I own a 2023 CBR1000RR and love it. It is the best looking motorcycle ever designed. The Ducati Panigale is a close second but the beautiful dual DRL on the Honda with the red front fender are unmatched. Power is ferocious. Handling is solid at speeds over 100. The rear sets are more comfortable than Yamaha or Ducati. Reliability is epic. And the front of the RR is better looking than the SP. Your comments were entirely subjective. You should have taken your warranty to the dealer and had them fix the problem.
Dealer visits total 12. Honda deemed is a Lemon and bought it back for me at 100%. I ended up getting an R1M I never looked back. Own a 2023 fireblade SP currently and I love that bike. The CBR 1000 RR was terrible and the worst bike I’ve ever ever owned in my life. Glad you like yours you’re about the only one that does.
@@CK_RIDES , no he isn't.
😲TELL 'EM, COLBY!
How much is it for
@@CK_RIDESI'm in Nigeria please I need to know more about CBR 1000rr and want to purchase it how can I get it please I need your help for that
I have the 2017 Blade, almost exactly the same as yours (different engine map). Now, in the UK, you can only buy the CBR1000RR-R. However, if you want a very, very fast road bike that you can use on a daily basis then go for the RR if it's available where you live. It's much more comfortable on the road and really does feel like a 600 with its agility. I swapped my 2015 GSXR1000 for the Blade and the difference chucking it into a corner is like night and day - I nearly crashed on the test ride because it turned in so quickly! That is what makes it so much fun on the road, top speed means fuck all. It's all about cornering and having the confidence in the bike. It only has 189BHP (not much I suppose....😏), but that is definitely enough on the road. Set the suspension up for your weight and riding style and you can't go wrong. If you want a track day weapon go for the CBR1000RR-R, ZX10, R1M, S1000, Duke etc. Just don't expect them to be comfortable on a long ride!😂
(I know that the US version is power restricted for emissions, but you had yours flashed - so, if anyone is taking one on a test ride then please keep that in mind if you are in the US. They are not restricted in the UK).
BTW, I owned a 2004 Kawasaki ZX636R B1H (proper track weapon - check the reviews) and the Blade is even more agile but with around 75BHP more. I was always a Kawasaki fan boy (started with an AR50 converted to 93cc, jetted, racing reed valves etc.) and have owned so many over the years. However, the CBR1000RR has a much better build quality alongside the agility in comparison to my Kawasaki's. The Kawasaki's I have owned had amazing engines and huge amounts of charisma but were always flawed in other ways (great front end, crap back end). I used to hate Hondas - I thought they were boring, but I changed my perception with the CBR1000RR.
Anyway, great video, but I suppose it comes down to what sort of riding you are into and whatever floats your boat.
Thats awesome.
CBR1000RRR is sick! Not the CBR1000RR but still an good motorcycle. But the zx10r maybe be the better better bike on paper.
Love my ZX-10RR. Hated the CBR1000RR.
My biggest complaints on the ZX10R is the bright green. I much prefer the blue of Yamaha or red of Honda. Suzuki has cool colors but the green, I just can’t fall in love w it.
I also have a 2023 Kawasaki ZX-10R KRT. Two questions where Can I buy map and I can’t find the Yoshi pipe that you have installed on yours. Where can I find it?
Isaac I order my pipes DIRECTLY from Yoshimura. They will make it if they don't have it. The map is on Woolich Map Share.
I literally just bought this exact same bike. I am having issues with my quick shifter as well. But that is literally my only complaint. This bike feels like a 600 in the canyon as far as throwing it around. It’s so easy to maneuver and ride. I went from a Honda, CBR 600 RR to this. I will never go back to Honda. Every bike that I buy from here on out will be a Kawasaki.
James I have owned them all. Hands down the WORST bike I’ve ever had in the arsenal. Love my Kawasaki’s. ZX-6, ZX-10R and ZX-10RR
What issues you having with the quickshifter mate?
It’s a hell of a good bike especially for street riding.
@@RCFourFivehey Paul let him know how you do those Honda's 😉
@@utuber4u1 yeah Rory, not sure why they had QS issues 🤷♂️
Love my double r
Don't have the abs model have no issues
I’m so glad someone does.
Crazy you’ll never get reliability like you do on the cbr i paid 12k for one with 1,500 miles can’t beat it
it's crazy....
I have put 18,600 on my 2018 CBR 1000RR and I have no complaints. The only modifications have been full Akropovic exhaust, K&N air filter, PowerCommnderV and Dyno Jet auto tuner. I know that I should flash the ECU but the reality is that I would never use all the power of the bike. Honda is very reliable and doesn’t have any recalls.
