Normally I wouldn’t recommend a 600CC Supersport to anyone, but it must be said, that not all 600 supersports are the same. I started my riding career on a 2015 CBR500R. Great bike, totally easy to ride and handle, and enough power to ride in any condition and not be bored. Literally 5 months after lots of real world practice, I decided to buy a 2009 CBR600RR, which folks had always warned me not to get. Lo and behold, I realized, that the CBR600RR in particular is a stupid easy and forgiving bike to ride. There is very little power below about 8K and it’s all so linear, so an accidental throttle application won’t kill you. At about ~410lbs curb weight, the bike is easy to manage and cheap / reliable enough to fix if you drop it. Basically, you CAN start off on a 600CC supersport if you are mature, have self-control and put in effort to hone your skills. I have the same opinion about older Yamaha R6s, which didn’t make ANY power until like 10K RPM, which means you could just stay out the powerband and easily and keep yourself alive. Again, it’s not a recommendation, but I wish people didn’t scare me so much online into buying a “starter bike,” when I could’ve just as easily learned on a CBR600RR. However, If you have no self-control over your ego and actions, don’t ride a sportbike period.

I started on a 2015 cbr500r for my first street bike also! Well...I'm still on it. I've had it abput 3 weeks now, put over 1k on, &am already bored with it. It's a great bike, don't get me wrong, got it with 2106 miles on it. But I've already out grown it. Maybe if I started with a decent 650 I would still be satisfied with it. But now I'm looking at 600s, along with 650s now. I've just started seriously looking, &talked to the place where I bought the cbr from&one guy says go for the ninja 636, the other says either the ninja 650, or the z650. So I'm going to try them out&see if the 650 seems like I can get at least another year from, or if the 600 will be better for me.

You think thats bad. In Portugal we have a 50cc license at 14 yeras old, a 125cc license(with 11KW limit) at 16 years old, a 35kw license with no displacement limit at 18 years old and if we have either the 125cc or 35 KW license we are lucky enough to be able to take the full exam at the age of 21, if not we can only have the full license at the age of 24. I have a 125 cc license for almost 6 month, have already put more that 7K km on my bike(virago 125) and I can say that after driving the 535 version it feels that the 125 is too slow. In my opinion the 125 license should be replaced with the 35KW one. This sucks....

Picking the 600 is a commitment. If you go into it knowing you're sacrificing comfort, utility, and storage space while also having to contend with a quirky powerband, you'll have a good time. If you buy a 600 just because it looks and sounds cool while not having a passion for it's quirk, you'll probably hate it.

I went the non-traditional route and got a 0cc bike as my first. I ride a Zero SR and it's been a pretty accommodating first bike with no clutch or gear shifting, but it really makes you respect throttle control because if you're too heavy on the throttle in a corner all that torque can easily break that rear wheel loose. Still though, it's a little tame. Should've started with a hayabusa.

I'm an old fart but I have ridden an R1. Yeah, fun for a short time. I still have a couple thumpers (kick start only) a couple of cruisers (one a full dresser) and an R3. Believe it or not the thumpers are the ones I enjoy the most. That being said I believe that for some a 600cc bike as a starter is fine. For others it's a death sentence. People are different. Some are confident and aggressive others need time to work up and still some others should not get closer than a hundred feet to any kind of bike.

TBH this felt more like a sport bike vs other bikes debate. After all all 300cc Sport bikes are in reality more like naked bikes with fairings (except for that aggressive RC 390). And real sport bikes are just well, shitty for the street, beginner or not. Would have been more interested in a 300cc vs 600cc naked bike comparison for beginners. MT-07, SV-650, CB650R, Z650 or an R3, 390, Z400 etc.

Regarding maintenance again: a SV valve adjust was nearly as expensive as a desmodue, and if you didnt rev the snot out of it, you could push the interval out.

@CrimeEnjoyer 5 лет назад

I barely even consider power into the equation when I say beginners should stay away from 600's. Any beginner can stick to low revs and half of the super sports have rider modes these days. The touchy brakes and precise shifting are more likely to get them into trouble. Beginners grab brakes and shift sloppily, and doing either in the wrong situation on a 600 will spill you. Even with ABS and a slipper clutch. IMO people who recommend 600's to "grow into" have taken for granted just how far along they are, and they have forgotten how big a learning curve on bikes are. Add the mentioned ergonomics and heavier weight into the mix with a beginner who is extra nervous because they started with an expensive bike, and it's just a bad recipe. Starter bikes are nerve-wracking enough to start on for beginners and you'll probably be able to sell your starter bike from craigslist for the same $2000 you bought it for, so it's not like you're down anything for learning on a starter bike. And it's not like you won't have fun either; 250's/300's are super light and flickable and you get to rev the piss out of them, and you'll be more inclined to since you won't be out much if you hafta lay'erdown.

