  • Excuse the part of the video with the black shadow in the corner and the wind noise and muffled voice 😅. I had lots of technical difficulties with my camera set up. This is my first ride after my 600 mile break in.

    I have this bike (2023 model). I love this bike, I love the sound it makes, the power it delivers without screaming and most all it just manoeuvres so well. A lot of people I know think it’s a big ugly hunk of rubbish but I think it’s a lovely looking bike.

    Always great to see the RT being the sport tourer that it is! And then you could ride it 600 miles to the next set of twisties comfortably. Nothing does that better. ❤

    Great film and great bike. I felt like I was riding it - I have the same model and I like to get up early to ride at similar speeds on certain UK country roads. This is what motorcycling's all about.

    Well done, no carbon build up in your motor ha!! Have several heavy HD cruisers but love my FJR 1300 to ride that exact same road and many others in So Cal Mtns. Strongly considering a new 1250 RT, but waiting to see updates for 2024/25 models. Good bike for touring and hot rodding. Enjoyed your video.

    Has no sport bike for the moment, had a MV Augusta Dragster earlier but thinking about Streetfighter for next season.
    Drive safe and have fun.

    Is that a full windshield or sports. How do you manage the buffeting from the bike? I thought it buffets a lot with the fullwindshield, and all the rear storage stuff on both sides. Any advice is greatly appreicated.

    • @mr.stickyfingers3189
      @mr.stickyfingers3189  2 місяці тому

      It’s a full windshield but it’s electronic. You can move it up and down. When all the way up it feels like it’s buffering a lot. But I only have it all the way up when riding long distances on the freeway. Thanks for watching

    The R1250RT is a fast bike, and more nimble that it looks, but the thing weights 300kg and has a lot of inertia. It´s an equilibrim between "being fast enough, confortable enough, big enough, agile enough", and so on. Not the fastest on twisties, nor the nimbler, but...

    Is overtaking double yellow lines illegal? We in the UK have double white lines which means no overtaking at any time unless a vehicle has broken down and safe to do so... but i watch these American videos and car drivers and bikers seem to do their own thing...

      @mimcquee0311 5 місяців тому

      Yes. It is illegal. Nice riding. Looks like a fun ride. Used to tear up Palomar Mtn all the time as a kid. Just ride smart...don't kill yourself (or someone else) for your thrill ride...and remember, these bikes aren't just civilian models...

    And you wonder why so many people detest motorcycle riders. Families out enjoying their day while motorcycle riders create dangerous roads for cars. Don’t be a dirt bag, ride so everyone can enjoy the road. Personally, I Can’t wait for the 2025 r1250rt.

    Just because you are capable of riding at 100 MPH+ doesn’t mean you should be. In some jurisdictions, this self provided evidence would be enough to lay changes and get a conviction.
