THIS IS WHY American and European Motorcycles are SO DIFFERENT 

I think the Japanese pioneered the true sports bike, both small displacement and larger 600 and litre class bikes. Large sports fairings and compact pocket rockets. I know Triumph has some - but 80s Japanese sports bikes were wild and very unique

I’d maybe agree with you on the size of city streets playing a part in European bikes being smaller. You’re way off on topography though. Kansas is flat. Nebraska is flat. Everywhere else I’ve been (about 25 out of the 50 states) has plenty of hills and valleys and winding roads. The interstates are long, straight and flat, and made for high speed travel. But that didn’t begin development until the late 50’s, after the large cruiser type bikes had already been established. I don’t think topography or roads had much to do with American styling in regards to motorcycles. We just like things large and comfortable.

All I know, how boring would the world be if every bike, every city, every country, or heck, every person were the same. Embrace the differences, it gives you so much to explore and learn about the world and the people in it. Keep up the great videos.

Just fyi.. the greater Houston, TX area (Woodlands to galveston) is more than 80 miles and we consider it mostly one city area. But to get from Houston to el paso, it's one straight highway where you can go 300+ miles between towns. (No big city nearby).

Wow you have a lot of speed bumps in Spain 😅

on about no clue, the US is far from flat, some areas yes but there are also several mountain ranges and hilly areas covering thousands of square miles, and you are in Spain that has huge flat areas lol, there are many different reasons for the differences, mostly cultural and lifestyle and nothing more as most in the US don't ride or drive thousands of miles between stops etc, they jump on a plane for the most part and have done for decades hence the proliferation of domestic airports there

I think you miss the point a bit by saying europe. I mean yoou are forgetting that europe is not like the us. Here in germany and in netherlands, austria etc you have very long flat highways, while in greece, spain and italy you have those smaller twisty roads and then you even have slavic countries that typically have different kind of small and often times more broken roads. Here in germany we have a mix of bikes in the summer and verry often you will see a bunch of cruisers daily but also supersport and offroad bikes. In greece you typically see almost only supersport bikes. It depends on the country not the continent. Also it heavily depends on a personal preferrence. I mean you can be living in northern greece and do daily 200 km trips from one side to the other on the northern highway and there you would absolutelly benefit from having a cruiser or you could only be riding around your city where you definetily would benefit from having a naked bike. You have good points but those are not universal, they basically apply much more to your specific region.

where was Kondor when the Westfold fell ?!

Ok Kondor, swing your bike north of the Canada US border for a few seconds. Up here in BC..... We are all about twisty roads, ... and mountainous terrain. And the cruiser - sport bike ratio is about 50-50 with the younger riders.... heading up to 99 % of the older riders on ADV's, Cruisers, Can-Am's, ( if they count ?). My point being that in the demographic around here, you would be hard pressed to find a sport bike rider over 50 commuting 30+ miles to work on a, say RR1000 , or MT09, etc. most of the 50+ genera would be on a Harley, Goldwing, M109, Vulcan, Bolt.... Etc.., ( I'm in the 50+ and ride a Bolt ). But then on your side of the pond, to be fair, there are MC's just north of you in the Belgium Bavarian area that are entirely Yamaha Bolt-centric. ..... Narrow roads?? .... @15:30, the roads shown here are typical of the lane spacing throughout BC.They have to be for the logging trucks and Semi's that move along them constantly on a daily basis. Stay Safe.

@Kondor Moto Rides Forgive me for giggling through this one.😁 You are not wrong. My perspective of both America & Europe, based on a couple more decades of experience than you, in Europe it's "dang! There's a town around almost every other bend in thr road." In America you fill up with fuel & at least subconsciously compute the range to your next pit stop.😉 After my 1st vid you had me as a sub. Y'all were definitely tough on Yammy Noob.😂 (He deserves it.) 2nd vid & I'm thinking that it's going to be interesting watching your channel grow up.😁 You've started with a bang, what I like to call a shotgun approach. One shot with a lot of pellets & see what hits a target.😉 Good Luck from the Northern Gulf of Mexico

I wonder if this guy ever drove a cruiser

Dices que las de aventura son lo mejor de dos mundos, pero también se les puede ver como que no son lo mejor en nada: no corren como una deportiva ni tienen la agilidad de ésta ni tampoco tienen el aplomo ni el look de una crucero. Pero en realidad no hay moto perfecta, ya que toda moto está comprometida en algo. Las de aventura son motos feas, me parece, que además exigen un vestimenta que hace ver a sus usuarios como uniformados, casi tipo "tácticos", pero más bien parte de algún grupo de seguridad. En fin, para gustos, colores.

I think people buy Harley Davidson more for Life Style to be part of a group than the function of the machine. To be fair in Europe and Asia 300CC or maxi scooters (XADV750, Tmax, Forza 750, BMW GT650, etc.)are perfect for touring and daily use over any motorcycles.
