My ex dumped me recently 6 days after we closed on a house together and took the house. We were also together for 7 years. Had a good combined income, multiple cars (which she took all except for one), etc. I wanted a motorcycle for 4 of those 7 years together and "we" always decided we just need to make a little more and be in a better spot. Never happened. Bought my first cheap used bike after we split and yesterday I got on it and rode it through the neighborhood. Honest to God one of the happiest moments of my entire life. I spent months in my room in the dark mostly sleeping (outside of work) but after getting on the bike I found myself approaching strangers and chatting it up and complimenting people. I really can't explain it. It's like I have just figured out for the first time how to live and be happy. Good video brother and ride safe.
all my life i've valued my own time over money and possesions, and while i've accumulated a fair bit of both, it's never been at the expense of what really matters. I think it's great you are reaching that conclusion. when older you won't be thinking of the long hours working, the new washing machines you bought or debt you got into paying for stuff you really didn't need, and if you don't like yourself and how you live your life you can't expect others to. GL
Thank you and sorry you went through all that. I went through two 7 yr relationships. Mine sucked but I didn’t have investments like you did. I’m glad you found something positive tho. Mine was the gym. Best thing to do is get out there and not keep to yourself. Congratulations on the bike and your new journey.
That sucks to hear, but how tf did she take more than half of everything? Did you put her name on everything you owned? Sounds like you need a good lawyer my friend.
CN I couldn't agree more. I turned 66 last year and, finally, got my first bike after having a heart attack a few months before. You never know what's going to happen and owning and riding a motorcycle had been one of those things I put off for years for responsibility excuses. I did all the research I could stand, understood the risks and decided it would be more on the plus column than the negative. And I got a black Ninja 650, then sold it later last year and got a Tracer 9 GT, which I'm happy with because I can more easily tour with it. All too often we forget to chase and fullfill our dreams. I decided I wasn't going to let that happen. I'm now 67, I don't care. I feel good and riding is an inexplicable enjoyment. Stephen, Medford, OR
thats fantastic, well done. i don't know why, but it's often us boomers that are more open to new experiences than so many kids i see with no direction and a head full of mobile phone. Like they say it doesnt matter what you ride as long as you ride, and if im on my 750 or 125 i get just as much pleasure from the riding itself, and reiterate all City Ninja says in the vid. I expect you got a few 'u having a mid life crisis comments', to which i said i hope im only half way through my life, but now people see me going all over and having adventure i think they are a bit envious as i have the get up and go spirit they don't, so keep riding m8 and stay safe.
That’s what’s up. Ima look that bike up. I love the 650 and got it because I wasn’t sure which direction I was going to go. Touring or sports. Honestly I do both but I would love to get a good touring bike. Been looking at Vulcan 1700. Seems like older people get them and sell them fast. Probably a weight thing but there is a surplus of them on marketplace. Good on you for still riding. I really hope I can keep riding at your age. Just see what happens.
Good for you for having the courage to try something you were dreaming of Stephen. I was 43 when I got my first bike, 2010 Ninja. Last year I switched to a 2023 Z900 SE and love that too. Enjoy that Tracer brother, she's a beauty!
I wasn't ready to have my first child at all. For me now 13 years later I have 2 kids. I don't know how old you are but I've not had any stronger motivation in life than to be successful for my family. Life is so short you are right. And coming full circle my daughter was the reason I started riding. She wants to ride. My toys are secondary but it's nice when you can share your passions with someone.
That’s what’s up that you can experience that with your daughter. Honestly I wonder if that’s why I’m not as motivated in life. I mean I am but I know if I had a kid it would be a different story. I’m 33

Riding a motorcycle relieve stress, you working out all of the muscles in your body you’re not caged in like inside of a car and most people who fear driving a motorcycle, they have no idea of what they’re missing out on fear prevents a lot of people from being successful and to be able to do things, they thought they would never do. I feel free when I ride. I got my music. My tail bag has everything I need inside of it with my bike. I prayed when I got my bike and my angels are always riding with me, so I have no fear I went through a heartbreak and betrayal from my own daughter so after she left my house, this became my new baby🏍️❤️
My final push to get my motorcycle was finally being able to afford one. I had always wanted one since I was a little kid. Another reason I got mine was because I remember being young and seeing cool bikes around. Just today a kid asked me to rev my bike, I told him sure. Boy did his face light up, it was so fun to see his face when he ran up.
My man! You articulated the idea as I had hoped, with a philosophical slant. And a great job at that for an unscripted clip. Good job. As you were talking about the sunset, I had a thought that "I could smell the sunset." Also, when you mentioned about how riding stretches your mind and challenges you to grow as a person another thought occured to me. My level of emotional control that I have gained has transferred over to other areas of life which was unexpected to say the least. I have never particpated in anything so captivating, engrossing and for me spiritual like motorcycling. Great job again CN!
No thank you dude. This was a great video idea. Even that little bit of time waiting for your final response worked out perfectly. Made me venture out at the perfect time to catch that sunset.

