[@nickedds2907]

If you buy any 600cc bike for first bike buy the gsxr600, like he said it's seat is low and comfortable so if you lose your balance when coming to a stop you can catch it very easily and this bike has power modes so you can start with less power and as you get better change the modes to your skill. So the answer is YES it is a Great starter bike, builds skills fast and it can grow with you so you don't really need to buy any other bike unless you want that gsxr750 witch in my opinion also isn't that bad because it has the same features + it's better than all the other 600cc bikes. Trust me, they're your best bet.

[@mariol1436]

The K6-K7's and earlier models dont have power modes :/ the power modes come on the K8's and later models gsxr 600

Lovely. I want to buy my first bike and I am very much in love with this suzuki. Thank you so much for the highlight. What is the fuel consumption on this bike though. per gallon or liter over miles or kilometer

[@mariol1436]

@Benjamin Cavanaugh yes K1-K9 (2001-2009) and after that they are L0-L9 (2010-2019) and way before that in the 90's they were called the SRAD models or Suzuki Ram Air Direct. :)

Right on man someone who actually gets it, people talk like a supersport will ride you if you don't have much experience, it's just about how you choose to ride the bike with little experience. People tend to think sportbikes aren't that difficult and get in trouble fast. Twist your wrist within your skill level.

brilliant amazing run down on the bike. Thanks for making this crisp and to the point not winging and whining about the OEM and not screaming out of control. Your voice over perfectly complements the bike's tone and this a text book example of what a bike review should be. Please keep them reviews coming.

I subscribed your channel, just after this video since you covered more points than most of motovloggers with thousands of subscribers.

[@jenyouin]

Great vlog! This answered a lot of questions and gave me some things to consider and think about. This will be my first bike and I'm tiny. My dad's wants me to get a cruiser (preferably Harley) as my first bike but that's just not my style so I'm trying to do my research to convince him my decision will be an educated one. I have a level head and I liked your point on that being important. As well as the bike's power and it being only what you utilize of it. It was also interesting your point about the bike getting heavy quick in traffic and at low speeds; however I imagine even the lightest bike would get heavy in those conditions. Fortunately I'll be riding with my dad out on country roads for my first several rides to get me use to it and build my upper body strength by slowly increasing the ride length. Anyway, Great info! Look forward to more!

[@freedom14639]

[@LakeOfLitSterno]

A good articulate vlog from a fellow in control of his riding. I ride a Vulcan 900 cruiser, but the same things apply. Really, within its performance limits, every bike has a split personality in the top half and bottom half of the rev range. The more power you unleash, the more skill you need to handle it safely. The right wrist requires impulse control and matching to the situation, no matter how experienced you are. It's not finally the size or power of the bike, it's how much common sense you have between the ears...

[@Vanillaface760]

This was my first bike still have it to. This bike will do 82 mph in 1st gear it's plenty fast. Be responsible And always ride within your comfort and it's a great 1 st bike. I hit 155 mph on mine stock gears boo ya

[@kennythx9395]

[@JohnBarrets]

I think you're right in everything you said. It's not about the bike it's about the mindset. I turned 31 and I've been saving money for months, to get me bike driver license and then go for a 2nd hand GSX (no money for a new one). Why? Cause it's the only bike I like out there. I hate the sound of the 300/250cc, the skinny look That's why. Subscribed cause you seemed a reasonable guy. Looking forward your next vlog! Congrats.

ThrillsOfLife, this is by far the best video regarding getting a 600cc as a first bike. Like you I learned to ride off road. In my 40s now with kids all grown up so CBT has been booked but I want a Gixxer 600 as my first not a 125cc. The risk factor taking corners seems high though but surely this can resolved through time and practice?

[@jondadon3586]

Just like you I motor-crossed as a kid. I done my Cbt then I got a cbr125 6 months later passed my test and jumped on a srad750. You are bang on it is mind set and knowing your limits great vid cheers.

Great vlog. I've just passed my test and I went for a second hand CBR600F. I've come here with a background of BMX riding, race-prepped scooter riding, CBR125 riding (lots of) and 20 odd years of driving. I think your comments are spot on. Anyone can get a 600 sportsbike but it does require a bit of maturity. If you have the self control then I reckon it's probably safer riding a 600 than something less powerful. It gives you more options in day-to-day situations. You can twist and go before the trouble even starts - especially on M way slip roads joining fast traffic etc. I gotta say I find the big CBR even easier to control at slow speed than the 125. If you can get the inertia of the big bike to work for you - it's easier than riding a bicycle. As far as the corners go - the 125 is pretty good (with the right rubber) but the 600 is just leagues ahead. Just don't go in too hot and squeeze on the power progressively if it's greasy. You know all this - but I just wanted to add my tuppence-worth ! I'm keeping my 125 but the 600 is just fantastic. The only thing I need now is a CR 250 !

