Guys - Thanks so much for all your questions. Ive tried to answer as many as possible. We had to split this into 2 parts so keep an eye out for episode 2 next week.
Jonathan, thanks so much for choosing and answering my question. I am very encouraged to hear that your advice echoes what I have been doing. I've invested money in "bike protection" and top end tires. A large majority of my money is going to good coaching and I definitely see the benefits in my riding. Thanks again for your advice. Looking forward to seeing your progress with team Yamaha! Keep yourself safe! 😃👍❤🏍🏁🏆 Randy
Thanks for taking the time to answer my question 😊 I find your videos really interesting and more "real" than other racers 👌🏼 Thanks for bringing us along on your journey! 👍🏼✊🏼
Well done with the wood chuck - not easy. Agree with you on the van drive to Spain. The train overnight from Paris is a good way to wake up fresh in the Pyrenees to with no risk to the kit... #JR65
As a trackday rider, I love the trackday tips idea! As far as I can tell, you still hold the outright two wheel lap record around Mondello Park. I'd love to hear any tips you have for that track.
Thank you for answer my questions and good luck this season. I will be supporting your from my sofa, but plan to go to a few meetings in Europe. Cheers
Thank you for answering my question! The Barry Sheene Memorial Trophy is part of the Goodwood Revival. Fun to see the likes of Mcguinness, Rutter, Dunlop & others scrap it out on classic GP bikes!👍😅
Once again down to earth guy great you take the time for your vlog to answer questions ❤ ps don't think those moto gp guy's are any better than you you're up there with them😊
Love your content bud, just want say good luck on championship and enjoy urself. Very proud of ya from as im from N.ireland. keep up the great work m8 and just enjoy urself.
Thanks for the great Q & A session JR 👍😎 I follow all SBK series and interested this year to see how the new balancing rules will affect things. I reckon its going to close the field and for sure perhaps bring a few more to the podium battle. I hope Yamaha have a few extra RPM to deal with that V4R on tracks like Portimao (one of my favourite Euro events next to Mugello and Aragon). Good luck for 2024 and as ever keep her rubber side down 😜✊
Thanks for answering my questions Johnny, Great insights throughout. Top Man👌 Very best of luck in the coming season on the Yam, hope you achieve all you aim for and more. Seanie#55
Hi Jonathan, really enjoyed your Q&A session. You have to be the most humble six time WSBK world champion there ever was. Your description of being in the MotoGP paddock and being surrounded by superstars. lol You my friend are a WSBK superstar. 👍
Johnathan whe donnington reopened the final loop was a vast hole and they filled it in with spoil from a motorway I think so it is a new part of the old track
How many times this season do you think you'll have to bat away that question asking you to compare the Yamaha to the Kawasaki! I hope the journos know by now you're too much of a gentleman to answer it. Btw, Craner Curves in the wet must scary AF!
Great content. Do you ever sit back and think "Wow! I'm riding a superbike for a job!"? Do you have "off" days when you're doing laps but not able to do the job at hand? Can you just go "Sorry, guys, can we try something else, because I'm not "feeling it" today or is that not an option because you're a professional rider and there's so many other people in the team depending on you?
I’m a huge MotoGP and WSBK fan. Bautista is another world level of riding. But I thought he’d do abit better than he did in his Malaysia MotoGP race. I know it’s a one off and takes time to get used to a new bike etc
Q & A with JR is more valuable to us as a video than you realise. It's great to get insights
I will try to do more during the season. Check back for part two!

Means a lot
What a great video, much better questions than those trotted out by journalists. You seem really chilled out before the season, good luck with it!
Thanks for taking the time to answer my question 😊
I find your videos really interesting and more "real" than other racers 👌🏼

Thanks for posting Jonathan. Good luck for season 2024, although my heart is still with Kawasaki.
Hello Jonathan, happy new year from sunny Ballyclare. I think you may have heard of this wee town.
Well done with the wood chuck - not easy.
Agree with you on the van drive to Spain. The train overnight from Paris is a good way to wake up fresh in the Pyrenees to with no risk to the kit...

Hi Jonathan, really enjoyed your Q&A session. You have to be the most humble six time WSBK world champion there ever was. Your description of being in the MotoGP paddock and being surrounded by superstars. lol You my friend are a WSBK superstar. 👍
Wow, thank you!
@@jrea65 You would've quickly become a MotoGP superstar yourself, had you been allowed to stay!🤩 But, they needed a King of WSBK! 👑
JR love watching you brother!! Good luck 👌🙏🏻!
Awesome! Thank you!
Number 1 Johnny!!!❤💪💪
Got that jr65 arai rep sitting right next to me 👌🏾 best helmet I ever wore but hair got too long lol
Johnathan whe donnington reopened the final loop was a vast hole and they filled it in with spoil from a motorway I think so it is a new part of the old track
If you dont ask you dont get, would you consider coaching me for a day ? Good luck for this season ✊✊
👍
we love your channel j❤️
Interesting to hear your views on different aspects of the machinery and coming season, all the best for 2024.
Thanks, you too!
You did really well in motogp jr .
What's better Johnny. A WSBK world championship or a TT win.. You might need to ask your aul fella that one.
Keep her lit in 2024.

man's back from his vacation
Sure am
Great job Jonathan, I enjoyed the insights 👍
Awesome, thank you!
@jrea65 are you a gamer at all? Do you ever play the MotoGP or SBK games? Relatedly, do SBK riders have simulators, similar to F1 drivers?
Great content. Do you ever sit back and think "Wow! I'm riding a superbike for a job!"? Do you have "off" days when you're doing laps but not able to do the job at hand? Can you just go "Sorry, guys, can we try something else, because I'm not "feeling it" today or is that not an option because you're a professional rider and there's so many other people in the team depending on you?
Hey johnny all the best for 2024 will you do any on-board with niccolo canepa?
Do you see yourself as a racing coach in the future??
Awesome content, thanks! 🔥
Greetings from Slovakia! Fingers crossed for you!
But seriously Johnny, how does it feel to be just as cute as the Dickens? Asking for a friend.
I’m a huge MotoGP and WSBK fan. Bautista is another world level of riding. But I thought he’d do abit better than he did in his Malaysia MotoGP race. I know it’s a one off and takes time to get used to a new bike etc
It sure does
MotoGP far superior. More professional. Higher budgets and better machines. There you go.
If offered the chance of a Wildcard in Moto GP with Yamaha at Assen, would you accept it?
ouffffff.. We might have to create an episode 3 q&a now..:
@@jrea65 🤦♂️ I’ve pulled the pin on the grenade and lobbed it 🤣
😎✌️💚
I don't know what SBK means, why abbreviate it? Tug on your marketing pants.
Monster insignia means 666 in Hebrew....so there's that.
WSBK fun racing MOTOGP boring as it gets
Thanks for JR 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
No problem 👍
Happy New Year Mr Rea 🎉
And open pipe gas ...
Happy new year!
Buy the poor camera guy a tripod. I'm getting a bit sea siick lol.
