but im not sure if i should start driving first or riding first, i have no experience in driving nor riding
The best course of action would be to drive first; learning the rules of the road is safer on 4 wheels than on 2.
College is going to be a REAL challange for you if you can't form complete sentences and use a little punctuation when you write. :frown:
It is very difficult to read that way.

Yes a ninja 250R is a good investment more so if you buy on used, you will get a great price on it and it wont lose a huge % of it value if you don't pluck it up. But I wouldn't suggest anyone learn how handle public streets at the same time as learning to ride. Learn to drive, go to college, finish, get a good job, take the MSF then buy a bike...UNLESS you have rich parents, then have tem buy you a car, learn to drive, have them pay for your MSF course, have them buy you a bike, learn and love riding, then go to college, have rich parents pay off your student loans get a good job and stop leeching on your parents. :thumbsup: In the "rich parents" route its only right to change your parents diapers when they get old and senile as a way to say thanks.

Definitely learn to drive first. It's a much bigger step going from no experience on public streets to operating a bike. That and of course it is generally more practical to have an economical fuel efficient car versus a bike (unless you live in Southern California or similar environment).
