"I imagine that ownership of this bike is nothing but pleasurable". Great way of putting it. Between the looks, performance, and reliability I would agree

Just keep doing what you're doing, don't change a thing👌

It’s about time I watched a review without falling asleep… I do like the fact you have mixed it up with voice over and live commentary, well put together vlog… and the bike well simply stunning.

A great, honest review. Thank you. I enjoyed the mix of on-road blogging and commentary. 👍😎🇦🇺

It’s about time I watched a video without falling asleep well put together I love the voice over and live commentary, and the bike simply stunning.

The best looking retro without doubt 👌

Awesome review mate. Really appreciate the listing of all the specs while showing images of the bike itself, diagrams, charts etc.

As others have said, this is a really well put together video. Looks very professional and very informative without being too long and repetitive. That CB is a cracking looking bike too!

This is the best review I've seen so far on this bike!

Nice review. First full review I've seen on KZfaq in English. Lovely looking bike with a lovely level of fit and finish although I think it should have cruise control and an I.M.U by now, like most bikes in this price range. Ride safe and keep up the good work.

First time viewing your channel and I like how this video was put together. Thanks!

I like the moto-vlogging on test rides for the unfiltered “as-it-happened” feel and commentary.

Great looking bike, and fantastic review. Like the mix of audio: considered opinion voice over along with immediate reaction ride commentary

Quality, beauty, reliability

Picked my black edition up 2 weeks ago. You are spot on with the all rounder experience. As a 20+ year rider of many different bikes, this is the easiest to ride and super fun when you want it to be. Shame about the weather😢

Excellent review!!! Enjoyed the quick shifting phase.

This is an exciting Honda Bike and review! I just love the Honda for its looks and its endurance! Excellent review! Every base was touched just enough to give me a complete picture of the CB1000R. Like you, I think the extra money is worth it for the Black edition! Great bike by Honda, Excellent Review!

Great review thanks,had mine 3 weeks and LOVE it!!

I've watched dozens of reviews on this bike but from you video, I learned things I did not know before, such as the comparison between models '20/'21. Well done, I've subscribed.

Very good video, thank you !! I just picked mine up yesterday - have had a chance to put many miles on it yet... cheers

2 yrs into mine, town and track days love it...Will have another..👍

4:31 Thank you so much you legendary KZfaqr. I have been searching far and wide to get some more info on the connectivity portion of the new control unit. For some reason everyone else just glosses over this piece as if it's not a selling point by itself. Again, thank you very much for clarifying the capabilities of this new TFT display and how the smartphone app interacts with it.

Thanks for all the commentary, especially on the blacked out bits and rider comfort. Nice work.

I’m just gonna buy it. I had the 2015 cb1000. This looks twice as good 👍

Honda cb1000r is a highly overlooked bike. If Ducati came up with it. Every Tom, Dick and Mo would be singing its praises

I like your style of commentary no matter how or when it is delivered. This is another top notch review but at 2m I think I'm going to be too lanky for this particular bike, dammit!

Great review, thanks so much! I think now this is on my shopping list :)

Just had my cb650r last Friday. Already called the dealership to take it back and get myself the cb1000r black edition. 650 is sweet and nice tho this 1000 is a demon 😊

Great video, loved the mix of live commentary and voice-over!

Great review, thanks for the insight in this wonderful piece of machinery! 😍

best review on this bike brother.

Awesome review! This is one beautiful bike. Love the black edition. Thanks for sharing.

Great video, made me make my mind up and just brought a used black edition from virtue honda 👍

Great review of the bike and love the format of informative txt and comments whilst riding. Balance spot on! Just picked up my 2021 black edition 2 days ago. Can t wait to try it out properly over the coming months. I don t think any video of this bike brings out how good the bike looks in reality. Seeing it in “The flesh” it’s a stunning looking bike.

Excellent review ... one of my basis for deciding to go for this bike... kudos!

I love this bike

Presentation style is a good balance. Agree with Steve Steve, keep it as it is. Keep them coming.

Love this ..... my kinda geeky level of detail. Just fully blacked out my own bike

I have chosen the CB 1000 R. I had the CB 900 HORNET at the time and the CB 1000 R seems to me to be a step forward. The CB 650 R is very sweet and manageable, I totally agree with that, but it lacks a bit of spark for my taste.

I've been lurking for a while now.... Nice review. I like your style. The mix in this review between on and off the bike audio is a good refreshing change to most others. Keep going!

Nicely edited video - appreciated! I have the 2018 (black) and I nicely painted the radiator shroud, “windscreen”, and cover for the air box and I think it looks great. There were just too many splotches of silver everywhere that just broke up any continuity. Love the new rims on the 2021 and if they did something to hide the collector box and header pipes that all is great. My only dislike is the light. This already was borderline “retro” but the MV Augusta type light makes it less retro in my opinion. With nearly 20k miles on this bike, it still runs perfect! The maintenance schedule, oh boy it’s pretty much change the oil and check other fluids. Zero issues. Only gripe are the tires...they are great, but they are high performance tires; so unless u do that kind of riding (which let’s be honest u really can’t on a naked, the wind at 90 mph starts to push on your chest) id go for a tire with some more durability.

Fantastic review. Thanks for going into depth, but making it really simple to folllow 👌

Great format for the video, with a mix of on and off bike commentary. I like this bike a lot and it's definitely on my "to be considered next time I change" list. Thanks

Beautiful bike It's the only in-line 4-cylinder motorcycle I'd think of buying. I prefer 2 cylinders in line or in V Great video

Would certainly like to see legislation introduced for an LED DRL bar or ring in a colour (Suggest green) for the headlamp. So that in a mass of headlights on a busy road it would be easier for car drivers to identify a motorcycle in the mix. Good review👍, nice bike.

