How do i into motorbikes?
Depends what country you're in. most require a simple training day to allow you on small cc bikes. start there
do research

Son, you on a travel board asking about motorcycles. Do yourself a favor and stay off them. You'll just hurt yourself.

Start by fucking off to /o/
>>1206808
go to /dbt/ on /o/
never, ever dress like the flamer you just posted in the OP because best case scenario you look like a hipster tit and worst case scenario you will be a smear on the road if you crash because of your 0 protective gear
Dual sports/adventure bikes with 50/50 tires are best for long haul bike camping and touring

Go to /o/.
I learned how to ride a motorbike when I was in India two winters ago. Loved the experience so much that I signed up for a basic rider course as soon as I got home. The day after I earned my endorsement I purchased my first bike.
If you live in the United States, I'd definitely recommend taking a BRC to learn how to ride and ride safely. The class isn't a lot of work and manages to be halfway enjoyable. The only problem I could really expect a newcomer to have is shifting. It took me a few days by myself when I was in India to really get the hang of switching gears without stalling.
Take the Basic Rider Course. Start on easy areas in 3rd world countries (like a calm island in Thailand).
Don't be an idiot and learn on your own or have some shopkeeper "show you the basics". In Vietnam I spent an afternoon helping an australian guy get to the hospital after he got run over by a bus because he panicked and didn't react correctly.

Appears to be a café racer made out of a Ducati Paul Smart.
I mainly agree with you, however Ryan Reynolds is supposed to be a legit bike enthusiast; I guess the hipster look is just a by-product of him being one of Hollywood hot shots. That and very light regulations regarding motorcylcing gear in most of the US.

1. get the license
2. prepare to shell out a considerable sum for gear and first bike
3. crash
4. repair bike at great expense/buy another one at great expense
5. see 3

You forgot
>Open face helmet
OP, if you want to into motorbikes, do everything opposite of your pic. Full face helmet. Proper boots that cover your shins. Decent gloves and a proper jacket. At a minimum. If you don't want leather pants at least get yourself some kevlar jeans. Don't wear anything like polyester/nylon or else it will literally melt to your skin in a crash. ALL THE GEAR, ALL THE TIME. Beyond that, it's just a question of researching the process of getting your license in whichever country you reside.
