I'm 61, been riding for 45 years and absolutely love my RR M Sport. Ride it loads, your body will soon get used to it, the bloody thing is awesome and worth every penny👌

Do you think 1000mi (1600km) trip in one day would be too much to do for a middle-aged body to handle? I'm really having trouble pulling the trigger on this bike, as it would be the only bike that i own. I've been riding for 17 years but mostly nakeds and cruisers, but im sick of those now.

@dogie61 Жыл бұрын

@@CandlejackZA I'm 41 have been riding an 2012 s1000 RR since 2014. It's a great bike. I've taken it on 6 hour rides when I lived in Hawaii with no roblems. Depending on your height may be better or worse. Im 5'9 and the woman I bought it from was even shorter. If you back is up to it go for it. If you can find someone to let you test it it might help.

@@CandlejackZA The RR is not designed for 1000 mile days. I have an FJR 1300, and at 850 miles in a day, I was more than happy to get off the bike. And, the FJR is known for IBR wins. I’m 57, have ridden for decades, and I’m also drawn to the RR, and also wonder more simply, can I ride it all day, comfortably? My rides are often 8 hours, two or three days at a time. Maybe the RR can’t be my only bike? It’s 250 lbs lighter, and 50hp faster - and that’s a big draw for me.

I have to say I loved this video. I am 43 years old and have many aches and pains from years of living. I'm switching from a bagger to something a bit more sporty. My first thought was a 2024 Hayabusa but I was also thinking of the S1000RR. I appreciate your point of view. Most youtubers talk about "OMG this is wicked fast and it can smoke these other bikes!" I appreciate that you talk about what the real ride experience is for the majority of NON SQUDS out there. Everyday people like to ride and we also like horse power, however, we also like comfort! Honestly this bike appeals to me for the display, the heated grips, nav, and all the built in blue tooth and technological goodies along with the speed and what a superbike might bring to the table!

I’d deffo have this over the Ducati. If you were comparing to a streetfighter naked then no, but Panigale vs RR you get so much more with the BMW. If you want less power put the RR in a lower mode; unless you can’t be trusted, then get the supersport 😂

Love your channel mate - happy new year from down under.

I think the most concerning thing has been feedback from people regarding its reliability. If you check Motomillian's latest video regarding his experience with the M1000RR, it has made me pause. I'm referring to the 2024 bikes that have the winglets. Not sure what the story is concerning reliability, but I'd say there's a reason they're now offering a 5 year warranty. However if a warranty fix is required at any stage, I would then be concerned about whether or not they'd honour the warranty. In that respect, Yamaha, Honda and Kawasaki are probably safer bets as reliable and cost effective superbikes. The BMW is lower on insurance, but higher in servicing. The Japanese bikes are the reverse. Higher on insurance but lower when servicing.

You know what, fellas? I'm 54 and I'am trying to figure out would I like this bike or go with a standard hyper naked. I have a motocross background and used to have a 20' Yamaha MT-10 that built as a touring machine. I sold it and got a 22' Honda CRF450R Works Edition dirt bike. But now I miss my street bike! It's been killing me trying to find out what bike to get as one bike to ride. I'm looking at a Husqvarna 701 Supermoto because it's fun and comfortable. Or do I want to go back to an MT-10 SP? The only thing I didn't like about the MT-10 was the weight and the heat that it gave off. I live in Arizona and that heat off that bike kept me off it. I test rode a 22' BMW GS Adventure and found it boring. It was comfortable but boring because the acceleration didn't excite me! We will see soon. This S1000 RR seems interesting but that riding stance with those low bars has me hesitant.

You can without a shadow of a doubt be able to ride this and ride it well with time. However what is you and what is the electronics? I think if you can get a r6 for a year then this you will be a better rider. If you’re of the view electronics are here to stay and all your future bikes will have them then you could take a short cut. But be warned that top end speed is easy and addictive; it can cost you your license or worse; only you can judge how sensible you’ll be.

@@kirillromazenko2799 I had an RR for a year, no issues. Friend has a 2 year old RR he’s had a year again no issues. Now have a R and friend has an R he had fork seal leak, all replaced on warranty no drama. As with everything it is luck of the draw but for us (touch wood) BMW has been good. 👍🏻

whats your opinion? I am choosing between a 1000R or RR but am afraid of the wind with a 1000R??? Thanks for the great videos!!!

@yodomcat 4 ай бұрын

If your back is good the RR all day. But if you do more miles and you’re back isn’t so great then the R. 👍🏻

Today I tested an M1000R for the first time and it was an AMAZING experience and feeling. Much more fun than I expected!!! Unfortunately, the motorcycle stores do not have RR for demo 🥹

Took out an M sport last weekend and I don’t really know what to think of it. How much fun do you have on yours? I found it crazy fast but worried I’ll end up dead if I buy one. On the other hand it is more practical than the super nakeds for me as I’m a tall lad and feel like a giant sail on those…

It’s soooo much fun! But not in a crap your pants bonkers way. You’re always the fastest bike in the pack; you can over take anything. And because of all that you may wind up with no license.

It’s not unique to that bike. I’m 40 in excellent health, no joint pains, gym goer (that’s me in my avatar) and still all sports bikes feel crap after an hour. I mean they’re designed with track ergos, don’t really make sense on the road. Better off with a hyper naked

Sorry a lot of your observations are way too negative like”another problem is the quickshift/blipper “makes” you lazy,this bike makes you want to go faster etc. The bike doesn’t “make”you do anything.It just provides exceptional equipment and tech for you to explore and have an exhilarating ride.Apart from that I enjoyed your vid.
