This is so wholesome omg
As a new rider, I am a repeat offender of forgetting to cancel my turn signal. Great video!
It’s happened to me a few times haha. Thanks for the support!!
@@MotoTSJ also good luck with the cyber security career! I've been in it for a little while and can attest that Sec+ is a really good cert to get!
@@uimkilos thanks! I plan on getting that one first. I’d like to get my foot in the door of any IT related job by the end of this year, but I do have zero experience. I know my time will come with landing a job 🤙
This one gets me as well, and sadly my turn signal relay isn't loud enough to be heard in my helmet.
I'm getting better though
Word of advice. When you are stopped at a light try and stay in 1st unless you are actually doing something and need to be in neutral. If a car comes up behind you and doesn’t notice you or simply isn’t paying attention, being in 1st will allow you to get out of there before you get hit. I made that mistake and got hit from behind my 3rd day riding. Tried to move but was in neutral so I couldn’t react fast enough. Also never assume anyone can see you. Congrats on graduating. Idk you, but I’m proud of you. Keep it up 🫡
Oh man, I hope you’re doing OK. Thanks for the advice. I do that in certain situations thanks for the support. I appreciate it and I hope you get a new bike soon if you haven’t already.
Heck yea man, congrats on graduating from college! Definitely deserves a new bike for that! Honestly for a month in you look pretty smooth. Be safe and ride your own ride my guy!
Thanks for watching! I am glad I picked up this bike, she’s been fun. Slowly improving and practicing a lot. I will ride my own ride for sure! You ride safe too brotha!
first reasonable and responsible rider i've seen, you're riding your own ride and always trying to be save and comfortable to yourself and others. Love that man
Thanks for watching, I’m here to have fun but do it responsibly haha
Hello! How do you guys like this camera angle?
It looks great.
@@felipe-nt-dsweet!
@tagru4920 thanks for the feedback! I am all for making these videos look even better. I’ll look into it and see what I can do
@@MotoTSJ Oh, yes even if you dont shoot at 1440p you should render the video at that resolution and put the bit rate at 90k or more to get a consistent image and not blurry, in camera settings defnly should be recording at least 30 frames, and in software enable constant bit rate
@@zahnyto709 I appreciate the advice! would that be through a gopro setting or through an editing software application?
Also I will make a separate video on my new exhaust.
Bro the footage is great and i love the new rider aspect so keep it up!
Thank you for watching! I just got keep on practicing and will get better :)
im currently 16 and my dream has always been to get a motorcycle and just enjoy riding im starting a cashier job soon and i plan on saving up all my money my mom and dad are gonna help me with my insurance and half for the ninja 400 but i need to get my drivers license first but this video is a inspiration if that makes any since.
Work as much as possible and you’ll be able to save up for when. I would recommend a ninja 400 or even the 500, it will be easier to find used ninja 400s though as the 500s just came out. Insurance will be a lot of younger drivers unfortunately but riding is so much fun. Thanks for watching!
i wish the roads in my country was this clear...theres traffic all day everyday. great video dude! I enjoyed cruising along with you
Where are you from? Thanks for watching!
Love seeing new bikers on the road! Ride safe out there ✌🏼🔥
@@Abbs2slick thank you, I love riding!
Getting this same set up later this week 🤘🏾🤘🏾🤘🏾
Enjoy it
videos like these are really helpful, im also from idaho and i plan on riding soon!
What bike do you want? Are you in the Boise area? Thanks for watching!
I'm happy for you bro! I started riding in 2022 and my metal horse of choice was the Ninja 400 Krt! They are awesome bikes, I'm not even close to be bored with mine like a lot of people said I would get.
Thanks man! Great choice of bike, the ninjas 400 are amazing. They have a ton of power and I couldn’t imagine a faster bike. I will be keeping my first bike forever. I wish I started riding many years ago
Had a 400 for a year! As pictured in my pfp, I still wish I didn't get rid of it for my daily commute. Had a deal on a r6 that I couldn't pass up. 400s are the way to go when starting, absolute UNITS on backroads!
