Can you give me
Funny "Beginner Bike " story from yesterday. Sold my harley to my son and bought a new Ninja 400, which is much more fun.. I'm in my mid 60s. A fellow saw me gassing up and sneered " Those are nice to learn on, but you need to get a Harley ." I replied " Wow!" Is yours out here? Let me check it out!" He says "Well, Ive been thinking about getting one."
In the US, people who have no idea about motorcycles are obsessed with HD, seriously. "Well, now you can buy a real bike like a Harley!" My friend, my current motorcycle outperforms in every aspects to almost any Harley costing, literally, 1/5 of the price. I don't think I need a new bike, you just need to learn about real motorcycles.
@@JackDespero Yeah, Harleys are about the worst bike you can get. Trash quality, garbage handling, WAY too heavy, obnoxiously loud, stupidly wide, the most a-hole riders 😂, etc...
As a mid-40s guy who ditched sports bikes and got into nakeds for more comfort I have way more respect for any 60yr+ old for still throwing legs over any full fairing bike with clip ons (even if raised) instead of taking a crusier bike. At that stage in life the strain on the back and waist alone makes you way more braver and powerful!
@@nanaholic01I have a ninja 400, and it's seating is pretty much the same as a naked bike. Almost no forward lean
I rode the new Triumph speed 400 as part of a bunch of demo rides last weekend and it was my 2nd favorite of all the bikes I tried... I actually found it more enjoyable than the Daytona... but the speed Twin 1200 was my favorite.
Moving from my Monkey to a ZH2… SO EXCITED!
Also got a new t-shirt and flip flops… considering a Colorado city to city run to break her in!
Don’t worry, I rode past a track yesterday.
Something like Colorado Springs to Denver in 20+ minutes?
You're gonna need a Gixxer for that trip buddy!
@@andrewhunter8928 He won't need a Gixxer, but he might need Gixxer brah to do the riding for him.
Doesn't count if both wheels are on the ground.
LMAO!! I actually went from a monkey to an Indian scout 9 hp to 100 hp. I've had the scout for a year now and have 15,000 miles on it.
As a rider of 30 years im going backwards from big bikes to smaller displacement bikes and having a blast.
Same. I'm 47 and picked up an RC390 after riding big bikes for a few decades. It is too much fun. So easy to flick around.
My first road bike was a Vulcan 1500 and that was 11 years ago, since that bike I’ve only owned one other out of the 25+ motorcycles I’ve owned that was over 500cc😂😂
I like going through the gears without excess illegal speed.
Interesting. I was club racing bikes like r1, zx10 but stopped some 6 years ago. Bought myself Ktm 690 sm and was very happy with it. However year after year I felt a widening void in my soul. It’s all fun to trash around on country shit roads, doing wheelies non stop at slow speeds and filtering and jumping curbs in city but something is missing. Now I bought 1290 sdr gen1 and man I can’t say how happy I am. It’s like having sex again after years pleasuring yourself. Pure happiness. I am 46. Never say never
@@TheProperMinter I’m looking at a 701 SM but my insurance is finally cheap again 😂 so I don’t know if it’s worth it haha
Dang I’m early enough to see the bots commenting

That usually means you need to get a job
@@brandonwalker6781 I opened UA-cam at work 💀
Beep boop
I’m new enough to know that as soon as I start thinking I’m not a beginner, I messed up.
That's the attitude
Yeah, I wouldn't say you can't know when you are not a beginner anymore. I'd frame it more as there's always something new to learn, and even things you already know can be massively improved upon. It's also good to recognize one's achievements and progress, which is motivation to make further progress.
I missed these kind of yam videos with all the memes and clips
Just upgraded from a cbr500r to a 2024 XSR900 amazing bike
I did nearly the same thing in 2022.
Upgraded from my CB500F to my Street Triple RS.