You sir are what a rider should be! My grandfather taught me to ride a motorcycle at 3 years old. Unfortunately I stopped riding after a bad accident involving a boy racer on the wrong side of the road on a blind corner. Bandit 650 was a right off as was my ankle. Now at 32 I have decided I need to get a bike again, I’m looking at a 1998 gsxr 600 currently. And this review has helped. Thankyou. Stay safe, ride clean.

[@dazhearn5431]

Good vid mate, just got a 600 K2 after a 250, and it is a beast if you want it to be, but like you say twist the throttle whatever suits you, no matter what all your mates are doing. Keep em coming👍

[@ricsim78]

I am getting a GSX-R 600 or GSXR 750 as my first bike. I am 39 years old and I have driven smaller motorcycles and dirt bikes, but I would consider myself an advanced beginner. I am a natural driver (picked up driving cars and motorcycles right away) and have driven on very bad roads with a small motorcycle in the Philippines where I met my wife. It is all about your mindset and understanding that a twist on the throttle can rocket you forward, more powerful brakes can cause you to lose your control. You can learn on any motorcycle, no matter how fast or powerful. That does not mean just anyone SHOULD start on a 600 or larger SS. Some will get hurt badly, cause damage, or even get killed. But if you can take the time to learn properly how to accelerate, shift, brake, corner, balance, and follow the road rules without trying to speed around like an idiot....you will be fine. If you are not going to push your luck, start with the basics, and take the time to advance your skills before pushing the bike, you should be fine. If you think you are going to hop on it and push the bike to the limits, you will be a statistic. While a Ninja 250, Ninja 300/400, Ninja 650, Honda CBR500, etc. are not quite as fast or dangerous, you can get killed on a scooter or even electric bike. Accidents, recklessness, and stupidity is dangerous or even lethal, every single time. As for myself, I am going to act like it is my very first time and take the MSF course after getting my permit followed by my license. I do not plan on being a statistic and I will be making Vlogs on my progress. Good video and points, I have taken note. I get my GSX-R by next month!

[@ricsim78]

Owned it for 2 weeks now, unfortunately it is down thanks to a leaking back brake (seal on rear caliper broke). No drops, hardest thing has been remembering to shut off the turn signals after turning (lol). I was nose diving a bit thanks to the front brake strength and killed the engine a few times on my first day thanks to bad takeoffs. Went all the way from Chicago to my home (40 minute drive) on my first time riding it. Put about 200 miles total (cold weather not stopping me at all). I am doing good now, took it on bad country roads with gravel and potholes, on the expressway doing between 60 to 80 miles per hour, screaming past semis, and all over the roads near my house. I am comfortable and now just working on improving everything, including practicing emergency maneuvers off the road. I made the right choice for me, but not everybody SHOULD start on a 600. But I am glad I did! The DMV test is much harder thanks to the turning radius and low speed maneuvers are harder on a 600cc + sportbike. Things to keep in mind. The brakes will throw you off if you lay on them (endo or wheeling without intention) are things that can happen but thankfully I have not done. Other than that, it is no different than any other bike to start on. Just don't think you are going to hop on it being new and test the limits, the bike will kill you quickly if you try and do that without the ability. I have kept it below 7000 rpms so far, only went over that twice and that is when it can really get away from you if you are not careful.

[@danieleffard561]

The gsxr is a great first bike, but the comments you made were all spot on correct, you do need to understand the bike and what it's capable of because although it only a 600cc it will bite back. Cracking video pal, look forward to many more.... Dan.

[@stu8506]

I also went this development route and the GSX r600 is a good first "real" bike. I still have it, it's plenty fast. It is good for both city and country riding. I got it because my model year (2011) got the best reviews and it is a relatively short bike as I am. Always be aware of others cus it's not just you on the road.

My first big bike was a 600 hornet, loved that bike. Moved on to the k9 gsxr 600 in 2009, it speed wobbled almost every corner "high speeds" then the L0 came out. So got that and never looked back. Just such an awesome bike and the fact I weigh nothing it can keep up with a 1000cc in a straight line pretty easily then in the twisties I can get the power down so much sooner and break so much earlier not much can touch it. Love the GSXR so much I traded in for a MOTO GP version of it last year. I would maybe consider the 750 but that wont be until they bring out a newer model.

[@davidjames1684]

600 sportbikes have smooth power delivery so they are reasonable first bikes. My recommendation is for a beginner, learn how to ride a dirt bike first out in a grassy field. If the person knows how to ride and this is their first street bike, then I would recommend gearing it down like -1 (or even -2) on the front sprocket to make starting off in 1st gear easier.

