    Good evening gentlemen.

    how are you gentlemen?

    my name is morgan and im new to the bike scene, having said so i actually haven't even got my bike license yet.. but ive got to start somewhere.
    I guess ive grown up with all my uncles and cousins having bikes so when some guys i know started getting them it sort of triggered my interest.

    Im on my way over to the shopping forum to have a look around for my first bike, but i might need some sound advice if anyone is willing to help me out lol.
    from what ive heard body size has a bit to do with what you should ride, for example im 98kg and 5'10" one guy i know recommend a 250 hyosung because of its larger frame but others ive spoken to say thats full of shit.. so i guess i need to read up on it some more..

    but anyway i hope to cruise around the forum, picking up tips and whatnot.
    hopefully i'll see you guys on the road.

    -Morgan

    Welcome.

    It's not a 100 per cent sausage fest, we have chicks too.

    Just ask mate, as long as the questions aren't entirely stupid, you won't see a new member and rider being steered wrong when it comes to bike and gear choice.

    Gentlemen? Don't see too many of them around here..

    Welcome, morgan. First bike's only for a year so don't get too hung up on it - try a few and grab the one that you like.

    Welcome aboard and remember whatever bike you settle on you will more than likely sell in 12mths time so dont get too hung up on it.

    Welcome!
    Try as many bikes as you can before you buy. What is good for someone else may not be right for you.
    Have fun making the purchase
