@@tammyforbes2101 Okay, since you didn't get the Joke. (turbobusa best bike) You can hang with most bikes in the twisties, even if your mad underpowered. As long as you somewhat respect the speed limit, you'll be okay with about 50-80HP, depending on how high the terrain is where you ride. It mostly comes down on how well your line is in the corner and how well you know your bike and it's limits. A big factor is the ability the "read the road" or just outright know where you'll be riding. When you know how tight the corner will be, you'll know with how much speed to approch, how far leaning over and all that jazz. I'm pretty happy with my XF650 (that has 48Horsepower) that i got because regulation (EU laws suck sometimes) and i ride up to about 6000 fett above sealevel pretty comfy and i can hang around with naked bikes that have 100+Hp easily. You may not have the best acceleration, but if you can handle cornering, you'll be fine.

As a beginner, I have had the worst time trying to find the perfect bike by reading reviews. There are always two schools of thought. 1. Start slow and trade up...or...2. Many bikes are good for you if you are a smart rider and don't go crazy with it. So confused!!

Seeing as the comment is 3yo I assume you already made the path choice. Just for readers on the comments. Both mindsets have their advantages. On the former, starting with a cheap 250 for less than $1000 will get you experienced on the handling of motorcycles. You will be able to make mistakes like hitting the brake too hard, pulling the throttle too fast, or doing something on accident while turning. With less powerful bikes the forgiveness is there if you tense up and act like a human(ie: do something the incorrect on accident when in a state of panic). my street triple and most street fighter bikes are designed for low end torque. Meaning if you hop on and pull the throttle too much or release the clutch too fast. It will shoot you to 50 in 1st gear within 2 seconds. That can cause panic and probably a crash for a new rider. However, for the latter. Starting with a higher tier bike means you don't have to waste money. In this economy I can understand. There is a lot of hassle upgrading every 6 mo, new tags, registration, insurance. So if you start with a mid tier, you have to go in it with the mindset that bikes can kill you, if you don't respect them. Starting with a mid tier means practicing for a lot in parking lots and seeing how it will respond to your inputs. Every persons journey is different. This I hope will help give answers to those who seek it.

What’s a beginner vs novice? If you’re a responsible adult, done your courses, got your endorsement and have some miles under your belt, buy the friggin bike you want. Nothing worse than buying a boring bike you hate and won’t ride, just because you need to “start slow”. Like saying you need to play classical for two years before buying an electric guitar.

I was going type out a statement about the benefits of starting on a smaller CC bike, but honestly at the end of the day it's your money and your life. The one thing I will say though is DO NOT FINANCE your first bike if you plan to upgrade later. I think OTD with everything said and done a ninja 400 is like 5.5 or 6k? Nothing sucks worse than growing out of a bike but still having to make payments. Just save and buy a used one straight up.

What you didn't mention is the quality of the feedback, which will definitely help you learn to understand how the bike is responding to your inputs. The chassis of the Street Triple RS is very responsive to small inputs to f.i. change your line mid-corner. Which is good if you misjudged how tight it is. Also, power delivery and throttle response are very good so you can adjust precisely if you get a bit of wheelspin in the wet f.i. Then there's the feedback from the brakes. Not the very best in the world but pretty damn good. And it's got ABS, so who's going to lock the wheels up? Nah, perfect beginners bike that you won't get bored with. Go get one folks.

I’ve had my street triple r since new,brought it in 2010 and it’s never missed a beat and it’s quick.had 125 scooter,passed test and got it 4 days after.was shocked at acceleration at 1st

My first street bike was a 09 Triple which lead me to buying my 20 RS. Definitely 2 decisions I'll never regret. Very well rounded and rider friendly.

