Impact Failure :
surprised how many ego fueled jackoffs are in the comments.
Any major jump in power or even riding style will cause anxiety until you adapt. Totally normal and great lessons passed in vid

I think everyone is missing the point, he obviously developed some bad habits on a 125 because those bikes are so forgiving that when he moved up to a bigger heavier bike, he suddenly had to re-learn how to ride. starting on a 650 would be easier than upgrading to a 650

Anyone challenging you is likely an ego rider and straight line princess. I've had a cruiser (1300cc), Ninja 650, cbr600, and 890cc 3 cylinder (mt09). The differences between weight, torque, hp, etc absolutely impact the way you ride. Each upgrade has a learning curve. I cannot fathom going from a 125 to a 650. I went from the cruiser to the 650 and the change was night and day. After a while you'll get acclimated to it though.

Comments might actually be acoustic, the jump from a 125 to a 650 is massive power and weight wise. It's nothing compared to 650 to 600/750/1k etc but it's still big.

Dont know why everyones giving you shit in the comments. All valid lessons. I went straight to a street triple 765 rs because i didnt want to have to learn the change. Its good advice what youre stating 👌

Why is everyone acting like a 650 is slow??? Or that a 125 to 650 jump isn’t quite big

Pay no attention to the clown comments from the keyboard tossers buddy... You are on that crucial learning curve that should never end. Keep on enjoying this fantastic lifestyle 💯👍

if you felt like you needed to be told all those things, to me it just points to lack of experience so should of stayed on your 125

Everything he’s saying is facts tho, good advice for people coming from a 125, 650 is still a powerful bike people have no idea what there talking about

As someone who rides a 125 and rode a 1000 several times, it’s not really that different, you do everything automatically without thinking

Dont get why people are biting on you. Yes, those things are present with a 125 but there is definately a difference in the way you handle and feel them on 650.
Heck id argue that depending on the model and type of bike two different 650 can have different feel and handling as well, and while you can handle the switch, there is definately a week or two period of getting used to the personality of the new bike
