Beginners Newbies as in haven't tried motrcycle before?

first thing first consider the following:

Purpose : everyday use, weekend warrior, leisure, etc

as niky have said, are you planning later to upgrade into a much bigger displacement bike (spotsbike, cruiser, offroad, touring, or a bigger displacement scooters)?

as a beginner you may choose on the following type of bikes

Scooter
Underbone
Pantra type
mini Sports bike

Halos lahat na scooter at underbone ay ok na ok better if you can visit the dealer and try to feel the ride by trying to sit on the bike itself.
