They LIED to you about STARTING on SMALL CC bikes!

Ойын-сауық

Everyone will tell you to start on a small bike and work your way up. After 16 months (14,500miles) of riding with ZERO drops or crashes, I would like to share my experience of starting on a 750cc bike, then moving up to a 1000cc bike 4 months later. We will visit Mountain Motorsports in Marietta GA and check out some bikes! Cookie cutter advice can be the reason behind you crashing or getting someone else hurt!

    I started out on a zx10 2018. A year later I got a zx14 still ride them both. I’m 6ft0 260lbs solid. A 200-400 wasn’t even a option for me. I did a lot of riding alone and for the most part still do. That helped me tremendously. Wasn’t worrying about trying to keep up with other rider’s. That’s key. But that start on a smaller bike is bs to me. It’s all about responsibility. That’s just my 2pennies.

    Starting on a 1000cc superbike is a good idea if you never wanna learn how to ride. You can't ride, and the dude who posted this video can't ride. Talking bout some bullshit ass, "you gon ride with all this confidence and then it's curtains." You know you can't ride when you wanna sit there scared of the machine the whole time. The more I listen to this dude he just a clown concerned with his image, man I'm telling ya either one of yall would make the road run red trynna keep up with me and I ain't even no shit. It's irresponsible to be out here and not know what you're doing.

    I started on a 650 and wish I didn’t waste the money. Looking back I should of went straight to a 1000cc plus. I went from a 650 to a 1250. And he’s right, the technology in the 1250 impressed me more than the power. The power is nice though, weighing 200lbs and not feeling that weight on the bike because it pulls like crazy is a nice feeling.

    My first bike that I picked up a few weeks ago is a Kawasaki Z900RS Cafe, don't have a license yet! But I do have a permit. I am scheduled to take my MSF course a 2nd time. Last time in Oct of 22 I was doing great on the first day, but on the 2nd day I dropped the bike on the slow maneuvers! Of course, the instructors never mentioned anything about the friction zone and throttle control and using the rear brakes. When I got home, I looked up slow maneuvers on KZread and I said "oooooh" now I get! So I took a motorcycle lesson a few weeks after that and I performed U-turns and figure 8s very well. The first time I ever ridden a motorcycle was around 1982 (yes I'm 58). My bike is a 110 horsepower beauty, I'm 100 percent sure that when I hop on the lower cc bikes at MSF first weekend of April that I will nail it. So for now, I plan to ride dirty to Floyd Bennet Field in Brooklyn, NY to do some practice maneuvers. Thank you for sharing your thoughts on which bikes you should start on, much appreciate it!

    Dope video! Like seeing different opinions about this topic. I definitely agree with what you're saying about mindsets. The 60-70% of the people looking to get into bikes are generally between the ages of 16-24. Would I have trusted myself to start on a 600+ CC bike when I was 16? Hell no. Many factors come into play when riding, such as maturity and having control over your emotions and mindset. Even being 23 now, I didn't want to start on anything larger than a 300. I bought an MT03 for a few reasons, I got a 2020 model for $3700 and 500 miles, I liked the naked style, and it was the first bike I rode at my MSF course. I'm now a month and 2500 miles of highway, twisties, and country roads, and I know that I love riding, so I want to move up and get a ZX6R because I want to go to the track. However, from all the skills I've learned while riding now, I'll be able to apply it to the bigger bikes and continue to learn and adapt for the speed and stopping power.

    What attracted me to bikes in the first place was the sound, and the design of bikes. That emotion that only nice sounding bikes can evoke. And I'm working towards buying a bike. And the more I watch people say you should start on like a duke 390, I'm like nah, I look at the bike and I sit on one and start it, and it's just like nah, this ain't it. Luckily for me I rode dirt bikes when I was younger so I know the basics of throttle and clutch control well, and I know what happens if you press the front brake too hard e.t.c. I decided on getting a duke 790. Because what attracted me to bikes in the first place is the noise, and the emotion that only the more mid range and liter bikes can evoke. But somebody should do a video for people who want to start on a bigger bike. Things like you'll have to be so vigilant and disciplined, and what you have to look out for. But I'd say find a bike or even rent one maybe 3 times just to get a feel for the balance and the throttle and clutch control.

    Like the video! I gotta say that camera pov from the side made my head swirl when you were swinging into that parking space, lol! It tripped me out, and in a good way. As to starting on smaller bikes, I think for many that's a good thing. If you can't turn a 650, you'll get killed on a liter bike. That said, if you can handle a liter bike responsibly from the get go then cool. I have bikes from 250cc dirt, to a 900 pound HD FLTRX. Whatever you can handle. Exception: I wish that we had some licensing requirements more like EU for large displacement bikes so 18 year olds weren't getting their brains mangled losing a turning radius on a GSXR with 10 hours of riding experience. Ride safe and ride often! Btw: I love those Kaws! My first was a 1972 F8, then a 440 LTD, then a 1981 Gpz750. My current bikes are a Harley Nighster and FLTRX, and Kawasaki x300 and Versys 650LT, plus a 250cc Chinese pit bike. All are awesome, but the Kawasakis and Harleys are forever bikes. Your great grandkids will be riding them if you keep the oil changed.

    @The Screaming Chicken absolutely right. Ride where you're the only person until you feel comfortable. One of the quickest ways for a new rider to get hurt is riding with others. The peer pressure to keep up can be deadly. Also, the probability that your buddies aren't good riders but just fast riders is high. Amateurs teach Amateurs to be Amateurs - learn from a pro. And never forget that MSF also has intermediate and advanced courses. Those higher level courses can really help you develop skills to match your ride's capabilities.

