Aren't they are also called Power bikes? grin. I thought they both meant the same thing. What's the difference a Sport bike and a Power bike? Help a novice out. Thanks.

I dont think you'd be wrong if you call them Power Bikes. It's a slang (perhaps coined in Naija).Just the way we call cars by slangs such as ''Ride".As for your interest in Biking , before starting you may wish to consider some factors - for instance how far out do you wish to ride mostly - long or short distances ? What type of roads would you be riding on most of the times ? Would you be riding everyday of the week ? etc.
There are various types of Bikes each designed for a purpose.Not to say they cant serve other purposes but best suit a particular purpose. eg in cars we have the SUVs, Sedans, Coupes, Estates, Heavy duty etc. Now imagine buying a heavy duty truck for your everyday commuting ! Driving it to and from work everyday. Not that it wouldnt serve your purpose.But it just was not designed for that !
You can easily categorise Bikes based on purpose or engine capacity. There are Sports Bikes, Touring Bikes, Dirt Bikes etc. Then the 250CCs, 500CCs, 600CCs, 750CCs,1000CCs, 1100CCs, 1400CCs etc. The 1000CCs and above are called Super Bikes. They can hit 0-160 KM/H in less than 5 Seconds !! If you are a fan of accelaration ! Needless to say - these are the Bikes to avoid if you are just starting.

I respect you chaps that ride in Naija especially when you go to these far flung places bearing in mind that there is so much insecurity and the roads are in a very poor state. The turnout looks kind of low. Over here you would get as many people that attended your convention for a regular Sunday morning meet. Conventions?! All I can say is the police hate them.

Here is a picture of yours truly on the black Yamaha on one of our Sunday morning rides.

Nice bike.

I cycled a Honda Hurricane CBR1000F through my stable in years past.

One of the memories of that bike was a 155mph speeding ticket. Oh the insanity of youth.

Thanks for sharing.
