"DON'T BUY THIS BIKE! It's a widow maker"
Now... I'm gonna do a wheelie! 🤣
widow maker is 1st gen zx10r.. 2004 zx10r
@@barrymccociner3154 thought it was those 2 stroke Kawasaki's, that 700cc 2 stroke....
Everyone buy this BIKES! Cops can't catch ya, EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@@barrymccociner3154 agreed 👍🏿
Hell ya ninja zx10r
Every time I throw my leg over my aprilia RSV4 RF I know she could kill me.
I wouldn't have it any other way.
same with my rebel 250 love it
Same with my Grom and my Honda Mini Trail 50 to. I took the muffler off it... and now it sounds like a GSXR 1000 and it's so much faster I can do a burnout with a front wheel now
Well said
Bro honda cbr 1000..are slow compare to kawi or suzuki...an honda are fragile..
When I first bought my busa, and started racing it at the track I put a piece of masking tape over the word Hayabusa on the top triple clamp with the words " It will kill you" ust to keep myself in check.
I started off on Ninja 300 and rode it for over 2 years before I tried a friends 1000 one day... Lets just say, I scared myself when I shifted at 51 mph into 2nd gear and let the clutch out a little too hard. A 1000 is an amusement park ride on 2 wheels.
You ended up buying a 1000- 1 year later?
Ride that 250 out a few more years.
Exactly where the saying
Drop a gear and disappear come from 😁
I had a old Kawasaki 454 ltd I was super surprised I can get it over 120 leaning down between the bars. The Cc's fooled me. And then a I rode areal good friends ZX9 thinking it was a 96. I came back shaking like I was about to have an anxiety attack!🤣 And that's nothing to what they have out these days! Adrenaline machines!
@@johnsheetz6639 😂 I'd had dirtbikes from a young age, had sat what a test when doing lessons so I could sit my test on a 500cc, basically if I hadn't I'd have been on a 125 until I sat another test to give me over 500.
First bike I picked up was my gsxr 600.
Pulled out my drive, bus had stopped and some idiot come round him on the wrong side of the road, as I'd pulled out. Gave it a little bit of throttle to get round him. Ok slightly more throttle than I'd expected.
Back of the bike skipped round, no problem I'd been used to the dirt bike, so glad I had black leathers on, bid the brown skid quite well 🤣.
The tail of the bike started wobbling, got a little tank slap then my ass started wobbling.
Totally different animals. Absolutely nothing similar off road to what the sports can do at a little twist of the wrist. Lesson learned, sort of. I then got a gsxr 1000 and hayabusa after.
Not sure I'll ever learn my lesson 😁
I weigh 60-65 kilos, On the CBR 1000 i am just the keyhanger.
Harley Dudes that brag about how fast their bikes are don't know what speed is.
I mean 600s will happily blow past all of them...
They end up mad and full of excuses like my father's stage 2 street glide going backwards to my 600rr.
@@chrisreed1538 I would love to hear those excuses. Harley guys typically get all butt hurt when their pathetically inadequate machines get shut down in every performance category.
You've got less miles, I've got stuff in my bags, it's not running right, it won't be like that next year. He's already got cams, full exhaust, intake and tuner. Often on octane booster....what more you gonna throw at it?
Bet that sumbitch makes lots of loud proud all American noise! Beat that Tojo!
I have a 2012 version of this blade and I LOVE IT!!! I’m 52 with 45 years experience, this bike is not for rookies or the faint hearted. It’s insanely fast and addictive. Love the power. You would never be disappointed. We have some fantastic roads here in Scotland that can really get the best out of it. Ultra reliable too.
How do you find the comfort Dave I had the 2004 cbr1000rr and found it uncomfortable for longer rides! Hoping this shape was improved in the comfort stakes
@@superscalesy8240 Honda gel seat. Known as a ‘touring’ seat not cheap unless u go used. Still not the best comfort but an improvement
man thank you for dropping your age, ive been torn at my age wanting a rocket.
average lifespan for bikers 30 how are u still alive lol, all jokes aside probably because of safe traffic in your country i think major factors are cars and people in traffic causing crashes and deaths
@@emreberktandogan2733 not really though, just many people who ride motorcycles are in their 30s, so most fatalities are in that range aswell
You really put it in perspective when you said it’s triple digits and still popping a wheelie. That is amazing when you think about it like that.