I did American super amp a couple of times. I was riding in early winter, I hit ice. Rear wheel kicked out, I was able to keep it upright and not crash. Staying in my lane just did what I learned from that class. Friction is everything
Everyone is a beginner until they ride on track. It is a completely different level, it's insane. 5 years on street doing absolutely fine tens of thousands of miles, was an absolute beginner again as soon as I got on track.
fortnite skibidi toilet
Facts bro fuckin facts
Not everyone has the time or willingness to hop on the track. I have a big K1600, and that bike is HUGE on a racetrack for a new race rider.
12 years, 8 bikes, diferent CC from 150 to 1000....never been on a track. Still a beginner?
Define track... flat track? Motocross track? Dragstrip?
This is a great video and one that I've currently been contemplating for the last couple of weeks. Currently on a '14 Shadow Spirit. It was my learner bike and I have owned it for 2 years now and it feels like it's time to progress. I know the Shadow has a special place in your heart and while I enjoy mine, driving in the DFW area poses some challenges on a cruiser. And just over 6 ft tall, that low cruiser life is a difficult one for a super low seat height. Currently have my eyes set on a CB650R. Love the taller seed height, passing power ability on our freeways, and nimble, flickable nature(albeit with a sportier tire change) of it. Just started working at DFW Honda in grapevine, so hit me up if you're ever in the neighborhood.
Some of those shots of Austin. Wow! It's all growed up since I was last there 20+ years ago. I hope it's retained that "weird" growing-but-small-town charm.
Started on a FXDX 1450, 5 years later still have.
Scratching my head for my next ride.
Went from 5 years in a 125cc to a cb500f and I'm having a blast. 6000km in 4 months. But I always wondered what the msf course is all about. Here in Portugal I had to drive for 10 hours in city streets and have a teorical and pratical exam to get a A licence.
BTW, this channel is responsible for getting me into motorcilng. Next step, a 900cc. But first I will have to master the cb 500f.
Great content. Keep posting 😊
So i did hear you mention the turbo busa, im gonna take that as you want me to buy one as my beginner bike. Thank Yam!
Dude literally reads my brain on video ideas
I can't speak for everyone, but a non stock exhaust makes me go to the next listing...
Another fun informative video
I went on a different route.
After moving to the US, I needed a cheap vehicle because public transport is non-existent here.
There were no places in motorcycle classes, so I bought a Yamaha 250 and I learnt by myself watching UA-cam videos and the community road by my house.
My first real ride, pushing it harder than third gear, was actually just after I got my motorcycle license.
By the way, the motorcycle license in the US is a complete joke. I only had to give a couple of turns (in which I hit the claxon twice trying to put the light signals) and somehow I passed.
Thankfully the motorcycle was quite intuitive for me.
Beginner rider here, I went full on middle age and got me a bmw r1200rt. Having a blast with that boxer
talk about diving into the deep end... :)
Strongly suggest at some point you get a really cheap dual sport or supermoto and try practicing things that will get you to fall sometimes. That's the only path to learning some fundamental things that will come useful with bigger bikes, and every bike really.
@@lucascarracedo7421 I agree, am looking to get a MT07 on the side for the local twisties. I cant use it for a commuter tho since my 6.6 frame cramps up on most of the bikes. Thats why I got the RT.
@@Sabrac-Unbound yeah body frame is a thing. I'm a bit shorter and find the mt07 slightly cramped too. Really nice bike though. Have you considered anything else in the same CC range but more comfortable like the SV650 or the new Hornet? The mt07 looks a lot better though.
@@lucascarracedo7421yeah ive tested a few of the smaller sport tourers like the versys 650 ans the tracer 900. Versys was a tad too slow for me and the tracer tried to kill me. Havent tried the SV650 or hornet. But maybe ill have a look at a few of the older naked bikes
no twisties nearby🙃sed, great content yammie
4:36 Yeah, this applies to cars too.
