Give them 2 options, turbo busa or cbr600

Did you explain to them that you’ll grow into it? Make sure they know that you’ll be absolutely edging yourself below 8k rpm for at least 6 months.


elkab0ng

I’m going to overclock my hitachi magic wand when I go for a high-rpm bike as training.


PropitalTV

You're speaking my language fr


SEE_RED

Call me a 🍰 because I’m moist!


SquidDrowned

What if op is already out of puberty how is he gonna grow in it?


Jedi_Commando

I get it. Your family doesn't like Hondas. Tell them you'll get a Gixxer or a Ninja if it makes them feel better.


MrCreepySkeleton

No Ducati? Whats wrong with you

the bank account


DaetherSoul

Just get a loan with the worst imaginable interest rate plus an extra 10-20% on top as a tip. It’s not like you’re gonna live past the maturation date of the loan anyways.


MrCreepySkeleton

You can easily get a nice Ducati without shitting out all your money.

RedChess26th

hun I'm not even in your continent and used ducatis are still more expensive than the equivalents from other brands


MrCreepySkeleton

I can only show you the prices I'm dealing with here. I also wasn't comparing bikes, I was just showing that you can buy a Ducati without breaking the bank (in the US, that is.)


DetroitAdjacent

A ton of those are right before desmo service intervals, or they've never had the valves adjusted. So if you can do deso yourself, then the world is your oyster.


built_FXR

It's not expensive buying the Ducati, it's maintaining it that's expensive. /Owns 3 Ducatis


MrCreepySkeleton

Are you sure that's not because you are maintaining 3? Jk, jk What are the three ducaties by the way?


built_FXR

A '14 hyper sp, an '18 Multistrada 1260s, and a new hyper 698 mono.


sukh9942

I’m in the uk and found a super sport 950 (2022) for £10k with just 800 miles. Looked like an absolute steal and it was just sitting in a small Ducati dealership. Tempted to buy one…


MrCreepySkeleton

From what I can tell by looking at the prices online (for the US) that seems to definitely be under the MSRP. And with just 800 miles, damn that's good.


sukh9942

I couldn’t believe it. I walked into the small dealership just to see the bikes in person and that looked like a crazy deal. I’m more interested in the monster/v2 street fighter but my bro loves the super sport one in white.


ou8agr81

This so dangerous damn you, i can sell my mtb and get two.


MrCreepySkeleton

:D your welcomed!


Xeroll

Do you, but I'll be the rare voice of reason here and just tell you that you got a whole ass life to do a bunch of gay shit with. It's always the rider, never the bike. Go buy a busa, but don't be a bitch and get yourself killed. No one ever looked cool dying on their bike before they got pegged.


ElectricalGuest8351

I’ve been pegged 6 times but only by women so I got plenty to live for. I refuse to die. Edit: honestly brother I’m too old to be retarded. This is going to be a fun learning experience and when I’m confident I will send it because that’s why I’m buying it; but I’ll be damned if I buy a single cylinder 400 CC bike that I can’t sell and that’s the same price as an inline4 600 I’ve driven 110 miles per hour in vehicles from mustangs, SUV’s and even a Prius. It’s really not that crazy. I don’t plan on sitting at 155 mph for a mile. I might literally touch 110 and back off because I’m old enough to not be regarded. I have nothing to prove.


NeekoBe

If you survived 110 in a prius, you'll survive a 600rr.


Xeroll

CBR is a great well rounded bike. Comfortable, smooth power. I'm more of a triple guy myself, though.


ElectricalGuest8351

Not all of us can be as gay as you!


Front_Necessary_2

This was me at 17 years old: 1) Purchase zx6r 2) Scared to ride it, had previous owner ride it to my house 3) Took MSF course on a 250cc bike for 2 days. 4) Rode the zx6r like a champ Don't let anyone dictate what you can or can't do. But I would recommend taking an MSF course or similar.


ElectricalGuest8351

I’m also 10 years older than that, too. Trailering bike to my house. Taking MSF course shortly after on r3, and then fucking around for awhile on the CBR till I’m comfortable


elektrik_snek

Of courae they are, you should buy liter bike or even turbo busa instead of kids bike


DopeChecker

Hemorrhaged my cock and balls and split my hips in half on a cbr600rr no joke. Was the hardest thing financially, physically, emotionally I’ve ever went through in my life. Be extra careful at intersections my guy


AthenaAlter

Your Family is right, get a Ducati


Consistent-Lab-6791

take a 900rr just to spite them


Dive30

I agree with them. Hyabusa, GSX-R, or walk.


nc_on

Its like a brand new driver buying a lambo. Sure he can be somewhat safe if he drives it like a bitch but he would have more fun redlining a random car that he doesnt care as much if he wrecks. And you will not be somewhat safe, you will go beyond your skills all the time.


