Now last year i did my unrestricted licence but decided to wait until next year for buying my own bike, since at that time it was already very late summer. In my country we get 6-7 months of riding season. The wait is killing me, i have waited for so many years and now i have reserved a bike, waiting for 1 more month to go test it and propably buy it. It's gonna be CB650r.

    I'm looking at getting a Himalayan as my first bike. I've been waiting to get one, I figured it would be a pretty good beginner bike and it's a dual sport. It also has ABS with the an option to turn it off for off-roading which I think is pretty sweet, plus it's pretty good on gas.

  • @GranPaMark

    I started with an E-Bike bc I couldn't afford a car, then I figured out the range was NOT what was claimed & I did NOT want to spend $500 for a spare battery. I bout my first scooter (150cc) for $900. Put a few thousand miles on it, but I was limited to back roads bc it couldn't quite cut it on the highway. Enter a pre-owned Honda Silver Wing - now I'm hooked as you predicted. Now I'm eyeballing a Gold Wing. You very accurately described the experience.

    Started riding in 2011 at 23yo. In 2010/11 the only good beginner bikes were the tried and true Honda Rebel 250, Ninja250r and the CBR250r. I went with a new Ninja 250r at the time. I envy all the new riders today as you have no shortage of entry level bikes loaded with a ton more features, more power and look 10x more better than those older beginner bikes.

The obvious answer is a Touring bike but i just don't want one of those! Nakeds feel like wind would get old fast just holding it at 65 and sport bikes feel like they'd become uncomfortable. Problem is i've ridden neither but i'd love a sport bike, something like an R7, alternatively an MT-07.

    the worst part of owning bikes in the UK , the weather.... And not for the reasons you think. I ride all year round and have done for 28 years now, but cleaning a bike is the biggest pain in the arse, especially now with bikes having so many nooks and crannies.
    The other day, it took me 3 hours to clean the bike thoroughly with a jet wash, chamois leathers, polish and even a tooth bush for the awkward bits....two days later, it was a dirty as before, even though I hose the bike down after every ride to get all the road salt and shit off (to an extent).

It’s so fun, engaging, it’s easy to make friends, it’s time to myself, it’s something I can DO and feel accomplished about.

    As someone who lives in the UK I find it so weird that 400cc are being recommended as beginner bikes. But that's the result of different regulations/licensing I guess, here in the UK you start with a 125cc which is what I've got(KTM RC 125). Can't wait to get a proper bike.

    Getting back into biking with a 99 K1200rs. I had a Sportster 1200 for the last couple years, but really didn’t ride it much. Now I have the bmw. So now I’m the short guy on a tall bike. This is going to take some training.

    As an individual who got his first bike at the age of 29 and starter bike being a zx14r and recovering from a major accident caused by a person who ran a redlight. I would still want to ride a bike although its not in the budget right now. anyone whos anyone who wants to ride, please do its fun! As a seasoned car enthusiast whom had many fast cars id say the bikes feel way too different and way more fun, please o please be careful with other drivers cause they do not care about you be safe and just enjoy your rides!

    There’s so many different styles and flavours for beginner bikes, you can go for something sporty like the Ninja H2R or the Honda Fireblade CBR 10000 RR SP (No ABS) would be a really good option for you there.

    But to be honest, there is quite huge difference when it comes to europe and the us. In the US bikes are more like a hobby, but EU is the opposite, most people use bikes just to commute to work etc, not just to go for a ride away, thats why there are a lot of bikes like bmw gs, i even seen one guy go food shopping with it like 2-3 times per week.

    think the complications of actually getting a motorcycle license nowadays in the UK will put many new young riders off. they have over complicated things, and yet i can pass my car test and jump into any vehicle i want if i can afford to.

    i have intentions to get a job and get my license and purchase a motorcycle.
    It's really exciting and I can't wait to explore. I know I could do it with a car, but I just know and have realized I can't and never will get that same feeling of freedom that I otherwise could with a motorcycle. I don't intend to drive unsafely or do anything too crazy, I genuinely just want to go explore and be able to feel like I have that freedom. I feel like it's a bit weird to explain but it kinda just makes sense in my head.
    Of course, doesn't mean I don't ever intend to try and learn any tricks or anything on the motorcycle. ☺

I couldn't agree more with what Yammie says on the video. If you're thinking about getting a motorcycle just stop thinking and go get it! 🤣

  • @harrystyles7466
    @harrystyles7466 3 місяці тому +1

    The problem I have with your first 3 reasons is that they would have applied 5 years ago. Or 10 years ago. Because thats called technological advancement. Its the same with smartphones or computers. You get more computing power/HP for your money than 10 years ago. That alone isnt a reason to start though.
    Also, here are some reasons this time period isnt the best ever for riding (Europe-specific):
    -Emission standards continue to gut power and sound and make bikes more expensive for no benefit to the rider, they even stop certain engines/ motorcycle types from being produced
    -Fuel costs are super high
    -in my country they are continuing to crack down on everything with an internal-combustion-engine in the name of mother nature
    -the used market prices are at an all-time high
    -electronics make the bikes safer, but also more expensive to maintain and harder to work on for the owner
    -analog dashes are so much better looking
    if you just want to ride a motorcycle these things would never stop you though, its just extra unnecessary pain.
