I'm technically a beginner bro. Went from a 600 to a 1300 hayabusa in 6 months I respect my bikes. And don't drive over 70 in traffic 💯💪🏽
That’s a hell of a upgrade man! I see you ain’t playin 💪🏾💯💯
@chillwithkea it's because of channels like yours fam. I'm trying to get to S.C next year in the spring I'll bring the hayabusa 🙏🏽🏍💨
@@twoglocksforsure big bet, let me know when you come! Appreciate you man 💪🏾
I look forward to meeting you family, I see you play siege too, my pop has his hayabusa but traffic out here is crazy
@@chillwithkea 💯🙏🏽
perfect for a beginner who's tired of living.
In your opinion.
😂😂😂
@Natureboypkr2 it's kinda true. You got a higher chance to kill yourself if your a new rider with no experience. You dint get a bike like that and don't get on it responsibility..even being responsible you can go into a curve or turn and get into an accident
@@Gary-s6r craziest thing is you can even get in to an accident driving yer CAR
@@dopeytripod hahahaha this was funny got to admit
I am 55 years old and I have a 2022 GSXR 750, and LOVE the bike.
I started riding on the street at 22 years old, so Old Man Wisdom will tell you that you WILL drop your first bike so wait before you get a bike with expensive bodywork.
Mine is blacked out, black rear sprocket, with a black and gold chain.
ECU flashed to the full M4 exhaust and now 139 rear wheel horsepower!
Braided steel brake lines probably DOUBLED my braking power, so I advise everyone on any bike to do that first, too.
I just put on a quick shifter This Last Week and it is sooooo awesome.
I never had a quick shifter before…
Corbin seat being made for me right now and should be on the bike before Christmas!!!
A present to help you with the algorithm.
I wish you all fun, safe trips.
Two Wheels Down…
Except when the bike pulls the front tire off the ground on its own, of course.
Not My Fault. I have all my weight over that tank and just cannot keep that tire on the earth sometimes.
My dad has the naked version of this bike and loves it, been thinking about getting this version and found this video helpful, thanks!
That’s awesome, glad I could help!
The GSXR is significantly faster than the GSXS. Both awesome and very reliable, love mine which I daily.
@@jacobp2445 its naked version that hears like this bike
I have it not same frame, brakes,suspension,power,clutch.
I think they have only 3 things same
Both suzuki, same capacity, and wheel size
Here’s my take on this subject, I’m a Harley Rider, but I have a soft spot for Sport bikes. My old man taught me how to ride on his R1 back in the day when I was 14, grant it, it was in a big stadium parking lot, and then we rode through side streets. Honestly you can be a beginner on any bike, whether it’s a scooter or a Hayabusa, the point is, you have to respect the machine and know your limitations. We don’t get paid like professional motorcyclists, so why ride like one? At the end of the day, you can get bit on a Harley just as much as you can on a sport bike, do what makes you happy, just be careful. I hope that helps. Nice GXSR-750 btw, that sounds sweet!
finally someone who gets the respect thing, ive been say ing that for years but your one of only a few that ive seen that say the same thing, respect bro.
@@c1fi364 💯 bro, 🤜 🤛
Harley riders are disrespectful imo. They start their bike that has no baffles in the exhaust, rev it up which is NOT needed! All while their neighbor with 2 little kids is trying to sleep.
I never bought a Harley because I don’t want to be in that type of group.
I actually like and respect my neighbor. Country boy, so only 1 neighbor near me.
I’m gonna start saving to buy my first bike for my birthday next year and I’m hoping it’s a gsxr750. Idc to start on a smaller bike and I keep telling everyone you can kill yourself on any bike and you just have to respect the bike and don’t rush the learning process.
