There a great deal to be learned on any bike, and the thrill for most of us comes from improving our riding technique and skill set. Upgrading the rider is often a much better move than upgrading to a bike that you can't possibly wring out.
I think that's just plain bad advice. |
totally agreed.
i have an 800 cruiser and it was my first bike.
my next bike will have a
smaller displacement.
later on i might try to do some track... i'd get a 250 for myself for that...
