Next motorcycle vid. I put an akrapovic exhaust on my bike.

Good work fella. Welcome to biking. You won’t regret it. And the best thing? No Archie Hamilton...

[@SmokeyStoner]

Needs a louder exhaust :-)

[@MuhammadKharismawan]

Most part of the video its because the low freq audio is filtered out digitally.

[@LRS7B]

No… it just needs to go above a quarter of its maximum RPM 🙄

[@supremekunwor2780]

Use another setup for the go pro. Can get Better view on your helmet chin rather than on top of your head and microphone issues also gets less

[@jameskalas16]

Congrats on joining the club! One piece of constructive advice.... watch your lane positioning and always check your blind spots (shoulder checks) when coming off roundabout. Those simple checks have saved me a couple of times. Great choice of bike! I had an ‘08 CBR600RR as my first and absolutely loved it. Safe riding mate.

[@markchip1]

An advanced riding course is the BEST money you will EVER spend on motorcycling! Maybe do it next spring...

[@beano6452]

Get yourself signed up to do the IAM Advanced Motorcycle test ASAP. The best £150 I ever spent.

[@Afritunez]

Did u drop it?

[@jameskalas16]

@@Afritunez never dropped any of my bikes thankfully.

[@deanjackson8368]

That sense of freedom when on a bike, any bike, is like nothing else. All bikes are fast, even the 'slow' ones are faster than most other road vehicles. It's not the speed that's addictive, it's that sense of freedom. The noises, the wind, the exposure to everything. Love it. My one tip. Make yourself as visible as possible but always assume no one has seen you. Pre-empt everyone and everything! No matter how safe a rider you are, the statistics for not ever having an accident (your fault or not) are against you. Ride well. Ride safe.

Quick tip - as soon as you pull away, always (largely) close your visor, especially in summer/autumn as flies and midges are not only very painful as they hit your eyeball but the dramatic loss of vision is extremely dangerous as you try to find somewhere to pull over! 1cm gap is practical but more than 2-3 is frankly taking a risk!

[@kylekyle8131]

So glad you got a motorcycle! I couldn't see if you had riding pants on, if not , i suggest getting a pair, because they are life savers as well. In the future please try the MT 09 Yamaha or Triumph street triple rs.

[@kevinbrown957]

The "Lifesaver look" over your shoulder does just that "It Saves Your Life" use it or lose it !

[@ilyas_khan]

I’m curious, why are you told to do a right life saver when making a left turn? What’s the reason for that, and not actually looking over your left shoulder when making a left turn?

[@mikebader3863]

Wasn’t expecting this, but very pleased to hear you talk very sensibly around motorcycling. That’s a great first bike to get experience! Good on you 👍🏻

[@szn00]

Congrats bro...life is all about trying new thing...so keep up the good work

[@kjbhonda2645]

He's not trying new things, he's doing this for KZbin views. Not the love of it.. Hence why he went and picked a 30mph road on his first ride so the audio could hear him.. When I passed my bike test I took my cbr 600 to a road I could do over 100.. The difference between real petrol head enthusiasts and fake money makers

[@sadmancho]

Loving the bike videos. I can't wait to get mine.

[@Woodrow1995]

Check out Chase on two wheels (C2W) and follow his setup on mic and Gopro. He is on point with it

[@dukeboyzpowersports]

Congrats on the bike 👍👍. Here’s a couple of tips I’ve picked up over my 16 years of riding. 1 ride like no one see you cause they probably don’t and 2 know your limits and ride with in them. Congrats again and ride safe.

[@motorbikeireland]

Big congrats.. it is a whole new experience and enjoy every minute of it!

[@benlatham5957]

Awesome vid and a large stepping stone in the journey of your Channel!!!

[@MuhammadKharismawan]

IMO motorbike is when you are not in a rush., when you want to just enjoy the ride to the destination without beings stuck in traffic. Anything else, car is safer and most less exhausting. Short trip is where bike is king. So easy to get on and off.

[@CHuzz7777]

Dude I’m chuffed for you but bit gutted that we’re about to plunge into autumn/winter. If you stick with it you’ll find riding in the poor weather teaches you a lot and you’ll be all over it come spring.

[@markchip1]

Learning to ride defensively (especially learning to predict and be precautionary) will improve your car driving more than you'd think!

[@CHuzz7777]

Mark Chippendale yep, couldn’t agree more.

[@IngramCars]

I've always wanted a bike but the need for speed has persisted with me for about 25 years, and didn't trust myself to go through with it. Watching the video and listening to your well informed reasoning for wanting to pass your bike test and ride a bike sets a great example for anyone wanting to do the same. If only I had the same mature reasoning at 28, it's taken me only until recently to share the same view.

[@lorentzinvariant7348]

Congratulations on the new bike. I have kind of switched my appreciation from 4 to 2 wheels. I was taken with the realization that, it is possible to buy a motorcycle homologated for World Superbike competition with over 200hp in the $20k range. A comparable supercar costs upward to a million dollars or more. And they both have similar technology and engineering. And the bike is much closer to its real racing counterpart than the car ever will be. A Ducati Panigale v4r is a lot closer to a real motogp bike than any production or specialty Ferrari will ever be to a real F1 car. And you can ride it on the street. And, bikes are just a lot more fun than cars.

