Try a scooter...

You may not want to be leaving a Busa in the parking lot while you in class on a regular basis. But the Busa is a very fun bike.

If you buy a used bike just inspect it closely. Take pics and post them under 'general bike topics' and get some opinions . good luck and

If you just started riding, DO NOT BUY A BUSA! you wont make it through college

[Mr Bogus]

SV650 maybe? Lots of good commuter bikes out there

Katana, the new Gladius, SV650, GSX500F, Ninja 500 or 250, How much do you have to spend? Welcome to the oRg.

to the org. I would highly recommend taking the MSF course first my friend. After you pass that, then I'd start shopping around for a USED first bike. The Kawasaki Ninja 500 or Suzuki SV650 are really good starter bikes. Good luck, be safe, and keep us posted.

I started with a 650 Nighthawk 1985. I put a rotor lock on it when I was in class. Also I would get 50+ mpg back and forth to class. My 08 Busa only gets 36 in town and 48ish on the highways (if I am not a throttle jokey). Also you won't cry to bad if/when you drop it. I am assuming it is a first bike. Just make it one that is big enough for you but people won't be too tempted to mess with it. What ever you get enjoy
