I'm obviously a bike fanatic and I've seen countless reviews, but your approach is very unique, friendly and in my opinion straight to the point when it comes to things that actually matter for 95% of the people out there! Keep it up, this is exactly what I was looking for!! 💨💨

@TheMissendenFlyer 2 года назад

Thank you Marko - glad you approve!

@Jarheadftw Год назад

Just wanted to say thanks and appreciate the time you've put into the content, this video has been very informative. I'm the type who will ride no matter what the weather is so long as a I avoid public transport. Even if its a 30-40k bike. Will get my money's worth as a daily commuter and weekend warrior. This video has me sold on the S1000RR as hopefully the last and final superport before I get too old and I feel like my back is going to break just commuting on it.

@marcoluoma3770 2 года назад

Thanks for another great real-world review. When I was a younger man I spent many years with a sport bike as my only ride and used it for everything: commuting, multi-day tours, chasing my buddies around the twisties, and everything else. I no longer fold up so easily but still like one for an hour-long blast in the mountains. Thanks again.

@windyrun7979 2 года назад

Nice review - thanks for posting. As an owner of a black one I'd like to add that the hill hold (a wonderful feature!) can be easily disengaged by simply pulling once on the brake lever and then you can pull away like normal. Also, the standard (non m seat) is much more comfortable than the M seat (I have both). One last point is that I've never had a false neutral on mine (just over 1,000 miles done) so may be just needing more miles riding in.

@LeeXRV 2 года назад

Remember the black models are the fastest! 😀 - the false neutral thing is just BMW boxes (I’m an owner of an RR and previously 2 x R’s) and ever modern BMW I’ve ridden seems to do it to some degree however it sounds like you’re one of the lucky ones!

Great review Andy, and especially appreciate your observations about the headlights.

@TheMissendenFlyer 2 года назад

@jttcosmos 2 года назад

Got mine right at the start of the pandemic... Standard + all the various packages, making it the same as the M-sport except for the carbon wheels and the saddle. The normal saddle is softer, but it still reminds you that it is a sports bike after an hour or so. Pet peeves are very similar to yours: buzzy-ness at higher speeds, vibrating mirrors, finding neutral can be a bit annoying when the bike is cold, and said saddle. Otherwise use it as my only bike; so everything from puttering around in the city to multi-day tours. No issues with any of that. Overall comfort is amazing for the class, but on long stretches (3-4 hours without a break), you do start to wish for more padding. Regarding luggage: BMW offers some soft cases that can go on the back. You need to select the rear seat instead of the plastic cover, and the bag then slots over it and is strapped down. Think top case instead of paniers. Use it when I go to sports, and it has enough room for an additional helmet and some extra stuff. Personally prefer a rucksack for touring though, as the large bag just make it feel less balanced. For day-to-day use I have the small BMW 1-litre tank bag that you can click onto two small pegs on the tank, which is perfect for wallet, phone, earplugs, etc.

Re the hill hold: - if hill hold is on, just briefly pull the brake lever and it should toggle off. That way you can relax in a hill, and just before you pull away, turn off the hill hold and not stall it! Keep up the good work!

@richardbryce3201 2 года назад

Good review Andy, your good self and Chops and Teapot seem to get the same bikes to test but the different styles between you make all of you a good watch, im craving a Tuono v4 to keep my KTM 1290 sas company if i ever come back from Thailand, all the best :)

Nice review! Just a small heads up- get some insulated sectional garage doors. They make a huge difference to the warmth and you wont have to wear a hat or jacket in the garage.

Nice one - I own a 2019 M sport that I've had nearly a year. Absolutely love it and love your review style as your original vid helped me decide to purchase :) I've taken it from the south coast to the mid Wales coast a few times, and on the ferry to Ireland last summer which was ace (as long as you travel light).

@TheMissendenFlyer 2 года назад

Sounds like a fun trip Jay - how did you get on with luggage?

@jayhughes6302 2 года назад

@@TheMissendenFlyer Was great -despite the rain! Luggage was just a backpack, seems silly to load a bike like this with saddlebags when there are better options for that, but I was lucky to visit family to recharge and not need a huge amount. Probably not as easy to do camping style, but I am hoping to repeat this summer and do a longer trip down the west coast of Ireland. Having said that even the 45 minute burn for a lunchtime or evening ride is excellent!!

