You’re the man! Thank you for the support! Ride safe, brother!

haha Thats an interesting Idea! This is the only bike i've ever owed so its hard to say how hot she really gets in comparison to other spot touring motorcycles...But she does get hot during the summer and you will feel that heat hitting your legs! Thanks for the input, ride safe, brother!

You're right! Gotta dress for the slide and not the ride. Its no real excuse but sometimes its just so hot out here during the summer months and I haven't been able to find some good gear for that kind of weather specially during stop and go traffic! Thanks for the input, ride safe, brother!

Nope, far from it! I weigh almost 100 and I have no problems riding up steep mountains at elevation with my girlfriend and heavy mountaineering gear in the back! You wont regret this bike! Other than replacing the horn a few days ago I had no other problems! Ride safe, brother!

That would be a big upgrade, im sure youd love the new 1100! Let me know when you get her! Ride safe, brother!

So far so good haha! I just had to get a new horn a few days ago, other than that everything has been great!

How much power is your bike producing? Thanks for the input, brother! Ride safe!

Thank you very much! Ride safe!

@@lpdr0k sure! I was playing around with the editing and seeing how to make it look nice for the videos. I’ll make sure to include some more of it in the future when I get back! Hope you’re riding safe out there, brother!

@@LiterFreedom thanks! thoughts on the ninja 1100sx/se?

@ A lot actually haha I might need to bring a video on that soon actually! Are you thinking of getting one by any chance?

@LiterFreedom i bought a '23 last year 😁 the upgrades on the 1100sxse were exactly the upgrades i was planning on (besides the displacement bump ofc😅). i was on the fence due to fear of ruining the bike or something. but it seems me and kawi engineers were of the same mind 🙂

@@Σταμάτης-ζ3τ I mainly road in lower gear on this video because of road conditions. If you watch other videos you’ll see I normally do ride her on mid to lower range RPM, anyways when you google 1000sx mileage you will see that others are also getting the same KM pL as I am! It’s interesting because other 1000cc bikes get better mileage than this 1000sx…. Don’t get me wrong I absolutely love my 1000sx and I ride her everyday but I had to find some negatives (compared to other bikes) to make this video. It was hard finding anything negative to say about her haha! Stay safe out there, brother. And thank you for your opinion! 💪 🏍️

@@cibsim absolutely amazing bike. I still use mine everyday without any issues (besides the horn which I’ll have to get looked at again). Hope you’re riding safe out there, brother! Susbcrjbe for more content on the 1000sx. I’ll be back soon! Ride safe! 💪 🏍️

@@meshsun1 I appreciate you checking on me, brother! Everything is good here! I’ll be back with some content soon enough! Hope you’re doing well as well and riding safe out there! 💪 🏍️

@@NikNaqiuddinFarisMohdKhalid thank you very much for the compliment on the videos, brother. I truly appreciate the support! Unless you plan on regularly taking your motorcycle on long distance riding trips with a passenger and potentially heavy gear I’d go for the CBR650R! She sounds amazing, she’s beautiful too (I personally like her in red), she’s got plenty of power to have fun with and most importantly she’s lighter and a bit smaller which will make your life just a little easier when parking and maneuvering between cars! The other thing too is that the 1000sx saddle height is quite higher than the Honda 650R too! If you DO plan on taking many long multi day trips WITH a passenger I’d certainly go for the 1000SX without a doubt! Let me know what you end up choosing, brother! Be safe out there! 💪 🏍️

@@SomewhereInside Oh I understand what you mean! I greatly appreciate your opinion. I’m just starting to learn how to edit videos and I’m really aiming to improve the audio and video quality! Thank you for saying this! Hope you subscribe and ride safe, partner! 💪

@@fix-itralph4728 how do you mean?

Like it jerks like rev limiter on its own

@@LiterFreedom like the rev limiter comes on

@@fix-itralph4728 not really…Unless we’re talking about like under 5mph with the clutch out. But that has always been the case since she was brand new

@@LiterFreedom yeah so I tuned the bike and took it back thinking it was the fuel map but that checks out but it just jerks at different like it wants to but but nothing happens and then it gives you power

35mph is the equivalent of 15kmpl man! That’s very much expected on the 1000sx if you ride aggressively but you can certainly use google to double check! Ride safe, brother! 💪 🏍️

35mpg*

@@Neeko_Z when are you thinking of getting one? The 2025 version should be available soon!

@@shawnmacwhinnie4481 how do you mean tilt my lever down? I have not tried an adventure bike and I assume you’re talking about the GSX1000GT+? The direct competitor for the 1000sx? If so I have not tried it personally but I’ve watched so many reviews on that bike before getting the 1000sx. They’re both so close but it seems that the Suzuki is just a bit cramped compared to the 1000sx people seem to think that the ninja is just a bit more comfortable!

