Please wear gear, your dad and family loves you lots just think about them every time you go out riding. Might be to hot or uncomfortable but it will save your life and your family will appreciate it. You are a beginner rider, so it’s not a matter of if but when r u going to drop the bike. Ride safe, congrats on the bike!
For making turns, the biggest thing is to hold the throttle, and slowly very SLOWLY release the clutch and if you feel as if the bike is going to drop because your holding it too slowly let the clutch go out a little bit. And you will shortly regain balance.
I bought a CFMOTO 650NK for my first bike a couple weeks ago and I still get nervous riding it sometimes hahaha. You're killing it though man, would be super helpful having a dad as supportive and into the hobby as you are. Ride safe brother
The more you think about what you have to do, the more you can make a mistake..I recommend work on knowing your friction zone. Also turning wide is because you are fixated on one spot, look where you want to go and the bike will follow. 😊
Words of wisdom with a whiskey in his hand! They dont make many like him any more! Your dad is epic bro. I keep telling my son to hurry up and get his license i need a riding buddy. Im gonna buy him a 450ss when he gets it! Stay safe keep your clutch covered and look through your turns 🙏
If you plan on towing the bike anywhere else, you will want some canyon dancers. Its a bar harness that gives the straps a tie point that is not the handle bars. Bro you did so much better than me so much faster. I had a blast watching this video. Nope not dropping it today!!! 😂🤣😅 Im laughing because I remember the stress and terror from the first ride. Scoot all the way up to the tank, tip toes on the pegs, push knees into the tank(fix the hip). My hands were numb for the first 3 weeks. I still hit the horn unintentionally ALL the time. Congrats on successful trip!!!!!!
Work on the friction zone and start small! Practice around the neighborhood at slow speeds just repetitively learning to smoothly stop then get up and go using the friction zone. Learn the clutch and feel the weight. If you have the money, I would highly recommend a safety course somewhere. I started off with 0 experience and just practiced the friction zone and rode around my apartment garage for like a couple weeks. I did the msf course and failed. I practiced more on the road and progressed slowly into more uncomfortable situations. I then got my endorsement through the dmv. Dont be afraid to make mistakes and to look like a beginner. We all had to learn and stall and drop the bike. Be safe and gear up! You got this bro!
haha remember me when i started haha, i've made aaaaall of your mistakes, have fun with it, the 450sr is a dream bike to start on, but wear all of the gears all of the time :)
in america, do you not get much bike training on the road? like what do they teach you as i see alot of new riders looking very sketchy on their first rides like they have had zero training few tips.. look where you wanna go, the bike will follow.. when slowly down and turn dont grip that front brake, bike will most likely wanna fall, only on straights apply that front brake with mix of rear. hope this helps, get yourself some riding gear and have fun
There are msf courses that about 70% of riders don't take here that's why the wreck and fatality rate in murica is way higher than countries where you have to work your way up. Here, you can go buy an rc8 and go from 0 to a red smear in 1.2 seconds as long as you have the cash
@ItsJustDrama I agree my son is 16 bout to get his license. I told him once he does ill pay the 400 usd and have him take the MSc and buy him his first bike. If he chooses to not.take the class and just ride we'll then I won't be riding with him and deff will not be buying him a bike! Let my uncle use my harley for 3 weeks to find out a couple months later he has never had an endorsement I was livid. He asked to borrow it again and I told him to fock off and let him know how pissed I was he took it to begin with without a license. I support growing with the bike not just buying whatever. I'm saving for a zh2 because I want one but it still scares me thinking how fast they are and is why I want it. Not the speed but the fear. The fear will keep my old arse in check and under 100mph. Have a epic day!
Cfmoto is the best choice I'm 6'3 as well and have been riding my 450ss for a year and zero issues I'm super comfortable on it and haven't outgrown it yet
im 6'1 and 160 pounds, i started on a ninja 650 last autumn, if you have the discipline to not whiskey throttle a bike, then parallel twins in the 600 range are ok as starters also.
Dude you really need training, msf, or at least a parking lot. Anybody can go straight and fast down the road. It's all the other stuff that keeps you safe on the road.
@@olheghtt don't worry I have a license and am a decent confident driver now. Had to back up Content tit ry to make consistent uploads, life's busy. Thanks brotha, ride safe out there 🙏
@@Zen450SSremember when you get comfortable....slow down ride safe my man but remember the msf course is very worth it it teaches you things for all riders new and old
"you look good, buddy." you have a amazing dad my friend.
Great dad. Welcome to the bike fam and ride safe, brother.
@@jeewonkim9989 thanks so much man, it's a pleasure. I will
Dad’s the real mvp excited for you supportive and it’s beautiful

love the fact of seeing a real beginners first time, you can tell when he finally gets that "bike love" in his voice. Love this!!!

I second this! Gear up so you can ride and stay in one piece! Gear is a must!
dress for the slide, not the ride
W dad!!!
@@biills I think so too! Thank you
Your dad is such a bop, really W dad ! that "you look good buddy" comment was so wholesome. Let your dad know your viewers appreciate him :)

Welcome to the cf moto fam 🖤 I got mine around 3 months ago and I love it.

So cool seeing you progress through the video man, great work!
You have to love it when you see a great dad like that supporting his kids choices

@@SimonRiley752 right on man, I'm having fun and getting better every day! Thanks for the tips bro
My mom is actively banning me from getting a bike and you’ve got such a supportive dad, I’m jealous brotha. All my life all I’ve wanted to do is ride.

good job man! you looked comfortable, enjoy the journey and ride your ride🤝🏼
Just started out on a Honda xr250, crazy stuff, keep riding and don’t die.

I’ve been looking at this bike for about 2 months now!! I can’t wait!! Nice vid bro! Remember I was one of the first when you blow up!! ✊ 💯 🔥
Thanks so much man I appreciate it! Quality is only going up from here so I hope so! See you around brother
You'll love it btw, it's very smooth
your dad is awesome man, I got my first bike 5 days ago, congrats!
Hell yeah man. This video was fun to watch and pretty helpful. Excited to start riding my new 450 as well🎉🎉
I wish my dad was that supportive
4:30 It's wonky because you're in 2nd gear going slow. It's a sportbike so don't shift up until your RPM's go higher.
Yes thank you!! I had so much learning to do this day!
I already subscribed hehehe Im also planning to buy my first bigbike once i got my driver's license next month. Ride safe sir.
Awesome that'll be fun dude! Keep working hard and make it real! Stay tuned for episode 2 coming soon :)
the bike came with the battery tender and yoshimura exhaust from the dealer? or you paid to install them? im getting mind this week im so hype
Yes, they charged for it but yeah they installed it. Thats awesome man good for you, you're going to have so much fun!
Just got a 450 too man all these tiny mistakes is what makes you better but your actually doin good man!!
Merica baby!! Said while riding a Chinese bike.
man, i hope i do half as good as you did here. great job even tho i have no clue what your doing
Stay safe brother 🙏🏻
Chill parents!

You can just straight up buy a bike without a license in America. Just dont get pulled over lmao

Lol gear is coming, i couldn't resist a day one ride under the guidance of papa Zen
@@Zen450SSi did mine with gloves but no helmet😂