@jman7655 I'm with you bro I'm looking to get a gsxr 750 this February first bike ever for the most part. Everyone's saying no but I've never listened to anybody lol
I had about a year of experience in the 80's on a 175 enduro as my only transportation, then around 2010 started on sportbikes. Started with the FZ6R, 8000 miles in 6 months, moved to GSXR600 for a year, GSXR750's for about a decade, then R1 for a couple of years. Now I am back on a GSXR600 on sticky Supercorsa tires. The FZ6R was a great learning bike, the 750 can actually bite you in the corners, had several slips getting too aggressive. The current R1 is a very premium and nice bike, but don't be fooled thinking the electronics save every mistake, you can slip the wheel and get step outs when hitting the throttle from a start on imperfect traction, and stock suspension settings can buck you off the saddle if hitting bumps at high speed. The GSXR600 goes plenty fast, sounds awesome, forgiving, it is a drivers machine. For me it has just enough power to entertain, but not too much to where you have to worry as much about slips. The top end hit on the 750 is really nice, but I personally don't need it, and I don't wheelie, so the 600 does everything I need.
I just got a '24 Ninja 500 (451cc). Only been riding for 2 months, never rode a motorcycle before I rode it off the lot. I do have some dirt bike experience on a 125cc. I have no regrets buying the Ninja because it's teaching me how to ride. I have to shift a lot more especially in lower gears. I'm getting used to shifting up and down and I've gotten a lot better at rev matching. I felt very comfortable on the bike from day 1. Easy to ride and handle. I already feel like I need a bit more power though so I'm really thinking the 750 is my next bike.
New sub here, I’m also in SC and looking to get a 750. Can’t wait to dive deeper into your channel Brodie, god bless and stay up 🙏🏿
Definitely appreciate you brotha! Ride safe when you do and likewise 💯🙏🏾
Dont. Learn to ride on slower, lighter naked bike. Starting from supersport is never a Good idea... Trust me I saw some bikes for my 17y of experience 😂
@@oktanskioktan9372what's your recommendation as an expert? and why is it dangerous to get a 750 or 1000 as a beginner?
@@ahmetmoses555 bike that you can handle with engine off, that you can pick up, with upright position and with less power 60-90HP. Enduro or naked bike. And go on track as fast as you can or get professional session even better.
@@oktanskioktan9372 thx for the tip , I'm 100kg and a bodybuilder 6.1 feet 😂😂 any other recommendations brand or anything o should take in consideration since not all bike are the same in terms of height or size ..
A is track B is rain. C is the default. But it is actually between A and B. You got power but it is not A mode.
Contrary to popular opinion beginners should probably not ride a race bike. Buy a used 250, get all your beginner mistakes out of the way like accidental throttle over bumps and dropping your bike, then get a race bike.
Can’t disagree with that 💯
my first bike was a 650, not crazy high in the revs like a 600 but powerful enough. i think just respect the bike, don't be careless. i went full throttle trying to pass this car while i was more inexperienced and almost got thrown off the road. even now i haven't tested the limits of my bike. i think whatever bike you get just slowly learn its limits
@@justobserving4862 agreed 💯
Then you upgrade to a bigger bike and think it will handle like a 250
@@misero6130 I didn't have any trouble switching at all. I think once you have enough experience riding is riding. It's the same principle as every kid who races, they start with a motorcycle that suits their capabilities and upgrade when they have the skill to do so.
theres only A and B mode. A mode is 100 % of power all the time. B mode just slows the throttle input when opening throttle. the top end speed is the same.
@@diegoaespitia you’re 100% right. I was thinking of my 2013 636. After making the video and watching it was like “dang, I said the wrong thing” lol thanks for clarifying!
I always tell people to go smaller. It's just safer advice. Like if someone is ready for a bigger bike the worst that happens is they switch bikes to a bigger one. But if someone not ready for a big bike gets one the worst that can happen is they lose a lot of money or get hurt or worse. I just hate to be the person who tells someone something that gets them hurt
I think u forget these mfs aren’t free most ppl don’t have 4-10k to toss around for bikes
@jackboi2saucy408 you buy a bike to learn on first then sell it to recupe the cost. If you buy used you can often get your money back. I know like 5 people who have done exactly this. Some who have even made money.
its not safer, you cant learn throttle control or disiplin on a 400, you need to learn on something big to be safe, you need smaller bikes to learn the foundation of slow speed manuevers.
@@c1fi364 That's just not true and now how the world works. That's like saying you wont learn anything at school because kindergarten is too easy and wont make your ready for collage.
The GSXR motor GSX bikes, are very reliable. 750 is enough and then some. Suzuki makes a solid product.
