Hello, it seems like their are alot of people who doesnt know how to ride a motorcycle or even start. So im wondering if riding a 600cc motorcycle come natural to you? For me i started on a 1996 ninja 250ex, but the minute i hopped on that motorcycle i knew exactly what to do, thanks to youtube videos. But i never crashed the bike, and it was fairly easy to balance the cycle. Alot of my friends seem to have trouble riding a bike and i really cant see why, especially balancing it

 

Natural for me. Since I was 12 my father always told be the things to do and question me about it sometimes. He finally let me ride one of his bikes a 2003 gsxr 1000. I hopped right on it and left. I rode over everybodys house in the neighborhood. Till this day I still dont know the power that thing had !!!!!!!!

 

ya its just like riding a dirtbike which i learned right off the bat due to watching my dad and my balance came from riding my bike all over our woods and town when i was a kid.

 

I learned to ride a motorcycle on a 96 CBR600. I was just a little nervous about wrecking my friend of a friend of a friend's bike, but it came pretty quickly. After a couple months of owning my own, it's second nature.

 

when i was a kid, every (other) kid in the hood had a mini-bike , scooter or moped, if it had a motor, i liked it,THANKS TO LOTS OF FREINDS ,i got to ride plenty as a kid, moms didnt alow me to own a bike, so i had to ride everyone elses.by the time i got a street bike , it was nothing new just a little heavier...

 

started on ATVs and Dirtbikes. leared clutch control as well as shifting gears, and I never stopped from there.

 

Started on bicycles riding around my hometown, got a series of dirtbikes/atvs starting in middle school and raced a few times at the local track, and finally bought my first street bike when I got a job out of college. It's been kind of a natural progression and it all was pretty natural picking it up...

 

Can't honestly answer yes or no. Yeah I naturally knew how to keep my balance and shift. But there's a chitload more to riding that kinda have to be taught (or at least described) unless I like eating asphalt

 

I couldn't say since I've never ridden a 600cc motorcycle. Decades ago I started out on a 125cc enduro. Then a 500cc enduro. Then an 1100cc sport tourer. After a 20 year lapse of no riding I now have a 1000RR, which i totally love.

 

I rode fourwheelers, dirtbikes, bicycles, drove manual cars, etc. before I jumped on my cbr 600 for the first time. I was nervous at first but once I went about 20 feet I was like man this aint that bad. Now my buddy just bought an 06 ninja 650r and apparently has never did any of the above. I was teaching him how to ride it yesterday, right after showing him how to put it in gear and take off he gets on it and goes from neutral to first without pulling in the clutch. Oops lol. Then he pulls the clutch in and pops it... I thought he was gone, his left hand comes off the grip and he barely managed to stay on. So idk I guess it just depends on the individual.