@Nightdare 5 лет назад

Yup, especially these days with advanced injection, bikes' power is smooth and controllable (Unlike my 1st Gen injection '98 750 SRAD which had the knack of trying to launch you out of a corner with just a hair more throttle, I also still hear the horror stories of older R1 riders from time to time)

I began teaching my wife to ride about a year an a half ago. I started her out on a Suzuki 300, she progressed quickly, she wanted to move up to a 600 four months after she started riding. I held her off on that making sure she had enough experience an seat time before moving up to a 600. A month ago I was finally comfortable with her stepping up and we got her a Gsx'er 600, at first it was a little much for her. So we selected a lower power setting until she got used to the weight and response of the bike. We gradually increase the power settings until now she on full power mode, she's doing great. People want to move to fast stepping up to a 600 or liter bike before they have the skills necessary to control the power. I wish I could've learned to ride like that, but I had to be Billy Badass and started on a Ninja 900 back in the 80s. The worst bike in the world to learn on, had alot of bumps, bruises and scrapes but I learned the ride.

@lunchy32579 5 лет назад

Seating position was the most important decision for me when I bought my CBR650F. She's my first, and I'm still in love with her. Power was secondary to comfort, because my thought was if I'm not comfortable, then I'm not going to learn to ride properly. Besides, a few well spent dollars, an exhaust, and power commander later, and I'm not racing R6's, but they aren't getting away that fast either.

The first bike I rode was a zx6r and I'm still alive. I grew up riding dirt bikes and quads so I thought I knew what I was doing but street bikes are vastly different. If you just stay at low rpms you will be fine since the most power is made above 8k rpms. Ride smart and safe and you can learn on a 600.

@drew9041 5 лет назад

I think the power curve of the R6 is why it's a perfect bike to learn on. Under 12k rpm it's very tame and manageable. As you gain some confidence and skill, you can simply start pushing the revs and you already have a very quick and sporty bike. Most importantly clutch timing and shifting mistakes wont throw you off the bike when you're a total noob. I thought it was great to learn on. And eventually the lack of torque makes it feel slow and when that happens there are plenty of litre machines to buy:)

My first bike was a Honda CG125 then when I passed my test for my full license I went for a classic Suzuki RG500. Two-stroke madness! I don't think 300cc and 600cc should be the only options for "First bikes" hell the bikes I got after my RG500 was the CBR954RR and the Hornet 900. It all should depend on your ability as a rider and how sensible you are. Some of my friends think I was stupid to skip the middle weight bikes altogether but I've never dropped them. My CG125 has been dropped more times than I can count however. And my friends have either written off their 600s or killed themselves on them because... Well let's be honest they were over confident and stupid.

@johannjacobs6401 3 года назад

As a 69 yr old returning rider i strongly considered a 250/300 mainly commuting speed limits here mainly 60/80 km/h but i ended up with a 2012 cbf600s in a pristine condition. at a price much cheeper than the smaller bikes, i though 76 hp is enough and an overkill, but busa man put my mind in a different perspective, always good to listen to the" clever" people out there.

@Janggo1911 5 лет назад

Long time. 100kph would be fairly average. You can get up to 160-200kph on some parts but mostly, there are just too many obstacles on the road and each can just touch you a bit and you go flying off the road at that speeds.

Slammin groove I have to say I completely agree that starting on a smaller bike and working your way up is the way, I started on the 2 cylinder 500 cbr500r, great bike, loved it, but was faster than it in about 12 months, now moved on to the CBR600RR, love it, but would not have started on it due to how I ride... fast. I am quickly getting faster than that though now and looking forward to the next upgrade. I love the aggressive position and play in the twisties more or less constantly so for me it is the obvious choice. I do believe next I'm going for the fireblade or the beamer S1000RR.

In Ireland there are different categories of bike licences. AM, A1, A2 and A. The first 3 are generally for young guys because these categories are for mopeds (AM) and low cc bikes or restricted bikes. If you are 24 years of age or older you can apply directly for the A licence which allows you to ride any bike you want but here is the thing. You have to pass your test on a bike of at least 600cc.

in this range, just pick whatever you feel physically comfortable on :) It will take a lot longer to grow out of a 500cc (Honda cb/cbr 500?), and the power is very manageable. Most instructors use 500 or 650 cc bikes to teach new riders and it's no problem at all :) Just remember that a bad rider can kill themselves on any bike if you don't pay attention to your surroundings.
