There are actually TENS of us with Pixel phones... Thank you very much Sir.

Yammie Noob what would you recommend for youth riders to start riding on? Besides the best gear you can buy them. Those little squidlets are the future of motorcycling. We all had to start some where. I my self was a young squidlet on a late 70's 125 yamaha once.
When I looked at my little one I knew I’d never get a m1000rr… joy thief
Look on the bright side. You can look into getting a Goldwing?
Or an H2SX if you really want to go fast.
Or an m1000xr...
I looked at mine and immediately went and bought my mt10sp
R.I.P college fund
2 more kids and you'll be on a Klr650.
Ninja 1000sx is another good budget option
How did he mention the inferior GSXS1000GT and not the Ninja 1000SX?!?
Truth!
Youd be surprised at how many people prefer the GT@@rickybobby6760
@@rickybobby6760yammie doesn’t like Kawasaki. Never has. It’s the same thing when he talks about the inferior busa instead of the zx-14r
@@dsiz9421I recently started listening to him/his channel. Why doesn't he like Kawasaki? I haven't heard that yet in the videos of his that I've watched/listened to
I took nearly 20 years off riding to raise a family, came back this year.
Darned dyslexia. I read: "It took 20 years to rid the family before coming back to riding this year".
@@davidbrayshaw3529 Nah, I chose cars over bikes for that time, now I'm back to both.
@@probesport I know what you're saying.
20 years ago I did some premature dad touring on a CBR1100XX and I totally recommend it.
The Blackbird is a wonderful long distance bike and it probably the coolest "sport-touring" bike you can get besides of course and H2 SX. But even now, the Blackbird is still superb, and hard to beat for what you can pick them up for these days.
I bought one when they first came out in '97. I rode from AZ to GNP Montana and into Canada.
I actually did a 1300 day ride home without planning.
didnt mention the ninja 1000 sx and its possibly the best one
I convinced my wife that the ZX14R is a sport touring dad bike. 🤷🏼♂️
None of these bikes will ever replace my 22 year old Honda Super Blackbird! Absolutely the best Sport Tourer there is IMO! My wife is completely satisfied with her Yamaha FJ09 and will not replace it. We also have dual sport and ADV bikes from Honda and KTM, but our top choices for road trips are our CBR and FJ’s.
The ktm demo modes is bs. The modes are already installed on the bike that the buyer purchased. Why put it behind a pay wall. KTM was one of my favorite brands. But I won't support that.
Soon, it won't just be a pay wall. It will be a subscription. The future is bleak.
Capitalism :-\
Any manufacturer doing this feature-locking bs needs to lose money on that stupidity.
The EA of motorcycle companies
Have 3 kids and just bought a gsx-s 1000. Was out of that and the Duke 890 r.
Thank God I’m not the only one. Just got a new zx10r
Kawasaki has 4 great sport touring options, each takes you in different directions and power levels. Ninja 1000sx, VerSys 1000, Concourse 14, and the H2sx.
1000SX is amazing. I'm on my third
@@rickybobby6760 I was looking at them recently. Found a good deal on a used Versys 1000. Love the engine and comfort it brings for me.
@@rickybobby6760 Agree. Great touring machine.
That gsx 1000 gt is nice
What about Kawasaki ninja 1000sx ? It's my favourite?
No wife, no kids, no mortgage, no problem. That Yamaha Tracer 9 GT looks as good as my favorite "Hooters" Girls bringing me a Beer and a Cheeseburger. Zoom Zoom
Same except I went the MT09SP route.
@@dans2971 That's wonderful, enjoy the MT09SP.
I had a Kawi Concours 14 for several years. Rode it from Nellis Air Force Base (Las Vegas) to Vandenberg AFB (Lompoc CA) twice a year when I was a Weapons School Instructor. Great on the highway, but around town it seemed top heavy and really didn't like slow speed maneuvering. Traded it in on a Suzuki Gixxer 750, my favorite bike ever. Now I ride a Triumph Street Triple RS. A very good bike, but I still miss my Gixxer.
