All that cold dense air, engines love it

It must be so nice to have quiet roads at 07:30. We have nice roads in the UK but they’re always busy! Awesome bike 👌

Many moons ago I only had a motorcycle as a vehicle for two and a half almost three years. My trip to work was 37mi one way. Didn't have enough money for a car so I got the bike new and was the only bike iv owned that saw all temps including sub freezing. Thank God for Fuel injection. Conditions like Rain, hale, sleet, snow wore out almost everything at least once, most things multiple times, just from wear and tear plus continuous cleaning in my apt living room at night. Got a house closer to work at a point where many things needed some addressing before it fell apart. 40k mi in the first year and a half. It was saved be the shorter trips the next year and a half before I finally got a car. Was a little over it as an only ride and took a bike break for a while but 80k later she did good. Just wish I could have babied it like all my other bikes before and since had been, so it wasn't so worn from milage and conditions, it racked up fast. Still in good shape just very used and hard ridden. I'd probably do it all the same, was never an easy decision or thing to do, but proved to myself and everyone else for that matter that it could be done.

Can't help thinking... Damp cold Rd, Tractors, mud, diesel and miss Daisy pulling out! Good luck, you'll need it 😉

You can commute on whatever you want. Comfort levels may vary. I really enjoy riding my R6 to work but I only take it like once a week, if the weather is nice (I live in the UK so that's not very often lol)

It´s about having the opportunity ;)

That is one bad Duck! Thank you for sharing.

Where ever you live that place is a beautiful, and with that ride that's like heaven !

What a beautiful commute you have! Lucky.

7:18 my guy casually cruising past a 1920's horse and carriage?! What on earth? America really is different yo 😂

Nice video buddy. Cold early mornings that are crisp and clear on a nice bike... no better feeling!

Was just thinking how boring it sounded when you gave it the beans and it was beautiful 👍🇬🇧

what a morning commute, i'd kill to ride that every morning. Scenery is beautiful.

Nice bike and great commute. I’m in NE Pa and the roads are similar here with zero traffic. My latest traffic jam was me and a bunch of wild turkeys crossing the road. Haha Great place to live and ride. Stay safe always

No need for coffee! Brilliant. I was looking for a way to kick that habit.

nice bike, great to see and glad you had safe commute.

Sweeet bike!

Enjoyed the ride 😎🍻

Nice bike. I commute with my Z H2. It makes going to work way more enjoyable. Then you count down the hours when it's time to leave work. At least I do 🙂. Also, look into Axial under armor. Gear keeps you really warm during cold mornings.

Lovely bike and nice vid. My commute is a 2015 Ninja 1000. Does a great job, nimble, quick, easy to wheel around and versatile. Being over 50, the more upright seating with the screen makes for a more comfortable ride than my XX from way back when. Cheers from Sydney - Dave

cold weather riding.. My 1199 panigale runs very warm usually...But when it's below 50 the engine temp stays below 155 on the highway, but will get up to 180 or so in trafic, and top 200 easily when sitting still. 3 miles on the highway and back down to 155 again. Definitley nice to have a 'hot' bike in the Winter.

little ice indicator there, that's cool, wheelie's over the rise ;D you make the same noises as me on a bike!

Solid video mate, look forward to watching more.

The front end coming up each time you rip it?? Love it!

Making me hate my 821 but love these bikes. Might actually ride in the winter for the first time👊

Great vid as always. Keep it up! Can you commute? Yes! Problem is one don't keep to commuting speeds 😂. But its the only way to get to work with a smile 😁. The exhaust makes a huge difference. Ps. On the oil imho. Just keep using the same oil and brand. Different oils mixed together can work against each other. Even when changing to a new brand of oil, some of the old oil is still in there.

I commute year-round on my (only slightly) modified Triumph Speed Triple, which puts out 188hp. If it's raining or cold, I just throw on some Gore-tex gear. My commute is only five miles each way, and it's never a case of having to sit in traffic, since it's either a quick highway blast or a winding back-road. The way I looked at it, I could have bought a used Honda Civic, or a brand new super naked for the same price - the decision was obvious at that point.

StreetFIRE on cold weather it’s good to see something that you normally don’t. Great morning vibe w that v4

Beautiful "monster"...

CHYNA exhaust is going to be epic, you're going to love the flash too. Just did OFT stage 1 here, and the bike is transformed for all the better! Termi pipes coming in a few weeks, these machines are amazing.

Used to PPF these bikes, beautiful machines! ❤

Can confirm the neighbors hate the Akro exhaust. But you just try your best to get outta there as quickly and quietly as you can.

