After 3-4 years with a Z300, I'm looking to skip the 650 class and go straight to the Z900 at the end of the year. I had the opportunity of riding one on a racetrack (Interlagos, one of the most fun in the world) and despite being a lot more powerful, I found it manageable. I was also looking for a GSX750S but their prices went to the moon here in Brazil (well, moreso than other bikes) and is now more expensive than the Z900.
Nice. Right now, I ride a Yamaha bolt as my first bike. It’s at cruiser 950. But after a while. I want to get a z900rs it’s the cafe version of the z900

I started on a Ducati Scrambler Cafe. The bike just called to me with its looks and after riding a BMW 310R, a Rebel 500, an R3 and then the Ducati I was most comfortable on the Ducati. It was just effortless on starts with the extra torque of the 803, and didn't have the gearing issues of the others where you are pushing 5-6k rpm at 60 in top gear. It was essentially brand new so I have been keeping the RPMs down until the first oil change/service and then I will open it up more as I grow. Instead of starting smaller and getting tired of it.
Second bike, but not replacement, keep your ninja 400 or r3. They aren't worth a ton and they'll still be fun years later, and get even more fun the better you learn to ride on larger and faster bikes

I jumped from a donkey of a 250cc scrambler to a Yamaha MT-01 (1700cc v-twin street bike), no major issues really. Was a sharp learning curve, but depends on the rider. If you ride stupid, then expect many close calls or an accident or two... If you have throttle control you should be fine!

I agree with most of that. Just really don't like Motojitsu. He too often takes a riding technique for a specific type of bike and presents it as for all bikes. As a current owner of 2 different styles and a regular rider on a 3rd, I know that to be bad advice or even dangerous in some cases. I use different techniques(even opposing techniques), depending on whether I'm riding a supersport, naked, or cruiser. I've been riding for 20 years and have ridden just about every type of bike at least once. After watching a couple of his videos, I quickly questioned his knowledge of riding various types of bikes. I would never generalize riding techniques the way does. But I agree with the rest and their reasons. I would agree that Yammie's videos are usually much more entertaining than the others as well.
2018 Triumph Thruxton R paid 9k used has very nice suspension and brakes, not to mention looks that kill. The power is surprisingly sufficient as well as good reliability.
I grabbed the Sportster S (well 5th bike but what can you do). The biggest I had before that was the Triumph 865. You can't compare it to the Indian Scout. The Scout has nothing on it. Keep the Sportster S in "road mode". Glad it made the list but the Sportster S kind of lands in the advanced bike range at full power, not the "second bike".
Well, for the additional price of almost a whole other bike, I guess it should beat the Scout. Of course for that additional 5k you can buy performance mods for the Scout that'll have it keeping up with Vrods.
Owning the tuono 660 is just more fun on the street than I can really describe. That amount of power and pull down low makes boring traffic or mundane routes seem like an event. I don’t really understand being unable to keep yourself from twisting the throttle all the way on a bigger bike as I had no problem just tooling around on an rrrrr1 (for 5 minutes before I was in a lot of pain) but I don’t need to worry because now it’s rewarding to do that rather than deadly. Great video yam.

Nice. I'd really like to I'd see a used bike equivalent, considering bikes from the last 5-10 years. (I bet I'm not the only one who buys used almost exclusively.)
Yep, put one for 10 to 20 year old bikes (for many of the 600cc and 1000cc bikes they have fuel injection starting from 2001-2003 depending on brand, and nobody wants to tune multiple carburators, let alone 4 all at once...) I can sometimes find a decent GSX-R or R6 bike in that age bracket for around $1500 to $2k. I don't see the need to spend a whole lot more for not much difference (at least until they start doing carbon fiber frames, but thats not common yet)
Might want to check your stats on the 890R , the ready to ride weight is a little over 400lb. If it was 366 wet ready to ride that would be a helluva power to weight ratio way too quick for most inexperienced riders.
I looked at the Scout. Bought a Triumph Bonneville Speedmaster instead. Very comfortable bike. Torque is where you want it even though it makes less power.