    I started at 24 years old, took the MSC and bought my first bike, a Triumph speed triple 1050. It had a ton of power so I took it slow, rode around town real easy, practiced in parking lots a lot. I did drop it at low speed within the first couple years. But for me it was perfect. A big misconception is that you can’t die on a 250, I liked having the extra power to get out of bad situations and the extra braking power to stop on a dime. Now I’ve been riding 10+ years and I never needed a ‘starter’ bike. Point is everyone is different like you said.

But that bike I had was solid you drop that thing you pick it up if I was right up it barely even put any dents in it. Then I bought a Kawasaki zr750, I think I dropped that bike two or three times cuz I still go in the parking lots and practice stuff that I can't do because I want to learn how to do but between both bikes I only spent two grand to buy them it was $1,000 from one and 1500 for the other . two weeks ago I bought a 2022 Kawasaki versus 1000 I'm not going to be practicing on that I still got my other two old bikes to practice on, that thing cost too much money to be dropping LOL so I definitely understand when you say you definitely aren't trying to drop your expensive bike.

    Can't go wrong in this 650-750 class. More power than anyone but a pro can use safely, and a far more flickable ride than a liter bike. I know tons of folks on litre bikes who are perfectly safe - because they ride them like 400s. Why pay the bucks to buy and insure them when you can't use them to their potential. A word of caution on the 650 class: the Honda is famously boring by design (like their cars), and many riders who wish for something more thrilling often change to a Kawasaki, Yammie, or Suzi. Those are a bit more "spirited." Not dissing on the Honda, because it's superb. It's just intentionally designed to be "meh." Very flat power (great but boring), very forgiving dynamics (great for commutes and new riders, but slow to respond to flicks by good riders), average brakes (great for commutes and new riders, but not very precise for flicks). The Honda Accord of its class, you can ride it years and sell it for near msrp.

    EVERYTHING this guy said is 1000% true! If you know you want to end up on a liter bike, get a liter bike to start. As a new rider who never rode anything, I listened to all the noise and got a SV650... great bike... and I outgrew it and got bored in one month. I did dozens of hours of research, watched dozens of YT videos, read many forum posts and literally everyone was saying the same thing, so I figured they must be right. For me, THEY WERE ALL WRONG! I now regret it every time I ride. I have to save up for my next bike, which is a BMW S1000rr, and I'm stuck with this slow bike. I listened to all the people who said, "a liter bike is way too much bike for a beginner", "you can have just as much fun on a 650". This is absolute garbage. It's like saying you can have just as much fun in a V6 Honda Accord, as you can in a Ferrari. Total nonsense. Everyone's different though. If fun to you is moderate acceleration, you have no interest in going faster than 120mph, and/or you know you are reckless and have no inherent coordination and skills... then YES get a starter bike 100%. If you know you want to end up on a liter bike, you want to go 140mph, and have even a fair amount of confidence in your maturity and composure; then get the liter bike. I never rode and was entirely dependent on other's experiences and was totally unsure and apprehensive; if you're on the fence and unsure if you can handle a liter bike, but have a good feeling you can, YOU CAN! Most all modern super sports have low speed modes to learn on. Even if its an older 1000, just take it easy and start slow... you'll be up to speed in literally 2 weeks. Even though 95% of riders will tell you different, 95% (probably much less) of riders aren't interested in super sports, and they're NOT talking about riders like me, and potentially you. Don't let anyone scare you off your path. For someone like me, a "beginner bike" was a complete waste of time, and NO, it's nowhere near as fun. I rode my friends GSXR1000R and my 650 is nowhere in the same universe of fun.

    Totally agreed! Well said man. It's almost like some of these people are getting paid to sell small cc bikes. Or they try to pass their horror story on to you. "Yea man I started with a liter bike and it was way too much power for me!". I had so many people tell me my GSXR 750 was too much for a started bike. I got bored with that bike in 5 months. Like you said, it's all about the mindset of the rider. You can kill yourself with a 250cc if you ride above your skill level. It's all about having the right mindset.

    As someone who is starting on a Grom purely because of the mpg I see why you'd say that. I don't ride like a crazy person, I can't even if I wanted to. I regret that lack of power so I get where you are coming from. When I get to 10k miles on the grom (800 rn 9200 more to go) I'll likely swap over to the mt09 or the mt10 for one simple reason. I need to be able to commute 100miles both ways, 5 days a week. Can't have my motorcycle blowing up after 3 years of using it.

    Bro not all people is a giant like you. I have an asian genes im a midget the only thing that stopped me gettin a bigger bike is my height. The weight and the power of a 600 and a 1000 is too much for my height and weight specially when you dont have experience riding. Being big can actually give you confidence in starting in a bigger bike specially in traffic. Im riding for 3 months now with my 450 and I already wanna switch to a 600 lol. Riding is easy but learning how ride right is harder. But 400s are more forgiving there are plenty of space for errors. And you can learn easier from it. I agree with you brother. Ride safe. Cool video

    😂 That is a very solid point. I didn't consider the height thing, BUT you should see how tall some of the Moto GP riders are. You're absolutely right about smaller bikes being more forgiving. Big bikes can get you in big trouble. One option that may work for you is possibly getting a bigger bike lowered. I know a few short guys who ride lowered bikes with no issues.

    Most but not all that start on a 600/1000 super sport are slow for a long long time. Example, meet a new customer and find out he has a R1 had it for 5 years says he rides "hard". On the interstate he can go fast in a straight line but as soon as we get to the canyon I pass him on my "slow" R7 as he might as well have been on a Bergman 200. He can't corner, he can't brake and his lines look like he's drunk. This shit happens a lot but not every time. I would also like to note that I am not a very talented rider. I did have one friend that started on a CBR 954 and with in 18 months was in an ama super sport race.