Epic video bud! I love how you enjoy the bike to the fullest on video whereby other creators don't have the stones, I think that's what you were eluding to hence my decision to sub straight away! My 1200 Bandit was a quick naked back in 2000 when it was new but now it may as well be a 600! I'll look forward to more fun to come, cheers, MB.

You should ceramic coat or apply a hydrophobic solution to the mirrors and helmet visor. The morning dew and fog look nice until u can't see at all lol.

No need for coffee, love it. I ride a S1000RR 57 miles into and across London on my weekly commute. It’s a blast.

In temperatures like this I always have a microfibre cloth tucked in my jacket to wipe the visor and mirrors. 👍

Cool misty air, engine's love it. Nice bike, I'd like to ride that anywhere, commute or otherwise 👍

Love the streetfighter...had a 1200 Monster and that sounded sweet with the std exhaust....Sadly my riding days are done after a bad crash left me with serious leg injuries after someone pulled across the front of me....and bang!!!

You make me want to Motovlog again. And get a SFV4 again, keep them coming!

Surreal NUUHHH❤‍🔥😍🚀

Definitely get the heated grips! They should come fitted to every bike. I even have them on my Panigale track bike :)

I have a SF V4 and there is always a need for coffee! WOOOO!

599th subscriber Love from Turkey

That would make my working day soooo much better. I daily my 2023 V4S about 7 miles (15 km) to work in Sydney's CBD and it's not long enough😂. Too much power, hell NO!! I actually wish there was a little less torque management in 2nd and 3rd. Can't wait to see the exhaust

In Canada I extend the riding season with heated grips, heated vest, and heated long Jon's. Looking at getting a heated balaclava for me helmet. Thinking it could keep the visor from fogging up.

Must say, I've had a couple of R1's but the day I borrowed my neighbours R6 for my commute made me realise I was in fact Valentino Rossi 😅. So easy to ride fast.

Didn't see anyone comment this but I have a 2015 S1K with factory heated grips and all I gotta say is you should def buy some its worth it! It helps riding longer in the colder weather for sure!

I sure do love a Ducati ❤️‍🔥🏍

as long as the bike is regularly used & services it'll go forever. Ducati & Aprilia critiques rag the bike & don't service it until the recommend times (have to inspect while cleaning etc) or they don't use the bike for 9 months & wonder why things have seized

truth. on bike days i get the jitters if i drink coffee first from the overstimulation.

I commute 7 miles to work on my SF. Heated grips are SO good this time of year, well worth it. Once it gets below about 47 in the morning, I would't be able to feel my fingers by the time I arrive otherwise, like when I ride my 950 Hypermoto.

I used to commute on an FZ07 riding like a squid, until I lost 6 points out of the 8 remaining I had, I can't commute with only 2 points (france you got 6 point when new driver and slowely reach 12, I never reached more than 8) even with a car. I bought a surron in 2021 and man what a fun, I commute 50km a day and have the chance to ride only offroad, just 1-2 km road, and now that it's upgraded (more than 20hp now and more expensive as my FZ07 bought new Xp ) it's a hell of a fun commute, and as you say no need for cofee ^^, some mornings (like now, cold rainy and mudy, I really would prefer to take my car but after 1 minute on the bike I smile and think to myself " how the heck would you prefer being bored on a car following all the other cars" Now I wish I had a tenerre 700 instead of my FZ07, but damn is offrad maintenance expensive, even on a e-dirt bike. Goreous bike BTW

Hello man! First time viewer and I'm loving the experience! I can't help but wonder if you might be holding the handlebars a bit too tight when doing a pull, I feel the front looks like it woobles more than it should. Maybe something to look into :)

485 subs and the video quality is better than most high sub channels and you sound great! Dude I’m shocked you should make a video on your set up

Scenic ride dude, this the northeast? Gorgeous

it needs a screen ,,, lol ,, and heated grips , they are mighty.

I live in the UK and often I would to comute 12miles either way on my Ducati 1198 with my suit and shirt in a backpack somehow the 12 miles return home would take so much longer 😁😁

I ride my 1200S everyday between Miami and Fort Lauderdale about 60 miles round trip. Definitely makes it bearable Florida traffic suckssss. Also change that motul often I just changed mine at 6k miles it was UGLY… put Rotella T6 in it shifts buttery

6:23 Children of the corn!🥺

Can't wait till i get my mt 07 currently on duke 125 it's fascinating to me how fast that bike is it must feel amazing to ride,i really like your videos cant wait to hear that bike with a new exausht

Engine probably runs hot because it probably runs lean from factory. Count on exhaust and ECU flash to correct that thigh-cooking problem.

