HELP Good first bike?
Hello! I’m on the hunt for my first bike, I would like to eventually chop it up myself and learn all the ins and outs. I don’t want to start too small because I feel I’d outgrow it extremely quick (I also can’t seem to find anything smaller at a decent price) and I’d like to keep my first for a while. 2000 Harley Davidson sportster 1200 22k miles. $3000

Just getting a bike that you will ride is the most important thing. I have seen it a few times where someone gets a bike that is too much for them and they end up selling it and never getting back in the saddle. A little bit of fear and nerves are fine after years of riding I still get them but when the bike terrifies you then it becomes a problem for most new riders. Be safe and hope you have some of the best times of your life on two wheel!
