Oh man that looks great! I love that you pulled in a comparison to the Daytona, I own a Daytona and have been wondering if this is the big Daytona I've been looking for
I'd highly suggest getting a test ride on the RR and seeing how it compares. I bet you could fit some Daytona clip ons to the RR and make it more sporty as well as some nice rear sets.
HIGH ! Thanks for your sharing! it helps me to be patient. I have mine in this month normally. I hope not to be disappointed... What do you think of the driving position? Thank you
Hi! The driving position is nice and comfortable but for me a bit of weight on the wrist. But I don't ride sports bikes often so that's to be expected! Enjoy your new bike! It's amazing.
Hi strange that the Rs is more buzzing, the RR and RS has the exact same engine and tune. The only difference between the two is electronic suspension, clip ons and the fairing on the RR.
@@DarkRiderMotovlogs im glad im getting the RS, yeah the RR has electronic suspension and is a beautiful bike , but the main reason i sold my triumph thruxton 1200 r was that it was to much for my wrist, specially when commuting. And i feel the RR is the same in that area.
Great video, that bike is crazy. Have you any comments on the Triumph Trident 660? I have been looking for a Yamaha XSR900 but they are impossible to find. Saw the Trident outside a dealer the other day and while it doesn't compare power wise, I liked the look.
Yo! I do have a video on the 660. ua-cam.com/video/LR55wWk2AHE/v-deo.html They are in different leagues so cant really compare. The 660 is a "budget" bike but is plenty fun with a decent amount of power. Personally id rather get a Street Triple 675R, any year after 2013. The XSR900 or MT09 is quite a step up in power and torque and is a massive wheelie machine. Overall id take the 765 but if you like the look of the XSR and you can find one then def go and take it for a test ride :)
@@DarkRiderMotovlogs Just watched the video - Upgrading from my 390 the Trident seems like a good choice and like a lot of fun. Well priced for what you get. Will head down for a test ride and give it a go but very convinced. Thanks mate!
@@DarkRiderMotovlogs I watched quite a few of your videos. Normally I’m not a fan of long reviews, they seem indulgent and a waste but the backdrop here is one of the most stunning roads in the world, hence why everyone is driving like it’s Sunday. And one thing I really like about your videos, is there isn’t a lot of you! We don’t want to see your face or any other reviewer (exceptions being the ladies who ride because after all, we are unapologetically men) and there’s little of you in your videos - nothing wrong with you btw but we tune in to see the bikes You my friend have the good fortune to be able to test ride bikes with no obligation. Lucky you! Yet nearly the entire dialogue is full of whinging and complaints, very little flattery, and you sound like you are having a miserable time lol. Who took the jelly out of your donut? :) Relax and enjoy yourself, be in the moment and at this point - nothing on the road should surprise you from other drivers. You are a skilled rider to be sure and at your age, there’s nothing to prove. Try some humor, if you’re going to talk tell us how it feels emotionally and then what you think of design. We know bikes and the basics. If you’re riding a cruiser, we know what to expect and so should you, don’t expect it to ride on rails or corner like a super bike as some of your remarks in the 1200 Bonnie implied. Don’t over think it and have a hell of a time. Lastly, where is your review of the Thruxston RS and the Ducati Desert Sled. Both of those bikes are a blast! Get your butt on them and post it up, can’t wait to watch - best wishes J
@@jjames2162 Thank you very much for that well thought out response. I really appreciate your input! I'm glad that you enjoy my videos and I agree with you, viewers are here to see the bikes and not me that's why I avoid getting Infront of the camera. With regards to the ride. Unfortunately the wind was absolutely insane that day. Almost dangerously so, so o was riding to the best of my ability. That road is simply amazing and one of my favourite. Thank you for the tips regarding the talking points. Often I just get a quick spin on the bike and say whatever comes into my head but you are right. I will try put some more thought into what is being said as well as some more off bike shots. Cheers for watching and the insightful comment! 😎🤘
Picking mine up Tuesday Feb 8th Tucson Arizona. Thanks for the review! I have a 2011 Speed Triple 1050 and I thought that was fast.. WOW! :)
Congrats! You are going to love it! Cheers
Great video. What an amazing scenery , jelly af 👌😄

Me too man. I sold my Daytona last summer and am in love with the 1200 Rr
Amazing scenery!
most beautiful i think ive seen...
I like mine even more once I added the SLR Tuning ECU flash. +25 hp +/- and top speed limiter is gone.
That's sounds absolutely amazing. Another 25hp is crazy!
Man 13:20 I really felt scared mate, watch out man gladly went okay,, keep safe.
My Speed Triple 1200 RS doesn't seem to vibe, but my 765 RS was killing me with vibes so I sold it
Interesting. Maybe its just different builds but the RS I rode was quite buzzy :(
Where is this place? The roads are so scenic and beautiful
Cape Town, South Africa :) thanks for watching!
Is this near Gordon's Bay?

Ya quite strange, but I guess it also depends on the person and their perception of a buzz. Overall, amazing bikes. Love both!

@@mholsen80 Ya I think on the commute the RR would get a bit of wrist pain, I know I wouldn't be able to handle it. The RS is a better choice :)

Under 8000 revs.? 🤣
Haha yeah the bike was brand new and the engine had to stay under 8000 for the break in period :( Was still loads of fun though!
