@peterturner830 Год назад

This is the road that Honda should have followed. What do I mean? Use the CB1000R as the basis for a Sport Tourer along the lines of the S1000XR, with a sweet, predicatable yet powerful detuned 1000cc from the Fireblade it would fill Hondas range with a highly capable, fun, four cylinder that can eat canyons and big kilometers for breakfast and them some. Unless they do this I am very likely to end up with a S1000XR as my next purchase.

@8ballphilc 2 года назад

Congrats fellow XRian! Get the oil- and radiator guards asap though, it accumulates dings in the radiatorgrill in just a few hundred miles so you want the protection. I`m excited to see what mods you are going to do to yours:)

@foolishcoyote. 2 года назад

You'll get back on the 900xr after you rode around on that ill crafted ergonomically challenged under performing seat they're offering. The seat is cute to look at....that's it. Feels like your sitting on the inside of a shopping cart...😁 Ride strong.

@iron-brigade 2 года назад

on point review. I bought mine a few weeks ago (same model). I went in expecting to buy the RR and left with this one. I removed the GPS bracket in front of the windshield and immediately added radiator guards. I put on almost 400 miles already in Michigan early winter and this bike is exactly the type of bike you can fall in love with!!

@sidestand 2 года назад

Nice! Congrats! Did you get to test the RR by any chance? Just curious on your thoughts between the 2 if you did.

@iron-brigade 2 года назад

@@sidestand I spent a weekend in April (in Las Vegas) at California Superbike School (which was awesome) with the RR. I also was able to sit on the RR and the XR side by side at the dealer. I would love to have an RR - but my main requirement is 6-8 hour trips...the XR seating position and amenities with a [somewhat] RR performance made the XR a no brainer. Personally, so far, the XR has more performance than I can ever imagine wanting - it does dip into curves easy (like you said in your video) - within 10 minutes I was leaning into curves almost as good as I do on my Duke 790. The RR leans into curves like butter - but it is shorter and etc... I'd argue that you don't need the RR for public road riding and that the XR is more than adequate to treat public roads like a race track AND be able to travel for long periods.

@sidestand 2 года назад

@greg thanks for the detailed insights! Even though I’ve yet to try the RR that makes sense to me. Ride safe! 🙌

I had a Gen 1 s1000xr(2015-2019) and took the gen 2 (2020- ) out for a demo and ended up trading up. NO regrets, at all. Only add-ons are rad guards. Puig Touring screen, some SW motech bar ends and a screen protector for that amazing TFT. So much fun for every kind of riding!!

@sidestand 2 года назад

Nice! Congrats! Was the power delivery any different compared to the 1st gen? Curious. Thanks for watching.

@mtbman2479 2 года назад

@@sidestand yes, although not hugely different. More consistent through lower rpms. Gen 1 had a bit of a flat spot. Biggest improvement for me was overall comfort and suspension. The electronics are pretty sweet too! Have you got the BMW connected app hooked up yet?

The 2021 XR is just great. No troubling vibes. A little bit of engine heat but nothing to write home about. Superb handling and performance. Nothing Adventurer about it and don't even think of comparing it with the most excellent (but not better) GS.

@MauricioRafaelGonzalez 2 года назад

We are following similar path… my first back was a 2018 BMW TnineT Racer. I just traded that in, three weeks back, for an S1000r. Same bikes, different variations! Only wish I was in southern ca to enjoy them more!

@sidestand 2 года назад

Right on! Congrats on your S1000r!

@donnyazoff980 Год назад

Congratulations on the purchase! Now you have owned it for about a year I am curious to know how reliable it has been? I was going to buy and earlier model S1000XR but they seem to have too many issues so I bought a Yamaha instead.

@clawbass888 Год назад

Haven't you tried Ducati Multi V4S? For me XR was on 1st place, before I rode V4S. What a perfect bike to ride, awesome suspension, addictive engine, gorgeous wind protection. For me it's fast like XR and comfortable like GS. Like GS and XR have a baby! But that addictive acceleration on XR after 6000, like catapult, still cannot forget it.

@NeuroticLobster 10 месяцев назад

The v4s is also like 40% more expensive than the S1000R.

@andyclark8234 Год назад

Hahaha, you’ve got the breaking strain of a Twinkie. I did pretty much the same thing, but I came off the s1000rr and changed to the XR. So much more of a relaxed ride, especially on the UK roads. Only had my triple black since Friday, but no regrets about selling the rr, apart from not being able to show the Audi & BMW drivers it’s best not to mess with an rr 🤣🤣

@mi6_007 2 года назад

Not saying this as a hater, but as a fan. I knew this was going to happen. That f900xr wasn't gonna cut it for you man. This one is sporty and toury enough that I'd recommend taking it to the track once before putting money on the r7. I wanted the multrastrada v4 for you selfishly (since I want one😃) but the s1000xr is equally awesome and truly happy for you

@sidestand 2 года назад

Yeah you were right on the money! Will def take this to the track one day, but also still pretty excited for the R7. It will serve a purpose for me to mainly improve my riding techniques without any assists & not have to worry about controlling the power. I was also looking at the Multistrada but the 19” wheel was off-putting. The pikes peak version was just released with 17” wheels but way above my pay grade. So here we are with the S1KXR 😀. Thanks for the support & glad you’re enjoying my content!

