Common Motorcycle Myths & Misconceptions #4

Myth: Do not think twice. Your dream bike should be your first bike

Sure, biking has a lot to do with living your dream, but DO think twice before buying your first bike. A 1000cc superbike could be your idea of a dream bike, but it will certainly be a very bad decision for a rookie to buy a superbike. You get the point. Start from the basics. A recommended bike for a beginner in the West is usually a 250cc or a even a 500cc bike. Most of these bikes generate around 35 bhp. Once you are comfortable on a small displacement bike only then should you set your sights higher.
