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 140+mph, 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. The S1000rr is the PERFECT first bike, for the right person. To be clear, I'm not saying that OG in the video is wrong cuz he's right when it comes to some people. For anyone who knows that they're 'LiKe ThAT', don't hestiate.
I agree, it's totally dependent on the person. The average person would get themselves killed riding an S1000rr as their first bike. People with coordination and a brain will adapt to the s1k even if its their first bike, although at first it will be extremely dangerous.
Dang man I really want to just go ahead and get the bmw but just hearing you talk I think I will probably start out riding with a gxr1000 instead. I definitely want to start on a 1000 because I’m a speed junkie with respect for the vehicles I drive.
@@zl1booker i’m going off my experience. I had a brand new Suzuki and my Beamer brand new. Did you have both both bikes and experience the traction control on both bikes if not calm down …

Nice Video ! I thought the wheelie control on the s1000rr is amazing and it does a great job of not letting you get too loose.
The front wheel raise so high one day I thought I was Vin Diesel.
@@reesecapone1942🤣🤣🤣
@@split317 yeah it is. It only got loose on me one time.

I suggest you start on a Gixxer if you gotta have a 1000 mine save me so many times.
That bad boy clean!!
@@woodywood1890 thanks
Dawg that MF sound crazy lol 😂
You gotta be the sickest og in the county 😂
@@kyte1x215 thanks bro. I really appreciate that.
Where did you get the bmw light sticker?
eBay
@@entertainment_today some German company I can’t remember the name if I find it I’ll let you know
lies, lies and more lies. The traction control on that bike is second to none. You don't know what you're doing, so stop giving out misinformation.