I started on a ninja 650. I put 12500 miles on it in 18 months and then sold it and bought a S1000r. Made the same 12500 miles in 18 months and now I have the M1000rr at 24 years of age
No hate but are you aware you could have 3 solid bikes for the price of just that one? My buddy who has a m1000rr had to buy a second bike cause he’s always stuck waiting on parts that broke…
@@Chumbucketsecret what parts? It’s pretty reliable so far. And I kept the s1000r just in case the sports bike would be uncomfortable which isn’t the case🤣
I started on a 2019 650 also but traded that in for a 21 zx-10r. Best investment. Being 6”1, the 650 is cramped to me. Glad I did wait a bit more until I got my dreamish bike 👍🏽
I went from a hyo 650 to a gsxr 750 and the acceleration difference was hilarious. What you get here is brakes. Omg those brakes will break your man parts until you get the soft touch. Be careful with your new bike guys, you're upgrading everything.
I started on a cbr300 which had a catastrophic failure, they had a recall on the 2015, Mine had it done but done wrong. so, it blew up. then i went to the cbr500 due to restrictions and me not really enjoying the cbr650 with a limiter, just felt weird. So technically 2nd bike but not really that much of an upgrade, however im very happy with the 500, i‘ll possibly even keep it when upgrading to the big one in two years, its fun in the twisties and with that being basically all that is there to drive over here it was a perfect fit
My starter bike was a 390 Duke, but I'm leaning towards the rebel 1100 or even an africa twin for more touring comfort. I'm not sold on anything at the moment
On a rebel 250 right now, looking at a Ninja 650. Cheap(ish) and they seem readily available in my area. Could probably go for something a little bit better but it's what I've settled on cause I want something with some more power but that will be more manageable than a 600 and especially a 1000. Offers a comfortable riding position which is nice cause I do have some current back issues. I know that the 650 class gets hated on but I think it'll do me well for quite a while.
I went Ninja 250>KTM 390 Duke>KTM 690 Duke. I’m wary to move up more bc I love the punchy single cylinder 690 and I usually only commute. Prob gonna hang onto the 690 til I can afford an R1
I'm riding a CBR650R (2022) as my first bike, I think I will go for a naked bike 900cc as my second bike. All attention is for MT09. Also, my CBR650R weights 210 KG, which is too much! I want a bike weights below 190kg, light weight --> easy to turn, control.
40 yrs ago,Snap On was still stupid expensive, but, had the best gripping tools on nuts and bolts, ( preferrable, if you made a living with them ). Now, a lot of brands will do great, gotta do a little research.
My first bike was a NinjaEX400 KRT ABS and I've decided it's time for a new bike. I've been looking at 1000s and even checked out the h2 for shits and giggles. I don't like that this video called me out so accurately. I guess I'll stick with the zx6r...
I am one of those irresponsible idiots who upgraded from a 48hp beginner bike to a 1000cc MT-10. The only reason I am alive is that the MT has drive modes and I started off in "rain mode" all the time, and I was scared enough not to go at the top range of the revs where te power is. The acceleration is absolutely indescribable, I've driven 600hp cars and they don't come close to what a liter bike can do.
I ve got a bmw f650 (single )and I am thinking of going on the vstrom is it that better of a road experience?I go off road as well and I know vstrom sucks off-road but is it so much better on road than a single ?
If your parents are not facsists, start with a 50cc scooter when you are 12 years old, getting the cash from mowing yards and washing cars, or a faster dirt bike if you have places to ride it legally. When you are 16, take the MSF beginner course and I think buy a 350cc Royal Enfield Meteor, and a cheap used car for bad weather. This bike tops out at about 72 mph, making your still overpriced insurance lower and forcing you to stay off the 70 mph 4-lanes. If you go to college and get a decent job at 22 years old, maybe move up to an MT-07, preferably with upgraded suspension. When your insurance prices drop to less insane at 26 years old, maybe buy a new MT-09 or used 1200cc BMW sport-tourer. Ideally, keep your previous bikes for different uses and more fun, also something to ride if one needs a new battery or new tire.