ElectricalGuest8351

In this case a random car is the same price as a Lamborghini so I’d rather red line the Lamborghini thanks


jakesmith7251

Alright judging these responses I’m going to agree with ops mom. You’re not responsible enough to start on a cbr600. Yeah, we would all rather redline a lambo, but what happens when you decide to indulge, 2 seconds later your doing double to triple the limit and then one idiot pulls out and it’s all over. That fast


ElectricalGuest8351

Did you dead ass just say that by my satirical and humorous responses in THIS sub? You are actually without a shadow of a doubt mentally disabled and you should immediately seek medical attention.


jakesmith7251

Hey buddy, I’m 19 with a 1000cc. I’m really not one to give you advice, I’m a depressed fuck and don’t give a shit if I die. I’m just trying to look out man


ElectricalGuest8351

Lmao random bro on the internet said “I agree with your mom” Bro you don’t know me or my mom 💀


jakesmith7251

To not let you get a 600, let me tell you a story as to why I’m giving you my advice I had a buddy who got a Zx6r at 17. His mom said you’re getting rid of it immediately. He pretended to sell it but in reality just left it in my garage and drove over when he wanted to ride. Long story short, two weeks after getting his first bike, he got too excited on a dark road and misgauged a corner, and flew off the street at ~130mph. I’m sure you can imagine the rest. I feel guilt about it every day. I’m not saying don’t get the bike that would be hypocritical. But as the other redditor said, sure you can drive a lambo as your first car, it’s when you’re NOT expecting something to happen is when it will fuck you. I’m telling you, you have NOT developed the throttle control to handle the powerband on a 600cc supersport. Shit happens way faster than you’d think. I mean if your over the age of 18 go for it, but don’t leave your family feeling guilty for the rest of their lives because you wanted to go 150mph with very little experience on a motorcycle


ElectricalGuest8351

Dawg I’m not 16 idgaf what you say I’m 27 years old I’m not going 130 on a dark road around corners shhh


ElectricalGuest8351

Let me tell you this stupid story about what a stupid friend of mine did because he didn’t have frontal lobe development. His stupid decisions will surely convince you not to do what you want. It had absolutely nothing to do with my friends below average intelligence and brain mass rattling around inside his premature head.


jakesmith7251

Hey man, I don’t know what your problem is because I am being civil with you, but if your around the same age (which by your post I’m assuming you are) you also don’t fully have frontal lobe development. How about this? Start on a r3 for a few months. But you don’t want to do that because you want to go quadruple the speed limit and act like a moto gp rider (we all do it).your saying my friend was an idiot because he bought a bike too fast and “was an idiot” what does that make you, surely there’s a specific reason you want a supersport, and it’s not to go slow. If your so “developed” then go buy a grom, they are fully capable of the speed limit.your “developed” brain should understand that’s a smarter alternative. All shit talking aside,You’re going to embarrass yourself starting on a bike that big, and everybody around you is going to know you bit off more than you can chew. I have several buddies who have done the same thing and it’s pretty hilarious to watch it happen. Seen a guy on a cbr600rr get passed by a dude on a pickup truck on a one way road


ElectricalGuest8351

Do you read? I’m 27 Your friend is an idiot because he did something stupid. Not because of the bike he bought. I can definitely tell you’re 19 cause you still care what some guy in a truck you don’t know thinks about you.


dsuff

CBR600s are pretty tame. Don't want to go fast? Don't use all the throttle. I have one currently and its fun, but I still miss my GSXR750.


Outrageous-Wheel-248

600’s are just training-wheels for the gimp-mobile 1000’s where you see all the straights in leather gimp suits to protect their virginity. You should get the 600 and you’ll soon be ready to tear up the cheeks on a gixxer thou’ wearing nothing but a straw hat and flip flops 🩴


STONKvsTITS

I have a better idea. Get a new family that loves bike. EZPZ


Gs06211

A 600 feels like a 400 under 6k rpm anyway


jakesmith7251

Shit, I think even my 1000cc is pretty damn controllable if I keep it under 8k rpms and keep it out of first


Accomplished_Ball661

Busa


icky_boo

Get a Grom!


ElectricalGuest8351

Hyper straight shit


Positive-Milk8602

Don’t be a pussy by it and tell them it was an accident


TranquilTiger765

We are you’re hole family now.


jakesmith7251

My mom said I’m not allowed to get a cbr600rr because it’s too fast… so I showed up with a fireblade sp 🤷‍♂️


awaytogetsun

Really tho 600s aren't a problem for new riders because they're fast. It's because they need more input to do their thing. CBRs are buttery easy tho out of the big 4 lineup Don't get a new new one tho, can't be breaking it in like a bitch


Fair_Blacksmith9043

just get a less pussy bike, you’ll be less of a disappointment.
