So did you have any knowledge on a bike or complete first time I’m looking at street bikes and idk if I should start on a 600 or go like the 250 route

[@jakegarrett8109]

@@backpackbacon8659 It depends on multiple factors. Are you an older person with lots of driving experience already (even like cars or trucks or hauling things? Its useful so its not just shellshock learning bike PLUS driving). Are you a heavier person? Are you tame enough to not try and do max speed runs for at least a year or two? Are you incredibly calm (even in emergencies, do you have at least 4 alternative paths so you don't go slamming on brakes or throttle? smooth and controlled at all times) Its also more how you drive, and what kind of power you're going to be putting down. For example, I haven't ridden bikes in a while (and even then it was a 250cc), but I hopped on a decent sized Harley (fastest one they make, 1252cc and 121 HP at 7.5k rpm and I had it revved well past that when I test drove it), it was VERY controllable and I'd say other than cost would make a good beginner bike (costs because you WILL drop your first bike, its guaranteed). So size and total power didn't matter all that much because it was so tame (traction control so no spinning tires, gently roll on the throttle but that's just experience, ABS so the brakes don't lock up though I've never used ABS before except one of my cars one time had ABS and that was it). Its like some cars, even my RX-8 with a tiny engine (about the same size as that bike had) and phenomenal handling, it will still send you spinning into a pole real quick if you just stomp on the thing and have a death wish, and its ridiculously sporty so it always eggs you on to go faster, push the limits of physics more, and redline that engine with it singing its song of the rotary engines. Its how you drive it, AND can you handle the responsibility to not drive like a maniac? But don't think I'm preaching, I drive like a maniac (even on military bases I'm drifting corners and doing donuts, and yeah, this month spun out right in front of work almost smashing into a pole, that example wasn't made up, lol!)

[@jakegarrett8109]

@@backpackbacon8659 Also if you live in Texas, go with the Ninja 400 just so you can keep up with traffic, 250cc would be dangerous. Ninja 400 is honestly probably your best pick (still over 100 mph, but not yeet into the sunset at 160+ mph). Also check out the insurance, those 600 bikes are about $450/year for minimal liability coverage (even if you have a decade of driving experience, but a 250cc is like $85... Or go with older bike because the rate drops off over time even if its new to you. These are the quotes I got for Progressive (0 traffic fines ever, and motorcycle license for 12 years).

Turned over 3000 miles on a run this evening.

[@Liberty4Ever]

A good alternative to a Harley Cruiser if you want a comfortable bike instead of a sport bike is an adventure bike. You get upright seating, generally designed for long trips, and longer suspension travel to soak up the bumps. Most have a windshield to keep wind and rain off you.

3000 Miles in one evening? An evening is maximum 6 hours, so if you didn’t stop and you filled her up with gasoline while driving, you had an average speed of 500 miles an hour or 805 kilometres an hour. Respect for you sir, all of that at age 62😂

[@jared123123]

Love the new cbr650r , looks amazing but also worked great as a first bike over last year. More than enough power to enjoy but despite the numbers unless you wide open the throttle it’s pretty docile early on in the rpms which feels like a nice safe guard for new riders to get better throttle control then even say an r7 which felt far more torquey down low in rpms. Also with aftermarket exhaust sounds amazing on the inline 4

[@jimmynestro5979]

So your saying for someone who's interested in getting a first ever motorcycle, a 2022 CBR650R would be perfect for a starter? I wanna get one Motorcycle, and one motorcycle only. One to learn on and cruise and have fun with. 650R should be a perfect pick?

[@RocketSurgeon540]

Jimmy Nestro The CBR650R is a phenomenal bike, I owned one. I really wouldn't recommend it for your first bike though. You really want to learn on something inexpensive and forgiving, there's a decent chance of it getting scuffed while you are learning. A used beginner bike is a much better choice than a $10k bike making 90hp. While the CBR650R is fairly forgiving with the throttle, it is still very powerful. My advice is to start with a bike under $5k and under 50hp. Get the better bikes later when you have the skill to handle them.

[@charliebrown5660]

@Yammie Noob excited to hear your opinion on the R7 yes I know it’s a plastic MT-07 but I think the upgraded suspension and renovations might give it an edge. Had my eye on the boring Ninja 650 for over a year and then I started working at a motorcycle dealership. Yea I had people trying to convince me of just getting an R6 and leaving it in the beginner driver mode and fortunately I know too well that mode would be switched off in an instant. I guess that’s what happens when two days after your first time putting a leg over a bike you’re handed an R1M. I think the R7 would be just the slight punch to keep me happy but not bored walking into my first bike great video and can’t wait for a review!

@@victorionut9133 actually have had the R7 for a couple months now and love it, I wanted a beginner bike and the RS660 seemed like it was starting to go over that category in to more of an intermediate bike.

But its such a fun bike , has real usable power , same with any of the 650 bikes really . I ride a R1 now and I still get back on the sv650 and it puts a smile on my face.

Sucks above 100 mph (even with upgraded suspension) but amazing for 0-100 (which I do often) and handles pretty well. It's interesting to see most of the newer motovloggers not talking about these irrelevant bikes, and I don't blame them -- but I am still in love with my vf750 and am having trouble finding an "upgrade" under 5 grand (it was $1500) Wat should I get ?

