[@HeroRR]

I want you all to understand that I have a CBR600RR, I've put more miles on super sports than I have on any other type of motorcycle. I have, and always will have a certain love for those rockets. But I must admit that with my experience of multiple close calls, and issues with law enforcement I have to admit that it's no longer worth it. Not saying I'm getting rid of my super sport, cause I'm not. I'm just trying to show you guys that there is more to riding than going 150 MPH and dragging knee. We can go out and have a really fun time without putting ourselves and others at risk.

[@TougeKiller]

I agree that there's definitely more to riding than doing excessive speeds. I have a 07 1000RR, but I ride it due to the benefits of stress relief, it's aesthetics, and dream to take it to the track one day. I've rode with people who were at 110% all the time it was too much for me. Too many variables on the street that can set you up for a real fucked up day, especially those tar slicks.

I think it must be that people expect a motorbike itself to attract women, which is silly. But... it will 100% get you noticed, by men or women, like a foot in the door, a conversation starter. You still have to do the rest yourself. If you attract more men you are just more comfortable with men and/or dont have a women-rich social scene, or just have a repulsive personality

When I'm on a literbike, I feel like superman. It's the closest thing I'll ever have to a fighter jet. It's better than any sex I've ever had, or drug I've ever done. When I rip through the gears, and hit 2 bucks at 3am on a lonely highway, I still feel pure joy, and I'm never gonna stop. I'd rather die with my boots on, than be a 90-year old boring pussy.

I remember the day the day I got my first motorcycle. It was a beautiful Suzuki SV650 from 1998. The bike had only one owner that loved this bike so much but he needed to sell it because he already had enough bikes and he didn't ride it for months. He explained me the whole history of this motorcycle. I never seen someone so passionate about a bike like this guy. He put the most expensive tires and brakes on it,he repainted it,restored it's seats,he made a custom dash for it and did a ton of other upgrades for this old bike. He told me that he will sell it to me only if I will take great care of this bike and If I can meet with him from time to time to ride it. I promised him that and I kept my promise. I sent him messages every week or two about the bike and how it handles like a dream. After about two months he told me that he misses his SV and he would give me his Ninja 650 for it. He offered me a bike that was much more expensive than this old SV because it meant so much to him. I refused him like an idiot that I am but I told him that if he wants to ride it,he can always come to my place. He visited me every weekend and took the SV for a short ride around the city. I rode his Ninja 650 along side him and I was wondering why would he want that old SV back ? His current bike had all this technology on it and it was so much better than an old carburetted motorcycle. Then,I had my first crash. Some idiot turned left in front of me and the next thing I remember was me flying in the air and hitting the hard pavement. I was feeling like I was no longer in this world. Maybe it was because of the adrenaline or the shock but I felt like in a dream for 10 seconds or so. Then the pain hit me. It was so intense. I was wearing all my gear. CE2 rated pants,boots and jacket and CE1 rated gloves. If I didn't had those, surely I would have ended up paralyzed. I got up even though the people around me told me not to. I looked at my bike and she was destroyed. My little baby that I loved so much and that I saved up two years for was laying on it's side wrecked. After I came home from the hospital,I called the previous owner. He couldn't believe what he was hearing from me. He cried on the phone like a little kid. The next day he came to my house and sit next to the wrecked bike for 3 hours. In the end I offered it to him. He took it and he still has it now. He can't fix it since the frame and the engine are destroyed. He keeps it in his shed. Every now and then I visit him and we look at the SV. She is taking her forever sleep but neither of us can bring ourselves to sell it for parts. She took great care of both of us and she deserves to rest now. RIP Suzzie 1998-2022. It was my first motorcycle and the best one that I could ever had

[@Jeff-Vader_head_of_catering]

A lot of what you said is true, but most of what you talked about are dangers on all bikes that go on the street. Sport bikes are already having trouble in sales. We don't need fearmongering of sport bikes. We need smarter and safer riders. I used to commute daily on my sportbike. I never once got pulled over on my 600RR. Why? I rode smart. I didn't do stupid things on the freeway or in high traffic. In my area, there are more cops than ever before, and it's hard to get away with anything anymore. I don't blame the cops, though. They're just doing their job. You're right about sportbikes, in that people buy them to go fast. But the same is true of any sports car, muscle car, sports sedan, or any other vehicle with far more horsepower than is needed. This isn't a bad thing, it's just an escape for people. But lets keep it real. You can have a lot of fun on sportbikes, you just have to be prepared. Always wear your gear. Always be looking for road debris. Always ride like people can't see you, and always EXPECT them to do the dumb thing at the worst possible time.

