- I watched many CZcams videos and spoke with many bike shops to try and get an understanding of which bike to go for first, after passing my test.
I was going to do the whole 650cc thing, but decided to jump straight in with both feet, and I am so pleased I did.
This video explains my thoughts about what you need to know before jumping on a big boy bike.
Please check out #paramoto959 He is a great CZcamsr which great thoughts!
Bike in video is a #Ducati 959 Panigale Corse

I like you’re take on the matter. I’ve gone from being a hard no on the topic of starting on a liter bike, to being a solid maybe. Especially if you have maturity on your side. 😎
The funny thing was, when I discovered your video I decided against buying one but went against my thoughts and was glad I did as I love it.
You’re right about the level of maturity, it will save your life!
Sensible review...I remember years ago someone told me...know your maximum and knock it down 10% then you should be ok. Ride safe guys 👍
Thanks, yeah that’s a good bit of advice! 👍
Good advice..also on every ride its good to enjoy it and use it as a training session with a post review of what you did well and not so well so that you continuously improve your roadcraft.
I learnt loads on my 125cc before i got a big bike.
That is sound advice and love that thought!
125cc’s are great for the learning process.
Great video. I agree with you on all fronts. Stay safe
Thanks a lot, welcome to the channel! Do you ride?
Excellent video mate it’s very true that if you don’t know your limitations you shouldn’t ride a super bike.
I’ve seen some very experienced riders get over excited on such machines.
Ride safe mate 👍
Thanks 🙏 absolutely, problem with these things, if you get it wrong then you can pay the ultimate price!
I swear you can enjoy these machines riding sensible just as much
And you mate! Look forward to seeing your new bike! 👍👍🍻
Great video and very wise words.
Like You say, it's all about the type of rider You are. I'm a couple of years shy of 50 and have my DAS next week. I'm looking at getting a middleweight bike to start me off. Honda CBR650R, Suzuki GSXR600. Or I might even go for a "safer option" and go for Yamaha's MT07.
I know I'm gonna be sensible if I'm riding on my own. It's maybe when I'm with friends, who have been riding big bikes for years, take me out on a jolly somewhere and I feel the need to keep up. Hence the reason they have absolutely no idea I'm doing this. Only my immediate family know, and *ahem* a couple of youtubers. Not even my work colleagues are aware. Getting ahead of myself already. Must pass first!!
Thanks, those bikes you list are all great options! And I would say the best pick! Don’t be fooled by the MT07 as the safer option, my friend (who I am I just about to go out with as I type this) has just picked one up as his first and its RAPID, they call it the wheelie king 😂
I 100% recommend you testing first, don’t do what I did and bought before I could ride. I don’t like my Aprilia Shiver
one of the best videos that has been done this over debated topic were just tired of it . Thanks and great video
Well said! can we expect a video involving 4 wheels soon? lol
Thanks, yes 4 wheels will be returning soon! 😂
Love the bike and the channel. But there is also nothing wrong with outgrowing your 1st bike. Same thing with cars. Sure you can get a GT2 Porsche for 1st car, but its prob not best option. A new rider may hit a bump like you did and mash the throttle by accident. I am a new rider and I opted to get ninja 400. 2nd bike i will splurge :)
Yeah your absolutely right, I think to be honest , it’s a very individual thing and we are all very different and only you know what feels right! I suppose there is no real right answer.
Thanks a lot for your comments, and for watching my video 👍
