Perhaps you should consider finishing the third grade first.

Nope. Just twist and go!

Happy travels!

If you were learning to fly airplanes you would not start on a Lear jet. No, you'd probably kill yourself on the first outing, or at least damage the jet such that you couldn't take another flight. Thankfully, it's probably illegal as well, and for good reason.

While for bikes there is no similar rule, you should heed the warning on so many forums. There are good reasons for this. Your GSXR 750, even an older model, is not built for a beginner. It is designed for a very advanced experienced rider, riding on a track. Acceleration and stopping power are immense. This, for a beginner, will get you into a lot of trouble. Trouble, like you'll end up in hospital or dead. This is not a beginner bike.

But you know this already, because you've been on forums and others have told you. Still, it's your bike and your life. I don't think you will be able to ride this bike for a month and not crash it. Then you'll have lots of expensive plastic to replace, and probably road rash or broken bones to heal.

Check out your insurance for this bike as well. There's a reason insurance rates are so high. It's because so many riders crash their super sport bikes.

Sell this bike. Buy something easier to learn on, and learn to ride well. The objective here is to learn to ride a motorcycle and live long enough to be able to competently ride whatever you want. If you like sportbikes try the new Ninja 250R or the Ninja 500R. These Ninja are nothing like your GSXR 750R, though you may think the numbers are close. No, they are in completely separate bike brackets.

It's your life. I don't know you, but as one biker to another I've given you the straight goods.

Hey man, your keyboard is missing some keys.


The same advice for the 600cc is the same for a 750cc sportbike.

Okay. Did you take the MSF BAsic Riders Course? If you have, then MAYBE you'll be able to survive starting out on that GSXR. If you have NOT taken the BRC, then I strongly recommend that you DO take it.

Is the bike new?

In the meantime, please, please, please make sure you've got good protective gear that fits you and that you wear every time you ride. Head to feet, including boots and full fingered gloves. Textile is fine so long as it has armor and fits you.

The main issue with that rocket is the knife-edge throttle response that is NOT newbie friendly. Incorrect hand position and a surprise while you're riding could very well accelerate that bike right out from under you.

Ideally, sell it and find something a bit tamer. But I know thats a hard thing to recommend.