When doing cold starts please turn off one then start the other. It is annoying hearing the other on the background!
🤣
So are you on the Kawasaki payroll now? There’s plastic all over it too.
This was such a great video. I like the comparison, it’s very entertaining even if these bikes are not on my wish list. I’m team yamaha, and I’m considering the bmw s1000rr (I have an R1). It would be cool to hear your thoughts on the bmw if you get your hands on one of those
I have an M 1000 RR on order. That will be my next build series.
Only thing i can say about the cbr cause i have a 22 is that you have the wrong exhaust on it. I have akra on mine and it sounds way more aggressive then that yoshi, looked like the silencer was still in it? Im not just a honda fanboy but I like my honda but i will also agree on the wheel base, i think its alittle short, but the quick shift and auto blip has been fine, But i preferred the styling in the honda over the kawi, but that is all buyers preference. I dont have the check engine light issues you spoke about . Nor do i have ABS, but im not a fan of abs on bikes because if it decides to malfunction it can and will wreck you no matter what model it is. And yes I was pretty salty that i had to spend another 600 for the quick shifter after spending 18k but overall i do love my cbr its very nibble and does feel like a 600 with liter bike power. 4th gear pulls and highway top speed is where this bike shines more. Pretty honest review though. Cheers.
Thanks Danny. I hear you ❤️
Thanks for the video. We all have our opinions. I think I would still take that Honda over the Kawasaki.
But would probably agree with you on your Yamaha
For sure.
Nice video. I have the 22 CBR1000RR. I’ve transformed mine though. I’ve done everything on it. Every. Thing. Lol
The final piece of the puzzle was right flash from KCS in Houston. Paul is a genius.
I learned recently that quick shifters don’t work properly unless your chain slack is precisely set. There’s a chain tension setting in every owners manual or service manual with the setting for your bike. That’s the first place to start when the quick shifter doesn’t work well, or is touchy / fussy.
Peace ✌🏽
Mine barely works. Misshifts and is super lazy post ECU Flash.
What brand and model QS is it?
@@CESONER OEM HONDA
Same one I have. I’m going to get the slack setting on my chain correct. And if that doesn’t work? I’m going to try an Alpha Racing quick shifter.
If you have 2017-2023 CBR, the chain slack setting is 30mm. Aka 1 1/4 inch of free play.
It’s printed on the swingarm stickers.
✌🏽
My RR is an animal, you need a better exhaust amd a better tune/flash
Feels like a 600? Were you riding in power mode 5, cause power mode 1 moves. Ive had no issues with with mine, so you probably just got that random one that has problems.
I feel a lot better now hearing you say you’re 50 because I got rid of my bike (CBR1000rr) back in 2015 but now want to get another sport bike but at 43 I figured I was to old lol.
Shit 😂I thought I was too old at 35 lol well let me get my happy ass on a bike
@@obriantomlinson2776 I happy to say I now have a ZX10R lol
Just got a brand new, old stock 2022 ZX10R which is essentially as far as I can tell the exact same bike as the 2023 apart from the slightly different finish. Agreed about the QS, downshifts feel like I'm going to break the damn thing but I'll probably get used to it eventually, not the end of the world. Coincidentally also over 50 rider here, with roughly 1 1/2 year riding motorcycles, they make my life better. Thanks for the video!
I do think the QS is indeed a Kawasaki characteristic.
What bike did you start riding on?
@@hanoitripper1809 In started on a YSR as a kid
@@hanoitripper1809 mine was a Kawasaki Z900 which I still own, grear bike
Same here got my zx last month and it's a 22 model. Ride safe!
The 1000RR fireblade was meant to be a litre bike in a 600 flickable body. A proper comparison would be the 1000RRR to the ZX10R and im glad you've had nothing but good experiences thus far with your Kawi but they are not known for their reliability something major will break unexpectedly on the Kawi that probably shouldn't. And Honda even though they have fallen short on their newer models aside from the RRR... On average they are better built and balanced better the Honda 600RR is a perfect example of that or the RRR fireblade SP or the 1000RR SP but the "1000RR" SP (rare) but the regular 1000RR again was meant to be a "litre bike in a 600 body." which i will admit as a Honda fanboy they failed majorly on the 1000RR its known as the weaker litre bike that needs a Tune and full exhaust to unlock its capabilities. BUT the Honda 600RR's and the RRR's and any SP models are where it's at with Honda. Ride a RRR SP and it out does the ZX10R in every way. No shade to Kawi... But sometimes alot of extras for less money means you sacrifice quality. Honda needs to update but Their brakes their engine their clutch and Ergo standards are better.
