Harley Davidson: "Everyone's favorite least-favorite brand." lol

Its true what was said about the “small displacement sportbikes”! I bought a 2012 CBR250r for 1500 bucks last year and sold it this year for $2900! Talk about a profit 😁

I highly recommend staying away from used dirt bikes, unless you have a hookup on parts and can fix things yourself. 1. Dirt bikes require more maintenance and most people don’t maintain them.
2. They are often listed well above what they are worth. 3. Most are tortured by younger people who actually didn’t pay for them so they’re often full of unseen issues waiting to arise.

watching this AFTER buying a 1 mile 2020 zx-10r

Spaniard here, got my A2 license 10 months ago, bought a used 2010 kawa er6n with only 18000km (about 11k miles), A2 limited to 47hp, for 3k euros. Absolutely funtastic, already 5000km on it and apart from a tire swap, perfect begginer bike. 14 more months, get an A license, unlock it to its full 72 hp, instant new bike!

Which motorcycles to buy used? All of them! If they're in good condition. Buying new is only worth it if you want that specific model of motorcycle right now and you don't care about losing 1000 bucks as soon as you turn the key.

I like buying new because I can break it in properly, maintain it properly and keep it clean properly. To me that’s worth it.

I got my motorcycle permit today! I'm picking up my 2020 Yamaha MT-03 this weekend!

I’ve watched your guys videos for about 5 months now. I have finally got my first bike 6 weeks ago (Kawasaki z650) and have been riding for 3 weeks now! I’m lovin it and just wanted to say thank you for everything you have taught me!

Yammie, whoop his ass!!! Don't let him make fun of our lord and saviour.

If you’re a cruiser person I highly recommend the Suzuki C50. Any of them, they’re borderline indestructible, simple, user friendly, and can do a highway tour as long as you don’t need to have your bike lugging at 2600 rpm at 80. At 70 mph I am at 4100/8300 rpm, and it is quite happy there. Great bikes, very good for starters too.

I bought a brand spanking new Kawasaki Ninja 400 one and a half years ago and sold it two months back for almost the same price as a brand spanking new one.
With the covid years and products not getting here correctly there were literally 0 used ones that were being sold in the Netherlands

I bought a 2008 Suzuki Vstrom 650 back in 2018, and it's been phenomenal. Only had 10K km on it... I've put on 40. Highly recommended

As a Rossi fan I feel personally attacked by the Marc Marquez reference!

[schmang]

Just bought my first bike, a 2002 Yamaha Fazer 600 with 20K on the clock, for peanuts. Test done and new plugs, pads and fluids applied. Very happy.
I guess I am now a Yammie Noob.

[vermilliontoaster]

Why do people hate the Gladius? If the SV650 is the same thing “uglier”. Wouldn’t be smarter to get the bike no one wanted, but has the same price as the popular?!

I have nothing to contribute but that stock footage of the woman in the business suit on the sport bike is fantastic.

[gregghayesvtrhonda]

Thanks you for putting Cleveland on the map for crazy looking bikes! Cleveland, Ohio home of the Gsxr!

I bought a 2014 HD street glide special for 10, 500 in 2019 in beautiful mysterious red sunglow, an awesome bike with tons of extras. Also bought a 2016 passion red Ninja 300 in 2017 with 12 miles on her for 3, 900.

its always better to know that buying a used bike will always have problems. so be prepared to put works on it. in my experience:
1. bike motor is the most important, get the bike still start up and running.
2. always check for fuel pump, sprak plug, air filter, battery.
3. get the bike you love so you will have more fun and willing to fix it. than get someting out of youtube.
