Im a new rider...never rode a bike before where should i start older 250 or a brand new 300i have heard various opinions i dont even know if iwill like riding i jis want one any advice?
+1.I can't really think of any one thing in particular because I kinda compressed everything I learned in BRC into one thing. Some advice I received after the first part of my first ride: "Relax and enjoy it." Obviously, pay attention to what you're doing and pay attention to your surroundings, but don't get out there wound up super tight, worried about every little thing. You're actually more likely to make a mistake if you're tensed up and freaked out. Go easy on yourself and with your bike.
That's just me. I'm sure the experienced riders on here probably have better advice or at least more what you're looking for.
I am 5'4" my self and the 300 is a little tall for me to flat foot it but if you have a good set of boots you should be fine. The only time I have a problem is if the parking space is not flat but I just stand next to it (kick stand side) and walk it back.Iv been wanting a 250 but eveeyone says i will out grow it fast im a small guy (5'4")so i dont want a big bike (tall) and the 250 was the right size now the 300 has the same sizebut more power and upgrades would the 300 b a good bike for me
