I also purchased the 2023 GSX-R1000R as my first bike, just respect the bike while you learn,don't be stupid.
Bro why tho... Why a litre bike at the beginning when you can start on a lower cc one.
Anyway happy riding brother
@Bubbles my cousin also started on a 1000, he has since then upgraded to a Hayabusa.
You will have slower learning progression. And fundamentally won't properly learn how to ride. That is unless u learned on smaller bikes first and this 1000 is just your first street bike
@@Tony.Bennett340 everyone's learning curve is different bro....
For me a guy who never ride a motorcycle
I started on 300CC it was so fun i learned a lot
Now I'm planning to get 600CC
Don't let your ego control you even if you think you are a good driver
Stay safe you all
I’ve been riding since 2000 I’ve ridden everything. My personal bikes are 600/750 I still can’t push them to the limits. In a straight line yeah. But braking and twisties totally different animals.
The issue with 600 is that it has no torque unless you are revving the balls out of it. I would rather get a triple or a big twin.
That’s what makes 600cc fun to ride on twisties or track,
@@alejandrotobienne8220 your doing just fine twistys are for professionals not even worth it bro your doing fine just the way you are ...stay safe
@@driftx2 what bout 750?
I started on a Kawasaki Z1000, never had an issue. Be mature. Be responsible. The power is there if you need it, but you don't have to use it. Stay in control.
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 ✌🏾✌🏾
I’m looking at 600 as my first. But my question is how do you handle highway bumps at speed? I feel it will unsettle the bike as I try to turn and hit a bump. I’ve driven plenty of manual cars (might sound stupid) but I get the jist of how to ride based off of that. Throttle control counter steering
They let u guys drive motorcycles without licenses first in the us or something?
@@Goodyboi throttle control on a car vs a bike is totally different. Hitting the gas too hard in a car it just jerks forward while the bike can stand up and if you don’t know how to control it then you’re hitting the floor.
@@upload2137 you can get a permit by taking a computer test that lets you ride for 6 months then you can take a driving test you get the endorsement or to save all that time you pay $50 to take a two day course and if you pass you get your endorsement then
@@rufusmorris-pw7ds 🤣 unsafe af letting ppl take a computer test to drive 1000 cc bikes. U need a full on driving license here will take some time
My first bike was a brand new GSX-R1000 and like others say, just respect the bike. Plus I chose it because of the modes starting at C and when I became more comfortable I eventually went to A
What was a big issue for you when you started on 1000? And how big of difference is C from A?
@@Genesis_twitch_ For me, my biggest issue was confidence. I was intimidated by the bike as I listened to others talk about the power of the it. I respected it but it is possible to be so cautious to the point of making unnecessary mistakes as a result of not applying enough throttle or over braking. 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.
Have you ever dropped your bike ever since you purchased it ? In C mode or A ?
that's nice and all, but respecting it will do nothing if you don't know what you're doing. you stalled it on a busy roadway, and now a car rear ended and now you have a broken neck or spine or worse. oops, you didn't learn throttle control and lowsided in a corner at 50 mph, hitting a fence post or falling to your death off a cliff.
@@fatbongripz4207 I agree. I started riding at age 30 something so I was late. I think if I started really young maybe it wouldn’t have been good for me. Either way I had my mind set on being on two’s but looking back on it, I’m glad I got it out my system really fast (pun intended)
I basically started on a 1000 as well. This is my second year having it. If you're mature enough and can control yourself you will be fine. Also spending time riding by yourself helps a lot as well.
Have you dropped it any time between those two years owning it ? Or when you first had got it ?
Nice knowin ya! but seriously, anybody who has zero experience riding a motorcycle has no business being on a 1000. A friend of mine sold his R1 for cash, buyer dropped it after leaving his driveway. he was dead 4 days later, his mother asked the seller why he sold a motorcycle to her now dead son. i have 10 years of experience riding 300's on the dirt.. i'm 28 and i got a R3 because i have become accustomed to riding with full throttle. i know the way i ride, the only thing keeping me from going past 110 MPH is the size of my engine. if i got a 600cc i'd be dead in a week
@@fatbongripz4207 You sound silly bro. Just because someone died on it doesn't mean a more mature and responsible person can't overcome such a "dangerous machine".
