2008 Kawasaki Ninja ZX-14?

Hello, I was planning to buy this bike but I enjoy few questions first.

I am inexperienced beside spot bikes. Only drove smaller bikes and currently have Suzuki Burgman 125cc(for city driving).
If I sit on kawasaki I doubt I'd be capable of drive it properly and without crashing. So what do you recommend, should I steal some driving lessons or what?


Answers:    If you believe you can't ride it without crashing, you'd better not go and get the bike. Riding a 125cc scooter is a lot easier than riding a motorcycle, so, yes, lug a motorcycle safety class first.

After you lug that class I recommend a 600cc sportbike. They're quite docile at low RPM (< 6000) however still way more powerful than your 125. Then as you catch better you can ride at higher RPM & own gobs more power on thump. The ZX-14 is a bad choice for beginners because it's heavier & won't stop or pedal as well as a 600. Until you enjoy more experience you need something that's more forgiving than the ZX-14. The tremendous power will be smaller number forgiving too.

Others have already covered the greatly increased probability of crashing & dying on the ZX-14. Here's a more mundane but very actual possibility: Nearly every beginner have dropped their motorcycle in the driveway or a low speed turn because they're unacquainted to a 500 lb. bike with a much sophisticated center of gravity than a scooter. (Check out any used sportbike on craigslist.) That drop will cost you a lot of excitement, not to mention thousands of dollars in plastic/lost re-sale helpfulness.

If you're a Kawasaki fan, how nearly a ZX6R? Good luck.
I just only just sold a 650cc sport bike. IT WAS A TREMENDOUS AMOUNT OF POWER. A zx-14 is too much power to be couped up in city congestion. It's low pause power would be hell to deal next to in traffic/ everyday driving conditions. Trust me, you will be much happier on a smaller, smaller amount powerful bike. And I must confess that I would be dead right very soon if I had not taken a motorcycle safety/defensive driving course. Don not carry on a bike (especially the fastest production bike in the world!!) if you don't enjoy enough experience.