I did 3 years with a MT 03. Bought it from dealership and learned how to ride it by myself. Then I wanted an MT07 but didn't really like it while riding. I went for the new ST RS 765 2020 and yes as you mentioned I got scared on the first 2 months, especially when going over 8000 rpm. Now 6 months later I absolutely love it :)

And honestly the first few rides on anything will scare you

I agree on the performance argument and I own 2016 675rs as my first bike. I took it just before yesterday to mountain roads the.firdt time, having ridden the str for around 5 months mainly on intercity trips. I mean 200-550km, so it accumulated to 5000km total just last year. I felt uncomfortable in the mountains, I was slower than experienced colleague and the cars and I wished for something smaller like ~400cc. I could have crashed several times in tricky situations, but I managed it. I had no motorcycle experience before the purchase and the license course, I just had drove cars for 4 years. I got the str just because all dl650 bikes were up to your Craigslist's standards and the deal was extremely good. I dropped the bike once in the traffic not seeing a kerb between lanes, almost without any damage. At any given time I haven't opened the throttle fully below 5th gear and above it just 2 times on a highway. I'm extremely delicate at 1st gear and till today the ABS was of no use for me, I needed it not even once. I got it the fastest just to 200kph once or twice shortly, the bike can do safely more. I love my bike and I'd make the same decision. It maybe too much for me and I could far better during the course at low speeds than now for some reason, but I wouldn't change it really soon, which saves me money I don't have, albeit the bike isn't perfect for touring I usually do. The quality, the luxuries, the performance are what I like about it.

I went from a 2004 Yamaha XT225 dual sport bike that I rode for about a year to a 2013 Triumph Street Triple, and that transition was amazing and gave me so much more respect for what the street triple can offer, even if it is a 2013. I totally agree though, starting out with a street triple is a bad idea because learning the fundamentals of riding on something with that much power would've definitely left me in a ditch on multiple occasions. Nevertheless, the street triple is a fantastic bike that will cost you an arm and a leg for maintenance, and both arms and legs when you try to fix it yourself and inevitably screw it up.

I can already hear the crossplane sound 😍

Did my Direct Access (UK) on a SV650 and a week later I bought an 09 Honda CB1000R. I've never looked back I love it and it's so nimble for a big bike!

im a semi-experimented rider and i like what you said about understanding why its amazing by starting small and getting slowly to your dream bike, i did that and its a beautiful journy

The Street Triple RS was my 3rd bike (EU motorcycle rider), I know I couldn't have comfortably rode it as my second, and especially not if it were my first bike. I'm glad I went 125>310>675.

I got the 2016 Street Triple 675R as my first proper bike (rode a Yamaha TZR50 in my teens). I feel it's a happy medium if you're looking for a Street Triple for your first proper bike. 105bhp with ABS, no rider modes or traction control. The 675's not quite as rapid as the 2017+ RS (I had one as a courtesy bike), but fast enough to get yourself into bother. I feel on the 675, most people with a little self preservation will get on just fine. I'll add a caveat to this, I got this aged 30, If I had the Street Triple as a 19 year old, I most likely would have hurt myself...

Looooooool I bought this bike for my first bike. Been a year now. I love it so much. I got the RS model as well.

I live in the Netherlands, where motorcycle exams are pretty strict (about 15 lesson hours spread over multiple weeks), and rightfully so, it’s potentially a dangerous hobby. My first bike was a street triple R 675 and I can honestly say it was the perfect bike for me to start on. It might be different in the USA where, as I understand, demands for getting your license are perhaps a bit more loose. Driving this bike is so much fun, it has A LOT of power, it pretty much feels like a rocket ship, especially if you’re used to a slow “basic” Toyota, although just about any motorcycle would do that ;) but as long as you’re responsible I think you'll be okay. The upside is it’s very light and responsive, and it's nice to be able to pass cars quickly even in 6th gear, perhaps making it safer than less powerful bikes. And oh my god, that sound is absolutely amazing, I wouldn’t have it any other way. Having said all that, you have to know what kind of rider you are. If you know you’re gonna push it to the limit, starting on a slightly less powerful bike is a good idea. Ride safe my homies, respect the power, be responsible, and you’ll be alright :)

Rubbish. I rode a cb125 for 2 days then straight onto my street triple, torque yes, fast yes, uncontrollable absolutely not, so glad I bought a street tripple, they sound great and look fantastic.

There is a 660 triple cc version updated for 2020 for beginner. Factory setting are 47 hp but You can unlock it to 94.

Street triple 765 is my first but I learnt on a 650 for a while

my first bike was a 2001 sprint RS 955cc . It was perfectly fine and my second bike is my 2012 street triple. i love it and think its perfect for beginners! wrist control is important.

