I don't have a stable income daddy yam, so I guess I'll just have to stick to my bicycle and the revving sounds i make myself. ;-;
Messy Queen same
You don't need to resort to that. Some clothes pins and a few playing cards from a discarded deck against your spokes will have that BBRRRRRRRPPPPPP going every time you are!
@@purplemongoose4887 lmao noted
Same :( Full suspension at least though
If you don't mind learning to do most of your own maintenance, you can get a motorcycle for not that much more than a new bike these days.
Especially, if you're willing to shop for parts at swap meets and trade work for parts. I forget which channel it was, but I saw one where they got all their necessary gear and the motorcycles for under $2k. And it may have been $1k.
IIRC, it was the motorcyclist magazine channel.
Get a turbo busa
Dated bike, slightly over rated and not exactly pretty. Just my opinion though.

I found a "free" motorcycle by a dumpster. Took 300 days of fighting with the state for the title and repairs but it's now mine!
If you don’t mind me asking,
What brand/model of bike was it.
@@aaronmeyers8227 2005 Kawasaki Z750S. Sold it a month ago to make room in the garage. After I move, I intend to get a better bike.
Robert Hill, ok thank you
In terms of helmet, take account of the weight too. Cheaper ones are usually very heavy, if you're on a medium to long riding session. It's gonna hurt your neck.
a good way to train your neck muscles ;)
I got a sweet deal on Facebook for a 2013 Ninja 300, it only had 65 miles. Person who bought it rode it and decided it was too dangerous. 2.000 bucks later she was mine. Bought it not even a year ago.
I need something like that
Anybody who thinks a 300 is too dangerous needs a cage
@@Promethyl 300 cc supermoto yes can be dangerous, but not the ninja 300. Those offroad bikes just have so much power made for climbing hills and doing jumps
What?! No... What?! Impossible... really?! hmmm... I want one too D: How on everything that's holy, can you sell an almost new ninja 300 for 2.000 bucks... you really hit a lucky shot there
@@Promethyl don't be dumb, every motorcycle is dangerous, even a bycicle is.
I like how he used Stevie t with spinners as a clip
lol rip stevie
yeah i laughed so hard i know the video XDDDD
Yea😂

What everyone told me when I started ‘All you need is a small cheap bike and you’re all set up’
What people didn’t tell me ‘Insurance, road tax, helmet, boots, gloves, jacket, pants, summer gear, winter gear, maintenance, mods, security, more security because London, security again because the first chain got destroyed by thieves...
Personally I believe it’s all worth it, my bank on the other hand, does not.
MASTER SHOCKZ it went to around the 70 mark, just enough to hit the speed limit. Just... 😅 Although I’ve upgraded to an MT07 now 😚 do it! It’s pretty time consuming but the end result is worth it.
@@Shoukath_Ali a CBR500r would be a good alternative and potentially cheaper, though that's debatable since I saw one last night on CL for $4,000 and an MT-07 right next to it for 3800, the MT was even newer too. a Ninja 250 is a great one too, my first bike was a Ninja 250 and I talked the guy down to 950 for it.
@@Shoukath_Ali my income isn't stable either 😂 I'm a 16 year old who's income consists of a weekly check of about $80 from limited hours at Olive Garden. I'm just a kid with the drive to ride so I made it work.
@shadrock99 get a used grom for like 2k. and if you dont own clothes than thats too bad. I hope you guys fix the UK tho
Road tax?????
A tip, keep 3-4 egg cartons for small bolts, and you can label each section for where the bolt came from.
😆😁
HAHA does ANYONE think they can buy a used helmet. that's like buying a used condom
riley dalisa just getting into ridding. I will be buying new helmet. Everything else will be used except for the bike which I got new
@@sh9683 why tho
Nvm. Bought a new jacket also. Was on sale. Got a steal of a deal.
@@sh9683 Why did you buy a new bike tho? It would've been better to buy a cheap one and get a new one after gaining more experience. Btw, What bike?
What's wrong with using used condoms? They're tried and tested. Prelubed inside and out too!
You are one of the most sensible and informed motorcycle video personalities. I especially love the fact that you refer to other motorcycle channels in some subjects. Great job. Keep it up.
Great to see you getting active & doing some new stuff on your channel, Yammie! Keep it up 👍
You on fire Mr Yamm.
