Watch This Before You Buy a Motorcycle

[@Stexmo]

You need to get a partnership going with a riding school near you, these are the videos people need to see before they make a decision on buying a motorcycle/learning to ride.

Spunky you’re so right about the extra cash. I worked all the overtime I could get my hands on to get my moto. I had my out of state bike delivered to me and price didn’t remain the same as predicted. Your video is dead on point. I got a ZX10R a month back and my plan is start riding alone by next summer after taking a riders coarse. I’m doing the coarse twice. First time using a provided bike and once I pass the class, then request to take my ZX10R through it with Instructor. I’m not riding with anybody for the longest time. I want some alone time for my bike to tell me all about super bikes. My bike 🏍 has a straight pipe so they hear me coming, once I’m comfortable with traffic. There’s places here my bike will never travel because dangerous drivers enjoy blowing through red lights. Thanks for the instruction Spunk Dawg.

Ya it definitely adds up real quick and that’s smart to ride solo for a bit and get the feel for the bike. I actually ride solo a lot I only like to ride with people I trust..gets stupid real quick on those sport bikes haha glad everything is working out well for you and thanks for watching!

[@tkurban]

damn bro a 10r for ur first bike? thats fking crazy for a beginner. It took me 2 years on my svart 701 to feel the need to upgrade to my current liter bike. I am a solo rider as well but let me tell you, its hella easy to get carried away with the throttle and start feeling confident. Just ride safe bro and take it easy.

[@kharri2476]

@@tkurban I’m just a beginner as in owning my first bike, not riding a bike. I rode friends and families bikes as a kid. Pops had a Harley Sportster in early 70s he had to kickstart to turn the motor over. Then he bought that 1978 Kawasaki 1000LTD brand new, first time I laid eyes on a bike with an electric start button. My sixth grade year in Elementary school I was steering, braking and gear shifting that 1000, but because of my short youngster legs, he was acting as passenger holding on to my back and planting his feet for me at stop signs and traffic lights. Those Dad-Son lessons prepared me for my first car, a used 1980 Chevy 5-speed manual transmission. No training needed. My youngster bike days riding as a kid put me in the driver seat my 18th birthday driving my stick shift from car lot, down highways to the campus grounds of my freshman year of college. Out of my seven uncles and four aunts, five of the fellas had bikes. My first cousins owned dirt bikes and my big brother in his twenties owned two street bikes over the years. Because of his hectic work schedule I never rode his Cow1000 but he did let me take his new Harley soft tail out for a long spin. After looking back over the years, I’ve decided to get legal and apply for motorcycle license and get a bike that really looks like me. There’s lots of bikes I pay no mind. But brother let me tell you, these track bikes have the look I love. And I always have. Never thought much of the grandpa bikes with a built on high chair riding some big fat wife or girlfriend on the back with music blasting. That just ain’t me, nah-uh. My friend I respect bikes and riders. I got nothing to prove to nobody. No wheelies or lane splitting for this ole boy. It cost too much in health and bike parts to fill an ego trip. Thanks for your advise and will do Bro. Peace ☮️

@@kharri2476 I thought the 10r was your first bike and scared me for a second but glad to hear that you have years of experience being on one. I currently own a 22 R1, I do agree that modern liter bike looks good. I currently daily my R1 but I signed up to a track school next year and hopefully next year I can also start attending or doing track days. Right now, I am currently saving to get another bike but maybe this time it will be an adventure bike. My friends are asking me why I want an adventure bike when I am only 24 years old and the answer I always gave them is that I just love how it looks and I just want to be on one hahaha. Ride safe fellow rider and enjoy your new bike.

[@E3litecompany]

I bought my helmet and gloves first. Then bought my bike 6 months later and jacket about 3 weeks later

[@SpunkyBoyy]

That’s the smart way of doing it👌🏻 stay safe out there and thanks for watching

[@misterjwestcoast]

😂”they also need to be attractive”😂 True.

[@squee05]

that whole ending rant got a little off topic 😂😂

[@asyinsanity8862]

Ending had my laughing hard xD Nice video, New rider here myself. Started this summer with my uncle and we both collectively tried a plethora of bikes ranging from (HondaCBR125->Ninja250->GS500F->ZX-9R->GSXR750->CBRF4i and now I myself am looking to get a Ninja 400 and my Uncle has chosen to ride a Custom Harley. these bikes at the 100bhp range and up are just absolutely bat$#@! crazy for street and city usage.

[@SpunkyBoyy]

Haha glad you enjoyed it and a ninja 400 is a great beginners bike, one of my friends got that as his first bike. Stay safe out there🤘🏻

[@Ride-with-me98]

My first bike was a Yamaha MT 07 and I honestly think that was my best purchase because I wasn’t going to outgrow the bike in a few months.

