Welcome to the world of two wheels. Wait till you try a fast bike. It's a buzz beyond a car. I'm a bike and car nut.

biggest regret i had about passing my bike test at 26 was that i never did it at 17...years wasted, stay safe, its great fun and as a car driver it will make you significantly more aware of bikers now

Do more about Motorcycles im in 😱😱oh btw watch "twist of The wrist" its a must if your going to ride

next video: I bought a Kawasaki H2

Hey, now you have me interested again 😀

Congrats...now I wonder if it will make you a better driver as it did for me with all the awareness of surroundings because of the bike knowledge that you will acquire :-) :-) :-)

Well done to you! I've been riding 40+yrs and still love it as much as I did in the 70's as a teenager, hope you love it as much as I do,

Absolutely fantastic Paul, you have unwittingly just reinvigorated not only your channel but yourself as well, as you progress through your lessons and on to your own bikes you will realise that not even tens of thousands of pounds of Lamborghini can give you the same buzz as a motorcycle. It’s a whole different world not only personally but socially as well, you will never be lonely as a biker. For what it’s worth for somebody who has never touched a motorbike you were doing exceedingly well. Just take your time, be smooth and look where you want to go. Good luck on your fantastic two wheeled journey and hope to see you on a 1000cc superbike in the future 😉 Your best video to date

you're doing really well mate, to say it was your first attempt. i've got a zx10r and its an amazing machine, you'll love biking and im just starting out to becoming an instructor for CBT's and DAS but yeh top notch mate 👍🏼

This is sick. I am currently training for my mod 1 and mod 2 myself so would love to see how you get along. Great content that i am looking forward to.

I’ve been watching you for many years and am happy to finally see you on two wheels. Welcome to the fun side!

I took the direct access course too in May / June. Incredible to think I’ve gone from never been on a bike to having a full licence in what amounts to be about 30 hours of bike riding / tuition still confounds me. I’ve got to say, though, even though I’m very much a novice rider, it’s the best thing I’ve done. Welcome to the brotherhood of bikers (of both/all sexes). My first bike is now purchased and funnily enough is a Honda CB650R a 2019 bike and I LOVE it .. Enjoy it, keep the vids coming and stay upright and safe

Welcome in the bike world Wallace ! Hope you'll like it ! The videos reminds me my first time I rode a bike myself such great memories. Can't wait for you to test and share your impressions on a more powerful bike (in safety of course) prepare to get your mind blown !

Awesome, doing well so far!!💪 Enjoy the ride ,take your time and progress at a chilled pace, because once you get better to the 1000cc it's a different ball game(cant stress how fun it is!)Also try different cc bikes, see which one suite you.My favorite is my speed triple rs 1050 cc and Yamaha mt09, etc Ride safe!

Wonder how long this will last. Probably will just be like him becoming a pro drifter😬🤔

I've been thinking about this for a while, and like you I love cars and some what afraid to delve into the world of two wheels, but Paul you're inspiring and I think I might push past the fear and give it a go. Hopefully others will be inspired. I love all your videos keep up the great work.

Well done bud! I remember the same emotions doing mine. You smashed it

Nice one Paul I have been riding for 25 years and trust me it becomes addictive. I can’t live without having a ride now and again. They say it’s really good for your health because of how it relaxes you. You will grow to love it. No waiting in traffic when you really need to get somewhere. Good luck

In my experience, learning to ride a motorbike made me a better driver. Observation, anticipation and planning are vital on a bike if you want to stay safe.

Congrats What could await you ...The bliss you get on track knee down 90 -110mph corners pure heaven

Nice one, I'll follow this with interest. I started with Aprilia RS50s, RS125s (wrote off both of them) Kawasaki 636, Yamaha FZ6, Yamaha R1. A fast bike is pretty bloody alarming when it's shaking its head and lifting the front wheel. Ride safe, baby steps..

