First bike was a 959. No riding experience ever. The thing with the 959 is the riding modes. Kept it at wet mode for a year. Grew into the race mode eventually and it completely transformed the bike.
bought a 959 with only 2 years experience.... im doing well riding it on sport, i think its fine you have to respect the machine at the end of the day......i think its very light for what it is Perolhead keeps saying its heavy......
I honestly think it's beginner friendly. I think growing with this bike has definitely made me a better rider without having to learn a new bike if I had moved up.
Good advice. I bought my 899 after spending 9 months riding a Grom (zero prior riding experience). Big step up, but it's not an intimidating bike. Yes the riding position takes a little getting used to, yes there's a ton of power, and yes at slow speeds it's heavy. But the torque is friendly, it's very stable, and in Wet mode I never felt like it was getting away from me. I followed my heart, and I don't regret it!
I actually got the 959 the first day i got my motorcycle license 😁 ... I agree with everything he said plus the seating position is very aggressive you will notice random pains here and there.... But I love my Ducati ♥️
Solid advice. Unfortunately many won’t listen but to each their own. No judgment here. This is my 4th bike and I went from a 300 to 600 to 675 and I can absolutely feel the power increase and touchy throttle response with this bike. No way I’d start off with this bike. A 300cc is a good bike to get your bearings and fundamentals down and most importantly confidence. The problem is it gets old fast. 3-4 months and I was ready for a 600cc. Everyone is different so that approach might not work for others but I wouldn’t change a thing in my progression. Solid review!
I bought my first bike as a beginner and it was the 959 too i finish the course i had a friend drive to my storage and will practice in the stroage area until im comfortable. The bike scares me though. The shop set it on wet mode etc. I learn on a 125cc grom.
I got a 959 as my first bike, have no rider experience what so ever, it’s a very fast and heavy bike for a first bike, I’m currently going to take lessons on it and build my way up, there’s no turning back at this point, but I’m trying to learn and gain more experience
I had ridden smaller 110cc bike as a commuter to school. When i first did my 650cc training, that bike weigh like a mountain to me. After spending 2/3 days with it inside the track, i get used to it. Almost fall and everything but i managed it. Then i decide to check some superbike, just to have a look and stuff, i tried to sit on this 959 Panigale, it feels like feather. Imagining the acceleration alone on this bike with that weight is really scary.
2019 959 panigale artic silk white one first bike only been riding 3 to 4 months and got it down pack y’all tell people not to get these bikes Man U can start on mostly anything take your time learn your bike I don max 145 on the interstate in 5 and 6 gear but that’s my max I just take my time watch the situations watch wat your doing ride smart ride speed limits .. u can start on sport bikes but first just take your time and learn and learn your bike ima take corse and I like watching y’all on UA-cam get y’all good riding tips and what not to do ... but the most important thing find y’all on riding styles... 💪🏿🤷🏿♂️💯 like if I until in 7 to 10 miles and hour I hold the clutch when I’m turning I and I’m turning at fast speed I hold the clutch to have my full control so now I can slowly put pressure on my brakes and make sweet swift turn come out the turn release clutch roll throttle easy regain gas and power and go I say this to say find your on riding styles and if in u turning a 7 miles in our ima hold the clutch so I don’t get that pull feeling or like the bike gon stop and throw me off and I had to learn but all my people want start big learn your bike take your time and y’all get it

"it had way too much power for me. I got into a small accident with that bike.... Someone rear-ended me" How does getting rear-ended have anything to do with too much power?
Learned to ride on a new KTM Duke 390 about 7 months ago. Went and brought a new Ducati Diavel S a month ago. Ita my dream bike but I’m still keeping the 390 for the cheaper ride.
Realy good vid 👍 I own one from a year, before i got a svs650 2 or 3 years, the 4th year i buy a 899 that i crashed myself (when i wait my friends in a wood zone 🙄🤦🏻♂️) and after i buy the 959. For its the best daily, powerful but not much, light and very handly. But defenitly notfor a beginner who will be scared or crashed. Like you said its almost a moto gp but not for the city (and you dont talk about the bbq she is ♨️😂😂) and like you told it its very expansive to buy, to maintain and unfortunatly to crash. I hot a past in biking but even with iti was fkd up when i come from 74hp to 149. Today i twist 16x hp but its not in 1 night. At first I won't it but today i won't sale it even for a v2 fk off the single arm she's too wonderful 🥰
My first bike was a Ducati Monster 750, purchased in 2014. Rode for 4 months and loved it. Sold it before a move and now I want to ride again but considering a 959. Am I good?