I really want a Honda RRR or SP model to really ride myself to experience that. I'm going to see about getting an order in.
Dudes really comparing a 30k bike to an 18k bike. This is the right comparison and Honda just loses badly here.
I’ve had no issues with my CBR 1000rr 2023 yet. At 800 miles now and it feels light like a 600 love the Honda so for probably get a BMW in about a year to add to my collection
The BMW S 1000RR is a DREAM to ride. I have a BMW on order.
Me and you both...s1k is the next for my collection.
Have the 2018 cbr 1000rr fully tuned full exhaust air intake and velocity stacks and I love it fucking rocket with 600 handeling
@@joshuasikora2465 I'm stoked for you. Enjoy the ride.
That Plastic is not ur ordinary Plastic.. its to reduce the weight.
Hondas r better at Track vs Kawasaki and Gsxrs due to its light weight or else its the slowest bike in all 1000cc catagory
Bud...PLASTIC is PLASTIC. And I'm not on the track. This is real world riding. And with the CEL issue...I would never take this bike to the track. Could you imagine what a debacle that would be??? That a place for my trusty R1's.
I wonder why kawasaki has so many championship races yet people say its not reliable also kawasaki has the fastest production bike 😂and its not reliable kawasaki is as good or more than alot of the bikes made today
@@CK_RIDESyou used woolich to flash the ECU? There's your source for any issues you're experiencing 👍
Feeling like a 600 is a good thing. Means it's easy to ride
maybe you could give me the cbr if you don't want it anymore 😅
Honda has great bikes. But theres no tech like the kaw has and it cost more. So honda was a no for me. So i am buying the 23 zx10r tomorrow and cannot wait lol. Im 31 and its been 5 yrs since my last bike. So im excited asf right now lol. Im buying the black/grey with gold accents. Its beautiful imo. Was goimg to get the krt green but no local dealer had one. And i love the black and grey too so im buying that one.
Joshua, I’m stoked for you brother that’s gonna be amazing
You’re 50 years old? I would have guessed like mid 20s 😮. great comparison, thank you! Ive seen a couple of your videos now and the ZX-10r seems like a great bike at a really good price.
Yes. Almost 51. I love the ZX-10R. I'm picking up my BMW S1000RR this week. Super excited.
@@CK_RIDES the S1000RR is awesome. Sadly, the dealer in my country is horrible, they’re selling the S1000RR M package for like $40k 🤣 base model for $31k.
I’ve Had two Zx10, one r1, one gsxr1k and 2 cbr1k. they all had over 15k miles when sold. But I came back to a Cbr1k.
I just subbed and it went from 999 to 1k lol nice
CSS...THANK YOU SOOOOOO MUCH!!!! I sincerely appreciate it.

I don’t know what you said, but it sounds good
Good helpful info, Thanks. 👏👏👏 I really want an R1 but the hype says they are uncomfortable,are they? Commutes and the occasional trip will figure into this along with every day riding, 6' tall and love rpm's and top end on no traffic roads. You can't really tell much from a test ride.👏👏👏💀
How can anyone take your opinion on a sports bike seriously when you're rocking huge inch and half chicken strips down each side of your tyre. Sure your bike might have had a few issues which can happen even to super reliable bikes like hondas so that can taint your opinion on its reliability. But to make a video dogging on the cbr and how it performs and handles when you clearly haven't properly put it through its paces the way it was designed to do. To really appreciate a cbr1000rr you've got to be railing it through twisties or on the track where it's marginal power deficit is negligible against its rivals. If all you do is point and squirt down the highway then sure the honda will feel lackluster against the 200hp+ rivals.
I feel like the plastics on the zx10r are also plasticy on my new gsxr 600 the plastics look like carbon fiber design which I really like
Thats awesome...
What camera do you use because damn😵💫😵💫❤️
Looks like your heal would rest in the pipe on the Honda. I agree though Zx10r over cbr1000rr
I've narrowed down my choices for a new bike between a near-new 2019 ZX-10RR and a brand new s1000RR....Any suggestions? I ride out in the middle of nowhere in New Mexico and don't track.
The brand new BMW S1000RR 100%.
@@CK_RIDES That much better? Anything in particular I need to do after purchase? I'm currently on a 2000 ZX-9R (which is absolutely awesome), so I'm completely new to these computerized beasts. Thanks -
Don't screw with the mapping you don't get it.
