Over 8 years of not riding a motorcycle I decided to buy a liter bike! What was I thinking? Today was my first ride and I feel very much like a newbie. So much to learn....

He's a braver man than me. I picked up an R1 a month ago after not riding since 07'. A month of crack of dawn Saturday and Sunday riding before I rode midday traffic. Rode all my normal routes with minimal traffic to get used to the bike. Previous bike was a old 90 something gxr600. Big leap to the 05' R1. Respect the power.

True respect the power, I still have my old 1999 R1 and still respect the power. Exiting a corner leaned over; hard on the throttle in 2nd or 3 rd gear still takes some restraint just in case I hit some slippery pavement. 17 years and counting and this old R1 . Better to be safe to some degree than sorry and high side. I remember back in the day many guys crashing them because they were so powerful and light compared to previous bikes.

I took the Harley Davidson motorcycle course over three or four days, but it still did not prepare me what the power of that kind of engine could do. I really didn't get comfortable with it for at least six months riding a couple times a week. BUT, after I got used to it wow what a ride. Just to test my skills I took it up to 130 one day on the freeway to see if I could handle it. Yeah what a rush !!!

Just a comment about one other guy I knew some time back, so don't take this as a comment on you or what lays ahead. This guy had ridden a little when young, some 90cc bike mostly off road. 12 years later after no riding he purchased a liter bike and rode much as you have in this video. After riding about 8000 miles with no accidents, he went for one of those great morning rides with the cool but not cold temps. About two miles from home, he was feeling really good and comfortable on the bike and confident he had dodged the problems coming up the learning curve. At a stop sign, he had something less than a 90 degree turn to make and decided to accelerate quickly (not really hard as he tells it). As you can guess an accident insued, the liter bike first broke traction at the rear tire and started sliding, then lifted the front wheel, the now experience rider naturally closed the throttle as quickly as possible and when the front wheel touched down, the bike tossed him as he also said 10 feet in the air in a high-side. Now if you can explain all the issue and conditions that led to the accident, you are ahead of the curve, but regardless you still are riding a machine that can kill and cripple the best riders on the planet so NEVER lose the respect it is due. Good luck and ride safe.

It wasn’t until I got my motorcycle a couple days ago and have been riding that I realized why people say don’t buy a big bike as your first one. Sure, if you don’t screw up, you’ll be fine. If you never accidentally drop the clutch too fast, or accidentally give too much throttle in a turn, and never accidentally do anything wrong, you’ll never have a problem. But I’ve come to realize that in certain situations when there’s a lot going on around you, I tend to sometimes accidentally give a little too much throttle, or Mis judge my clutches friction zone, and I’m safe when I do that because I picked a slower bike. But in a liter bike? I imagine I wouldve dropped it already because it’s not forgiving like mine is.

You don't just start from day 1 on a litre bike because you have the licence, but someone experienced on powerful dirt bikes or even a 125 and has been riding for a long time and has the maturity and respect for a powerful machine can certainly ride a litre bike in low performance mode if available.

Fast forward, bought this beast and dropped it a few times twice on low side and three other times by getting too enthusiastic with the front brake on gravel. Attached the mirrors back on fairing and off we go. It goes well over 2,, and it wants to rip my arms from shoulders, but it a whole lot of fun for a old crazy geezer like mw.

I just got my license and first bike, ninja 650. I haven't rode a bike in like 10 years and at that I had only rode a couple of times. So yeah I have that newbie feeling myself. I live in central Florida where there's a lot of traffic and people who can't drive for shit so it can be a little overwhelming at first but I'm trying to master this shit. You look like you were doing just fine though. I guess like with anything else, the confidence and knowledge will come with time.

@@codysnell i will most definitely hit you up. I'm a little under the weather right now but when it gets a little cooler out in the next month or so maybe we could meet up for a little ride or something. I havent really done long distances and i really don't know many places to go but we can figure it out.

Ok so here me out here. I'm 20 and I just completed my endorsement and my manager has offered me his 2014 r1 ( which is my dream bike) at low mileage for only $2500. It's 1000cc and while i'm one of the safest riders and i'd never do anything stupid, im wondering if it'll be too heavy and powerful to safely handle with little experience. Im 6 foot and 190lb so I can probably handle the weight. I really feel like I wont find a deal like this on my dream bike and any decent sv650 or ninja is easily over 3k in my area. So what im wondering is should I go for it, its the best deal I can find and its my dream bike. Thanks!