[@bobmizen1]

Thanks for sharing that Paul. Due to health issues I have not been able to have a license for over ten years. I can honestly say I miss the ability to ride a bike (my last one being a1200 Suzuki Bandit) a lot more than driving a car. Take care. Regards, Bob M. South Wales

[@spacextom]

Need to mount the Go Pro on your chin part of helmet, will get a far better view of road ahead

[@SeaSawSi]

Nice one, glad to see guys transitioning to the biking world, it really was the best thing I did last year and just absolutely love it! You will too and will be desperate for the winter to pass and the summer riding days to arrive 👌. Enjoy 😀

[@twiddlytwiddle]

Good for you! Congratulations!

[@MuhammadKharismawan]

Nice, the audio is much better. I can actuallu listen to ehat you say now. I suggest using a second mic (maybe the one on the go pro) to add more of the bike low rumbles but on more controlled volume.

[@robertbowness2979]

Well done Paul, I had the previous model as my first bike and loved it. Enjoy.

[@ShouriSeifuku]

It's a sense of freedom. You, the wind, the road, and a nice machine between your legs.

[@pavementpizza7849]

Hi mate 👍. Im taking me CBT next month and im totally excited 😀but at the same time terrified 😱😂. . Ive just driven cars for the past 25 yrs, but now after watching ewan and charlie on long way up ive suddenly got the bike urge again. Your vid is so cool and your view on riding the bike is very sensible 👍. Ive seen several of your car vids and there gr8 .

[@abhaysinghhundal9640]

I would recommend to mount the gopro on the helmet chin as it gives a better view. In the current setup the road ahead is not much visible. Really excited about this new chapter for your channel and actually looking foward to it. Keep the good work going.

[@MikeTheBike58]

Glad to see you didn't quit and passed. Can't go wrong with a Honda I've had 3. Enjoy and welcome to the biker family.

What if you att a mic to the gopro and have it in a resess in the helmet? Like the bluetothatt that you use 4 the phone?

[@Aj-om4dt]

Very nice 1st bike.. I’ve ridden motorcycles since I was 6yrs old & learnt to drive since I could touch the pedals. I did all my practicing on Suzuki sv650 & Kawasaki en650 and found that they were fast but not enough power for me. I’m saving for a Suzuki GSXS-1000 2017 model+ I rented a Aprilia rsv4 1100 street fighter version for 48hrs & it was stupidly fast

[@mrs2741]

Leaning a bike into corners is where it’s at. I’d suggest doing motorcycle advanced course to get the basics. Honda in Aus to advanced courses, not sure in uk tho.

Love this video Paul. Lambo owner trying something different. Cudos to you.

[@ZhaosWolf]

You should get another (cheaper/older) bike to tinker with over the winter, as Honda will do the CBRs for you. It's a good way to learn some mechanical stuff and a great way to start a collection ;)

[@apoorvbajpai4763]

You should go through a track driving school. It really makes you better at riding not only on the track but also helps a lot on roads

[@stever6542]

Should have got a smaller bike first and learnt your craft.....

[@montha123]

It’s Good that u started relatively small , get used to that before you step up to the big BHP bikes , if you want better audio u better buy a shoei or Schuberth helmet they are the quietest helmets for wind noise !!

[@AUTOTVO]

Congrats!

[@Braselton21]

PERFECT BIKE :D Get an SC project slip-on exhaust & then get your bike flashed & tuned. Then get a chin-mount GoPro setup :D

[@spyburn007]

I kept trying to look up through the top of the screen. Needs a few extra angle of tilt on the helmet cam, to look forward up the road instead of down at the road. Interested to see how this chapter develops.

[@jamespostlethwaite7799]

just a quick siggestion, play around with go pro positioning on helmet, try side and chin positioning, they seem to be more representative of your POV. also on the top is a little steep and cant see that far infront of you. Great to see you get started though!

[@quran_recitation32]

you should mount your gopro upside down on your chin it will dramatically help your microphone problem and it will give a much better camera angle

[@WigwamWalsall]

Great video real interesting insight, can’t wait to pass my test but starting CBR500R ( age 65+).👍bike purchased.

hi great vid enjoy the bike, try breaking with just 2 fingers if you use your whole hand in an emergency stop you will prob lift the back wheel.

[@thenut1212]

This was great! I would suggest tilting your GoPro helmet cam up a bit. It’s kinda tough to watch when the camera is focused primarily on the ground showing mostly only the first 10 feet in front of you. Anyway, congrats and enjoy your new way of going from a-b!

Well done.. would advise on doing a track training day as quick as possible.. quite sure you would be able to get Honda to sort you out on a Ron haslam day

[@HalfdeadRider]

You most likely have the mic to close to your mouth, I actually have mine in the cheek pad. You need to tilt the Gorpro up or move it to a chin mount and play about to get the angle right. Nice choice in your first bike.
