why do you guys even give a fuck about him scamming pixel?
about the bike a 500 or 600 is fine to start with.
500/600? Depends.
Most bikes for the 600 class in his range are going to be machines that have been beat for the past 7-10 years. In all honesty, if you are getting it to commute - 2009+ Ninja 250 (or you might even be able to snag a Ninja 300 for the low 3,000 range). If you dont want to ride either of those, good luck. I dont care if it's a female owner or a 50 year old owner, a sport bike is made to be ridden like a whore, and they are. Even if it's only 15,000 miles on the bike, they are going to be the hardest 15,000 you can imagine.
If you are willing to stray away from rockets (which I recommend unless you have previous experience on bikes), look into H.D 883s. Great bikes, decent resell (as long as you keep them pretty).
If it's your first bike, expect it to touch the pavement a few times.