@@itsGrayOk the Kawi green is so pretty, I don’t think I could to with any other color. Well congrats on the R6! I appreciate you for watching!
Yup, just keep relying on everyone hearing you buddy. Also if someone cuts you off make sure to rev bomb them instead of using ur breaks. Also thats the best upgrade u could have ever gotten, sounds like a H2 and not a dirtbike at all. Way to go bro.
I enjoy the exhaust a lot! Makes a huge difference, thanks for watching!
Another tech guy on a motorcycle! Ride safe bro
Yes sir! I hope to start my IT career soon. Thanks for watching!!
Such a pleasant video, friend. Congratulations on your graduation and well-deserved treat. I hear/see you doing all the right things. Throttle, brake, and bike control will kick on like a switch after seat time. Be safe. Rubber side down!
Thank you for the feedback! I appreciate it. Slowing improving, it’s been a fun beginner experience so far! Can’t wait to look back on these videos down the road and see how much I’ve progressed. What bike do you have?
@@MotoTSJ Currently, a 2016 GSX-R 750--been riding off and on for 20+ years. Started on a 300 way back when. I'm considering a Ninja 500 myself. A flickable, lightweight, COMFORTABLE (my old man body is begging; haha) sports bike that you can use the full range legally/safely for long rides is just plain fun! Plenty of upgrades as you progress. Enjoy that thing, bud. Stay safe.
@@FlushNY the clip on handle bars do help with being more comfortable on longer rides! I’m still working on finding the right angle for my throttle hand, sometimes the wrist can get tired. I bet your Gsx 750 is fast! I appreciate the tips, very helpful. Ride safe 🤙
Congrats on graduating! You deserve the gift you got yourself! Ride safe and have fun!
Something I've noticed with shifting on a smaller cc bike, once you hit about 10-12mph, shift to 2nd. 24ish mph, shift to 3rd. 45ish, shift to 4th. I've only had a 300 and that was back in 2016. But I rode about 1500 miles. It's so fun and free feeling!
Thank you! Feels good to be done with school. Thanks for watching!
@@alecmachovoe5142 oh yeah, definitely a lot of shifting which is fun, sometimes I’m jealous of bigger bikes where they can go 40 in 1st lol. Do you still ride?
About the nut crunchers lol what ive found helps is to sit farther back in your seat than right up against the tank. Its more comfortable anyways and youre not squeezing your balls
thanks! Yeah those bumps can definitely hurt lol. I’ll try that position out next time I ride!
I miss riding terribly, been many years. Hopefully, I can get another bike very soon. Excellent bike you chose. Enjoy that Ninja and stay safe out there!
Keep at it and always actively refine your skills with some drills, in addition to the usual riding.
@@LD777saed I hope you can get a bike too, riding is one of my favorite hobbies now! Thank you I plan on only practicing to get better
Awesome! Be safe non grandson! Love you! ❤
Thank you! I appreciate you for watching!
Nice video and audio, the bike is really cool and you're riding well, good job. Enjoy your bike and be safe!
Thanks, will do!
I've been binge watching ninja 500 moto vlog. My goal is to buy this dream bike on my bday ride safe bro love your video
Hey, thanks for the support. I appreciate it. I love my ninja 500. Eventually I will want to get my dream bike, which is a ninja ZX 6R.
Have fun, Stay safe you got this
Thanks for watching! I appreciate it!
Watching this coz I'm also new rider and want to see other people's POV, ride safe!
Thanks for watching. I hope this helps you gain more confidence as a new rider.
Picture and audio is great. Wouldnt change a thing. Looking to buy this same bike in a couple months. Cant wait! Liked and subbed.
Thanks for the feedback! I recommend this bike, especially if it’s your first one. It’s got enough power to have fun but very forgiving
Yea no problem! And yea it will be my first bike.
@@brett21411 awesome I hope get the bike you want soon!!
nice vid bro, this was good enough to make me wanna subscribe :) keep this up
Thank you for watching, i appreciate it!
Enjoyed the video. Team Green make awesome bikes! Enjoy your bike.
