I swear BMW must owe most of their XR sales to you... 👊✊
2:22 more of this view point please... that's a real pleasure to watch throttle and brake control and body movement... 4:49 hehe )) good people around.
I tried to record previous sessions, but the GoPro kept shutting off. I had to format the card and then it started working, but I only got the last session.
Yes, loved the view with the throttle and brake trailing action. Would love to see a rider that had all the latest video that shows braking amount and you can see throttle and braking running up and trailing off in digital form leds as the rider transitions from the straights to the corners. I see you overtake a lot of riders in the braking zone. Thumbs up man! Keep them coming Cuban Rider, we love them!!! :-)
Yessssss more of this view please!
I appreciate that your XR is the same color/configuration as mine, so the POV camera gives me the satisfaction of being a skilled rider and as fast as you are without actually being either of those things. Thanks for that! 🙏
Me too. I can hardly touch the ground on mine this dudes doing it with his knee.
Notification Cuban posted a track vid......with the XR...... instant gratification. Cuban, you are the man. Awesome.
For me, this demonstrates it’s all about the rider. You’d pass them on their bikes, too. Your skill is obviously the key here. Lovely bike...but it’s all you.
soo true.. but his bike his 170 horse power . some of the other maybe they have around that too.. and sport turing bikes are the best ahahaha
exactly one year ago today I got my first bike, a triple black 2019 model (new) s1000xr. Never rode before, learned to ride on the internet, didn't have to take a test because my car drivers license predates 1985.
Today I have 27500 kms on the clock on my year round commute, in all kinds of weather.
That is how easy this bike is to ride.
I wil never be able to ride like cuban, but knowing the potential is there...
Congrats Peter, great choice. Some will say that this bike is too big for a beginner, but I think it works great with the technology that comes in it. The power is so linear and the electronics so good that it makes it very good to build your skills on it. And yes, very easy to ride compared to many other bikes. I bought my original XR after just 4 months of riding.
great footage! many thanks!...had many sports bikes before, including 2016 S1000 R, then bought a 2021 s1000 XR, what a machine, with the right suspension set up, it is practically untouchable !! you are correct! ... greetings from South Africa, Still Bay, Garden Route!
Thanks Regis
I think I'll call you "Super bike killer" from now on. Great video.
Fabulous to watch your trail braking technique!
That XR is 6 years old and you mercilessly cane it to within an inch of it's life week in and week out and it just comes back for more, what a superb bike.
I bought an XR as a result of your videos and it is the mutt's nuts.
Its really not. Engine is the same as a s1000rr and redline is dropped a few thousand RPM. Flogging this bike is like babying a S1000rr.
Thanks Mark!
I keep watching your track day and Tail Of The Dragon videos over and over. Awesome. My mate has just bought a brand new 2021 tri-colour S1000XR, I hope he gives me a ride of it, such great all-rounder bikes. Especially in the hands of a capable rider as you have proved. Great job mate 👍
Imagine if he riding the H2 SX, he probably manage to smoke a fighter jet lol.
😅
Damn you be moving this thing...it makes me love my bike even more. Way to represent the S1000XR family
Just curious, I’ve never owned a German bike but I do own German vehicles and they’re nothing but problems over 100k miles. In your experience, are German motorcycles the same once they start getting into the high mileage range?
@@danielrosas7550 a lot of owners do take them high mileage but me personally my like BMW bike had about 6k miles on it when I traded it in for my current bike 2019 S1000XR and I'll probably upgrade that bike before I hit 10k miles. I also get the extended all coverage warranty which last for 8 years.
Looks like all that preparation was well worth it!!! Really amazing videos and I like the added angle of front braking. you were soo fast at times you rubbed the stand while leaning into the corners...WOW. Keep it up - thank you!!!
Thanks Eric. I worried the entire week that something would not work out, either the bike with an issue or the track with weather, but it all worked perfect. So perfect in fact, that I ended up pushing myself too much and at the end of the day I was drained, wasn't sure if I was going to be able to load the bikes on the trailer with how tired I was.
Loved the looking back camera. Would be good to see more of that. Great riding and congrats on the time.
Thanks Scott
There's not a single dude in this planet i wanna race as bad i wanna race you
Awesome skills my guy good job
🤙
The POV view makes it look so easy, but that selfie angle really shows your effort to ride like this and less than 10% xr owners will be able to pull this off my friend 🤙🏽
It does seem a lot less hectic on the GoPro. In real life the heart rate gets going pretty good and you catch yourself breathing hard every once in a while.
What has ability got to do with it. Hes not saying the average rider could do this, hes showing how capable this bike can be in the right hands. Riding fast like this requires alot of effort on anybike. fact that hes tearing past superbikes whilst having to put in more effort still says alot.
