    No Not on a 1000cc. But I swear i wish I started on something bigger cause now I’m out here looking for a new bike, I could’ve learned everything I know now on a 600. And saved $$$…

      That's exactly why I'm starting out on a 600. I'm getting one hell of a deal, seen the bike heart it reved it etc. Love it. Got me hooked the dày I seen it. Ik what I'm getting into I've watched videos, grandpa told some experiences with me, and a ton of tips for starting on a 600. Plus I'm willing to take the time it needs to practice

    Should make a vid on what to look for when buying a bike (600) or any in general, since some of us might be trying to buy our first 600 and don’t want to get scammed ! Love the vid tho !

    Started on a 750 and then 1k. Just can't go ham on the throttle and that's where people seem to fail. Never drove a 600. Maybe I will get one for track days. To each their own.

    There are different style of riding we know. So my question to you is what is a good starter bike for someone traveling 70+ miles to and from everyday. Hint I like sports bikes!!!!

    • @1Down5UpOfficial
      @1Down5UpOfficial  Год назад +1

      Well a ninja 400 top speed is 116.7 mph so that would be a really good starter bike especially if it's for commuting

      These are super old and the previous owner had them installed already. If you look up race rails for your specific bike you should find a bunch. Ride safe man!

      @1Down5UpOfficial  3 года назад +1

      A 300cc is definitely more of an upright position so you definitely feel a more aggressive stance on a 600 but im a heavier guy so it puts a lot of pressure on my nervous and makes my hands fall asleep so I sit up a lot more to take pressure off.

    • @NAJErEa91
      @NAJErEa91 3 года назад

      @@1Down5UpOfficial ok. Thanks for the reply. Yeah my 300 is very comfortable but I desire more power and presence on the road. I might just go ahead buy it (the 600) and try it and if i don't like it I can always trade it back in for something smaller. I'm interested in 650s as well but I'm not a fan of the naked sport bikes aesthetics

      I started on a 2018 ninja 650 2 months ago , rode it everyday unless it rained it wasn’t a bad starter bike at all I dropped it twice right on my street not gonna lie I was literally brand new to riding. The 650 isn’t crazy quick but take it easy on the throttle you’ll be ok . I sold that bike now have a 2013 Gsxr 600 & I love it

    @englishsteel-nz6im Год назад +1

    Starting on a 600? Don't. Not a matter of maturity level or danger to yourself level as you can kill yourself on a 400 and someone reckless will... but developing nice skills and habits is easier on the smaller less aggressive bike. Then you can move up to a 600 and ride it well. Moto community also thinks a guy shredding on a 400 is way cooler than a guy with 3 inch chicken strips on a 1000 ;)

    • @1Down5UpOfficial
      @1Down5UpOfficial  Год назад +5

      I started on a 600 4 years ago and I've never been in an accident once. Never even dropped a bike. It does depend on the level of maturity and understanding your OWN limits. But to each their own.