My buddy had one of these and I went from my k4 gsxr1000 to his, and man it felt like I hopped on a supermodel. Coming out of a curve with one wheel in the air and you don’t even realize it.
2008 CBR 1000rr is my favorite of all time. This bike was best in its class of that year. Honestly it’s the simplicity of the bike that makes it so desirable. The old school controls. It’s all bike. No gimmick. Absolutely fast. The best bike Honda has made. Anyone that drives this bike ends up speechless. That’s how how smooth and fast this bike is.
I was never a Honda guy but I ended up buying a 2008 and it changed my mind
I had an ‘08. Great bike. It came with the exact same 2 Brothers exhaust. I swapped it out for a Yoshimura R77 and it felt like I got +10hp at every RPM.
I thought the 08 drinks oil
I HAVE A 2008 IN PEARL YELLOW. I love it so much.
08's I thought had weaker steering dampers too. You never see a 04-07 cbr1000rr have a tank slapper
All 1000s are absolute beasts and should be treated as such I ride a 2009 R 1 amd that thing has so much torque that it rips the arms off
treat these bikes with respect and they will be a hoon to.ride abuse them and be ready to meet your maker
Agreed. I have a 2015 R1M with link pipe, Woolich Race Tools tune from Peter Stevens and I know, with absolute certainty, that if to ride it at anything more than 50% on the road, you will suffer severe consequences.
However, when shuttling it back from Melbourne to Brisbane, via really long scenic route over 3,400km, so watching speed in a bit of a bike/car convoy, it did return 20km/l or about 60mpg.
Now people may say these bikes are not for economy, and I agree. But that’s why there are race tracks like Phillip Island.
Hey if you're still around (& if I even manage to catch your reply), a mechanical steering dampener is MUCH better than what this RR has right - at least in terms of wear?! Don't know what kind of system they've put in (and I'll look it up after), but it's gotta be something that has to be serviced and such... I imagine it's a potential pain? o.0
@@user-jh6kx1fw9h hello! I believe it is less wear than a more mechanical damper. Though I've heard they are much better; The factory HESD on my 05 Fireblade is still in good working condition. I had an earlier model before then with a Scott's performance damper that was only a couple years old, and it ended up needing service after its 3rd year on the bike. Never got to feel what it did for myself before I sold that one.
@@antonyborlase3965 it's about the aerodynamics, they are more efficient than sport touring bike from aero POV
but i can't say much about mechanical efficiency
they are not comfortable to ride for too long tho
Allah khair kaare
any Japanese faired 4 cylinder liquid cooled bike above 100hp is a widow maker potential
If you're an inexperienced, irresponsible fool, certainly. If you know your stuff then they are precision tools in the right hands.
@@GrtSatan agreed.
Any wheel chair thrown down in the building stairs is a widow maker too.
Why does it have to be faired? My naked has a liquid cooled 4 cylinder and170 hp
@@Rob_Ferreira damn right check out the 2020 ktm 1290 super duke r. The GOAT of hyper nakeds with 180hp 103lb ft of torque
In '08, the goal for Honda, was to win a long awaited title again. They wanted the 1000 to basically handle like a 600.
I have the discipline to not go past my limits. I could own a bike like this, yet ride somewhat normal. This comes with age, I am 47 now an I recognize my body isn't what it use to be.
Your body isn't that much different, it's a more cautious state of mind you now have.
My last bike GSXR1000 because of a white van driver, who tried to kill me, I was 65yr still riding hard, 8 sets of tires back and front, done in 18’000 miles.
