Funny, everyone I have met in person who rides just loves riding, loves bikes, and doesn't judge... But get onto the internet, and everyone is an expert, with their fingers ready to criticize anyone who's philosophy doesn't agree with theirs. Some of the tips people have given have been good, and I even started posting vids of me riding specifically for that purpose, to get riding tips,,, but otherwise most of the comments here are just from jerks. Most pro riders agree that a 1000cc is often too big of a bike for a lot of tracks, and 600 just as fast in the right hands. 99% of riders will NEVER take their 1000cc bike (or 600 for that matter) to the limit. And I personally think anyone trying to do that on the street is mad. So by that, 1000cc is too much bike for most people. So why do they even sell them? And sell a LOT of them? Because people are passionate about this stuff. Like the guy says, he's dreamed of owning a bike as long as he can remember, and clearly loves the R1 above any other bike, so why not get it? Coz people on the net said he should start on a 300, then 500, then 600, then do track days, then tweak the bike, then after spending 10's of thousands of dollars if he finally thinks he is now worthy of that pinacle of bikes, the 1000cc,,, THEN he can get his dream bike??? God forbid we start living in a world where we work hard towards things we are passionate about, but then just pass up on our dreams because some stranger on the net might think we aren't worthy of it. This guy is the sort of person I love meeting when out riding.. Rides for the love of riding, and rides a bike that he bought because he loves it. Not because it's the bike some random dude who has never met him expects him to buy. I started on an R3 because I had no experience of riding, loved the look of the bike, and wanted something light and low powered that wouldn't intimidate me. I'm a bit of a pussy that way and my survival instincts literally wouldn't let me look at a more powerful bike. (though I feel like i'm ready for one now) But this dude isn't me so what the f'ck do I know about what is best for him? I bet when the camera is off and he isn't 'puttering' around town trying to make a a youtube video, he's enjoying the f'k out of that bike with a grin from ear to ear. Nuff said. More of guys like him out on the road,,, less of the guys who always know what is best for someone else.

Congrats, dude. I was just like you. I wanted a sport bike for years, but never bought one. Then I woke up one morning with a fairly serious problem with one of my eyes that luckily was resolved with surgery. That episode made me realize that if there were things I wanted to do in my life, I needed to do them while I was still physically able. So...I went out and bought a brand new 2018 ZX-10R, took the MSF basic course, and never looked back. Like you, I absolutely love my bike. I clocked almost 4,000 miles last Summer and feel completely comfortable riding it. When people say you need to start on a small bike, what they mean is that THEY couldn't handle a big bike as their first. Everyone is different. If you have decent coordination, patience, and self-control, you can start on anything.

A mode w/ traction control (TRC) off is balls to the fuckin wall…B mode is 75% power (cut back via ignition timing).

I made the mistake of getting a "beginner" bike as my first motorcycle. I was 17 and it was a 2012 ninja 650. I was excited at first but i quickly grew tired of it. The seating position, the sound, the power.. This was a NEW bike and I had it for 6 months before trading it off on an '03 R1. I lost about 4k in the deal but it was the best decision I ever made. So I tell everyone who wants a bike to buy want they want, not what someone else wants you to get. Unless they are paying for it, you decide.

I'm not in the crowd that would say don't start on a liter bike due to speed...

Middleweight bikes are more than fast enough as it is. I'd much rather have a bike I can wring out the first 2-3 gears on and still stay near 80mph than a bike which will be constantly trying to wheelie and hit 100+ in second or third gear Sure, one is more fun when you can really hit it. Is it more overall fun? No. If you ask me, literbikes are just about the opposite. Babying the throttle is not fun riding

First "road bike" was a 2015 R6. One year later I was a proud owner of a 2016 R1. Do yourself a favor. If you've been riding since you were young skip the 600cc class. My first bike was a Honda XR80. If you have experience with motorcycles skip the 600 class. I know eveyone tells you to start with 600 or less but its meaningless. A 1k vs a 600 is really not a huge deal. If you respect the power of these bikes you'll be ok. Just dont be stupid and youll be fine. Liter bikes are safer. They come with more features and they give power in the lower RPM's which lets you avoid crashes. Up to you. I had a blast with my R6. They are GREAT bikes. But R1's are the end goal.
@johnnychimpo38256 жыл бұрын
In terms of being able to get around town without crashing, sure 1000s are fine for beginners. But if someones goal is to be able to handle the bike for what they are, "sport bikes" you should probably start on 600 max. But if you are cool with not getting low and not being able to fully use the acceleration in the canyons or at the track then go for the 1000!

Ok so here me out here. I'm 20 and I just completed my endorsement and my manager has offered me his 2014 r1 ( which is my dream bike) at low mileage for only $2500. It's 1000cc and while i'm one of the safest riders and i'd never do anything stupid, im wondering if it'll be too heavy and powerful to safely handle with little experience. Im 6 foot and 190lb so I can probably handle the weight. I really feel like I wont find a deal like this on my dream bike and any decent sv650 or ninja is easily over 3k in my area. So what im wondering is should I go for it, its the best deal I can find and its my dream bike. Thanks!

Starting on that r1 you will never build the skills necessary to be a great rider as it’s too easy to feel invincible. You’ll mistake the computers for your own skills. Clutch control is a start but you need to know smooth downshifting, correct hand position and throttle control, weight distribution, emergency stops. It’s a lot to take in when you start and causes extremely bad habits when you start on a machine you can’t handle. I started on a 98 blackbird and I’ll tell you that was a mistake. I’m lucky, I still have the bike and I’ve picked up two others. Riding for years now and im alive. False hopes to say “buy what you want” has shown too many fatal mishaps, I’ll have to say to anyone to start on a 600, they’re plenty fast and good to be on. Getting the big bikes is like trying to skip college. Nice vid and nice bike but be very careful and at least wear some longer sleeves and high tops. Don’t be a squid
@The_Initiated6 жыл бұрын
thanks you are right about the skills, I rode a 600 and a 250 before and its alot more to it, when im on the R1 only thing i got to worry about is not giving to much throttle. Technology makes life easier and if i picked up a older R1 with not tech i would prob wreck lol. The tech is amazing though i have link braking so i only apply rear or front brake and they both work at the same time, also abs so it wont lock front wheel you can grab the break if you had to and it wont lock on you. But i dont plan on buying a older bike from this one my next bike will prob be a 2020 R1 with same tech or even better, i understand that i wont have the skills to ride some of the older beast out there but im ok with that, its like we all have iphone x or samsung s9 and someone says you wont have the skills to call someone if you used a older phone like the land line ones with no caller id or no memory to store contacts.

@@The_Initiated Yeah, but I'd have to wait 3 years to take it, and both my parents rode street bikes. My dad has had 1 Yamaha R6, and 2 Yamaha R1's. He used to do 10 o' clock wheelies down the parkway at 150 MPH. And he had a bone stock Yamaha R1, and almost one Yamaha Day at Raceway park on the drag strip. So I guess he could teach me a lot. He might be getting another 2007 Yamaha R1 for himself. Plus, he may let me ride it :P But yeah, we have all seasons in New Jersey sooo we can't ride all the time. I'm looking forward to the nicer weather though!

Cool video. I am about to buy the 2017. Is there a big difference since the complete make over in 2015?