[@hjkropf]

that answered so many of my questions thanks dude

[@DrummerOnTwoWheels]

Great first video mate. I think you have covered everything really. Like you said, all depends on the rider. I past my test 2 years ago with no riding experience prior, my first bike was a 2008 Triumph Sprint ST1050, had that for a year and now I have just bought a 2015 GSX-R 750. I do wonder what would have been if I would have bought the GSX-R first though. ;)

[@stalos3094]

this was my first bike, and to be honest as long as you take your time to learn the bike, you could most likely ride anything for a first bike

[@freedom14639]

On a full licence Direct access in the UK you train in a 600 and some times up to a 750. Some peoples first bike after passing test is a 300 to 500 but some go straight for a 600. Each to their own. Last thing you want for street riding is a super heavy bike.

[@ArAlsulaiti]

I'm actually going to get my first bike, which happens to be a 600, and this really woke me up. I know I'm new to riding, but actually hearing someone say 'you're new, take it easy' really helps! So I'm actually quite glad I came across this video. Many say I probably shouldn't start on a 600, let alone a supersport, and I know deep down inside I shouldn't; but hell, how do you resist a piece of art in motion?

[@MDK1418]

Abdulrahman Alsulaiti how was it starting out on your 600?

[@luisalfredovalencia4734]

+ThrillsOfLife I agree in every single word you said. I just bought a L4 GSXR 600 as my very first bike (I rode a R-15 a couple of times before buying my gixx) and the bike is great, you just need to respect the bike as you said, the power is controllable I put it in B mode only the 1st and 2nd time I rode it. In my opinion it is a good 1st bike, the slipper clutch is great, and the "low end power" is enough for the streets. I don't have any regrets on getting my gixx as my very first bike, like I would have if I would started with a 250 or 300cc.

[@fl0sserelli]

I am considering the GSX-R600 as my first sport bike for the same reason. It has a split personality with the A/B modes, allowing new riders to progress with their experience level. like ThrillsOfLife said, it's all about riding within your skill level and not being overconfident or aggressive too soon. You can die on a 250cc if you ride like a fool.

Good review and I agree with you about having some riding experience but what if you have no riding experience at all ?

The size of the bike doesn't matter much if you start on a bike with ride modes. Just start off on the lowest mode and work your way up as you progress in ability.

That's what I thought. Ive been riding dirt bikes since I was young. 4 wheelers, mopeds, what have you. I think I will like this bike. Mike, MI, USA

This saturday i am getting my gixer 600 k3. The only bikes i did ride were 50cc "blowdriers", for about 5 or 6 times. 31 now, going to leave the car life and start a new beggining, already bought helmet, boots, and gloves, going to buy the jacket later on since i haven't got the license yet so i won't to able to ride it soon, at least on the streets.

Nice video! You might want to tape the speed indicator so you don't get law problems. Many riders try not to show the speed because of that. Question, do you think a person like 74kg could drive that bike? My uncle had a CBR 600 and he sold the bike because he said he needed to be bigger(heavier) to ride the bike properly.

[@josealbertoalejossanchez570]

Feels good to ride one of those, makes you want to go faster, love the feeling and yes at about 90 or faster it starts feeling weird, might be the adrenaline but I'll never forget the fisrt time at that speed...

I have a Gsxr 750, 150 hp for my first motorcycle ever. It's a little bit scary but I'm getting there...

"I had a 50cc but it was more like a hairdryer" I laughed so hard I was crying fr 5 mins

[@radicalkonrad765]

K6 gsxr 600 is my current first bike and I'm quite new and gotta say it's pretty great and tame, 8k rpm is a different story but personally I'm smooth sailing

[@buddyharshaw9140]

Good video man love my gsxr

[@bostonrushstoneshalen7701]

Great job with excellent commentary

[@joztunes69]

Yes, the 600 is a awesome first bike, I road a CBR600 F model and few years ago some kid had and it was aftermarket and felt like a 750 or 900 the way it moved

Bought one last week L4 gsxr600 after passing my test 1st time and never riding a big bike before loving it

[@saw6463]

Spot on it’s how u use the power

[@Marksim44]

I appreciate that you said this bike is not a great turning bike I love the looks of Suzuki but I guess the safe bike like an R6 would be best for a beginner like myself

[@ThrillsOfLife]

The Gsxr and R6 are both better at higher momentum and speed. They are both supersport bikes and any supersport will be completely different to handle than a bike you may learn on. Some say the R6 is even harder to master but I can't comment on that as I've never ridden one.

[@FadzliRealtor]

ThrillsOfLife Right and the sitting position on the R6 is very extreme. Uncomfortable especially for beginners.