Thanks for laying out all the reasons instead of how the typical person just saying "No way" coz that makes a typical prospective Ducati owner want to do it even more, hahaha
I’ve started on a 400 and regret listening to normies because starting on a small bike is almost as bad as starting on a liter bike frankly start on a big bike and save yourself buyers remorse take it slow and respect your skill level and learn how your bike responds to you and practice daily
You bought a 400 but you didn’t do what needed to be done on that bike to learn skill.. you got bored because you kept squidding and it wasn’t fast enough for you. It’s like drugs.. smoke enough weed and it has no effect.. look for bigger drug. 400’s are the best to start on.. I have MANY videos on how to become a better rider FIRST then move onto bigger bikes. Don’t listen to this guy.
@@PetroHead I never said anything about it being easier that’s kind of why I said take it slowly and to respect your machine you know the whole staying within your limits, yea it also applies to liter bikes not only small displacement stuff
Ya ya.. you’re the typical get bored of small bike buy liter bike, learn nothing but just ride for the high type of rider. Why are you watching this video? It’s sensible advice for new riders. Disagree with me that’s ok but your reasons better be good. So far I’m not convinced. TBH I don’t really care. Do your thang.. just stay out of my comments section with advice unless you have good reason to leave one.
I started with SD1290 and DPV4 but now I want a 899 or i worst case a 959. And it just for the looks 😂 btw no courses 😂 your story is cute. But your courses did not keep you away from accidents...... was it the right way?
What if ive been riding motocross for awhile? Very good clutch control and skills on and off the ground… just sold my bike and getting out of motocross looking for something just as fun but on the road. Ive ridden a few other road bikes in the past and have a feeling the lower cc bikes will be underwhelming to me. Was looking for an r6 but the market for them is crazy
The problem isn't that you can't handle power, it's that you can and you don't have self control. Argue all you want but power is addictive and its effectiveness at making you feel the rush wears away with experience. What felt like power won't after a few months because like a drug, you need a bigger hit. Therefore, starting small and gradually working your way up will make you appreciate it and if you're smart, you will build skill along the way. Whatever do whatever you want.. no one listens. haha!
Naw! Get what you WANT PEOPLE…. YOU WILL REGRET NOT GETTING WHAT YOU WANT!!! He has been riding under 3 years , just respect the power and use your common sense
Ducati panigale V2 is my dream bike But I have only ridden 150 - 160 cc segment bikes ... V2 has 950 + cc Should I go with V2 in future Cuz I'm not a well experienced rider with speed of more than 110 +
Great video...just what i was looking for. I have the KTM RC390 (love it). Rode dirt bikes most of my life but finally got my road license. Doing all of the courses and learning on the track. Everything is going well but already looking to the horizon of once i am on my full license and my next bike. Do you think after a year on the KTM the V2 would be too much to move on too ? KTM is already frustrating me power wise
A year of riding 400 class bikes is enough I think. Just be an avid learner and you'll be alright. I am 1.5 years into riding and I never stop watching how-to style videos and continue to take courses to this day. I've also become an expert class track rider recently... Its all possible.
I agree, especially if you’ve been riding dirt bikes. The power band on any 2 stroke is far more manic, if you have good throttle and clutch control on a 2 stroke you can handle a sport bike. I started on an RM80, then RM125, then RM250. All 2 strokes. When I bought my first new road bike 1 1/2 years ago I got a 2022 Benelli Leoncino Trail 500 because it’s ergo’s are like a dirtbike. Very upright, pegs right under you, wide higher handlebars. Now that I’ve ridden a lot of different bikes, faired sports bikes are my favorite hands down. I like them for commuting as my 100 mile round trip commute is 99% highways and interstates, and 1% is city. I like fairings for the interstate, as my mornings in the spring and fall can be 20°F with afternoons in the mid 50’s and low 60’s. Wind protection is nice when it’s that cold lol. Upgrading in the spring myself as I paid my bike off within a year and am ready for something bigger. Just looked at a 2017 959! Also looking at a 2021 Supersport 950 and a 2022 GSXR 750. Rode a GSXR 600 for a bit this summer and loved it. The i4 is so buttery smooth and easy to ride and really screams when rev’d out…
I’m so tired of these same troupes. Look, buy what you intend to ride, because an over confident rider who’s used to a small bike starts from day 1 going to a larger bike. Different worlds. There’s an argument that litre bikes are more tame at low rpm levels, since throttle response isn’t as sensitive. Someone who doesn’t respect the bike and respect speed will make the same mistakes either way no matter the size of the bike. Probably better to be more intimidated for that reason by something bigger.
