If you've never had a bike before, it would be a good idea to start off with a smaller bike than a full size touring bike. I'd suggest something in the 650 to 750cc range. Not a sport bike though. Something with a more upright seating position will be better for longer trips. Have to agree on a Japanese bike for ease of service, parts, reliability and dealer support. Shaft drive is nice but having a chain isn't a big deal. Once you have some experience, then you could look into a larger bike. They can be intimidating, especially as a first time bike. Taking a motorcycle training/safety course is the first thing to do. You might decide having a bike isn't for you. When you ride on the street, you have to always ride defensively and be really aware of everything that is going on around you. Not wearing a helmet is just plain stupid! You hit a tiny patch of gravel or someone cuts you off and down you go. With a helmet, you have a good chance of getting up again. Without a helmet, not so much. Always wear decent footwear and clothing. A leather motorcycle jacket with padded elbows and such is the best, even if it's 100 deg. outside. Road rash hurts! Dave