[@lang8097]

It’s a fucking gamble. All for pure adrenaline. You expect me to keep look for these things when I’m doing 200? When is the luck going to run out? You’ll regret it like me or my dead friends.

[@Jeff-Vader_head_of_catering]

@@lang8097 Clearly you don't ride, and you're just being a fearmonger. Life is a gamble, and can be dangerous. By your rationale, you'd better not leave your home, because you could get hit by a car, or get flesh-eating bacteria, or get hit by a meteor. If you're doing 200 on the freeways and streets, you are a complete and total moron. Save that stuff for the track. You can't go throughout life being scared of it, or you aren't "living", you're just surviving. Who would want to read the life story of someone who "survived life"? No one. Life isn't black or white. It doesn't have to be safe at home or dead on the freeway. You wear all of your gear, take the MSF course, ride defensively, and enjoy the ride. If YOU are incapable of riding a motorcycle without doing stupid things, that doesn't mean the rest of us are as inept as you are. Keep your stupidity to yourself.

[@user-rx2qy2tw7s]

Josh Lambert damn you put that nicely😂 my dad has been riding before I was born and is really into bikes and I’m looking into getting one because I also really enjoy them, I’ve had bikes but have never actually done street riding. Mum don’t want me to have one but I tried explaining saying you can die doing anything but you worded it really well. Dad said to expect the worse and if you want to tear about go on track.

No doubt. Maybe we should all live in fear pf the statistics, stay inside, and avoid any danger! Hell, walking on the street is dangerous.

[@KenjiMapes]

You make good points. They are all valid and articulated well. But it’s called enjoying life. We all aren’t going to stay inside, live in a bubble, and avoid all dangers. I’m from Long Island & live in Brooklyn. Most of my riding is in NY Metro area which is like being in a video game except you don’t get 3 lives. Maybe the rock climber should avoid climbing. Maybe the scuba diver should just stay in the swimming pool. Hell, riding a bicycle or even being a pedestrian in NYC can be a dangerous endeavor. Good riders can’t avoid all obstacles or anticipate when every hazard maybe rear its ugly head, but you learn when to push it and when not to. You know what really needs to happen? Better driver instruction, harder testing, tiered licensing and recertification for driver’s licenses. Getting a license is a joke in the US. When I was in Germany in the Army, I was amazed that people actually drove. In Europe many countries have different classes depending on type of vehicle-not just car vs truck but by size, etc. In NY, the drivers used to be excellent. Fast, but defensive, if you will. Now, they’re either texting, talking on the phone, or driving scared and hesitant. Give me a faster driver who’s paying attention rather than an incompetent driver who’s scared & hesitant. For example, I see tons of drivers just lallygag onto the highway on ramp at 20 mph onto the highway or parkway on Long Island and they think they’re being safe. Then they start freaking because they’re running out of ramp room, jut out into highway speed traffic, freak, swerve erratically and oversteer back onto the ramp to avoid a collision, and cause backlog on cars on the on ramp. Then they sit stationary at end trying to get on from a dead stop. It is insanity. So many drivers are oblivious, distracted, not paying attention and incompetent. So many people are in these plush and quiet cabins that give you inkling that youre in a 4K LB missile, but make it like You’re sitting in a safe sound proof room with a LazyBoy. Point is, the incompetent and oblivious drivers are the biggest hazard out there and its preventable. It’s a shame oblivious and incompetent driving is almost promoted. You just gotta pick your spots and try to be safe. You can’t walk around acting scared. You do your best and try to promote better driving to others. Nothing will change until we all support better licensing and faster speeds. I actively push for this and try to enact change even though its a losing battle. Gotta start somewhere.

I am 52 and have been riding motorcycle since I was a kid. My first street bike was a VFR750 Interceptor. I just bought a brand new GSXS1000F this summer. Not a super sport, but still a fully faired sport bike. I love it just like every other bike I have had. There is nothing like riding it. I live for it.