My friend sold his R1 to a 19 year old. A week later he got the call that the guy died. I’m giving advice to a general audience. If you have the acumen of an adult with amazing skills, grace and self control.. go buy whatever you want but also know that you’re in the top 5%… 95% of people should not be riding that bike as first bike. (R1 is just an example and so is the age 19.. u can have a 19 year old acumen at 40) Most people are DUMB.. there I said it. Sue me lol
HI MY FIRST BIKE IS BRAND NEW DUCATI PANIGALE V2 , I USED STM 959 DRY CLUTCH KIT PUPGRADED MY V2 . I'M 19 YEARS OLD NOW , I RIDE DUCATI . THANKS . KURURU .
Hi thank you for all your tips! I have a question please: Nowadays we have this A2 complaint and restricted in power by a 50% bikes like F900R with 48HP. Do you think one can grow his basic skills on the A2 F900R? Thank you 🙂🙏💨💨💨
It’s 48hp and 465lbs wet for 12-15K wherever you live. For 1/3 of the cost, buy a Ninja 400 that has over 40hp and weighs 370lbs and you can save a lot of money and have similar performance.. It’s a waste to buy a watered down F900R to learn on. Besides an F900R is not a good beginner bike.
@@PetroHead Thanks dude! I am trying to get as much information before I get my first bike so much appreciate your response and also thank you for your channel!
Please see my message sir I'm from india I have Yamaha mt15 with 155 cc engine and my dad had indian brand 130 cc bike ....I have 2 years of experience Should I go with V2 or 959 I'm afraid of high speed because I'm not a pro ...so I'm kind of scared !!
Speed is determined by you. You can go crazy even on a 400. However, the throttle response, weight and the thundering power for an inexperienced rider is where you draw the line. Riding for X amount of years has nothing to do with experience. Experience comes with mileage and skill.
my first beginner bike was honda MSX 125 2012... boy oh boy i upgraded to Ducati monster 796. went from 125 cc to 800... is one hell of a jump... spoilers alert.. i want to upgrade to 959. gotta be careful with these bikes.
3:31 150hp way to much power 😂🤣 cute. FYI it's never about the hp........ I've had 1290 sdr 3 v4 230hp + bikeks etc. 0 accidents 0 close calls 30 years of riding.......
Same here from I got a grom 2020 and a Suzuki gsx 250r it’s been a year I think I’m confident for a Ducati just a lil anxious for the power of this bike
Hahah I was just gonna DM you cause I was on my way to put down a deposit on either the V2 or a Supersport as my first bike (not beginner cause I have experience on a 160cc scooter and a few miles on my a few small bikes owned by my friends) Love your content tho ❤️
I really wanted the V2 in white but I guess I’ll go with the Supersport S with all the modes and stuff I think I’ll be able to handle it 👌🏼 or do you think I should get a V2 after all I have 6 years of riding experience but I’ve never had a bike like I said.
Gaurav Khanna the Supersport also has a lot of power. You can put the V2 in street mode with engine power set to low and the tech stuff like anti wheelie will help. I loved the V2 and it didn't feel intimidating at all. But you should rent one or at least test drive before buying.
Ignorant comment. I’ve owned 9 bikes in 4 years because I can and I did.. not because I was bored. I like new experiences.. I still miss my RC390 because it was a fun track toy for small tracks. But anyway, troll.. thanks for the comment. Now go watch another one.

I honestly think it's beginner friendly. I think growing with this bike has definitely made me a better rider without having to learn a new bike if I had moved up.
959 is a race bike. It’s 420lbs and for a race bike it’s light but for a first bike it’s heavy. First bike should be under 400lbs and 50HP or less.
@@PetroHead first bike should be what the person riding it feels comfortable with. Saying something should be this or that is just your opinion.
