    Read this. I have never driven a bike before . I have decided to buy a cbr fsport 600cc as a first bike . I've learned how to drive a bike age 39 on youtube, believe me or not . Best thing i have ever done. U just need to be conscious of what u doing and at least be driving a car for years. Im now taking my mod 1, and i have no regrets buying a 600 cc as a first bike . Most people can not afford to change bikes all the time i believe u dont want to be stuck on a 125cc because u cant afford to buy a better one. Be safe out there.so my advice is GO FOR IT if u are responsible enough

    Always told myself “if you ain’t scared of your bike, you shouldn’t drive it” being too confident makes you do stupid stuff that you think you’re capable of.

    Considering starting on a 600?
    I started on a 2000 zx6r this year..
    I had very minimal bike experience before hopping on this thing. I had maybe 3-4 hours between a pitbike and a garbage 250 shadow spread out over a few years. I got the bike with missing plastics and some other crap from a lowside from the previous owner. It sat for 20 years with 1.5k miles. I have only put on about 3k of my own miles because i got it moving very late into this season. The bike doesnt have abs or electronic aids.
    How it went for me so far:
    I havent wrecked but i have dropped the bike. Ive been an engine builder my whole life and my brain was already wired for using a clutch. I had to learn to respect the bike. By that i mean, i wasnt afraid of going fast on a straight, but my braking and low speed meneuvers were ass, and i was scared of doing them. I almost got deleted a few times due to having more balls than skills. I didnt truly learn much from the msf other than learning to trust myself and the bike. I did not start to progress in my skill until i quit being afraid and just got some time under my belt. I was an absolute hazard for my first 1k miles. I now feel very confident and do dumb things here and there and still have more to learn.
    Starting on a 600 is doable. But there is a lot of risk involved, even if you do respect the bike. There is very little room for error. Id reccomend starting in the 650 class if you dont want to be on a 400 or smaller. Please wear your gear

    @swishh7693 5 месяцев назад +18

    I recently got a 08 R6 as my first bike and honestly its the best thing ever. Im a well disciplined 25/yo and have not gone into the power band as of yet (Over 8k rpm) and it handles and rides like a dream, however, I did hours upon hours upon hours upon days of parking lot maneuvers before I hit the roads. practicing leaning, stopping, circles, figure 8's and 1st gear super slow and tight maneuvers. If you respect the bike and actually try to learn then you should for the most part be fine, however, if your a speed demon then IMO a 600 as a starter is a terrible idea and you will get hurt. The bike is very powerful and if you treat it like a toy it will treat you as one too. Discipline is the key here.

    • @dtreezy
      @dtreezy 18 дней назад

  • @NotBatman2
    @NotBatman2 Год назад +20

    depends on the rider, the bike in question, and the skill level. Always feel the friction zone on any new bike you sit on before you ride it, no matter how confident you are, get used to the power slowly, and don’t ride beyond your limits and you should be alright.

    Yes to all that you said. Most of us broke boys dont have money to get 2 bikes in a year. Im planning on getting an R6 after my test, if I feel comfortable on the bike. Id just rather spend the money on something i actually want and learn into that bike instead of getting something because I have too.

    Here in the UK we need to do a theory test, and a 2 part practical test on a private lot and on the road. We have to do this for each category of bike from "CBT" (moped & 125) to "A" (600cc +). I believe if you start on a 600cc here in the UK you will be much better equipped to handle it... but it's a 600 sport bike, even experienced riders die on them. Just be careful.

    the 4k rpms starting point sounds really smart and responsible, I will probably do the same as you and go up in 2k rpms whenever I get comfortable. I bought my R6 a few weeks ago, and I'm excited to learn to ride, and to learn how the bike feels, and that tip seems like it will help me a lot. thanks for your advice, and the video.

    I'm your 100th subscriber BTW -
    Anyways I'm 15 almost 16 and yk I just love bikes I've ridden manual dirtbikes/dualsports and know stick shift and what not so I'm just tryna figure out how to take things. Because I'm getting my license in a couple months (also my endorsement) I'm tryna think of what's smart. And like what you said fuck around = find out. All the times I've ever crashed was messing around (clutch dumping in the mud, try to honk while wheeling a surron). So yea I basically come to the conclusion if I don't mess around I'll be fine.
    But then again I might just start with a grom or something just to say I did it and then upgrade later, but I honestly think I'd be fine I've figured out things like target fixation and clutch and what not so yea..

    I started on an FZ-07 and moved onto the R6 after a year. The FZ def helped with the fundamentals and being less powerful I didn’t get into any trouble. If you want to do it smart, get some experience under your belt before getting a 600 if you don’t wanna lose your license lol

    It's a great bike.
    But for a beginner your skills need to be refined at high speed the front end on the R6 is extremely agile.
    And the power kicks inn hard at the higher RPM.

    YES some people can only afford a 300cc and pay it off in 2-5 years. Or maybe they know they'll ride until their body can't so just be careful and start on a 600cc+ bike nothing wrong with that *especially* when they have rain mode / low power mode. Like the new Suzuki

    Here's a terminology lesson for you the word "inline" has nothing directly to do with discplacement size or number of cylinders (other than it has to be at least TWO of course) It literally ONLY refers to multiple cylinders being ladjacent to one another as opposed to a L or V configuration ....you understand that right? Cause it sure sounds like you think "inline" means inline FOUR the way you were suggesting it was foolish to start on an "inline"....lol ....as IF there are not plenty of inline twins suitable for beginners idk just sounded a tad ignorant. Reminds me of certain people that decided to call a shotguns a "guage" I guess because they assumed when someone called one a "12 guage" they ignorantly assumed "guage" meant the type of gun? or idk things like this just sound ignorant as hell to me.