Good on you mate well done. I've had my bike license for just under 2 years now and I'm loving it. I'm on just allowed now to ride any size bike I want. Here in New South Wales, Australia you must do a pre learners course which is 7 hours over 2 days, then you must pass a knowledge test before you can get a learners permit. You must be on the learners (L plates) for a min of 3 months and max 12 before you progress to a Provisional licence (red P plates) which last for 12 months. If you're under 25 and or have had a license less than 5 years you must then go on green P's for 2 years. Then you're a full license holder and can ride anything.

Well done Paul! It's very scary at first but then becomes the best thing ever. Just wait till you go on track!!

This video was so entertaining, looking forward to the next!

Great stuff Paul, just starting to learn myself. Had 20 years experience driving a car and 14 in a truck. Now the two wheel adventure has begun. CBT and theory done and raring to go. Best of luck with your mod 1 and 2

Well done to you for taking the plunge! I nearly did 19 years ago, but chose not too! That was great fun to watch and good luck with it all!

Paul.......what the fack are you doing on a bike?? Next thing we see the channel renamed to "Superbikes Of London". Just kidding mate.

i just got my cbt and have been learning on a 125, really enjoying it just need to stay safe :)

welcome to the motorcycling world i've been riding for the last 42yrs you'll love it good luck ride safe bud

Congratulations!! Brilliant stuff.... And once you get the hang of the whole experience the spacial awareness levels etc will bring a new dimension to you car driving too!

Nice one Paul and welcome to two wheels! I love my cars but bikes are my first love, been riding for 38 years. You’ll love it when your confidence grows and it’ll make you a better driver too. Looking forward to some more bike content.

Things must be a lot different now as when my generation got our first bikes or scooters we just went straight on the roads, no CBT and loved it, not scary or worried just great fun and still riding today and still get the same feelings from it!

Welcome to the gang! Well chuffed that your doing a motorcycle series! Good luck with all the tests and RIDE SAFE!

I've been on the back of my dad's bike since I was about 6yrs old. So when I turned 24 this year, the first thing I did was get my biking lessons for literally a dream coming true. Currently ride a Honda CBF600SA, got my full license in may and have about 12000km on the clock at the moment. Man it's just so addictive. Hope you enjoy yourself, I can tell you it get's a lot better after about 2 weeks of being able to ride on your own :)

Awesome! Enjoy!!! Been riding for many years, love cars and motorcycles. You'll find you are a better driver once you have some miles under you on the bike too. The skills work both ways and it's a great way to get out there.

Well done Paul, very best of luck with your full bike test.

Well done Paul, love seeing more bike content on youtube. I starting riding back in September, and have since passed my DAS and brought a GSXR 600, totally different world and concept of speed. I look forward to the upcoming content. You should plan a public ride out when you pass and have a big time, there are some stunning roads, which really shows you the fun and enjoyment of being on a bike. Little bit of advice, learn about counter steering, will improve your riding like you wouldn't believe, best of luck!!

Haha awesome man! I got my first one too! Motorcycles are a completely different world. Bieng on 2 wheels is 10 times more satisfying than any car in my opinion! Safe riding brother!

Well done man👍🏼 keep at it, cars are fun but bikes are next level adrenaline, just wait until you get on a big bike👌🏼

Just got mine! Good luck man, its going to be scary.

Most important thing when riding is don’t over estimate your ability and if riding with other guys that are quicker, don’t try and keep up. Ride your own pace if they are faster, they are faster, have fun and stay safe 🤘

I feel you, I had the same issues. Being a car driver then trying to ride a bike..its hard. I'm guessing it Will take time for all those individuals controlls to become natural and muscle memory. I also found it hard not dumping the clutch and having all my extremities working at the same time. Didn't know which foot to put down first and when to drop down gears when coming to a stop.

In Romania for motorcycle school ( at least at the school i've been) we have 18 hours in poligon motorcycle doing all sort of manevrability exercises .. in the last 2 the instructor will evaluate you if the can let you for traffic hours ( 8 hours of traffic) and at the end of those 8 again evaluation ..+ in traffic the instructor will be your passenger.

