I was wondering how long you wait or what factors you consider to determine when you get rid of your first bike to get a new second bike.

Forget trying to be a racer. Enjoy the darned thing for what YOU enjoy it for. Who cares about limits other than men with small dicks.

I would say if your enjoyment level drops with it, start looking at how much sense it is to sell and upgrade. Go for a new one if you feel it's worth it on all levels...for you.

Well My first bike was 1994 Honda F4. It was a great bike to learn on. But when I got it from a friend it was all ready laid down a few times. I road it for 6 months, and then I low sided it myself. I rebuilt it, but then I just didnt feel safe anymore. So I sold it!

It was about 1 year later until I got my new Honda CBR 1000RR.
I went to the dealer looking to get a 750 GSXR or 749 Ducati.......... But they were all out & even 600's
So I just went big and bought the 1KRR. I love it and will never go back down
I am a kinda big guy, so the 1KRR fits me very well.