Now I am left in chronic pain, nothing to do with the power, speed,or my age or abilities. Because of idiot stupidity van driver, month induced coma , two steel rods and plate screws, which has decided to break, screws coming out. Like a horror story , I’ve been trying to figure out, how much longer, before I choose to use the, get out of jail card, I was robbed of my life, my son was also sort of robbed, him on his R1M and me my GSXR used to entertain, ourselves and others. I could write a story about, my age less approach of life, always being told, how old you have to be, for to do things, and once again being over, a age where you can’t. My only real prediction I got close to, when I was a teenager, I was saying that I could,not wait for the day when I could,ride a motorcycle at about 200 miles an hour,on the roads.
Well I was bloody close, and thrilled, a bit of fear ,on many occasions,185mph , I would always have to touch the,160 mph ,just to make sure that my bike was running properly, and raining didn’t stop me. The, ( hopefully) break gap , was a dam white van man. Or am I just dreaming, while I walk through the nightmares, am I the right AGE AGAIN for the Entire ENDING.
This bike is definitely for an experienced rider...not a newbie.
same goes to any 1000cc sport bike
Pedro Rezende anyone can ride a newer liter bike with all those rider aids they put on them now.
Uncle Scam not everyone can do that. Don’t be stupid. Plus your probably leaving something out of this story.
@Uncle Scam good for you. I hope you stay alive but I still would not recommend people doing that. Is harder to learn on a bigger bike and it takes longer
CBR's have always been known as the most user friendly bikes compared to all other Japanese 1000cc SS. Its been this way since 1992, when the 1st CBR 900 came out, compared to GSXR 1100, Yamaha YZF 1000, Kawasaki ZX9R of that era.
I went from a GSX-R600 to the CBR1000RR and couldn't believe it was much easier to ride and really flattered my riding, like I'd been riding it since day one.
It has actually been said said/ claimed that Hondas have a more natural, familiar feel about them than other makes. This is what you might be experiencing with easier to ride feeling of your 1000 cc Honda
Hey me too… and thought the same thing
What can you tell me about VIBRATIONS from the engine? I heard they are much more disturbing than in her little Sister CBR 600....anybody knows?..
@@pabloperez4063 I've also had the CBR600RR and the only difference I found was when you start the 1000 it's obvious that the starter motor's turning over a bigger engine but I found it just as quiet and smooth as the 600.
Yonniboy I want a bike could you please give me one.
“Don’t buy this bike”
“I love this bike”
“It’s so fast and lighter than my track bike”
“If you get this bike, awesome”

Sales tactic. Used with Lotuses, exotics, etc. "oh you don't want this, it's TOO fast, to Spartan, too pure, too harsh and mean and nasty and badass..."

He's saying, Buty It At Your Own Life Risk..... Basically in a nut shell, This Bike Will Kill You if you don't know what you're doing....
@@MzIrresistable38 Exactly I had a GSXR 600 came out of an island put the gas down too early and the bike fishtailed but luckily the SC kicked in and helped straighten me out lol bikes like the CBR1000 won’t help you and yes people will be dead! I’m glad the guy in the video gave some warning.
I’ve got a 500 CBR with 49 hp and it’s fast enough for me. I can’t imagine how these machines must go. Trouble with bikes like this is because their so quick there’s always the temptation to pull that throttle back and see what it can do, which is exactly why I stick with CBR 500. I don’t like bikes that get nicknamed widow makers😱
A crazy rider on a CBR500 can still set pulses racing on the road or track, there is a CB500 race series here in the UK and I've been dusted up by the odd one on a trackday while on my CBR600F2 on a trackday. I ran the F2 without a fairing as it handles better and is faster as top speed doesn't get high enough on a track to need one.
I will say as I worked up the cc's as a beginner the step from a GS500E to an FZR600 was as big as going from an AR125 to an RG250 after passing my test. The 500 and 600 didn't handle anywhere near as good as that RG due to the massive weight increases and cheap suspension which made them harder to ride. Going from the FZR600 to an R6 was easy as the R6 was modern and well equipped as well as lighter. Later going from the R6 and Hornet 900 I had to a ZX12R (modded and unrestricted) was the next major step, after that everything was meh speed wise, even my ZX10R.
