Riding a scooter is a good start. Recommend you take the beginner MSF Training course (they provide the bike, usually a 250). If you feel comfortable with that, then starting with a 650 may be right for you. That is the route I took - and my first MC was the Wee. Always wear complete gear. Hi-vis is a good thing. Start with parking lots and country roads.....my teacher advised 1500 miles before you go into mountains and I followed that. Good luck!
