    Of course this Thruxton is an amazing performer for a retro bike. Quite hard to beat with those kind of premium components. But compared to actual sports bikes it basically only shares the uncomfortable seating position. So why is it still such a joy to ride this thing? Can beauty beat pain? :D

    I absolutely love these works of art that move and manoeuvre gracefully throughout the twists and turns. Well balanced and light to throw around with great response on the throttle. I will never sell my 2019 Thruxton R fitted with the dolphin front clip, it's a forever bike.

    Thanks Schaaf for this video. I fully share your comments.
    I have recently been with my Thruxton RS in Almería, Spain, where I have traveled more than 3000 km of roads that did not know the straight line. It has been 15 days of absolute happiness. Its engine pushes as far as you are capable. Going strong, this motorcycle brakes in twenty meters with surprising definition and safety, the suspensions are hard and precise, you can throw your motorcycle to the cross of the curve and it goes out alone with all the gas you can give it. And the tires ... are gum. You can lean your motorcycle to the edge of the wheel tread without fear or doubt.
    And honestly, with my 1.80 m. high and my new long gel seat, my body does not protest after days of up to 350 km.
    Yes, definitely, this bike makes me very happy.

    The reason this bike is so fun is because of the torque! It might not have top end speed, but it has a mid-range like none other and kicks hard at almost any rpm!
    On tight twisty roads and city streets you'd have a big advantage over a liter bike

    If you’re not going to the track, the Thruxton RS is all you need for the street. You already have the hi-comp pistons, with some re-valving, “Busa” springs and new cam, with the right tuner, she will spin to over 9,500 rpm and 130HP at the rear wheel.

    Haven't ridden an RS, but I've ridden a few R's and I've never liked a motorcycle more quickly than it. The first shift into 2nd gear, I thought, oh I'll give it some and see what it's got. It lifted and stayed lifted, yet planted for a solid 100 feet. By the time the front tire hit the road again, I wanted it for my own.

    I had 2018 Thruxton R for about 2 seasons and freaking loved the bike! It simply does things to you. So much so that despite having another, more suitable bike in the stable, I took it for about 3500km tour across Slovakia, Hungary and Romania. Don't get me wrong, when you do 700km day on it the level of pain is not very enjoyable, but still. Unfortunately i had a big accident on it last summer, so the bike is no more. That beeing said, I'm considering buying Speed twin this spring. Maybe you guys are gonna be able to help me a bit here.
    I'm a bit torn between this platform and Kawasaki Z900RS. Between these two bikes, which one do you like more?
    I live about 300km from the roads you are riding on, so every now and then I get to Austria as well. It is spectacular down here. Thanks for wonderful videos Schaaf.

      I think the Kawa is the better bike but the Speed Twin has the more exciting engine. I just love its sound and low end power. The engine of the Z is a stunning piece of engineering but it lacks a distinct rumble for a retro bike in my opinion. Both handle easily so I'd take the Triumph

    Well, first of all, she's regrettably lacking that third cylinder which made Triumphs so desirable since the first Trident and the Hurrican, and still does in their legendary Speed Triples, Street Triples and the Tiger ..... USD fork and nice Lupo-lamp and naked and pea-shooter and golden reservoir springs and all - it still is a parallel-twin. Quite like The Beetle of the motorcycle world .... anyway, thanks for sharing!

    Servus Schaaf!
    Fahre aktuell eine s1000rr und möchte auf was mit weniger Leistung umsteigen aber dennoch ein absolut geiles Fahrgefühl und sehr gute Bremsen haben (Sprich wie du beschrieben hast ein supersportler aber ohne die Leistung) und da fällt einem die RS ja sofort ins Auge wenn man auf Caferacer steht :)
    Meine Freunde fahren alle GS und Tiger und wollen auch mal, dass ich eine Tour mitfahren (zb Route des Grandes Alpes) kann mich aber absolut nicht mit einer Tourenmaschine anfreunden.
    Habe es mit meiner BMW auch schon mal geschafft 600km (Tagestour) zu fahren - also bin durchaus leidensfähig.
    Denkst du ob so eine Tour mit der Thruxtron rs (relativ angenhem) schaffbar wäre? Oder ist die Sitzposition zu anstrengend? Ich bin 1,79 groß und knackige 27 Jahre jung :D .
    Ich würde sie ja auch zu gerne probefahren, aber hier im Raum Niederbayern gibt die kein einziger Triumphhändler raus zur Probefahrt :(

    • @Schaaf
      @Schaaf  3 роки тому +1

      ALso mit der RS bin ich nie getourt, aber mit einer Vitpilen, die hat eine ähnliche Sitzposition. Ist im jungen Alter definitiv kein Problem. Du musst nur schauen, wo du dein Gepäck unterkriegst. Ein schwerer Rucksack wird auf Dauer etwas mühsam.

    • @Schaaf

      they are some kind of early prototypes from RACER gloves from France. But they are rather old now. I think what they come up with from there were the MAVIS 2 gloves