Thanks for watching! They sure do make amazing bikes 🤙
Idaho Ninja 400 rider here. Small town, far from everything lol. Subscribed....
Idaho here too! taking the MSF course in poky next month and hoping to get a ninja 500 afterwards, so excited!
Right on! Thanks for watching! Where in Idaho?
@@VEXYLEXI the MSF course wasn’t to difficult, everyone in my class passed. someone dropped the bike, broke the clutch lever and still passed lol. My advice is Don’t over think it and listen to your instructors!!
@@MotoTSJ Salmon.
@@earlecarlton9298 Salmon is beautiful! Ride safe!
Also try to stay in the left or right part of the lane, usually left side is better so you can be seen better. Riding in the middle can have debris u wanna ride in tire tracks
Sweet, that makes sense. I will ride in the left side more often.
Good job, love the bike, just one suggestion, try sitting at the lights in first, and foot on the rear brake, in Australia we call if the ready position, so you’re ready to move at anytime, useful in the event of an emergency 🥰
I appreciate the advice, I have heard I should do that by many people! Ride safe brother! Thanks for watching 🤙
I just graduated too and am getting myself the same bike! Not the SE tho, I love my analog tachometers too much to let that go. Sweet bike man
Awesome! Congratulations on graduating, you will love this ninja 500! Are you getting the KRT green?
Nice video man!! You’re definitely learning a lot faster than I did but congrats on the new bike and ride safe out there!
Thank you! I definitely have alot to learn but I have been practicing a ton and can’t wait to be more smooth with everything. I wish I got a bike a long time ago lol. I’m 28, wish I had got it 10 years ago but I’m thankful for it now. What bike do you have?
@@MotoTSJ I ride a 2023 ninja 400. the last gen of your bike👀
@@JNmotoz I really wanted to buy a used ninja 400, but I couldn’t find anything in my area. So I went with the N500. I didn’t want a new bike due to be a new rider. But I’m glad I went with it. I love it. I saw you had a channel, I’ll check your videos out once I’m off! Ride safe
Congrats on graduating college! You deserve that bike. Be safe and watch motojitsu videos on RUclips and practice practice practice! Have fun!
I’m glad to be done with school, hope to land a job this year! I have seen some of his videos, but got a Iot to learn still. Thanks for the advice, and thanks for watching!
2:20 same situation as me, just graduated and looking to give myself a lil reward with this bike. Congrats bro, be safe
Congrats right back to you! What did you major in? I would recommend this bike!! Thanks for watching
@@MotoTSJ Electrical Engineering at UConn. How bout you?
@@devonrojas283 cybersecurity at SNHU because my employer had a program where they paid for all my schooling! I plan on getting my masters at Boise state down the road.
@@MotoTSJ that’s awesome bro great career to get into. Masters is gonna bring that money too so that’s a good plan. Good luck homie
Picture looks good, that audio is also really clear. Nice work!
Sweet! Definitely am a fan of this go pro 12!
When you become famous for having an awesome channel don’t forget about your 98th sub 😆 ride safe bro and congrats 🎊🍾
Thanks for the support!! I will remember you. I hope to improve my content over time. I will ride safe 🤙
104th here, and ALSO new owner of a 2024 500 KRT, so great choice. Welcome.
@@RobertMorgan twins! Great choice, I was instantly sold on the color scheme when I saw it in person. Thanks for watching!
dope asf bro!
Thanks 💯
Nice reward, stay safe
Thanks for watching! I love this bike!
love the KRT color 😍
Me too! Best color option yet
Beautiful bike!!
It sure is! Thanks for the support!
Sick video love it bro!
Thanks for watching, i appreciate it!
You should stay in lane position 1 more so cars turning from the left side if the road can see you better. I got my wife the base krt 500 a month ago and shes still in parking lots but thats a fantastic bike
Thank you for the tip! I will ride in position 1. It’s a great bike, tons of power for us beginner riders. Hope she has fun and rides safe!
nice ride bud... 😊
Thanks for watching! The bike has been really fun!