You made a mad comeback with those frequent uploads. WOW 😮
Those facts at the end always get me.😂😂😂
what’s really funny is that even though I am writing a 49 mC Dongfang many of these tips and treasures are really helping me learn and operate my motorcycle shape scooter. Because of the body shape and dynamics of it it operates more like a motorcycle minus the lack of speed.Many of the rules to the road that he is talking about applying and some of the elements of safety and precautions I have been experiencing myself as a new writer who will eventually upgrade to motorcycle
That wallet looks dope! I’m getting one.
Great job on the sponser tie in. Very authentic and It didn’t seem forced or awkward.
Gotta say man, I was all on the Yammie hate train but when the whole GA/TX motovlog clique started picking on you after your crash I unsubscribed from them. What a terrible thing to do to one of our fellow motobros just because said motobro makes “list” videos. Which are highly entertaining and quite informative.
Better than their click-bait crap. You know, the videos where the title references one topic which takes 2 mins to cover, but the video is a 10 min video of useless bs.
Love ya, Papa Yam. Glad you didn’t change for anyone, and continued to get better. You do you.
Hey, I hope you weren’t throwing shade at Stevie T? That guy is a proper dude
I couldnt work it out either haha.
I love this channel because you recommend other channels and help them out, making the the online biking community, a community.
Hard agree with the craigslist bike part. I managed to get an 80hp Yamaha Fazer 700 for $950, that kind of performance would cost you at least $5000 new.
Lol you got an old motorcycle.. That's why it was cheap, not because you snagged a "deal" lol. And $5000 will put you well over the 100 HP mark with supersports. My Yamaha FZ6 makes close to 100 HP with an exhaust.
my first bike was a 73' cb360 i got for $600. sold that for 1k, kept trading up and now im onto the best bike ever, the 690 enduro R
@@KrestenGiese it still was a deal though and he got a lot of bike for cheap
@@KrestenGiese also the fz6 wasnt 5000 new
@@KrestenGiese yeah sure dude you can buy a new bike plus a tune and exhaust for $5000. Cool story bro.
Yammy, I snagged a FREECYCLE from a friend who had it in the barn. Barn finds are pretty awesome and occasionally free (or super cheap) to a good home with a toolbox. Right now I'm reving on my '79 Honda and wrenching on a '74. #barnfind
Helped a ton!! Thanks Yammie!
Thanks for the great advice Yammie 👍🏻
This video helped me out so much with my new Grom build series channel! Good stuff!
I’m getting my first bike in a few months I’ve decided on a Honda Rebel 500 but before that gotta spend some $ on gear tools and all the essentials thanks for the help papa Yam
Papa yam! I love your videos and I came to this one looking for some affordable gear recommendations. Do you think you could give us a video on that? Maybe the best and cheapest brands for each peace?
Loved the tips 👌🏻 I'm right at the beginning process of getting my motorcycle license. Signed up for a riding course here at the Harley Davidson near me . Pretty excited
I've never had a liscense in 35 years of riding on and off! No need for one if you don't plan on stopping!lol
@@travissearles23 yeah, because they’re not gonna catch you sooner or later.
@@chalkdemon8019 Only if I wreck or run out of gas!
great work once again, Rammy Lube!
My exception to the whole used helmet rule is someone I know sold me an AGV GP tech 5-continents for $75 dollars because he up and quit when his best friend died on a ride with him. He’s worn the helmet for a long time and maybe dropped it from his hand once or twice. I wear the shit out of this helmet for casual rides. I changed out the padding inside and got a new visor and the helmet is amazing, super vented, super light carbon fiber shell, I just love it.
True that. Cheapest part of all of this is buying the bike. It’s everything else after that breaks the bank. Good tips. I do the ziplock bag of bolts tip all the time too.
The factory repair manual is the first thing one should buy. They have cool pictures. And words.
The plug as the last tip, wooooooww. Next level slide-in
Wow! You this is a great video! Thanks for sharing
Love your insight, thanks for helping riding community!
Love Vikingbags. I just wish shipping to Canada was less expensive, bc I'd buy more.
@@rtogurl Yes, we need to get a warehouse in Canada to make it easier.
@@VikingBagsYT
When you do, your Canadian sales will probably skyrocket.
