Is the 2023 Kawasaki Ninja 650 a good first bike? : POV Beginner

Are you thinking of getting your first Motorcycle? If you are thinking about getting a 650 Ninja then maybe this can give you some insight from the perspective of a new rider

Don’t be a sitting duck at the stoplights just keep your bike in first and always ready to react. Other than that ride safe and enjoy the Ninja650 🫶🏼

The '20-'24 Ninja 650 is a great first bike, and all-around bike at any point too, agreed. This bike can also catch a rider off guard if they quickly fully open the throttle at lower speeds. It'll either lift up a bit or take off pretty fast to the point you have to hang on if not leg-holding the tank. But also very comfortable. Great on fuel, 4 gallons range of 200 miles with .2 spare. 0 to 60 in 3.5 seconds, and fast enough to get a rider into big trouble if not careful. A great motorcycle!

You just motivated me to get a 650 as my first bike man! Keep up the vids man.

I really appreciate your video and all of the information you gave to us viewers. I'm currently learning from a friend of mine how to ride on his dirt bike. And this Kawasaki Ninja 650 is exactly what I want. So finding your video along with the info that YOU provided, gave me all the tools necessary to motivate myself to learning properly and excel in riding safely. ❤ Thank you!

I bought this exact bike back in April of this year. It is my fifth bike after taking about a 13 year break. Just enough of every aspect of performance to make it great regardless if a beginner or advanced rider. Excellent mid range power and that fifth gear power spread is amazing. Great video!!

I bought a 2020 Ninja 650 brand new as my first bike. I had literally zero experience other than what I learned off some YouTube videos. The salesman delivered the bike to my house and my journey began. It was a great first bike and I would recommend it to anyone learning to ride. It's such an easy bike to ride, plenty of power to learn on and still have fun, but can still get you into some trouble if you aren't careful. Sold her in December and picked up a 2023 Z900 which is a whole new animal. Part of me still misses the 650 though.

Good video and great choice in a first bike! Ride safe.

Picked up a ninja 650 127 miles today ! My first bike excited 😊 come on warmer weather

Nice video! I have the 2022 650 krt. Runs great. Added a full exhaust for some sound, upgraded the windshield, cowl , and the rear plate. Just a great all around bike. Enjoy!

I just bought your bike today, even the same color and year. My first ride is tomorrow when the insurancegoes through. It is my first bike. I can't wait to learn to ride. 😊 I feel good about my purchase. The msf course I had to ride a dual sport. So, tomorrow will be a little bit different. 😅

I bought a 2022 ninja 650 for my first bike. Ive had it for 6 months and got bored of it but it is a fantastic starter bike. Im going this week to get a 2022 Zx6r. I recommend everyone start off on the 650. If you start on anything smaller you will just be bored of it. I got bored of the 650 but only bc i like to go fast. I also put 7k miles on my 650 in 6 months.

I started on a 09 versys 650, perfect motor to begin on! Now I’m on a 1000, that 650 trained me well!

Just grabbed my first bike on march 4th, ninja 650 KRT green with no abs also haha. Congrats on your bike bro and wish you success in your channel growth! Will be subbing to follow along on your journey

[mannybrar]

Im an older guy but newer rider still on a Ninja 300. I read and saw so many reviews of the N650 but get a little frustrated when people call it a beginner bike. This will be my forever type of bike and feel it has everything anyone could NEED: Comfort, affordability, good mpgs, light, fast enough, good for city but also some touring (with a higher windscreen). Tell me I'm wrong.

[BrittyK]

Just subbed this is the exact bike I am looking at! Thanks for the video!

[thatonebeliever]

really honest review, loved it. ride safe brother

[AG-qfww]

First off, great job on the video! Pro quality video perfect audio nice intro smooth editing really nailed it out the gate. I have the 2022 Ninja 650 abs have put on a little over 2k miles by now and am really happy with it so far. It’s not fastest but its so comfortable and a great all around bike. I don’t know if I’m the only one that does this but sometimes on long rides I’ll even kick my feet back to the passenger pegs to switch up my ass and leg position for a bit. 😅 First thing I did was a tail tidy then just replaced the back seat with a rear seat cowl and man, it really made the bike look sporty. It was expensive because you have to go with the Kawasaki one or the colors won’t match but its worth it!
Btw you could shut off the tach flashing in the settings. It’s there to remind you of break in but for me got annoying quick. Good luck with your future videos your off to a hell of a start!

just bought this as my first bike. a week before my 21st birthday

[WolfDaeLegend]

I got one as my first bike a month ago from mosites. Great bike overall. Especially seeing all the comparison videos of the 650s.

[kevinjohnston]

I started on a 400 I put 5.1k miles on and I can't help but think if this bike would've been a better choice! I feel like this gives a little more umppphhhh on the freeway but I love my 400 in the city / twisties given it hardly weighs anything! Great video!

I really appreciate how everyone says the pros and cons cons
