I've done a lot of looking into it, Yamaha's 700 line (MT-07/FZ-07, XSR700, R7) has gained a lot of traction as fantastic starter bikes with a decent amount of putdown so you don't get bored and not too much power to handle, especially in the top end. Will caution against the wheelie-happy nature of the XSR700, but the other three are definitely contenders.

I rode it to a friends house like 2 months later (cuz he's borrowing it) and it seemed so foreign to me and I struggled to find the pegs and felt like the bar positions were really weird. probably gonna sell it. sure, I can't flat foot the R6, and I can't keep my hands on the bars at long lights and it can get uncomfortable some days but damn, 500 feels like a scooter now.

I agree about perspective on the powerband of a 600. I really enjoy the Jeckle and Hyde nature of those engines. Really easy to ride them smooth at lower RPM's and so fun to make them scream up top. It's kinda like having infinitely variable power modes depending on where in the rev range you choose to ride. 'Gutless under 10k' is as much a feature as a bug. If you want the guts, be in the right gear.

The 636 keeps on pulling till about 14k. 100% agree that having a bike with a "dual personality" is more of a perk than a drawback. So docile and easy at low revs. Sure a MT09 or KTM 890 will pop wheelies with a lot more ease but hey, 636 leaves them for dead in terms of sheer performance.

@@Stratocasterhead51 Comparing dyno charts can be very telling. I've noticed that trend before. If a bike has a top end rush it makes the mid-range/low-end 'feel' weak in comparison. Then some reviewer is telling you how gutless-down-low a z900 is verses an Mt-09; until you look at the dyno charts and see it's an illusion.

I'm getting cbr650r as my first bike, it's comfy for city riding and even has a good passenger seat. Can do twisties and has enough power to keep you happy for a long time. Sure I don't have the experience but if you are responsible and don't go crazy you can learn on it.... or die trying.

First bike is a KTM Duke II 640. Love it to bits but it's a bit intense for the kind of riding I do. (usually 100+ miles at once, in a group where the pace is not too high.) Everyone's having a great time and I keep on changing gear to somewhat dampen the vibrations. It's a fantastic bike, but I didn't expect to go on trips this long when I started out. Did around 3500 km this season. Really trying to figure out what should be my next bike. I did try a Royal Enfield Interceptor, which would theoretically suit my driving style a lot better, but I found it a bit underwhelming. I do like retro looking bikes, I was thinking Triumph Street Triple but I think the bump in power is a bit too much. Would be fun to read some suggestions here!

Having problems choosing between the Honda rebel 1100 and a xsr 700 for a second bike. Started on svartpilen 401 so the xsr feels natural but the cruise control and extra stability on the Honda seem really tempting for the highway. I don't really enjoyed riding a naked bike on the highway for more than a couple exits

@Jagknorr 2 жыл бұрын

Try the Honda out. Maybe it will put you down the cruiser path. Or maybe it wont! You wont know until you dip a toe in. I went from a cbr500r to a versys 650 LT outta nowhere and i couldn’t be happier. Going the ADV path now 100%. I never would have expected that 🤷‍♂️

I would recommend people not buy 'beginner bikes' buy a bike that is controllable but that you will still love to ride after you gain some skill. My first bike was a 955 speed triple, still have the bike 10 years later and still love it. You need to learn throttle control anyway you might as well learn on a real bike that you wont be replacing after a year of riding.

All bike are real if it involves paperwork and isn't imaginary. Had my bike for almost a year (2020 Ninja 400) and put 8k miles on it but haven't maximized it's potential on the track. Going straight is 1 thing. But taking corners is another.

@andrewl.8626 2 жыл бұрын

@@sambeezy007 I live in Colorado and ride through the mountains all the time, I know all about taking corners. If you do much riding up here you will also realize that 300-500cc 'beginner bikes' wont cut it at 11000ft. Not disparaging smaller bikes, just saying don't buy a bike with intentions of moving up later, just buy the bike you want and learn to control it. If the 400 is the bike you wanted because you want a light bike for the twisties, that's cool. I just bought a smaller bike (Zero Fxs) and I love it. Have fun and ride safe.

@M82Predator 2 жыл бұрын

@@lethalvenomx1095 I'm not sure honestly, I learned so much on the 400, I suppose you could ride around in Low power mode vs Full power, its just a toggle switch. In low power still more than the 400, it brings the motor to like 70-80% max power. Big difference too is the ride stance, you're leaned over and tucked more. On the 400 was more comfortable and upright and nimble. I'd feel uneasy learning on a new $10k bike it wasn't too bad mentally learning on a $5k bike. I mean if and when it gets damaged.