Lmao I love the Avdoll JoJo meme you put in there you’re a god 😭😭
I love how he used stevie t for the small brained, love ya steve
Dear yam. In my first year of riding I engine swapped and 07 fz6 with an r6 engine. And I didnt die. I love you
CL in winter! Especially after Xmas! Like a budgie: Cheep!
Yammie my guru i am just a beginner watch your learned a lot definitely getting the wallet.
Good to see you're back to making videos again, youtube is boring when yammie is on hiatus
Nice info, thanks dude!!! 😁
Every motorcycle I owned was from Craigslist. I started with a 2000 vstar 650, sold it bought a 2001 Honda shadow ace 750, sold it Then jumped in the deep end with my 2003 Honda VTX1800. I also have a zx10r and a liter cbrr. All from craigslist. Just have to maintain them. Good vid.
That brought back a memory, bought a race 9 hundred dollar race car when I received it and opened up the box expecting to see my beautiful race car,Hell no . 39 bags of parts and pieces.after a couple of hour's it was all together and it was beautiful
today i fell from my scooter and now i'm in bed with all my body feeling like shit so thanks for keeping me company with your videos man
WAS THAT A MFKING JOJO REFERENCE???
YES!! YES!! YES!! OH MY GOD!!
YES, IT WAS
i like the way you explain things, Yammie Noob, you're the 1st bike channel i ever subed
Same
Great vid
Well guitarrist and motorcycle guy here, never thought to see Steve t doing a cross over in a slammy dude video😂
Nice vid Yam can defo recommend Ryans vids too great info.
I completely agree, do your own tire changes. It is so worth the savings doing them yourself and it’s relatively easy, especially if you use dyna beads to balance the tires (Which work great by the way).
Cool video man I in joy your contents.
“Do you name a loved one you plan on giving away?”
I hope you name your daughter if you have one.
I got a Shoei RF-1200 with a photochromatic lens as my first helmet. Yeah, I had to save up almost $600 but saved about $150 by not getting a helmet with graphics on it (went with matte black). It cost a lot but it's the only helmet I have/need. The lens changes tint based on the light so I never need to switch out visors plus it has a pinlock so it never fogs up. The vents and visor work well sitting straight up and in a tuck also. I ended up saving money in the long run by not needing to buy 4 different cheap helmets with 2 sets of light and dark visors. Plus comfort IS a part of safety. If you're comfortable then you pay more attention to the road and not to your discomfort.
My guy, back at it again
Yes! More vids!
A fork seal driver is too damn expensive my friend and I just got a lot of pvc couplings and a hammer. And it works.
Love your vids and defo going to be continuing to watch them, and how’s this for a story, I’m 17 and own and ride a 1983 Yamaha venture royale that I got for free........ hopefully I can sell it and work my way up to a Kawasaki z650 or a Vulcan s Abs.... anyways keep up the awesome vids. And stay safe on the road my friend
"freedom and terror". Yup, that about sums it up.
i love your videos!
Love this dude!!!!
I love the "and terror" part when he says "don't live the freedom and terror as much as you thought" lol.
6:30 this happened to me I bought a bike that had 2 previous owners bot only 3500km on it. The thing is basically brand new and is awesome to handle.
I figured i just had to comment on buying a used bike. I grew up a car guy and let me tell you ALL of it transfers. If you want a cheap ass bike and it runs well, might be a good buy. Just depends on what you want. I know from the car game that projects are an endless abyss that you throw money down. If you want a project to have fun and make memories with this might be your best bet. I had an 09 Ninja 650 as my first bike that ran well but i put work into until i was satisfied. I broke even selling it to a friend. Fast forward 2 years later to now i got into riding again and bought a “running” 99 gsxr 600 for 800. About 400 bucks later runs phenomenally. If you love a fun project and have the know how, you can easily justify it.
😂 love the last line…..what a nerd….perfect delivery 🤣
Agree on the tires. I bought the tools needed to change them and my first new tire for less than it would have cost t have the shop put it on so the tools are paid for instantly. And the bike rides better with the discount tire from Amazon than it did with the OEM tire it had when I bought it.
what do you think about your dianese spr jacket??? i was thinking about getting one.. they are on sale at my local cycle gear
Funny , I just bought my bike off of Craigslist. Suzuki Bandit 1100s . Pristine condition . Barely worn tires. Couldn't find a scratch on it .
Best part? Got it for $1500 . All my buddy that have new/newer bikes said I "stole" it . So yeah , you CAN get a great deal on used if your patient and pay attention when looking a bike over .
