Hello from Ohio

[dizzko]

Heya Guys and Gals,

I'm brand new to biking. Never ridden. I've been doing lots of reading (and lurking) through various forums and biking magazines lately. I've liked a lot of the information that I've read here. You all seem to be a very knowledgeable crowd and provide great advice and support to beginners.

Anyhow, I've been thinking, a lot, about getting a bike lately. I have a good deal of time, though, as I probably won't be making a purchase until spring of next year rolls around (I just don't have the cash currently). I fully intend to take the Beginner MSF course around here as well as acquire a SNELL certified helmet before getting my bike.

So, I'm wondering which bike to go with. I'm young, will be 21 by the time I purchase a bike, and would like to ride something sporty. I've read a lot of statements (including one in TWO Magazine) stating that the Kawasaki Ninja 250R is a great bike to start on. I just want to get some of your opinions as well. Also, I'm not sure I'm completely sold on the whole fairing idea. For instance, I think that bikes like the Buell Streetfighter and Triumph Street Triple look way cooler than the Kawasaki Ninjas and Suzuki Hayabusas. Any ideas there?

Thanks for your thoughts - dizzy