How about "Best Beginner Sport/Naked for 1100cc+ Cruiser Folks Who Haven't Ridden Since Having Kids 8 Years Ago And Want to Recover the Thrill for Under $6k As That's the Most Their Spouse Conceivably Wouldn't Have a Conniption Over"? Want something fun, usable around town, comfortable, possibly good for a few track days a year, but enough power to not need to trade up in 3 months.
Any chance you could get the numbers right? Duke 890R has a dryweight of 366 Ibs. Says it clear as day on their website. Identical dry weight to the street triple so please... Also i like how you single out honda and give the rear wheel horsepower when for every other manufacturer you give the crank horsepower.
Upgrading to a more hp bike is nice. But its not convenient in crowded countries like Vietnam. The motorcycles i owned of the past 4 years in Vietnam was. 5 scooters 110cc, then i bought my first 150cc and then recently i got my self a Benelli 300. The 300 is big enough for 2 people on road trips, yet being small enough for daily use. P.s. The Tuono 660 Factory kinda look very ugly at the front face.
0:33 I went from a 125 15hp to 650 72 hp, to 1000 165hp, I personally had no issues with getting used to the power but I also definitely do have the self control to leave the 100 in rain mode until I feel it out. Funnily enough below 40mph there wasn't a big difference in performance, the 1000 just pulled a bit harder for slightly longer than the 650, wasn't a crazy jump. I can see going from a 300 to a 1000 being tricky though.
@@AntaresSQ01 I dunno, its just interesting. Both bike have the same displacement with a different engine configuration and make the same power. Do you remember what the torque number and redline were?
I've got a LAMS cb650f. I don't want to spend extra on derestricting it. Since I commute daily I think a speed triple 675 would be good for daily and weekend rides.
Once you're outgrown your turbo busa, the next best bike to move up to is the ninja 650.

1st bike was a Royal Enfield Classic 500 Bullet. 2nd was a BMW r1100r. Big leap.
Good thing there’s aftermarket headlight options for that triple.
I looked at the Scout. Bought a Triumph Bonneville Speedmaster instead. Very comfortable bike. Torque is where you want it even though it makes less power.
Yammie: “You’re expected to go to bat for your brand in online slap fights”. HD and Indian riders: “What’s the first rule of fight club?!” 😎😂. Great video Yam!!👏🏻
Don’t get 😠
Having bought a Royal Enfield 650 I was worried I'd be left out...So glad I wasn't lol. I'll come back to this some day.
Who’s watching this in 2024?

I started on a ninja 650. I put 12500 miles on it in 18 months and then sold it and bought a S1000r. Made the same 12500 miles in 18 months and now I have the M1000rr at 24 years of age
No hate but are you aware you could have 3 solid bikes for the price of just that one? My buddy who has a m1000rr had to buy a second bike cause he’s always stuck waiting on parts that broke…
@@Chumbucketsecret what parts? It’s pretty reliable so far. And I kept the s1000r just in case the sports bike would be uncomfortable which isn’t the case🤣
@@Chumbucketsecret none taken
I started on a 2019 650 also but traded that in for a 21 zx-10r. Best investment. Being 6”1, the 650 is cramped to me. Glad I did wait a bit more until I got my dreamish bike 👍🏽
@@therealjp3177 great man!! Stay focus on the grind. My ninja was the 2018 model with candy blue paint. At the time that was the absolute dream
Cbr650r baby it is the best! Let’s see it on the next give away with lots of mods Shammie pubs ridiculous dude Yammie noob
I went from a hyo 650 to a gsxr 750 and the acceleration difference was hilarious. What you get here is brakes. Omg those brakes will break your man parts until you get the soft touch. Be careful with your new bike guys, you're upgrading everything.
Crashed my bandit and got a CBF1000. It's a nice entry into the 1000s 🤗
No Mt-09 or a Tracer 900 for second bike?!?! They are both like best in class by far..
He’s not a fan of the MT-09. I love my MT-09 tho.
