My last triple digit HP bike was Buell XB12 SCG. I rode some dirt bikes as in my teens but, never owned one and last year I bought an XR150 just because it was cheap and looked fun. So far I haven't been wrong as it is more fun to ride a slow bike fast than a fast bike slow at my age, lol.

I would say included in the adv dad junior.

i had a 125cc at 16 and this weekend i'm going full ADV dad junior. i don't plan on sitting in coffee shops. i'll actually be riding.

When I was a new rider, 54 years ago in England, we were all 16 and clueless, riding a selection of worn out, mostly British, small capacity (less than 250cc) bikes. No rider training in those days, you just made your mistakes as a learner, survived if you were lucky, then took your test and were allowed to ride anything. The system here has changed since then. New riders have to start on a 125cc and work their way through a series of tests, over several years, before getting an unlimited licence. No doubt safer, but it puts a lot of people off. At nearly 70, I'm still riding, but none of the other lads I knew back then are.

He forgot about the 155lb 20 yro whose convinced he can start on a 1000 because it’s from 2001 and he’s gifted at everything he touches🙇🏽‍♂️😂

I'm a little tired of my current life and need something fresh, and I'm going to learn everything about my motorcycle from scratch. It's so much fun to see how everything is build up and what you have to take in consideration to restore an old bike.

Yammie Noob at his best! Spitting in our faces and shitting on our chests.

Early 40's beginner rider here that inherited his dad's 2016 ultra glide... It's been an interesting start. Rode a buddies ZX10R the other day and fell in love. That's the next horse in the stable. Gotta live up to the stereotype haha.

Cant wait to see which one i am once i get my bike next week

the first one is legitimately hilarious and spot on. another yammie banger

Them mini bikes are kinda slept on.....teaches you a ton about balance and most of it transfers to the big bike without having to worry about looping out and dodging a 600 lb bike. You gotta earn spreaders when youve got a whopping 3.5 hp and cant power it up

I think the beginner 600 squid is a dying breed simply because there aren't many 600's left. They are turning into the 7/800 squid.

I work with a beginner 600 squid. It's his 2nd year with an old Katana that he already crashed twice, and he wants something faster because his bike overheats when he's wide open for too long

2024 600 hundred squid starter here. Just got yesterday a Yamaha R6 2007. When i tried to brake for the first time time I stoped so hard that my balls got kicked by the bike, at first it hurt but after I couldn't help but laugh at myself. Didn't drop her not a single time though and I'm having lots of fun, getting a bike that you like (always dreamed of owning an 2006-2007 R6, they are kind of rare here in Brazil) is something that definetely changes your life, every time I wake up in the morning and see my R6 in the garage it brings me immense joy. Just go easy on the clutch and don't try to do any stupid stuff to impress people around you nor try to pretend be a MotoGP superstar and I think it is fine.

First bike 2022 MT09, great purchase.

There's a #8 too. "ADV Dad Sr." This guy may have had one or two sub 100 cc dirt bikes in the 70s and then may have had a street bike or two later on. Kids are grown.

To be fair, we have many, many curvy roads in Arizona. They are just out of the way, on the sides of mountains, often with a bit of rock fall, and looking out over valleys and washes filled with vehicles that didn’t make the turn because the terrain is too rough to haul them out. Edit: ...and the paving hasn't been refreshed since the Eisenhower administration. Very important detail, that....

My first bike was an 06 GSX-R 750 , road her for 10 years laid it down once on a slow 35 mph turn. Bought it for $4,500 in 09 an sold it for $3,750. I feel I did pretty good for buying it at 19 , Im still here.

ppl thought i was dumb to get a gsxr 750 as my squid bike. i told them i wanted something i could respect and grow on bc 250 was a toy to me (i was popin whelelies and stoppies on the moto class course), 1000 was too much (was a beginner and i knew my place), and i knew i would get bored of a 600 fast. so after i got eally comfortable i was out ripppin it with the best of them and i had just enough engine to mod out my bike and give an amature on a liter bike a run for his money in the curves. she wasnt much but she gave what i need her to give and i love and miss her dearly and remember her fondly

I still think about the OG riders you will meet videos

I'm a Yammie Noob and Fortnine consumer, and this year I bought my gear!

Its sporty enough for aome fun. Lots of features, very solid on road feel. If anyone is wondering I get around 51mpg on the 8R for daily use. 3.7gal tank tops me out around 180miles of range.

Just got my Himalayan, and except for the hipster coffee place, I 100% agree haha!!!

some people have been starting on e-bikes to avoid the stress and fear of learning to shift while moving quickly or at a red light about to start and then stalling, and the cfmoto 450ss has been growing popularity for beginners. one example is motochrispy he started on a cfmoto a month ago his first video blew up and got 150k views in 2 weeks. it has had a recall, but thats a good thing it means their actually fixing issues with the bikes. unless its too many recalls then stay away from it

female rider is so real. i grew up on bikes but still took learning on the road seriously, started on a small bike, and mostly rode with my dad the first 6 months. been licensed for a year now and i hope to keep improving! i'll think about getting a big bike once i can master the 400. my dad says if you can't have fun on a 400 you're not a good enough rider and/or you're riding the wrong roads. 🤷‍♀️