37yr old Dad of 3 and I went Sport Heritage instead of Touring. I saw the new rendition of the XSR900 and instantly fell in love! Maybe my next bike will be a touring style.
best one yet - super fast sport ecu flashed hot rod touring bikes the way to go ! comfort luggage and sport twistie fast
I tested the S 1000 XR when it first came out and loved it...except the vibrations were so bad my right hand went numb, and it was a bit high for my short inseam.
I tested the Ducati Supersport. The rear cylinder was incredibly hot on my legs, the mirrors vibrated to the point of uselessness, and it would keep hitting false neutrals between 3rd and 4th and 4th and 5th.
I also tried a used H2 SX SE (H too sexy), but the previous owner had modified it to hit 230hp and the throttle response was terrible.
I currently have a 2022 Ninja 1000 SX, and love it. It's as much fun as my friends' sport bikes on the street, and I can still walk after an hour of riding. It should be on this list, or in the super tier sport touring video.
Traded a 400 for the 1000sx , wife rides with me now. Minus the stupid design of the fairings where my knee lands when I go to shift, I love this bike more and more . 1000 miles on the odometer and I learn more about it and my riding skills every day .
Totally added the shad39 top case both for the backrest for the wife and for the commute to work . Worth it
Best bike ever!
Dude just read us 7 sales brochures and said fck it that's the vid lol
uhhhh hellooo! What about the Ninja 1000SX??? You recommend the inferior suzuki but not the 1000SX??? Come on YAMS!
Got the Supersport 950 for 2 years now and its awesome, the sound is deep and rich and it does reach 250km/h in favourable conditions.
I love it and i wouldn't change it for anything (maybe Panigale V4S).
It's a looker and the power is great for the street.
I never managed to procreate(that I know of), but I did just go for a nice sporty 950 mile loop last week that earned me a performance award for 84 in a 60, and a car wheel weight penetrating my rear tire ten miles from home!
Glad my SuperSport 950 gets a mention. Bit of a misfit maybe in that it really doesn’t look like a touring bike, and doesn’t have cruise control. But the looks are what sold me on it. The ergos are good too though. And it’s pretty light and agile. So it checks a lot of boxes. I think it’s a keeper.
I got the Guzzi as my daily commuter and that sleek stallion leaves a permanent grin every second I’m on it
I got my HyperStrada eleven months before becoming a Dad. Excellent timing on my part.
I wish it handled a passenger a little better but it’s a blast solo.
Hey, I have a Corbin seat laying around that I had for my 16. Guess it was like $800 when new. Still like new. Hit me up if interested.. I’ll sell for cheap 👍
Yammie Noob, This made me laugh so much! Thanks for sharing!
Great video man ❤
I have been hoping Yammie would do a review of the H2 SX SE. He's had reviews of the other 2 H2 variants. The H2 SX SE seems like it is the closest offering to being a sport bike, while still in the touring category. I've seriously been considering this bike because of all of the technology and of course the supercharger chirps.
My own Tiger Sport 660 is my go to touring machine.
Used FJR 1300, all set gents
yup! best value, best ride....FJR1300 for the win!
I tour on my MT-10. Bought hard saddle bags and luggage rack, touring windscreen, and a comfort seat.
She doesn't have long legs but damn shes fun to tour on.
Plus when I'm not touring I take off the bags, windscreen, swap the clipon instead of the handlebar; bam shes a track monster too!
My budget was kind of low and also needed a rear seat that offered more padding than the NEW standard of a folded panty liner ,so we got a Suzuki bandit 1250 . Yeah she is heavy but super reliable and very comfortable with more than enough pace for me
Yamster, well done on including the often-overlooked Ducati "Panigale for your dad" SuperSport. Yes, I am a dad and I have one. 👩🦼😃
Thanks for the peek at what you do during your lunch break at your shop. 😂
I'm very happy to see the Suzuki gsxs1000gt made the list! As a dad that owns one, I can say that it doesn't break the bank and I can still relive my gixxer bro days of my past
The BMW 1250 RT is an amazing bike
my fav phrase from companies is "Military-grade" other vets will know what i mean :) (12 years 11B OEF)
Military grade: (def) a loosely assembled creation of substandard parts and materials built by the highest bidder, to the lowest standard.