I started on a RS 660 a month ago. I’m so happy I didn’t listen to you get a Ninja 400 I haven’t dropped the bike and I have progressed greatly in my learning on this bike.
i got the rs660 after about a total of 5 months of riding and 4k miles on a cbr500r 2022. i think it depends on the person tbh. i learned a lot on the cbr and learning even more on the rs660 have had the rs660 for 4 months of riding now
I bought a 2004 triumph Daytona 955i, it’s a sweet upgrade from a 2023 duke 390
First bike was a CBR500R, then I’ve owned a CBR1000RR and now I’m waiting for my hayabusa to be delivered 😊
Just bought a ‘97 Triumph Sprint 900cc for my first bike, but I still gotta register it / insure it before I get more riding time on it. Wish me luck!
It’s funny to me that I still watch these videos even though I’d now consider myself an “experienced” rider, and watching this made me look back at the fact that I did pretty much exactly what yammy said, albeit because of uk licensing laws, but I spent a year and a half on a sporty 125, racked up about 20k miles, then moved up to a sport tourer 900 with about 98hp, put another 20k on that in just over a year, then went and also got an rsv 1000 mille r with about 145ish hp, and now a further 15k more miles in the seat, in all weather and conditions, and maybe quite a lot of naughty riding, I feel the next step would be a track day to really enhance my skills.
I definitely recommend these same steps for anyone who’s serious about riding, and even those who just go for the occasional weekend blast.
Same here. Started riding again after decades away from it. Got a 300 and worked on the skills and ride about 12,000 miles. Moved up to a 95 hp 650 (middleweight with low torque but high top speed - great for the highway). Loving it!
I LOVE this video and explanation. I'm facing all of these with Striple 765 R, but still considering my money and how often i ride, I ride all year round, but sometime lazy to go out.
Just bought my first bike a month ago 2016 Honda CBR 250 I know a bit on the slow side but I enjoy it
Outro gets me every time 😂
Here on good ol'Mexico, things are somehow different, since most of us start on chinese made (Mexican assembled*) bikes and then, if possible, upgrade to what you would consider a beginner bike.
My first bike had 18 HP (with 7,000 km well spent), and now I hit the 15,000 km mark on my Duke 200 (24 HP).
Currently aiming for a Ninja 400 or a Svart 401, with dem delicious 45 HP range...
Things are different here but the feeling is the same: we want more power, we want to enjoy more~ 🤘🤩✨️
Started on naked bikes then switched to crotch rockets for 35 years then went back to naked bikes
Good advise.
beginner rider here.... went the first 5000 kms absolutely scott free. bought a new-ish bike at the end of the season.. dropped it in my driveway on the very first outing of spring.... you dont want to experience that kind of emotional pain.. broke my integrated turn signal. and scratched the fairing.. however was a cheap lesson to learn on what gravel does to your center of gravity haha.
Tip when riding on gravel, try to let the bike wobble as it wants and go no quicker than 10 mph. Loose grip on handlebars is crucial
My first and current motorcycle is a Suzuki GZ250, I've had it for 8 months and 2500 miles and am itching for an upgrade. Why? Mostly for being able to keep up on the highway, with a dash of a desire for a more sporty bike. Highway cruising is Zen and also quite practical for longer trips, and the increased power makes the acceleration exciting. My biggest barrier is the price of buying a motorcycle, even after selling my current one.
Also, not every person's first year is the same. Some people jump very early into track day activity and advanced courses where they end up having more usable experience than others who've been riding and reinforcing bad habits for years.
Experience isn't a time thing but a commitment thing. Just try to be honest with yourself and avoid giving any thoughts to how you think others see you. That's a recipe for disaster.
I started on a R1 and got a MT-03 for commuter kept both and use the small one to train
Hey there, I just bought a Ducati Scrambler Desert Sled … maybe you could make another video how great this bike is. Please! Thanks Papi Yam!
Or do like me (ok maybe not). Never ridden a motorcycle and at 24 years of age I purchased a brand new Z650. Took the Harley riding course and took to the back roads. Skipped right over the “beginner” bike size. 5 years later and I still have no interest in a “bigger” bike. But I’m no speedster. Just a casual 35-65 mph type. Looking to change bike styles now but I’ll keep with the 650 power. That’s my story.