Well...I bought the exact same bike, and year model, as my first bike (in black though). I never felt that the bike was tossing me around. In the first 1000km, I had it in the rain-mode until I got used to the throttle, which has the traction control, anti-wheelie, and ABS at the highest settings. It also takes 20hp of from the top end. It's almost impossible to mess up using then rain-mode even if you want to. After that, I put it to street-mode. Now I have 2.500 kilometers on it and feel very comfortable riding it, slow-speed maneuvers, highway, twisties, traffic, etc. Later on, I will put it to sport-mode. If you go through the modes and grow on it, it's very manageable, which is how you are supposed to start on it. Obviously if Ymmie would read the manual he would know that. For example, the R doesn't have a race mode, but only sport. It does have day-running lights which these diamond looking things, visible inside the headlights. You should certainly test a bike before you make a decision and not decide based on some else's opinion. Don't take me wrong, it's a great fun-channel that I have a hoot watching, but it's still an opinion. Plus, in the future when reviewing a bike please read the manual. To be honest I am not even convinced that the R1 doesn't have a fuel gauge. Who knows maybe he skipped the manual again. Just some (rather blunt) criticism, so he can further improve the content: Don't get lazy on the manual! :P

YN, thank you for a dose of good advice. Your monologue about leaving the ego at the door and starting off on a lower performance machine is a great point! I have seen that argument made in the aviation world, too. Many newer pilots buy high-performance, complex airplanes. Sure, they fly higher, faster and farther. But, like motorcycles that don't leave the garage, many of those powerful machines sit imprisoned in their hangars, almost never taking off. Their owners don't feel comfortable. By the time the pilot finally builds up the courage to fly, they feel like a student pilot again, needing instruction. Their machines scare the crap out of them. Better to start with a simpler machine. Motorcycling and aviation are similar. I rode a motorcycle before learning to fly. Now, I'm getting back into riding. I'll take your advice and start small. Should be fun. By the way, I hate the sound of the Triumph Triple--grating. All treble, no bass.

I forgot about the fear! Been riding for 21 years, and the best thing I ever did on 2 wheels was to start doing track days in my second year of riding, which eventually led to road racing for 4 years…it definitely accelerated learning and understanding the dynamics of riding fast and being focused to the point of feeling second nature. The learning never stops, whether in terms of riding skills, or in terms of riding with situational awareness and employing defensive riding skills on the street.

Well put. Got my license last week. I decided to get a honda cb300r instead of this. Next season, depending on where I'm at I will upgrade to this.

Yammie makes a lotta sense. Learned how to ride on a BMW F800R for my A-License (Germany). I then bought a an 17y old Honda CB500 in 2018 for my first bike. Rode it for a more than 5tkm and a lots of fun with it. Recently got a new Yamaha MT09 with twice as much power than my first bike. I'm enjoying it a lot. It's got more low down torque than the Street Triple. I know I wouldn't be enjoying it as much, if it was my first bike. But at the end of the day, you need to respect the bike's power.

Damn! Guess I shouldn’t of bought a Street Triple RS after of having a Duke 390 for 2 months. Though I’ve put about 1600 miles on it since October and have loved every single mile! I did start in Rain and have slowly graduated through the rider modes. Still haven’t put it in Track. Usually ride in road and sport.

@@craiglally6577 ah I see , well it really depends if you have good roads which in my case they're terrible. Anyways thanks! Ride safe✌️

Actually just bought a 2014 street triple. Love the bike but wouldn’t have wanted it as a starter bike

Had a 2010 Street Triple as a first bike, and I've gotta say you aren't wrong. If you're the cautious type like I am, and have riding experience, it is a great pick... BUT I've seen people hop on smaller bikes and immediately lose control because they expect less.

It's looks amazing, it's goes amazing and it's even better than amazing, Just need to swap light for something different- for example cyclop light :D

I got an old fazer 600 as my first bike and I am thinking for the triumph as my second bike ! You think it’s going to be a wise choice ?

Greate vid and greate ride ! ))

Street Triple 765 RS as first bike. Five years later and no regrets.

Got a 2008 street triple with the 675 in it as my first bike a few weeks ago and it is definitely alotttttt of bike for a beginner, I’m having to go really easy on it learning

I'm seriously considering a street triple as a second bike. You can find em around 5k used and theyre good at just about everything.

do it - you wont be disappointed

That cold start still sounds just like the '03. My dad is 74, dying of cancer and still rides his '03 speed triple 990 tuned up putting out 1200cc equivalent to the doctor, he's a G. When he first got it in 2007 for $3k he regularly accidentally popped wheelies as his previous bike was a '76 shovelhead he rode up until 1985 and got rid of as he had three young boys to raise. I Rode his Triumph once or twice recently after not having ridden for a couple years, and hotdog, it is not for beginners, or if you haven't ridden in a long time. Anywho solid bike he's had little to no problems with over almost 20 yrs.

