  • On the Kawasaki Ninja 650! Going over the controls and progressions for new riders to be able to ride for their first time. Thank you everyone! :)
    It will be raining/snowing for the next week or 2. Most likely I will not be out on my bike through this. Soooo, I was thinking about Livestreaming here or something. I don't know. But I am trying to be as active as possible!
    I had a lot of fun with this!
    Today I talked about some of the basic basics for beginner beginners on motorcycles :) I really hope that this video eliminates a lot of the fears that could be holding someone back from starting. I really want to help!! hahaha. And have fun of course! :)

    When you're shifting, let off throttle while you pull in the clutch lever, then lift, or step, your shift pedal to change up, or down, a gear.

    This is a great "If you've never been on a bike" video. I have owned 4 but I can see some wonderful instructions for 1st timers. Btw my 2022 Ninja 650 ABS gets delivered next week and I learned a lot about the controls which the dealer failed to mention.

    Dude, I'm so excited I found your page man. Learning a lot and am happy I got a bunch more videos to watch. Stumbled on your page because the white 650 caught my eye. Doing a lot of research on bikes before I pull the trigger but I think you solidified it for me. Made up my mind a long time ago that it has to be white but was unsure of which bike. It was between this and the Vulcan 650 s, But I think the Ninja 650 is the bike for me. Looking forward to bingeing the playlist.

      That's awesome bud! It is so worth getting into riding, make sure to stay in your comfort zone while learning and it is super easy and rewarding :) People usually only get hurt when they are trying to show off or are pushing past their skill. Keep me posted if you do :)

    Is the ninja 650 or z650 a good beginner bike or should i aim for the ninja/Z 400

    • @MathewUnderwood
      @MathewUnderwood  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I definitely can see the 650 being good for a beginner. It is pretty tame. The only thing that I would suggest is making sure that you can hold the weight up and can easily have your feet flat on the ground while sitting on it. For a beginner, that is a big thing to keep in mind. From my experience, the bike is beginner friendly.
