- Can you start on a 600cc motorcycle? One of you guys asked in the comment section this morning if you could buy a 600cc sport bike as a first bike. Well the way ask a motorcycle guy works is you ask, and I give you my honest opinion!
I think that it is best to start on a small motorcycle if you can, however if you think you are responsible enough to accept the risk of starting with a performance motorcycle, then that is a decision you can make! I don't recommend them for a beginner motorcycle, but it can be done if you are careful.
If you do choose a 600cc sport bike as your first motorcycle, please be careful!
Leave more questions, and I do videos for more answers!

Dude that was right on the money. Thanks for taking the time out your day and answering my question. I’m definitely gonna take into consideration your standpoint.
All good man, like I said you can definitely do it, you just have to be careful and understand it's riskier, totally up to you!
Alex Simmons again, thanks for answering my question. Ended up buying a 2015 Ninja 300 SE for a little over $3000. Only 1000 miles on it. Dealer had it priced at $4250. Talked him down and even got him to throw in a cover and helmet if I promised to buy it that day. Can’t wait to put my personal touch on it with some mods.
Hell yeah man!!! Super excited for you!!!! Have fun and keep the rubber side down!
I started on 1000cc supersports, first year was nerve wrecking and I was constantly terrified of the bike, now - used to it and just having fun :)
🤙
finally the response of a sales specialist without any emotional involvement!
I just hope it helped hahaha
this is the most sensible answer on that age old question
Thanks Kimmy! Sorry for the delay, takes a while to get through comments haha
Interesting channel,very detailed!Im definitely subscribing.
Thank you men . Really appreciate you
This answered all my questions thanks
Great video, smart advice
Just my opinions from experience, thanks Charlie!
Awesome video bro... good info
Thanks for watching!
Well explained video
Was mine! And would say its on your mindset...got to respect the bike! And never forget how quick the bike can get you in trouble....if ya forget for a second if ya lucky you will be buying new plastics!!!
Today’s R3 or Ninja 300 or 400 You get the look better than ok power GREAT handling and for about $4,500-5,500!! That’s my opinion
Good video + nice hat
Haha thanks!
2020 /// First bike ever, Kawasaki KLX300R... First street bike ever, Suzuki SV650 (2018 NO ABS) -So far so good, love them both. Plan on keeping them forever.
Awesome, ride safe my friend!
Alex -- what cap are you wearing in this vid? You've worn it before, I think, and it looks really sharp. And yeah...you can start on a 600 if you're careful and use your head...remember I jumped from a 49cc Vespa to the Kawi 2K after not riding a motorcycle for over 35 years! (Yes, I did take an MSF course...I'm crazy, but I'm not stoopid!)
Haha yeah Vespa to Vulcan 2k is a bit extreme, but sounds like it's working out ;-). I think that is my Victory Octane hat
So for a 6”5’ 280lb guy what would recommend as a first bike not really into the Harley’s tho
Great video man !! 600cc is too crazy for me,what do you think about honda CBR500r, is it good for a begginer ?
It’s actually good it doesn’t have as much power as an inline-4 engine. But you might wanna consider Ninja 400. It just depends, best thing you could do is to go to a dealership and sit on the bike. Just try to feel it.
Sorry if I come across stupid I have been putting off doing my bike test for years and feel now I really want to do it I dont like the idea of getting a 125 as they cost more than most bigger bikes then the thought of selling it again I've had car licence for 17 years I'm level headed n not an idiot who will hold throttle wide open everywhere I go the bike I like is the cbr 600 so is that an ok bike to start with I will respect the bike and power and be extremely careful
I'm a noob and I just bought a stock 2002 r6 the bike never been drop and it look fresh from a dealer it is a sexy bike for sure with no scratches
How’d it go?
@@youngahole9893 Fr how did it go?
i used to ride small 100cc bike and now ride 150cc bike. now i'm planing to buy ninja 250 but there is a friend of mine who want to upgrade his bike to z1000 and give me very very good price for kawasaki z650. i'm still thinking i should or should not buy since he rides it just a few hundred km and he offer me even cheaper than new ninja 250.
THIS IS TRUE...
Good Day, I’m 6.3ft tall and 220 pounds , I need a good super sports bike for tall people .
Kindly choose between S1000rr, Honda fire blade 1000, zx10r, GSXR1000rr , and R1M .
