I'm 51, but my heart is still in my 20s, and I ride both a Goldwing DCT and a Rebel 1100 DCT. I love riding early on Sunday mornings when the traffic is light-it's such a relaxing and peaceful experience.
I'm 67 years young and I ride everyday here in SW Florida. I gave up the fast bikes a long time ago. A Honda shadow 750 cruiser is fun , sounds good and with a windshield, saddlebags and top case it's all I need for everyday. Cheers brother 😎
The Honda Shadow 750 is a nice bike. Great to see you still riding! You are on the safer side of FL. I lived in Boca Raton for eight years, I would never ride a motorcycle in SE FL, the drivers are bat shiz crazy as hell there. My mom, who was once a driving instructor, quit driving after an accident in the FL that gave her PTSD. A guy in a truck ran into her car head on while she was stopped at a stop sign and totaled her car, she mad it out ok but was traumatized. I'm trying get her and my sister to move back to Ohio. lol
your chatter is saving lives. as a 52 year old riding a Z900, I just ride smarter. keep teaching Cruza, you'll never know how much of a difference you've made.
Brotha Cruza, what alot of people, especially 'newbies' don't realize is that when you are sitting on a sports bike, your back will automatically lean forward, which means you have to 'crank' your neck upwardly and after about 45 minutes of riding your neck starts to hurt. On top of that it's actually harder to turn your head to see 'side traffic' because the neck isn't meant to turn to the left or right while it's cranked upwardly. Now, get on an upright motorcycles and the neck problem and turning your head to the left and right issues are all gone !
That's true. I've been sitting bolt upright for 9 years on my Multistrada, it's great. I don't feel like I'm missing any realistic sporty ability on the road.
@@aluisious That's good my man....my wife and I each got ourselves the new 2025 Triumph Rocket 3R Storm. Seating is as close to upright as you can get while still having that speed and 'out of this world' torque. The bike was meant to be as agile as the speed triple, but more stable and to test it out, we've gone up to 150 miles before hitting the fuel station :). Also, our bikes are so intimidative looking and looks incredibly heavy, that this alone keeps anyone from wanting to steal them...lol..
@@SongJLikes I know what you mean. Hopefully you're too old to weave between cars doing 170 for your instagram. I went out for a ride yesterday, it was 42 degrees so I kept it relaxed.
Riding for over 15 years now and I don't think I'll ever change. My daily is still a 2018 R6 and it's soon to be paired with a new R9. As they'll rotate being the daily. I can't ever see myself getting another naked bike as I've owned an MT07 and MT09 SP or much less getting an ADV or cruiser. I'll just keep my 2 fast bikes and my lil Grom as my stable.
Great to see you still riding. I find it enjoyable having a mix of different bikes but by far the most fun bike is my YZ450FX supermoto. The fast bikes make you speed which is like giving a crack pipe to an addict and telling him/her not to smoke it. lol I detailed that addiction in my "Throttle Crank Syndrome" video: ua-cam.com/video/OKVGnjx5Lr0/v-deo.html I'm chill on ADV and Harleys as well, but I treat the MT-07 as my cruiser and love it. It has more bottom end grunt than a R6 ever had. You have to crank up the RPMs to get power out of a R6 as you know., amazing track weapon tho, it helped my cousin win races and become a professional racer.
Almost 50, sitting here in my old man robe and fuzzy slippers, drinking coffee and looking at TW200s. There's a lot of obscure fishing spots and little trails here that would be perfect for a little bike like that. Never had a small off road capable bike. Looks like so much fun.
Yup, 52 here & in hindsight if I could go back 30 yrs.... Instead of buying a fast sport bike, I would have bought a good mid size, multi purpose, dual sport or adventure bike that got good mpgs & could do a bit of everything.
@@michaelbrinks8089 I started on a Vulcan 750 decades ago but I still remember a little Honda Monkey sitting next to it in the showroom. Had a lot of fun on the Vulcan but I always wonder....what if I had started on the Monkey.
I guess I consider myself an older rider now and I will always consider myself a sport bike rider. I got my first new Harley, a Fat Bob a couple of years ago. About to get a new Road Glide CVO ST as a 2nd bike when the ‘25s drop. I didn’t get a Harley because I got older. I got a Harley because they finally built something I liked.