Are you keeping the F-XR? I have a 2016 S-XR and absolutely love it. I test rode the 21, and whilst it was slightly better in most departments, it wasn't enough for me to change up. But it is the best bike. I also rode an F-XR as well, and really liked that, was even thinking of changing to that because it was so light and flickable, and it has enough power where you need it, but rode my S again this past weekend, and it really puts the smile on your face.

@sidestand 2 года назад

If you ride the RR below 9000, before the shiftcam cut in it pulls so much better, 4 gear roll-on leave it for dead and that is a race bike, have to Rev it so much more than the old model, which is why I didn’t upgrade and have kept it.

@mowler8042 Год назад

I haven’t ridden the Tuono but it def looks like a bargain for a V4 with that standard’s price range for sure. However, I know it’s subjective but I prefer the looks on the XR & the BMW TFT dash is hard to compete against. As far as comfort, I can say the XR delivers.

@sidestand 2 года назад

The F900 at initial Tip in at lower speeds is faster while the S is a bit slower (due to weight), however it felt more stable. S was also much faster at corner exit. Torque downlow on the F is also snappier while on the S is smoother. The longer sweepers is what sang to me on the S. I may need to make a more dedicated video on this subject in the near future but hope this helps!

Did the 900 XR handle better than the 1000 or the same? I ride Malibu a LOT and am thinking of buying the 900

@sidestand Год назад

The F900XR for me, felt like the initial tip in was faster during transitional switchback roads. This is how I personally feel but could be different for others given their riding experience & body position. I’d also like to add that I’m still “learning” the S1000XR as I haven’t had much saddle time on it as of late due to external circumstances I’m dealing with at the moment. But once I get a feel for the S1K characteristics with more saddle time I can give a more appropriate comparison regarding handling, potentially with a comparison video given there’s enough demand for it.

Are you sure you’re allowed to ride over 50 cc’s with those gloves?

REALLY WANT THIS BIKE FOR 2022, I'M 5,5 TALL ANY SUGGESTION TO MODS THIS BIKE FOR A LITTLE BIT LOWER SEAT

@sidestand 2 года назад

I believe they make a low suspension version & you also have the option of a lower seat as well.

@cynicalcloud3453 2 года назад

How many bikes you got now Mr Sidestand? I actually have a proper bikey question for you today, on bikes like this one, does all the bits at the front in front of the wee wind shield not obstruct your vision while you're riding? The view from the gopro is pretty much blocked by everything and I know it's lower on the helmet so I was curious :)

@sidestand 2 года назад

3! But I’ve got some updates on my upcoming episode I’ll be sharing soon! All the bits & bobs in front isn’t bothersome at all nor does it obstruct any views. The windshield only reduces buffeting around my chest, I’d have to get into a tuck if I don’t want my head getting turbulent. But really I’m so used to that since all I’ve had were nakeds. Should I go on a trip I’d def put on a taller screen. Good to hear from you Zoe! 🤙

I own the 2021 icegrey, carbon fiber version of this monster. A little correction at 4.27, NOT brembos, BMW calipers you mean right?

@sidestand 2 года назад

Mine came with Brembo front calipers & rears are the BMW Hayes calipers.

@sidestand 2 года назад

Not sure when they made the switch to Brembo fronts for the 21 production model.

@sidestand 2 года назад

@Mark Andras There was a recall on the BMW Front Hayes calipers due to leaking & a stop sale was ordered for several models including the XR. Brembos were used to replace it. Not sure if mine came out of the plant with Brembos or dealer installed.

I felt a lot of vibrations through the bars. I'd wanted one for ages. Test rode one but I just couldn't get on with it!

@sidestand 2 года назад

Bummer! It takes some getting used to but really didn’t bother me much. I’ll see how it gets on with longer rides. If it becomes too bothersome I’m sure I could find a heavier bar end weight.

@brianglendenning1632 2 года назад

@@sidestand I have a 17 s1000r, (48200km on it so far), which most people complain is more vibration prone compared to the current R and XR. Personally I do not notice the vibration except when carrying a full tank of fuel on the track while also at or close to redline. The fluid levels in the tank do seem to make a difference. Perhaps I am just not sensitive to it or my bike is just less vibby than others. There are heavier bar ends and bar snakes.

@sidestand 2 года назад

Good to know! Yeah it really isn’t bad unless I pay attention to it & really focus.

The ADV styling is what actually puts me off. If BMW had a more traditional sports tourer based on this platform, or even a S1000r with a bikini fairing, I'd be all over it.

@EEEBA1 2 года назад

You should ride it to see if you like it. I had the 2018 version and I wish I didn't sell it.