Great video man - COTA is a phenominal track.
I've got an XR too and they are fantastic do-it-all bikes.
I've had many GS's and they're great bikes - swift, handle well, comfy and good brakes.
But no GS has ever made me go WOOOHOOO! like my XR always does.
They can't be compared. regards.
I just did
You know you are at the limit when you’re grinding the pegs. Great ride!
Thanks Brian
Technically past the limit because he has raised and shorter foot pegs lol.
Grinding peg feelers is normal on track, Its nowhere near the limit.
@@stavencapp he doesn't have feelers on his RAISED pegs
So much respect for crushing it on a adv. Not my style but I get it. Those type of bikes will be the next wave of interest after the naked bikes settle down
Always amazing. You ride like a pro. Congrats
Not quite a pro, but getting quicker 😉
Fantastic Rider, indeed... I have seen videos of this motorbike in Off road tests and it's awesome!!
My next buy decision is this monster and beauty bike...
Thanks for all your incredible videos.....
BMW should give you a comisión......
Thanks. I'm still waiting for the check 😄
Cuban for XR ambassador! Wringing its neck as usual, love it! 😉
Agreed! Someone needs to reach out to BMW Motorrad USA already!!
Dicen que no es la moto... es el piloto, pero cuando se juntan ambos este es el resultado, el video es espectacular! Saludos mi hermano, sin duda la mejor moto!
Gracias Armando. Saludos.
Note to self: Must try harder! You're a hell of a rider - calm, relaxed and lovin it. You made the other riders look like learners haha. Great video!! Thanx
Thanks Paul.
Cuban inspired me to buy my 2020 XR, and I think I've seen all your videos. Since you rode with Max Wrist once or twice, I'll look for you on here in sunny SoCal ... :-)
Looking forward to go back when it gets cold in TX. 😉
Is there videos of cuban riding with max wrist?
Awesome Cuban! Thats how its done on an S1000XR! Great job brother!
Thanks Glenn!
Man you pumped me up. Loading XR on trailer watching you blast the XR. You made those power cup tires work. Cool video of looking back showing body position. Awesome video.
My bp is not the most picturesque, I call it energy-conservation mode. 😜
@@CubanRider I'm on high conservation mode. Makes you look GP mode
That's a great way to use a S1000XR! Have to take mine to the track asap. Cool recordings and especially the angle after 2:22
Only come across your videos last night and been hooked! Great riding and your skill on how you handle that big machine around the track is unreal bud ✌️
Also great to see how the cup 2's are performing as that's my next tyre of choice so your feedback would be greatly appreciated
Awesome video Cuban! I'll be hitting the track with my XR next month. Cant wait.
Looking forward to watch that video man. 🤙
You made my day! Keep going to inspire us!!!
thanks for the trail braking shot! owesome riding! keep safe!
Man, you ride the hell out of that machine 👏
uff que buen video bro.. chulada de moto y chulada de llantas,, yo tengo las michelin road 5, que son el modelo de calle de las tuyas,, ya me cuentas cuanto te duraron las tuyas a ver si se las pongo a mi moto.
deberias hacer un review de tus llantas.
saludos.
Gracias Pietro. No creo que duren mucho, pero me las gozé 😄
Your cornering is phenomenal and excellent skills,awesome bike 👌
I love your videos so much. If I could ride 50% as well as you I would be so happy! Keep bringing the videos please.
Respect man. Great riding. What a bike!
😂😂😂 this is hilarious ! And in the best way! Love it. Dude was in full tuck on the Kawi and u rode by him sitting totally upright 😂😂😂
Grind those pegs! Sounds great getting 8 session's. Wish we had tracks like that up here!!
This track is unreal man, so good! Have to make it justice and go even quicker. 😉
Just bought a 2016 model one of these ordered a thumb brake for it! Be interesting to see how quick a can get it! Here in scotland 😎
This is the best video of BMW S1000XR on youtube! Damn you well know to how ride.
Also,you installed Akrapović headers right so have you installed other exhaust or the stock one?
I've made the same experience with my '17 XR nd the tighter the Track the more the SS are chanceless
HAHHAHAH passing that guy on the straight on a ZX-6 who was absolutely pancaked on the tank. Priceless.
Que pista tan divina... Y ese misil cometa rojo!!!! Bárbaro...!!!
Saludos Terry.
@@CubanRider 😃🤙🤙🤙🤙
Nice one! That accolade may now be for the new Tuono V4 standard version. Let’s see.
The Tuono will smoke the S1000XR at a track, but it's also a supernaked, doesn't really classify as sport touring.