I have the baby GS, slightly heavier with the same engine, so slightly slower. I took a great 200 mile round trip ride to visit a friend a week ago. I always ride back roads. I programmed the OSMand+ navigation app to avoid highways. As I was leaving town, a Chrysler Pacifica minivan beat me off the line. Oh, the shame. Love my baby GS, though.

[@tequilasunrise9667]

@@Liberty4Ever we don't really have many Chrysler Pacificas where I live so I guess I don't have to worry about that lol

[@Nitrous_Busa]

Buying my first bike next month! 2008 Hayabusa!

[@samosasnmimosas2055]

No love for the G310R? I love the channel, dont get we wrong... but I felt it should have a place

[@BadKarma.-]

Still buying a RS660 as my first, so many safety features and if I truly didn't trust myself I could cut power back until I do and its gorgeous😍

[@vincentcontinelli1274]

That right was a nice interesting fact

[@princejaiswal6487]

Is z900 or monster can be Beginner bike with low power mode and electronics on ?🔥🔥 Can 390 cc guy move to a streetfighter or Panigale v4 if he is responsible enough ?

[@skeletony2812]

My ninja 650 was a perfect beginner bike. Not too much not too little.

Bruh ur almost to a million

[@danytheunicorn95]

Talks abbout the svartpilen 401, proceeds to show footage from the 701 XD, btw, I´m buying the 401 and the dealer told me it tops out at 110 (180kmh) miles per hour

[@Real_MisterSir]

Also said Duke 390 does 0-60 in 4.1 but shows 4.9 on screen :>

[@MarkOrlandoConsultoria]

I live in Brazil rn and here, my very first motorcycle is a Honda CG Titan 160cc, very basic, naked like a newborn and uglier then any other thing o earth, well, it still does pretty nice wheelies and you can make it growl like a bulldog, but it doesn't go any faster than 70-mph. My will is to when I get to the U.S.A (I am an US citizen, only I've lived most of my life in Brazil) buy a GSX R600 or a ZX6R. It Might be a huge jump, but life isn't really great if you don't mess around a little bit.

[@darthkarroto2183]

Which one should I get ninja 650 or z650

[@robkewley]

3 year old 650s are great buys

[@VadimkaaAAaaAa]

The best way to choose a first bike is to try and ride or at least sit on those bikes. I started on a yamaha fz6 and I'm totally happy that i didn't get anything smaller. Come on, your bike will go as fast as you want it to go. A 600 won't kill you the moment you start it. Just be gentle with a throttle until you get comfortable with it. It is most likely an inline 4 engine that won't go fast at all until you reach 7-8k rpm.

[@brokeandtired]

Inline 4's are probably better than a thumper or a V twin....because they are gutless down low.. I had a GPZ 400 (US grey import) that was a joy to ride, because it didn't tear my arms off unless I wanted it too. Pity it died.

[@GamingReaperHD]

So I’m trying to buy my first motorcycle next month. I’m trying to decide if a 400cc bike or 650 as a starter bike. Not trying to over think it either but wanna be sure I pick the right decision. Any words of wisdom?

[@campenelloyt2967]

Get the 400

[@Mr_N0_0ne]

Honestly your maturity and age make a difference but the sub 400cc bikes you will still love and get to use all the power. The 650s are alot for beginners that why he recommends like if you are almost 30 and can be mature enough to not kill yourself on the 650 you can start on one but he mostly recommends smaller bikes to learn on cause its safer and useable power and way cheaper used/new if you buy and insurance

[@SOCMMOB]

I like the Trident the more I see it.

[@kleinbottled79]

For the Duke 390 Yammi is saying 0-60 in 4.19 seconds, but the caption says 4.9 - who is right?

[@kleinbottled79]

Well since the 401 did it in 4.15 I'm assuming the caption maker was asleep on the job.

[@codydavis4513]

I’m sure it’s 4.9...if that

[@LiamSanti]

I think it's also 4.9 as the ninja 400 is faster at around 4.5 seconds

[@Karrosh1234]

Definitely 4.9

[@Real_MisterSir]

Also talking about 401 while showing 701.. inconsistency is consistent with this one ^^

[@BINX-RR]

How do they measure torque outside of the US? Meter Kilos or what?

[@neilmendoza5264]

If it was available in the U.S., the ZX-25R would probably make it to this list 😅

[@oseh438]

I’m more of a kawi Z400 boo maself... baring in mind I live in the UK so will have to wait till I’m 19 😔

[@micoferdinand]

💯💯💯

[@worldhello1234]

Don't forget the Triumph Street Triple and the Aprilia RS660. The later tops out at 230 kph and its 95 horses are enough for a beginner rider, not twix. ;)

[@manosde]

you guys really need to add KILOGRAMS AND KILOMETRES to the metrics ... that is if you take your chanel serious

[@almostrox7270]

Sorry Americans dont give a f about that euro gobbily goop!!!!!

[@skylinesquid]

Go eat biscuits and hide on your bonnet

[@rollakid]

It's fine mate. Anyone who uses the metric system has good enough braincells to convert the units on the fly, at least roughly.

[@maksavgustin3370]

I'm currently thinking about buying a Yamaha r7 as my first bike, a2 restricted...

[@meddis4647]

Or you can get something like duke 790 L, costs around 8k depending on milage it can go around 7k, you get great sounding bike enough ponys, bunch of electronics, you can derestrict it later for full 100bhp and have fun, also cruise control is expensive optional but you can have it

[@meddis4647]
