A good bike to start off with?

[grandpa2390]

I am new to this. I was looking to get a scooter but it not affordable for me right now(I'm 17 and work at McDonald's) I figure it would take 6 months to afford a scooter or 2 weeks pay to get a motor and bike. So what I am wondering is what would be a good bike to start off with. I saw another post that was similar but didn't give any real answers. So what bike and what motor do you have. If you tell me this information as well as tips on what to avoid and what to embrace, I would be appreciative. Thankyou in Advance.

oh and keep in mind, I'm not much of a mechanic, my father has tools but I am not one to use them. Still list your bike, but i am looking for one that requires little if not any hacking.

I wouldn't go with the roadmaster from wal-mart, the chinese engine is not a good fit.
