I feel like that’s the same reason I’ve been thinking about getting into riding. Just for the enjoyment. I feel like the majority of the car scene is obsessed with the H2s and s1000s tbh I don’t care about the speed I just love being outside. I’d be happy with 300-400ccs for a long time

Do you use your gopro mic to record videos ?

It really looks fast until you look at the speedo. The camera decieves.

We LOOOVE words of affirmation 🫶🙌😁

You're a genuine guy, my dude. I respect you wanting to quit social media. Keep being you. 🤜🏻💥🤛🏻

God, the joyful little howl at 7:07 it sparks joy

Why were his RPMs flashing? 7:12

Hey bro I'm in the long Island area I'm planning on getting a ninja 500 soon would definitely love somebody to ride with if you ever get a chance 👌🏿 stay safe brother 🙏🏿

First wave woooow. Lol that was such a pure moment. Good journey's man 👍

You love to see it. However, I’d also love to see people just not be assholes to motorcyclists.

Congrats brother. I'm also thinking of getting a Ninja. Btw which go pro/camera you using?

off topic but your action cam settings look amazing, what camera do you use and what setting do you use to get it to look like this

Hey MotoNYC, I've just come across your channel. As a fresh rider who just got a 500 myself, i know what you're going through. Just know we're all here for you. You've been riding 3-4 months (at least in videos), so dont quit youtube. You bring reality to being a new rider. Embrace it. One tip i can give, which goes passed the bike. Is breath controll. I can hear youre still nervous, just know you have it in you. Keep up the awesomecriding. Ps. Your clutch game is still better than mine lmao

I dont have any social media dont need it i only got youtube also 😊 ride safe

We cannot stop stupid. But police can.

Those solid double lines aren't decorative.

😂 almost surprised he didnt pull you over instead and make up some bs.

Glad it was in a 🅿️ lot

4:57 The sound of silence is loud 😂😭 The best decision you'll ever make, and you'll notice the positives from day one.

You doing 15 in 45

Just do you man, I also deleted social media about 3 years ago fully with the exception of KZfaq and I haven’t been happier to be honest. Although every person is different I completely agree with where you’re coming from. So many other things to do and enjoy in our short lives. Ride safe bro

little advice, when picking up a motorcycle you back up into it and lift with your legs, easier and you avoid hurting yourself, KZfaq has tons of vids showing the best way to do so hard to explain here lol

Did the exact same thing with my n400 but it was infront of a ton of people in the parking lot. happens

Sorry really late, does your bike have a clicking noise when shifting gears, my KRT is doing that and i have no clue why

I don't blame you. I quit all social media except youtube several years ago.

I only came with 1 set of ears 6:48

I deactivated Facebook and IG in June and have NO REGRETS. Living in the "real world" is what more people need to do. You're smart for doing this. The world was so much better before social media exploded. I do still enjoy KZfaq since it's a bit more "educational".

Wow. Fully support your decision! I myself love to write, and journaling is a great way to really become more in tune with yourself. You will never stop learning things about yourself and that in itself makes life worth while. Congratulations on this new journey you are about to embark on and may it be exactly what you hope for. 💛

Love the vids so far dude keep it up.

Loving your plan, i think i need to do the same but struggling to make the change , habit and consistency is easy , im scared of change

Will we still be able to keep in touch and see what you are up to - love your content and as a new bike i feel i can relate to you

I've got 4700 miles on my bike. But I guess I'm not a rider :P. I yelled out loud at the gym when I saw the drop. Hurts the soul. You take the drop in stride tho, so respect!

Proud of you man. Keep it up. ^_^

"If you haven't dropped your bike yet, then you're not a real rider" 😂 It's like the one thing every one of my experienced friends told me would happen...and stalling lol. I also quit social media a couple years ago and it's been amazing, good on you.

It's good to have a plan, you can do it! I love riding because it forces you to live in the moment, it really changes your perspective when you can do it off the bike.

Luv the journal idea, live in the moment without validation! and cool meeting you yesterday. 6:16 embarrassing drake voice was funny. keep up the content.

Ah bummer that you dropped it but luckily the bike has sliders. Try keeping the clutch slipping a bit and applying the rear brake when doing these slow manouvres, it will help with throttle control and stability. Also be a bit more smooth when going from side to side around the cones. Slow speed on a motorcycle will always be a bit akward but you will get the hang of it, just keep practicing!

how were you so calm after dropping the bike??? 😥😥

Yeah. Don’t quit. Don’t be embarrassed. With your videos we see the real deal as a new rider. You’re appreciated. ❤❤❤

hmm I'll watch the vid first I hope you don't quit fr. edit : So after watching the full vid I'm 100% with you on quitting social media they are a waste of time and keeping your life private is the best fr just don't stop making KZfaq I like your content and your calm style. And Bruh I used the wrong account that I'm going to delete to write this comment I'm just a stupid sometimes 🗿

I don't have any suggestions for you bc the comments said it all haha ​​+ confirming that personality is half the content

I enjoyed your video so much! Im looking at getting my first bike soon! I passed my courses ! You did great, loved how genuine ans real the video was. Question: what phone holder is that?

Bro you are doing excellent. We all drop bikes. That's is what you call learning and don't let it get you down. You have no idea how many times ive dropped my bikes over the years especially with short inseam. Stay safe and enjoy riding.

Nice bike! I like the Ninja 500. I also of course like the 636. Don't care too much for the BMW 1000. Too much involved with owning one of those so I hear. I'm in Alabama and we used to didn't have to have a motorcycle license as long as we had a driver's license to drive a car. Now they have changed it and you have to get a motorcycle license. I do agree with it considering driving a car has nothing to do with driving a motorcycle. Lol

Im 5'5 and i have to scoot far back on mine to get the best balance 😅 (brand new rider too)

Right behind you, enjoy the bike ride safe!

Bro, I gotta ride my first bike over 150 miles, 3 hours back down a mountain pass interstate wish me luck...

quoting “that’s it i’m on the road, oh my goodness” from now on

You know, I like your videos the way they are. You're kinda just hanging out, talking about what you're getting comfortable with and what needs go be worked on, allowing us to see and hear your thought process while on the road. Your videos are educational without feeling like they are, so thats a plus. Nice that you got more riding clothes, gotta stay safe. 👍 Overall you're killing it. On another note, how scary was that curve going 60!? Had me nervous, not going to lie lol!! Glad to see you gaining more confidence everytime you ride. 😊 Maybe don't end your videos so abruptly? 😂 I don't pay attention to how much time is left in the video so as I'm sitting here wondering where you're going next, the video just ends and I'm left sitting here feeling USED! LMAO!! 😂😂😂 Hurt my feelings. Jk jk. Seriously though, always love your videos. Keep it up 👍👍 and stay safe. Until next time 😊

Keep posting bro 💯 🙏 watching from South African 🇿🇦 love your content 👌