Congrats on opening a whole new world on 2 wheels. You are going to love it!!

Not a fan of motorbikes, but love to watch these kind of videos. And big respect for trying it for the first time and recording on yt. Great content!

Paul you have a massive learning curve ahead of you, you're awareness on the rd will be so much more than in a car and mentally tiring, especially if you end up riding race replicas, you will love it but getting out of hand takes fractions of seconds, they are awsome rapid machines

Thanks for sharing your experience I will be doing my test next month this was really helpful

You did really good going through the cones!

Paul that's terrific fairplay, great effort and congrats ...I'm about to take the same pathway into the bike community and know full well it's not an easy experience ... I mean, I been looking at Diavel's FFS!! Not even passed theory or CBT yet!!

Well done 👍🏻 I felt nervous for you. But well done for documenting it so well.

Reminds me of when I drive my bike home for the first time haha just stay loose and calm you'll get it!!

I'm thinking about doing the same thing, this is such a handy video, thanks man

Welcome to the club, that video brought back all the memories from mt cbt and das training, I feel stressed now! It wasn't until a few days in that I really started to enjoy it once things started to feel more natural. There is going to be the temptation to get a fireblade or something but for the road you will have way more fun on something like a cbr650r which you can push harder without doing stupid speeds.

Welcome to the club, it will be the best thing you've ever done, see you at the TT next year 👍

From someone that passed in the last few months. Wait till you get off that piddly 125. When you are on a big bike I found you actually feel less vulnerable as you can pull away from anything quickly! Enjoy it it,s the most exciting, liberating and intoxicating thing. You’ll be hooked

You did so well! Welcome to the world of free souls

I brought my first motorbike earlier this year, having never been on one before. It's quite a daunting task, but once you get to grips with it, it's worth doing. Looking forward to future content.

Man as nervous as you were you made that look easy! Kudos! Defo going to go ahead and do mine after watching this, I’ve wanted it for a longtime and thanks to you I’m going to bite the bullet👍🏻

Congratulations Paul, you’ve opened a whole new world for you!

Congratulations, I wish you well with it and perhaps do not even worry about filming until you get all of your testing done and then maybe make a few films where you just ride with just the sounds of the bike and I think it would be quite enjoyable for us to enjoy a bike ride.. Approximately 40. Years ago I got my license here in Wisconsin.I was licensed to ride any size bike and I decided to buy a 650 or 750 and I had 2 things that happened that caused me never to ride again I was licensed and scared spotless. Trying out a new bike I got hit by a stone in the face shield that was large enough to snap my head back but I managed to slow up and stop on the side. A few days later I was trying out a used 750cc bike and it caught on fire in the engine area, another words right between my legs and I got stopped and away from the bike and watched wiring burn completely out of the bike. There is more to the story but after that I never rode again I felt God was trying to tell me something. But I-wish you well because it’s quite enjoyable .

Welcome onboard lad! I've been a car nut for years and only been riding for about five. It's good to have the option to go up a twisty road with two or four wheels. You'll love it.

Verry fun riding a bike !!!! Have fun ride safe Paul !!!!

This is actually cool, good job 👍

I'm glad your trying something new. I was introduced the motorcycling with my roommate, that had a Suzuki GSXR 600 and he had friends that rode, so I got my endorsement and bought a Honda VFR 500 to start out with. After I got pretty good at riding, I traded for a Suzuki SV1000F , what a difference in power. You are going to love riding Paul, it's a totally different experience, it will put a big smile on your face! 😁

Can’t see Shmee having the nerve to ride a bike!

mate considering you never been on a bike before you did really well, but as other people have said you wait till your on a big bike, its like nothing you have ever been in or on, I passed my test 18 months ago and its the best this I ever did, be safe and enjoy.

