    Starting on a liter is definitely possible. My first bike is a 2010 R1. I wanted to get a 600 or 750 because I've never rode before but came across this for a steal so couldn't pass it up. I probably didn't leave the drive way for the first week or so just getting used to clutch control then eventually went to a parking lot. You gotta be mature minded and definitely respect your machine. Regardless of what anyone says you can never get enough practice, Ride Safe ✌🏾✌🏾

Going from C to A is significant, however it’s not like going slow and then you’re on a jet. I just noticed there was less “holding me back” as I apply the throttle.

    Started on a 1000cc. Definitely don't recommend for young beginners but if you are mature enough to take your time to learn it before going ham, take a couple courses, and practice practice practice your technique its no problem at all. The power band restriction is also an added bonus. I put it one tick down while learning for awhile and then took it up when I was ready.

    I grew up riding sport atvs which had similar clutch control to actual street bikes, I had been told dirt bikes are quite the same however I had only ridden them maybe twice in my life, fast forward to a few months ago when I decided to purchase an Indian scout bobber, no lie within a month of having it I wanted to sell it as that 1100cc engine scared the crap out of me. Seemed too much to handle. But then I decided to backtrack a little bit and take the proper time to learn riding step by step. Binge watched a bunch of RUclips videos and wrote down every detail that made me nervous or was uncertain about and I asked a lot questions to fellow riders. Fast forward to now and I can’t imagine being without it. You really got to want it! There’s nothing else like riding a motorcycle out there. All the looks you get when riding in town to all the fellow bike riders flashing you the ✌🏼 as you ride past each other. So yes it’s possible to start on a large engine bike, just respect its power and understand what it can do to you if you don’t.

    Of course you know it's possible and so do I. It really is about the rider. I keep my lust for speed in check because I don't want to lose my Fz1/R1. It's too easy to get wrecked. Starting on lower rider modes makes literbikes a feasible 2nd bike at least. If I could get a current gen R1 for a first bike, I would ride it at mode C, working my way up from there when I build more skill.

    When I was younger, I've never rode a motorcycle and didn't ride alot of bicycles neither.
    As I grew up into my early 20s, my 1st motorcycle was a 1300cc Suzuki Hayabusa.
    I've never thought about getting something smaller because I knew it wasn't my high.
    Loved the decision I made and went up to 170mph on the bike but at the same time I really respected the machine.
    Now 20 years later, I'm riding on my GSXR 1000.
    I would say, it really depends on how you are as a person

    my own opinion a new rider can definetly start with a 1000cc.. but there are very good reasons why we recommend begginers to start small cc.
    A.So they don't kill themselves
    B. They can actually learn the basics with ease, therefore much safer. I know too many new 1kcc riders that couldn't do a u-turn to save themselves in a pinch.
    C. Self discipline, new riders will tend to have that "high" which makes themselves seems invinsible. They are fast and they feel fast, nothing can stop them. Until they get a felony or...
    D.they kill themselves

Last race bike was a 1979 YZ 250 two stroke and i could man handle it. Right after high school i went to the dealership to buy my first street bike. I was looking at the 1000cc's and let the sales guy talk me into buying a 550cc bike. Knew it was a mistake because it was lacking in power for me. Kept it less than a year and bought the 1000 i wanted and sold the 550 to a friend of mine that wanted it.

    In "02" my first streetbike was a gsxr1000. I started on dirtbikes too when I was 11yrs old. There was no rider aids or electronic rider modes or even abs. It was so easy to get extra hp with just a pipe and air filter. I had it for 7 mos and had a tank slap into a violent wobble at over 100mph. Until that day it was all or nothing on that bike. I was young and dumb. I knew I was addicted to the adrenaline and would be dead soon. I kept it for a few yrs and got 600RR. Best decision I ever made. For me, it made such a better rider. I rode the bike it didn't ride me. I laid it down more times then I can count but I'm alive to tell the stories. 17 bikes later I have s1000RR and an old Bandit. I'm 43yrs old and I ride until my dieing day. Like you said in the video everyone has their limits, they need to respect them. BEAUTIFUL BIKE U GOT THERE. Your a brave man, about the age I got my 1st bike. I wanna hear your stories in 20yrs and see what the kids are working with by then. Ride shiny side up bro. Thanks for the vid