Hmmm. Hi sir alex, good day! Im thinking to buy a 600cc. But im not a beginner rider. . I am riding 125cc everyday. What would you recommend as my first BIG BIKE? ✌️ Thanks. Im inlove with 4cyclinder big bikes. I already experience ninja400, w800, and z1000 but in a limited time only. Ive handled it properly. 😉✌️ What would you recommend that is more user friendly?
You wanna start people off on smaller bikes so they can come back and get something bigger lol. At the end of the day its all business for you. But AT THE SAME TIME! I get where you're coming from!
What’s the best starter cruiser?
I am 19 years old and considering a aprilia rs 660 do you think it would be beneficial because of all of the different rider modes/ads/wheelie control ?
Is a yamaha r6 12 good for a first bike im not sure if it’s considered super sport my dad use to have one that we rode on but it was a regular 600cc would that be okay for a first bike or is it still considered a super sport
What would you consider a 600 like a 2006 Suzuki Katana GSXF?
Question on the 600 CCR I woke up this morning and seen app for the fuel injection the fuel pump or the pump is gone does that stop the bike from starting
How about 2011-12 can-am spyder rt? Is it a good bike? Im 29 and I'm starting to back pains.
The question is I started with a 125cc but it wasnt even a sportbike but I still have an idea of how dangerous it is compared to a car. I am responsable and I really want a r6 that will be 35kw for two years do you think it is possible
How bout Im 255lbs, and live in Colorado, where every dealer tells me the smaller bikes wont get up a hill cause how high up we are. Plus my weight bottoms out rear shocks on anything under a 600.
Well I've ridden a lot of smaller bikes over here in Smokies etc, but I weigh a little less. Most of your twin cylinder bikes will have more torque and will allow you to have a bigger motor without as much risk (things just happen a lot faster on a 4-cylinder, they are less forgiving in general if a mistake is made).
In your case if you are just bigger and you need more power for the area you ride, like in the mountains for example, then you can get a bigger bike. Just be careful and keep the rubber side down! Bikes like the Fz-09/MT-09 and similar should have plenty of torque to do what you want, or there are lots of mid-size sport bikes with plenty of power.
Alex Simmons Most magazines classify 600 sport bikes as "mid weight". But I think I got ya. Whatcha think of the CBR 650f? I dont want a naked bike, so FZs are no go. I was strongly considering a CBR 500r, but again, I sit on one, and the rear just sinks right down.
To whoever just "liked" this thing. I got a Ninja 400. It runs beautifully. Just up the preload to 2 or 3 and your fine there. Engine runs great, and plenty of torque to keep up and pass traffic at under 70mph. Havnt done any pure highway runs, but I have a big street that is 65mph, and I was fine. Just gotta be careful getting on the throttle. Its so light it will try to take off without you if your not leaned over the front. For some reason no one on the internet mentions that.
what the hell is that RZR its beautiful!
Haha which one? Give me a time when it shows in the video and I'll tell you exactly which one it is. Probably the Dynamix edition or something.
i am 15 and wondering what age i can legally ride a 600cc. they are very different but i ride 450cc motocross bikes so i understand i need to be careful on power delivery.
Well if you are in the U.S. you can't buy one yourself until you are 18. I believe in most states you can get a regular motorcycle license at 16 (again depends on your state), but unless a relative will buy it for you then it'll be 18 years old in the U.S.
For my first bike i was thinking about getting an fz07 or a 600. I grew up riding on the back of my dads supersports and on dirtbikes and everywhere i look people say that the fz07 is like the perfect beginner bike, but i really would like to get a 600. Would you suggest getting an fz07 over a 600
Sorry for the delayed response Gage, I've been away! I would definitely recommend an FZ07/MT07 over a standard 600cc sport bike since it is a twin, and the twins tend to be a little more forgiving when mistakes are made, unless you can find a good 600cc twin or a bike in the same category as the MT07 like an SV650, Ninja 650, CBR650, you get the idea
Well the good thing is I have been incurring huge risks with my life just for the fun of it so if it kills me atleast I died having fun. I pay for good life insurance for the kids atleast
Can you start on a Daytona 675
You can start on any motorcycle in theory, so yes, BUT it’s not always a good idea to start on a bike like the 675 because it tends to accelerate quickly, and has very sport oriented handling characteristics. So you CAN but I don’t recommend it as it will punish your for mistakes
Is he repeating himself for the whole video??