LETS GO!!!
Thanks!!!
cameras fine good job. Be safe.
Thanks for watching!!
Nice ride!
Thank you, it’s an awesome bike!
That’s cool bro
Thanks bro!
you should be holding the clutch in and break at a stop in first gear. idk why youre putting it in N but thats dangerous
Thank you for the tip!!
THANKS FOR ALL THE SUPPORT!!
Looks awesome
Sweet, been loving every second of riding!
I want a sport bike similar to the sin motor size but I worry about the comfort.
It’s a comfortable ride with the clip on handle bars, they are much higher than super sport bikes.
My friend you don't have to block out all the street signs and whatnot, no one is going to stock you.
Just chill out and enjoy your new motorcycle 🏍.
By the way I appreciate this video cuz it just solidifies my choice of the Kawasaki ZX-4RR over the Ninja 500, because the sound of a motorcycle is very important to me, and the ZX sounds infinitely better....4 cylinder, 16,000rpm redline, oh yeah baby.
Enjoy.
Thanks for watching! Appreciate the advice 🤙
@@MotoTSJ
My friend always remember to ride safe, defensively, and always ride within your limits/skillset, that way you stay out of trouble.
Enjoy.
Very nice bike man. I’m debating my first bike. Either R3 Or ninja 400/500
I was in the same boat. I was looking at those 3 options, I went with the Ninja 500 because of the price, the dealers near me wanted an outrageous price for the r3, and they didn’t have the color scheme I wanted. Plus the insurance price was cheaper with the N500 than the R3. R3 is more sportier as the handle bars are much lower compared to the clip on handle bars for the N500. Either of the 3 bikes will be a great choice! Thanks for watching!
@@MotoTSJ sweet thanks man.
Have you noticed any vibrations in the handlebars/footpegs/seat at 70+ mph, and/or at lower gears and/or above 6k rpm? I've read such things on reviews, but some say it's not that bad (unlike on the 650 where it's unbearable). I ask because I will be doing a lot of riding on the highway and 6k rpm 75 mph is the sweet spot for cruising ... However if it's only in gear 1-3 then maybe I can tolerate it while passing cars. Otherwise if it's buzzy and vibey I'm afraid my hands will go numb after an hour and it will be a bad tourer.
I have not noticed anything crazy but this is my first bike. I just did a 60 mile ride and no issues. At higher speeds it feels fine to me. Thanks for watching!
Really like your stuff I know it is execrable work but if you want maybe cover some other people license plate other wise good stuff and be safe
I’ll try my best, thanks for watching!!
@@MotoTSJ just started watching bikers
bazinga!
Booom!
Yo man, do you hook up a microphone to the GoPro for better audio or do you just use the built in microphone. Looking to get my ninja 650 Thursday night buying a GoPro for it to start posting content. Would love some pointers!
I actually have a video coming soon on what I use, it’s not fully in depth video, but I talk about what I use. I may make a full on video about it though.
Congrats on the new Ninja 650! Is this your first bike?
@@MotoTSJ yeaaa, I been practiced like once on my friends 350 hawk, buh I’ve never rode or owned motorcycle before that 😅
@@notoriousb03 I may release the video later today, on my set up!
I have the same exact bike and I love it, I have same exact exhaust aswell. The only bad thing I can say is that the fucking gear shifter feels liek hard to kick up when going into higher gears, like I kick it and it doesn’t move up. This is my 2nd bike btw 6 months of riding, u experiencing same issues (never dropped it either)
Thanks for watching and the tips! Great choice, this bike is beautiful.
I wish i would of demo more bikes at motogp this year. I was gone demo this one but I own a cfmoto 450 so i didnt see the point.
Could you do it next year? How do you like your cfmoto 450? Thanks for watching!
@MotoTSJ the cfmoto 450ss is a good bike. I bought it new September last year and had no problems at all. Aftermarket support, parts, and resale value is only reason I wouldn't recommend getting one.