I’m in my mid 40s now, and have really enjoyed moving to dirt and unmaintained roads…I can go hours without seeing anyone. Zero chance of being hit by someone texting and driving, or not paying attention. Much more relaxing now, safe travels all.
I gave up on superbikes when i stopped doing track days. It just wasn't worth it to ride like that on the street. It wasn't for a lack of skill it just stopped being fun. You get to a point where you just want to ride and see the world instead of chasing the perfect line or acting a fool on the road. Some of us dont need the drama that comes with it.
I got started too late, but not stopping. For the year I have lol. 46 now. It will be 2 wheels as long as can. If can't do moto I'll go back bicycle. Need to do that anyway. Have not rode bike long time. 1 bike broke, scooter just took out battery. High potential for moving before next season.
65 and still feel 25! Have had 35 bikes from Dual purpose to Sport tourers to Full sport bikes 250's to 900's and happiest now on my 250 naked comfortable all round semi sport bike virtually like your MT07 but smaller (CBF 250 05 model in Gloss Black) It does all I want to do, Nippy, handles great, will cruise at 100kmh all day (60 in US terms), being a smooth single with dual balance shafts, has a nice little throb yet stock exhaust so not so annoying (Because small bikes sound cheap and nasty with loud pipes in my books) Enjoy your talks! (Along with Sean from SRK)
That plus, if a cager sees your 300 yards away they think they have time to pull out, they think youre doing the speed limit they don't realize the moto is doing 140 on a 60mph road
41 and been on raw sportbikes since I bought a GSXR750 brand new my senior year in high school. Did trackdays, and amateur racing. Been there done that. Recently switched to a sport tourer to slow down a bit. No regrets.
sport bikes look cool, they are light weight, have good electronics and tires. I think the naked bikes are the key really. They have all the sport bike benefits for the street and none of the drawbacks. honestly sport bikes are meant for riding on a track. There are so many different bikes I want just to experience them. It is really difficult to make an informed decision on what bike to get when you are just watching reviews and stuff.
I took my XSR900 to the track recently; other than an N3 shock and a largish fly windscreen (I know, contradiction in terms), it had no modifications and was as fast as I dared. Yeah, sportbikes are for the track but these hyper nakeds are just a tick behind while having ridiculously low insurance rates. In my selfish opinion, we should encourage go-fast people to go to sportbikes. Seasoned riders will ride naked bikes. If go-fast riders start buying naked bikes in vast numbers, then they'll start crashing them in vast numbers, bringing unwanted attention and higher insurance rates.
@@steve00alt70 The BMW S1000RR is the odd creature out. When it first came out, it was pushed to be a sportbike by BMW but eventually most people who bought it used it as a sport-tourer. Eventually, the S1000RR was offered with heated grips, cruiser control, and hard panniers (via Hepco & Becker), and the insurance rates are one of the lowest of the sportbikes. So people are not really buying the S1000RR as they would a Suzuki GSXR1000...they're buying them as more premium Suzuki GSXS1000's.
The naked bikes are even better for the street and nearly as lightweight and tuned with more bottom end grunt but less top end power that you don't need on the street. I love the naked bikes but you can get crazy on some of them too like the Ducati Streetfighter V4, that bike is a beast. Stay safe!
I’m 53, 26 years ago I bought a 1998 cbr900rr, rode it for 3 years, then a gsxr 750, then I went through some ninjas, currently riding a 2020 mt07, I’m trading it in this year, and I’ll be darned if I’m not cross shopping cruisers and ADV bikes. lol the timing on this video was almost perfect.
73 old love my modded mv agusta brutale 800 few changes to a supermotard ,it's all about throotle,still get the thrills sensible upright naked bikes are the go ,like you cyco ,when I meet young guys on sportbikes they want to race me i say upfront to them i can go fast but choose to live longer to
52, if I had money & multiple bikes I'd still have a fast sport bike...But if I can only have 1 bike, then I want a mid size, good mpg, multipurpose bike. That can do a bit of everything.
I rode the super bikes, my first bike was a 86 gpz900r ninja,now I’m 55 and riding a 23 mt07 and just enjoying the ride! Gonna look into the r9 though,but I never buy a first year model
I am an old rider, 64 years old. I am here to tell you the fast bikes ARE more fun. It's not about pure speed; it's about cornering and leaning and precise lines. Power and control. I just put a deposit on a new GSX-R750. Insurance wrote off my old one. For the record, I was going very slow when I wrecked my old one, due to very bad fog. I understand if you are afraid to go fast and push your limits. Ride your own ride! Track riding is expensive. Been riding since 1986.