So true. People put 100,000 miles on these bikes
Nice bike man, I got a ‘21 ZX6R this past November for my first bike and I love it. Learned a lot and I’m a very confident rider now but still respecting the bike is key
Thanks man. The 21 ZX6R is really nice. It’s great that you’re still respecting the bike. That’s definitely important
one of my fave vids ive seen on dis bike love it bro
@@beanguap thanks bro! Definitely appreciate it 💯
Beautiful bike. I wish I fit on one. I sat on one before buying my ZX4RR. I have short legs and short arms. I even lowered my ninja by about an inch to be more confident on. No regrets though. I'm getting that sport bike feel and can use all the power most of the time. The GSX-R 750 still was what I really wanted but I'm happy.
How tall are u?
@@ZahMell I'm 5"6' with a 28" inseam.
@@lovingmylifeasIage6741 I’m 5’8 156 ibs you think I’ll be good for this bike
I’m 5’8 156 ibs what’s ur thoughts with me on this bike
@@ZahMell If you are talking about the ZX4RR it would fit you perfectly. I was going to get tank grips but my knees don't even touch the tank. It hits right below it.
play with the bike suspension settings......once properly set you you it makes riding a way better experience
That’s the one thing I haven’t done yet. Definitely will do
I ride for 5 years had 2 bikes
Ninja 400 and gsxs 750 now
Made 100k miles or 160k kilometeres with both bikes
Ride a lot of track days and twisty roads
But never ride a bike without abs, should i buy gsxr 750 next?
I like the bike dont like that it dont have basic safe systems abs/tcs
I had period of time that i ride bikes everyday to work now i dtive car bike only for weekends now
@@Ark86125 Due to the bikes you own now, the 750 will be awesome for you to own. It will be a complete different experience compared to the bikes you have now. I say go for it!
I don't know man, I'm a true beginner(never rode anything other than a 50cc scooter before) and decided to start on a Suzuki GSR600 which is like a naked detuned GSXR600 and the thing scares the shit out of me, GSXR750 is a very serious bike. Depends from person to person I guess.
Hey do you think a Gsx 750 ( If ridden in C mode ) Is a good beginner bike for a college kid ( denver ) ?
Great question! It can be, as long as you respect that bike and go easy on the throttle. Hope this helps!
@@chillwithkea following that logic any bike can be a beginner bike, i believe everyone should start on a 300 and a 650 at most
@@bobbertyt2468throw a 450 supermoto into that convo. good first bike that still has a “fun” factor to it. Great platform to learn fundamentals on as well.
Keep grinding brother
Likewise brotha 💪🏾💪🏾
Finally a bike guy I can get behind! Cant wait to watch more bro. Keep it one 2 brother.
I definitely appreciate that brotha, likewise!
I’m 58. Was just looking into my first Harley. A 2015 so frail slim for 10 g’s and 6000 miles. But the guy had a lien and woukd not let me go with him to pay it off and get the title right in my name. So today, I’m off to Seymour’s to buy my first brand new GSXR 750. Guess I’m not ready for the noise machine.
Too loud anyways. Definitely to slow!
@@richjustrich8043 major congrats on the 750! Sucks that the guy wouldn’t get things going to get the title to you. You’ll definitely enjoy this bike
So pretty, what state are you in, I bought one and learned, as long as you learn how to brake, you’ll be ok. I’m old, and learned, the sales guy told me, this isn’t a beginner bike, my brother told me I was gonna die, the other day, the grocery checker asked what I rode, I told him a 750 gsxr, he said wow, I told him, if I could ride him, I could ride the motorcycle, he laughed, ok I am a woman, and it’s fun to ride
@@julieherbst4445 this is awesome Julie! And I’m in South Carolina. Yeah, it’s that good weather (for the time being) lol but ultimately, as long as you can control your throttle and learn as much as possible in a parking lot and preferably learn with someone. You should be fine
I have a black 08 750 17k original miles.i rides like a dream.
Great stuff. What year bike is it. I assume it’s a 25 because you mention the three driving modes. Is that a custom paint job?
