Bought my first Motorcycle! Ride home from the dealership on my 2021 Kawasaki Z650 | Beginner | POV 

according to some of the comments, he's now passed away

@@thineshpathmaraja6670 holly, in a accident?

@@Ckaionoriega according to the other comments in the other video, it sounded as though he came off a cliff on a twisty. I'm not sure though. I wish all the best of his family. and hope everyone rides safely

@@thineshpathmaraja6670 Damn that sucks

@@thineshpathmaraja6670 why tf would you buy a 650 as your first bike, starting with a 300-400 would've been much safer. Rip

Said by everyone that are from the U.S.* In the rest of the world we actually learn how to drive our bikes and cars, and it takes more than 20min to have our license lol.

@@estebanod good for you? Don’t believe anyone asked lol

@@trevorhopton7 But it's true. Here in Germany if you drive like the guy in the video, you wouldn't be close to getting your license.

@@dergreg_ still no one asked

@@tupadrastro4239 You don't need to ask me, I'm gonna say it anyways. If you have a problem turn off your device.

there is nothing wrong with that I do it all the time it smoothes out the ride.

he died sadly

@@danteaboyoun246 was it a motorcycle accident?

@@Spartansrule118 yes

@@danteaboyoun246 are you kidding or ?.?

Im 24 and im working on my driver license funny to say i have motorcycle money but no motorcycle license or driver license lmao. But hey 9 to 5 jobs is what you do. Single no kids sht lmao!

I stalled so much when I got my first street bike. I’ve been on clutch fourwheelers and dirtbikes and my life and I still stalled at every light

​@@Brandenuzis yeah, I learned you have to pull the clutch in when at a light or you'll stall lol. Took me a minute. Haven't ridden since I was 7 lol.

He should’ve towed his bike home with how bad he was as a rider. Riding on the street in traffic is suicidal if you don’t even know how to properly shift gears.

He should have towed the bike home and just gone up and down his street or something. This is madness to watch.

@Amin wait fr?

@@taviooo3995 It was reported that in a turn he went wide and off the road (maybe going too fast for his beginning/developing skills?) and fatally hit something. ☹️

The price of "freedom". That you can buy and legally ride a motorcycle only from completing msf courses is so extremely different from other countries, especially european countries where the requirements for getting a motorcycle license is very very significantly higher. In Sweden it usually takes months of practice lessons, theory tests, safety lessons, low speed maneuvering tests, high speed maneuvering tests, motorcycle safety tests etc, to get a motorcycle license while in the US, a complete beginner could legally hop on a Hayabusa after a weekend of msf. It's insane. But that's why people who first ride a motorcycle in the US, like this guy in the video, most are beginners and really aren't that good at riding at all. Because the requirements aren't that high. They have only gotten through what is needed to pass the test. This differs a lot from other countries where riders get their license several tens of hours after practicing. By the time they have gotten their license, they have already gotten decent at riding. In Europe, if you need to put your foot down while going at low speeds like 2-3 mph, you have failed the test. It's generally difficult to pass the test and get your license, but that ensures that those who are out on the road have all gone through that.

@@jmw8403Isn’t it a small world sometimes, because I actually have family in Göteborg. Is Liseburg still a lot of fun? Lol But, yes it’s comically sad how easy it is in the United States and get a temporary “provisional license” (no road test required yet) and take a Hayabusa for a fast ride. 🤦‍♂️ *big whoop that no passengers or night time riding allowed yet with provisional… and I remember reading about ten years ago, that the US has like over twenty something times the amount of single rider accidents (with no other vehicles involved) compared to the next highest country in the world. Sadly, even though it blows my mind, it’s not hard for me to believe.

@@jmw8403 what your sayings in Europe, is almost identical here in Malaysia…i started with a moped 110cc, which i stall a lot (dad’s bike)…and getting a motorcycle license, you gotta ride in the school compound for hours before the final test exam. Wrong foot drop, you failed. 110cc for years, then change to KLX150 for almost 2 years…and now almost 3 years on an MT07…watching this video, stall on the first gear multiple of times…man, i hope he gets home safe…

I would definitely have someone drive it for me, as I did. :) I drove the bike around garage under apartment building for a week to get confidence. Also my first actual street ride as overnight when traffic is almost none, and I was struggling. And the day after, I drove during the day, driving was better and I stalled "only" 5 times in a row at one intersection :D

Agreed with you man. I crashed 8 miles of owning my bike years ago. You get better in time.

@@17thMidnight I thought riding in the woods was the safe thing to do and crashed on the trail. Got thrown out of a corner. What I quickly learned was how much fun and easier riding on the street was. So I sold and got a Ducati Scrambler and the rest is history. Love it. And It’s got a low seat height so I can toss it in corners

I also crashed day one on my dual sport 😂 going to fast from asphalt to dirt

I held opinions for myself before I actually started riding but being on bikes for few weeks now (suzuki sv650 as first bike) I gotta say you really have to be a tool to ever crash by your own fault.

