      Well hello there Particle In The Wave 👋, Although I'm turning 61 in a few months I am a "Newbie" rider after spending a lifetime wanting a motorcycle. I raised 3 Sons as a single Father so money 💰 for a bike and gear was certainly out of the question, now that my boys are men and now self sufficient I was able to buy myself a sweet little 2006 Kawasaki Vulcan 500 😁👍and by summers end I'm hoping to have decent gear although I do have a nice new Modular helmet I haven't yet acquired proper boots or gloves. Ride safe and keep the dirty side down , best regards.

      Why do the smart engineers at the manufacturers design the brake lever for four fingers when apparently two fingers is the right way to brake? That's because two fingers is NOT the right way to brake. It's a fine technique but in an emergency brake, you have greater fine motor control over four fingers which you can brake progressively with more finesse than two fingers. Practice your ebraking often.

    It’s funny how different they teach over there compared to here in north Europe. When you stop at lights you put the opposite foot down, a jacket should not have a back protector included because they think it’s safer to have a standalone protector here because it will stay in place. Then there’s the 4 finger braking.. here ABS is mandatory on new bikes since -09. So we’re encouraged to use 4 fingers.
    Totally agree about the boots tho.

    I'm looking into getting a bike to get me to work. Any recommendations for a multicompartment bike and or one that can handle off and on road long distance travels ( the last part being the most important). Also, could you recommend gear that can go over my office wear?

    Thoughts on starting on a 08 gsxr 600? I’ve been riding dirt bikes for about 14 years and currently ride a rmz 450.

      It really depends on what kind of person you are. This is one of the most frequent asked questions and to be honest an annoying one too, because everyone as different opinions. I'd say you'd be fine. Just keep in mind that the power of 4 cylinder engines are in the high rev ranges so as a beginner the power can be overwhelming. Just build up slowly cuz dirt bikes are completely different . Also do not let the reputation fool you. They are amazing machines! This may sound strange but I'd skip the 600 and go for the 750. More power low end which is basically more useable power in the streets. On the 600 you gotta squeeze it a bit more.

      If you keep an eye on the speedo you should be fine. I drove one once and low in the rev range it's really smoth to ride but after about 9000 rpm the bike doesn't want to stop. I gave it a little in a 50 zone and on the top end of the 3rd gear i read 110 on the speedo. And all that in Switzerland, where they would've taken away the bike, my license and I'd have to hope that the ticket wouldn't get above CHF15'000. (yeah, the law sucks here)

    I'd responsibly planned to go 250cc dual sport for my first bike and bought gear accordingly, but the motorcycle gods are tricky bastards and I've now been gifted an old scrambler-style Yamaha XS650 by my aging uncle. Maybe it's not the bike that I wanted to start on, and very likely it's not the bike that I SHOULD start on, but hey.... it's a free bike! Gotta buy a pair of street boots now and I'll try not to kill myself on the thing. Wish me luck.