I agree. I have a 22 ninja 400 and I am 47. I like to ride my ride. I am not out there trying to speed race or wheeling for what. I have people I have to come home. I have been following you for years….
Biggest advice I can give to the younger/new inexperienced riders- Avoid group sport bike rides. It’ll make you ride beyond your skill level just to keep up with everyone. Ride your own ride and stick with closer friends who understand your beginner skillset. And dress for the slide, even if you’re “just going across town”. Keep the rubber side down and be alert out there please.
I think that the word that we are looking for is discipline. In my country people on 125 to 80 cC bikes get killed or injured everyday. I like to think that people should be able to get whatever they want as long as they are willing to learn. Hard heads lead to hard knocks basically.
I'm 61 years old and on my 10th motorcycle. I've had three motorcycle accidents without a scratch because it's always been performance motorcycles and the gear we ride with.. ( sport bikes) I just traded in my 2015 FZ 09 for a 2023 KLR 650. I just could not stop speeding.. 😂
I just hope you are doing all of the crazy speeds at the track and not on the street. The ZX10R is a great bike but for the track. Keep riding and stay safe!
I'm in my late 40s and I ride for fum. I don't care aboot being sexy, or other people's thoughts aboot me being that I'm 380 Ib rider on a cb500f. I love riding and just seeing the sites.
mid 40’s and don’t know if it was luck or lack of money but was never fortunate to own anything above 550. Now on a Navi I can’t get a cop to look at me if I tried.
CC we love you little brother, you should start having live youtube video chats with your fans once a week, just keep your helmet on to keep your identity hidden and let us come in and chat with you in live time.
I fully agree with superbikes not making any sense on the road when the only way that you can use all the power is by breaking speeding laws, if people are using them for the track then that's perfectly fine though.
It costs police a lot of money to call out the chopper, they REALLY have to want you. That rider must have been an annoyance to them for some time. They also try to get you when you post "smack down" videos on UA-cam. Police will show up at your door. lol It has happened to a few motovloggers.
Good Point !!!! .. I just turned 49 Last Month on Oct 13th … I’ve SEEN ( First Hand ) and heard ALOT of my Friends from Childhood Die on Motorcycles !!!!! So Ride Your Ride … Don’t Try and Show Out for all the World to See !! Because Once “YOU DIE “.. From riding your Bike !! YOU CAN’T Apologize to The Ones That LOVE That’s Waiting On YOU to get HOME SAFELY !!! REAL TALK !! Just Think About It For A Moment !!! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
🤣 Age is relative, for people in their 60's and 70's say 50's young while teens call people in their 30's old. It is always irritating to hear people talk about being old, self-defeating talk. I love to see the people who always keep it youthful and positive. I have a friend in her 30's talk about how she is old now. lol 😔 However, having kids does that to some people. lol I never had kids, never got married and thus never grew up. lol
What's the prevailing reason that AUTO enthusiasts buy a particular SUV, TRUCK, or CAR? Their personal image, what they believe others will think when they see them, how the exhaust tone makes them feel (powerful, or manly). Same thing applies with motorcycles.
Who’s said that we’ve been trying to to get you on a big land yacht not Ducati “cruiser” that’s really somewhere in between cruiser and sports bike you need a 1000lb big bike.
I hate to say this but I fear this outcome for 650ib and all his friends. These guys are really reckless! He's in his 50's and he should know better! I like the guy but damn!!
Actually, Donnny Brasco (who I mentioned in this video) that got killed while speeding was part of his crew. Some people get older but not wiser and have to learn the hard way. I hope not but the more you speed the closer you are to the grim reaper, it is like playing Russian roulette.
@@CycleCruzaHe's the one who commented on my post on the video you posted before this vid 😅. Actually, it was the video you did on the 2025 honda cb 1000 hornet
I remember when CycleCr 12:28 uza looked cool. Back in the old days he had the CB1000RR and he was cool. Now he's just another old fart on a slow bike. Next he will get a GS to ride to Denny's on😂
I never did a video on the transition from young to old rider. This video is in response to those commenters who clowned on me about acting like the old dude who says get off his lawn by talking down on superbikes in my "Superbike Poser" video. I've done a video on just about every topic on motorcycles over 14 years on UA-cam. .