[@HydraulicPressChannel]

One biggest problem with liter bikes it the fact that when you get used to driving one all other bikes feel like they are heavy, slow and somehow broken. The 1000cc sportbike is just so good at everything except comfort. And they are also quite bad choose also for the track since they are so demanding there or at least the older models I am not sure if the electronics help now days. When I used to ride 2004 zx-10r I had to ride at the track almost every week to keep my touch on riding. Take a 3 week break and you need half a day before you can use all the power. Also the tire expenses are quite large compared to 600cc when you are going fast, you can destroy the rear tire in couple of sets if you have bad suspension setup or just drive like an maniac. But if you have the time and money to visit race track every week it's absolutely best thing that you can do with motorcycle. nothing isn't so fun than having wheel spin at 3rd gear and trying to keep the front wheel down at 100mph. Also with that amount of power you can do quite stupid things on street like 100mph burnouts :D But the 4 years with zx-10r killed my motorcycle hobby. The track driving was too time consuming and riding on the streets were just boring on any motorcycle. Maybe I should by offroad bike or something but street driving is too boring and dangerous.

[@tolga1cool]

Hydraulic Press Channel Didn't know you rode bikes. Get a dirt bike man. They are fun as hell. Doesn't even have to be to extreme. Dual sport is fine as well. You can still do hooligan things without getting into brakeneck speeds. And getting muddy and ripping through the woods is good fun

It's derestricted, will do a genuine 82mph, light, reliable, comfy and you can even go off road. The GSX-R is great, don't get me wrong, but it's a one trick pony. Fast sweeping a roads and race tracks are just amazing. Motorways, town riding, small country lanes, heavy traffic, are all a pain. The note from the Scorpion end can is addictive mind ;-)

Dead accurate. I was in denial of this for a long time because I loved them so much, had a VERY near death accident. Picked up dirtbiking, won’t ever look back. I love super sports, but there’s simply no practicality for them off the race track, and dirt is way more fun without the risk of imminent death or revocation of license.

[@bassoumsamsoum]

I really feel this video describes me perfectly when I first began riding. Always pushing the limits of bravery / stupidity and the limits of my machine. I remember myself on an R6 at 280km/h for the first time and suddenly panicking at the ease of reaching that speed. And it was a rental. Even after a fall, if nothing was broken, I would go back to riding as if nothing had happened. Being young I was reckless with myself, but after a few years I realized I shouldn’t be doing anything that can devastate my family. Super sport bikes are only for those who feel they are at any moment willing to lose it all. Great video that really summarized the cons from the point of view of a rider. Kudos to the manufacturers for their engineering and tech, but I always say this about these bikes, “the machine will always outperform the capabilities of the rider”

[@Kid574]

Good analysis. But i'll leave here my point of view. I commute daily on my bike, travel when i'm on vacation, go up the mountain roads on the week-end. I have roughly 8 years of experience, 2 of which on an old ass Aprilia Red Rose 50cc 4 gears manual bike, the rest on my old Ninja 636 and just recently upgraded to a brand new 2017 R6. That being said, after the initial "transition" period from one bike to another, i managed to adapt to the new bike for commuting (i commute with a backpack to bring my work laptop, bike safety chain which is roughly 4 Kg(!), 2 disk locks, motorcycle cover for when i park it outside, a pair of shoes (i ride 100% of the time with race boots so i need a change for work) and a water proof 1 piece suit to put over my gear in case of rain. That backpack is heavy! BUT with proper precautions (mainly a good back protector that helps sustaining the weight) i never had an issue. I don't agree about the fact that commuting on a supersport motorcycle is just like banging a nail with a wrench. It's just a different kind of hammer.

Hubert, but most likely you will end up a paralyzed person having to be taken care of by others for the rest of your life, which could be decades because they will not give you a death pill even if you beg them to... Broken bones, scars from surgeries, amputations and other things may come before death. Death is easy, the rest will make your life difficult, especially for someone like yourself who believes they will die a "hero", only to end up with a bag on your hip to crap in and a tube into your stomach to be fed with... So, buy the shirt that says, "I would rather die living, than living as if I were dead." But, you may end up watching the ceiling the rest of your life on your back.

