Love hearing from other beginners!! Glad this helped!! Ride safe!

I start watching your channel yesterday , im on this episode so far, and my opinion is that this is the bike that you should continue your training the size and the power are perfect with some one with your skill level so you can start loosing the fear,keep up the great work john looks like a great teacher so keep it up guys.

Being 6 foot and riding this bike as my first bike, it’s super comfortable and I love it!!! Maybe I just don’t know what a comfortable bike is but either way I’m digging this bike a ton:) love the review, love the honesty, keep It up!

Hey Jackie congrats on your new channel. You doing an excellent job. Imma big fan of your hubby. God bless you and your family. Keep up the good work. 😎

Great video and I absolutely love my 2018 Street Rod! Took some getting use to the seating position but one I did I would not get off , it is a very fun bike to ride.

I got to say as a beginner rider you are encouraging me to ride more often. How ever I live in NY and it gets cold out here. But thanks for the encouragement

@Jackie's moto garage great job it's all learning a new bike ,but u handled it like a boss.

Thank you for your honest assessment. You went from not being sure to feeling confident and respectful of the bike. I have been wanting to ride bikes again after a 30 year absent and I think a Harley-Davidson would suit me fine around town. Good luck.

That's a great bike for you to learn on!... It's really cool to see you trying different bikes... The experience will come on fast and you'll be shipping around the neighborhood before you know it!.....

I strongly considered this bike for my first motorcycle, but ultimately decided on the Iron 883. Both are great bikes.

Jackie Im a new subbie. You are more my speed😂. I started riding with a group of ladies about 4-5 years ago. However, with classes and my work schedule I stopped. I'm looking to start back and I want a different bike than what I have. You looked awesome. I was cheering you along. Then at the end I got babymatized. Gorgeous baby😍. Your hubbie is hilarious. I found you from his vids. Enjoyed your vid so much bcz I could relate. Please keep it up. You go girl!

I've been riding for over 10 years now. I would have seriously considered the street rod 750 if it wasn't for the leg position. Keep practicing and you will get it. You will rip it up on the Triumph soon enough.

I bought the exact same bike in late '16. Your first thought in riding it is that it feels weird. Squatie-Potty riding position as you say, and a bogus clutch. I love it though and people adore the thing. Plus, you never see another one around.

Whats nice about these Street bikes is that they were designed as Trainer bikes. the 500 is what Harley does their MSF/Rider academy on. 750 and StreetRod are step ups. So this is a pretty spot on bike for a beginner who doesn't exactly want to skimp on future power and highway either. These Bike's replaced the Buell Blast, a handful of years ago, and are super durable. There was a reviewer who had a crash on this same bike at like 60mph, and the bike was barely scratched up. This is a good kinda bike to get used too, it's a bit more performance oriented than the other streets, but you're basically riding THE trainer bike series from Harley.

I own a Street Rod 750 and I like the bike, but if you’re not used to ridding , it takes a bit to control the throttle. It’s not a crotch rocket but it will go!

You killed it Jackie! That's a very odd ball bike or better yet engine from HD so it's not going to feel anything like the 883, which I personal feel is a better beginner bike. Jon knows how to ride and you def don't need a thousand people telling you what to do but my only advice is just relax, it'll all be second nature before you know it. Too much thinking and white knuckling won't do a thing for you. In fact a good way to calm down before you jump on the scoot is to do a backflip off the roof haha. Good job Jackie and tell Jon to stop stealing your camera time with his Back to the future Michael J Fox bumper riding. Stay cool mamma

@@JackiesMotoGarage Squatty Potty is a gimmick but those commercials made me realize that taking one pant leg of my pants off gives me a wider stance and it seems like everything goes better.. I don't think I will ever own a Motorcycle with forward foot rests that's just plane awkward you don't have as much control as you do with mid foot pegs.. Normally I hate HD's for their low performance poor handling poor suspension .. But the HD you were riding that has mid foot controls and better suspension taller seat height Looks pretty decent really .. but I never heard the price.. I think I will look at one at the Local HD Dealer before I buy a used Yamaha V-Vax simply because I love to Humiliate Harleys even the stage IV ones..

the photos and videos don't do justice with this bike you have to see it in person , it looks alot taller and longer you may find it small and very low in videos and photos

@@JackiesMotoGarage I just got my Motorcycle endowment two years ago at age 56 .. As a Teenager I out ran the Police 6 times on dirt bikes then got caught once when I was 16 years old on a Street legal Yamaha GT 80.. I put the GYT KIT in it and more than tripled the power with top speed gearing limited at 85 MPH.. It took 7 Cop cars and 14 Cops to catch me on a Friday evening.. Back then fleeing and eluding was only a Misdemeanor.. I don't think I even lost my License over that.. I did have to go to court however.. How times have changed.. at Age 17 I had a Yamaha RD 400 I could actually do a 1st through 3rd gear wheelie on even though I was not smart enough to cover the rear brake pedal with my Foot.. I test rode an Indian FTR-1200 .. a really fun Bike .. For now have a Yamaha FZ-07 with side cases top cases luggage rack and windscreen .. I take it on long distance camping trips.. My most recent girl friend has panic attacks just looking at a Motorcycle ..She says when she was 7 years old she was riding on the back of a bike with her father in the Yard and he crashed in the wet grass.. I got a new Z-28 Camaro when I was 18 years old .. Turns out most Fathers would not let their daughters ride on my Motorcycle .. I guess the car was safer had a decent bake seat good brakes upgraded suspension and could do 150 MPH .. that was in the days before so many Morons were texting and talking on their cell phones.. But I am in Michigan no CA where Road Rage is such a big Problem too .. I hope you will advance to 3rd and 4th gear soon ..

The best beginners bike is a dirt bike .. GEt confident get your basic good motorcycle skills before you have to deal with Morons in cars ..
