Bro.. Have you ridden before? If not it's best you go and learn how to ride. There are one otytwo in Lagos to get grips on how to. Another thing is it would be wise to go for a smaller capacity bike like 300-650cc, get to learn and be comfy before upgrading. Hope you know the other risks involved?? After checking all this and you clicked positive.... then why not..... I used to ride this 2002 Kawasaki ninja Zx6 some years back before I sold it. Sweet memories I must tell you.. For now I still dey eye madam first before I arrange buy a replacement. ![]() 1 Like

Alright.. well i have been riding for a while now. Firstly.. your first bike should be a road bike and not a sport bike. it is hard to get those broken parts when you let the fall. as a newbie. it ill still fall. Secondly.. going for regular brands like Yamaha, Suzuki and Honda. Avoid stories that touch with Kawasaki .. na over heating go kill you. 250-400cc should be your first type of bike and you will see them a little less. Avoid millennium bikes for now because you still new and checking for good mechanic and better learn about bikes. Investing in kits is important. Helmet, jacket, knee guard, elbow guard, boots and gloves. They are just for small safety in case of small crash. Goodluck and if you need someone to talk to then i you can whatsapp me on 00. It is fun riding as long as you can keep your attention 100% while riding.. Gluckdude20: 3 Likes |

nurey:those are Rd bikes, A power Bike is a Sport Bike. The vast Majority of what people call Power Bike in Nigeria are nowhere near power bikes. The average cost of a not so up market power bike is above £1500, in todays money that is almost N700K so do the maths bross |

Standard The Ducati Monster 696 naked bike Standards, also called naked bikes or roadsters, are versatile, general-purpose street motorcycles.[1] They are recognized primarily by their upright riding position, partway between the reclining rider posture of the cruisers and the forward leaning sport bikes.[3] Footpegs are below the rider and handlebars are high enough to not force the rider to reach too far forward, placing the shoulders above the hips in a natural position.[2] Because of their flexibility, lower costs, and moderate engine output, standards are particularly suited to motorcycle beginners.[1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Types_of_motorcycles |
