I passed a motorcycle cop some time ago. It happened to him while he drives it for a profession.. so..

I bought the XSR700 brand new this year as my first bike. I am in love with it. It is mild mannered enough to start learning on and has plenty of bike to grow into. I ended up putting an R6 throttle tube on it (along with other little tid bits) and that improved the ride for me tremendously.

Exactly, what you said when you can hop on a bike without feeling intimidated by it then you know you are growing as a rider! Kudos to you!!

Yes! Thank you so much! So happy to see improvement.

You have improved a lot from the very beginning. As a newer female rider, I really enjoy watching your progression. Keep up the awesome videos and stay safe!

I brought a '19 xsr700 about seven weeks ago as my first ever bike. In New Zealand it's a Learner Approved version so it is restricted via a throttle plate and only 655cc. It's a great bike learning to ride on it and I love its style and rideable nature. Looking forward to modding it (need a new exhaust) and riding more as soon as lockdown is over.

There’s something very likable about your videos. I think it’s your honesty and ability to laugh at yourself. Keep practicing and yes, you will LOVE riding with Jon. And others! That’s the greatest part of riding, the community. You’ll get it. And BTW you’re right...self cancelling turn signals should be standard. I had a 1986 Yamaha Radian “budget” bike at the time and it had those.

Thank you so much for the nice comment! It's scary putting yourself out there but I keep my videos as honest as I can! Counting the days until Jon is back and we can go practice together!! Ride safe!

Great thanks for sharing. I’ve just bought a new one of these here in England. I did training/test on a MT07, fantastic bike, same bike, (almost) dressed in a different attire. XSR is timeless. Linear throttle, loads of engine breaking, good first (and only) bike as long as you’ve had some training like here in UK it’s 5/6/7 sessions and two tests but other countries are different but long as you’ve been out with an experienced rider several times on a mid weight bike then this is fine. Beautiful looking bike. Well done for the review!

Great job! This just shows that a torque monster (as some say, most actually) can be ridden in a way (responsibly) that a beginner rider can start on and grow into it.

The turn signal thing will eventually become automatic, and something you won't think about. Time in the saddle takes care of it😁😁😁

I own this bike with every mod possible. I have about 6,000 miles on it in a year and I really like it. This bike really takes off around 3-6k RPMs so be careful! With more seat time you'll get more confidence.

For your right turns, just look ahead and look to your exit point then trust your body to take you there. That way you're not thinking about the turn just doing it. I had the same problem when I was riding. This will also prevent you from going way further out during your turn uncomfortably.

@@JackiesMotoGarage Thé tip I got from my instructor way back in the days, helped me out a lot. He said your head actuaaly needs to point at the wanted direction, not just looking. I also did notice it also helps to exagerate your head movement so the rest of your body will follow, certainly in the beginning. But everyone's different, just check what movement makes you most comfortable trying this. I like tilting my head a bit to the side (with full face helmet).

Keep up the great content Jackie! I'm teaching my wife to ride a motorcycle and have introduced her to your videos. It means a lot to her confidence to see another female rider growing and learning!

Where I come from we have what I think is easily one of the most stringent bike licensing experience. What you want to try is always have your right foot feathering on the rear brake when moving off. This way you can always keep the bike under control. With this technique I am always confident of hopping on any bike.

Picking up my 2016 xsr 700 tomorrow, just got my license a week ago. So excited!

I presently own a 2018 and like it very much, you will grow more comfortable with time. It is the third bike I've owned ,the first was 48 years ago. Can be a beginner bike but not nessicarily so

drove her with lowered seat an still couldn't get my feet fully on the ground. in know that is not necessary but i finally wanted a bike i will be able to relax more in city traffic so i went for the mt-03 instead. if you call the xsr700 light the mt-03 weights nothing in comparison. still enough power for the moment.

Really enjoying watching your progression, makes me think my wife may yet catch the riding bug ! If I can offer one tip on the indicators on metric bikes, you don't need to push them back to centre when turning them off. Just tap on the button in the middle and it cancels the turn signal. Safe riding !

I know you’re digging the sportster now, I really love the blinker on both grips of mine and also awesome how it’s self canceling :) Good ride ! You’ll be riding a Harley V-rod before you know it 🤪

Hello Jackie, my opinion has nothing to do with you being a girl its the same for boy's. To become a better rider faster, get a lower, lighter bike that doesn't scare you. You'll be able to use the throttle and clutch. Keep this bike for later, maybe six months or so. Good luck and be careful.

I have this bike in maroon red. Best bike ever looks cool, fast and great on gas.

The wheel base on that is only just over 55 inches so it should handle quite well. The Street Bob is just over 64 inches. 62 inches on the Vulcan 650. Learning on a lot of bikes is a good way to learn to ride. Did you ever drive a standard transmission car? I like gear indicators too.

looks like an m4 exhaust to me

I haven't driven it yet but it's the next bike I want to buy!

Great video thanks and great sounding bike. I noticed you said about being 5'5" and being able to flat foot when at a lean. I suffer from a short leg inseam, 29.5 inch, so i was wondering how comparable that is to you. I'm trying to get an idea of whether i'll be on tip toes or not. Thanks 🙂

Have you ever tried to relax on the bike? Have you ever tried not to focus on everything and just ride it? You know, free as in freedom. Just twist this damn throttle and ride it to the sunset. It's so hard to watch you struggle that much, you overthink it waaaaay to much. Feel the flow and just RIDE IT god damn ;) Also get some speed, riding a bike at 20mph sucks big time. There is everything ok with the bike, it's not "hard to shift", it's not this or that. It's just a moden, extremely easy bike to ride. It's simple xsr 700. It's all about you, nothing about the bike. Really.

@JackiesMotoGarage

4 жыл бұрын

What I left out of the video is that I came home and mentioned to Jon how the shifting felt off. He then told me that it was indeed stiff because the bike had been sitting for quite some time in the garage. My videos are real life and my experience learning. I leave them raw and don't edit out my mistakes or what shows what it really truly is to be a new rider. Also, it would be really fun if I could head out and really give the bike some gas, but I can't head out and go faster because I have been waiting to get my license. That was all put on hold during quarantine so I'm just doing what I can to practice in the meantime.

What's cool about riding (and I'm sure you experienced this as a kid hopping on a bicycle for the first time) no matter how fast you are going or what your skill level is, you can ABSOLUTELY have fun on a motorcycle. Everyone starts out slow, and everyone progresses at their own rate. I definitely don't have to be rippin' down the freeway or going mach 10 around a track to have fun.
