What is this obsession with "outgrowing" a bike? What does it even mean? Also the word "beginner" bike is mostly derogatory in this context. It translates into: "A weak underpowered bike, that is designed for a weak, low skilled rider whom is obviously not a real man to handle a bigger bike" I think we can do away with throwing away the "outgrowing" and "beginner" implications. If you find a bike that you like, then that is your bike...regardless of power and size, it is 100% legit and don't let anyone tell you that there is something wrong with it and you need to "upgrade".

My first was a used ninja 650. Might be a little big for some but the fact that the two previous owners had laid it down and scratched the fairings and zip tied them back on allowed me to not worry about dropping it when practicing in a parking lot. If it was brand new I probably would have not pushed myself so hard in training for fear of dropping it and scuffing it up. I beat the shit out of that bike but it made me a pretty good rider if I do say so myself and I still have it and take it out sometimes because it’s fun as fuck. I guess the moral of the story is get a used one that’s ugly but still fucks. The ugly ones know how to love you better.

She tried to get on my bike, which for reference is an mt09, and couldn't handle it at all and even that bike doesnt weigh a lot. something to consider for anyone wondering is not just how well you can handle the bike at speed but also how well you can maneuver at a standstill.

As a a Himalayan owner, I agree with where you have put them on the list. It's a very mid bike when you look at the much larger motorcycle market in the US. However, here in India, they're good everyday bikes, even considering an expanding market here. I live in Bangalore, and the insanely slow traffic and the potholes covering the roads here make a bike like the Himalayan which has some off-road capabilities a pretty decent option. Though, there isn't a week, a month, a year when I don't wonder whether it'll be better to sell it and add more money to buy a Duke or RC 390 or a TVS RR310. Though the RC isn't very advisable for Bangalore roads.

I don't have $16k at the moment though, so the MT-07 is the most appealing option for me right now.

I tried the various dukes they had on display and before I left I sat down on the RC390 just for fun... I don't know what kind of wild scorcery those people cast on me but I sat on that machine and it just felt right! No other sportbike and also most other nakeds came even close to haw good it felt sitting on the RC390! Of course it's still a sporty position I'm in so for a daily I still prefer the CB or something of similar size but if I would choose a sportbike as my first bike there is no question which one I'd get.

Any of Hondas 500cc are alright. It’s because they’re heavier than other bikes in the same class bringing its power to weight ratio low. They are pretty pricy too so you aren’t getting much power for your money as opposed to the other bikes on this list. People prefer sports bikes as opposed to non fairing bikes because of the wind. I personally like how nakeds look but sports bikes feel better at higher speeds

I got a 21 CB500F last year and absolutely love it. It's a great little commuter bike with awesome milage and a good amount of poke when you need it. It also has a relatively neutral riding position and is comfortable as all heck. Tested out the 500R when shopping and the F felt like a much better all-rounder.

I was worried about what bike to get and almost got the 07 but I’m glad I went with the 09. I think it’s a perfect bike if you don’t want to go 180 on the highway but want to rip it leaving a red light or if you want to ride some wheelies. Also the upright seating position is much more comfortable than the other bikes I was looking to get.

The best beginner bike is an old, light weight supper cheap beater that runs good (not great) and cost less than $2K. You're gonna learn on it, you're gonna drop it, you're gonna get rid of it when you know how to ride. My first bike was a 1979 Kawasaki KZ400H. I paid $300 for it, got my license on it and sold it 2 years later.

My first bike does not exist in the US market. Its the Yamaha Factor 150cc. I'd say it is pretty beginner friendly for around 3k USD. Just by watching the "ECO mode" i learned a lot about how to shift properly at the correct RPM, even without a clutch. It is also very easy and intuitive to make maintenance by myself. Here in Brazil, spare parts are also easy to come by at very cheap prices. The only problem i had with it was the lack of ABS, which could've saved my ass a few times.
