I went UNDERCOVER in GEORGIA to buy my "FIRST” motorcycle

Sean puts on a disguise and goes undercover at motorcycle dealerships to see if they will sell a Super Sport Bike to a new rider! After going to 3 seperate dealerships Sean was suprised about the outcome. This video is a warning to salesmen who want to sell ridiculous bikes to people for their first motorcycle, you might get a visit from the motorcycle expert!

[@timothycoyne5874]

One of the best things the Big 4 ever did, both for themselves and for the motorcycling community, was to start making lower powered bikes which still resembled supersports. I think too many beginners shied away from better beginner bikes because they looked dorky. Once 250-350cc bikes that looked like a 600cc sportbike became available, more people were successfully introduced to the sport without breaking the bank for the bike and insurance, without scaring themselves to death, and without needlessly dying. There will be tons of people who say they started on a liter bike or a full dresser and they were fine, but if we’re being honest, no one in their right mind would recommend those bikes to a new rider. Thankfully, better options are available, and they’re even fashionable enough for beginners to opt for them.

[@emersonp2877]

Amen to that! I learned to ride on a CBR125R. Only real difference that model year between a 300 and the 125 was the skinny ass tires 😂

[@donniehallaman7685]

Yea in 89-95 a 600cc sport bike was a decent choice but not much after that the average 600cc sport bike was no longer a decent beginner bike. One of the issues is that they are so well handling and easy to ride new rider's get a false sense of confidence on them, in my opinion of course for what that is worth.

no but he was pretty skeptical about it. You could tell he wasnt really comfortable with a beginner getting that bike. But you also dont want to be rude to the customer so he was probably trying to find a nice way to tell him he probably doesnt need that bike.

Unfortunately, some of the dealers just saw $$$. One of those guys bought a Busa. He's fine, don't know if he ever crashed it, but I don't really think that he enjoyed it all that much because it was just stupid fast and twitchy.

[@macroevolve]

@Travis : Maybe, but it doesn't mean he would be an experienced rider if he was knowledgeable about Bikes. I was really knowledgeable about bikes, especially off road bikes before I got a YZ 125, because I inhaled bike magazines (had subscriptions) since I was a kid many years before the first bike.

He said he was on a 600 Ninja,flying up an on-ramp and there was a semi in the nearest lane, so he ended up laying it down on the shoulder at 80 mph. We asked him why he was in the shop. "To get a Ninja 1000!" he answered. I wanted to get some life insurance on that dude SO bad. My buddy and I still talk about that guy and that was 30 years ago.

When I was looking at bikes I had no experience, the only place that was dishonest was the local car dealership that decided to open a bike sales shop. I was looking for a z650. They tried selling me a z900 with aftermarket parts. Salesman claimed that it's all throttle control you'll be fine. While some of that's true, you can't expect a new rider to know how to control the throttle smoothly when he/she has never done it. New riders are prone to panic grabs and making mistakes. Big bikes are not forgiving in that aspect. Also there is something to be said about starting on a lighter bike. Ended up buying a z400 from a different dealer. I was laughing internally when they suggested the z900 after had been doing research and sitting on multiple bikes I knew it was about the sale not the customer. Still wish I got the z650 as the 400 has served it's purpose but maybe I'll be ready to move up to the 900 now I have my riding skills down and experience. So new riders do yourself a favor. Get a smaller bike first and and ride for a few years. That way you're not spending a lot of money on something you don't know you'll like, you have time to develop skills needed to operate a bigger bike and when you do drop the bike it doesn't cost so much to repair. Also you're less like to get killed if you're going slower. Ride within your limits/skill.

[@dubbeljubobby]

This was a great “feel good” video. I really believe our motorcycle community has some great people out there and this kinda proves that. Not saying there’ aren’t some bad apples out there, but for the most part, well you know what I mean. We’ve all heard the stories, even I have quite a few. Honesty of the rider or new motorcyclist is a big one here. You were more honest than the, sorry but going to say this, the typical beginner motorcyclist. Like being a beginner is something less than adequate or something, man gotta get over that. Everybody starts some time, and I think we all want everyone to have success and the same joy we have when riding. So to all those new riders or riders riding for a long time but with little experience, just be honest with yourself and other motorcyclists. After renting motorcycles and being a tour guide for several years I can’t tell you how many people signed up for rentals or even tours and embellished or flat out lied about their experience levels. I know you’ve heard this too (daily). Most of them you can weed out, but some do slip through the cracks and end up on a bike (or ride) they shouldn’t be on. BTW - It never ends well. MSF, HD and several other safety and skill advancement classes are out there and all of them share the same goal. To make you a better rider and to help you bring the maximum enjoyment to your riding. Think of it this way, if your going to try skydiving........ Be honest. Great vid, stay well and ride safe. 🤙🏼

This is a well-conceived video. For my first bike (and first salesman) I bought a 1994 Honda CB750 nighthawk, right out of the box. I went in looking for power and speed, and had money to burn. The salesman sat me down before even looking at bikes, and we had a conversation about my lack of experience, my intentions for the bike (I was going to purchase then set out for San Diego from Chicago), and (oddly) my assessment of my sense of restraint. I wanted a fast sportbike. He flat out told me I didn't understand anything. He talked about the realities of a cross-country trip, the importance of ergonomics, and how I planned to use the bike once I got out west. He refused to sell me anything faster and more powerfull than the Nighthawk. Best salesman I have ever encountered.

