I have often wanted a motorcyle of some sort but have never had a chance to actualy ride one, I have ridden quads and 3 wheelers before and they were a blast. With gas prices getting out of hand and having a old full size truck my weekend trips are getting shorter and further apart. So I have decided to sell off my truck and get a dual sport and I need some help to set in me int he right direction.
I am taking a basic riders course the first week of December, that will be my first big step. If I can sell my truck and all the goodies I have on it I should have a nice budget to work with. what should I look for in riding gear/helmets?
Here is a nice BMW650 I came across and it looks to be a really nice beginning bike

All the guys that ride at my work ride big Harley's and told me to start off with a 1100 and that I need a "big" bike, I don't feel like I do and want to start small what do you all think?
I am 6'3" 260
getting excited now and need to start selling some stuff...RTT, Fridge...truck:elkgrin:
