9 Cheap Sport Bikes New Riders Should Avoid

Rvt are rar...... and Kawasaki are all over the place buddy😂

I am a new rider at age 71. I just bought a Honda Rebel 500 and I love it. The Rebel doesn't seem to be the kind of bike you feature on your channel but I really love your presentation style and great knowledge of motorcycles. Your enthusiasm is very contagious. Congratulations on your great channel you deserve the growth you are seeing. PS: I really enjoyed seeing some videos featuring your mother. She is a great sport. God bless, ride safe.

Any used beat up bike.

Just bought a 675 as my first bike like 2 weeks ago. OOF.

I’ve had many many 675’s amazing bike very bullet proof and lots of fun

Great video man. I'd be keen to get your take on small displacement bikes. We tend to get hung up on the big bad bikes out there and forget the fun little dinky bikes that got us to where we are.

why would you recommend Gsxr when you talk so much trash about them in your videos? lol

Got my first road bike on the weekend cbr 600f4, i love it. Also your video's have been really helpful. Your a likeable dude. Cheers from australia 🇦🇺

How about SuzukiSV 650?... is it good for a begginer?

Starts video with aprilia and ducati proceeds to talk about daytona reliability hahaha. Still enjoying this content though

Got the vfr 800 as my first bike 😂🔥 amazing bike but it’s fucking heavy. I’m a shorter rider so I’m having troubles w/ that but other than that I love it

For new riders?!

My first bike and still is my only bike is a street Triple which if you know has the same motor as the Daytona just slightly detuned from the tona oem parts aren’t bad I do my own maintenance when I can other then motor work which I haven’t had to do and it’s got 30k miles on it great bike and been reliable

I agree the Gsxrs are super rider friendly. Makes me feel super confident. That was my third 600 and had a R6 and CBR 600 now ride a current gen CBR1000rr.

DIDNT HEAR 1199. Hi RIDER COMMUNITY 🥳🥳🥳🥳

😮😮 U actually recommended a GSXR?

Zx12r is bulletproof!

I'm looking for a 2023 rs 660 extrema. Where are they in stock? Ordering takes 6-8 weeks... why so long? If it's a good bike, why isn't someone stocking them?

Lol I have 2 bikes on this list... VFR800 was my second bike (still have as my commuter) heavy but v-tech and that v4 sound... ZX7r was my third bike (still have but is a track bike) heavy but the most solid bike in the corners I have ridden, even on shitty contimotions! Parts for both are very very easy to come by, even up here in Canada!

Meet-Up Equation: how many Tanks of Fuel to get there?!!?

There is a 2004 Aprillia RSV 1000r for sale in my home town for $4,700 1 owner now a 75 year old who wants a cruiser. Brainerd MN if anyone cares.

My first bike was a gsxr 750 , I bought it new in 1993 . What a heavy and slow pig , but it was bulletproof and dependable

My 1st bike was Indian Scout Bobber and second bike now is 2023 Hayabusa 😝

Thank you, saved me so much money! Was looking at a few different bikes, but all only have ONE spark plug per cylinder. Then I started looking at what models use 2+ plugs per cylinder and I ended up just buying a car.

675r is a GREAT bike, 2013+ model. But I also didn’t have any issues with it, so I can’t recommend it either.

Awesome input bro! Been riding a motorcycle back home(PI) when I was younger. And I've been thinking about getting a GSX-R 600 since I moved here in the US. Salamat!

Any fast liter bike is not a great idea for a new rider. There are some exceptions, but for most new riders you’re dancing with disaster. Build your skills before you jump on a 150+ mph rocket. Plus, younger riders pay a premium for insurance. Your 600 cc recommendation is spot on.

4 cylinder 600 for beginners.... lol.

The zx12r is the dad to the zx14r. It is heavy but they were efi which was good.

The thing you missed which should be on this list was the Honda 954rr. Great bike bit expensive for parts at this point and has entered that collectable position along with the 929rr.

Other options as bad first bikes for similar reasons as listed here...

Suzuki SV1000
Honda Superhawk
Suzuki TL/TLR
Kawasaki ZRX1100/1200
Honda CBR1100XX
Kawasaki ZX11/ZZ-R1100

All of these bikes are great, many of theme are getting to the collector level, most of them are going to have part sourcing tax put on them, but all are also awesome bikes.

It is getting sad going to bike events and never seeing any of these or any in recognizable condition.

if i had the cash (sell my soul to the devil maybe? lmao)
if i had the height or if the seat height could be lowered (lowering kit maybe? lol)
i'd like to get a gsx r600 2005 - 2016

The main reason I subscribed and the main reason I am currently commenting is because you speak unbiased facts. I have had all type of bikes but I started on 2017gsxr 600cc. I have never gotten a ticket. I never had an accident, nothing!!!! I accredited it to Yahawah and starting on that Gsxr 600cc. I'm on haybusa now and I'll never ride anything else.

Terrible recommendations. New riders should never start on a 600. Unless they want to die. 650 max. Plus, they are guaranteed to drop the bike a few times, so don't buy a new bike.

I have a zx12r. The main problem is the monoframe. Makes it hard to work on it

The mille is a tank(reliable), parts are not abundant by any means, but you can get pretty much anything from UK, and apparently I can get some parts locally (EU-based). But yeah, I'm glad it wasn't my first bike, it's a bit harder to work on. And don't sleep on the ZX12-R, its a fucking missile 😅

No one ever mentions 600 F1 or F2 or F3, it’s always F4

My advice is if you just want a bike buy one with a make that has the closest dealership to your residence just for the sake of making things easy for yourself, be it second hand or new.

Loved my zx7r. Very confidence inspiring. But getting slightly older, just became a bit to unenjoyable going at low speeds. Got a z1000 atm, still sports focused but much more usable for everyday riding. Would be hard for me to go back to a super sports now.

The undertail exhaust 636 is not ugly!🤨🤨🤨🤨

Why would you suggest a 600 for a new rider?

120HP is not a beginner bike, 40-75HP is.

What about 2023 ninja 650 for first bike?

Hey i got my first 600 a year ago and i still love my gsxr 600 k2 but now I want my dream bike the zx10r I’ll still probably go for like 04 to 06
Old bikes are still fun man and I’m 25

Tangina Bra Excellent Content as Always.

meron akong tanong, available ba ang Suzuki Raider 150 fi sa region nyo ???

Been riding only for a year now.. riding a 22 rebel 500 abs. Im ready for a sports bike but Im short. 5’5. What are some of my options. Thanks

Adobo… you rock… plain and simple, and even if it for me solely, you’re an ol’ Homy! I love your style and of course your content! Keep rocking, oh and I owned a Gixxer 750…. The sweetest ride I could’ve ever owned!

What are your thoughts on the RS 660 as a new rider. Looking into getting one.

I just bought a 13 gsxr 600 as my first sports bike after watching your videos for quite a while now. Hoping to build awesome memories with it. I really like your content, keep it up brother. 🖤

Let me tell you, I bought the ZX12R brand new and still have it! It's reliable as all get out! Its fast, great power and stable! Those who had had a ZX12R will know! The reason it a bit heavy, is for the stability at very high speed. It ain't no touring bike either! I have a GTR1400 for that. Ive done some high miles when it was my only bike, my wrist and back side was barking a bit. But it was still awesome!

New riders should get CBR600rr, It’s a good beginner bike

A RC51 is a horrible first bike One won’t regret owning lol. Love that bike but the range is horrible, super uncomfortable and crazy low end easily putting you upwards, my first bike was a modded super chicken. What a horrible Bike to learn on I Miss sooooo much.

Zx7r is a dope bike zx12r are stupid fast
