Welcome, Daytona
lotsa factors to consider before deciding which is the "best" newbie bike: any prior experience, your size, what you wanna do on the bike, how much $$$ you wanna spend, how concerned you are w/ posing, etc, etc...
you've come to the right place-- these guys have a wealth of experience, and will definitely deal you the straight scoop w/out hammering ya (too badly
) for asking questions.
