Whats a good beginner bike for me?
Answers:
You have some more questions to ask yourself.Do you want to lean back and cruise. Are you looking for eye popping speed?Do you like steep turns that you lean into . Are you a straight road cruiser?
You are a bigger guy. Don't buy anything under a 550. THey make alot of fast cruisers that handle pretty well. Are you buying new or slightly used or very used. If you are looking for affordability look Japanese.
how about a three wheeled trike.with stabalisers
I was going to suggest a CBR125R but you would probably find it a little small a Honda Varadero 125 although its only a 125 it looks a bigger bike for its size and would suit you better
Sporty and a cruiser. unlikely. cruisers are for long straight roads and comfort, sports . well for sport, low and designed for corners and short bursts of speed. If you are looking at 125cc then I suggest you just get something for the duration until you take the main bike test. But, being tall, perhaps an on-road/off-road type such as a trials. it has the height. but not the necessary comfort of a cruiser. Once you have passed your test look at something from BMW/Harley/Honda if you want cruisers. (I'm a biker but I have the opposite problem.. I'm small!)
Kawasaki 125 nice bike, but can't beat a Harley Davidson.
I asked the same question recently and a dealer said a bigger bike was more stable than a smaller one which seems to make sense. I know it is more revenue for the dealer buying a bigger bike but I would tend to agree with him.
Another idea is to look at the www.whatbike.co.uk website as they are experts and have reviews - good luck!

anyone you like under 600cc
Try throwing a leg over a Yamaha V-max. Its a dirty girl!
And by the numbers from the US and quite big. I'd recommend a bike along the lines of a Honda VTX1300. Have also just heard theres a new VT750 out if the 13 is too big.
Get a test ride and make sure you feel comfortable first.
Good luck
if you are looking for a 125 i would say a Kawasaki trials bike but if youve just done your das course then i would suggest something like a Suzuki bandit 600 its not a cruiser or a sporty machine its a middle machine and easy to ride which is ideal if you drop it a few times as you don't want to be dropping a Harley or a nice gold-wing. sorry about the spelling lol.
