car. It feels like it was just basic exposure, though I did understand the clutch and how to release it, so I don't really know what I should go for?
Thanks in advance!
PS. my parents are very protective, any tips/facts on how to/to convince them to let me get a bike lol
