new rider

Hello All, I fell in love with CBR 650 R 2023 model and finally able to get one a month ago. I made a trip to Ryka’s Cafe over Saturday and also did a Bike Safe course in Northampton Sunday Yesterday. Looking forward to share more things and involve in the group. P.S. I saw a small...

Hi everyone. Passed my DAS last month and after spending the last 10 years messing around with mainly Honda's in the car world it seemed only right to stick with Honda's on two wheels. Last weekend picked up a CB650F. Absolutely love it - had my first trip to Hunstanton today and couldn't...

Hi all, I'm from Slovakia but I live in UK. This month I have obtained full A licence and bought brand new CBR650R 2023. I had a look on 2024 but I preferred the front design of 2023 model. Did only 200 miles on her since picking her up on Thursday. Ordered tail tidy and will be looking at...

Hi all, Thought I'd introduce myself and my bike and seek some advice from the wealth of knowledge on here. I'm new to the world of motorcycles with me only passing my full licence in August 2023 and bought my first ever motorcycle about a month later. It's a 2021 CB650r with just over 14k on...

Howdy all. New rider and no idea about the mechanical side of things yet so I need advice please.... I have a CB650FL and it's just too high off the ground. I've been told I can lower I can get a link to compress the spring and then get a new stand. Has anyone here ever done that? Does...

Brand new '22 CBR650R. Rode 55mi home from the dealer which was my first actual road riding experience. Definitely glad I found this place!

Hi, I'm Leonardo from Uruguay. Since the last year i'm the owner of a CBR650R. I have not been able to drive much yet 😣 (only the first 1000 km) but I am very happy with the bike. I hope soon to be able to share with everyone a little more about my experience with this bike. Safe miles for...

Hello, I would like to introduce myself. My name is Dominic, I am 17 from Wisconsin and I got a 2016 cbr650F as my first bike. Got to officially ride it for only one day late season before putting it away for winter Since I have gotten it in November, I have installed a custom two brothers...

Hey everyone! Been lurking here for a while and thought I might as well post my bike :) I'm a new rider and this is my first bike! Wanted something comfortable enough to commute every day that looks great and has room for me to grow into (Bike is restricted in Aus) Originally wanted the naked...

Hello Team Honda! New rider/cb650r(2019) enthusiast here! Super excited to have finally purchased my first bike--2019 Honda CB650R. Did the Harley Davidson Rider's course back in January 2021 and have been longing for the availability of a new cb650r because I wanted the matte black version...

New here and brand new to riding. Picked up a 22 CBR 650R this past week and have been improving every day. MSF course in 2 weeks. Excited for the journey and meeting great people.

Hello from the UK. After reaching the age of 61 and never having rode a motorcycle I finally decided to scratch an itch. So after 4 months training through the winter I passed my test in March 2022 and bought a 2019 CB650R. What a great bike and I am loving every moment of learning how to ride it.

At 54 it's been 37 years since I last rode a 125, finally got around to passing my test on the 1st October and pick up my 2021 CB650R the next day, loving life again.

Hi folks, I may be a bit premature here, haven't actually switched to the 650 yet but think I'm about to do so. Anyone else come from a Ducati Monster 796 (or similar)? I had the CB500F and an XR125 before that but wanted a bit more power and the Monster looks and sounds amazing. I didn't think...

Hey everyone I'd like to introduce myself. My name is Alejandro friends know me by Ale. I'm in South bay area in Cali. I've recently purchased a 2020 CB650R 3 months ago, check it out. Every day is a new experience for me. I went all in, in the past 3 months I've learned to ride, took the MSF...

I am anything but a well seasoned biker. Though I have over 16,000 miles under my belt, I'm just barely reaching the 1 year mark. I've learned so much that short time, and it's mostly things I never thought of before riding a bike. For instance, if I'm paying attention, I can feel that my...

Hi, A couple of things have caught my attention whilst doing an oil change on my 2016 CB650FA (LAMS) bike. I've had the bike for 3 weeks and have only ridden 150kms. I am still a beginner (first bike) and am riding around my neighbourhood to improve my skills before I mix in with the heavy...
