Ya know, the ones whose first post is, "Oh, I wanna race my buddy's Camaro - and by the way I've never even ridden a bicycle!"

And yeah, a ZZR is pretty close to a supersport in my book.
All I am saying, is once they have taken the MSC, there are options out there based on responsibility. Not just the 250 or 650r.

Most of the people coming here asking for advice have actually sat on a bike.