Lowest quality that we can get away with.
I wish Honda still made the VFR800 Interceptor. I currently have the 2007 25th Anniversary and I want a new one. I don't think I can give up the V4 engine and the center stand is very useful. And that VTEC is honestly a lot of fun
As some one with a gsxs 1000 gt... Can't recommend it enough. awesome power in A mode and then you can scooter it with C mode. Incredibly stable in corners as well.
DRZ400sm dad. Best motorcycle. Cheap, reliable and wheelie all day !
Had a 2016 XR with a full Akro system and RapidBike tune…..would wheelie in 4th in triple digits. I regret selling it 🤦♂️. 5 Stars Highly Recommended.
Triumph Tiger 900 GT- I use it as a sport tourer.. the tires even say tourer. Doubt I will ever take it off-road as I have a dual-sport, so this makes a good sport tourer with many of the same items as these bikes, for a bit less.. I was considering the Tracer 9 GT, but that was over 2K more.
Love my 2021 H2SXSE.
I'm a very fast dad... My sports touring of choice was the KTM Super Duke GT. Damn that bike is 🔥. Ended up using it every day for commuting as well
The KTM SMT is fun AF to ride, it really is a peach. But for pure sport touring dad energy, you need look no further then the Kawi 1000SX. That machine will do everything you can possibly want and need.
Love my Suzuki gsxs 1000 GT. The seat is a bit hard, but the rest is amazing for the price. I bought it new for way under msrp
My little squids are out of college and grad school and now have jobs sufficient to support themselves. Suddenly, I can afford to buy a new H2SX every 12 weeks and have tons of free time. In fact, I think I will buy all the bikes featured in this video except for the Mandello. Try and stop me! College is too expensive, kids. Become a plumber or electrician. AI can't do those jobs and you will not need a six-figure loan to get started.
Get a desmosedicci.
I still miss my K7 😢😢😢😢😢
Kids grown up…. MT -09 - SP…. Ohlins….KYBs up front
2 weeks im picking my 890 smt up. Very excited with the Remus exhaust and everything. Wanted a bit more comfort with my 1,90m length than my current naked motorcycle, but still lots of fun and power. Im 29 btw haha and not a dad.
I'm actually thinking of going old school fast Dad. I'm looking for a ZZR1100 or even going full retrowave and going for a 1980s ZX10 for some fast, carb fed goodness.
Just to add, I've just found a mint ZZR1100 for £2K! 170 mph for two grand! Just think about that.
Just had to put loctite on the rear belt sprocket bolts for the second time, the rear view mirrors, the gas tank, and passenger pegs. Then I noticed there were like 5 missing bolts and 2 random wiring harnesses that were just hanging there on my 03 Harley Deuce. I took it to a dealer ship cause it wasn't running right, I paid $1,200 for a new ignition, a new tire, and a bolt that looks like it was welded to the frame so the gas tank stops flying up when I hit a bump but the weld broke, left me with all original fluids. Then gave me trouble over inspection cause the forks are like 2 inches longer. Oh and the day I brought it home the shifter fell off so I had to ride an extra 6 miles in 5th gear on top of the 3 I had till i was home, it was also the first time I had to tighten the rear sprocket. It was my dad's he left it to me in his will, I love all bikes but I'd never buy a Harley
I love these, but I might need a “used and cheap” best sport-touring bikes 😂😂😂
My Honda VFR 800 Interceptor serves me well especially when the VTEC kicks in.
As a fellow VFR dad I agree. As a VFR granddad, my dad would also agree.
03 VFR here. My favorite bike I've ever owned. Love the sound of that v4 engine
Love from India, Pls come to Jharkhand its much unexplored by bikers!!!!
Supersport 950 S is looking preem ❤
Gonna buy a Multistrada V4 Pikes Peak and break the coast to coast motorcycle record 😎
get Multistrada V4 RS instead
No Kawasaki 1000 SX? 140hp with 100 ft lbs of torque and lots of mid-range power. That's a top pic bike for go fast dads.