Hey bud. Check out the new standard version Tuono. This years model has gone more sport touring. Has a larger pax rear seat, grab bars, lower rear pegs, bar risers and larger front screen. Looks on par to an XR. The Factory version stays as Supernaked. Please try and get your hands on one 👍
Nicht nur das Motorrad muss gut sein, auch der Fahrer ! thump up
Perfect front fork performance 👌
Esa XR es un monstruo en el circuito, y tú un pedazo de piloto! Saludos desde España
Gracias, saludos.
I wanted to give you two thumbs up likes👍👍 Straights are there just to link corners together, I reckon that should be your motto !
Thanks Nick
XR in its natural habitat 😎
Good riding mate , love and respect from 🇬🇧
Do you like those levers? What are they? Did you ever have the grabby clutch that some complain about on this bike? Keep the videos coming!
That was awesome. Thanks for sharing!
Respect!!!
My XR is in the shop for full Akro and RapidBike....excited to get it back and pretend to ride this smooth. 👍
I think you're going to be very happy 💪
@@CubanRider got the XR back with the RapidBike and full Akro…..soooo much smoother throttle and the sound…..oh my. Anyone with an XR reading this….get the full Akro and a fuel management system. It takes the XR to a new level.
Grande cuban! Una bestia el xr, saludos
Saludos Lucas.
Amazing! Great riding Sir!
Thanks Mark. 🤙
How do you compare XR's quick shifter vs Aprilia's one?
I see a lot of trail braking - amazing work brother! Please do more of that front facing camera, so we can see actual work behind those forks 😄
The 2021's RSV4 quickshifter was flawless, very smooth. The XR's QS is also very good, but I've caught myself rushing it a few times and the gears haven't gone in, operator error, really.
I'm glad you took the mirrors off
Someone: Is there a huge reason to buy BMW S1000XR?
Me: Huge reason?! Go and watch Cuban Rider on UA-cam. There is no way you ain't gonna buy S1KXR after watching him slay every single rider in the circuit.
😉
Competencia de la BMW s100xr?? Can u Say me pls??
Man, is this still your original XR? Thats a wicked machine. Not sure i would fit well at 6'2" but might have to try one (used).
You'd be right at home. This is my second one, got a deal too good to pass and traded my original with 35k+ miles.
You should put the RR cams support mods into the XR there is a s1000r in uk which has them running 200bhp and 120nm 🏍💨💨
Keep up the quality videos buddy!
That'd be sick! Maybe next winter's project.
This dude IS AMAZING!
Braking deep bro awesome to watch
You r whipping those power ranger powers into shape 😂😂
haha adventure bike kicking ass but its always the pilot good jop man
Awesome as always!
Thanks man
Boa noite video top tenho uma XR 2020 sou um fã seu pilota muito parabéns , me responde uma coisa essa bolha que vc usa é MRA se for pode me dizer se é boa estou querendo colocar uma na minha moto , aguardo uma resposta blz.✊✊
Sim, um MRA. É muito bom, altamente recomendado.
Obrigado ✊✊
Wow! You hurt a lot of feelings on that ride. I bet there were lots of WTF's when you blew past!
Gotta watch out next track day, some Ducati owners might sabotage my bike. 😅
Very nice and smooth driving, the rearsets are stock, touching the road?
I raised them up with adapters, but not enough it seems.
You trail brake quite deep in to the corner almost to the apex, then throttle out. Impressively minimal neutral time!
Thanks, and very good observation. That was the goal for this track day, try to eliminate neutral time whenever possible.
@@CubanRider Thank you, I'm a new track rider, and this is one area my coaches have been helping me with. Looking forward to seeing more of this angle in your future vids!
@@saltyprocrastinator that's awesome, looks like you're getting quality coaching. 🤙
Hypnotic your videos love it smoking sukkas on sports bikes
Hola Cuban, veo tus videos desde hace tiempo y en 2019 pusiste los protectores de radiador ¿algún problema con la temperatura en días de calor? ¿A que temperatura deja de funcionarte el ventilador? Aparcada en el garaje no baja de 96º y me preocupa.