Been a 5 and a half years of a cbr600rr 08 model(07),i can only say the next few things. 1-never ever felt more secure on two wheels as when riding my rr. 2-besides track days that i never had a go,it was my everyday bike,did everything on it,never felt uncomfortable,even when riding 600kms within a day. 3-I ve done a lot of stupid things while on that bike and i dont know why,probably due to the bikes character(being nimble compact riderfriendly etc etc)i always pulled it through. I really love that bike,i kept it in perfect condition as the first day that i purchased it(i was the 3rd owner). 4-those 5 and smthing years had 30.000something kms with no problem other than the usual services of the manual. If i ever get the chance to purchase one of those in such an excellent condition as the first one i had,am gonna get it with no second thought.

I switch to a Harley Sportster for street riding & couldn't be happier, still fun in the twisties & I don't haul ass everywhere I go, just enjoy the ride now. Great vid, all your points are spot on.

I understand that these kind of bikes attract thrill seekers, so it's taking some time for my family and friends to start seeing where I'm coming from. If they had know I was a hyper-miler, then the pieces would have come-together for them; This bike is a great fit for me.

Gene Weingarten. The CBR250 (up to 400cc class) is enough bike for most pleasure riders. A commuter or 40 miles daily + on a 70mph highway may need a heftier bike for the better suspension, wider tires and better weight. However the CBR250 and Star are basically an old British scrambler built super reliable by Honda,etc.., with plastic wrap added for styling. It was good enough for millions of guys before 1980 and it still is. Ride safe man.

from my childhood. from the time of the 80s. ive been and still in love with motorcycles, specially the naked bikes. when i grew up i just wanted to buy a motorcycle. but i didnt coz of famely matters, lake of safety and danger etc etc. but when it comes to danger and beeing not safe on the streets on motorcycle. limme tell u this. couple years ago i had a bad, bad accident with my car. and guess what was my fault !? just being in wrong place in wrong time. thats it. a car hit me with over 75mph when i was stopped at the traffic light. only 25" was the distance between my head and the damage on my car. i had some head and nick injuries that day. i could be dead that day. thank god am fully recovered. after that day i realized. no matter how careful u are. how skilled u r. things will happen in blink of an eye. and the sad thing is u can do nothing about it. after that i told my self, if things will happen by it self and i can do nothing about it. why should keep my self away from something i want so bad? i only have one life to live. am gonna buy a motorcycle. and i did last year. bought ducati monster 821. never been happier. even if i didnt ride the whole year, coz of our hot summer (i live in Kuwait, middle east). looking at bike make me feel calm. riding my bike for 10 mins in the nighberhood make my brain go in recovery/reset mode. specially after hard and tough day. still, im always on full gear. never drag my knees on the ground. never been above speed averege on the streets. ride safe.

Great video, you really hit all the points. I made a mistake and bought an R6 ONLY because it looked awesome, even though many people told me not to buy it - I was younger and thought I knew it all and ignored everyone. It was the least comfortable bike ever, extremely expensive to insure and consumed a lot of gas. I was also getting pulled over because I was dumb enough to speed etc. I eventually was hit by a left turner (surprise motherf*cker! lol) and bike was totaled. I was lucky i made it out alive and well and will unlikely to ever buy another super sport bike. Right now i ride Honda Grom and its the most fun bike i''ve ever owned!

[@Into_The_Mystery_13]

I started on (on the street) on sportbikes and found all the things you listed here to be true. So I went for a Wr250r dual sport. Then I found I very rarely go off road, and when I did it made a heavy slow dirt bike with bad suspension. It sucked on the highway and wasn’t great in the twisted either (suspension). But I could wind it out and felt like I was going faster than I was so it was more fun than my sportbikes. More comfortable too. Now I have an mt-07 and I can blast gears without going over 100 mph, hit the twisties at safe speeds and feel confident, and commute without cops staring at me everywhere I go. It’s just fast enough to be fun, but not so fast that I can get in trouble. The handling is much more forgiving than a sportbike and it has abs. I’ll eventually get a cheap dirt bike to have fun with off road, and if I ever have enough money to hit the track more than a couple times I year I’ll get a sportbike for that. Middle weight naked bikes are the answer for me for the street

[@jeodee]

Enjoyed the video, thank you for uploading. Over the course of my life, I have owned nine bikes, eight of which were super sport. I was never comfortable riding with protective gear except for my helmet because it made me feel constructive. Had two accidents, both my fault and then decided I was just getting to old for such speed so I finally opted for a cruiser. Lost two friends due to speed and showboating. I finally sold off my cruiser since driving in NYC is extremely risky. When I retire, I’ll move and consider another bike but it will probably be another cruiser. I always disliked riding with someone on the back, usually a girlfriend because the always fought the movement of the bike, such as not leaning into a curve. Also want ti mention that my back never bothered me but I can’t tell you how many times my hands went numb from leaning forward.

