STILL HERE PEEPS! I’ve been trying to figure out how to produce and edit better vids, hence why i haven’t uploaded in sometime. Hopefully i can get some better quality out there soon! Thanks for the support!
A big thing a lot of newer riders don’t know yet, which is crucial is “ ride your own ride”. This means go the speed you are comfortable with, not the speed of other riders, especially cars! Do Not aloe anyone to force you into a turn or corner too fast! I say this as a fellow rider who made this mistake myself and ended up high siding, luckily I was wearing full gear… Seriously, make the world wait if you have to, go as slow as you have around those turns until you’re 100% you got this. And make sure you get some frame sliders they protect more then just your bike! Motojitsu and adobo moto are some good channels to watch. You got this man, ride safe, and have fun
Sorry but this falls on deaf ears to the folks who think zx6r is good first bike. New rider first time rider should not be on street on anything. 40 plus yrs riding, if you start ypur bike riding on street your odds of major crash injury and death are way higher than someone who learned in dirt. Dirt bikes lighter less powerful much easier to control. No cards rails walls to kill you. When riding becomes instinct then you are ready for road. Lost 3 friends in hogh school and rightvafter cause their first riding was on street and it killed them. All 3 made rookie mistakes and on roads in traffic the first mistake can be deadly and your last. I.made same ones but in dirt where odds are 1000% better of living through said mistake
Make sure you’re releasing the throttle when you pull in the clutch and give it gas when you release the clutch. Only when you’re starting from 1st gear do you give it some gas while releasing the clutch so you don’t stall. Keep practicing, you’ll get better at it. Eventually you won’t fear going out in traffic and you will start to enjoy your rides more. Nice starter bike, by the way.
Yeah buddy you need to give it some rpm and it will help your shifts and other things! You don't have to give it a lot but sixth gear at fifty miles an hr, I'm surprised the bike is still running. Lol you will get it the more you ride, don't be scared of the throttle but keep respect and thank you for posting, I love your bike and can't wait to see to progress!
I'm here saving to buy my bike been doing lil practicing on my friends r3 still working on my friction zone lol but I knw how to shift gears n downshifting it's jus the releasing of the clutch to get the friction zone is my lil weakness but I'm working on it so by time I finish save I will b ready
shifting to early might be a reason but practice and practice then one day youll come back to look at this video and see your progression. we as riders have all been there.
Hey bro hope the bike has been treating you well! Just came across your video went ahead and hit the subscribe button for you. I'm looking to get my first bike too... Everybody and their mama says start out on a Ninja 400 I'm sorry I'm a 40-year-old infantry Marine my ego is a little too big for that... I'm looking at the ZX4rr to eventually step up to the ZX6.All I really want to know was how the ZX6R was for you as a first bike...
Once u get out of 1st into 2nd I found blipping to shift the rest of my gear is easier, also I’d learn rev matching which can make down shifting much much easier. it’s the first thing I train myself when first starting out.
I have the same bike. 2023 6r. Been riding for 4 yrs. Started on an R3. Just got the 6r in October. Ist to 2nd is jerky even when you do it right. Turn the quickshifter on and u don't have to use the clutch on the upshuft. Just keep the throttle open and shift up. The down side is u wont learn how to shift properly using the clutch. Down shifting is just practice. Just match ur rpm's to ur mph. 20mph 2nd gear. 30 mph 3rd, an so on. Same thing when ur slowing down. Dont stay in 5th if ur going 20mph. Practice practice...
I hope you see this the problem with your shifting is your just shifting at to low rpms wait for the rpms to rise a little more before you shift up it’ll get rid of the bogging and keep your bike in good shape if your bike is still in the break in period try to avoid the high rpms but don’t shift in to low rpms either. Make sure you let the clutch out in one motion you can do so slowly or at a moderate speed but make sure not to let your clutch out a little then pull it back a little then back out that’s what I did when I just started it causes the bike to jerk around a bit when shifting
So if you were uncomfortable when you were at the dealer, why not a 650 or 400? Im all for ride your own ride, but common sense would say get a bike your comfortable on to learn. Better to ride a slow bike fast than a fast bike slow
And on your bike you have the quick shifter when shifting UP. But u need to be in high rpm’s for it to be smooth . So when your going fast and ready to upshift all u need to do is click your foot shifter up. Don’t need to touch your clutch lever
@@TheEffectionable haha yea the zx10r has quick shifter and auto blip down shift but the zx6r only has quick up shifter . Try it out man . Rev it out and upshift quick . No need for the lever . But at low rpm it’s rough. So don’t do it if your going slow.
And when your down shifting don’t be scared to have high rpm’s either . These bikes are meant to be at max rpm’s . Down shifting you shouldn’t even have to touch the gas just clutch in downshift and let out the clutch lever .

Hell yeah brother keep grinding homie we all started somewhere 👊🏼
I picked up my Kawasaki Z900RS Cafe last month, only have a permit and rode it dirty home! I'm 58 and I agree with you, the slow manuevers are a pain.

have fun with it and enjoy it!
Continue grinding on the channel. Ready to see you grow. Stay safe!
You're pulling your clutch all the way in you only need a quick squeeze!!!!

thanks for the info! i had no idea it had a quick shifter i got to try that out
QS is up only.. U still have to downshift as normal
When shifting u don’t need the clutch only downshifting
Counter steer more than actual leaning
Watch a bunch of RUclips vids of people that own your bike . Watch how they shift and stuff. Helps a lot too.
This is gonna be me next month pretty nervous, got the msg scheduled for early next month and was looking at a zx6r too!

Clutch and throttle coordination to shift properly,,, then be careful and brave at the same time..
Enjoy 😊
Thank you!!

really??? i had no idea it has a quick shifter.Will definitely be trying it out

That’s my next upgrade, same color. Dislike the green.
try not closing your throttle all the way when your shifting from 1st to 2nd
Get out of the habit of rolling stops, intersections are where all the bad stuff happens.
Starting on a 600 is doable but personally I highly suggest starting with at least a 2-250cc. I started on a 125-400-636cc. Ride safe!
No one starts on 250s with all the beginner bikes out now.
And when your down shifting don’t be scared to have high rpm’s either . These bikes are meant to be at max rpm’s . Down shifting you shouldn’t even have to touch the gas just clutch in downshift and let out the clutch lever .
you need to break in the bike first guy make sure keep rpm low during break in perod on the new engine. Im sure there is video on ths some where.
Your shifting to low in the rpm’s you gotta get higher up in the rpm’s
Any advice on not to damage your engine? Lmk yall!
And don’t slow down between each gear shift
Sounds like you burned your clutch
For your own safety go to a harley dealership and take their riders course.
Part 2: RIP 🪦
Not yet 😏
People say you shouldn't start on a 600 cuz once you learn that bike gets to 1200+ rpm and goes 165 mph, you will get ahead of yourself
It’s all about the rider in my opinion. No matter what bike you start on you can get hurt really bad.
Ride it like you stole it
