Best Used Beginner Motorcycles Under £5,000! (Full License)

[@pggp273]

If you like being talked down to and taken for a mug go to superbike factory. If not look elsewhere as they really don't like savvy buyers that do their due diligence ask the right questions.

[@izzy8609]

My pick was the cb300r, absolutely love this bike and don't ever want to get rid of it

[@jonathandavies6862]

I was really similar to this. Started out on a cbf600N from Honda. Super reliable put 20k miles on it in 3 yrs did everything from touring, commuting and Sunday scratching and gave me the confidence and skills to move up to a bigger bike. The budget wasn't broken either and when you're just starting out you need to use some of your budget on more things than just the bike like buying gear and insurance for the first time. Great video mate keep them coming!

[@101BadBreath]

My Ninja 400 was £4250.00 for 2018 low mileage in perfect condition, and preppy enough for a returning rider who has been away from riding for around 25 years. For my new to the sport girlfriend we got a 2021 CFMOTO 300SR older stock from the showroom floor, £3300 for a brand new starter bike!

[@lundog8548]

I would have definitely thrown some KTM’s in the mix the 390cc is a peach in all guises it’s right up there on power to weight with most 500’s. I’m an experienced rider and have had many different bikes but I ride 390 Adventure and it’s very much underrated, light fun to ride capable on and off the road and looks great. Also managed to get it brand new for exactly £5000.

[@OLICIT]

The CB500F is physically a bit bigger than basically all the MT’s. I’ve sat on several bigger capacity bikes that don’t feel any bigger physically than the CB500F, which is great bike that would suit a large majority of riders

[@jefflambert8603]

Great Bike with Amazing Fuel Economy Can get up to 80 mpg

[@VoiAhoyTV]

I’m currently doing my dad course, so I’m looking at all the options available to me for when I get my full license. The sv650 is every motorcycle school’s favourite training bike and I don’t want to feel that an instructor is following me around 😂

[@colindeans5972]

CBR600F 97-2007, fantastic and cheap as chips. SV650 or a V Strom are cracking too.

[@graemetaylor629]

No mention of any royal enfield ? Strange but then it does just seem like an advert for the superbike outlet

[@TheLastCrankers]

But late but for other ones: only very recent royal enfields are worth considering (2020-up), the previous ones were still plagued by teething problems of the new production lines, so at the time of making the video, there probably weren’t that many enfields available from that time. Still very noteworthy now, you should be able to find quite a few of them.

[@stuartharvey7677]

I love how it said beginner and is on about 650cc up lol should of started with 125cc up just pushing whats in the shop

[@Thegeordiemonkey]

Everybody should have a honda minkey/grom/dax in their stable, i guarantee you will ride it more often.

[@nottobeseen6414]

Im 15 and I’ve actually worked on a Kawasaki ninja 600 engine before taking it from a bike and into a go-cart for my mechanic extra learning at school a while back it was a amazing experience im sad my school cancelled all the extra learning but it truly does have quite the power so id personally have to go with the Kawasaki ninja

[@destickert1307]

I also started on a er6-N in 2008, bought it new from the dealer with a 1000 EUR discount because it was the model from a year before (paid 6500) This bike is just perfect for beginners as it is easy to handle and still powerfull and fast enough to get your heart beating high.

[@jefflambert8603]

I have Been Riding for Years Done the Big Bike Stuff now Back on an Z650 nice & Light Fun & good MPG..in this Cost of Living Crisis these 500-650 Bikes make a Lot of Sense as well

[@The1977andi]

Went there a few weeks ago to sit on a few bikes, best thing I did as a few of the bikes surprised me of how big and heavy they are, I've ended up with a cb300r.

[@andrewgovan1872]

Really considering getting my first bike always loved the look of the Ducati monster

[@vilmos_csehi]

Great summ up as usual. ...but I find it hard pick against a good old affordable reliable practical and rider friendly NC750 (any gen, any model) as a first bike.

[@rt67678]

So happy to see an SV650 in this video 😊

[@houjous5131]

If I was buying a 5000‐ish £ bike... the 390 duke or the husky 401 versions is probably the right way.

[@joz119]

Great work thanks brother 👍

[@abhidhoundiyal]

I love Classics and nakeds, they are so fun to ride. I own a CB350rs but really hoping for Honda to launch cb500f here in india. Cb500f and Street Twin are the two bikes that i really like to have

[@jefflambert8603]

They are good Bikes .. Period Not just Beginner Bikes . That Phrase is Bandied about All the Time. New Riders sounds Much less Condecending i think

[@samuelvalentine4641]

Could you do this video but at normal shops that are cheaper or gumtree?