He had nothing to do with the mapping. It was literally something wrong with the engine on the CBR 1000 RR.
Honda have really dropped the ball as far a build quality on their later models, their paint finishes are left to be desired (thin and scratch easy), they are very plasticy and small things like the single use, disposable hose clamps on the coolant hoses are a really nasty touch. I had a 2018 CB1000r and it was a disgrace, rusting tank and paint falling off the sump... I now have a 2017 ZX10R and it is practically close to perfect, well finished, everything is very solid, alot of metal used still and perfect build quality. I agree with your video 100% And Honda are pretty good at making boring, under-powered bikes too.
Awesome video been riding sport bikes for years did see a new Honda on display last year really thought it looked sharp but own a Yamaha mt 10 and its a fun bike
Subscribed
Idk i bought my cbr1000rr 2023 and came with the quick shifter...dealer really got a extra 600 out of you. If you get a check engine light and turn off the bike especially abs it wont show,if the lights come on check it while the bike is on.
You got lucky. Thanks for the suggestion
Why do you have a regular r1 and an r1m?
Because I got a deal on both. Couldn’t pass it up.
In your other video with the r1 you said the honda stock can sounded good and the r1 stock can you couldn't hear so which one is it
Well wait a minute, if someone flashes the bike, then the electronics start going haywire, how is that Honda's fault? If you want a luxury bike, get a Ducati or a Brutale. Honda doesn't make luxury bikes, they never have.
The CEL problem happened way before we ever flashed it. We were trying to remedy it with the flash. The HP sucked before and after the flash. Honda CBR1000RR = 💩
@@CK_RIDES Assuming it's a manufacturer defect, I don't think flashing it would fix the problem. Since it's a new bike, why didn't you just take it back to the dealer?
@@lamachhorne9043 Took it back 6x. Enough was enough and traded it in for a Kawasaki ZX-10R KRT edition. Problem solved. Never looked back.
What an idiot.... He must be the only person that thinks a cbr is cheap and slow.
Guess he's just new to bikes👍👍🤣
My dream bike.❤❤
Can anybody please borrow me 6.000$ for the 2008 abs model?😊
Also the Hondas are very restricted mess with the air box and velocity stacks and get it returned I think you'll be happy
100%
I bought my 2023 cbr with 1600 for 13k the cbr has a lot of restrictions that takes the fun out of the bike
Too bad that Honda looks 🔥
Similar to the bmw
I know
I will say the shorter wheelbase on the Honda is on purpose. Makes the bike more flickable. But yes, agreed that Honda is falling behind in the game.
💯
It's true that these two motorcycles cannot be compared ZX 10R vs CBR1000RR-R FIREBLADE 100% of course the winner is Kawa Zx10r
You're not wrong
People like to say; for a 17k bike,don’t expect to much.
What… To be honest..
Bikes today are to pricey.. for almost nothing.
I paid 5k for my 08 CBR1000 with a few mods. Not tu much… and you see that 2023 ZX10R..?
My friend has one and he still hurt…. I gapped him 3 bikes distance.
I hear you.
How to be you Sir? Hope you give that bike to me and I will love it..hehe
Its been sold
The shifts are alittle lazy my 2020 zx10r is good but not perfect
I concur 💯
I have both these bikes the Cbr I’ve had no problems and it’s been a great bike
This Honda is the base model. Try the fire blade. 😊 it’s 30,000 dollars But it’s a better Bike
One day when Honda gets it right.
@@CK_RIDES yea I agree for sure .. I like the older 2006 models 👍
I'll take the ninja
Great choice. ❤️
I had my '19 CBR 1000RR SP with full akro titanium dynotuned by Chris Moore with 170 to the wheel. So the bike pulls hard. The honda is unique in the way that its is more compact and more nimble than the competition. The SP brings in ohlins dynamic suspension, QS and brembos. So the bike feels great. Regarding the cheep plastic, I agree. I had the ABS model, and I got rid of it. Got the SP as leftover for 15k+ fees
The honda is better in my opinion
How come your new 2023 looks like the older model?
Because Honda hasn’t had a facelift on 10 years. That’s why. Honda sucks
Because his bike is the double RR not the new Triple RRR
@@allnighterist It says it right on the fairing.
