Senior Editor Zack Courts is always arriving to office after his commute with a bunch of opinions about the bike he’s riding. Too much this, not enough that, and occasionally has some decent insights. We thought some of it might help consumers or entertain enthusiasts, so we strapped a camera and microphone to the side of his helmet and told him to turn it on when he leaves his house. A lot of him talking in his helmet is complaining about drivers, yelling at red lights, and wondering why billboards aren’t more expensive. But sometimes he actually talks about the bike, and those are the parts we keep. Got a bike you would like to see discussed? Let us know and we’ll send him home on that one next.

It's no secret we're always trying to get our staff to work a little harder. Especially the ones that always seem to have too much to say. "Write it down!" the boss yells, exasperated. Senior Editor Zack Courts is a classic case, always arriving to office after his commute with a bunch of opinions about the bike he's riding. Too much this, not enough that, and occasionally has some decent insights that we thought might help consumers or entertain enthusiasts. So we strapped a camera and microphone to the side of his helmet and told him to turn it on from time to time.
This time, he switched on the camera after a day of riding Ducati's 2017 Monster 1200 S in the south of France (see Zack's First Ride review here), just as he was descending into Monaco. Ride along as he discusses the Monster's 2017 updates, from electronics, to suspension, to the updated 1,198cc V-twin. Got a different bike you would like to see discussed? Let us know and we'll send him home on that one next, when he returns to typical commuting duties.

The bus driver was nice about it because he understood that of course a ducati would break down on the side of the road and the rider is smiling and happy because he expected it :P

Man, Zack and Ari, a long long time ago I stumbled upon your channel and grew into whatever passion that it is that allowed me to purchase my very first bike, a 1976 Honda CB750, and I thank you for it. I plan on painting it and getting rid of the rust, but my biggest goal is just to learn and enjoy the ride and explore my states windy mountain roads. Once again thank you, and Motorcyclist Magazine, give Zack and Ari my best wishes, and please never stop uploading, you guys are fantastic!

honestly, mc commute is the most practical review series around. im pretty sure most of us barely or never go for track days and are probably riding our bikes in/around the city streets. Love these videos, keep it up.

I loved it how he got scared watching the scooters filter aggressively like that, that's how they do it all over the world, only in America you can see motorcycles stand in traffic like a car That's why you dont see scooters in America, it has no real advantage over a car in the dense city taffic

@bikewolf7455 4 года назад
@@slomorenga because people are really pesky about it here. "if i have to wait in traffic, he (motorcyclist) has to wait too because that would be unfair". funny that they never complain about having AC and motorcyclists dont have it. im filtering only in heavy traffic when everyone is standing still for maximum safety and im really surprised about the rareness of road rage im encountering, considering in my city there is so much hate against motorcyclists. especially if they are loud. beeing a motorcyclist here is like beeing black in america 100 years ago

@bsmukler 7 лет назад
Great video, although it is an odd feeling looking out over the handlebars and not being in control of the bike! (I know all your MC Commute videos are like that, but it is intensified in the city--just like your Brooklyn video). It's maddening to get lost at the time it happens, and hilarious looking back on it. I once drove around and around the old city in Florence (where it is only for pedestrians and delivery vehicles), looking for the car rental drop. Finally, a nice police woman laughingly pointed me in the right direction. Thanks for all your great videos. They really do give the viewer a sense of what the bikes are about.

Hey Zach what's going on man I was originally kind of predisposed to MC garage with Ari, but I have to admit you're a little motovlog review videos have really grown on me. You both impart a lot of good information while being entertaining, and that's really what it's all about. Deuces brother

Great video, Zack! Though not the same area exactly, I spent two weeks in Rome in Dec-Jan 2010-2011, this offered some nice flashbacks. Crazy traffic, right? I wasn't stressed about traffic for months, after coming back to the States. Things here are pretty docile by comparison, usually. :-D

I'm debating between a Duc 1200S or a Yamah XSR900. Yeah I know very different but these are my top picks right now. Ducati much more expensive but how much better of a bike will I get? My moto technician/mechanic friends tell me to stay away from Ducati though due to all kinds of random reliability issues they say on a weekly basis. Thoughts guys?

For a better sense of speed, many vloggers put a dark filter on it so that the shutter times are longer, which causes minor motion blur. I think it's that.

i was hoping the review would be a bit more like the 2016 Monster 1200 R demonstrating the torque (low speed power wheelies) and braking (bit of slide) by exploring the bike a tiny bit more aggressively and how many of us would ride when commuting or on the daily..

Interesting to see how you adapt your riding style to a new country. In the US you are incredibly slick, overseas I see you are a little more defensive. I am a riding instructor, so I find it funny to look at such things. One question: You seem to put the bike in neutral when stopped. Do you do that just about always? Keep up the good work.

I guess if I'd been in the vicinity of the Monaco GP track I'd have had to ride it too... but with so much insanely good riding in Europe I find that I spend almost zero time near large cities on the rare occasion I get over there and have time to rent a bike. Other than the touristing... that ride looked like zero fun.
