That’s about a 120 MPH indicated for all you Americans an MPH folks. To put that in perspective a ninja 650, R7 or sv650 top out at 130. That’s prettt good for the little 451. Sounds great too, screams more than I expected.
Ppl say the ninja 500 is a good beginner bike and i’m a first time rider (barely passed the msf course which was my first time riding a motorcycle at all. I grew up riding bicycles and rode some 50cc scooter for fun in college. Am i crazy for thinking that a bike with the ability to go over 100mph is not a beginner bike? What makes it a “beginner bike”?
Hey so I just purchased a 2024 ninja 500 about 5 days ago. I'm a brand new rider never even rode a scooter. Took the MSF course 2 weekends ago. I've been having a blast on the ninja 500. It's light, very flickable in corners, and the acceleration and speed is very manageable. It's not about the top speed that makes it a good beginner bike but how manageable the speed is. The acceleration is quite tame yet fun. It's extremely forgiving and easy to control does exactly what you want and expect it to do when you need it. You just have to be smart and not ride over your limits just like with every other bike.
@@MrJamjammers I appreciate your response! I am also 5’7” and my tippy toes are on the ground while straddling the saddle, so maneuvering it in neutral is a task. Do you have that same issue? My driveway is a fairly steep incline so backing it out of the driveway seems…a bit sketchy?
I’m looking for my first bike and my options are ninja 500 bc j heard they changed the 400’to 500 and then there’s cbr500r and r3 and aprilla rs457 and ninja 650 and cbr650r and gxsr8r and Daytona 660 and r7 and rs660 I am 6 foot 4 and 210 pounds I need something that goes highways speed and passing speed too will be going 75-85 on highway probably and this will be my first bike what do you think I should get
try sitting on the bikes and go for a test ride if you can. This will probably be able to short list some of them quickly as your body will fit better on some bikes over others. You will also get to test the power to see if it is adequate or you need more. I personally will not get any of the 600cc class as a first bike because you are most like going to drop it (we have all been there). Came from a Rebel 250 and had a similar list for my second bike, ended up with the Ninja 500 which I have not regret since.
Gut für beginner :) würde mir schon die 500er anstatt die 400er holen, damit der Wiederkaufswert höher ist. Am Ende geben sich die beiden nicht wirklich was. Hast halt n richtiges Display, aber das geschmackssache. Bin sehr zufrieden mit der 500er ❤
@@atrapfare Ja finde die 500er auch auch schöner als die 400er. Bin nur am überlegen ob ich mir die 650er oder 500er holen soll. Weiß nicht ob die 650 zu viel touring ist oder ob sich die tausend euro mehr da überhaupt lohnen
its almost feels similar to the 400 but the front is thicker. That´s why it feels more like a bigger bike. If you have the choice, buy the 500, you can sell it at a higher price, because its new. In every other aspect it´s the same as 400.
both are nice, aprilla has better specs and some nice stuff like up side down fork. But the main reason for me was that the aprilla rs 457 is build in india. no tests, no experience. Kawasaki was just more reliable for me.
@@Vinay-yz3wd hehe i stepped down from fireblades and gsxr750r's to the zx25r, apart from top speed and gut acceleration,the zx25r is more fun on the road / real world 💥 (its not my only bike) cant beat a screaming 4 cylinder
DJI Action 4, no nd Filter :) for the audio the DJI Mic 2 transmitter, connected with the camera. But for the audio I would recommend you something else, not the best with this mic ❤️
I get more excitement starting my Honda lawnmower. You do know the engine won't explode if you rev it to 11,000 rpm for a few seconds. You are obviously not meant for sales work. Cheers.
@@dhess34 If that is sarcasm it ain't bad at all, but just rev the damn motor, it ain't made out of cheap stuff. It is sturdy and built to rev. Just one blast to redline is not a lot to ask.
@@amisfitpuivk for literally $1000 in a full exhaust, a flash and Dyno, my 500 will gap that 650, and I've got more HP, I still paid about $1500 less, and my insurance is $3 a month. And my top speed is over 150
For those comparing to the N300: The Ninja 300 has the same top speed but it takes significantly longer to reach that speed. It's not only about the maximum speed you can achieve, but also about how quickly you can accelerate to that speed...
Don’t forget how comfortably you get to top speed of a gear too especially when needing to pass much better I assume for this bike. I had a ninja 400 and it was awesome how much it could pass on the freeway/highway
