Excellent honest review. I have a similar beast and also commute on mine daily apart from in the snow or very icy conditions. Here in the uk we have too many greasy roundabouts etc so crash mushrooms/bungs are top priority. I've changed the screen on mine to a Puig double bubble save me getting my head blown off at higher speeds and the fact my gut is too large so i can't crouch properly! In Rain mode when the road condotions are very poor, i find you hardly need use the brakes when slowing down as the engine does it for you. The finish is very good by todays standards and reliabity has been seccond to none. Heated grips ( 2 stages) are a godsend and like you said cruise control is a must if you are doing a few miles. Safe riding
50k and still looking like a new one, well done 👍

Nice review. Love your colors. I use Waze in the US always. Huge fan.
Great review, im coming of a busa and could buy a new M package but am tempted to get one of there first cause I know it would be a wicked bike also
The whole video and you start start it at least once?? Did I miss it? 😳
that's one hella of run 50,000 km, , do you ride on touring? how is your back and wrist?
Wrist and back are fine. I ride almost everyday so I think I’m used to it👍 I’ve done a couple of 1000km days, they hurt!
@@dtlenny2437 hahaha i thought it would make a difference on s1k they say it's a lot more comfortable than other sportbike
I put 110,000km on a 2007 R1….. riding position is similar, but with cruise control everything changes !
@@dtlenny2437 haha wow that's one hella run! i just bought mt-10sp with 17,000 km and I hope to put 100k also in it .
Would you say an s1000r is more comfortable?
I haven’t ridden one, but I guess so. depending on personal preference
@@dtlenny2437 what would your next bike be?
Another S1000RR 😁😁
@@dtlenny2437 what do you mainly use your bike for and how many miles a year?
Mostly commuting to work, I do about 10,000 miles per year, getting closer to 60,000km now 😜
talk louder
Sorry, dodgy iPhone microphone 😞