You keep me safe on the road with my Suzuki gsx650f 2008 💯 always remind the responsibility of owning a motorcycle 🙏🏽🤞🏽

Correction, you keep yourself safe, not this guy. The only thing you can learn from Yammie is how to be an awful rider and have accidents whilst blaming other people ;)

I agree. I own a 675 '11 STriple and I've ridden the 765RS STriple. They're incredibly powerful (I hopped on the 765RS after a Monster 797 test - WOW the difference) and can be quite unforgiving for a new rider, especially the older throttle cable-actuated STriples like mine. Great 2nd/3rd big bike though :D 👍

A dealer told me that if you put it in the rain mode, it's ok for beginner. I have no idea. I can't decide between Trident and Street Triple

Depends on the definition of “beginner”. Is that the skill level and knowledge to ride responsibly until you get use to the power? Anyone going from a 300cc 40hp to a 800cc (ish) 100+ will not be prepared for the power increase. You ride it and ease into it by managing the safety device between your head and your wrist.

I’m taking one for a test drive here in New Zealand this weekend. I have an R3 currently. The street triple are learner restricted here with a 660cc motor at 55hp. (Compared to my R3s 45hp) I’m still on learners. Once you have a full bike license the dealership will de restrict the bike. Which ends up with 95-98hp. Still less than the 675 108hp obviously. But it’s a massive incentive to buy, Being able to have your forever bike early in our licensing journey, to then be unleashed once you are a better rider.

I brought a 2012 Street triple r non abs model as my first bike, I dropped it, locked the front up once back wheel once and couldn't get both feet on the ground which resulted in a lack of confidence, so I bit the bullet and part chopped it for a z650 which apart from the soundtrack is a better bike for me. Would love another Street triple next though.

Read the title so I bought a speed triple instead. Thanks yammy!

Speaking of beginner bike (ridden dirt bikes yada-yada) I just bought a 2020 mt07 today. A-1 prime squidlet here. I can’t even begin to explain my love for this bike already.

I only fear how far I can lean before I break traction, haven't been able to get over it yet

Did he really say that a newbie shouldn't have traction control and rider modes? Literally every other blog about new riders say these are irreplaceable for new rider safety. Put it in rain, and trust your ABS and traction control.

Hey yam is opening the giveaway to Canada a possibility at all?

In Australia we have a beginner version that’s a diled back 660cc learner bike, around 60hp to the wheel

The 2019 Triumph Street Twin probably would have been a better choice for a bigger displacement beginner bike and it costs under 10k.

Bought a z400 as my first bike, I can always upgrade later after I learn more, cause ngl I was scared to ride it at first

I think one thing that he consistently forgets when he mentions that you should always start on a smaller displacement bike, is that.....not everybody is rolling in cash. A typical person.....has to save a long time to buy 1 bike. If he does buy this "beginner bike", it's going to take him EVEN LONGER to save for the next step up, then the next step up, then what, a bike he really wants? Not everybody and i should say, 99.99% of the world that owns a motorcycle, doesn't own 15 motorcycles. We live within our means for the most part, and for most of us, its 1 bike, maybe 2 TOPS. After watching his videos for a long time, I sorta got bored of the whole.....small displacement bikes are the best, and instead started to think.....would I ever be able to get the bike I want? I'm a normal guy, can I afford to replace a bike every year or two? Of course not. I sort of feel like things need to go in the direction of staying safe, but riding the bike you want, instead of being someone that has all this money to buy bike after bike after bike to slowly progress.

i just bought one of these. first bike. the sound is what got me. '21 MT03 was my first though, but it's literally too small. the triple was a good price too. haven't gotten to ride it yet though. hoping it's tolerable.

