First bike recommendations {{forumTopicSubject}}
Hey everyone,
My name is Renatto and this month I pass Category A license I have been interested in motorcycles for a while now and enjoyed even more during lectures at school.
The biggest dilemma for me is choosing motorcykle after getting license, there is so many and their prices vary so much. Mostly I am into street bikes like Honda CB, Suzuki Bandit, GSXR or newer Yamaha MT-07.
I have driven Yamaha FZ6N, Kawasaki Vulcan, Honda CB500 and by far Honda was the best one in my opinion. I am also pretty tall 191cm and found with other bikes to feel strain in back and butt
I would love to know your recommendations, because Im scrolling through DBA every day and looking for all bikes from 30 up to 80k.
Best Regards :))

I have the approx. same height as you and in that regard also tend to feel cramped on sportbikes. So for a more upright seating positition, look for naked bikes (eg. MT-07) and similar. Bear in mind that the producers tend to have quite different sizes, ergonomically speaking. New Kawasakis are pretty small for tall riders, in my opinion.
Adventure bikes, or ADV-lookalikes, often are better suited for tall riders. BMW G 310 GS, second hand Suzuki Vstroms makes a more comfortable seating position, but definately far from the sporty design of sportsbikes.
123mc.dk is a better place to look for motorbikes. It has nice search functionality and overviews from the various shops in DK.
Have fun hunting your new bike! It is a fun and time consuming hobby:-)

I checked fc-moto.de, they seemed to have quiet a big selection.

Also remember that now you have to pay danish moms/VAT on online purchases on non-danish websites. So the savings might be smaller than expected.
