That is awesome man! I am almost 19, just completed my msf course and really really set on that bike too! Super glad that you are finally getting into it! Very inspirational!

I just started riding 6 months ago at 40yo's. Good on ya bro. Totally looking at getting one of these after the 300 im currently on.

Congratulations! The motorcycle is absolutely gorgeous, I am very happy for you!

welcome to the family man, ive been riding only for 10 months and 10k miles but never been so happy before. hope you have a great time on it, and stay safe

I'm 59 and I got the 22 z650rs, green with the gold wheels. I think it's just a gorgeous bike. You're doing it right, building your skills and confidence .

Congratulations on your first bike. I'm 37 y/o and planning to buy my first bike, this one is at the top of my list and in hopes of purchasing one as a birthday gift for myself. I live in Puerto Rico so the bike is more expensive ($11.995 USD)

Congrats on taking that step!

The ninja 650 and even the ninja 400 are great bikes. I have over 40 years riding and even raced GPZs and early ninjas. These are plenty for the majority of riders and commuters and are comfortable.

Tell your wife we love her and her positive support and spirit! I just love women like your wife ! 👍

Thank you for your POV on the new 2024 Kawasaki Ninja 650. I am trying to get my hands on the bike as well.

I got mine on the 23rd. I've been riding for a while, the 650 is what I set on 7 years ago and I love them! The olive color of the 2024 is what sold me to upgrade from my 2014. Get that first oil changed before you do too many more miles. Ride safe, dude!

Excellent video bruh ! I'm 62 and had my Ninja 650 since 2018 and absolutely love it! I plan on getting both a Honda CBR650 & Triumph Daytona 660 this summer to add to my stable. I'll have 2, 3, and 4 cyl bikes in the garage then... all which have different personalities and characteristics. One thing I ask you is Please, Please be careful out in that jungle of drivers especially in your state. I have 2 daughters in Fl and when I visit.. they do all the driving LOL ! Stay safe and enjoy your Ninja 🦾

Ima get one this year and I’m 26! Getting the same bike

I dig your channel, man. I'm not new to bikes but took about 10 years off when I started having kids. I just got back into it and I have the exact same bike as you. I sold my 2009 Ninja 650 in 2014 and missed it every day. Basic riding skills came back quickly... low speed stuff and emergency braking still isn't there for me. Ride safe, man. Awesome bike!

W wife for the support

RESPECT to you Fam for riding your own ride and doing your research. too many get caught up in what other people deem " the best bike" keep up the practice and focus. 🏍😎

Stay safe out there bro.

Dang bro... 33 going on 34... been researching bike after bike what to get for beginner.. leaning between ninja 500, 650, and others... but now within 30 seconds... you sold me on the 650 cuz i dig that look since i saw it online in pics. First time seeing it in a video... 🔥🔥🔥💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽

62 riding a 23 Z 650 👍🏻

Congrats. The stock exhaust looks sick. Try kevlar ICON shorts under the pants to ride with more confidence.

Congrats. 43 year old here as well. In the process of getting that bike, but the military green one. Safe riding.

Nice video, nice bike. Im a new rider as well, one year older than you, had my training on a Z650 last year and tested both the Z900 and the 650 to get a feeling what to get as my first. I am leaning towards the Z900 because of the smoothness, the sound, the power but my budget is limited and the 650 looks better than the Z900 (not a huge fan of naked bikes) imo. Video's like this do help me choosing, although it still is complicated. Eventually it will be my budget limitation that will decide what to get so i expect to get a 650 as well as it is several 1000's cheaper. Keep on posting and ride safely!

Been riding since the end of September. I love my 2024 Ninja 650 KBT. Lot of cold weather here in NC so only little over 800 miles here.

Congratulations

Nice bike!!! I made the same choice and it has been 6 months and have not regretted anything! At 5K miles now!

Safe riding , enjoy .

I just got my learners (Australia) and bought the 2024 ninja 650. Getting it delivered on Thursday (today’s Tuesday) and I’m so excited! I don’t know much about bikes but have always wanted to ride one and Kawasaki Ninjas have always been what I have eyed off. Looking forward to riding soon!

Congrats bro...u sound like me😂...got my motorcycle ls in 2008 and bought my first bike last yr on my 47th birthday...went with r3...ride safe bro...