Dependiendo de la temperatura afuera, 96 celcius no esta mal. El protector de radiador no tiene efecto, todo funciona normal. Si no me equivoco el ventilador prende a los 107 grados.
oh man, the poor Ducatisti, I dont know how their egos took it seeing a sport tourer pass them LOL
just had to watch this to remind myself why i’m upgrading my 2019 gs for one of these 🤤
Have you done it yet?? Would love to know the difference! Obviously the gs is a much heavier bike bit wonder how that compares when out on a trip touring on the s1000xr
The GS is a total beast in its class, i dont think its comparable. But yeah, Cuban knows how ride his bike, dunno if he would be that fast on a GS
Grandes vueltas !! Que manera de disfrutar de la xr, compensa el esfuerzo de preparar la moto para el circuito. La moto pide ya un amortiguador mejor de dirección con ese nivel de pilotaje. Creo que la ktm que tienes no podría hacer esos tiempos. Las pastillas de freno EBC son baratas y frenan genial, yo las montaba para circuito en una CBR hace ya más de 15 años. Llevas muelles cambiados en la horquilla delantera?
Nada, la suspension toda de fabrica. Yo creo que todavia le puedo sacar un poco más de tiempo, por ahora es la tuerca detrás del timón la que necesita ajuste, la moto de por sí es una bestia.
@@CubanRider pues vas de miedo con ella. No sabía que se podía ajustar el amortiguador de dirección.
You Should be called THANOS blatant disregard for mortal humans 😂😂
Nice riding. I have a 17 s1000r and there is a guy who has done the same track days as me who has an 18 xr - one of these dudes a bit older than me (I am 52) who has been riding for ever, and he leaves me (not hard) but most other guys behind. Secret is technique, which he has and you have. Nice throttle and brake control as well as head and body position. Quick question - SpT1200RS v XR?
Dude, you seriously ride the ass out of that bike! Love it 👌
Thanks Dave 👍
Nice riding my brother !!
Thanks Joe
Awesome 🏍🤩👍
Nice trail braking. You should check out Naska, he has a video of how to get back on the gas as fast as poss after trail braking to avoid dead time.
Yeah I follow Naska's videos, good stuff for sure.
Wow haha yes he’s very good at making exciting videos. Love your riding man. No criticism at all from me.
Awesom rider 🔝 which tyres are you using?
You are awesome !
I have a question. I got 2022 xr. And top speed is not enough. Did you change the rear or front sprocket? Could you give us info ?
This bike and the Ducati multistrada V4S 👌🏾
I'd like to try the new Multi, it should be a good one.
@@CubanRider i think the Multi V4s Pike Peak edition is going to be awesome. It's not out yet. 17 inch wheels is what missing on the current multi v4s.
Thats not an adventure bike. Damn those leans 👌🏻🔥
Qué manera de ir en moto y cómo va esa xr madre mía! Me podrías decir por curiosidad que gomas llevas?
Gracias Pepe. Son Michelin Power Cup 2, pegan duro.
@@CubanRider increíble
Awesome!
Amazing ... bravo bravo, can you tell me what tyres did you have? Anyway, you rode it like a pro ( maybe you are ) !
Thanks Mirko. Tires and pressures in the description. 👍
Multistrada v4 and 1290gt are more powerfull , but on the track?
If you want to talk about straight line fast, the king of the sport tourers is the H2 SX, but that one will not hold a candle to the XR at the track either.
You and that one bike jumping the S’s 😂
Wait until you see the bloopers on this one. 😜
Nissin??😱 I thought the Xr had brembo break pump
Cuban...been communicating with you occasionally for 4 years now through various mediums to include the defunct USA S1000XR forum. I don't FB, so we haven't spoken in a while.
I started with a 2016, traded to a 2019 year ago. Walked in local BMW store last month to pick up another scooter of mine from service and saw a new G2 2021 XR marked down $3K, so I bought it. Are you planning on getting the G2 anytime soon? Or, are you happy with your current G1. Personally, I think my 2016 was the best XR I've owned, but still learning the G2 and it's quirks.
Saw this segment was shot at COTA. Please ping me if you ever come back in town. I'll take you to lunch as payback for all the help you've given me in the last 5 years.

@Cuban Driver
Hi cuban driver i got a 2019 s1000xr Hp style .
The bike is shaking a lot above 180km/hour.
I dont dare to ride harder then 220 , it's shaking the whole bike so hard .
U have any tips what it could be ???
Got new tires and 13k km total .
Man I wish I could ride like that!
Love it!!
You know how to use the lap timer ? Lol what time on sport touring rubber do you think ?
I wouldn't risk it on sport touring tires, probably a good 10 seconds slower. The lap timer gets activated with the bright light flashing switch, my buddy with the other XR showed me how to do it at the track.
Hey Cuban. I have a 2016 bmw s1000xr and I noticed at over 120mph it starts to wiggle a bit. What can I do to help prevent a wobble at higher speeds? I almost wonder if I'm not leaning over the tank enough. Any tips would be greatly appreciated. Thank you love watching your videos.
Almost the perfect motorcycle, sadly to much handlebar vibrations for long touring, I heard on the 2020 model that what fixed...
