Lol I doubt that Bob was drafting new members for the forum, probably more a sense of perspective where the CB is rather mild in it's power delivery compared to even a 600 super sport which many kids start on. It's an easy bike to ride, handles well and has good brakes all things a beginning rider would appreciate. That said, unless someone admitted to years of dirt bike experience, I don't think it's a bike I would point a newbie towards for the reason that it a heavy bike and a beginner is surely going to drop it a time or two learning the ropes.