Good advice. I bought my 899 after spending 9 months riding a Grom (zero prior riding experience). Big step up, but it's not an intimidating bike.

The R6 is a much better bike. Ducati is just flash.
@@PetroHead yeah I miss my r6. Had to get rid of it 2 years ago. So for the price I’m paying imo it’s a steal.

Just respect the bike you buy and tone the settings low else trouble is going too happen

Things every parent loves to hear.
Hi thank you for all your tips! I have a question please: Nowadays we have this A2 complaint and restricted in power by a 50% bikes like F900R with 48HP. Do you think one can grow his basic skills on the A2 F900R? Thank you 🙂🙏💨💨💨
It’s 48hp and 465lbs wet for 12-15K wherever you live. For 1/3 of the cost, buy a Ninja 400 that has over 40hp and weighs 370lbs and you can save a lot of money and have similar performance.. It’s a waste to buy a watered down F900R to learn on. Besides an F900R is not a good beginner bike.
@@PetroHead Thanks dude! I am trying to get as much information before I get my first bike so much appreciate your response and also thank you for your channel!
8:51 150hp, cute😂
I know u got the reason Bro. But i dont give a sh*t ahahah Sorry man... You are right but i love Ducati...
Yea fuck it I'm getting it as a beginner
You fools.. you got your whole lives to ride. Instant gratification will teach you lessons you’re not prepared yet to learn.
I love ducati man 👍👍👍💟💟💟
Please see my message sir
I'm from india
I have Yamaha mt15 with 155 cc engine and my dad had indian brand 130 cc bike ....I have 2 years of experience
Should I go with V2 or 959
I'm afraid of high speed because I'm not a pro ...so I'm kind of scared !!
Speed is determined by you. You can go crazy even on a 400. However, the throttle response, weight and the thundering power for an inexperienced rider is where you draw the line. Riding for X amount of years has nothing to do with experience. Experience comes with mileage and skill.
my first beginner bike was honda MSX 125 2012... boy oh boy i upgraded to Ducati monster 796. went from 125 cc to 800... is one hell of a jump... spoilers alert.. i want to upgrade to 959.
gotta be careful with these bikes.
My first is a 899 panigale, never ridden before and it was easy, if you know how to use a car clutch ur good just dont be dumb lmao.
3:31 150hp way to much power 😂🤣 cute. FYI it's never about the hp........ I've had 1290 sdr 3 v4 230hp + bikeks etc. 0 accidents 0 close calls 30 years of riding.......
going from a grom to a 959 🤝🥵
Same here from I got a grom 2020 and a Suzuki gsx 250r it’s been a year I think I’m confident for a Ducati just a lil anxious for the power of this bike
7:16 😂 cute.... 150hp.....
If anyone this this is a suitable beginner bike then stay driving cars. Stupid statements im reading here
Not gonna lie when I opened the video and saw the intro I expected to see 800,000 subs XD
One sub at a time, I’ll get there! Hopefully +1 from you as well.
Hahah I was just gonna DM you cause I was on my way to put down a deposit on either the V2 or a Supersport as my first bike (not beginner cause I have experience on a 160cc scooter and a few miles on my a few small bikes owned by my friends) Love your content tho ❤️
One step ahead of ya.. 😁
I really wanted the V2 in white but I guess I’ll go with the Supersport S with all the modes and stuff I think I’ll be able to handle it 👌🏼 or do you think I should get a V2 after all I have 6 years of riding experience but I’ve never had a bike like I said.
@@gauravkhanna9125 160cc scooter to 955cc super bike? You know my answer.
PetroHead haha sir yes sir!
Gaurav Khanna the Supersport also has a lot of power. You can put the V2 in street mode with engine power set to low and the tech stuff like anti wheelie will help. I loved the V2 and it didn't feel intimidating at all. But you should rent one or at least test drive before buying.
Ninja 400 is the best beginner bike
He sounds like a mother.
His KTM was a waste of $ . In less than a couple years he bought two bikes . That’s why he regretted it. ….
Ignorant comment. I’ve owned 9 bikes in 4 years because I can and I did.. not because I was bored. I like new experiences.. I still miss my RC390 because it was a fun track toy for small tracks. But anyway, troll.. thanks for the comment. Now go watch another one.
Just get a scooter 👍🏻