I got my first sport bike when I was 17 back in 1985 and have been riding them ever since (I'm 50 now). Its all about riding within your skill set on your bike, getting a bike that is not beyond what you can safely ride/handle and fully using your brain when you ride. I ride for myself not for "girls" or anyone else, I ride for the enjoyment and peace of it all and not the speed or crazy stunts either. I will add that where you live and ride means a lot as well, I live in Albuquerque, a city that is truly dangerous for bikes in general and as long as I live here I honestly won't ride often here. I currently am restoring a 1996 Honda CBR1000F back to mint stock and I cant wait to get her back on the road again and ride!

[@MakTheSank]

ninja250r (also cbr300r) is a more suited beginner bike in terms of performance. The ninja 300 and yamaha r3 are very good (as well as the naked versions z300 and MT-03 ), and if you wanna go all in, go for the cbr500r or the cb500f. Most horsepower, heavier weights, but they feel like big bikes without scaring the shit out of you. Your choice, whatever you do always remember to wear gear, and to not overestimate your skils. I did that, broken knee 1 year ago, still hurts. WR250 , DRZ400 also good bikes if you are interested in a little offroad. But be carefull , no ABS can lock your front wheel.

I was going uphill behind 2 suvs, and it went from a single lane to two, being that I was running late, I got over into the 2nd lane as soon as it was available, well as soon as I got over there was a lane full of cones, loose gravel, and a work truck hidden behind a retaining wall around the corner. I was going 45, slammed on both breaks, the rear slid back and forth, then the handlebars went nuts, and I went over the handlebars, landed on my hip/side, and skid across into the oncoming traffic lane on my back (THANK GOD I HAD MY BACKPACK ON.) I was laying there for a minute grabbing my foot and just rolling around in pain, and luckily the workers were right there and came running to me, otherwise a car could have came and wouldn't have seen me at all because it was right before the peak of the hill for them. I ended up with a broken foot, road rash, a bruised hip, and the doctors have been telling me how crazy lucky I am. I'm 19 so I still live with my mom and she was already scared as hell about me riding in the first place, So now she never wants me on a bike again.

The number one reason that people crash is not Conners, it's people who think they know how to ride a bike and just because they are on a sport bike they they believe that they are at the TT. I ride a R1. I respect the Bike and understand that the street is not a track. You want to ride the bike to. It's limits take a racing class go to a track and wear all the safety gear required. I will ride my bike at the track as fast as I can and when I have crashed I have always made it out fine. If you are scare of riding a sport bike on the street you shouldn't ride at all. A 800lb Harley at 65 mph will kill you just as fast. It's never the Bike. Is always the rider.

[@elgar6743]

lee vargas - right you are! Just as you said, "It's never the Bike. Is always the rider."

[@iiroperkele3330]

Yeah of course the bike itself wont just go out and buy a gun and kill you but it's just that different kind of bikes tend to make their riders ride in a specific way. With a supersport you're more likely to want to test it's limits and go crazy fast on highways and around corners but in a harley you're usually more likely just to enjoy the smooth ride and nice engine even on low rpm and speed. Obviously this doesnt mean everyone will ride their bikes like in the example i just said but a lot of people will. And those people are way more likely to crash on a supersport than on a harley. But that is just my opinion of things and even after that i like sport bikes way more aswell but like you said too you gotta know your limits and the fact that crashes can occur for different reasons than your own mistake.

[@HeroRR]

+iiroperkele I agree. I never wanted to speed or do any crazy things. In fact I babied my 600 for about 6 months before doing the high speed runs and fast corners. They're awesome bikes and safe if you ride slow. But there's no way in hell you can ride one slow for long. And that's when they get you.