Riding for over 15 years now and I don't think I'll ever change. My daily is still a 2018 R6 and it's soon to be paired with a new R9. As they'll rotate being the daily. I can't ever see myself getting another naked bike as I've owned an MT07 and MT09 SP or much less getting an ADV or cruiser. I'll just keep my 2 fast bikes and my lil Grom as my stable.
Great to see you still riding. I find it enjoyable having a mix of different bikes but by far the most fun bike is my YZ450FX supermoto. The fast bikes make you speed which is like giving a crack pipe to an addict and telling him/her not to smoke it. lol I detailed that addiction in my "Throttle Crank Syndrome" video: ua-cam.com/video/OKVGnjx5Lr0/v-deo.html
I'm chill on ADV and Harleys as well, but I treat the MT-07 as my cruiser and love it. It has more bottom end grunt than a R6 ever had. You have to crank up the RPMs to get power out of a R6 as you know., amazing track weapon tho, it helped my cousin win races and become a professional racer.
Almost 50, sitting here in my old man robe and fuzzy slippers, drinking coffee and looking at TW200s. There's a lot of obscure fishing spots and little trails here that would be perfect for a little bike like that. Never had a small off road capable bike. Looks like so much fun.
So I’m not the only one?! Thank god 🙏🏼😂
Yup, 52 here & in hindsight if I could go back 30 yrs.... Instead of buying a fast sport bike, I would have bought a good mid size, multi purpose, dual sport or adventure bike that got good mpgs & could do a bit of everything.
The TW200 looks like a good candidate for actually riding around the world. Beats dropping a 1200GS in Mozambique or Mongolia.
@@michaelbrinks8089 I started on a Vulcan 750 decades ago but I still remember a little Honda Monkey sitting next to it in the showroom. Had a lot of fun on the Vulcan but I always wonder....what if I had started on the Monkey.
Just posted my anniversary edition r1 for sale. No more sport bikes for me. My wr250r is all I need now
Nice! Dual sport and supermoto life is way more fun and safer. Enjoy!
I guess I consider myself an older rider now and I will always consider myself a sport bike rider. I got my first new Harley, a Fat Bob a couple of years ago. About to get a new Road Glide CVO ST as a 2nd bike when the ‘25s drop. I didn’t get a Harley because I got older. I got a Harley because they finally built something I liked.
Have a fast H-D 48 Sportster (Stage 3). Just bought a KLX 230sm and love it!!
Awesome vid! I'm 65.
I am old. lol. It just makes me think more about the repercussions of getting in trouble. I can have fun without getting in trouble.
You are wise and made it to your age, many don't. You are blessed. Keep riding and staying safe!
I’m in my mid 40s now, and have really enjoyed moving to dirt and unmaintained roads…I can go hours without seeing anyone. Zero chance of being hit by someone texting and driving, or not paying attention. Much more relaxing now, safe travels all.

I gave up on superbikes when i stopped doing track days. It just wasn't worth it to ride like that on the street. It wasn't for a lack of skill it just stopped being fun. You get to a point where you just want to ride and see the world instead of chasing the perfect line or acting a fool on the road. Some of us dont need the drama that comes with it.
@@LathanM - can’t I have both?
I ride somewhat chill… and like to squeeze extra power when the conditions allow for it

I got started too late, but not stopping. For the year I have lol. 46 now. It will be 2 wheels as long as can. If can't do moto I'll go back bicycle. Need to do that anyway. Have not rode bike long time. 1 bike broke, scooter just took out battery. High potential for moving before next season.
65 and still feel 25! Have had 35 bikes from Dual purpose to Sport tourers to Full sport bikes 250's to 900's and happiest now on my 250 naked comfortable all round semi sport bike virtually like your MT07 but smaller (CBF 250 05 model in Gloss Black) It does all I want to do, Nippy, handles great, will cruise at 100kmh all day (60 in US terms), being a smooth single with dual balance shafts, has a nice little throb yet stock exhaust so not so annoying (Because small bikes sound cheap and nasty with loud pipes in my books) Enjoy your talks! (Along with Sean from SRK)
That plus, if a cager sees your 300 yards away they think they have time to pull out, they think youre doing the speed limit they don't realize the moto is doing 140 on a 60mph road
It is like playing Russian Roulette when you speed.