I started on a cbr300 which had a catastrophic failure, they had a recall on the 2015, Mine had it done but done wrong. so, it blew up. then i went to the cbr500 due to restrictions and me not really enjoying the cbr650 with a limiter, just felt weird. So technically 2nd bike but not really that much of an upgrade, however im very happy with the 500, i‘ll possibly even keep it when upgrading to the big one in two years, its fun in the twisties and with that being basically all that is there to drive over here it was a perfect fit
My starter bike was a 390 Duke, but I'm leaning towards the rebel 1100 or even an africa twin for more touring comfort. I'm not sold on anything at the moment
I started on '08 ninja 650, don't think I can get rid of her just yet but I'm eyeing the beastly R1
Tammie forgot the beautiful new Triumph Trident. Also, didn't mention Insurance Rates. These vary widely, but an R6 may cost as much as the Payment !
"Choosing between horde and alliance"
HOLY !!! HE IS ONE OF US !!!
Looking at the comments i thought i was the only one that noticed this reference , but then i found you haha :D
On a rebel 250 right now, looking at a Ninja 650. Cheap(ish) and they seem readily available in my area. Could probably go for something a little bit better but it's what I've settled on cause I want something with some more power but that will be more manageable than a 600 and especially a 1000. Offers a comfortable riding position which is nice cause I do have some current back issues. I know that the 650 class gets hated on but I think it'll do me well for quite a while.
I went Ninja 250>KTM 390 Duke>KTM 690 Duke. I’m wary to move up more bc I love the punchy single cylinder 690 and I usually only commute. Prob gonna hang onto the 690 til I can afford an R1
I'm riding a CBR650R (2022) as my first bike, I think I will go for a naked bike 900cc as my second bike.
All attention is for MT09.
Also, my CBR650R weights 210 KG, which is too much!
I want a bike weights below 190kg, light weight --> easy to turn, control.
Literally just bought an r6 today! I know I’m a squid now but I’m so hyped!
40 yrs ago,Snap On was still stupid expensive, but, had the best gripping tools on nuts and bolts, ( preferrable, if you made a living with them ). Now, a lot of brands will do great, gotta do a little research.
My first bike was a NinjaEX400 KRT ABS and I've decided it's time for a new bike. I've been looking at 1000s and even checked out the h2 for shits and giggles. I don't like that this video called me out so accurately. I guess I'll stick with the zx6r...
I am one of those irresponsible idiots who upgraded from a 48hp beginner bike to a 1000cc MT-10. The only reason I am alive is that the MT has drive modes and I started off in "rain mode" all the time, and I was scared enough not to go at the top range of the revs where te power is. The acceleration is absolutely indescribable, I've driven 600hp cars and they don't come close to what a liter bike can do.
Tracer 9 :)
Yammie you should testride this btw, perhaps the Tracer 9GT
I wonder if you'd hate it or love it, there is no inbetween
According to the KTM website the Duke 890 R is 366lbs dry and some other online resources say around 405 wet is what they measured.
I went from a klr to a vstrom, not a massive jump but still felt crazy
I ve got a bmw f650 (single )and I am thinking of going on the vstrom is it that better of a road experience?I go off road as well and I know vstrom sucks off-road but is it so much better on road than a single ?
Hayabusa, Boss 109R, GSXR1000RZ, Betta 390rrs, katana 1000
890 is my next bike. KTM is a step above.
The KLR slander lol that was my first bike a 08 KLR loved the thing but had no plans on offroading so sold it and got a 07 FZ6
That ninja 650 engine... Total bliss.
So many mods lol.
Want torque? Think about it?
Looking to go from a Kawasaki Vulcan S 650 to a Z900.
Can't go wrong with that if you want power and better handling, just be prepared for more power wheelies on acceleration.
Z900 anyone? =)
If I didn't already have a Z900RS, I get one. Love Kawasaki 4 cylinder sound and smooth power everywhere!