I drove mine to my gf's house an hour away the first night i got it. 85 rebel 250. No issue BUT i did drive stick shift cars for years so shifting is not a new concept by any means.

Did my course, bought a bike off facebook, drive it home 30km through downtown is was loads of fun and terrifying. First time I road a bike outside a parking lot

You should feel proud to be this safe. This guy died on this motorcycle only a few months after taking this first ride.

@@dougdouglass6126 Damm rip

@@dougdouglass6126really???

Wrong. It depends entirely on the bike. You have to listen to the engine. The engine noise will tell you when to shift gears.

That’s a good fundamental rule for beginners,every bike is different but I believe the idea is solid💯💯

It's all about your rpm not your mph💀

@@kenl.3298its both

That’s o.k for just beginning but other then that it’s not a solid method because bikes are so different and it’s about listening to the bike and the rpm’s that let you know when to shift.

I felt the same, feels like yesterday i was still stalling at every stop

He died bro, in a motorcycle accident

@@lonevenom no way, source?

I swear a few of my friends and cousin bought a R1 as their first bike. They are dumb they buy it because of the R1 popularity

When I purchased my first motorcycle, I got it from a dealership 30 mins from my house. It tools me 2 hours to get home. I stalled out a bunch, ran out of gas, pushed it 2 miles to the nearest gas station then continued my journey of stalling out. It was a fun experience LOL

@Going North to my knowledge he was in an accident awhile back and passed away. very sad

@@traceyhall7119 Damn

That horn honk before he goes on the main road for the first time. I was dying.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 how did this make you cry?

@@traceyhall7119 Why do you write such bullshit like this? How would you know? are you friends in the real life?

he passed sadly

I was laughing at that. Man was going 40 in 6th gear lmao

the bike was brand new and needs to be broken in if you look the gear indicator flashes telling him to shift for the break in period.

@@Triggz636 Nobody obeys the break in period. Mindful, yes. But nonetheless I definitely wasnt hating on buddy, we all started somewhere

@@MrBrOsAp69 the guy sadly passed away in a tragic accident few months back. 😔

@@mannyblackstar shit

He's dead bro.

@@apexfenix9623 yeah i know i found that out RIGHT after i commented unfortunately.. i shouldve came to edit my comment here afterwards thats mb.. i didnt know yet sorry bro. everyone gets this vid in their recommendations and then goes to see his newest vid to see how far he's coming, which is exactly what i did, and then everyone finds out that hes dead and comments about it on THAT video. seriously, a lot of people are commenting on his "newest" vid about how sad it is what happened and that they expected to see someone who got better at riding and instead found out that they didn't even make it there. 😞

hahaha first time coming home with my bike I stalled when parking because I forgot to put it on neutral, there was people watching me because I live in front of a bank and because my bike is very pretty, I remember I was so nervous I wanted to use the horn to call my mom who was inside the house, instead of pressing the horn button I pressed the ignition, knowing that wasnt the horn, instead of pressing it now I messed up again and I turned the signal hahaha so embarrassed because I knew people was staring at me, maybe they didnt know I messed up but to me it felt as if they knew I was a noob xD

@@yulitub1838 I did u-turns in the parking lot of the dealer and when I went to pull off onto the main road I stalled immediately, started back up, stalled and just rolled to the nearest entry to a gas station pathetically. was smooth after that but I know the feeling

@@leeonardodienfield402 xD

sorry to kill your confidence but he died

How was it and how far have you progressed?

I mean. This guy is dead. Take your confidence and throw it out the window.

Ride Safe bro.

This guy died

More guts than I had. I loaded my first bike in a truck and carried it home from the dealer. Stared at it for 2 days before I got up the nerve to take it out on the street. The confidence comes quickly, though.

This gave me confidence going to do the same when I get my first bike

Yes. I really appreciated this video. Thank you.

@@terpdx The dealership Im going to is located by a major road, no side roads. When I get mine its either going on my uncle's truck or my brother is riding it my place.

@@ktmmatt7243 I’m gonna do my CBT soon so I can get a 125cc bike

Thanks! That's a great tip. I'll definitely start doing that.

sound advice

Good advice, but unfortunately he's no more. He passed away in an accident last month 😢

@@melvinmathew220 I'm sorry to hear this. My condolences.

He passed away sadly :(

@@pinokio3785 wait how :(

@@ashezzz2946 I saw comments saying he had a bike crash. Check the comment section under his latest video. Its really sad, I even felt joy watching this and then this :(

I would humble yourself just a bit because this kid died recently while riding. Be safe and wear all your gear. Dress for the slide not the ride

@@pinokio3785 wow that's so sad:( I was just watching the video because of the joy it brought me but seeing this hurt...

So ture

Man that the truest shiiiiid i ever heard👊

So true I had to screen shot lmao.

Don't you get any road practice before getting your driver's license in America?? I'm so confused by this video and all the comments.