Ive been riding for about 3 months and i’m going up in the next few days from my cbr300r to a …. Ninja 500. Staying beginner bike territory, but i want the more comfortable ergonomic and a bit more power.
I bought an mt07 as my first bike a year ago. I absolutely love the bike and I'm committed to the naked bike platform. Realistically I don't NEED any more power than that, but I'm starting to get the itch to sell and buy an mt09. Trying to decide whether it's worth the trouble and extra cost.
After hitting a deer on a ninja a few years ago (really bad day) I lost my nerve and now I’m just as happy tooling around town on my Monkey 125!
09:40 "Had close calls" well thats an eupehmism if I ever heard one 🤣
I worked at a Triumph Dealership back when you were... "quite fond of boulders" ... 👀🤫and naturally my colleagues showed me ur channel. Also, there was a big sign on the wall with us face saying "DO NOT sell this man a Daytona!"
(Nah, just kidding the last part was made up. Or was it?!)
Just some banter tho. Love your videos man.
You know what
A helmet is for your head!
Spend the most you can on a helmet it protects what is better left protected to the max!
Hey yammie noob. Great video. Can you make a video about transitioning from dirt to street riding? Ive been riding dirt for 20+ years and I want a bandit 1200 but I'm concerned it may be too much motorcycle. Any tips would be appreciated
Ya know I dropped my Goldwing at a busy intersection. I realized I still had a lot to learn. Watch out for a patch of sand on the road.
I have a z900 and an R6 and so so so badly want to get a ninja 400 or potentially zx4 to play around in the twisties on. "Beginner" bikes are so fun to ride
Bought a 2019 Yamaha MT-09 and I feel beginner AF with this after riding sports bikes for 6 years
I dream of a new MT-09! 🔥
I ride an R1 now
I have a 2014 MT09 (FZ09 in the USA) and I love it. It's the best all rounder there is IMHO. Learn to wheelie it good 😊
I just got an MT09, too. Came from an R6, the lack of a windsheild makes me feel like I'm about to get blown off from the wind when i go above 75mph.
@@gigadolphin it will give you neck muscles.. 😂
I've been learning over the last couple seasons on a honda shadow Ace 750. I'm picking up the gsx8r hopefully this weekend. Good idea?
definitely try multiple disciplines and a bike for ever style
That's a very valid point from Yammie Noob: You need to find out shortcomings of your bike doing longer distances before taking an actual road trip, which may not be there when riding only for up to an hour. I found out that my 2017 Honda CB300F's clutch biting point moves a lot mid-ride as the engine becomes very warm after an hour of highway riding. My bike has cable activated wet clutch. The biting point is very close to the handle bar when engine is cold, and the biting point moves to the end of travel (with clutch level fully released) when engine is hot (not red hot - I can still put my hand on the engine, but it's hot). The bike only has 3300km on it, just broken in, and everything is stock. The clutch is not slipping yet, but I'm afraid if I ride on highway for 3 hours on hot summer days it may start to slip. Any suggestions? I feel something (maybe a spring in the tranny/clutch?) is out of spec when hot. It must be something in the transmission housing that gives up when hot. I use 4T 10W40 Motul 7100 fully synthetic oil in this bike.
Please don't ask me to try to adjust the cable length, as this will only move the entire gap (the gap between cold bite and hot bite) forward or backward, it won't narrow or eliminate the gap. And please don't ask me whether I'm riding the clutch, I'm not. I'm a retired automotive engineer and have been driving manual cars for 30+ years. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
I started riding at 56, and found that my 40 years of cager experience was invaluable at proactively identifying potential issues and inattentive drivers allowing me to take preventative measures to circumvent danger.
Yeah, there's a very clear difference between people who were already driving cars and people who had to learn how to mechanically ride a bike and also deal with traffic. You can focus a lot more on dealing with just one aspect.
