if you finance thats going to be thr first big mistake in a long line of mistakes you WILL make. pay cash. If your parent are giving you thr bike tell em would they rather they spend 8000 or 2-3 grand? plus you will need a few hundred for helmet, over hundred for cage etc etc etc

A FEW HUNDRED for a helmet???
Damn im gonna get fucked up on all of this, a few hundred for a helmet, 280 for the MSF, plus the risk of getting stopped without a license for the first few months (till Feb.08).
Man this is getting more and more expensive by the day.
I will definatly try to get a used bike.

but you can get a cheap HJC to start out with for $100 and up. If you fit one in the store then find it on ebay there even cheaper. I got mine years ago for $50.
Just make sure it fits tight. It sucks being on the highway and turn your head when your helmet shifts on you. I just got an Arai and there **** but damn expensive.

Re: Can someone help me out?
come on now...your already on a stunt forum asking questions. Your gonna be rocking power wheelies your first week. Financing is just a bad idea is all im saying. Especially when its your first bike. You can find a used bike all day for dirt cheap. Being patience is hard but its better then owing thousands of dollars for a scratched up bike. Your first drop/laydown whatever costs $1000. When you leave the dealer parking lot its just lost $1000. And you gonna drop it. Everybody does. Even if its opps the kickstand was up and fell over. Borrow a few thousand and you'll thank me later. Get a summer job and get a cheap f4i in the winter for $1500-2000 or get a mint bike for $3000-4000. I dont know. From experience I've been down your road and its never good.