Yes, anyone can demo the bikes at cota during motogp. Cfmoto, kawasaki, suzuki, yamaha, and even aprilia let you ride a v4. All you need is a helmet and gloves. I had demo the gsx8r and I love it.
@@kidlo2050 that would be sweet to demo many bikes. I’d like to try out other options to get a feel for them! Ride safe 🤙
Kidna wish i got a 500 for my fist bike but got a really good deal on a modded CBR300r
Can’t pass up on a good deal! What mods are on it? Thanks for watching, and ride safe!
(First time rider) do you brake with your rear slowing down (45)? Or do you use both front and rear
@@urielzuniga5853 I usually brake mostly with my rear. I start off with my rear and usually that will slow me down enough with downshifting as well. I use my front break when wanting to stop fully, along with my rear. Obviously I will use my front and my rear at the same time if I need to stop QUICK.
Friendly advice don’t hold your clutch in at stops find neutral. Also cover your front brake. Your gonna burn your clutch up
Thanks for the tips! I appreciate you!
Beautiful bike btw. Becareful your shifts are pretty good. Your being safe and lovin life. Enjoy. I love my 400.
@@akmankalash what color is your bike? My dream bike is the ZX10R! That is once I get more experience under me and a few years down the road
This motorcycle has a wet clutch so it won't burn up by holding the clutch lever in. It's good to hold the clutch in when you're stopped and check your mirrors. This allows you to take off quickly from a stop if somebody comes up behind you quickly. If you're neutral, you won't have time to put it in first and will get slammed into.
@@mrstatictunes thanks for the tip! I’ve heard to do this often as well, I’ll look more into it. Thanks for watching!
where in Idaho do you live i live there to i live in the treasure valley and i know exactly what you mean by the construction its the same everywhere where i am EDIT: nvm i saw the side of the cop car and i wanna say you live probably 30 mins from my city 15 if you go on the highway there's two city's probably live in but i wont say for the sake of your privacy i plan on getting my bike in spring saving up right now would love to go on a ride with you sometime next spring
I’m out in Caldwell/nampa area
@@MotoTSJ i use to live out there before I moved to boise pretty nice area alot of back roads that's great for just cruising on
Should I get the ninja 500 or cbr500r? Btw, what does the red switch (next to the high and low beam) on the left handlebar do?
I would go sit on both bikes at your dealership to see what feels nice. I really enjoy my ninja 500. The red switch is the hazard button!
@@MotoTSJ Alrighty thanks!!
What the price of this KRT edition ?
Thanks for watching! Out the door price was 7.2k!
what part of Idaho are you from?
Treasure valley area! Thanks for watching
was the MSF easy?
Yes. I did an online learning session for learning side of it. Just had 4 chapters to study for, super easy. Then did 2 in person classes with 2 instructors. The classes were 5 hours long. All 10 people in my class passed! I think it was $130 or something like that.
@MotoTSJ taking my MSF July 20 and 21, it's my birthday gift to myself
Congratulations on the bike and ride safe
how much did u pay for the bike I'm looking at the same one or the 400
I paid 7.2k for this bike. A ninja 400 would be great too. Thanks for watching!
Definitely get rid of that tail when you can
I have done that haha! Thanks for watching!
how much fokkkking top speed
I think it’s 118!
shoulda got the 250 shoulda got the 250 shoulda got the 250 shoulda got the 250 shoulda got the 250 shoulda got the 250 shoulda got the 250 shoulda got the 250 shoulda got the 250. and just once more in case you missed it shoulda got the 250

Make your videos shorter if you are going to be silent for 75% of the video. Nobody is trying to listen to silence or breathing for 75% of the video.
Thanks for watching!
*IMPORTANT* The first 600 miles are the bike's break-in period. Read your owner's manual!!! You are going to destroy your engine. 🫣😲
I did read it, I’ve been told by many others that’s it’s okay. The bike is made for this haha
It’s not a Harley man😭 that bike is built to handle everything he was doing
@@tristanatchison7810 Lol. Ok, Chief Engineer and Owner's Manual-writer. 😅
@@Zizzyyzz you sound 14 do you even ride kid😭