My first go on a Blade in 1996 was when I hadn't ridden anything faster than that 110mph RG250 so was a bit crazy, I still took it too 140mph in the dark on a country road when an Escort RS Turbo had the gaul to try and overtake. I rode another early Blade later when I had the R6 and it seemed cumbersome, big, and not really that fast. Once you get used to a modern sports 600 nothing will seem that intimidating after. When I say used to a 600 I mean able to ride it at 10 tenths with the back wheel skipping into every corner, the bars shaking all the way through and the front wheel lifting on any bumps on exit. At least 2 of those things used to happen on the GS500 and can happen on the 500 CBR. That 500 should be hitting 60 in about 5 seconds from a standing start. I could rolling stoppie the GS500 with the right tyre fitted on the front, it was also really easy to control when doing rolling burnouts being a twin. I haven't ridden for a few years but I'm tempted to get a cheap 500 just for the crack or an ER6 or SV650 which are inbetween a 500 and proper sports 600.
Sometimes weight can be nice. A stock older hayabusa while mental is actually suoer comfy handles well and isn't twitchy on the throttle that said they build speed fast as all hell and will literally launch in a straight line.
I think you'll like cbr650r, i feel it's got enough power for doing it all
@@marcustaylor670 I picked up a CBR300r for my first sports bike. It’s perfect for learning techniques, I would love to upgrade to a 500 or older 600rr in the future. But I’m content at the moment
I went from a cbr250 to a Yamaha xsr900 within 4 months. Don’t Jump to a 1000 super sport

I had a 2010 cbr1000rr and now a 16 r1, I miss how basic it was jump on it and go no modes no flashy electrics. Defiantly one of the best thous to date
You have to respect the power and speed. 53 here. My first car was a bike.....
I rode a moped for a couple years as a teen, but my first bike in my early 20s was a modded '03 R1 Raven. Beautiful bike BTW. Everyone told me it was way too much bike for a "starter bike", and I was going to get myself killed. Fact of the matter is , it doesn't matter what size bike you have, it comes down to common sense as a rider. Don't get me wrong, I rode the bike fast sometimes, but tried to do it in the most sensible situations. I also was okay knowing that I wasn't experienced enough to ride wheelies down the road, so I didn't even try. I also never cornered the bike hard on the street, and was very cautious in blind corners.
Couple years later, so many of the guys that told me I'd kill myself with an R1 were the ones riding around with zip-ties holding their bikes together, while mine still looked like it rolled off the showroom floor. The point is, even 600s will get you hurt if you ride stupid. Maybe it's because I started on a liter bike, but I never bought the premise that they were any more dangerous to inexperienced riders than a 600 is.
I raced motocross all my life I’m looking to getting a xsr900 I am almost certain if I got a 650 or 700 naked street bike I would regret not getting what I really wanted within a month, once you get off the 650 you will still have to relearn the 600rr or 1000rr the same way. If you never been on any type of bike in your life I get not doing that but someone who raced motocross for 15 years basically professionally should have no problem with any bike
Same I went from a z125 to this 08 CBR 1000 I’ve had it for a year no problems, just respect the power and everything is fine 😁
I bought one of these for my first bike, I love it
I should have skipped the stupid 600 advice, I’m on my 2nd 1000RR. The low end torque is easier to ride then always have if to keep a 600 above 6k. Dumbest advice I should have never listened to.
@@JAMESWUERTELE how ironic
I agree totally. I bought a brand new 2000 Hayabusa for my first bike. I honestly think it's fine to buy a fast bike first as long as you respect it. Riding a 600 for a year or 2 in no way can prepare you for a liter bike or larger. Without a healthy respect for the machine any bike will allow you to kill yourself. Overall you'll save money by buying what you want to begin with. I've had many bikes since but I'll never part with my Busa. It's never been down and runs better than the day I hauled it nervously home, lol.