[@colincampbell8312]

Great content man.Been watching your videos for a little while now and it's good to see it growing.I'm the old guy that pulled up on you in the white Nissan van the other day.Will be getting a bike soon and i live pretty close maybe i;ll see you on the road.Ride safe.

[@SpunkyBoyy]

Thanks! Nice meeting you and good luck with the bike! I’m sure I’ll see you out there at some point

[@micahnuckols5046]

Don't drive fast or reckless in areas you are not familiar with and practice predicting traffic patterns. When you do drive fast be ready to slow down when you see someone. It's courteous and respectful of the area. People will be less likely to report your activity if they know you are just out to have fun.

[@ChriisInsane]

You are awesome im learning more about bikes from you than every other videos out there combined. Very knowledgeable and noble. Thank you and stay safe brother!

[@HustlasParadise]

I'm about to take be msf course in June. I've always wanted to ride motorcycles since I was a kid. My family members had bikes. I also had a cousin that had mini bikes. I never got to ride them. But I am finally going to get one by the end of 2024. I'm not looking to be speed racer or go to any tracks. I just want a motorcycle I won't grow out of. I've had my regular class C license for 10 years and I just got my class A few months ago. Out of all these years I've never been in an accident or gotten anything on my license like a ticket or DUI (but ofc bc I don't drink and drive). I've got a clean record. So thing is sat on quite a few bikes and I really want a Kawasaki Z series bike. I loved how I could flat foot the Z500. I felt ok on the Z650 but most confident on the Z500. Thing is now I really want the Z900 but I haven't sat on it yet and I would want to get it lowered to feel most confident since it's heavier than the other 2. I don't plan on riding other motorcycles so me getting the bike lowered and suspension set to me will not bother me at all. I'm not looking to get 10 other motorcycles, only 1. I've started watching videos of beginners buying the Z900 or vids of noobs buying 650cc and up. Anyone want to give there thoughts, advice or opinions?

[@emirsaracevic]

2011+ gsxr750 or 2013+ zx6r...which one is better in your opinion

[@noahgoodman1237]

you provide so much good information, idk how you only have less than 10k subs

[@gavinross7003]

Saw some BMTH in the video. Great music choice! 😁

[@AlchemyOfTheFourthKind]

But I'm thinking about getting a bike before winter. I planned on holding onto the bike through the winter and learning the mechanical of the bike. Once winter is over I planned on getting my endorsement and than learning to drive it after I know every part on the bike. Good idea?

[@christopherdanjou]

Spunky. I’m a new rider and am seriously considering the cfmotto 450. What are your honest thoughts?

[@VODEnjoyer]

Dont forget if ur buying used that title transfer fee can a kick in the nuts too!

[@Azrael600rr]

4:20 god damn they spraying ya town crazy, god damn i aint ever see 3 trails next to each other like that. yeah i think there is bigger things to worry about now

[@ItsJoeeki]

Hey Spunky, so am planning on getting a Yamaha yzf r6, as you been mentioning on the videos, its better to start of with your license set up but I really don’t have a buddy willing to let me use their bike and I don’t know any msf course nearby. What should i do?

[@tkurban]

You are right about having extra money lol. Didin't think id spend more money on parts and matching gears but here I am about to purchase parts off revzilla lol

[@yelliebellie1663]

Question how tall are you? I’m 6”0 230lbs what would be good size ?

[@curbkreature7488]

He said I went to the BAR but ion drink 🍺 , don’t drink and ride then cuts off to another part of the video😂 hey I don’t condone EVER drinking and riding but I’ve done it before smh

LMAO @ 8:55

[@danboyd6180]

If your watching this, hey shout out to you!!

[@FrozenSauce]

I plan on getting a Suzuki gsx600 and was planning on driving on local roads for a few months then highways. Do you think this is a good idea?

[@iamxyresic]

That’s my exact plan too, I’m thinking just take it slow and easy until I get comfortable with it

[@rowdybroomstick6394]

As Fall Season gets here back roads which are primarily made with black tar poured down then pea gravel spread out over it then rolled are literally the worst road's to be practicing on, because pea gravel has the absolute worst traction of any road surface made! Just don't! Find any asphalt road you can get on! Guy I know just messed himself and his bike up on pea gravel and that road has been there forever.

[@rowdybroomstick6394]

Cooler temps worse traction, take it easy

[@mannyvenus]

Perfect timing! Will be buying myself a cbr500r in the next 2 weeks haha

[@lifeofbizzal9914]

Great

[@xlzeus]

My first bike was a CBR500r best starter bike to learn on and can ride for a while afterwards

You won’t regret it. So nimble and fun

[@AlchemyOfTheFourthKind]

You said you didn't know. But arnt you supposed to have the newer/ worse rider up front.
