Hey Yammie, long time subscriber and watcher. Have you ever considered doing a triumph T100 or street twin for the beginner bike giveaway? I’d love to see you mod one. I know it’s not up your alley but I still think it would be cool to see what you would do to it.

Anyways, I got on it immediately and learned. Have had it for about 2-3 months. Have topped it out already, 160!!! Yes, I still get scared at times. But just relax, keep your eyes OPEN, and watch out for other motorists!!!!!!! I mean that. Let me know what you got or are gonna get. Gonna start a channel of my own. From a rookie, and let people see my skills get better!! Hopefully help out others who are scared because EVERYONE I mean EVERYONE you talk to says don't do it, they are dangerous.

New rider here. At 38 and getting divorced the stress levels are above normal. My step-daughter offered to let me learn on her CBR500R and after a bunch of slow turn training, down shifting and trips around the block I was ready for my first actual ride away from home. The feeling during the ride was awesome. All thoughts about anything other then freedom, excitement and being one with the bike were gone. I can't thank her enough for my first experience. It was awesome.

The first time when I went on my motorbike and I got my first nod from other biker I literally start screaming in my helmet from happiness. You straight away becoming a part of the crew. The way that adrenaline kicks in and the freedom that you have is hard to explain, but it’s something that everyone should experience in their life. It is also interesting how attached you get to your bike and without even knowing you name it on the first day of the ride. It is definitely a life changing experience

Nice! I was looking at GSXR 600s or ZX6Rs but here in Ontairo where I live I would have payed like 600 dollars a month even with an M2 license. I started with a CBR300R and just bought a brand new 2020 Triumph Street Triple R and damn I cannot wait to pick her up. I only have like a month left in this riding season and its getting pretty cold out but I think I could get it broken in before christmas.

@ThorgalsWalhalla 3 года назад

@@LunchBXcrue wow great bike! how is the ride on the tripple x so faar!? i wonder how the feeling is when you stack up to something like this

@LunchBXcrue 3 года назад

@@ThorgalsWalhalla Its worlds apart! The cbr300r was like 25 or so HP, the Street is 115HP so its like miles apart lol. I could do the same speeds as the cbr without ever getting above 4k but once you hit 8k to 10k it just starts pulling super hard and the next thing you know your doing 140km/h in a 50 zone. I will say that it sucks ass on the highway, especially if there is any cross wind you'll get beaten up and shoved around. You have no wind protection so long distance rides on windy days aren't all that fun, but in the twisty roads and calm days its a riot. Super comfortable to sit and you have tons of power, I don't think I felt so giddy when I got on that bike in a long time. Definitely worth the money and insurance costs.

Also, not a lot of people talk about this, but engine cc =/= horsepower. My 700cc naked bike isn't as powerful as a 600cc sport bike. Different types of bikes have way different gearing, frames, weight, etc, that greatly affect its speed and handling.

@ajdegroot1980 4 года назад

Yep, and there's a massive difference between types of bikes when it comes to CC's as well. A 300cc sportbike is fine, but for cruisers one tends to look at 1000cc or over. Also, I would say that even hp's =/= hp's...well, sorta. At least equally important is the torque.

@maxlutz3674 4 года назад

@@ajdegroot1980 I think that torque and the rpm/torque curve is more important than maximum horse powers. Any power surges make a bike less controllable and more dangerous for beginners. As an experienced rider I still prefer a smooth power curve.

I'm still new to this and I love love LOVE riding. I've gotten down to thinking "OHGODDONTDIEDONTDIETHATWASWRONGSORRYSORRYSORRYOHGODDONTDIE" only the first 5-10 minutes of riding instead of the entire ride. I've gotten to riding for longer amounts of time and around more traffic. I still struggle turning onto roads, and merging lanes. I struggle looking over my shoulder for merging and for turning I just feel like I am always going UNGODLY slow. I love these videos, this is by far my favorite channel! Super excited to keep learning, riding is my favorite part of the day and all I can think of when I get home is my next ride!

4:10 still started on a 1200 and have no problems with it.... 12:00 the feeling of the first time driving alone? really cool, the feeling of going on the autobahn for the first time and going over 230km/h reaaaaallly nice. Diving down on your nakedbike while going 200+ then getting up to early and nearly dieing because of falling of from the wind, even better. no i do not recommend anyone to ride that fast even on the autobahn and dont underestimate anything.