WOW, you ride that 200hp bike on a commute, dude you're a maniac! Well done sir, you are probably one of the craziest, coolest and most hardcore people I know off. Glad I watched this video or I wouldn't have believed that a motorcycle could be used to commute! Jeez I am properly learning something here. Thanks for sharing, your totally badass.

Get yourself one of those finger wipers for the mist on the visor. I've found the ones you get built into gloves are always too hard but the 3rd party ones are nice & soft & just a quick wipe & everything's crystal clear again.

If i had a commute like that, I'd ride every day.. currently mine is a boring straight line with pleny of stop lights. Is that the factory damper? How does it like the aftermarket mirrors?

HA! You can't afford that morning coffee. You'll spend every penny on maintenance 😂

Awesome Street Fighter, now I want to trade in my daily driver a 2023 Ducati Diavel V4 . I live in California and my daily commute is 100 miles round trip on Interstate 80. I get in my daily 120 MPH. So far since March I have ridden 10,000 plus miles. Slow Rider out.

Wayback, I commuted 80 miles round-trip into central London UK for 2 years... it's hard going in the cold and wet. (98 RRW blade)

Awesome bike, lovely roads as-well. Looks like the Bedford Area in PA, is that somewhat where you ride?

Where did all that fuel go? Great ride, you're lucky to have empty roads going to work. I've stepped down to a V2 base mod, miss the power a little bit, up high but love the economy.

My 600 srad does the same, faster you go the cooler it gets which makes sense

No wind fairing 😂 lol no thank you, nakeds are sexy but need a windscreen, get some heated gloves too man, they’re a game changer, be carful ripping it too man in them cold morning temps, tires don’t stick as good and take a bit to warm up

by the way the coolant cooled down either due to it reaching temp where the fans come on or due to better circulation the more you rev it such as on a pull

What camera are you using? The clarity and set up looks amazing, it's so smooth!

Bruh if you're ever down near IUP we gotta go ride! Btw editing is fire 🔥

I thought a Chinese pipe on a Ducati..!! But you made good points for a video…!

👍🏾

Enjoy life, that’s what it’s for.

as much power as my car thereabouts - and my car isnt exactly slow - insane

Are you in New England , cuz the weather is starting to turn to really cold in the morning so I won’t be riding in but I take out my Ducati icon out once I get home.

Cool vide. Im looking to get one for communting and just a dream bike to own. How's it on long runs?

My friend got this bike with akropovich stubby exhaust n its deafening just sat idling

I absolutely adore Ducati and this bike but for the money......Ducati should provide a fuel gauge and ton more fuel mileage. Its freak'n 2023! Ducatisti's should not just simply accept these flaws/quirks. But, I appreciate this vid, well done.....thank you! Enjoy!

Subbed trying to decide between this the Tuono and the S1000R

Does the feature that turns off 2 cylinders when in neutral cause gas to get into the oil? Just curious what your oil smells like when you drain it.

Commute on a Street fighter? Definitely on those types of open road. Now you try the M25 and through London in the rush hour. The abuse you get let alone the overheating will kill you in a week!

Great vid, just wanted to ask what settings you use on your gopro. 2k@16:9@30fps? linear, wide or superwide? etc

You buy a Ducati & stick a Chinese exhaust on it. You need counseling.

The bike sounds so good! Pretty ride, nice roads. Where are you?

Be careful with your death grip on the bars, likely to give you wobbles when you set the front wheel down.

I commute 30 miles one way in very heavy traffic on my beat up old 2005 GSXR-1000 with around 93K miles. Bike's a bit modified as it started life as a race bike back in my club racing days. Once it finally dies I'm looking at one of these beasts. Always been a repli-racer only guy but this bike is close enough along with the better ergonomics (I'm 58). Now I have to decide on whether to get the V4 or V4S. Not sure the S is worth the extra money. Prefer the black fork tubes and don't need active suspension. Why did you go with the V4?

This is the first season of me riding my ninja 400 in colder temps 40-60 and my bike literally wont get to full op temp ( 3 bars ) if I accelerate it will go down to 2 and it will only go up again to 3 if I'm standing still for a few minutes

Man, wish i could ride my MV Agusta in the winter here, but it is mostly snow and ice here in northern Norway :-(

Hey man can u tell me what the weather temp was and did u change tires for that weather?

How many miles do you usually get before the fuel light comes on? Only asking coz I generally get 100-120km which is around 70-80 miles.

Do they throw salt down on the roads in the winter where you live?

Are all American houses really made of wood planks - Or are they stone underneath? Also what state or province is this; It is uncannily beautiful?

I commute all the time with my zx14 no problems. Wouldn't love it if it was all stop and go... but don't think I would like any bike in that.

Rather than heated grips you may want to consider heated gloves.

was wheelie control ON? or traction?