I’m currently looking for my first bike. And I’ve been looking at a MT07 for a bit now, but my local dealership has a 2016 street triple 675 sitting there for about $2k less than a new mt07. Even after watching this video, I’m still considering it 🤷🏻‍♂️ I will say, I’m pretty good at showing restraint. I’m a professional auto mechanic, and I have driven 900+hp cars, several times

can i get opinions on the comparison of the seating postion between: gsxr600;sv650;street triple?

2 months in, I am ready for this.

I bought mine as my first bike 10 years ago,it’s so easy to rider and I love the sound with my HP Corse exhaust…without the dB killer😉

Yo papa yam! I’ve got a 125cc been riding it a few weeks. Waiting to do my full bike test here in the uk. I’ve also got a 16 plate street triple. Good idea or not so much?

Do what u like mate

True that Yammie listen to the boi new bros.

I have been riding dirtbikes since I was 13 (yamaha ttr-90 ---> suzuki 185 ts). My first real bike is the 675r Daytona. I found your channel looking for Daytona vids. I have a lot of mountain / road bike experience too and have track time in a car at Lime Rock, so I'm sure that helps

As a random dude that started on an 05 Suzuki SV650 about a half a year ago (and I’m loving it) what are my options for 3 cylinder bikes? I don’t want to sound like an absolute noob, but I’m in love with your 675R’s sound. Do you think they’ll continue to make it/is it good/are there other options/I dunno let’s start a discussion here. (Idek if it’s called a 3 cylinder I’m just hoping I remember hearing that)

They don't make the 675 anymore. You can shop second hand though or go for the 765. If you want a 3 cylinder naked bike there is not much choice. Main contenders would be the Triumph Street/Speed Triple, Yamaha MT-09 or XSR900 and the MV Agusta Brutale.

Black 2017 speed triple 1050s as a first bike for $10,500 with zero miles. Never had a problem with the power, easy to control, never dropped it. Still love it.

I just bought this bike well the RS its my first naked bike. I took a course early this year and I had been working all year to buy this bike. And of course I will mod it with the safety kits. Soon I hope I can make videos of this bike, first time i saw this bike, I told myself "I'm getting one the of those.". It may be expensive but hell I'm sure I'm gonna enjoy riding it from home to work and weekends. Originally planned to buy the MT-07 But decided to go all out.

For the people that are commenting on things Yammie explained in the video and didn’t pay attention, only get as much power as you can manage, people can manage different amounts of power as beginner or slightly experienced rider. See a lot of people still confused or just being ignorant, hope that helps you guys. Everyone be safe out there, and Yammie please keep educating the world on bikes, love what you’re doing, you’re making the world a better and a more motorcycle tolerant and safe place, think although it’s an old video it’s a good one

You’ve rode both a z900 and the street triple what would you say is a better buy? Most people I’ve talked to has been leading towards the z900

Cruiser bro here, really enjoy your videos! Forever 6th gare!

Got an 09 street triple r as my first bike, I will never sell it. Always a blast to ride and got that classical bug eye look👌

I would like to have anyones thoughts about the Street Triple, I've seen some reviews and Yammie's does help. But I would like to know from someone who has had it for some time now and knows my experience that I'm going to share. Because I'm getting to know some 600 bikes. I'm planning on upgrading to one after I do 10,000 km (roughly 6,000 miles) on my Honda 160 cc, also so it doesn't loose that much of it's value when I sell it. I really just want to have something more technological, my Honda is actually a 2020 bike and it's carburated (didn't know that well when I first started). It has a disc on the front wheel and a drum brake on the rear wheel. It's a nice bike, it was my dream and I made it true (I'm happy). But I don't want it forever and I do want to upgrade to a 600, I think they have enough power and will have what I want. Which is fuel injection, enough power so I'm not left behind anymore 😅 and still get anywhere with all safety included. Now that you know my experience and that I've only owned that one bike, share your thoughts with me. I do appreciate it! 🤗

I’ve just bought one from learning on a 650 SV Suzuki and owning a Honda cb125r and without doubt it’s the best decision I’ve ever made..... you’re going to get bored with a lesser cc bike and want to upgrade. Street mode or rain mode is perfect for getting to grips with it for a day or two but it’s an awesome machine and worth every penny. Don’t listen to this Yammie guy he’s a bit of a pussy.

I got my bike licence 5 months ago and ride a 660cc triple and have put a foot down twice because the back slipped out. I did think I need less power at first but if my goal is to get a 1000cc I best stick with it 😊