@@Predatorhelios16 Man, respect the bike and get some riding gear for sure. Expect that you’ll make many mistakes! I suggest you Keep her in rain mode for a few months too! Since you’re starting on a 1000 you should install some training wheels too 😝 Keep me updated, brother! I’m excited for you! I still ride this thing daily and personally I don’t regret my decision at all, but, like I said I have made many mistakes on this bike! 🏍️

@@LiterFreedom oh yeah, Im buying riding gear for sure. Rain mode sounds like a good idea, I will definityely try it. Training wheels gonna look funny tho 😅 hopefully I dont make so many mistakes.😬 Glad to hear you dont regret your decision, does give me confident owning one. Thanks for the advise bro🤝

Are you alive?

@@ghstie yes I am 🤣

@@Predatorhelios16 how has it been lol

@@rolandrado2914 unfortunately I don’t have access to a 2011 right now…Maybe in the future I could bring one on the channel to compare it!

@@LiterFreedom thank you ride safe!

@@xiron_JP how you doing, brother! I’m working on some new ideas for videos and I’ll be coming back soon! It’s been extremely hot here in Taiwan this summer and raining very often! Good to see that you’re enjoying your 1000sx too, my friend! Ride safe!

@@lIlIllIlIllIlllIllIIIIIIIIIlII sorry, brother. Could you elaborate on this question? The acceleration is directly related to how much throttle you give the bike. With the factory settings the ECU only gives like 60-80% of gas to the engine even when you fully open the throttle. When you flash the ECU you change the settings to always 100%. Is this more or less what you meant?

​​​thanks for the reply, I'm saying that sport mode for example is advertised as 100% power. Rain mode would be throttle/power limited for example If you are saying it's still 60-80% limited could you link me to some more sources/info please? Because I am interested in buying the upcoming 2025 1000sx (1100sx se?) Edit: maybe I'm just baked and we're talking about ECU flash power curves @ rpm sorry ignore this message maybe 😂

@@lIlIllIlIllIlllIllIIIIIIIIIlII ua-cam.com/video/W4l36wtNUjY/v-deo.htmlsi=YzPA_tJtFOFi6pJG take a look at this video on the 6minute mark. 😊 I’ll say that the 1000sx was lot of fun even without the ECU flash! But I had her for a long time and wanted to spice things up without getting a whole new bike! You’ll love your 2025 1000sx if you decide to get one! Stay healthy, brother!

@@lIlIllIlIllIlllIllIIIIIIIIIlII and you’re right about the bike limiting its power even more on like rain mode, if it’s 70% of the already limited “factory settings ECU trottle” of full power mode than I have to guess the bike isn’t it producing 50% of its full power compared to when you flash the ECU. Which might be the reason why I was able to stay safe riding this 1000sx as a first bike haha

@@CK.one1 You know…I don’t disagree with you, but compared to other 1000cc bikes this one is on the “tame” side! Im still riding her and having a great time! Hope you’re riding safe out there, brother! 💪

@LiterFreedom getting one myself soon but riding bikes a good few yrs now. On a vfr800 now but next bike is the ninja 1000sx soon and do some long trips. Ride safe to and enjoy every bit of it 💪👍👍

@@MarvFitBikesKicks hahah I’ve been using this 1000sx daily and I’m honestly still in love with the bike. She does it all so well haha I do miss that Harley in the US roads tho! Totally different machines for sure! Ride safe, partner!

@@MarvFitBikesKicks yes sir. The Harley is in the family for several years but the 1000sx only I ride haha

@@raluxgaza I’ve been extra busy lately man, traveling a lot and it’s been raining daily out here too. Thanks for checking on me, brother! You’re the man! I’ll come back soon with some better content. Ride safe!

@@LiterFreedom aiit brother, great to know you're ok, keep riding safe.

@@robertwilson54 You could get up from your chair and show us all how to do a better review, little Bob. Ride safe! 😊

You need to look at other reviews, if you are in a hot country the bike is bound to get hot so why even mention it, I have a Z 1000 but because I live in Britain it never gets hot, and as for fuel I get about 54 mpg so maybe it’s how you ride

@@PatrickImboden glad you’re having as much fun as I am on the 1000sx. I still use this bike daily as well and I’m still super happy I have her! She does it all so well with no effort! Thanks for watching. Hope you subscribe for more content on two wheels. Ride safe, brother!

@@michaelfrascati7610 what part of the US are you from, Michael? Ride safe, brother!

Love mine too...

@@timmy3822 I absolutely love this bike! I still her ride daily and I still have a lot of fun with this bike! Did you get the 2024 1000sx? Let me know when you get yours! Thanks for watching, ride safe, brother!

@@LiterFreedom Yes, it was a bargain to be honest. There were two pre-registered bikes at my local Kawasaki franchised dealership and I got it with 5 miles on the clock for over a grand less than normal “new” RRP. Counting my lucky stars tbh, it’s a hell of a machine for the money. I ordered the touring pack for it, so that’s on its way and will be fitted. In the mean time I’m trying to sell my MT-09 Tracer but no bites on eBay atm, not the best time of year to sell. 😅 Here’s hoping I can get it in time to catch a few nice rides before the weather closes in too much for autumn.