I’ve only been riding for about 5 months. I bought Yammie’s favorite GSX250R and I had never ridden a bike before I drove it home from the dealership and I’m very glad I started out small. It taught me how to lean aggressively without feeling out of control and more importantly taught me throttle control. I just bought my “intermediate” bike, a SV650 and I can’t imagine trying to start out on something like that. Thanks for all the advice Yammie!

@king25600 Год назад

New to street riding. First ride on my bike was the most exciting ride I took. Just the feeling of the wind around you and the bike under you. There’s no other feeling like that in the world. I’ve put a little over a 1000 miles on the bike since then.

I just turned 16 and no mommy and daddy didnt buy my bikes but im also not an idiot on my r6 treating it like my 250.

For the topic on starter bikes, when I first was looking into a bike (and I'm sure many others), I didn't understand the difference between a 600 and 650. I assumed a 650 was faster because of the displacement but that's not the case now that I'm much more familiar with motorcycles. Make a video going more in depth on a 300 vs 650 vs 600. 650s are amazing starter bikes looking back because it's not a 300 that you will outgrow in two months and be upset your already having to upgrade but it's also not a race bike that you feel like your gonna kill yourself on. Explain the difference between 600s and 650s.

@dblackviper2k3 4 года назад

I think the 650 is perfect for those that want the speed but still need to learn clutch and throttle control, wheel everything really. A year and 12k miles later I'm still really enjoying the bike, I want more speed, but it's still enough to have fun

@mauroantoniocruz3807 4 года назад

Why isn't a 650 faster than a 600? What is an MT07 considered? A 700? Considering it's 689cc. I own one but know nothing about bikes, trying to learn tho! I just love to ride them... not good at it either, also learning!

@minmetax8926 4 года назад

DYN 650 are usually 2 cylinder engines and about 70 hp an 600 are 4 cylinder engines . Most of them are supersport with 130 horsepower. But its not only about power. They are complitly diferent engines

@gabeismon 4 года назад

min metax I had a honda cbr650f which had a inline 4 cylinder engine (one of, if not the only 650 with a 4 cylinder)and produced around 80~ hp but you are correct. The engines are built completely differently and produce power in a entirely different way. The engineering on it I don't know but that's why the higher displacement doesn't mean faster, just a differently built engine. They aren't made for as much power and why they are cheaper

But that wasn’t the question, and yes I have to agree, the first time you ride a bike and the first time you ride a proper bike with a clutch really are something special and you never get to experience anything like the sensation it gives you to ride a motorcycle

A little late, but here goes. I just started riding around 5 weeks ago. I rode some scooters in high school (125cc) and spent a bit of time of a friend's Aprilia RS125 (2006 model). I rode a couple of 600s as well. I am now 31 years old, and given that I've reached milestones in my life that I set out, I'm the happy owner of a 2017 BMW S1000R. Crazy for a first bike. Every single person that I've shown it to has said the same thing. And many folks tried to talk me out of getting one at all. What I felt during my first ride was a lot of power. I still laugh out loud every time I get on it. Really happy with my choice. Channels like this one and DanDan The Fireman are really helpful. Safe riding!

I got on the thing and just twisted the throttle and felt like I was 20 feet in back of the bike, and was surprised that I didn't fly off the back end!! Being an automatic, I had no idea what to expect! I went around the block very slow and couldn't wait to get home cause I was scared sh%%less! I did not touch it for 3 weeks cause I had to legalize it, and was still unnerved after my first experience. I drove it thousands of miles after that! What a fun bike/scooter. Always start on a small bike, they're fun and handle well!! 2-3-4 years later everyone always upgrades! Upgrading is the fun of the sport!!!

It’s my first motorcycle and the rush you get just from going into actual traffic for the first time not surrounded in a steel box is an absolute adrenaline rush. I crossed the street for the first time on a bike just driving to the gas station just trying to figure out the clutch and my heart was pounding out of my chest. I was shaking so bad I could barely put in my PIN number. I’m looking forward to getting it down and zipping around wherever I want to go on my little bike. I know some people think they need tons of power, but just riding around town on a little bike as a newbie is a rush. I’m sure at some point I’ll want an upgrade but as a new rider I’m freaking loving the feeling even though I don’t have massive amounts of power. Main goal is to not die, save on gas and just feel free while zipping around wherever I want to go. Your videos crack me up. I hope you keep making them. Thanks.