@garethtemple6242 2 года назад

Another great, real world review. Undoubtedly a fine bike although not really my type of thing. It might seem like a small point but it's good to see BMW fit right angle tyre valves. Why don't all manufactures do that, it makes life so much easier. I've had them on a couple of Honda's but sadly not on either of my Triumphs and with the spoked wheels my 1200 Scrambler is a absolute pain to get a air pump onto. Personally I'd have rather had right angle valves than the pointless keyless ignition!

@driveandsurvive 2 года назад

Hi Gareth, As you may be aware, low cost aftermarket screw on nineties are available - mine just sits wrapped in a rag, under the seat, with a good quality tyre gauge (no rattles) and good to go, every time I need to pump air in.

Just bought my 3rd S1000RR and mine is the M sport, can't wait until the weather gets better. Regarding the luggage situation, i purchased a passenger seat which has two luggage loops underneath and funny enough it has the mountings to add an extra two just like the old bike had, took it along to a local upholsterer to have the straps riveted into place. This is then perfect to strap on Kriega soft luggage but remember to protect your paintwork with some rubber webbing from the pound shop.

Great looking and sounding bike, and definitely worth looking at if you are in the market for a sports bike. The lights look awesome, and the smooth change from dipped to main beam is something else, but I can't get my head round spending northwards of £20k, and throwing it around on a track day.

@deadlyapollo 2 года назад

Hi, 7 year ametuer AMA racer here. I can tell you first hand 20k for a base platform to work on is CHEAP. I was sponsored by fox racing and Timex and it blew my mind how much money they poured into my 13 GSXR 600 AND 1000. Its my belief the S1000RR was meant to be for race teams first, street folks second. For track only, I'd still go for the Japanese offers if I wasn't part of a team. MUCH cheaper to run.

I have that bike and great review. I tested against last gen V4s and it was the ease of riding even on broken and muddy Buckinghamshire roads that sold it to me. I'm 6'2" and found the stock screen too low. I added a double-bubble but still find it quite noisy on the motorway. It is one of the most comfortable bikes I have owned.

I ride/commute on a RR and it’s ridiculous for the road, it’s performance is so outrageous that you can’t use 50% of it without getting into very serious trouble!

Great video. I do use mine for touring and it is excellent at it. Luggage wise I use the Ventura system. To stop the expensive seat cover getting damaged, I bought a £20 fake carbon look one off eBay. Just put this one when using the Ventura as not bothered if it gets scratched. Would recommend the standard seat as better padding and also the M endurance chain. Your comment on the protection from fairing is spot on. I find the design directs the wind around the grips and makes keep back of hands warm a lot easier. Find the protection from the screen better than the one on my F900 XR. Mine is just Sport version and not the M Sport so has standard wheels

@frankhills317 2 года назад

Typing from Downunder. I have a S 1000 XR. Talking of the Hill Hold. When one is ready to "take off" (lol, flying ref there) an alternative is to squeeze the brake lever AGAIN and the Hill Hold releases. Useful if one is not on a steep incline, as one then starts off in the usual way, i.e. using the rear brake. The Hold has served its purpose, while one waits. I use Hill Hold for long stops, e.g. traffic lights, road works' traffic lights or lollipop person and on inclines, but use the second squeeze to drop the Hold, and so avoid the problem you mentioned of having to "give it" lotsa revs, to "break" the Hold. So, this is an option to consider using, some of the time...

@RE650NZGraeme 2 года назад

Just love the way those LED headlights show up at night on the Go Pro. So amazed!! Certainly agree with their coverage as shown, both on DIP and on FULL!! As for riding, your English roads are so restrictive, both in view and space, comfort and safety. I wish you were able to test ride the bikes at speed on the Algarve coast or San Francisco west coast roads or in NZ!! Or on an open section of flowing corners with safe margins - oh, the TT roads in Ireland!! You do your best with what you have at the back door!

