Chris has been out to Spain to ride the new BMW M 1000 R, 210hp crazy naked machine, right up Chris' street. Lots of wheelies and burnouts! #bmwmotorrad #bikeworld #bikereviews
iB - looks great but could look better, if the right person were minded to customise one…do something with that headlight, with more of a RR style. Do we know of such a person?
Nice one Chris! It never ceases to amaze me how modern bikes can be so hugely powerful and yet so useable; they are basically as mad as you want them to be.
@@BikeWorldTVshow Aha yes makes sense, I’ve tried the Zh2 last weekend (not the SE with electric damping) I absolutely loved it it’s so easy to ride and manoeuvrable, Tomorrow gonna test the M1000 so I’ll see how that is , my current bike is the S1000XR , great bike but too top heavy for my needs but still a fantastic bike 🙌🏼
I always look to Chris to be a deciding factor when there's a new bike I'm thinking about. Hope there's a more in depth review later. Hope you got to meet my buddy Nate there !! Quite a guy !!
My mate just put in an order for a NON-competition pack M1000R. Swapped in his 2020 S1000R for it and taking delivery in april. And i`m more exited about it than he is because A- he`s jaded and B- that means there is a real chance of me actually getting to ride it.🥰
Another great review, Chris. Thanks. The grown up comment is bang on as my S1000XR has a similar arrangement which looks good aesthetically but I’m less than convinced functionally.
Chris definitely knows how to extract that motorcycles attributes. And who would’ve thought aerodynamic wings on a naked bike, yeah looks pretty damn good!
Chris is the modern day, FastBike guy from the 90's, doing and saying what we all are thinking and love to do 😎. Honestly, I'd want to hear what Chris thinks about a bike, before I'd even consider buying it 💯
Nice to see Chris had warm hands during all those stunts. That would be the bit I would be copying ... :) I do think all the bike journos are far more natural than some of the car ones. All very likable and you could have a pint with. The pdf for this bike did not lie !
It doesn’t need balancer shafts for less vibration,the engine is balanced.my 2020 RR was the same, bars felt buzzy wile riding and numb, fingers galore. Pop it in rain mode or just back off compression damping to min Which achieves the same thing and then all is then well.👍👍🏍️
Chris your the Best! No other road tester goes out and put these high performance bikes to the test like You, or at least they don't share it publicly. Great vid as always. Cheers
But does it have cruise control??!! 🤣 On a serious note, I'm surprised that Euro specs don't require a dedicated brake light- rear-ended collisions do happen in the real world, after all. Your commentary and riding are always appreciated, Chris. 🤙
I have a suggestion for @bikeworld. With every review video, pls upload another video in much shorter format which will have Chris just hooning the bike along with the usual kickass background score. it will be awesome.
Astonishing machine and love all of Chris' vids, especially when he drags tin tops. But, having previously owned an S1000RR and S1000R, I know how troublesome BMW sports bikes can be. I have little doubt that there'll be loads of people wanting to own one of these.
@@markietje24 I had the previous generation - terrible low rpm fuelling, poor cold start, coolant pump failure (on both models), quick shifter problems, and excessive clutch noise. But, they were both fast as hell and handled beautifully.
i love it how logic always fails to become part of a motorcycle review "do we need that on the road.. No... do we wanted it...yes we do!!" and that sums it up nicely :)
A bit like KTM - there’s the mental road legal version, then the slightly less mental adventure and GT versions. Thing is if you’ve got the dish, it’s there which is quite remarkable. A manufacturer who says, you want it, we can build it. It would be a good idea to upgrade your riding skills at a track riding school first.
Your test is always great to watch as the bikes get wheelies , burnout's ridden fast and tested,, and the truth gets out,,must definitely be the most exciting new bike out there Now 👍👍☘️ from northern Ireland,,off to get a lottery ticket 🎟️
i would be concerned it would not give me the stability that i now want from a super naked. i had an s1000r and then went to the aprilia tuono factory with the 2.0 suspension and the tuono is rock solid in comparison. be nice to have a shot to see
2 things preventing me from getting this bike 1- even if you can afford it from savings, you'd still need to pay a ton for maintenance and spare parts. 2- such a perfect bike yould definetly be a daily rider, which probably will send you to your grave early, although the power delivery is smooth, it's still a 210hp bike
Not having a separate taillight is definitely quirky lol. I mean if looked sick like panigale to begin with then it would be a huge miss but if it was like the $20 autozone light in the GS1250s then I guess not having one is even better haha
Great review from someone who knows what he is talking about and know how to ride. Personally I don’t like the looks at all. Would love to see Aprilia stick RSV4 engine into Tuono and this would be freaking perfect.
I can't get over how incredibly busy looking this model is in profile - and not just within the frame. I'm not criticising it either, there's just so much going on it's nuts! It's pretty impressive how little cabling/wiring/hose is actually visible.
He keeps saying we don't need it. We also don't need any motorcycle with a 599 or 999 cc engine or 1200 or 2400.......we don't need super bikes ........so use that same reasoning in general. We need this M1000r. Period!!!!
I guess m1000r is pretty similar to StreetFighter v4 in terms of performance. If that's the case, I own a 2017 Tuono 1100 factory and a friend owns a 2020 Streetfighter v4, and the difference is noticeable; on the straights, it flies by like I'm standing still, and he is 5 kg heavier than me. In my opinion, the S1000R already has a much better chassis and electronics than the Tuono 1100; the issue was a kind of lackluster engine.
@@Fearless154 I own a Tuono v4 2022 and a friend owns a Panigale v4. When we race 80-250km/h, my Tuono is 3-4 bikes ahead up to 230, then he flys be like a rocket.
That midrange, stronger than the standard s1000r? Or does that shiftcam just add another few thousand revs to get that power and below - what 10k? - it's identical to the s?
Maybe you have to see it in person, but I’m really not a fan of that chopped-up M color way. It looks almost like the bike is camouflaged for on-road prototype testing, can barely tell what it looks like.
i dunno man. all my motorcycles are 20 years old and below 100hp.... i'm geniuenly curious is a 2022 €30.000 motorcycle will be worth the investment. is a m1000rr 30.000 more fun than €3000,- bike?