I have a z900rs ✌🏻
That Piccolo saving us from the spaghetti beam was top tier
If your parents are not facsists, start with a 50cc scooter when you are 12 years old, getting the cash from mowing yards and washing cars, or a faster dirt bike if you have places to ride it legally. When you are 16, take the MSF beginner course and I think buy a 350cc Royal Enfield Meteor, and a cheap used car for bad weather. This bike tops out at about 72 mph, making your still overpriced insurance lower and forcing you to stay off the 70 mph 4-lanes. If you go to college and get a decent job at 22 years old, maybe move up to an MT-07, preferably with upgraded suspension. When your insurance prices drop to less insane at 26 years old, maybe buy a new MT-09 or used 1200cc BMW sport-tourer. Ideally, keep your previous bikes for different uses and more fun, also something to ride if one needs a new battery or new tire.
Imma just get a vespa or something
Love your content! Keep up the great work!!
How about "Best Beginner Sport/Naked for 1100cc+ Cruiser Folks Who Haven't Ridden Since Having Kids 8 Years Ago And Want to Recover the Thrill for Under $6k As That's the Most Their Spouse Conceivably Wouldn't Have a Conniption Over"?
Want something fun, usable around town, comfortable, possibly good for a few track days a year, but enough power to not need to trade up in 3 months.
pluto is a planet! just like a turbo busa is the best 2nd bike
Great video Yammie.
Whats next? The 10 best motorcycles for dwarfs?
Yammie: you’ve had enough of the 40hp bike its time to move on. Me with a 8.5 hp bike that i have to drive for 1 more year
Any chance you could get the numbers right?
Duke 890R has a dryweight of 366 Ibs. Says it clear as day on their website. Identical dry weight to the street triple so please...
Also i like how you single out honda and give the rear wheel horsepower when for every other manufacturer you give the crank horsepower.
Oh man I didn't know harbor freight has a rear stand I'll be going there this weekend
book stand hit hard
Is it ok to upgrade from a 100cc to a ducati797??
You will have to pry my rear and front stands that are way too old from my cold dead hands!
I don't have a 200hp bike to use all 200 on the street,I have it to show my friends screenshots of the dyno sheets saying my bike has 200hp
Ok so I have the CB 650 as my first bike.... i guess i need a "what 3rd bike" video
Ninja 400 now, my next bike is going to be the CBR600RR
Get the KTM if you’re ok with a bike that may or may not run right. 😂
That Street Triple is legit. Might be the last bike you need for yeeeears.
Upgrading to a more hp bike is nice. But its not convenient in crowded countries like Vietnam.
The motorcycles i owned of the past 4 years in Vietnam was. 5 scooters 110cc, then i bought my first 150cc and then recently i got my self a Benelli 300. The 300 is big enough for 2 people on road trips, yet being small enough for daily use.
P.s. The Tuono 660 Factory kinda look very ugly at the front face.
0:33 I went from a 125 15hp to 650 72 hp, to 1000 165hp, I personally had no issues with getting used to the power but I also definitely do have the self control to leave the 100 in rain mode until I feel it out. Funnily enough below 40mph there wasn't a big difference in performance, the 1000 just pulled a bit harder for slightly longer than the 650, wasn't a crazy jump. I can see going from a 300 to a 1000 being tricky though.
650 with 72 hp. Cb650 nighthawk?
@@clintbeeler5069 Ninja 650
@@AntaresSQ01 funny how that works. My cb650 makes the same power. What year?
@@clintbeeler5069 2011, not sure why it's surprising it's a modern bike vs a slightly older model
@@AntaresSQ01 I dunno, its just interesting. Both bike have the same displacement with a different engine configuration and make the same power. Do you remember what the torque number and redline were?
A busa with even bigger turbo is the best option. Or maybe a turbo h2.
Twin charged H2 would be bonkers
@@alexbabineau yesss.
Dont want your bike to look like an alien? Get this bike that looks even more like an alien! O_O
Yam plays vigilante in peacemaker confirmed
Picking any of these bikes would make you one happy squid 😂😂😂😂😂
Not use 200hp on the street? Well my 2017 zx14r gets WOT all the time. Its part of the joy.
I've got a LAMS cb650f. I don't want to spend extra on derestricting it. Since I commute daily I think a speed triple 675 would be good for daily and weekend rides.
0:45 unsplattered 😂
Interesting tidbit at the end.
4:00 yammie, that's what unreliability is