41 and been on raw sportbikes since I bought a GSXR750 brand new my senior year in high school. Did trackdays, and amateur racing. Been there done that. Recently switched to a sport tourer to slow down a bit. No regrets.
Thank you for giving us safety tips. I have a sport bike Gixxer but I drive by the speed limit.
Nice, stay safe! Take it to the track for proper fun.
sport bikes look cool, they are light weight, have good electronics and tires. I think the naked bikes are the key really. They have all the sport bike benefits for the street and none of the drawbacks. honestly sport bikes are meant for riding on a track. There are so many different bikes I want just to experience them. It is really difficult to make an informed decision on what bike to get when you are just watching reviews and stuff.
I took my XSR900 to the track recently; other than an N3 shock and a largish fly windscreen (I know, contradiction in terms), it had no modifications and was as fast as I dared. Yeah, sportbikes are for the track but these hyper nakeds are just a tick behind while having ridiculously low insurance rates.
In my selfish opinion, we should encourage go-fast people to go to sportbikes. Seasoned riders will ride naked bikes. If go-fast riders start buying naked bikes in vast numbers, then they'll start crashing them in vast numbers, bringing unwanted attention and higher insurance rates.
Well there are people that take sportbikes on tour from UK to Finland, Poland. They take sportbikes like the bmws1000rr R1Liz from UK does
@@steve00alt70 The BMW S1000RR is the odd creature out. When it first came out, it was pushed to be a sportbike by BMW but eventually most people who bought it used it as a sport-tourer. Eventually, the S1000RR was offered with heated grips, cruiser control, and hard panniers (via Hepco & Becker), and the insurance rates are one of the lowest of the sportbikes. So people are not really buying the S1000RR as they would a Suzuki GSXR1000...they're buying them as more premium Suzuki GSXS1000's.
The naked bikes are even better for the street and nearly as lightweight and tuned with more bottom end grunt but less top end power that you don't need on the street. I love the naked bikes but you can get crazy on some of them too like the Ducati Streetfighter V4, that bike is a beast. Stay safe!
I’m 53, 26 years ago I bought a 1998 cbr900rr, rode it for 3 years, then a gsxr 750, then I went through some ninjas, currently riding a 2020 mt07, I’m trading it in this year, and I’ll be darned if I’m not cross shopping cruisers and ADV bikes. lol the timing on this video was almost perfect.
73 old love my modded mv agusta brutale 800 few changes to a supermotard ,it's all about throotle,still get the thrills sensible upright naked bikes are the go ,like you cyco ,when I meet young guys on sportbikes they want to race me i say upfront to them i can go fast but choose to live longer to
I'm old and still ride a sport bike......
Great to see you riding! Stay safe!
Nice video cycle cruza thanks.
I'm 56 and love doing track days on my FZ1. Would love to sell it, and "downgrade" to an XSR900...
52, if I had money & multiple bikes I'd still have a fast sport bike...But if I can only have 1 bike, then I want a mid size, good mpg, multipurpose bike. That can do a bit of everything.
I've been riding since 1977, and I will say... There are old riders and bold riders, but not to many old bold riders. Ride your ride.
I rode the super bikes, my first bike was a 86 gpz900r ninja,now I’m 55 and riding a 23 mt07 and just enjoying the ride! Gonna look into the r9 though,but I never buy a first year model
You the man cycle cruza super authentic
GD, ma man gets it 🎉👍🏿
I am an old rider, 64 years old. I am here to tell you the fast bikes ARE more fun. It's not about pure speed; it's about cornering and leaning and precise lines. Power and control. I just put a deposit on a new GSX-R750. Insurance wrote off my old one. For the record, I was going very slow when I wrecked my old one, due to very bad fog. I understand if you are afraid to go fast and push your limits. Ride your own ride! Track riding is expensive. Been riding since 1986.
I agree. I have a 22 ninja 400 and I am 47. I like to ride my ride. I am not out there trying to speed race or wheeling for what. I have people I have to come home. I have been following you for years….
Nice bike! Great to see you riding and have good sense. Thank you for being a long time viewer. I appreciate. Stay safe and keep riding!