[@reginaldwilliams3701]

[@jlyrojer]

I don't often talk about this, but your video hit home for me. In 2001 I had finished my first tour with the Army. During that enlistment I had purchased a Suzuki Marauder. It was an 800cc bike and I absolutely loved it once I got used to the larger engine. Up to this point, I had only ever ridden way smaller in the 350-600cc range. So there I was, on terminal leave and thinking about what my 9 to 5 should be while I was in the National Guard. I was always hanging out at the shop where I purchased my bike and knew everyone, so I put in an application to be a sales rep. At the end of my first month, I got into an altercation with our sales manager. The boke shop was just off the base, and there were a lot of young soldiers that found themselves with a lot of extra money (you can laugh, but for many of us those regular paychecks left us with money to spend). So these young kids would come in and they would instantly eyeball the TLR 1000 or the Hayabusa or the Honda R1, and NO RIDING EXPERIANCE. They took the riders safety course and wanted to jump right in there with the big boys. I would talk them down to bellow a 650, but 9 times out of 10, I wouldn't make a sale. My sales manager was chewing me out one morning before we opened and told me, "I don't care about what happens to them when they take the bike out the door. If they ask for a bike, that is the bike you sell them. These {expletive deleted) are fodder as far as I am concerned." I stood up, walked around his desk and punched him out of his chair. I took my shirt off and turned it in and told the office I would have the rest of my shirts back to them by the end of the day. When the owner started digging into what happened (in an effort to see about pressing charges against me) the other sales reps told him what was said. As a veteran, he took offense to this and fired the sales manager and called to offer me my job back. I didn't accept, but he and I had a long conversation about how the sales practices would change. Riding is an experience that should be enjoyed. You want return customers. You want them to recommend your shop to their friends and get them ridding. You customer base is not an expendable commodity or simply a paycheck. I say expose the bad ones. I fully support what you have done. Maybe more of these shady shops would straighten up if they knew they were being policed by a knowledgeable customer base. And now I miss my Hayabusa. Stupid hurricanes.

[@Builditathome-Restoration]

Whaha funny vid. You got me back into pitbikes agian. Bought 5 pitbikes and doing build serie on them😃

[@jtrlatinist2227]

I walked into a harley dealer as a 21 year old first time rider. I wanted an electra glide. The guy didn't even blink. He walked me over to the cheapest ultra they had and sold me it. I dropped it the first time I got on it. The guys at the dealer ran over helped me pick it up. Then they said it's a great bike and good luck. The first road trip I went on the chain tensioner went out 3 states away from home. I wished they talked me into dyna or a sportster. That was an expensive mistake I'm still paying for 5 years later. Don't go to pike's peak harley davidson.

[@an_auto_addiction5742]

Awesome video man

[@lynchscustomauto8427]

Awesome work man

[@andresfernandez2405]

This dude was trying to convince me how an r1 could be a first bike

[@hostileaks4495]

Could be your first and last lol

[@tiberiu_nicolae]

The last bike you'll ever need!

[@dustinjames3764]

"I got a V8" car? "Suburban" bwahahaha!

[@lukefish9443]

Great job. Thanks

[@MB_dust]

Awesome content! So often I see people talking themselves into a liter bike 'as they will grow into the power...'

Salesmen after watching this: GUYS THE STORM IS COMING WE HAVE TO BRACE FOR IMPACT WE MIGHT GET HIT BY THUNDER!!!!!!!!

[@garnettjohnson5652]

That's clearly a wig - it's not even the same color or shine as the Beard.

[@Gh..o..s..t]

my hair is dark blonde and my beard is reddish blonde two different colors

[@richardashwood5771]

I’m an old grey beard that started riding on a 305 Honda Dream when I was 15. A year or so later I walked into a HD dealership inquiring about a new XLCH Sportster. The owner of the shop laughed at me and told me when I wear out the 305 come back and see him and maybe then he’ll talk to me about buying a bike from him. That guy no doubt saved me life. I ended up going back to him two years later and bought a brand new XLCH from him. But that was way before the HD dealership’s became boutiques and were run by real bike riders. Take me back to those good old days.

[@jamesdawson4582]

This is exactly what happened to me when I purchased my first bike from South Bay Motor Sports. It was a show room, 2005 Kawasaki ZX10-R. I always wanted the best of whatever I bought, not knowing the trouble I was headed for. First of all, I'm 5'6". I was on my tip toes to keep the bike balanced. I was scared, but to proud to show it, so I had them load it up unto the back of my pick up. I eventually ended up crashing twice in my garage, dropped it a few times and ran into the back of a van which sent me to the hospital for stitches. I continue to ride and am now in the market for bike. I just wanted to say how much I appreciate your labor and concern for the beginner riders while keeping these motorcycle dealers honest. May God bless and keep you safe sir. Thanks

[@akwlb2]

The second guy didnt talked you out of buying a fast bike. YOU did, he wouldve sold you that bike knowing you had no experience.