Very very true. The top of the class if you ride far and also value reliability. My son bought the guzzi. Incredible bike
Im thinking the tracer 9 is probably the only worthy sport TOURING bike here. Id take a crack at that moto guzzi though. I need to at least get 250miles on a tank which hardly any of these could.
Our decisions will obviously be different. I live in the middle of the country so my #1 priority is range......good range.....at least 300+miles per tank so it doesnt take me forever to get to the cool riding areas. Which is why i bought my ST1300. Comfortable, quick enough to have tons of fun and reliable as hell. Not to mention the entry price point is low.
That Suzuki is SWEET!!
The Moto Guzzi is the best looking bike of the lot...by a mile. In fact, it's one of the two best looking bikes on the market today. I'm just worried about reliability.
What about Honda?
It is an absolute must for the responsible fast dad. Besides his Volvo and his Golden Retriever.
The Honda NT 1100 is a fine pick.
I have a Honda XL 1000 Varadero. From 2004 with almost 70000 miles on the clock. But what can you expect in a country with free healthcare and education and 150% tax on motor vehicles.
It is not the fastest and not the slowest, but reliable and comfortable as an old armchair and that’s enough for me as a fast grand dad.
Got lucky and came across a crashed 939 Supersport with 3K on her for 5K fixed for 1K she's my 6K daily, track and trip ride, have had her about a year now.
Would these be more like super sport tour bikes or something? I thought my Concours was a sport-tour and has decent power-to-weight ratio but the ones on this list are wheelie machines compared to my ‘18 Connie, right?
I've had the KTM 1290 GT for a few weeks now, went on a longer ride. After an hour, wasn't feeling very tour- like or comfortable. Any ideas on mods to increase comfort over longer distance? Doesn't seem to be much aftermarket for KTM.
My brother and i are 2 of those 5 people who own that pixel. So rockform will definitely be at the top of my list for purchasing a mount
I've had every pixel since pixel 1 and my wife and kids have pixels too. Best android phone available
@@Josh-ew1le facts
As you hit your mid to late 30s, the super tucked riding position of super sports, at least for me, just isn't feasible anymore. My last super sport I couldn't ride for more than 25-30 min without my back aching. I am super happy there are less aggressive sport tourers out their for us aging sport bike lovers!!!!
Heck, mid 50’s and the FJR hurts the neck and shoulders after awhile. Then a GW starts looking good.
Well as a single dad I would have to add the CFMoto 700 CLX, The Yammi MT07, and the Kawasaki Ninja 400...why? Cheaper insurance rates and the bikes themselves are a lot cheaper than the ones presented in this video. As a single dad i make the decision but if you have a Mrs. not keen on you spending all that much money....might be a better option to avoid her wrath. God bless, stay safe, enjoy the ride!
Curious 🤔 how come you didn’t mention Yamaha’s FJR 13000 or the Kawasaki Concours 14 models. I mean… they’re a lil old school but, there’re in my price point used. Just wondering how those two add up to the ones you mentioned in your list.
Where is the BUSA
I have the Beluga Whale (2022 Gen 3 Busa) . . . to designate it as a Sport Tourer is wrong, it's a misnomer, even if Suzuki may call it or others
I also own 2023 XDiavel, 2021 Trident 660, 2024 Scrambler 400X .... & prebooked the RE Shotgun 650
The GSXS 1000 GT+ is just the thing for a decent commute. Add a bigger front sprocket, heated grips and a decent brake master cylinder and it’s truly excellent. Given that cost less than $700, I don’t know why Suzuki didn’t sell it that way to begin with.
Think I'm gonna get the Ninja 650 as my first "BIG boy" bike, i had an Aprilia RS125 two stroke 20 years ago (the 34bhp one) i loved that bike probably spent as much time broken as it did on thr Road but when I was riding i ragged thr hell out of it to the point where i look back now and im suprised im still with us, being an immature headcase with 0 self preservation and was going to buy a 2006 Ninja 636. Then I became a father. I sold my bike and gear and conentrated on on my family. I Woke up a month ago with a real itch to get back on a bike. Now with a couple of decades on me now married to my then girlfriend and we have two kids. Maturity defiantly chills you out but I must admit just the thought of jumping back on a bike makes my boy brain go nuts, perhaps it's a bad idea lol
Don't do it, get the new Suzuki GSX-8R instead. More power, more torque, more tech, same agronomics, better looks in my opinion. I love mine and highly recommend it.
