Hey, all.
New to the forum, and a new rider as well... love the look of these new Rebels, so I'll be picking one up as my first bike... just not sure which one to get yet.
I have a minibike I've been riding since last fall, and I took the MSF 20 hour basic riding course last weekend, which I did very well in... just waiting for the completion card to come so I can go get my "M" endorsement on my license.
Some would recommend starting with the smaller bike, then moving up... but with these bikes being brand new, there's not really any deals to be had... so trading up from a 300 to a 500 is almost guaranteed to lose money.
And in the grand scheme of things, it's not like the 500 is a powerhouse crotch rocket... it's still a small cruiser.
Basically, I'm trying to convince myself that starting with the 500 is ok lol.