@@jimnorris4600 thanks! surprisingly, it’s a 2015. This body style ran from 2015 to present. As far as paint, yes. The previous owner had a custom paint job done. The bike used to be blue prior
W video, i had a 2002 CBR 600 F4i but it was old, want something new
This is not a beginner bike.
i’m 5’11 158 and so just wondering if this bike would be too heavy for me as something to start with i had an old 550 cc honda dirt bike but idk how it compares
Great video keep up the good work what’s your camera set up bro…
Thanks man. Go pro hero 11 with media mod and ND filters
@@chillwithkea Uw welcome bro…
first ever comment but genuinely curious i’m 6’9 260 ish and wanting to get a motorcycle soon is there anything you could recommend that would be a good beginner bike i’m going for my permit the day i can much appreciated.
I appreciate your comment! With your height and weight, you’ll definitely need something bigger. Any 1000cc sportbike and cruiser for sure. When you take your motorcycle road test, you’ll want something smaller for the turns but after that, you may want a Kawasaki ZX-14 or a Suzuki Hayabusa. You’ll feel really comfortable on those bikes for sure 💯
MT07 is the answer. im 6’6 240 and have room on the seat left. you dont want a 1000cc sport bike as your first bike for the same reason you dont want a new luxury car for your first car.
I plan on getting a bike next year, and I have prior experience driving manual and a little experience with dirt bikes. I’m looking to get a 600, but im also really interested in a 750. If I get one I won’t end up getting the other, do you have any thoughts?
@@ib5990 with you having experience in dirt bikes, you will be fine. Of course dirt bikes are completely different but the principles are the same. If you get the 750 just RESPECT IT and take it to a parking lot. Really learn the bike for sure!
@@chillwithkea absolutely bro, already know these things aren’t toys I won’t be pushing any limits for a while
Hey quick question. You got any tips on buying used gsxr 750? Is there any things i should watch out for?
Just your normal things like brake pads, see if she’s been dropped, and how the tires look. If the bike has the cat deleted but feels sluggish, the previous owner never got the ECU flashed. That’s the main thing to look for. Make sure the oil isn’t too dark as well
I’m planning on getting a YZ125 soon and I’ve been on a 250 dirtbike, when I’m old enough to drive I plan on getting a gsxr750
That’s awesome!! 😎
@@chillwithkea yeah too bad i gotta wait 3-4 years, (im 13 right now) and then i have to convince my parents that its safer than they think 😂
@@QuackCrac my advice is learn as much as you can on the smaller steps and slowly work your way up man! Take it easy on the throttle and take the time to learn something new about riding often.
@@chillwithkea yeah ive taken some classes from a motorcross pro ive learned all the basics already, just saving up for the yz now
@@QuackCrac awesome, you’re on the right path 💯
first bike was an still is a 750 love it fr..

It’s a great platform.
@@BstinOgsxr750 awesome man. How do you like the 750?
@@chillwithkea it’s great. Power of a 1000cc with the weight of a 600.
@@chillwithkea are you going to get an ecu flash?
@@BstinOgsxr750 I definitely need to get one. It has a lag since I cut off the cat

Shout out to my Moncks Corner cousins! Yo man nice vid! Got my raw race replica 750 on the way! How are the brakes? I heard that the Brembo blocks are hindered by the master cylinder. Ride Safe!
yes so i just convinced my dad to get a sportbike since we're gonna share his motorcycle, i mean he's in his 50s and its propably not gonna be very comfortable for him, but off the bat i told him its either gonna be an r6 or a gixxer 600/750. hope i don't die on this thing lol (ps im like 15 with no license) :>
@@mahdikharrat2216 awesome, my advice is take it easy and respect the bike. Go easy on the throttle and learn as much as you can man. Congrats on the new bike in advance!
Been looking to buy either a 2024 gsxr1000r or 750. I really like them both but can't decide. Any advice?
I appreciate your help!
@@israellarranaga8392 not a problem! The 750 is plenty of power for the street. It’s gonna depend on what you want to do. If you’re gonna be roll racing definitely go 1000. But most people will get the 1000 to hold onto for years. That way, they don’t have to keep upgrading. Lastly, it will strongly depend on your experience level.
Thank you for the response👍. Stay safe, ride safe!
