I'm low on money and might have to choose between saving for a motorbike, or keeping internet access for the next 12 months, Both have cons and pros, It'll be a 125cc bike, as I'm a learner in the uk, I spend a huge amount of time on my pc, reason I don't currently ride Is I had a Chinese bike and it was dangerous and has zero weight on the front tyre so it would slide under me a lot, so I'm getting rid of that, But biker friends have said I wont have that issue with a Jap bike.. If I go for internet I can buy a folding bicycle, but Al have too use public transport still which I pretty much hate.. I can't decide which option makes more sense for a Jobless 21y.o (jobless due too illness.. I want to get into work soon as I am better) Any Advise/helpful replys would be great! xP

Riding a dirt bike is really a lot of fun (obviously, coming from a mountain biker), but having internet is also very handy. A hard decision. If you are getting a job in a few weeks, I would get the dirt bike - you can always use the library for free internet access. But if you have to wait a few months, I would get the internet. It would be a hassle to have to go to the library every day - unless you're okay with that. So if I were you, I would get the dirt bike.
P.S. The Japanese motorbikes are the better ones as your friends said.
Internet
Pros: Can work from home, still can get around at a decent pace, can use for entertainment and emergency purposes, can use to contact family, can be used for GPS and etc.
Cons: You have to use public transportation, which means you'll most likely have to wake up a bit earlier and you dislike public transportation, your movement will be slower than if you were to get the motorbike
Motorbike
Pros: You don't have to use public transportation and can get around faster, you won't have to wake up earlier, no more sliding around like with the other bike, you can buy an internet provider that lasts a few hours
Cons: No entertainment, no contacts, no emergency calls
Personally I would recommend the motorbike if you have work/college. Otherwise, internet, because you can use that for more than entertainment.
thank you :) I'm siding with internet first, since its like my life line xP
+Sir_Mittens You're welcome! And, I agree with the internet as well. It makes sense if your job allows you to work from home. You get entertainment, working from home, talking to others, emergency bonuses, and all that. But I'm not saying the bike is bad, because it's not. If you are getting a job soon, then you should get the bike. But you said you weren't, so that's why internet is the better option, in my opinion.
yiisss :3
Danke :)I'm thinking internet then job, then bike, unless I turn out better financially then maybe Net and Bike :3 then job so I don't cry when the bills come through xD