[@jamesbarrick3403]

That is what I was thinking. He was a good salesman IMO. I used to sell cars and I learned really quick that if your customer has some idea of what they want... you had better sell them what they want. Nothing immoral about that at all.

[@akwlb2]

@@jamesbarrick3403 a car is a car. A bike is something dangerous and putting so much power to a hand and a throttle with someone has no experience with is an easy death sentence. People on Craigslist have more integrity on selling such dangerous machines.

[@MattPerry]

@@jamesbarrick3403 Yes, it´s immoral, you gonna profit for their suicide.

[@jamesbarrick3403]

@@MattPerry First off, I was talking about cars. Big difference. But regardless no it is not immoral at all. If any person wants to buy something you may think is not in their best interest... well either you are going to sell it to them or they will go elsewhere. Not my job to be anybody's nanny. BTW I bought my first cycle when I was 17 years old... I bought a 1982 Honda CB500 Custom v-twin. Not crazy by today's standard but it was not a beginner bike in 1983. I had never rode even a dirt bike before. I drove that thing home and taught myself to ride. 35 years later and many cycles later I still have never laid any bike down. Some people can handle it.

[@MattPerry]

@@jamesbarrick3403 It is immoral, a child would see that one...

[@bluej511]

I started on a cbr600f4i probably 10 yrs ago or so, never ridden in my life but very mechanically inclined. I took the msf course in MA AFTER buying it. Picked it up no time, rode with a bunch of racers on back roads and they thought I rode for years. I think starting off on a bicycle honestly helps more then you think. I think 1000cc is a bit much to start off with. If you're not gifted, don't ride bicycles or anything then taking the msf course and starting small is the best. They thought me to look where I wanna go not mid corner. Unfortunately had a bad accident caused by someone else and have dealt with health problems since. I miss it though.

[@stephendeben1590]

learn how to blast through trails on a mountain bike, then get on a moped for a lil bit, and THEN get the motorcycle

[@focusgazblay3177]

The fact your video had over 800 dislikes 👎 is exactly why you should keep up your great videos and your great advice you deserve all the success in the world proper company and a genuine guy 🏍💨👍

[@vatodad]

I want to thank you for promoting videos that expose the greedy scumbags. I was impressed that 3 out of 3 did it properly. I am rather surprised that none of them attempted to push the expensive overpowered bikes on you. I've been writing for 50 years and never cease to be amazed at the morons are riding high powered street bikes and make bike riders look like irresponsible idiots. I think we need a bike that exposes those fools is well. Again thank you so very much!

[@tmac1572]

I did this once. Went to a dealership and asked what would be a good dirtbike for me. At the time i was 120lb and the salesman insisted that i purchase a 2016 yz450f race bike which clearly would have been too much bike for me... Idiot just wanted to sell me the most expensive bike possible. Needless to say i just left and will never go back .

[@thomaswarren2699]

I love the blatantly fake hair - I'm sure the dealers were thinking "Is this guy bald and in denial or something?"

[@martin72345]

Earned yourself a new sub. Great video. Great topic, probably the best "watch this video if you are new to riding" out there.

[@MarcusSchneidervlogs]

glad people are looking out for the safe riding

[@DaddyBear3000]

I went on the back of a Ninja 1000cc when I was a kid and a few of my parents friends had Ninjas. So I always wanted one. I got my licence then bought a Suzuki TS125 X which was a fun bike to get experience on. A few years later I hit the dealer and took a test ride on a Ninja 650, I hated it. At 6’3” I was too tall for it 😭 I bought a Yamaha Fazer 600 instead and loved it for years.

[@ajp33green]

20 years ago I walked into a HD dealership and asked what I should get. I was 21 and have never been on a bike and I made that clear. The salesman walked me right to a Fatboy and said it would be a great starter bike for me. Not cool, not cool at all. Thankfully, with the help of a few friends I started off on a Shadow 600.

[@MV-qm9ne]

To each his own...

Great video. My first bike (still current bike) is the '97 Valkyrie Standard. LOVE this bike

[@Bash-Bandicoot]

You look like X-Pac with the disguise hahaha. New to your channel, first vid I saw last night was the cheapest/most expensive atv video. Awesome stuff!

[@dopeytripod]

that wig makes you look like Paul Rudd from the movie "Our Idiot Brother"

[@billbright1755]

If he dyed his hair he’d be more unrecognizable. That disguise didn’t fool anyone. Those new pod rear fenders hurt my eyes. Look like snail eyes on a broom handle.

[@James-jx3ro]

Dyed - color change Died - dead as a door nail!

[@noahlail4018]

Mad respect to salesmen encouraging against something powerful and not to mention. Not a lot of people would pass up the chance to get commission on an expensive bike like that

[@vicmanjw]

Nice move on the gloves Sean, very stand-up I will say!👍