I like that choice of bike. Not an obvious choice, but a good one.
Bro the SCR 950 clips I had to like The video regardless of the content but as always great content keep it up man love you shit ... as in video not ur actual shit just being clear
Yammie,a little love here please.😜
Smooth plug my dude. XD
yammi can part out a triumph without any tools

Bike maintenance is like people, you can do regular maintenance or you can waste all the money you have trying to save something that's never coming back when it's too late.
Change the oil, lube the chain, maintain tire pressure...Honda maintenance.
The “dont buy in peak season” tip is very true.
Loved the Stevie T fidget spinner cameo lol I watch his guitar videos 😂😂😂
I got a free bike and it’s a true beauty my pops gave me a 91 Suzuki gsx 600 katana and all it needed was a battery and some basic maintenance🏍
Got a 2001 Sportster 1200 for $1300 and it's been spot on for a while
4:43 I didn’t know your ride in Newhope!
Forks are one of the easiest maintenance jobs I’ve ever learned with no special tools can still be done
At about time 4:50 there was talk of carbon fiber helmets . Over the years I've only once seen a photo of a motorcycle helmet with an "Aluminum Shell". It was a happy story in an American motorcycle magazine from back in the eighties of a father and son that had started their own business . They produced just under 1000 units, but for some reason no more . Do you know of any other aluminum helmets ? Why do you think that the market place doesn't have any ? It seems quite straight forward to me to use a metal shell to protect peoples heads from danger .
OAs helmet tip: Get last years model. Shops will slash the price on last years helmets to get them out of inventory so they can buy new ones.
I do all Maintanance myself. except tyres, brake fluid and valve adjustments. Yeah and welding....
All other work is easy.
What is the fattest and best forks in suspension that I can put on a 2009 Kawasaki Ninja 250R I need to replace the forks the shocks the triple tree and the handlebars so I wanted to make them thicker so they could hold more weight
2:47. Bon Jovi back in the good old days!,
Love the stevieT clip there 😂🤣
Mentioning a quarter of a brain while also showing stevet. Thank you so much Scrammy Lube.
Hey Yammie Noob, where's the link to the discord server?
My starter bike is a Gsxr 750. Still got it.
Yammie is the best
I can get a new Ninja 400 for $4100 or 4500 with abs. Should I wait for fall discount? I’ve wanted a bike for 30 years and I noticed the price and I’m chomping at the bit! I just bought gear and watching every how to video. From 13-20 I rode dirt bikes so just now learning counter steering. Should I save to buy used? I’m tempted to finance new cuz it’s dirt cheep...
Honestly on helmets you should look into move then just comfort and protection features. I bought a helmet that came with a separate anti fog visor that sticks to the actual visor and its been a pain in the ass because it lost its adhesive and scratched like crazy and tightening it was a pain, the way to remove and wash the padding it a pain and the seal on the visor isn't waterproof so in heavy rain it leaks in.
Ask these questions before buying. Save yourself a world of pain.
Love that Stevie T. feature lol

Tire mounting tip: Shop around, you might find a shop that will mount and balance tires for free if you buy them there and bring the wheels in with you. Cycle Gear sucks: decent price but they charge a premium to mount them. My local Big Four dealer matches internet prices and mounts for free.
orangelion03 my tip: look up using zip ties to mount tires. I was skeptical but it has worked astonishingly well every time I’ve done it.
Or just buy some tire irons for like $5 each....
Pat W Are you some kind of super genius? I didn’t even consider to use my tire irons, or to go buy those$5 high quality irons you see for sale everywhere. I’ve changed tires before Pat, there was a Shinko Raven I just. Could. Not. Get. On. Using. Every. Conventional. Trick. I. Knew.
@@kevinwhite4494 is this Kevin White my fellow R1200GS rider and neighbor in Santa Paula? =D
Prolly not, as "my" Kevin has a tire changing stand that I always forget he has...
orangelion03 this is the Kansas Kevin white on an XR650L. He sounds like a good friend to have!
Clickbait title but really quality video and content. Thanks! 🎉🎉🎉
Where did you get that red iridium visor for your Arai?!
Here in South Africa, we don't bother with "riding season". We have good enough weather to ride all year round :-). Thus, the point you made on when to buy a mtorcycle, is unfortunately not applicable here in SA lol.
