Fast bikes are a waste of $$

[mostlyjovial]

I currently am borrowing my sister’s ninja 400, (my bike is in the shop, and my other bikes are dirt bikes) I genuinely do believe it’s a more fun experience than a bigger bike.
I’ve scrapped the pegs on it, dragged my knee, something I wouldn’t do on my own bikes, and that’s crazy to me.

Get a small bike. Always keep a smaller bike.
I promise you. You’ll never regret riding it.

(And thanks for making this vid man. So many squids need to hear it.)

As someone who lives in a third world country, it's definitely interesting to see someone refer to a 70hp motorcycle as "slow"

Mt09 or Z900 are the best of both worlds! They still have the pull of a 1000cc sport bike but they are way more fun for the street

I daily a literbike. Its loads of fun dont get me wrong. But something about riding my friends 300s and 400s is absolutely amazing to me. Some of the most fun on a bike ive had is on a 300. 100 miles an hour on an R3 feels like mach jesus. Ill do 130 in 4th gear non chalantly on my literbike, no problem. But doing 100, 110 on a tiny little bike is so much more fun I swear, small bikes are great. Looking to get a zx4RR for my track bike next

[diogocosta]

As someone who has an R6 and an MT-07 I guarantee that the R6 is super fun and exciting, but sometimes the mt 07 with 2 cylinders are so great to ear it and to have fun everywhere

[therealrealshocker]

I broke my peg off my FZ07 😅 i sold my FZ…then realized what a mistake that was so i bought a new MT07 💪🏼 IM BACK BABY! I love these bikes!

I currently drive a 125cc adventure bike. When I get my bigger license, I wanna get a yamaha r7, which is probably gonna be my forever sportbike. I also wanna get another adventure bike though.

I got a zx-11 after a year on a 650 and I don’t regret it at all. I don’t need to be redlining it to have fun, it’s enough just to know that I’m sitting on a beast when I ride it. It sounds like heaven, comfortable for a tall guy like me, looks sexy, and I can still take it to the twisties even though I’m not pushing it to the limit

[Coopxr.xj]

I just got a 2009 Yamaha xj6, I do not regret it at all, as an Australian, best learner legal bike ever

[samuelswihart]

I'm looking to get the Yamaha XSR 700 and put Kelpi pipes on it and maybe a small windshield. It feels, to me, how motorcycling should. Plus I love the look of it.

[jiivee]

Yep. First bike was 1994 fighter 750 gsxr, then another, then K4 1000, then Z1000 and now 8 years later just got a Street Triple 675R. Best bike so far hands down for streets and even on track fun 👍 you enjoy ~100bhp bikes waaay more than liter bikes with 170-220

[galifromcali]

I’m a beginner the only experience I’ve had with a bike was during the MSF course and I just bought a Yamaha MT-03. I honestly don’t feel confident in that bike since I am a little shorter and was struggling during the course. I keep telling myself with more practice I’ll get better but I fear I have payed an excessive amount for a bike I’m not ready for

[nulla]

I agree. I only would wish for some more power on the highway but I just ride for fun so it’s mostly twisties and backroads where you don’t need that much power

[learnindonesianwithhugh]

I am pretty much a daily rider, 17 years going strong, and at one point for about a year I was doing 5-6 hours of technical riding every day. I can concur on this. You want a bike that is a little more than you'll need for 90% of the riding you'll do and nothing heavier or more powerful than that. That way you keep costs down, avoid lugging more weight than you need and can become a much better rider. All this adds up to enjoying riding more and staying safe. That being said, if you have room in your stables and want a monster in there, why not! So far I am happy with more smaller bikes for different purposes. Anything that keeps me reaching for a two wheeled option is a winner.

[AlvisePeltrera]

My second bike is actually a big ass BMW K1300 with 170 hp, never regretted! What a bike

[cristiancosenza]

As a dude Who rides bikes since a can remember, superbikes will always be my thing. But he has a point. For hitting the streets especialy in city you dont need a superbike. And also the superbikes, you want to go fast go on a track you can try to find your límits and see how really good you are

[Davyjones-dmj]

I’ve got a Yamaha fz6 and I love it! For me it’s probably the best beginner bike,

[MTOhRyan]

It’s more fun to ride a slow bike fast than a fast bike slow.

Just got my first bike a month ago. Never rode a bike before that. Cbr 600 f4i. Im damn thankful i didnt get something smaller id be selling it right now for a bigger bike.