@@boduke9428 I don't have a bike but I would love a busa, I'm very responsible and everything but all it takes is an accidental yeet on the throttle and I'm dead, so maybe I'll get a cruiser (honda shadow) cuz their cheap and reliable and can learn with it. Then if I can ill get a busa
@@djpollo2474 I promise there is no grenade pin or bomb fuse ignition attached to the throttle, lol. It can be twisted freely without instant death. My point was that any bike is equally dangerous for beginners. The actual mechanics of riding are the same. I think big heavy cruisers are more dangerous to learn on. The ginormous weight is harder to manage moving slowly and at speed. Lean angle is much less forgiving and much slower and harder to correct. Everyone ride what they want. I still wholeheartedly agree with OP that small bikes are a waste of money when bought solely to learn on. I promise you that riding a cruiser will no way prepare you for a Busa. While it's not actually the hand of God reaching down giving you a shove in the rump when you twist the throttle to the stop it sure feels like it. Also newer sport bikes have multiple map settings that could easily be used while learning if an accidental throttle twist is your fear.
I have a 2007 cbr1000rr repsol and I suffer from the left hand crack syndrome so far I've topped out at 194mph and there is plenty left to play with an absolute hyper drive of a bike. A mate asked what its like to ride and the only comparison I could come up with us its like the millennium falcon on wheels infinite acceleration awesome amazing bike and definitely gonna kill me with a smile on my face, may I ride in peace ✌
I really like the exhaust under the tail in the 600 rr. But the 1000' tail looks really sleek.
Exhaust under the tail is great until it's 105 degrees.
There is a magical element and sound to the refine, simple, and yet extremely sophisticated system Honda has. I'll never forget the sound of the bike I had which was a 600rr back around 2008 before I moved to Asia. These things are INSANE. The most scary thing too is not only the speed, but how extremely responsive the brakes are, they will EFFORTLESSLY try to buck you off if you panic stoppie. They are so light and efficient, they practically want to fly out from under you. Smooth as silk and yet a raw torque as you'd expect out of a bike twice its size "feeling wise in the body, yet not irritating."
Yessir. This is why I won't buy another sport bike... I cannot stay off the gas. Its intoxicating, empowering, exhilarating and better than the best sex ever. Nothing like speed - lots of it on tap and WFO.
@Peter Aremone lol I was gonna say clearly he has no understanding of "best sex"
@@alexventrov6826 I always tell people riding a motorcycle is only second to sex.
Dad fun but not better than sex not ever
Sex is great, but loses its appeal for awhile after you do it. You can do a pull on a sportbike over and over again and it never loses its touch. Until youre decapitated.
Your either doing it wrong or with the wrong person.😂😂😂
Only reason Harley guys think Harleys are fast is because once you're over a 100 they feel like you're in imminent danger. Don't get me wrong I like harleys, owned many.
Yeah. I got a 2007 and rode my boys 2009 a few months later. Instantly regretted my decision lol. Not regretted it, but it’s so much more confidence inspiring. That feeling can definitely get you in trouble sometimes
I just bought the same exact and I love it,had a 2009 yamaha r1 for 3 years and this bike feel so much lighter and has faster acceleration,Honda did a great job with this model 💪🏾

In same situation Minecraft and couldn’t agree more…and I try to prove it on a regular basis…as I knee drag through the canyons to PCH/Malibu on a ‘11 Repsol Ed. 600RR. Interested to see (will in next couple days) how the ‘03 954RR compares. Should be interesting at the very least. 😂
i dont know if i TOTALLY agree that these bikes are inherently dangerous. my first bike was a 600 bandit. it was dangerously under powered. the thing i love most about my cbr1k is i can get out of the way of anything instantly.
Are you serious about that? I would say a bandit 600 is not underpowered by any means . It is still a lot faster than most cars on the road.
Just subscribed , great video , I ride a CBR 1000 F nickname the hurricane, is this a close similarity in power to the rr you ride in this video, ? I think I may keep this one for love sake ,what do you think please, 🤔

The Honda's are my favorite liter bike. I bought my first in 2005. A CBR 954RR. It felt crazy light compared to my Busa with almost the roll on in 6th gear. The next gen when it first went 1000 wasn't as good in my opinion but has only got better since.