Funny thing that I recently noticed about liter bikes, is that the only the more money than brains club can afford to buy these bikes new from the dealer with all the mark ups and all. I’m not bitter or anything from being priced out of the category. But the same people also immediately take their brand new bikes to the track and hammer on them right out the gate. Then you get us hard working chumps looking to buy a used current gen liter bike from the original owners whom are asking close to full price? Y’all more money than brains kids keep posting yer track day pics on yer social media profiles, it really helps me to know which bikes not to buy.
When you're rich AF like I am...bikes are just things. I can always buy more. I just buy them, modify them, make tons of videos and sell them and move on to the next.
@@CK_RIDES Trash talking aside, thanks for the comparisons.
That makes me sad lol, as a smaller gal the cbr is perfect for me, I’ve had issues with the engine light but honest to god I looove my Honda, ridden an S1k and an R1 and I still prefer my cbr all day, pretty interesting to see the Kawi over the Honda tho, maybe I oughta give one a go
Hi what's your thoughts on buying a new 2023 0miles CBR1000rr they discounted it to 15k. I think it has no ABS and no quick shifter. What are your thoughts on the deal? Bike was 16.5k and they are wanting to sell it for 15k with zero miles it doesn't even have the battery installed yet. I honestly never owned a 1000cc super sport before. I ride a z900 currently. I also found some person owning a zx10r 2022 with 3.5kmiles he wants to sell it for 14k. so I am honestly leaning towards zx10r because it has a lot of electronics aid. CBR with ABS is kind of dangerous? whats your thought on that? thanks.
Idk man in my country cost less with up and down qs but again it have less power then other 1liter bikes
Thats awesome
Are you trying to ger a 1000cc motorcyles collection? Haha
🤣
You still sticking to thd story you imported this US market SC77? 😂
Bought it straight from the Honda dealership down the street. Right off the rack
The bike sucked.
yet in this video you claim like the previous video you got it special imported, the first 2023 in the country before anyone else. 🤷♂️
your ripped pretty hard on the honda but I agree thier bikes have les features adn more expensive
I shared my opinion from personal experience. I wish the narrative was different.
Honda has so many issues with the 1000 i would not get one and i own 2 hondas. The QS issue on the K kind of makes it deal breaker too. Thanks for sharing.
I wish I had better news. Just an honest review.
Have a 2015 cbr1000rr no riding aids, no electronics, and even thou im not by any means a great rider it makes me feel and look like im one, that bike will do anything to keep u on the saddle, friendly for beginners, and a beast when u need it, the best of both worlds... and yes... reliable as hck
Started up better than that kawi
can you do a video on how to install the NRC fender on the ZX10R? thanks in advanced.
That would be kind of hard since I already did it. But I can show you how I did it. It’s not hard. You just have to take the rear cowling apart a bit to get to the bolts.
I've got a zx650 r 2023 and I've already outgrown in less than 6 months; have my pre-booked H2 coming in mid-may; was somewhat seriously considering the cbr1000rr but not anymore - will enjoy the H2 and then might get an R1M; great vid btw - subbed! Rubber side down!
Roger thank you for the support. I sincerely appreciate it.
I think he mea t rubber side down
want a comparison between CBR 1000RR-R vs BMW S1000RR
Sourav...the S1000RR is in transit and will hit US soil in 2.5-3 weeks. Stay tuned. I won't be buying a 1000RR-R anytime soon but I'll look into it.
@@CK_RIDES you can borrow CBR 1000RR-R just to give your opinion about it for public ✌🏼
@@souravmazumdar1688 I dont borrow anything. I BUY and OWN all my stuff. Havent wanted a CBR 1000RR-R. They need a lot of work to improve them. Maybe 2024 when they come out with the new chassis.
But the R1 doesn't have cruise control, which is a Major breakthrough on these type bikes. Instead of taking a break you can just set cruise for a couple minutes. Rode all the best for almost 30 years, here I come, get ready :) thanks you're an Artist of the Sport
🙏🏻
Which better in ur opinion R1 or CBR?
@@ahmedabdulaziz7271 CBR for the streets, I went easy on the wallet and got a 24 ZX6R, love it
I am new to bikes, i wanted to know why the wheel turns alone when you started the zx10 and why do they turn when in neutral and give gas? Thankss
Great question. Vibration from the engine and even though the clutch is disengaged the gear box is still spinning. I hope this helps.
There's still drag from the drivetrain to the transmission, there's just no clutch pressure forcing them together. The little bit of drag against still can have enough power to turn the wheel
Do you take your bikes on the twisties? The track? Gotta put those beast to work. It's what they are made for...
Yes. I do. We have track day this next weekend.