    My first street bike was an 02 R1, straight out the crate.
    Back in the day (early 2000’s) a large majority of riders in Atlanta started out with 1000’s, and even 1300’s and we never had a issue and were glad we got what we wanted the first time.
    Think about this also, lot of people don’t have the financial resources to switch out bikes after 1 or two years, so whatever they buy they are stuck with that financial commitment for no less than 5 years.
    Be safe and no matter what you ride, or how you start out take some advanced rider course and gear up, but most of all don’t push beyond your limits and have fun 👍🏽

I also have a long time girlfriend and hope that the drivability will be a lot more responsive compared to a 600. the only reason im deciding to go with a litre bike is because i know i have self control and not try to be a faster rider until i am experienced

      If you started on a 250, a 600 will blow your fucking mind no matter what. I rode a Vulcan S (same engine as a ninja 650) for 2 years before I bought my gsxr 750, it took me 2 weeks of riding before I wasn't legitimately scared of it. You're talked well OVER double the power even just going to a 600 dude.

    Yes, for the street big bore is always a better choice than small bore. This will save the loss on re sell of the 600. As a first bike? most likely a ticket to an early demise. Main things minimizing the risk are. 1. Forget trying to learn performance riding skills and or pushing it hard on the street, get to doing track days somewhere to learn that, from professionals. Save the money for it, and save your life. 2. Master braking skills above anything else, and not just the bs slow speed braking skills, but emergency braking skills at the "speeds" you get up to, whatever they may be. This must be practiced, to be mastered, and will be the skill that saves your life sooner than anything else, multiple times as well, if you are in it long haul. Enjoy, she is a sweetheart.

    I "started" on a 150cc scooter at 19. Only had it for a week. I let the little head take control of the situation instead of the big head when she said she know how to ride. She jumped on it hit the throttle and shot out the driveway, across the street into a parked car and bent the frame. Brand new scooter, I put 45 miles on it. Ain't been on one since kids came and didn't have time or money to buy another. Now I'm 40 and bought a '96 Kawasaki ZX9R and after 2 years of working on it I'm almost done. So theoretically my 1st and 2nd bike will be a 900cc

    Starting on a 1000cc bike is lunacy , you haven't got 1% of the skills needed to get the most out of that size of bike.
    Riding well and quickly has very little to do with engine size, but all to do with position, speed and observation together with being able to keep your bike high up in the rev range.
    I can ride my 600cc way quicker than I can my 1000cc.

You 100% can start on anything you want, just respect the bike, plain and simple. While other idiots are popping wheelies as soon as they got their liter bikes, I spent my time learning what my bike wanted to give me on corners, turns, and straights.

    Idk I disagree to an extent. My first bike was a 05 GSXR 600 and I'm glad I didn't go with a 1000 like I wanted to initially. It's definitely plenty of bike for a brand new rider to learn on and grow into. Since most 600's don't come alive until the upper rpm's the throttle is more forgiving compared to 1000's unless it's a new bike with riding modes and traction control like the one in this video. They're also lighter and somewhat smaller than 1000's so smaller built people can benefit from that. Also being able to rev a bike out to 16K rpm is an awesome experience lol.

    As a kid, I’ve always dreamt of owning a motorcycle. A Ducati. As I got older, my love for motorcycles grew with me. I’ve never ridden one my entire life. 0 experience. In august of last year, I decided to get my permit. Passed. A week later I walked into a dealer and walked out with a new Ducati panigale v2 that they happen to have in stock from a customer that had canceled their order. One week went by and I had scheduled a MSF/BRc. I got on a bike for the first time with a 250cc. First test, failed the class. Got home that day and somehow I managed to build the courage to get on the ducati because i couldn’t just let that beautiful machine sit in the garage without being ridden any longer. To be honest, I was scared as fuck. Stalled many times but as I practiced more and more, i got better. Two weeks later, rescheduled a recycle BRC and with what I’ve learned from the first failure, I passed the second time as a better rider because of the time and work that I put in on my V2 so going back to MSF/BRC with a 250cc bike it was a breeze riding through. Now I got got license and living my dream. If anyone reading this is planning to start on a 1000cc bike, I suggest taking a BRC class. Believe me, you will be glad that you do did.