@the_E4_Mafia 2 года назад

I’m glad you mentioned that you could tour on the bike, so many people think you can’t comfortably tour on a sports bike and that’s just flatly false. I tour all over the southeast United States on a CBR500R and have no issues at 55 years old. If you keep yourself fit and really work on your core it makes a world of difference. So many riders are not in shape or don’t keep themselves in shape it’s just sad to see them not choosing a sports bike because they aren’t fit, even if the sport bike is really what they want they “settle” on something else

Good review and pretty accurate, one thing that really bothers me is the sound of this bike it sounds so ticky and tappy I have one and at first thought there was something wrong but they all sound like it standard, defo needs a full system

@Sanjay-Tripathi 2 года назад

Brilliant review. I own a S1000RR and one of the finest sports bike ever. Only gripe I have is that it lacks a soul and does not drama.

@Andy-2022 2 года назад

Ride it harder , I have a 20 model and it has all the drama I could wish for. It’s mental!

@Grahamvfr 2 года назад

That usually means it's fantastically designed. You never hear a motogp winner saying his bike lacks drama.

Watched this video again..I took a Panigale v4s and s1000rr for a test ride last week..Still can't decide 🤔..Panigale beautiful aesthetically..but my gut thinks the S1000RR is the better package..Their finance is 3.9..Ducati 9% Great video again 👏

@SpirosGlykas 2 года назад

That's is really a sportsbike to consider even if you 're not into sportsbikes! I would really like to see a review of the Speed Triple RR which looks like something more 'earthly'. Cheers

As an owner of a M-Package as demo'd in the video I've ridden it through the winter on some dodgy dirty Devon roads that are covered in mud. For me, it's easy to get on with as I'm a shorty (5ft 7") so comfort isn't a problem. The M seat is supposed to be harder for ease of moving around on track, but I've not had any comfort issues so far. SW-Motec make some soft case panniers. I've got a set, they're brilliant. All in all, it's a brilliant bike and far better looking than all the others in class. Even your beloved Ducati :)

👍I almost agree about switch gear back lighting, it does look good, but switches on any given bike should become second nature, the last thing for me is to be looking down at lights to tell me what it does whilst riding at night,.. euro 5 and 4 exhaust ain't pretty but the weld on the joints on this did,.take it steady ride safe👍

Lights good, I nearly always move forward as you can not see anything. But the lights at night, well the best I have seen on any bike you have ridden.

She's a beauty and from your assessment imagine a cracking bike, although any future bike expenditure for me will be upgrading my MT10 to a Streetfighter V2 in a year or so. Cheers TMF

Thinking about doing the very same thing with my MT10, test ride in the spring for definite.

@shadowred1980 2 года назад

Great review. It sounds like your considering replacing the 899. With the high number of bikes you test ride, it will be interesting if you vote with your wallet and change it to something different. Thank you for the detailed review.

@hughjaanus6680 2 года назад

@ 8:09 I have a 30" inside leg. You can lower the bike by undoing two set screws and rotating a lh/rh threaded shaft at the rear suspension linkage. I used a 3mm thick 21mm spanner to lower the bike (still on my toes) 2 different seats are available .5" above and below std. Expensive.

Great work again mate as I've said before I'm a owner of this very bike and love it but mine has a full Akrapovic exhaust and remap which is just mine blowing so if you would like to meet up and try mine you are more then welcome ( BIG WELL DONE MATE )

@@TheMissendenFlyer a bit of a let down if I'm honest, a lot of big names not exhibiting including Triumph and Honda. Got the bike out for the first time this year though and got a new IOM 2020 helmet so not all bad news

@dsimon9s29 2 года назад

Thanks for posting. Great video, great bike. To remove the rider's seat, there is a 25 torx screw above the M logo between the seat and the rear cowl. You need to pull the seat cushion toward the gas tank and you will see the screw. You can get after market saddle bags via SW-Motech and/or Hepco & Becker. Both pricey and to me the Hepco & Becker seems to be better engineered. The M seat is suppose to be less comfortable. It is designed to be used on the track (weight savings) where comfort is secondary. :) The standard seat is easily more comfortable. To disengage Hill Control you also have the option of quickly pressing the brake lever and releasing it. This process will disengage HC. Works for the GS also. Totally agree with the lighted buttons on the handle bars. False neutrals also an issue with my bike. Panigale is still better looking as you stated. :) Vibrations are real since the engine lacks a counter balance. The side mirrors are c*ap.

@TheMissendenFlyer 2 года назад

@kanga-blue 2 года назад

BMW designed it so you need to buy the BMW clutch and brake guards where their counterweights take the buzz out of the bars in that rpm range that is buzzy..... its a scam to bleed you of more cash lol.