I'm 63,been riding over40 years and prefer a sport touring motorcycle. I like to be easy rider at times but still enjoy the speed.
Soon as I hit 30 been looking at adventure bikes. Did sportbike and mx stuff in my 20s. I wanna travel and catch scenery. Still got my honda cb919
I'm with GrandpaCruza on this one!😜🛵
🤣 Not yet, I still haven't given up the supermoto hooligan life.
@@CycleCruza Supermoto hooligan 4 life!
Biggest advice I can give to the younger/new inexperienced riders-
Avoid group sport bike rides. It’ll make you ride beyond your skill level just to keep up with everyone. Ride your own ride and stick with closer friends who understand your beginner skillset. And dress for the slide, even if you’re “just going across town”. Keep the rubber side down and be alert out there please.
I think that the word that we are looking for is discipline. In my country people on 125 to 80 cC bikes get killed or injured everyday. I like to think that people should be able to get whatever they want as long as they are willing to learn. Hard heads lead to hard knocks basically.
50’s and enjoy my GSXR750…will get a Suzuki z900 rs se retro next year…but I’m keeping the sport bike
the cruiser bikes are a nice ride
Not on my back and butt lol forward controls are especially uncomfortable. Id rather sit upright on a dirt bike/dual sport
Yeah it is nice to just chill and cruise, take in the scenery and feel the torque and hear that beautiful exhaust note.
I'm 61 years old and on my 10th motorcycle. I've had three motorcycle accidents without a scratch because it's always been performance motorcycles and the gear we ride with.. ( sport bikes) I just traded in my 2015 FZ 09 for a 2023 KLR 650. I just could not stop speeding.. 😂
I'm over 50 and have been doing track days for seven years. Couldn't afford it when I was young and dumb.
Your problem is not speeding, is turn signals 🤣
Fact! 🤣 Still a problem for me after 14 years on UA-cam. 😔
Yup, getting ready to order a Brand new 2025 DRZ400SM, new body style, can't wait.......
Cycle cruza, 2 2's haha, nice
I'm in my late 40's 70-90 hp and 45-65 ftpt is perfect for the street. Imo
Lol I am 60 and ride a triumph street triple
I’m 52. I will never give up my ZX10R…..
I just hope you are doing all of the crazy speeds at the track and not on the street. The ZX10R is a great bike but for the track. Keep riding and stay safe!
I started out on a Harley six years ago and I'm about to buy an Africa Twin, lol. I'm doing it backwards.
Been riding since the 70's. Riding a busa now in my 60's. Can't do mid and forward positions, just doesn't feel ride.
There are still but rare 90 yr old men still riding sportbikes, they must have been really fit before.
But they usually just cruise on it. I have yet to see a rider that age light up the streets. lol Reaction time is greatly reduced at that age.
I'm in my late 40s and I ride for fum. I don't care aboot being sexy, or other people's thoughts aboot me being that I'm 380 Ib rider on a cb500f. I love riding and just seeing the sites.
mid 40’s and don’t know if it was luck or lack of money but was never fortunate to own anything above 550. Now on a Navi I can’t get a cop to look at me if I tried.
CC we love you little brother, you should start having live youtube video chats with your fans once a week, just keep your helmet on to keep your identity hidden and let us come in and chat with you in live time.
I fully agree with superbikes not making any sense on the road when the only way that you can use all the power is by breaking speeding laws, if people are using them for the track then that's perfectly fine though.
An Elyria guy just got arrested for doing over 100. Cops followed him by air and he had no idea.
It costs police a lot of money to call out the chopper, they REALLY have to want you. That rider must have been an annoyance to them for some time. They also try to get you when you post "smack down" videos on UA-cam. Police will show up at your door. lol It has happened to a few motovloggers.
@CycleCruza They tried to pull him over and he ran. Seems like reason enough to lay down some justice.
Thank You Very Much For Sharing 👍
Good Point !!!! .. I just turned 49 Last Month on Oct 13th …
I’ve SEEN ( First Hand ) and heard ALOT of my Friends from Childhood Die on Motorcycles !!!!!

From riding your Bike !!
YOU CAN’T Apologize to The Ones That LOVE That’s Waiting On YOU to get HOME SAFELY !!!
REAL TALK !!