This is a great video Paul. I’m 33 and never been into bikes but for some reason I have an itch that I need to scratch regrading bikes. It’s a great insight on the process. Just need to convince my wife now! 👍

Great video, Paul. My first lesson is next week, so it's awesome to see your experience.

Well done Paul. Cudos to you for having a go. I passed my MC test 55 years ago and still love it!!

Welcome to the world of two wheels. Safe riding dude, riding is such a great experence! =)

This was freakin awesome. I love this content.

You have to learn now how to salute other bikers whilst driving... Vs! :) Congrats on that amazing experience that is to ride a motorbike! Welcome to the team!

Well done Paul. Looking forward to seeing your progress. I have considered doing a cbt myself and getting into the bike world so it’s going to be interesting to watch your journey.

Nice one bud about time lol, have fun with it!

what a great video really enjoyed it best by far

Ride safe! Congrats!

Great content to see on your channel, best of luck and welcome to the biking world.

Welcome mate That first feeling riding on the road even on a low powered bike feels special. Congratulations 👏🏿

Great times ahead Paul...you'll love it. Personally I ride a CB1000R (naked bike) and it's fantastic. Great upload.

Welcome to the world of 2 wheels! I love fast cars and bikes, but nothing beats the rush from riding a high powered bike. Just take your time getting acquainted, don't get sucked in by others.

Hi may l know what kind of motor bike you had ?

A,b,c &d of the cbt lol that was funny. Great video!!

Holy hell Paul that's an awesome effort. From learning to ride to out on a public road in one day is insane. I'm looking forward to future vids.

Good Video Paul - and welcome to the two-wheel club, you are about to have a lot of fun. Good Luck!

It's great to see a car vlogger trying a bike, hopefully you appreciate bikers more and get put this across to other car drivers!

I know the feeling Man, i have just bought my first mopad...an Aprilia RX50 from 2008 to be exact. It’s more like a dirt bike for the road. I don’t have my licence yet...but i can fortunately ride in my street.

Practice makes perfect I'm still learning myself and I've bin riding for years u will absolutely love it when you get used the hang off it best thing I ever done can't beat the freedom

Love this Paul hope you keep the vids coming

Best of luck. Love bikes and the buzz they give you. A way of getting supercar acceleration for a fraction of the money 😁🤘

Good man! Loving it. But you need a Ducati. 😉

A welcome change! Good job 👍🏾

Hi you did very well when I did my cut in March of Mach 2018 I was just like you but doing the cbt I really Enjoyed doing it so I hope you get a bike and remember it is fun lol

Well done mate you past your motor bike test and you are now a qualified rider keep your self mate love your first video take care of your good self

Great video, you conveyed the exact feelings and emotions I went through doing my CBT, I was bricking it! You looked a lot smooth than I think probably did....the bike the training centre put me on looked like it had been dragged out of a quarry, it was a real bag of nails so that probably didn't't help, not a Honda I should add....

Congrats! It's been 35 years since I rode, I've been thinking of getting back into bikes. Thanks for some motivation 👍

We need more videos on it

Well done fella. Hats off to you for trying something different and challenging yourself 💙

Haha, atleast you had 1:1 tutoring and public road training. With me it was in a large group. Luckily I watched some KZfaq videos on how to shift, brake, handling and all that before (and I had driven mopeds/scooters before), so luckily I looked like a natural who knew what he was doing. The others had no idea, were just thrown into the deep end, sorta like 'here's the bike, figure it out'. After a while of training on a closed course, mostly brake tests, we went back inside, I was like 'ah, good, I could use a little break in between', but that was it already! No tests or nothing, participate, licence next day. xD Chaos lad.

Now that's a direction I would love to see you explore.. Bikes r no doubt scary but once you get confident and start enjoying a bike ride you will start to appreciate the freedom riding a bike can give you.. The feeling of the wind hitting your chest or the wild exploring you can do on a adv bike is difficult to get in a car (as it is always restricted).. Anyway all the best, ride safe and welcome to the 'other side'..

Yes Paul!
