    I would like to thank you so much for your excellent reviews and production quality. I watch several channels from all over the world and you, by a healthy margin are among the top! I always look forward to a new video and hope you produce many more. Thank you.

    Again, another FUN video Loz!
    I have ridden an R9T and it's one of my favorite retro bikes.

    Finally an objective review and not bought ad. I was wondering why I never see these with more then 5k miles on them for sale and this answers it for me.

    Just rode a new one a couple of days ago. March 2020. Ok, the front forks are now adjustable. Still got the torque key but. Very amusing. The new one is fantastic.

  • @JohnInSale
    @JohnInSale 10 років тому +3

    Nice honest review, too many journos are scared to tell the truth, flaws and all, bit like The Emperor's New Clothes, very refreshing !!!
    Hate the Gold Forks and it could do with an exhaust pipe on either side for the symmetry and that true retro look !!!
    Get a Moto-Guzzi V7 Stone and put some spoked wheels off the Racer version and a single Café Racer seat from the previous Café Classic version and you're 8/10ths there and still have money in your pocket until these come down into the second hand market ?? !!
    Or get a second generation 2014 Ducati Diavel whilst you wait and don't follow the Fashion Herd !!!

    You can get heated handgrips as an option, BECAUSE I HAVE! Got three boxes of the unheated grips as well. Hitting the button activates a glyph on the info screen and there are two settings.

    I have an R nine T, and have a torx kit underneath the seat. It is apr. 5x20x2 cm in size, and could use it almost everywhere on the bike ( I dont cary t55, and t60), altough I have never ever needed neither of it. ( 2years and 16.000km). So much about roadside repairs, and conventional bolts... torx bolts all day! You are right with the seat though.

    best review i’ve ever seen!!! greetings all the way from asia taiwan.

    • @gizmag
      @gizmag  10 років тому

      Thanks buddy! First time I went to Taiwan I nearly ended up in a pizza commercial. Well, I think it was a pizza commercial. The casting agents made me stand in a room saying "who's your daddy" repeatedly and looking as mean as I could into a camera. The culmination of one of the stranger 24 hour periods of my life really.

    @aljaztrdina142 7 років тому

    I am kinda glad they used torx. and the reason for that is, that the head can not get damaged over using it often over time, unlike the normal one :)
    But overall I like ur review.

  • @theoctobersuprise

    Best review of this bike on youtube. I like how much exposure and thorough details in your review. Good job.
    However after this review i probably wont get this machine. I feel I slightly misaligned with the community this bike addresses.
    s1000r on other hand...

  • @robertparisi8016
    @robertparisi8016 8 років тому

    thank u so much for the detailed review, I love this bike more than the r1200r but the seat issue got me worried, I don't want a airhawk pad on it, what else can I do. I ride generally calm around 75 to 200 miles tops, ergos are perfect, seat height, power, brakes ,ect but the seat really has me wondering (r1200r just for the seat?)

    Notice the just (25 Oct 2020) announced 2021 R9T has an optional tubeless spoked wheelset...and more of the electrickery from other bikes like the s1000r. No sign if they have found Private Johnson...