While the Suzuki may be perceived as a tad déclassé but it looks way better than the Beamer XR to me. The XR looks like something on stilts IDK
Maaaan, ima buy a touring bike this weekend. This video couldn’t have come at a better time 🤣🤣
Hoping my choice is on here but likely not lol
Sad face, it isn’t lol
Can’t wait to get my FJR 1300 anyway 🤣
145hp and 98lb ft isn’t nothing to laugh at I don’t think lol
I'm glad these exist, despite reminding me of racing SUVs. All those promo shots of them going knee down with the side cases millimeters away from the pavement is ... a bit much.
H2SX is the ultimate in sport touring. Best bike Ive ever owned.
No family commitments, I own a Gen2 Hayabusa because it never got any better than that.
The GSX1000GX is more of a S1000XR competition. Both are 'tall rounders' and the GX has an IMU unlike the GT.
Honestly, I’m going from an R1250RT to…something. Both those are on the short list.
Should mention for the people that don't keep up on tuning news that any H2 SX SE after 2021 can not be flashed as of right now. So if they want one to tune it needs to be 2021 or older.
My dad's legit gonna buy a moto guzzi v100 now
4 kids with H2 sx se , and cfmoto ibex 800 explorer on the way .
I want that H2 SX SE sooo bad 🤤
Yamaha say not to put panniers and top box on the tracer just one on the other like at 9:28 seriously considering one til i heard this
They don't make them anymore, but I like the VFR1200F.
No zzr1400 or busa? The classic fast dad 'sport' (hyper) tourers?
Still not sure how I feel about KTM my friend's dad had one of the original first gen Dukes and I wasn't very impressed with it but I haven't got to ride this newer generation
Yammie can i expect a rs457 video soon??
Kawi GPZ1300 was a bike in this class that appealed to me. More than enough power, with a bulletproof transmission and sharp looks. Hard to beat it, literally. Definitely NOT for noobs.
Got a ninja 1000sx
I am happy with it
Kawi concourse 1400 = great dad bike to commute on, even if you need triple digits to get around traffic.
Supersport S is the only option worth pursuing on this list
I would love to be able to afford an h2 SX I'm not a huge Kawasaki person but I absolutely love the H2 I think it is an awesome platform they did a really nice job on that bike. Honestly it would be a tough choice between that and the Hayabusa
I have the Beluga Whale (2022 Gen 3 Busa) . . . to designate it as a Sport Tourer is wrong, it's a misnomer, even if Suzuki may call it or others, ... get the H2 SX SE instead, .... thought I would make it easier for you... glad if this helps..!
I also own 2023 XDiavel, 2021 Trident 660, 2024 Scrambler 400X .... & prebooked the RE Shotgun 650
I tour on Honda VFR 1200 ( i guess in the US.. Interceptor 1200)
I think I must have the only Samsung phone ever made that Rockform doesn't make a case for: S20FE. Then again investing $300 (by the time I buy a case, vibration damper and mount) to protect my $250 phone seems a bit silly anyway....
How does Tiger GT stack up?
Honda's VFR800F Interceptor. Never has a Touring bike captured my heart like it did
The VFR1200f though 😊
They sell hard bags for Busas. You know it's true Yams.
🏍️ ☁️
You omitted the Ninja 1000SX which is actually a better bike than the Suzuki GSX-1000GT and I am drooling over that H2 SX SE (The H2 SX is not even an option in the US, you are stuck with the more expensive SE version)
My FJR1300 could easily fit into this category.
My 22' H2' SX-SE has destroyed my Goldwing weekend riding - so saddddddd
How are the xr and t9gt classified as sports tourer than an adventure