2004’s are the best looking. They just had weak stators from the factory
954 was a bad ass bike loved mine
I totally agree with your learning philosophy. And it ties in with your small bike (Hyosung) videos. Bike history - I started out reasonable with a 2004 DL650 (fun bike to pop wheelies on in parking lots, not a lot of oomph), a 2006 Ninja 650 (black/silver), a 2007 Ducati ST3 (eh, comfy highway bike), a 2006 Honda Interceptor (black with factory Givi side cases - really my favorite bike so far), next to a 2011 Ninja 1000... After owning the Ninja for a couple years I sold it - because by that time I had pulled so much shit on that bike and got away with it that I figured pushing and pushing is just gonna kill me... I have a 1986 Yamaha SRX600. Had it for 5 years so far, 45,000 miles I put on it and nothing but smiles and spanking gears all day. Now, this old tech. Crap suspension, easy/predictable power, good 5-speed. It is an urban assault vehicle weighing in at 278lbs wet! The Hyosung you talk about have better suspension, fueling, power, etc. As it's getting hard to get parts for my SRX, not that it needs any, I might retire it and get one of those Hyosung 250's... I too love rare bikes and you have not seen a V-twin 250 sport bike ever, but Yamaha did have the cruiser 250 way back in the form of the Virago 250. V-twins sound really good piped! So someday you may see me in your showroom sitting on a Hyosung to see how it feels. Meantime I traded a 2019 MT-07 (12,000 miles on it) for a 2011 Ninja 1000 (15,000 miles on it as was my first one when I sold it) - even trade! I have much more confidence on it now than I did because I was able to relax on the smaller bikes and learn with more comprehension this time around. ----- You might drop Hyosung a hint to make a 250 V-twin Cafe bike. It would fly out the doors at their prices.
hey, what do you use to record the video & audio while test driving the bike. Thanks!
Thank you for the word of wisdom 🙏
I never understand when ppl say that sport bikes/supersports are "missing" or "lacking" gear indicators... like bro, you should know what gear your in at all times.
The Gear indicator is set to one , the letter D, D for Die !

I plan on having one of these next to my Harley someday. Thanks for this video! Great job bro!
I had a Kawasaki ZX14 Ninga for 6 years and lived to tell the tale. Fastest stock bike in the world in 2006. Sold it because I was either going to lose my driver's license or lose my life. But man what fun it was..

First bike...1998 CBR 900RR. 11.2@122 on a slipping clutch 1st time ever on a bike in the 1/4. $3200 in 2012 with 20k on it. 100% reliable. Has a trunk, too. Also had an 82 CB650. Loved that bike.

I had the cbr 1000 rr 2007 and it has an insane amount of power and is fun to ride but it is also rather uncomfortable after a short time in the saddle and you can't ride it within the legal limits and not feel like you've gone for a proper ride. I eventually sold it and got an evo harley now I get satisfaction and comfort .I should also mention that I just turned 52 years of age .
Definitely too easy to speed on the fireblade and doesn’t feel as fun if you’re not😂
Amen bro. Loving the content. New rider here, awesome channel.
Enjoyed the vid and the scripture. Beautiful bike 👍 thx for sharing
Anybody remember when the Yammie RD500 was released with number plates saying "Litre Eater"? Very quickly being returned by their petrified owners displaying classic symptoms of PTSD...85 bhp...how times have changed!
Everything's usually fine long as you say within your limits of your riding skill and don't go over the top just have respect for your ride too I loved my 2002 Honda cbr954rr I had was a ultimate Beast then I sold it had over 67,000 miles tho 😇✌
Hey buddy. Love the cbr series . I have a 954rr. Would you consider doing a review on that one. Thanks VICTORIA
I never watched this video because I thought you were talking trash about this bike… but this bike is a hell of a beauty and makes so much fun. It’s so fast and I’m still scared to pull full trottle even on track.
Great review - as always !! Love the exhaust on that CBR !
This bike well tuned 12 years later can still keep up with the newer bikes. Now that two brothers exhaust has to go tho! Maybe an M4 Full System or an SC Project 😯
I had one of these for 4 seasons. Only thing I changed was an öhlins ttx36 which proved to be great on a couplenof track days.Loved it a lot, but eventually sold it when got married..