@@jdaveca wow. Did you buy your bike from A Kawasaki dealership? The ones out here have been extremely accommodating haha I’ve been flirting with the idea of getting a H2 SX but she seems so wide and I truly love my 1000sx! My phone mount is made by a Taiwanese company, unfortunately they don’t sell outside of Taiwan as of now, but they are phenomenal! Thank you for the kind words regarding the video too. Ride safe, brother!

@@Shiver767 I got it flashed by the Kawasaki dealership! Are you gonna get yours done?

@@jdaveca I might have had the same problem as well, I got a new battery anyways and since then I haven’t had that happen. Another thing I was told is that my battery was not charging enough because I was taking trips that weren’t long enough to fully charge the battery which was causing these resets on the system. Thanks for the input too, brother! Hope you’re subscribed for more content on the 1000sx! Ride safe out there!

Absolutely! When is too hot for a bellachava I wear a light bandana and that helps too! Hope youre subscribed for more content on two wheels, brother! Ride safe!

hahah So you haven't ridden in 50 years and you got a 1000cc sport bike? You got some cojones, brother! haha How do you feel about the bike's power? Has it been too much for you or have you been managing just fine? Ride safe, partner!

Yes, I see that Kawasaki has not released the 2025 version of this bike yet, same for the H2 models! It would be exciting to finally see a new 1000sx! In terms of acceleration, is the 1000sx much slower than your R1? I mean I could see the R1 being much faster after it reaches those higher RPM ranges, but how about in city traffic on stop and go traffic? I do flirt with the idea of getting a proper supersport but I do love to go riding for several hours and out here in Taiwan you do encounter stop and go traffic quite often! Thanks for watching, brother. Hope you subscribe for more content on two wheels!

So I use this phone mount that is made by a Taiwanese company, unfortunately they dont sell outside of Taiwan as of now...They are fantastic tho! I could give you more information if you're interested in buying some but I assume the price to import them wouldn't be worth it.

@@LiterFreedom no worries brother. Since this post i have decided to to not use a phone mount for a few reasons. One being safety and two seems we have had a few phones break internally from the vibrations. The biggest reason if I go off a cliff chances are I will lose phone. So I’ll just keep it in my pocket. Cliffs are a real thing where I ride so after speaking with friends and hearing that, yah no phone mount for me. Thanks for replying though. Thumbs up and subscribed.

ABSOLUTELY! Having a clear mind and a healthy body is the ultimate way to be safe! Obviously it is never 100% safe to be on a bike haha but if youre in bad mind space and under the influence your chances of a crash are so much higher. People forget that the consequences of a crash isnt just losing your bike, it can mean so much more! Thanks for watching, brother. Hope you subscribe for more content on two wheels. Ride safe!

The 1000sx is certainly powerful for every situation, from stop and go traffic to the track, this bike is the jack of all trades. Im glad you're enjoying yours as much as I enjoy mine! Hope you subscribe for more content on two wheels. Ride safe, brother!

A few years ago I would have never expected to go to Taiwan either...Maybe someday we'll be riding together out here haha! Im glad youre enjoying your 1000sx! Is that a concors on your profile picture? Thanks for subscribing and supporting the journey, brother! Ride safe!

Actually I do not. The bike certainly vibrates more as the RPM raises but I wouldn’t say it’s enough to make my mirror vibrate to the point it’s unusable! But I’ll pay more attention to it and get back to you if the answer changes! Hope you subscribe for more content on the 1000sx, brother! Ride safe!

Thanks for the input, brother! Hope you subscribe for more content on the 1000sx! Ride safe!

How many miles have you ridden her already? She’s such a fun and beautiful bike, hope you’re enjoying her as much as I enjoy mine haha ride safe!

@@LiterFreedom 1300

Brother, how many kms does your bike have? Is she a new bike? What kind of gas are you using? I get about 17 km/l when riding slowly and less than 15 km/l when “having fun” maybe your bike is still in its break in period? 8.3 is TOO LOW!

​@LiterFreedom it's a brand new bike, a 2024 year model. High octane gasoline. I'm not having fun at all and drive very slow at heavy traffic jams. And yes, it's in break in period now. 60 km on odometer.

@@LiterFreedom And one more thing. Because I'm a new rider, i never filtering or something at all.

@@xiron_JP how many kms have you ridden this bike? Maybe she has been idling for a long time?

​@@LiterFreedomAbout 60 kms.

Awesome, brother! Where are you from? And which color did you get? I’m glad you’re having just as much fun on your 1000sx as I am on mine! Ride safe, brother!

@@LiterFreedom rains ok. Not too bad. Good roads in north alabama

@@kevinjacobson2202 honestly your brought up some great points here! I can’t really argue with them haha Unless you really need the extra space that the saddle bags could offer + top box (such as long camping trips on remote areas where you must carry a lot of stuff and an extra passenger). Let me ask you a question. Is it easy to remove your top box bracket? (I mean the mount for the box) or is it practically mounted there for good?
