"Is this a good beginner bike??" Daily Motor's got you covered. czcams.com/video/2TJI2L88-Yc/video.html
Man motorbikes are sick.
Hands down one of the best first bikes ever sold, and likely the best one to get nowadays. The center stand is so nice for cleaning the chain easily
I dont have anything to compare it to but im glad i got one for my first bike!
Man, that was my first motorcycle, what a classic! All the sounds brought me right back! Thanks !
This is such a great ride along. Thank you for all sounds! Hopefully more motorcycle videos incoming~
This video has the bike sounds, looks and what it's like to ride from a rider's view. And the chapters make sense too.
0-60 7:59 looked about 6 seconds to me.
1st gear 0-35
2nd gear 35-50
3rd gear 50-65
4th gear 65-75 rider backs off.
Nice to have a bike where you can use several gears and full engine revs while still keeping your licence! And it still goes pretty quickly.
The engine pulls strong to the redline too, as we saw and heard in the Spirited Riding chapter.
I had one exactly like this in Japan! Such a good little bike and perfect for a beginner. You could ride the crap out of it and not kill yourself. Thanks for the memories!
That was awesome! Imagine watching this in a VR set. So immersive.
Damn that's a good idea. What would one even film with to make a VR bike video?
@@aluisious an updated GoPro sounds good with it's video settings on standard, instead of the fisheye setting they have as a default setting
Had one of these for my first bike. Thanks for bringing back all the memories!
Had one of those! They're a blast to ride, you have to wind out every single hp out of it to get them going, but that was part of the fun.
I use to have one of these and it was my first bike. Same year I think too. Man those are cheap good fun!
Picked one up in September and I love it. Such a cool little bike.
God I remember when my Ninja 250 felt fast and I was hitting third gear to get across the intersection.
Now if I'm in third gear on the throttle I'm going 110 and I get a little nervous about cops giving me a lifetime achievement award.
it's more fun to "lead foot" (so to speak) on a slower bike, you get more smiles per hour lol
The video is good as always.
the audio is perfect, cant wait to see more motorcycle WR magazine content! i contacted Chris Amos offered to do it myself even haha
Had one. Loved it. 1:17 Yep, those hooks were brilliant. Every bike should have them! Perfect for the "Tail Trunk" bag I had, a Chase Harper which was great.
Yessir cover more old sport bikes pls😊
My dream Super bike Kawasaki ninja Wowwwww 🙂🙏🙏🙏♥️♥️😍👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 thanks for the test drive from the Philippines 🇵🇭 sir Marvin
Wow! I had no idea it was capable of this performance. Increadibly wide power band. Wont keep license lomg riding like this or on those funky roads..but impressive ! Insane value on used market.
wide in this case means 4500 to 10,000 rpm with a lot of practical riding happening around 7000 rpm. Probably the early 21st century version of the old honda Superhawk ( 250/305 circa 1965).

Mega upvotes !
Did you test any other motorcycles? If so please make a motorcycle playlist.
You make good videos.
Really cool
Can you ride on rain?
Is this particular bike the best for beginners? I might start motorcycle classes this Fall and definitely would like to ride and own a few bikes in the future
czcams.com/video/2TJI2L88-Yc/video.html
If you have absolutely zero experience and knowledge, then yes but you will yearn for more once you get the hang of it. It truly is slower than molasses
Is this the first bike review on this channel?
Hey guys is this a good beginner bike? Debating to get this vs a hayabusa. Thanks!
Hayabusa will be too slow, you'll outgrow it in a season. A turbo 'Busa will allow you to grow into it.
@@windingroadmagazine Damn literally beat me to the turbo Busa meme.
Revving the nuts off of it through 4th gear staring at the tach, look up eyes on the road, still less than road speed hahaha. Boy racer fun without the tickets.
These are great beginner bikes. Other than that tho,they’re too slow. I don’t like riding anything less than a 600 nowadays. This was a very good POV ride tho. Brought back memories from riding a 250 Ninja back in the early 2000’s. 👌🏽🔥🔥
Show com motocicleta é show
Notice 100 mph is about 3 o'clock on the speedometer the farthest left gauge. , it gets pretty close so it looks like the top speed is about 90 mph ! Not too bad my old 1969 Suzuki 250 was about that fast !
This thing does like 110mph top speed
If i were to buy a bike i would go for:
1) Harley Davidson Sportster (Cool but overpriced in my country).
2) Suzuki GSX-250R (Beginner's sports bike), Or something stronger like GSX R600.
3) SYM cruisym 300 (A good automatic city/hybrid beginner's bike with nice trunk space and mobility).
don't get a gsx-250 it's not as good as the others in it's class
@@robbyklawonn775 I'm over bikes already lol.
And in my thief country vehicles cost 2x and 3x times the price.
mine revs to 14k little beast
who did this daily motor or topher drives
Daily Motor