@@Thoraxe0987 that was the first motorcycle I ever rode. Used it for my msf course. I’m not sure what year. There is a demo day this weekend at mossites. Not sure what bmw they will have but they may have one. A 23 or 24
After a lifetime of enjoying 2 wheels cycling, and just motorbike rentals on holiday that i really liked, i woke up one day when 60 and thought, i'm going to get one, so did a CBT, rode a 125 for a year, learning doing a lot of miles, and then got a full licence. since day one, i have totally loved it, as i get out in the country with a picnic just enjoying the ride and scenery, sometimes 200miles plus, it's always a great mini adventure. those that have never tried it have no idea what they are missing, and if you are procrastinating, id say just do it, coz you only truly regret the things in life you never did, anything else is learning.

Nice! You're right, those who don't try this truly don't know what they're missing. Even the decision to get put starts the while ritual of getting the gear on, cleaning the visor, throwing a leg over and bringing the engine to life....wooohoo! Gives me butterflies just thinking about the process, lol.
Good video. Some good key points too. I got my first motorcycle in 2003. I always wanted one growing up, and got that perfect opportunity when someone smashed my street parked car at my old home, totaling it. The crazy thing was, I saw a Motorcycle dirtbike stunt show the night before. I thought to myself, what can I buy for the little I had back then? My first motorcycle of course. A 2003 Ninja 250R. 21 years of riding motorcycles ever since and I look forward to it every season and 76,000 miles riding experience later. '21 Ninja 650 is my favorite bike so far. The Lightcycles from Tron and Speeder Bikes from Star Wars made me want a motorcycle early in life. One rule for me though is, if you're a good car/truck driver without any crashes or a good driving record, then a bike is probably going to be a safer bet as I've experienced, versus the alternative of a bad driver getting a motorcycle. The decisions we make while driving/riding make a huge difference. While riding, I've never felt any fear in all those years. If I did, I wouldn't want to ride. Relaxed but alert is the key. I agree, fear is useless.
I totally agree with that. I work with a kid who just wants a bmw 1000rr. Has no idea what he’s talking about and totaled 3 cars since I known him (1 yr) all from speeding. His parents seem to buy him more cars so idk.
Hell yea. For me it was a little mini bike. It was a friends and I fell in love. Bought a mini myself and rode for a summer. I just knew after that I needed a motorcycle
Great video, I'm 5 minutes in and I already like the speech you have on the right mindset to have to go and buy the motorcycle. BUT, I can't help but see those highbeams on ! Hoping it gets turned off in the video... Don't spoil my fun, I'll keep watching

Not related to this subject/topic but... you still enjoying the 650? Still not hungry for more? Ive been watching your vids from the start and at and the same time i'm saving money for my first bike which most likely will be the 650 as well... but thats mainly due to my limited budget.

I’m always around. Not so much in the summer unless it’s late in the afternoon. These few days where it was 80+ killed me. Loving the weather now tho

It's really hot in here in South east asia so if I do get one ''now'' I might not be able to enjoy it, plus i don't really like the color this 2024, I might wait it out on 2025.
How hot does it get over there. And I kinda agree. I liked the dark green (not the bright green) but that was kinda it.
@@CityNinja650 some neighbouring countries experiencing heat waves and droughts it's really bad here in our place it's becoming hotter and hotter even at night.

Thank you. That’s what I get for finishing this at 2 am
Yeah bro losing a 7 year relationship that is otherwise good over not wanting to have kids is kinda dumb. Shoulda just stuffed that oven and made her happy.
You can ride motorcycles and have kids at the same time. Just took my son out on the super bike for the first time last weekend. My daughter’s a little speed freak too.
Talks about being focus and thn proceeds to loss it
If I had a nickel for every time that happened lol
This has been covered a thousand times by a thousand channels. Come up with something else.
