I've been thinking about it for a while and have decided that I want to get a motorcycle. Last night I rode one for the first time in about 7 years and it was a lot of fun, so much fun in fact I couldn't wipe the grin off my face for a while afterward. The bike I rode was a 2000 Triumph Sprint RS (955cc), I felt it was a bit too fast.....(got it up to 85 and couldn't tell....with shorts on!

). So I'm browsing today and I like the look of the sport bikes that don't have the full bodywork such as the Suzuki Bandit. I want to get a 600cc, maybe an older 750, but definately no bigger than that. Those of you who ride, do you have some input for a first bike?
Also, any idea on what the best way would be to break it to my mom? My dad doesn't mind, he used to have 3 bikes back when he was my age, but I'm pretty sure my mom's gonna flip.
thanks,