Can you make an updated beginner bike list? Maybe sort by style or use?
1st bike-Yamaha 125cc sr
2nd bike-Yamaha 125cc sr
3rd bike-Yamaha XJ6 - Rode from England to Nice south of France (1200km)
4th bike-Suzuki SV650
Now bike Yamaha FZ8 R line and this is by far the most fun i have ever had. Such a blast after 7000rpms on the twisties between Nice and Switzerland.
Happy riding everyone!

@@Terrec I was so close to getting a street triple but then test rodevthe FZ8 and loved it. What litre is yours? How is the ride?
@@TheQuanzy what do you mean with litre? Engines displacement? It’s 765ccm
Or you mean fuel economy? I get about 5 l/100km
Ride is really good, I only have to tune the suspension (I am to light)
1st bike - 70s Japanese 400cc standard
2nd bike - Duke 390
3rd bike - MT07
Honestly think I'm good here and not sure if I'll ever look into a liter bike
Im on a R1 now.... Guessing my next step has to be a Turbo Busa?!?,,, or possibly a Twin-Turbo Busa you think??? 🤔
Love my gsxr 600 been riding it for 3 years and have no interest in getting rid of it but, I have been thinking about getting something that can carry bags and have decent storage. I can ride in the Adirondack mountains and have fun with. I don’t need a power bike and have no interest in going to liter bikes. I was just looking at a gsxs 750 and they do make bags for them. There’s so many options it’s honestly hard to choose 😂. Naked bikes adventure bike I can’t do a cruiser though I don’t like the way they sit, the bike I do like I’ll look so stretched out for my body size (m109r boss)
Looking to buy a second bike. This is my third season riding and I am currently riding a crf300L hitting mostly dirt and gravel roads. Looking for something for the street that has some acceleration to make me smile but also comfortable! Leaning towards an mt07 but I see them everywhere
Due to circumstances my first motorcycle might be an 1800cc motorcycle.
Some people either choose to or under certain circumstances end up starting on a big bike, I'd like to see a video made for someone starting out on like a C109 or VTX 1800 or so.
My Dad has a VTX. I bought for him to get back into riding after being off the saddle for like 25 years. Sure it's a big engine but the power is gentle-ish. The bike is heavy but balances well and is super stable. Plan head for stops, take it easy on the wrist, and you'll be fine.
the longest ride ive ever been on was like 3 gas stops there and back lol. so definitely road till i pretty much was out of gas i think we stopped around every 120 miles just to be sure everyone made it. there was like 300 of us atleast. sunday fundays were the best
🤣🤣🤣🤣"the MSF to turbo bussa pipeline." *dead*
If it were up to Yammy none of us would have liter bikes.
lol I bought an arai and had it for the safety course
something to go along with the mods devaluing a bike in the used market, the work and care you put into the bike dosent matter to its value. just because you spent days working on it in the garage and are now selling your prized baby dosent mean its worth 4 times what the stock bike is.
Goood content....😌
3:28 I disagree. Most of the mods I've done to my 650 were cosmetic, and improved it in my opinion. Worst case I still have all the OEM stuff.
Your giveaways only in the states?
yes . to always becoming a better rider . THE off road is the weakest of my skills . i like quads for off road . bikes i always want to race and jump something like Evel .
What does papa yam think about just regular leather cowboy boots for riding?
Started with Husqvarna 401 Svartpilen, now I'm on Honda CB650R...
Yo brah, that's my bike in the thumb nail. I need those wheels. whoever had my bike before me painted my wheels black, so I had to black out my bike.
So Pappa yam. I am a very experienced rider. Have been on bikes my whole life. I love going full squid on my 2012 cbr600rr. What's you advice for transitioning to track riding. Would love a vid about it.
