I want to buy a bike about 2500euros,it must be 400-600ccm.At me (Serbia),there is too many superbikes that you can find.Just a cbr's,gsxr's... and guess what-price about 2500eu.I was reading how the high HP bikes can be dangerous...When I think a little,I think that I can't ride these bikes.Really my skills are not good enough for that kind of bikes.
I saw 1 yamaha fzr 600s-this is not a supersport but it has 95hp.Is this too much for starter?But I think that this bike is not aggressive on torque like a supersport bikes.Is this true???
Have a advice for me?


sorry for english and thanks

I just picked up a Suzuki Bandit 400 here in Hungary. It's great.
There are also lot's of 250 Bandits, Honda CB 400 and Suzuki GS 500 around here.
Look for something like that maybe.

Mine's a '98 with 17,000km, it was Eur3,000. Eur2200 for a '95 is pretty similar to the cost here (a bit cheaper actually), depending on the condition of course.

What you are thinking is correct. A smaller cc sport bike (250) or a standard would be safer for you and have less to repair when your ready to sell it for a larger bike/engine later. It also cost less to buy, insure and much better on the gas mileage.
