So i might want to wait a little, as i feel as if its the better financial decision.

Edit: That and I tried haggling for the bike but iono, it didnt work lol.
If you're shopping for a 1st motorcycle I'd steer clear of a sport bike (even a 600) unless it's a 250 or one of the newer 300s. Even "slower" sport bikes swerve, accelerate, and brake a lot faster than new riders can usually anticipate, which invariably gets them in trouble.

If you already know how to ride disregard this and get whatever the hell you want.
