I agree with all those riders from the Pelican BMW R1100S motorcycle board that chimed in about getting a dirt bike first. Learn to ride and learn to fall. (Although my first fall was off a homemade mini-bike in the street. It was a bloody mess...)

Houston, first bike, tons of traffic and crazys. Pure street bike is not a good plan in the beginning. Riders are not equal in the beginning, or even through life. It's a continuous learning experience. Best to start learning in relative safety. Motorcycle accidents are very unforgiving.