@@CK_RIDES hell yeah! Have fun and be safe!
I like your narrow little stands for frontzees. How nice! No lateral diddling, side to side.
Welded by yours truly. 🤓

Thank you so much.
Have you had an experience with a 23’ GSXR1K? Looking at a 23’ KRT for 15.2 OTD or a 23 GSXR1K for 14.6 OTD.
The reason I ask is the bikes are 2 states away from me, but I have an old family friend who owns a dealership. So I’m able to secure some good pricing.
i think honda needs to improve their electronic system of that bike . .
I could not agree more.
@@CK_RIDES 😅😅😅😅
went for a ride today after work beautiful weather
It was a great day to ride.
So did I,,I’ve been waiting for a couple days all the rain we had,,
This guy gives you guys Nothing but the truth great videos best I've ever seen 👏
Thanks for the support GW. Means a ton to me.
Mine is Butter shifting, but my bike was $32k
awesome
thanks man! such a great vid! I learned a lot from this.. tanks!!
Khate...I appreciate that Brother.
I just sold my 17 sc77, and it IS squirrely high in the rev range.
unfortunately on the kawi after flashing the ECU the auto blip does not work correctly, After talking both with chris moore (moore mafia) & woolich they both confirm tuning these bikes screws up the downshift/auto blip, its frustrating when woolich who makes the software to flash these ecu’s doesn’t even know. I found all this out after having my 21’s ecu flashed.
It's pretty bad. If I cant get this fixed this bike will be traded for a Ducati Panigale V4 or V2 Bayliss
I have the same issue with mine.
@@megatron7811 Its so interesting that Kawasaki has not addressed this. It seems so widespread
@@CK_RIDES If that's the only issue with the bike, you could just get an aftermarket quick shifter installed and calibrated.
Look at strain gauge QS units
i am facing same problem on my 2019 CBR1000RR with woolich race kit. Screws up my shifting and no support from woolich what so ever
Disable the abs
Indeed.
Get. CBR and get Moore Mafia to tune it.
This
Where you from
I’ve owned fire blade and compared to my ZX10r their is a big difference stock for stock the Honda is lacking some for 1000cc bike,, a tune would definitely change things but I don’t think it would b enough,,,I didn’t know how much until I got a ZX10R,,,for a stock bike it is a big difference from my personal experience,,
Lee....you're not alone in that opinion. Thats exactly what I experienced. Even post ECU flash the Honda CBR is a slug.
😢
No susuki
Just put the Yoshi on my zx10r I love it!
1k subs here you come!! Let's gooooo
Thanks a million Tulski...I appreciate the support. 🙏🏻
I too have had a go on both it would definitely the kawasaki only down side was the gear box a little bit cocky
Stephen you're not alone in that opinion.
Nic ♥️ u. Wow
Thanks Bis...
I’m a Honda person, I have a 2006 CBR1000rr, but I have to agree with you, the new CBR1000rr does not impress me at all. I’m looking to get the ZX10r because I can’t afford the CBR1000rr-r…..I mean for $18k plus on the CBR, it has no included quickshifter, no Brembo brakes, nothing special about the suspension, and it has the least horsepower in its class.
I concur. It's sad really.
Where to buy seat cowl for cbr?
Dude! at 7:20 the Kawasaki ZX-10R does not come with a Bi Directional quick shifter from the factory. Meaning, it does not do clutchless and throttleless downshifts, upshifts only! That's why your downshifts were rough, you need to use the clutch.
Dealers let you test ride?
Yes. For Media Demo Days...
@@CK_RIDES ahh ok.
I have a 2017 fireblade since new and it’s been the best bike overall i had so far. I’m glad you traded in, it doesn’t deserve you.
Hi there from Spain Again. As I told you in a previous video from your channel. THIS IS NOT A CBR 1000 RR 2023, ACTUALLY IS THE 2019 MODEL. I don´t know why or what is going on but I can asure you that the 2023 model is quite different, acctually in 2020 the changed the model, from the one you have there to a new one, with many many good diferences with the former one. Trust me, and search, and find out through internet that I´m right. here is one of the links where you can find what I´m trying to explain. Keep in mind that I´m posting my comment with all my respect and love for your channel. Buddy, you´re great. I´d love to have an answer from you. Greetins from Spain.
Bud the VIN plate on the bike from factory is 2023. ALL THE PAPERWORK is 2023. Spain has different bikes. The US has its own line up.
@@CK_RIDES yep
RR model hasn't been sold in Europe since 2019 but in US its still available.
