So I'm thinking about getting a street bike sometime next year, any suggestions? Mind you I'll be 17, so anything that seems good for that age group.

Ninja 250r. A friend of mine has one and likes it.

Enough bike to be a bike without enough power to get you in too much trouble.

That's what I was thinking actually, that or I can find some decently priced Yamaha FZ-6R, those seem nice.

I don't recommend a 600cc bike for someone that age, you will get in trouble or drop it. My older sister traded her vw bug for a CBR 600RR and it was wayyyy too powerful. That thing will pull wheelies thru 3rd gear, pretty unnecessary for a first bike. Yes, she eventually dropped it lol.

Suzuki 90, Honda 100, Yamaha 250, Honda 450 - 4, Honda 750-4

Starting at 15 I progressed up to a 750 buy the time I was 20.  Start small and work your way up.

I have to say the same thing. Go small and work your way up. I stated on a Honda 450 nighthawk, then went to a Honda 650 nighthawk, next was a Suzuki gsx-r 1100 and last was a Harley Davidson soft tail (pic here some where). After moving to Florida, no more bikes, I was tired feeling I was in a war zone and I was the only target.

So I just took the MSF course ove the weekend. I'll be getting my permit sometime this week and I'll automatically have my license in 6 months. Time to pick a bike. Ninja 300ABS or a Supermoto?

Oh wow, the new 300 looks so much better than the 250r.