Just start ). Put not so shit tires, check brakes for being present and on a track day, one more, more and you will start racing without noticing. And you will learn on track from experienced people much more than from UA-cam with all respect
Just moved from a mt07 lams to gsxs1000 i now understand 😅
Remember you're still a beginner 💡
Something interesting, in Ohio if you’re over 18 you can take a written test at the bmv, wait 6 months and go back for maneuverability and have your license 😂 you don’t even need the week thing most people do
I, uh... did not wait as long as Yam said I should to upgrade bikes. oops
Your soul is with the 'busa! That's where you stopped. Your soul chose it.
I really wish MSF did some advanced courses here on Oahu. There's pretty much nothing here, as far as I can tell.
Only thing I disagree with is that I think any new sport bike rider/naked bike needs tank grips
Was almost impossible to hold onto my ninja400 tank without it
Especially if you've just polished the bike up.
Yammie wbt if I've been riding for like 7 years but I've never rode a bike bigger than a 125cc ?
Do you not sell riding gear on the store anymore ?
No where near a beginner rider or beginner mechanic, but my bike has spent more time in pieces due to the fact i can't find parts for it. Does anyone know a good place to find parts for a 93 honda cbr 900rr?
Alright alright.. Looking to step up from my Sportster 48… 40 now and taking people’s opinions. 5’11 200 looking for comfort agility sporty fun reliable
I would keep hold of it man, they are becoming really sort after as HD dont do them anymore. It was my dream bike before going for my test, couldn't afford one.I ended up getting a VFR for my first, and now I'm hooked on the speed, looking at litres and full leathers Still, though, I would have a 48 or a triumph bobber, they just look and sound great.
20+ bikes, 30 years riding, over half a million miles, and I still don’t have it figured out. And I’m OK with that because the minute you think you know what you’re doing with absolute certainty that’s when you’re gonna get fucked up.
I ride my bikes daily, but one of the things I don’t mention when I say that is that there are days many of them in fact when I am just riding over to the parking lot and doing figure eights and U-turns and then riding back home, because honestly the Goldwing, the Vision, the CB 500 X they’re all wildly different and I have to practice on all ofthem. The GTR 1400 languishes because I’m gonna sell that bike because it’s honestly just too damn much bike.
Probably buy a different bike???
1:33 is this royal enfield shotgun 650?
i have been riding for 16months and about 11k miles should i consider myself a beginner or move up
yammie papa
Papa yam
Unless I’m a pro, or coach, I’ll always see myself as a beginner or novice
i keep investing in mods on my first bike(kle 500) instead of upgrading to another bike. haha someone please stop me,this kle will never be the bike i need,but i just cant let it go. i met and travelled with my now fiancee on it
So keep it and buy another 👍
What if I already want to upgrade my motorcycle? I’m in a year. I have an xsr700 and want to upgrade to a more refined bike. Maybe something better on the highway and twisties. I was thinking a rs660, tuono660, or a mt09/xsr900.
Turbo busa
Same here but i read that there are so many problems with Aprilia engines. Now Street Triple R is in my radar nowadays.

@@cemozcan3630 I do like that one too but that headlamp is fugly
The amount of beginner bikes I see for say with “”hey less than 300miles”” just terrifys me… why I ride alone
Aside for the speed demons and couch potatoes. What’s the reason for getting a bigger bike? I don’t understand the need to get more than 50hp if you’re riding for commuting and/or long trips. Style I understand but why a 200+ hp rocket to get to work? What’s the need for a 1400cc couch just to ride to your buddies house 3 miles away….. is it just ego or is there a functional reason?
Busa @4:05
Buy a inexpensive CRF300 and go ride off road. Its addicting.
I feel attacked. Almost exactly 3 months and a little over 3,000 miles on my cbr300 and i just got a Super Duke 1290.
I want something I can ride 6.5 hours to camp north of the bridge. And down my 2 track. The wife wants a Harley with low seat height.
I bought my wife a Nissan Pathfinder so we can go camping together, she can have some off-road fun, and I can ride whatever size dual sport/adv I want to.
And I ride about every day