Low end torch yes lots of fun
58 and riding my KTM 690 Duke. Die Young....... as late as possible 😅
Hey, I’m 50, watch it calling us old 😅
🤣 Age is relative, for people in their 60's and 70's say 50's young while teens call people in their 30's old. It is always irritating to hear people talk about being old, self-defeating talk. I love to see the people who always keep it youthful and positive. I have a friend in her 30's talk about how she is old now. lol 😔 However, having kids does that to some people. lol I never had kids, never got married and thus never grew up. lol
You still old. I'm 38.
I went the opposite route, naked to a 2000 929rr.. 42 years old here 😂😂😂
What's the prevailing reason that AUTO enthusiasts buy a particular SUV, TRUCK, or CAR?
Their personal image, what they believe others will think when they see them, how the exhaust tone makes them feel (powerful, or manly).
Same thing applies with motorcycles.
What do you think about isle of man TT Make a video on that topic 😊
What happened to your 690 ktm did you sale it
46 and still riding my 600rr
Fast young riders have served the public well for organ donations.
Gray hair gray and a gray beard could be a sign you are a old biker. Older bikers tend to like cruisers and old school styled motorcycles.
Like pilots, there are old riders and bold riders but no old bold riders.
Just traded my Aprilia RSVR for an MT09SP because it hurt my wrists and back.
Is "THE MAN" making you do these videos for community service.🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Who’s said that we’ve been trying to to get you on a big land yacht not Ducati “cruiser” that’s really somewhere in between cruiser and sports bike you need a 1000lb big bike.
Well, one sign is that my motorcycle license is old enough to vote.
I'm 65 and I will ride anything except a Harley Davidson 😊
Yamaha Davidson' nice haha.
*When you have nothing left to prove .
Naked bikes can save you from Harley hell, don't need ot go full on down the path of doom and eventually end up on a trike.
When you finally buy a Royal Enfield classic with your aged pension money. 👴👴👴👴👴👴👴
I want a Moto Guzzi V85TT. Just looks like fun to kick around on. A good bike for an old fart.
The government took money from the social security fund?
Open your neighbor's 2-story house front door...... and ride up staircases.
I agree 💯👍
I'm 51 , Love the sport bikes. I'm a Harley hater! Too expensive and the Harley Mentality almost killed my bro who rode a harley....now crashed.
I hate to say this but I fear this outcome for 650ib and all his friends. These guys are really reckless! He's in his 50's and he should know better! I like the guy but damn!!
Actually, Donnny Brasco (who I mentioned in this video) that got killed while speeding was part of his crew. Some people get older but not wiser and have to learn the hard way. I hope not but the more you speed the closer you are to the grim reaper, it is like playing Russian roulette.
@@CycleCruza Yeah, I remember Donnie Brasco. Sadly it's just not if but when...You do you. Stay safe out there homie!!
I'm the only real biker that I know of in real life. I've seen one other real biker on UA-cam
Keeping riding and staying safe!
@CycleCruza is a real one 🤜🤛I'll be riding when I'm 130 thanks to the carnivore diet
If you're like the " Homeless Trucker", you won't ever be cool, much less be cool again 😂😂😂😂
Who dat? lol
@@CycleCruzaHe's the one who commented on my post on the video you posted before this vid 😅. Actually, it was the video you did on the 2025 honda cb 1000 hornet
The transition should NOT be to harley! It should be from Sport Bike to Sport Touring ❤ (fjr1300, st1300, Concours)
💯!!!!
Or you start talking trash about Harley’s trying to convince yourself that there horrible but you’re honestly looking to purchase one
I remember when CycleCr 12:28 uza looked cool. Back in the old days he had the CB1000RR and he was cool. Now he's just another old fart on a slow bike. Next he will get a GS to ride to Denny's on😂
Do a cafe bike mean I getting old lol
Yeah it does 😊
First lol 😂
Cool to see y'all still doing that. lol
Geriatric motorbikers need side wheels...
lol...
🤣
Dude, you are recycling your videos now. You need to up the game as a content producer.
I never did a video on the transition from young to old rider. This video is in response to those commenters who clowned on me about acting like the old dude who says get off his lawn by talking down on superbikes in my "Superbike Poser" video. I've done a video on just about every topic on motorcycles over 14 years on UA-cam. .
