Begining Motorcyclists: Start Slow or Get Right In It?
#2
It's a really good question, specialist, and one that's been discussed here on a number of occasions. I'd offer a couple of observations. First, when I (and many of us) started riding a 750cc motorcycle was just about as big as it got, so we tended to start out on smaller bikes and work our way up. The Kawasaki Z900 was a size revolution.

Secondly, both the starter motorcycles you had were elderly, carbureted bikes which may explain some of the problems you had rather than them just being smaller.