@@eduardogarcia-mh1bl Nope I haven't dropped it. I just got my Ninja Z H2 SE last weekend. The key is to just take your time and really pay attention to gravel on the street that gets a lot of riders.
@@fatbongripz4207 Cool then I should be just fine on my zh2 that I just bought.
I love this, I started on a 2000 Cali smog delete 4 to one yosh Busa! Loved every second of it. MORE POWER! I fly an AT-602 for a living now. Don't live in fear. Live with RESPECT.
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.
riding courses will definitely help, but you're riding ability increases very slowly on a 1000. with my R3, i'm developing cornering skills much faster than you because i don't have to worry about throttle control. i regularly pass 600 and 1000 riders in the corners, they pass me in the straights, i pass them again in the corners.
@@fatbongripz4207lmao you want to be patted on the back so bad for starting small don’t you?
@@AV5oh He keeps spamming this nonsense all over.
@@tbewriting8028 He has to compensate by making himself feel better to justify his little scooter purchases
@@fatbongripz4207 throttle control is easy tho
On these new bikes with all those modes it actually allows you to start on the 1000cc... But like most guys have been saying in the comment section,start with whatever feels comfortable to you. Just be careful y'all, we've lost alot of good riders on the roads
Dope video, I also started off on a GSXR 1000R as my first bike and I’ve loved every second of it
You’re simply amazing man!🔥.. you remind me how it feels to be free!
I’m glad to give you that sense of freedom ! Stay blessed 🙏🏽
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
B is totally right, doing the u turn and cornering even the "8" corners requires skills
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.
Great video. Gixxers have always been my favorite bikes. Started on dirt bikes and my first street bike was an 87’ GSX-R 750. Several bikes later and I’m actually enjoying the hell out of a 21’ MT-09.
My first bike was a 1986 Gsxr-750 what a dangerous bike that was looking back haha. Was almost 25 years ago.
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 TH-cam 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.
Literally what I tell people. It takes so much determination. I started on a Duacti Hypermotard 939 and there were times I wanted to quit but I wanted it so bad I pushed through and I love the bike. It takes maturity, respect and determination. 1000000%
Yes, it is. My first bike 12 years ago was an 07 R1, and it was a blast.
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
Its a feeling...can't described it.
But I would say to a newbie to start small because they are not me.
Man bro i just got my first bike it’s a 2nd gen hayabusa probably same thing you had going on I got a good deal only reason I got it im lowkey scared bro😂😂
I’m 1 min into the video and I just want to say that I’m going to continue watching this channel. 👍
Best video of the day, you just got a new subscriber
Beautiful bike brother!
Congratulations man 🙌
New rider and my first was an 2nd Gen Hayabusa. A year later and now it’s getting built into an 300+ war machine. Anything is possible.
I started on Gen 3 busa , I’ve been doing fine , too speed so far 150mph , and in my city they drive like crap . But it’s takes good mentally not to push the limits of the bike because you will never master the big power bikes , my take was not wasting money buying slow bike I would out grow in no time . Plus I drove my first few rides with the power band on 3 so way less power . Just now getting to power band 1 mode . Great video he hit nail on the head ! Suzuki nation!!
I love the sound of that bike! MAN! 💪🏾. But yeah that is important. Comfortability and Respect.
Happy birthday buddy an congratulations on the bike it's a nice one💪🏿🙏🏿
my first bike after passing my test 2 months ago was Suzuki sv1000s street fighter convert and i love it
I got a ZX14 as my 1st bike but I've rode other people's 1000cc bikes. Like w anythg else u have to respect the power. I've had mine 5yrs n haven't went down,by the Grace of God of course. Good luck n enjoy ur bike
So you started on a dirt bike, not a 1000cc.
Yes please tell em
Right, HUGE difference!
It’s definitely possible you just need to ride within your limits and be responsible and mature I started with and currently still ride my 03 R1
First bike ever was a cbr1000 no dirt bike experience either the 1000 was just a better buy at the time so I went for it when I got it I took it around the block a couple times everyday for a week then started riding to work I did ok never dropped the bike I respected it and stayed within my skill level so it’s definitely possible
same exact thing for me first bike cbr 1000rr started just driving on my street
Damn thats a sick bike bro 🔥 that colours dope as well
Starting off on dirt bikes is a big advantage. You learn throttle control. I started off on a mini bike when i was a kid then got dirt bikes in the early 70's and raced motocross all through high school. I was a big kid 6'2" 245lbs. 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.