You dont need a license to buy from a dealership/facebook and such. You could get road practice, but eh. You do need a licence to ride on the road, but I seen a few people who just dirty ride it (riding illegally)

@@chessgains8075 I didn't have to get any road practice. It may be different for me since I already had my drivers license, then got a motorcycle endorsement after I took the basic riding course. I don't know the procedure for someone who has no license.

@@ktmmatt7243 damn that's crazy. It's totally different in Sweden where I live.

@@chessgains8075 Probably safer there

We all made these mistakes carry on with great safety in mind and we can just laugh about them after on :)

Stay humble though. This guy unfortunately was killed on this very bike 6 months ago. Really sad 😞

@@hisride no way

@@anirudhs299 Yeah... he took a corner too fast and fatally hit something. I was really shocked too. Hits home especially when his older videos were about family and stuff :/

@@hisride where did you find out? That’s so sad to hear if it’s true. He’s left a great legacy of inspiration for new riders with these videos nonetheless. We all make these silly mistakes when we first start and it’s nothing to be ashamed of.

He's dead now..

Sadly he died riding little over a month ago. ☹️

@@SpecterSeventy2 are you serious???

@@Winningsince95 Unfortunately yes. Supposedly he crashed going wide in a turn and hit something that ultimately proved fatal for him. It sounds very much like it happened because he entered a turn with too much speed for his still newly developing riding skills. Very sad.

@@Winningsince95 yeah rest in peace. Too soon :(

@@SpecterSeventy2 gotta be careful out there, that's what i tell all my friends getting a bike. it's no joke

@@DarkDisiple_ Sadly, he did

@@StarZReFleX wheres the source

@@ohnaw223 one of his alleged friends said so

The guy passed away not long after this video in the twisties. From time to time I end up here.. The algorithm however has boosted this video lately. Be safe ❤

❤️🙏 kind

Going to get my first bike this evening. Praise god I have a trailer to tow it home on! 😂

Dude everyone in comments sats he passed. RIP 😢

He died in a crash about 4 months after getting the bike. RIP. As a new rider, you should never get complacent, or overconfident. That's when problems can happen. Never ride above your skill level. Ride safe!

@@WRjockey Yea he was wreckless and way over the speed limit on twisties.

I think u're doing d right thing. I've been doing same, getting familiar with d bike and riding first before hitting any major roads.

@@WRjockey Absolutely!

Unfortunately that is the case with a lot of fatal motorcycle crashes they take quarters way too fast and hit a blind spot quiet never take orders fast and I've been riding since I was ten

You got this mate.

Tully passed away a few months after getting this motorcycle 😢

Buy a used dirt bike. Best way to learn unless you have someone that can take the bike to a safe location for you to learn in

I have a question, do they lend you a bike while you’re taking the classes or do you have to bring your own? I’ve been wanting to get a motorcycle license but I don’t know how to get started.

@@jaredespinosa1567 They lend you one for training. You don't need to own one. The ones they have are for training only. The easiest way to start is to go to a Harley store in your area and see if they offer training :)

But the truth that breaks your heart is that he passed away in an accident

@@distorteduzi some comments are saying he was on some twisties and rode off the cliff, really sad.

Does anyone have the source saying that he did die?

You really need to change your name dude.

@@Cent51 I've been here longer my young Jake friend

Totally get that! After my MSF course I bought a Scooter and had the dealer deliver it home for me 😂 Riding the scooter on the street for the last couple months gave me enough confidence on a bike to make the journey home from the dealership. Ride safe!

Ooooh now I see, I was like this dude has fn guts lol. Good job i had mine delivered cuz I drove myself to go get it and it was like 60 miles away in l.a traffic , I said nah I'm not putting myself thru that lol

@@tullyrankin haha I pretty much followed the same path! Had a Honda Metropolitan for a couple years before I upgraded to my first ‘real’ motorcycle today! Had the exact same experience as you lmao

@@maiboi92 He passed away a few months back sadly😢

Same here, been riding since i was 4. But even then the jump to the road a couple months ago was really scary, albeit it was on a sketchy 125 that has a hard time above 30. Dude has some balls to hop on the road like this. You can almost feel the nerves and excitement in the video, the way he comes off the bars when he puts it in neutral. You can just tell how he's feeling.

The person that posted this video sadly has passed away... Check his latest video and the comments. Im sorry i have to tell you this...

Bruh at 5?

@@oryx070 he didn't

People are saying that he passed away. So ride safe isn't probbaly a thing anymore.

@@matiasvarsanpaa6019 ye nothing about this is safe if you are allowed to drive on the roads with this little experience.

@@chessgains8075 He tried to go fast with less experience and crashed. Less experience and taking it slow won't kill you.

Normally I’d never scrutinize spelling on a RU-vid comment but “rest in piece” seems a bit much considered he died in a motorcycle accident. At least it wasn’t plural I guess lol . In all seriousness though RIP my man, so unfortunate.

"The mix of excitement and fear is unforgettable." This comment nails it lol also a first time rider

It looks like OP died in a motorbike accident meanwhile... Maybe we should take that as a warning and never think, driving is too easy. Having respect of it and drive safely.