[@clubstyleridahd4695]

Have you ridden a built Harley low rider s yet? Not sure if the performance Harley scene is very popular across the pond or not.

[@mitchellkirkpatrick5714]

At first, I was surprised that the trident wasn't on this list then I thought about it and I doubt you'd find a decent one for 5k

[@Dean-does-Stuff-81]

I never understand why maxi scooters don’t get on these lists. My 350 Forza can keep up with most things to 80mph, has loads of storage. Abs, great fuel economy (and you can still smash some B roads if you really want to) pretty sure you can almost buy it new in the UK for 5 grand too…

[@des1915]

Seem to be missing Royal Enfields out, an interceptor or continental gt650 is just as good looking as the triumphs but far cheaper and I know less power but many beginners may have an a2 licence so this wouldn't be a factor.

[@iBRXY19]

What if you are around 200cm high and above 110kg. Asking for a friend.

[@_WhatCeilings]

Any advice for Italy

[@plotonisradd]

great list but i gotta say man i think the new cl500 from honda will dominate the beginners market

[@motobob]

Agree it looks really good! Will try to get one to review ASAP

[@plotonisradd]

@@motobob i know you will get it soon and do a good job reviewing it , love your content man

[@PhilWare1]

Can't go wrong with a Street Triple...

[@ericmwaba]

Great video

[@user-rf9me7xm1w]

An interesting presentation but the most fun to ride, lowest seat height, lightest, most economical, most well built, most reliable, most good looking, most agile, best value, most suitable first over 125 cc bike for a new rider, is not mentioned here.

[@vincentjerry7123]

Great summary , great bike., the superbikefactory does they do international delivery Africa and more priestly Nigeria

[@sdamle2083]

Good list

[@Mr7O5]

I just bought a 2010 CBF600SA ! $3800 with only 14000 km

[@geedub2019]

Can't decide on a ZX6R or ZZR1400

[@StevenLawson]

That was fun, you should step out of your comfort zone more often.

[@rt2255]

5 gs for used small bore bike, no thanks 2 grand max for used 400 twin

[@abyyy490]

Buy a classic or interceptor.

[@LEEGOOVER9901]

No mt 03 600 or mt-03 300?

[@vybranttanaka]

no royal enfield in this one?

[@K113-A]

What? No turbo busa?

[@vinaychinthla314]

Ucome to india these all bikes will be a superbike here

[@himanshumeena6544]

Haha can't disagree, it is what it is.

[@slipknot5037]

My first bike was a mk 1 r6. £1800 bargain.

[@korazon3spinado]

Maybe he's talking about used?

[@JDeezle21]

Get a Ninja 650 and call it a day

[@iNFiN3]

my first bike, got some potential but not to scary

[@lovelessissimo]

Rule 1 of newbie riders: Don't buy a bike you love. Get a beater.

[@Paijo_Supaijo]

Most of the list are above 5,000 lol...😁

[@johnymolawan5334]

It says under 5,000 not below 5,000 lol

[@Ramonatho]

@@johnymolawan5334 you should be in the Olympics for those mental gymnastics you just perfected there

[@ddodywisnoe5219]

i think thats right...under 5000 for down payment....hahaha....

[@LunringNassar]

MOTOBOB I love the recommendations, but you have to factor in the costs of maintenance, repairs and even parts availability and price, especially the BMW you just recommended. best beginner bikes imo: (asia) Any Kawasaki 650 (ER6N's or ER6F) (Models around the 2000's to 2015, I always see great prices on them) Royal Enfield GT650 Any Inline 4 below 400cc's.

[@michaelmugo247]

Nice

[@domicam100]

I would never put a new rider on anything bigger than a 50cc

[@Johnsmitheny]

Never buy from superbike factory, absolutely lie and rip you off and hate if you have any sort of sense to push back or do due diligence

[@1990-t1j]

You said under 5,000!

[@janschkeuditz6065]

What is with the beginners bike crap. Some people never learn how to ride a motorbike .

[@teamtempest844]

Just read the Google reviews from 1 star onwards on SuperBike Factory. You're welcome.

[@colindeans5972]

Avoid at all costs, they're a bunch of charlatans.