Took me 26 seconds in to understand why I didn't start on a powerful bike. I want to go for a relaxing ride and come home safe..
I'm planning on getting a 04/05/06 cbr 1000rr. Never rode a bike in my life but I think I'm mature enough to take a very measured approach while learning. I've had my fair share of close calls as a result of pushing the envelope just being young and dumb
Bro go for it. Like you said just be mature and take your time. I’ve never rode before but this year I’m getting a R6 600 and can’t wait.
Im a fairly experienced rider (3yrs) i ride an 08 CBR1000RR started on a grom. I personally think its a bad idea to start on a liter bike u may have throttle control and be fine but you won't gain experience if you're scared of the bike which u will be if its your first time
@@untouchable1511 thats a very fair point im riding a 400 right now and even though i know i can push my bike to the limits a liter bike is ALOTTT of bike, yes people can learn but if you can only push that bike 40% of what its capable of, then your not gonna be learning as fast as you could on a bike you can learn on AND push the limit on and be comfortable! very good point you have
Cool vibe , stay safe brother 💯🤙🏽
Good shit, just subscribed. I live near you. I hear all the crazy revs at night and wonder who is ripping at 2 am in the morning. Now I know. 😂. I’ve Only been riding for a year . Looking forward to your videos.
If You used to ride dirt bikes then thats what You started on. You already had experience, alot of people would not have been able to jump right to a 1000cc like You. Beautiful bike by the way!
Looks like the backroads of Ontario. Great video, thanks for sharing your thoughts.
Things sick bud. Love the color too
My god warm weather can’t get here fast enough 😂 great video.
Sheesh be safe fam! That shit must be exhilarating
I started riding a motorcycle at the age of 4 years old and i am now 59 and still riding.
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.
this made me smile :)
3 days after my MSF course, I bought a 2014 gen 2 busa lol. 3 months later, traded it in for my current 22 gen 3 busa
Awesome content keep it coming 😊
You can start on anything, what matters more is what you will progress the most on.
thats a foolish comment
@@0397rb bro i mean if you know yourself then yea ofc i think you cant control yourself as much as him
@@0397rb in what way? What he said was true, u could get on a 1000 or a 250 as a beginner but at the end of the day you’re gonna progress more on the lighter, lower easier positioned, smooth bike without worrying about giving it too much throttle.
So it’s not about “can u start on a 1000” it’s more so “should you start on a 1000”
And this varies, it depends on size and experience. It doesn’t always have to be a little 125 or 250, it just depends on your experience and what you’ll progress most on.
Put an idiot with no knowledge on a 1000 it’ll end bad
On the other hand put a patient, self controlled and mature person with basic knowledge of riding on a 1000 and its somewhat acceptable, as long as it’s done right.
*Point being, people are different, and not everyone needs to start on the same bike, but there’s good and bad options for everyone, but at the end of the day, the most progression for most people will come from a smaller bike, but “most” people isn’t everyone.*
@@xel... who knows themselves as a beginning rider?
why would a 5.foot 120 pound person start on 650cc or 900cc does that make sense in general..or should one start low to get to know themselves and then go up, which is the smartest and most logical
@@mikeadz1 point being he was wrong.
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. My last sweetie was a K5
start on whatever bike you feel comfortable with the most important thing is to respect the power !!!
Finally a legit video in this case. Lot of them tell that's a "suicide" no, that's not. I started with Panigale V2, of course I ride lot of bikes before but none of them wasn't my own bike so, it's not a big deal as everyone talking about. It's just more powerful and you have think twice everything on road till you feel confident on bike. Also respect to power is something, try to understand what's your bike telling you, you'll get it one day just not in day one. Peace
thats a nice bike i was looking at that in a shop the other day
@@tohmhe Panigale is a queen. Definetly recommended. It's hard to change it when you used it. Honestly only thing I can upgrade my bike is a Panigale again but V4S
is the heat an issue for you?
@@abrahamlee1774 At first you may feel a warmth compared to other bikes, but not too much. Apart from that, it can get a little hot at low rpm, but it's not at a serious thing
@@charbelhv what are the temperatures like where you’re at if you don’t mind me asking?