There's a 2 lane state highway in my area (Northeast Tennessee) that is an awesome motorcycle road. Nice smooth pavement and TONS of curves. I used to ride with a guy that had one of these (2009 model) and he grew up riding dirt bikes. He was used to riding very "loose". I remember following him and he would lay black marks through and coming out of some very high speed curves at ~90 MPH. When he would come out of the curve and get traction he would go straight into a wheelie at those speeds like it was nothing. I always loved the looks of that generation CBR1000RR.
Need to do a review on 4th or 5th gen zx10r
I love that Bible verse
I watched your review on the Hyosung and am thinking about getting one. My question is if all three in that class were with in a few hundred bucks is the r3 the better of them?
Yes, the R3 is the best of them. It just comes down to quality. My Hyosung 250R had done 17,000kms and it felt beaten and worn out. An r3 will still have 20,000 more kms in it until the valve clearance. Don’t buy a Hyosung.
Great video. The 1997 fireblade had the best power to wieght ratio of any bike of the times. Still might be. I also decided to start a you tube channel. Thank u for all the information u provide us.
Yes sir! I had 4 of them...'92,'94,96(X2) cbr 900rr fireblade sc33 for live🙏🙏🙏🙏
I loved mine, bought it used for 6500 for its mid range torque. It would scream up top like my Hayabusa but huge improvements in handling, suspension, brakes, finish. Great drivability.
What year was the bike manufactured
@@YuRll 2008
@@kellyheath8547 i just got an 09 with 4k miles on it for 5.5k
@@ActNasty5 but my purchase was 10 years ago.
Been there done that! These days I’m more interested in bikes that are fun at semi legal speeds.
Martin Parr 600s are more “fun” than 1000s
Steve Stark absolutely! If I was after a track bike a 600 would be the way to go. At my age 52 maybe a cruiser would be a good idea but a 650 dual sport could also be fun.
enduro/supermoto is where its at 👌🏻
I’ve been riding for 20 years. And my fireblade still scares me, egging me on to push harder into corners. It’s a focused machine.
I own the same bike, Same Year, Same colour.. Its true, it's a beast! Especially the mid range acceleration. I've owned it for 9 months now. You just can't help riding this bike faster than you know you should. and the electronic steering damper has saved me once already.. Still alive, so far! Great fun. Can't wait for the dam rain to stop.
Took your advice and bought a new 2017 CBR1000RR leftover for 10k I was looking at a used s1000rr that was 15k with 5k miles . You guy's made my dream come true........ Thanks
you alive
@@NS-pu5bd probably not
That bike sounds awesome!
I never get to see you testing out a dual sport bike, how come? My buddies and I keep talking about getting them and I was curious what size and what brand to buy.
Love my 2006 RR1000 in black with the exhaust under the seat ,also have a power commander on it.Very fast but handles so well even 2 up
I had an 09 CBR1000RR and it was the best bike ive ever owned. It was way more docile, forgiving and sneaky fast. I had an R1 before owning the CBR and that thing was INSANE, if you cracked the throttle more then 20% youd be looking at skydaddy, grab the front brakes and ENDO. It also had this terribly tendency to induce tankslappers.
Yamahas give brutal tank slappers, the are very difficult to enjoy without a good steering dampener
God said I'll send a man on a motorcycle.
I really want you to review a cbr 929rr. Love your videos man.
How does the cbr compare to the suzuki 1000. I really like the way they look especially that white when you have but all my bikes are black. I keep seeing these videos with you talking about how much you love them and now it's got me thinking I love them to and I'ma Suzuki guy. I know you are too with the GSXR s..I've been riding Suzuki since I was 6 years old ,Harley's too but just saying you got me thinking I want a Honda now. An hour ago I was thinking about a Hayabusa Turbo because my GSXR is pissing me off. The wiring issue
problem has got me really really pissed off... I just painted it looks great poster frame and now won't start and keeps burning the freaking turn signal relay I don't have anything shorting out .
I went through the whole harness
My all time favorite bike bro!! I love that year cbr 1000rr!!!!
