I have the same bike and I've been riding for years since my childhood. I'm very happy with it. It's fast enough.

Good to hear!

this was my thinking exactly. I didn't wanna buy a total beginners bike and then want to upgrade as soon as I'm used to it. I figure I'll grow into a more powerful bike, but, I say that as someone who trusts myself to do it safely/properly. Plus I don't want something that I have to crank the throttle just to keep up on the highway and end up wearing the engine out faster.

cheers for a review mate,from o k.outback Australia N.T

any size bike if ya not up to speed on bikes, your ĝoing to hospital if you don't focus,on all around you ,and up to speed on how to brake fast with out laying down, But above all ,like all things in life, RESPECT,RESPECT, RESPECT, GO DO A RIDING SCHOOL CORSE, AND ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS RUN YOUR OWN RACE OK,CHOW,ENJOY

That looks like a good starter Bike is not too fast and not too twitchy from what I hear

If you are a little older or have experience on dirt bikes this is a fine bike to start on. But if you're young and if you've never driven a manual transmission of any kind or do not have any concept of Motorsport at all I would not recommend going from a Toyota Corolla straight to this motorcycle lol

@@TheCoolestCourier Thanks, you are very helpful yes Im older, and all my life even now I have driven a manual transmission and I have a general idea of how a motorcycle works. To me, it seems like a beautiful-looking machine.I love the looks of it .

Yeah it is really great and the 2021 and up looks even better with the black trim and LED lights. It's definitely the most fun bike per dollar I can think of and it's not as crazy as some people say. It has a longer wheelbase than an mto7 so it only Power wheelies in first gear. The throttle has a pretty long travel so it's not something that happens on accident either. Couldn't recommend it enough

@@TheCoolestCourier I learned to ride on a grom and been riding for 2 months. You recommend for my second bike?

I started on 400 BUT it feels like it was screaming to catch-up to highway traffic. People drive far too fast for the smaller displacement.

Yeah for anyone with experience driving manual or fast cars, or dirtbikes I always suggest an sv650 or mt07 for someone's first street bike

Why doesnt yamaha make a 400 of this bike? 😌

They don't have a 400 motor they use currently for anything, they make an mto3 if that's what you're thinking. I suppose they can make an xsr 300 with that. But I think they know that the mto3 is a little underpowered even for what most people want as their first bike and I think they're going to update that platform soon, I would love to see something with 500 CC from Yamaha like Honda's Rebel 500 which by the way is what I recommend if you want something smaller than this bike

​@@TheCoolestCourierIn germany you can buy the xsr700 reduced in power for a lower class motorcycle licence and when you upgrade your licence that can be removed. Maybe thats an option? I dont know how much more manageable the power is then but that would be an option. Other yamaha MT-07 i think it was also has a rain setting that reduces the twitchiness a bit 😅😅

Yeah there's a lot of risks to be aware of and they shouldn't be forgotten just because someone has experience

Nearly everything you do in life is a calculated risk. Don't forget to do ur calculations while ur riding. And wear ur gear.