Thanks for the vid. Im going for it.
Im a Kawasaki fan, but your bike is so freaking sick. I love the color scheme.
Ofc it is, my first bike was a gsxr 1000 k2. Had it for 1 summer, now im riding a flashed Z H2 with a full exhuast. its such a beast, but its 100% controllable.
Nice bike!❤ be safe bro!
I started on a gsxr1100h back in the day, as long as you understand you dont turn that throttle until you get the experience to handle it
True story! I walked into Del Amo motor sports in Redondo Beach and bought Gsxr1000 and when they bought it to the back I ask if they could show me how to ride it. The look on everyone’s face 😮. They was like “you don’t know how to ride? And you bought this bike?” Lol how about some guys waiting in the service area showed me how to get it in gear and a little tutorial. Been riding every since. Every time I went for service they were surprised the bike didn’t come in on a tow truck. They actually had a bet how long it be before I totaled it lol
you can absolutely 'start' on anything you want really. i just started on a 600 3 months ago...but i understood the power of it, understood the twitchy throttle, etc. etc. etc...i honestly think it depends 99% on the individual themself, and their aptitude.
My brother recently started on a 1000cc. As long as you’re responsible it’s not a problem.
depends on age and maturity, smallest cc bike ive ever had is my current mt 09, as long as you respect (and fear) it a little at least, you should be okay, you can just get a beefy adv bike if, those have pretty linear acceleration, super easy to handle
Nice wheels champ✊🏻💯, my first dirtbike was also a 125cr. Now i want to put my big boy pants and was thinking i needed to start with a 750 (GSXR is one of my favorites), but now I'mma consider a 1k. Thanks, and i just subscribed🤙🏼.
ive grown up with dirtbikes and then started on a ninja 250 for 3 years and now looking at an 07 gsxr 1000r. its one of my favorite looking bike. im 5'11, 140lbs btw. ive seen reviews of 600s and having not have a low range power band and really have to get the bike screaming. 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.
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 👍🏽
Colors on that are 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Cbr 929rr was my first bike 14 years ago, no regrets
I started on a CBR/Fireblade 900RR. It’s all about proper training, maturity and respect for the bikes power.
holy wish my K6 1k had modes when i first started. Have to respect the bike till got better. Now i can wheelie and knee down on turns. 10 years of riding here now.
Got a 2024 Hayabusa as my first bike. But then again I'm 31, got loads of traffic experience, don't care about going fast. I just like the bike and it fits me great, 6 ft 225 lbs
Is ur TC light on all the time when the TC is off? I got the same bike and I ride on A4 only cuz I don’t want it to wheelie just yet. A-10 was absolutely crazy. The bike like u said felt like it cuts off. Seemed more dangerous than letting it eat cuz ur expecting it to go and it just stumbles. So I turned it down progressively. I’m at 4 now and it’s pretty clean n
My first bike.. Ducati Multistrada 1200S from 2014.. It doesnt matther if its a 300c or a 1200cc.. all is in you throttle.. and I love the Multistrada and would recommend it to anyone who is looking into i bigger bike.
rain riding, tank slappers, cornering properly, throttle control, u-turns - things you will never learn effectively when starting with a 1000.
Once I heard 6’7 my brain said you right you got it 😂 start on whatever you want. I’m 6’3 I started on a MT-07 the first year then moved to a 2020 MT-10
I want this exact bike what year and spec this and colour
personally i feel like if youre used to riding dirtbikes or anything with a twist throttle/clutch you can hop on any size motorcycle and be relatively safe until youre comfortable with the power.
Great content brother
I am starting on a 2007 zx10 just take it easy on the bike it can always go fast don’t rush the progress. Don’t lesson to these people believe in yourself is better then buying one every time you feel like is not fast enough.
Not being stupid and selfish is a good explanation to alot of things..
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
Im currently starting on an R3 at the moment, getting myself comfortable before going for the R1
Yes it i. The first bike i bought was cbr1000rr. As long as you respect the bike and its power and not try to ride above your comfortable limit you’ll be good. Having the tourque of a 1k in traffic is awesome for passing. Plus a 1k feels a little more planted and a little less twitchy then a 600 feels.
therealdealoneill tappin in at 77.8k subscribers bro lets see the climb
I love sportbikes, but this gsxr 1000 is it comfortable? I want it for the city and ocasionally a long trip. I saw some videos about the gixxer 750 too and everybody says it's a comfortable bike, but the 1000cc gixxer is it too?
