One last tip is to wrap your bike as best you can when practicing the maneuvers. If your learning on anything bigger than a 250cc, you're probably going to dump it a few times on the slow speed stuff.

I don't have a bike yet, but i have been looking around for some good starter bikes. I have a pretty hectic schedule as a farmer and would have to time my courses and testing accordingly. Most guys I've talked to suggest something like a 250 cc to start, and i'm sure that would be the smartest move,but i have to be honest.. my goal is to own a new harley iron 883. I sat on one of those boys at the philly auto show last week and i fell in love. I'm 23 years old, 5'10'', and 160 lbs. that bike felt about right sizewise.
