"Riding dirt bike since I can remember" to me has never counted as starting on a street bike. My first bike was a 600cc, and I always had people telling me I was crazy, but the way 250cc dirt bikes are geared, in my opinion, really teaches you how to respect a throttle, as well as just teaching you how to ride.

I actually started on a 1000cc, literally only experience before that was on a pedal bicycle, never been on any motorized bike before that. it was not that bad, just started out slow going like 15 mph through developments when I got back form work (drove my car to work) and after a few weeks went a little faster onto county road, after a few more weeks take it on a smaller state highway, etc. just start slow like the guy in the video did and you'd be fine. went 2 months before I really even opened it up. don't regret it because now Im not gonna end up being one of those hundreds of people selling their 600cc on facebook that they've only had for 6 months because they got used to it and already want a 1000cc. and this was an older bike, 2001, so no fancy electronics like traction control to help, just don't drive like a reckless idiot and you'll be just fine. its a light ass sport bike, so my first few weeks of riding I didn't even go out of 1st gear because it go up to 60+ mph and I was only going 30 or less, so didn't even bother shifting just focused on learning to handle it

But dirt bikes handle completely different than a fast sport bike. The weight and the speed almost always catch everyone out. Even the fastest 450 dirt bikes top out around 80-90mph, which a lot of 600-1000 sport bikes are barely out of 1st gear. The gyroscopic effect from the heavier wheels at those speeds keep the bike upright and most riders run wide in corners because of it.

Dirt and street bikes are different but one thing they have in common is fundamentals such as throttle control, shifting and balance. So person that does not have any of these has a tougher time. Not that they can’t learn but it just makes that learning curve a little tougher. Discipline is key along with practice before you set out to the roads. Even experienced riders could have a hard time with liter bikes due to complacency and over confidence.

@@FullThrottleRacing535 Starting with a liter bike rather than going through a middle weight class cc bike is a lot better as opposed to what other people think. 600 cc bikes have less smoother power curve when throttling which is why a lot more accidents tend to happened on middle weight class bikes most notoriously is the CBR 650r its known as the most dangerous middle weight class bike because of how accident prone the bike is. Compared to a liter bike which has a lot more smoother power curve but tend to have much quicker and too fast throttle response because it has no throttle reservoir. Liter bikes compared to 600 cc's are alot more forgiving given that they have better electronics, auto blipper, quickshifter, power mode and etc. while middle weight class bikes tend to have non of that and focus on track capability which is the main reason the Yamaha R6 got converted to a track legal bike only.

Got my first bike in 2011 ZX-10R. Economy was was down people were selling their toys. I got a 07 with 2500 miles for 8k, I wanted a 600 but the price was too good I had to get it. It scared the piss out of me a couple of times but I never laid it down. The bike was very intimidating at first but I became comfortable eventually, but I've never rode it with a death wish like many super crazy squids out there. It also helped I usually rode solo so I was never really getting caught up in racing around or showing off to others and zero alcohol involved when riding. Lots of traps to fall into as a young guy riding a coked out bike I kinda stayed away from them. I wouldn't recommend starting on a 1000 to anyone but now they are much safer with riding aids, power modes and ABS I suppose. If I'd known about naked bikes back then I would have gotten something similar to an MT-07 but super sports were all the rave. Since then I've had a 2015 ZX-10R and recently just got a ZH2 SE =).

Some ppl are naturally gifted in the same ways similar to athleticism. I started on a 600cc. The only experience I had prior is an avid mountain bike, the license course and a few rides on a friends dirtbike. It's all about self control as well and taking time to learn the bike before getting heavy into it. I spent my first couple weeks in local parking lots honing some control skills. Sportbikes are more tame in the low rpms which actually is somewhat in the beginners favor. But once you crack 6000-8000+....yeah! The biggest danger of 1000s is their potential speeds and doing so in the wrong conditions ie public streets and highways. And don't be a squid! I got all the gear when I got my bike.

So I was babying the heck out of it and gradually working into the higher ranges, and when I finally got there it was kinda like, "Wow, that's it?" Maybe it's because mine had an aftermarket exhaust and no tune (I got it like that and was too broke to afford the tune), or maybe my expectations were too high, but I never felt like the MT07 was anything more than an extremely fun, high-end beginner bike.

I actually couldn’t understand why Yammi always said do not start with 1000cc (so I started with 999cc - lol) but really, it’s not that hard. It just takes Respect for the Power and a lot Restraint to learn and get comfortable.

This dude is fun to listen to ahahah cool interviews guys! I'm a beginner rider and I have never experienced a litter bike but even a 600 still scares the shit out of me sometimes so I can only imagine what is to ride a 1000cc. On another note, in Europe the driver's license tier system only applies to the younger folks these days. I think that most countries over here allow you to take the category A drivers license (the one that allows you to ride any squid missile you want) if you're over 24 or something like that. If you're younger you do have to go through the steps.

I'm living in germany, being 24 years old (you can get the free license directly at 24 yrs) I learned on a BMW F 650 GS which was cut to 48 PS (A2 license), didn't ride for 3 years and got an F 800 R two months ago as my first bike. I'd say I'm right there between pushing my limits while still knowing my skills and lack of experience plus thanks to my job (cop) I'm very experienced in reading traffic and knowing it's dangers. Still I have a healthy respect for corners and the power even this 87 PS bike has. Only assistance is ABS, though.

Having gotten my 07 R1 after the Ninja 250 its was an absolutely ludicrous jump and I do kinda regret it but mostly due to the fact that I did not dial in the aftermarket Ohlins on it to my weight and get it properly sprung. But with that said I cannot recommend anyone to start on early model 1000s precisely because they have no nannies to save your skin when you inevitably get the bike out of sorts. Plus a good number of Yamahas have always had weird fueling issues that were only ever solved either via a powercommander or a cammed throttle tube to get rid of the lurch down low which would catch a lot of newer riders out. Glad this guy took it easy while getting used to the bike too, I think that is probably the main takeaway for any beginner, take the time to learn the bike and how it behaves under different circumstances before you decide to push it.

Took the motorcycle driving course as my intro to motorcycles while the monster was patiently waiting in the garage. Couldn’t believe the torque and pull my first ride, hit 55 mph, scared the hell out of me. Second ride hit 85, third hit 115, fifth ride topped it out somewhere around 158 in a t-shirt/shorts. Had multiple near death close calls over four years, gently laid it down 3/4 times, never got arrested, always kept it flawless and indoors. Sold it before I was gonna kill myself.