[@iiroperkele3330]

Yeah you have to have a hell of a self-discipline to never speed or test your or your bike's limits if you have a sportbike which offers way more power than you could ever need on casual street riding.

[@marklim6452]

I commute with my Ninja 250r... sniff sniff.

[@sleepingonyaboy4267]

Mark Lim I got a 650 because I knew anything smaller would suck for me anyway. It’s not a real speedster but it is a fantastic commuter

[@brandongray4128]

Dude I dont mind the pain. Ive got for 6-7 hours rides all around my state on my 09 r6 and by the end only my ass hurt from the seat. I just have so much fun with my buddies in the twisties all day the pain doesnt faze me.

[@itsajoke2790]

And the moral of the story is get a Honda grom or Kawasaki z125 lol

[@garybromley4706]

Here in the UK the Police are sympathetic to bikers. Ive been stopped 3 times for riding to fast. It was a friendly chat to get me to slow down, to save my life, they were right. This may not be everyones point of view.

[@saraw6446]

Absolutely agree, in Croatia too, and since I lived in UK, my experience is just as you say

[@joshsalzman6720]

I ride hard with my 750 shadows round twisties and my lips are alot louder than a sporty I know I use to own two

[@weaklinkoperator]

Josh Salzman I fucking love my 750 shadow. Wouldn’t trade it for anything.

[@tauseefhassan7796]

My second bike was a ZX-11. Rode it for one season, one ticket, and went back to ‘thrashing’ my fast-enough supermagna. Yes, I rode a crappy handling bike by choice so I’d never be tempted to reach any limits.

[@Nattyridez]

whats with you and saying "uncomfortable "ten times in the video.. I can ride my r6 for 5 hours straight and im fine. relax maybe youre just old . get a harley

[@shuganips3135]

It varies from person to person but I think he is just tryna get the point across that sport bikes are less comfortable that cruisers

[@Nattyridez]

@@shuganips3135 anyone with common sense would know that, he didn't even mention adjustable rear sets... You can use them to adjust your feet positioning to get a better, comfortable grip as you ride. Oh well some people just arnt ment for the sportbike life

[@wms1650]

@@Nattyridez So you ride 5 hours and feel fine. Just a touch of hyperbole Sam. Sam......the difference between what you say and believe and what is real is a mistake. The difference between what you say and what you believe is a lie.

[@Dylann8245]

lol to people who get bikes for the women.

[@phillipmorris5680]

i went thru the motorcycle phase and loved it , met and rode the girls , got road rashed and broke bones and lived to tell the tale , i tell newbies it aint "if" but "when" you crash it will probably be ur own fault e.g. going too fast , showing off , not keeping your head on a swivel , proper riding/sliding gear , and/or drugs , but still i wouldnt have missed it for the world ;-)

[@alexxela754]

Interesting how chat talk about to “die” on a motorcycle. But forget about the risk to live 40 last years in a wheelchair...

...put 60,000 miles on an '84 Honda Mini-ceptor...went thru one engine, even had the 2nd. one rebuilt. Went over 100 mph everyday for 6 years. Did stoppies at red lights in Toronto, before people knew what a stoppie was....great fun...never buy another, my luck and 9 Lives have run out...

[@jettsetter7]

Black 2003 Honda CBR600RR Is THE cleanest looking super sport. Better than any of the newer models.

What's the name of the song at the end? I know it's a remix of Sick Muse but I can't find it. (It's not Imij's remix but it's close)

It's more fun to ride a slow bike fast than to ride a fast bike slow, but the most fun is riding a fast bike fast.

[@ludvighupelarsson503]

Dude. You changed my life. Im still gonna ride my bike. But with 120% more respect. Thank you

All ur points were wack, live your life the fast way zoom zoom zoom 🍻🌞🏍🚀

I was always taught the #1 reason for a motorcycle accident was rider error. Secondly was intersections. All are important to understand. Ride to your limits

[@usernamemykel]

What's the difference between a "sports" and "supersport" bike?

[@bigsoup6240]

Just different terms for the same thing.

[@cumbis123]

Commuting on a sport bike is nothing like banging in a nail with a wrench...it's more like using a nail gun. Also, my super sport costs me $75/year to insure.
