Kinda scary that this is how getting a bike looks like in the US. If i went to a dealerships without the proper license in my country and asked for a test ride they would laugh in my face. And this is exactly what this video shows compared to what we learn in a riding course. This is the equivalent of not having a license and just buying a bike without anybody batting an eye. I understand struggling to find the biting point of your clutch and all, but at the same time I feel like it should be a mandatory skill to have before being allowed out on the street on your lonesome like this. I have no doubts in my mind this guy now rides really well. But imagine how much higher the risk of death is for all the young people in the states getting their first bikes whilst being barely able to operate them? It takes only one idiot to think he can handle a litre bike before he's being scrapped of the surface of a tree/wall or just the road itself. Driving school in Denmarks won't even let you attempt a motorcycle course if you don't have a car license in the first place. The jump in regards to safety is crazy big here.

Really appreciate what you did! You are that kid in my head who is full of energy and positivity, who wants to walk up to my fresh-new, first motorcycle, wearing all new gear, and even an action cam, to record the excitement. Mad respect

RUclips recommended his first ride home video in my feed. But after reading some comments and coming here, I've to say I'm sad for him.

This video is very inspiring. Thank you for it. I am a beginner, too, and watching only expert advice sometimes gets intimidating. Videos like yours give me hope. All the best! 🤝💪

It amazes me how bad new American riders are. You would never be allowed to ride like this without an official instructor, after at least a couple of lessons on a parking lot to get the very basics right in the Netherlands. Very dangerous.

Does this z650 have passing power at 70mph? It sounded like it was running out of headroom at that speed.

Just watched this guy after going out on my bike for the first time. Was as nervous as me but instantly got confidence while on the road.

RIP brother.

The Kawasaki Z650 is nimble, powerful, and comfortable, with modern features and great value for its price.

LMAO, I totally forgot how I kept honking at everybody when trying to use my indicator, omg the horror of remembering that which I chose to forget xD

still insane to me you can buy and ride bikes there without knowing how to drive , in my country the drive test to get your license is not easy ,you basicly have to do flawless 8s and shift gears and so on

bro why tf youtube recommend me his 1st vid i go to the comments and bam he died......RIP up there man!

lol been riding 10 years and even i sometimes slip up specailly when im changing between my bikes and hit the horn on accident

so dumb to be a new riding buying a NEW BIKE.....def shd start with something used so if u go down no big deal

wtf how did you get your license :DD

Awesome! Lovely to see first ride. You did better than me on my first ride haha. Thank you very much for uploading! It's so wholesome :)

If anyone sees this. Please know there are many free educational videos on youtube, and you dont need to be here to practice. This could ve you if you don't stay humble and pursue perfection with your riding skills. Be safe out there

It's sad we lost him. it's not hard to make riding friends. I think it helps knowing someone was watching my back even just for a couple of rides. Even though I almost died my 5th time on my bike, some things I just can't tell my family. RIP rider, watch out for us. Wonder if Spirits can read comments, i bet there will be an AI for that one day.

Did you buy a motorcycle and ride it home without EVER having rode a bike before??? That’s insanely impressive 😂

Sweet bike. Happy for you. God bless

Not a great beginners choice but I hope you managed.

what city is this !?

4:23 OMG i did this too, trying to press the turn signals but missing it and click the horn, so enbarrasing

Wild that he posted this and then ended up dying in an accident.

Each comment is telling everyone thr guy passed away. Geez. You dont need to keep saying it. Wish his family well

Damnit guys, is he dead or not?!

Biginer, First bike, first ride, first canyon ride nice dude, awesome stuff.nice video bro.

I feel sorry for his family and friends. You never want to see anyone injured while riding a motorcycle. I have to say though, watching this video I see a lot of errors in his riding. He was making a lot of bad judgement calls while lane filtering.

Ill never forget my ride home with my first bike 15 years ago. A brand new xl1200c.. i remember being a little anxious and thinking the bike was heavy... but i never stalled because i already knew how to drive a manual. now i look at my sportser as a light bike lol... same as my hayabusa. I used to think my busa was a heavy monster. Now its my most nimble bike... getting good on a road glide limited makes everything else easy. Some folks aren't competent enough to ride. Apparently, this guy died because he was bad?

i would sht my pants if i stall my bike in a busy road man

im definitely sure you dont do this anymore but 5th gear is kinda high to only be going 35 mph lmao

that video is exactly the problem i have with american drivers licenses. you guys get to drive whatever you want and look like that. Imagine he´d bought a 1000ccm bike as his first. he´d be problably dead in like 20min because he cant ride anything above 50ccm. Hope you are well and learn driving the right way

Thanks for the video man. This is my next ride on the list for myself.

rest in peace man.

RIP man I just saw your first video and came here to see how it was going honestly devastating.

nice man! Don't put your bike in neutral at stop lights it turns you bike into an anchor.

Is 30-40 mph usually in 4-6 gear just curious 🫣

Nice brotha! I followed my mom home recently on a 2020 Harley Davidson 1200 it ain’t much but it gets the job done for my first bike, ride safe!

Well that took some guts Tully, well done.

RPM's to the rider - "Am I a joke to you"?

Good Job! The feeling and rush of freedom you get when you finally buy your own bike is always one of the best feelings ever. Knowing you can go wherever in the world you want, but you still just want to get that sucker your riding home in one piece.

He went through the course and still stalling the bike??? More practice before buying a bike maybe???

unsure about this bike, but on mine at least, you don't need to hit the kill switch if you stall. just hit the starter again. saves you a bit of time. only need to hit the kill switch if you come to a stop, or if your engine starts making a funky noise and need to pull over or something.

I don't think you should be in 6th gear going 30 mph bro, but at least you can shift. So, thats good. lol

This is what a beginner looks like, and it´s a lot harder than one might think. Great and honest video

Also start using two fingers to input with your throttle qnd not your whole hand..thats why you're shifts were jerky..smooth inputs means slowly shifting without jerking the throttle or clutch..keep practicing that and you will be smooth

rest in peace

Bro you're shifting early... I've never drove a bike tbh but where i come from we drive manual cars usually

the accidental honk took me back to my first days! one of the most embarrassing mistakes as a beginner rider for sure. lol

RIP