Thanks for the amazing video as always and keep riding safe yall
"Im trying to chill out..."
-proceeds to go over 150mph-😂😂😂😂😂❤❤❤❤❤❤
Oh snap you tall 6’7 sheeesssshhhh 🙌🏼
I really Appreciate these videos, question? Where do I get a smoked headlight like yours on this video? A link or direction would be appreciated thanks so much!
I can’t even hate on you for your choice. I started on a Suzuki TL1000R V-Twin.
Just take it easy and be safe.
The first 1000cc bike I rode was a 2008 KTM 990 Super Duke, me and my buddy were huge Ktm fans and he handed me the keys and said “go try it!”
Did he say he was 6’7” !?
Yes sir...that bike is a fisher price toy to him
You wouldn't of asked if you didn't already know. Hate that dumb shit
Man in a friggin foot shorter :(
His voice tho, sounds like he’s 5’5 🙈 🤣 (no offense.)
Maybe it’s the weather 🤷🏻♂️🙃
I’m just saying, one would never guess : ))
Just got this bike I love it and most definitely worth it
My first bike i learned on was a 20th anniversary 2005 gsx-r600. Then went to a yamaha fz-07 and then moved to a indian scout bobber. Recently sold the indian. Next bike Gsx-r1000 these bikes are so comfortable compared to the others. Thanks for the video but you crazy 🤣
Man i got a 750cc honda x-adv for a first bike. I can’t wait to learn and enjoy the bike.
If you started on dirt bikes then you didn't really start riding motorcycles on a thousand cc now did you? Dangerously miss leading
Street biking and dirt biking are not the same thing
Started on a 2001 RC51, but I had a kx125 growing up
I started on an 03 Honda CBR 954rr against the recommendations of my friends but I was responsible, safe, and took my time knowing the limitations of the bike
My dream is this motorcycle
I started on a 07 r1 just ride ur own ride you will I repeat you are bound to mess up one day ride safe only reason I started on a litter bc they were running the Same price as the 600s and got a killer deal on it with low miles
Glad I’m stumbled across this video. Looking to get a 600cc as my first. But my question is, how you do guys handle highway bumps at speed? Specially when you’re trying the turn? I feel like it will unsettle the bike. It’s my only fear. I’m like 6’1 180lbs
I'm 5'2 100lbs and I got a cbr 600rr as my first legal bike. I've been riding dirt bikes on the street since I was 17 (60cc, 85cc, 100cc and 250cc). A 600cc is not too heavy so I'd recommend you go for the 600 as your first.
@@_francisco_ How do you handle the highway bumps tho?
@@_francisco_ thanks for the reply
@@Goodyboi I haven't ridden on the highway yet. I bought the motorcycle as soon as it got cold outside. I'm sure as long as you keep a light grip on the bars/clip ons you will be fine.
Sport bikes have great suspension … plus the way physics work a motorcycle wants to do nothing but go straight and where the front wheel is pointed ... the faster you go the more stable the bike is… I’ve hit bumps at 110 mph on a bend turn on the freeway and it didn’t make a difference . It’s something you can’t really explain but can only experience … my simple answer is motorcycles are AMAZING MACHINES!
I grew up riding dirt bikes starting from when I was 10, up to when I was 19. I'm 26 now, and considering getting a street bike. My friends have let me ride their bikes from time to time. First real street bike I ever rode was a 1300, then I rode my neighbor's ZX-14, and then my friend's Ninja 900 bored to a 1000. I obviously know how to control a clutch and throttle, so I never crashed or anything, but these bikes seem to have more power than I'll even need lol. I still think I should get an R6, but I don't wanna get bored too fast if I can probably ride an R1. What do you think?
I love that headlight conversion, what company makes that, cause I’m pretty sure you didn’t buy it like that
Ride like u ride just be safe.
Everyone learns different
🎉 happy birthday 🎈
I love this bike 🤷♂️🫶💪🏻
I’m planning on getting the 2023 GSXR 1000R as my first bike.
