Superbike of London so it is still SOL.

I have heard that the Kawasaki h2r is a good beginner bike!

[@fortnitedefaultskin4167]

Haha. I don't think the H2R is even road legal.

[@camsty1225]

Fortnite DefaultSkin it can be if you do some slight changes 😂

[@bobmizen1]

But it’s not a Honda which is the point of the whole thing.

Typical youtuber says he is going to do something an few months later its completely forgotten about. Same with Archie and his Go Kart and sim racing.

[@tedtheturbot]

His channel interest dropped off a bit so his drifting sponsors pulled the plug..

Remember when they all took their ARDS and instantly became racing drivers!

An automatic is like cheating on your gf with her enemy!!! 🏍🙅‍♀️

Please add subtitles when riding or step up the helmet mic quality pls

i would take Africa Twin no questions asked.

My first street bike was a Norton 850 bought in Md...had 4 eventually... but my first dirtbike was a honda sl70 !

[@whma0801]

Hell yeah! Bike life!

[@markchip1]

Just a thought - if you want to consider off-road riding, you need to understand that learning and gaining those specific skills/techniques is nearly as much of a task and as time consuming as just learning to ride on the road! BOTH require significant investment of time, effort and energy.

[@munraajmangat3534]

Awesome seeing some new and different stuff

[@AlanDoubleYou]

I love that you are getting in to motorcycles, I don’t know how many KZbin CarsSpoters I have told to do Bikes, it’s Beautiful thing❤️ And I’m more for BMW ❤️

YES!! PAUL ON TWO WHEELS! Welcome to the riding community Paul! I can’t wait to see your adventures and experiences with your bike!

[@stevepest3184]

Do more motorbike videos I’m just starting lessons good watch cheers

[@egg250]

Glad you're enjoying riding. Good luck with the audio next time 😉

[@craigsellars38]

Well done, enjoy yourself, have fun and stay safe on the roads Paul.

[@AndyWJP]

I had a CBR600FX which was the older gen bike of what you picked. I used to do clutch-less up-shifts without a problem for maximum acceleration. The handling was great and that made it safe to ride fast IMHO. Speed plenty fast enough, but had to get the revs up which could require a lot of down shifting for say overtaking. And this kind of bike makes you want to ride at high speed to get the thrills. The more upright bikes likely have more low down torque and wind pressure to give a good acceleration and sensation of speed at legal road speeds. My favourite bike out of the many that I owned.

[@andyfairchild2383]

Good choice Paul! I’d have gone for the Blade or Africa Twin, but I’ve been riding for 30 years. As a new rider the 650 is spot on. I’m still not sure about DCT on a bike though. My last two cars have been dual clutch and I love it, but I remain to be convinced of its value on a bike. I don’t use a bike to commute, just a weekend toy so perhaps it’s of less value to me.

[@Baleur]

The constant fawning over the automatic gearbox makes me wonder why ride a motorcycle at all, if you just want it to slowly become a self-driving Tesla. Using the clutch and shifting gears is part of the experience, part of the endless curve of personal improvement as a rider, same as when driving a car with a manual. Choosing an automatic is like saying "i dont want to learn to feel the full experience of the machine, i want the half experience because its easier".

[@alpha1k-]

The fireblade is the only bike in there you should buy. It has power modes so you wont be killing yourself and you can grow into it. And when your feeling more comfortable you can simply change the power mode.

[@adrianhh]

Would be cool to see you on the cbr 650r!

[@disciplinefreedom3083]

Great to see content you passionate about Paul....looking forward to some cool adventures.

[@PotassiumPechlorate]

I love your channel and I absolutely love how you use youtube and cars to make people's day

[@allensaunders449]

If you read the comments and follow the amount of views normally people are not that happy with the content of thid channel. I feel the whole motorcycle thing is trying for worthwhile content desperately

[@jonathanbeck7329]

How is your drifting carreer going???

[@bal4av]

Dude, test your GoPro image guidance with your phone. That angle is just off!

[@lwdesign3743]

Definitely the right choice! I have a 2003 CBR 600 F and even after 4 years of riding motorbikes it's still really exciting and fun to ride. And it also offers everything: it's quite comfortable, sporty and super reliable all at the same time!

[@danieldesouza2555]

That should also be my first bike too. Can’t wait to get it.

[@kilmaclad1kilmaclad128]

I heard that the suzuki hyabusa is good but you really need to add a turbo to grt the most out of it for your first bike

[@Dankeller69]

I went from a BMW g650 gs to Aprilia Tuono V4 1100. Its all in the wrist is to how fast you go. Also Most sports bikes come with Quickshifter and auto blipper so it negates the DCT gearbox.

[@MotorcycleMumbling]

Nice choice. I started out on a Honda VFR800 over 15 years ago and have never looked back since.

[@vinnie5519]

At last welcome to the club 👍

[@AA-ke2ns]

Loving the bike content Paul keep it up amazing

I a 650 no matter how long you have been riding a 650 is a great motorcycle and I like the paint design..Have fun, enjoy, look out for those large 4 wheelers.

[@ryanbell4952]

Welcome to the family, I’ll come out for a ride with you anytime.

[@kirad2234]

You can go straight from a 125 to a 500 after passing?

[@Jakesbikes]

Congratulations! The 650r has got to be the best choice for yourself there, nice and tame in the low rpms but exciting when you give it some! Looking forward to the vids after you really get to know bikes

[@Rob-on5tz]

Personally i'd go for an NC750X DCT. Perfect all rounder. Happy biking fella.

Get the Africa Twin. A great first bike and sat upright. The sports bikes are not comfy on long trips.

[@marcislazdins1467]

pro tip, hold your clutch with 2 fingers, because if you hold it with all your fingers you arent holding the stearing bar in case of an accident

No body wants a twist and go superbike. The great thing about riding is being connected to the bike and changing gear is all about that.

try putting a chin mount on your helmet the angle would be better and connect a mic. in your gopro

[@richardreynoso91]

Congrats bro

[@TruckerMatty93]

Lol Paul is more interested in the paint than the bike

[@summoner1451]

My first bike was a GSXR 750. I say go for one of those. 750 is the best of both worlds. It has more power than the 600s, but it's not as powerful as the liter bikes. So you're less likely to kill yourself while being new. I did ride dirt bikes my whole life before buying that bike though. So i wasn't some fresh fish going straight to the GSXR 750.

[@davidbevan4410]

I got a Suzuki GSXR 1100 WP 1993 and it's a handful lol but i have been riding on off for 33 years :)

[@HimanshuSharma-ki3hs]

nice pick !!650cc is the best category. .!!

Noooo you should’ve gone for the CB1000R!

Fireblade is a gentle giant I would have gone for that or the Africa Twin. You will get bored of the 650 rather quickly.

for your first bike you really need to stick to a geared bike just to build up your experience using gears

[@F1ll1nTh3Blanks]

It has to be a CB/R650R. Or if not CBR500R because of A2.

Maybe leave the Fireblade for the moment.... It won't be trifled with. The 650R is a great choice.

[@nigelpstreet]

"Choosing my first Honda Motorbike" - unfortunately this is just a Honda advert.

[@CheapskateMotorsports]

So? Out of all the brands I'd say honda has the most diverse range. Besides, if Honda hadn't sponsored the whole thing would he have even considered 2 wheels? Would we get thousands of viewers being showed what it's like to ride a bike for the first time?