@@israellarranaga8392 anytime, likewise 💯💪🏾
I just got a 98 never been on one and dam near pissed my pants from a first gear ripp and I stalled like every stop 😭longest 2 hours and really dam fun. playing with fire fosho
I learned how to ride on my brothers rsv4 and I got a gsxr 750 😂
Do you think the Gaxr750 is suitable for someone who's 6’4 175?
Yes, look up Gixxer Brah. He is 6'5" and your weight. The 750 is an extremely comfortable sport bike and you can ride it all day without your wrist or back hurting.
@@jonasrueda4195Appreciate you! I'm going to check him out now.
Good stuff man.
Definitely appreciate it man!
I started in a fireblade and after a month I got a gsxr 1000 the fireblade was wrapped around a tree and it scared me so I went with the gixxer instead
@@CollinMac96 you know, a lot of people have told me that they the fireblades scare them. What is it about the fireblade that makes it scary?
@@chillwithkea Hondas in general are known to have twitchy fueling from the factory. Not sure if it’s a fueling issue or what. The gsxr is more delayed so easier to manage. Also the fireblade is as uncomfortable as the r1. I started riding about 15years ago.
@@CollinMac96 ooooh I gotchu that’s so true. I rode a BMW S1000rr and a CBR 1000rr. Both 2018 model years. The BMW was a smooth chill ride. The CBR, I barely used the throttle because it feel terrifying. That’s wild fr
Doesn't it have QuickShifter? I saw you using clutch to shift up gears.
@@SauloMogi no it doesn’t have a quick shifter. I’ve been thinking about added one
@@chillwithkea Sad
@@chillwithkea I definitely would recommend unless u just wanna learn your bike fr and shift yourself but I’d add it and a GP just makes more sense in my opinion
@@iThrill I might take you up on that. I’ve ridden motorcycles with quickshifters and it’s hard to go back afterwards
with your weight, did you have to adjust the pre-load?
Nope not at all. Rides perfect normal height
Every bike you get you should adjust your suspension to your riding style and weight. Find a shop that tunes suspension. It takes them about 30 minutes and only cost about $75.

Clearly has no idea what they are talking about.
There's someone in your left blindspot the whole video. 😮😂
How irritating is that! 🤦🏾♂️😂😂😂😂
@@chillwithkea yeah that must've felt like someone was watching you. 🙂
Nice video though. I started on a BMW R1100S. Probably too big. My Moto has been that the bike needs to be big/fast to get you out of trouble. Like when your are next to a truck, you need to be able to get out of that position.
@@darthzyl definitely did ha some people definitely do it on person 🤦🏾♂️
And see, that’s exactly how I look at it. That’s why I sold my z400. Great bike but felt underpowered ha
The gsxr750 isn’t a good beginner bike. If you want to be a good competent rider for life start on something small and get good on that. Learn the clutch, brakes, accelerator, cornering, riding in traffic etc on something low powered & comfortable ride the ass off it then and only then get a 600/750.
This is all facts

Fantastic bike. Arguably one of the best. Terrible starter bike. Full Stop.
Horrible advice for a 600, 750 or 1000 as a first bike, the comments are appalling, why would you start on something like that? Riders like that are the ones that ride the big bikes slow, never reaching the full potential, I see it everyday, guys on R1s, S1000RR, Ducatis, they can't even do a proper u turn or stop correctly
All depends on your respect for the monster you ride. That’s all.
@@Dah-Dude all facts 💯
Answer to the title... No its not a good first bike lol
Hi alex ...it only depends on your ability and how you will respect the bike
Why not
@@Emmanuelputunoi
Respect the bike are true words. It’s not heavy and is a good beginner bike, but only if you are a well balanced person. Respect the bike are true words.
This powerfull 750 is for beginner? XD for beginners are 500cc's not almost supersport 😂
Rodriguez Susan Young Richard Taylor Paul
A super sport is almost never a good beginner bike.
Any good recommendations for the viewers?
@@chillwithkea Something with far less power and more relaxed geometry. An SV650 is a good starter bike that you can grow into a bit. Want more aggression? Convert to clip-ons or throw on other aftermarket bars.
Other similar bikes like the Ninja 650 and CB500 are also good for beginners and give a little more sportiness out of the box.
