​What Is A Great Sport Bike For Beginners?

This is a question we hear quite often. As a beginning sport bike rider you want to buy a sport bike that isn't too big for you to comfortably handle. You also don't want a sport bike that has lots of power like some of the larger sport bikes available.

So what is a great sport bike for beginners? We generally recommend that a beginning sport bike rider choose a sport bike in the 250cc to 600cc range. In this category of sport bikes you have many bikes to choose from. Each of the major sport bike manufacturers offers sport bikes in this size range for you to choose from. We also recommend that a beginning rider choose a used sport bike to get their practice on before deciding to buy a new motorcycle. Once you've ridden for a while and become comfortable riding a sport bike, you can then choose to buy a new sport bike that may be n the same size range or you can move up in size of sport bike to something with a little more power.

There are several good reasons to choose a smaller sport bike as a beginner along with good reasons to buy a used sport bike when you're starting out.

First, a sport bike is generally a powerful and responsive machine that is designed basically for racing. These are nimble motorcycles and are truly designed for the rider who loves the feeling of power and moving along at a high rate of speed. Take a look and ask yourself when the last time was that you saw a cruiser on the motorcycle race track.

Why buy used? Until you get used to riding a sport bike, let's face it, your chances of dumping the bike are greater as a beginner than they are once you have experience riding a sport bike. So, if that were to happen, and we hope it doesn't, we think that most people would prefer for it to happen with a less expensive used motorcycle than with their new motorcycle. It is not our intent to try to scare anyone from riding a sport bike, but, we tend to prefer to err on the side of caution rather than to not address a potential situation.

What else should a beginning sport bike rider look for? We think that you should sit on each motorcycle you are interested in. Each manufacturer offers differences in their design and you want to be sure that you're comfortable on the bike before you buy it. You should also talk with others that ride sport bikes to get their varying opinions of what is a great sport bike for beginners.