These bikes are so close to being perfect machines. I love em
Loved the fact that she was a widow maker but popped a wheelie. There are many videos of people talking about how to buy a used bike but never About a specific one. I know it will take too long to make each individual video tailored to each bike but if you could,could you make a video about buying a used 2011 CBR fire blade 1000 RR with the what should you look for before purchasing. Please and thank you if you could.
I have the 2013. I was my first sport bike -- which is nutz. Now I've stepped it back to a 2017 R6 for the track.
Great video. Owner of a Euro Spec CBR 900 Fireblade! 98 model jetted and geared to run with current R1s, ZX 10s, GXSRs and Ducatis! Still going strong!!!
8:54 "But the scary thing is that it might make you think you're a better rider than what you are, AND THAT'S WHEN YOU DIE!!....." (CUTS INSTANTLY TO NEXT SCENE)
Me: 😮😮😮😮😮😮
Also Me: So how much for this baby? 😏
if I'm going to buy a bike, i want the extra power. i may not use it much (🤣) but it's there when i do... and to me, nothing beats that feeling riding around south Florida with the exotic cars, all the srt challenges, etc, and you take a look around- sizing up everyone around you, all while knowing _YOU are the fastest man on the road... _*_untouchable_* ....
love it
I just got a 2000 CBR 600 f4 to tinker around with gana fix it up. looks great from what i can tell it is nick-nak body work is all it needs so excited for when it gets warmer here.
I dunno , I rode the cbr1000rr for a while and I found it was one of the most forgiving 1000s out there . Very smooth and predictable, you gotta really have intentional input to make this bike bite back
I feel like it's way more forgiving and comfortable than a R1
being forgiving is a good quality to have for a machine that goes 180mph. ergonomics, and knowing you'll be safe will give the confidence to get up to speed.
Yeah I think when ppl think 1k they instantly freak out . From the videos seems like it can be tamed long as you just be careful
I must have seen this video around 9-10 times as it made me think and re-think twice, thrice with many sleepless nights...Finally got my 2009 CBR1000rr Repsol today with 30k kms and am loving it! Thanks for the insight Sean!
BTW, just love all your videos especially the bible verses b4 u ride, do you have any app for them or do you pick our the verses on your own?
I'm in the same page,. Totally in love with this bike
I know exactly what you mean. After parting ways with my 929 in 2009, I've held onto the dream of owning the 1000RR from 2008. This week, that dream finally became a reality. Since bringing her home, I've been unable to shake off the excitement, finding myself wide awake at night with thoughts solely fixated on my new bike.
My favorite bike I’ve ever ridden was a super quarter response car 250. Best beginner bike ever. Yea it’s not fast compared to most 600 bikes, but that 20k redline is so much fun. Plus it’s light enough that beginners won’t have trouble keeping the bike of the pavement at a light.
Cbr*
That leg cramp at 10:50 . I used to get that on my blade to 👍
Love the video awesome bike! Lol this bike is crazy fast and make you see God! Lol🤣 😂 🤣 great video keep them coming and ride safe
I think it’s a great option for an experienced and responsible rider.
Absolutely agreed. Especially if you’re tryna upgrade to a 1000cc bike. This is an amazing bike to start with
Haven’t watched any your vids n a min about buying all the bikes. Gotta say, love your use of destroy and Kill, good persona makes me laugh
I bought my 2015 CBR1000RR 3 years ago when I turned 65 because I knew that I needed something a bit lighter than my FJR. My CBR is strictly for touring and it's done a fine job. Average trip is probably around 5,000 Km's with a 13,000 Km trip last June. It's not as comfortable as the FJR but I can still do 1,600 Km / 1,000 mile days but 700 Km's is average. I'd love another 100-125 Km's of gas range. I did have to raise the bars a bit, drop the pegs slightly, and mount hard bags. This has made is the perfect bike for me.
2014 Repsol Represent 💪 10th RR And going strong.
1:45 “every single mode.... is kill” lol 😂
I know it’s a very different engine but I had a 1999 Honda VTR and it was super fast and torquey and amazing. Miss that thing.
Hey you want light, do a review on the Cbr954rr. It's 4 lbs lighter than their cbr600. Superior handling.