I think it looks much better than the last version especially the dash great video as always 👍👍

I've got a 2020 CB1000R+ and I absolutely love it. My only concerns 4k+ miles in is the rear shock is not fit for purpose and the throttle when in Sports is extremely snatchy, almost dangerous I would say when going around and out of bends. Surprised you didn't mention either of these issues in the review! I understand a lot of that is to do with meeting emissions regulations and it's only a map away, but it could be better. 140bhp is also plenty for the road, front end lifts up to 3rd gear when you hit the right revs, I like that it's manageable and user friendly in that respect. Great review :)

Great review and the mix of voice over and live recording hits the sweet spot for me 😃

Its clear you put a lot of work into making really excellent videos, fair play to you

i prefer the way you did this video. good quality and informative.

Quality vid, professional level editing. The bike is quite possibly my next steed. Can I ask what leather jacket you’re wearing in this vid please

Great video! If I didn't already have a Triumph Street Twin in the garage, I'd seriously consider getting this one! Keep up the great work! Current style of footage and commentary is perfect 👍🏻

Great review! Love the format and enjoyed the commentary! Well done!

Nice review as always..REAL world .... had the 2019 version...nice bike

I can’t wait to get mine on may!!! Keep the good work fantastic review on a awesome bike!

Really liked the talk while riding

Really enjoyed the format, spot on 👍

Your presentation's are excellent! Always enjoy your video's! Keep up your great efforts. From the other side of the water--- ILLINOIS,U.S.A.

nice content as always, nice music, thx mate

Beautiful bike ! If I didn’t love my 2005 Busa so much I’d be looking at that new CB

I started dreaming 💭 riding this machine while watching your video amazing review and great explanation about machine keep it that way now .

Like your mix style, it’s your own. What a bike eh. Awesome.

That is one beautiful machine good job on the video

Good review and great format!

It's absolutely gorgeous!

Call me when they use the VFR1200 V4 motor to make a real naked bike contender.

Sir, great video. Thank you!

The action shots you get are fantastic.

I would love to go get one for summer but can't afford. What puts me off is can't put a pillion on it !!??? The video is ok because can hear the great sound of the bike as well as your commentary! It's good format!!!

Excelente. Saludos desde Costa Rica.

Buying it. Thanks

Excellent video Tony Mix of voice overs give great variety I'd say Was that the WW1 aerodrome at Stow Maries?

Very good review friend!

Good stuff. Review style seems good to me ! On the bike, the TFT looks like a significant improvement over last years inverted LCD. On a test ride last year, I had an issue seeing the 2020 display. Honda need to get rid of the inverted LCDs off the rest of their bikes. My former 2018 CB125R was a nightmare to see in bright sunlight. CB500X I test rode, that was a bad display too !

It’s absolutely the perfect do everything bike for a more mature but not old person. Only thing I wish it had was cruise control. If the MT-09 has cruise control there is no excuse why the CB1000R shouldn’t have it. Especially sense it’s so attractive as a daily rider bike that people will probably spend a good amount of time on the highway. Cruise control and saved me from getting so many speeding tickets. It should be standard on any bike over $10k in 2021 and later bikes there is no excuse to not have those things.

Like all your stuff. Like this bike, too. Except the new headlight, that is. maybe, it will grow on me.

Great review…👍🏻

Testament to what Honda can achieve, quality, reliable and good looking motorcycles. 👍, unfortunately Triumph are really setting the standard with their range. Speedtriple coming soon

Lovely looking bike. Good to see Honda back on the quality, good looking bike program again. Quick question what is the video mount set up you are using. I would like something like that for the tours I do rather than just the side mounted GoPro set I have. Mixed commentary works for me as I always think that commentary done afterwards detracts from the 'real' riding experience.

Talk while riding, voice over is fine but I prefer talk while riding 👍🏽 great review.

If I ever decide to go 1000 this is the only bike I'd get

Great review buddy , wish I could afford one , cheers Shane uk 🇬🇧

Cool video...great job! 🏍😎👌

Like this bike it's got character and looks retro not overkill on the PS too enough umph for me

The sliver hex bolts stand out so much wish they blacked it out too

Wish they make the bolts black for a truly blacked out bike.

Good stuff, beauty

This is a nice looking bike I always liked blacked out bikes with the machined aluminum bits. Nice Review. 142 hp still sounds like a ticket maker. 😆

What a pretty bike.

Stunning capable bike, I just wish they had thrown cruise control or an IMU in there. While it’s not a must have even sub 10k bikes now have these and at 13k I was hoping for a more complete package. It’s looks and finish could still sway me but they could of made my decision a lot easier by including those.

Nice village setting.

These things just look cool 😎

Looks good ...

Does the new tech pack include an IMU and cruise control? Starting to shop around for a nice highway commuter and backroad weapon

The 2018-2020 model had people complaining about a flat spot in the power band around the 4-5 rpm mark. Is this still there and if it is do you think a simple ecu flash would remedy it? Great review thanks, I ride a Z900rs and have always liked this gen cb and it’s on my short list for my next bike.

Well reviewed...and sensibly done....no drama queen antics....😒next please...😉I like my 2014 well enuff....until I can get the turbo..😳

nice video. nice bike

IMO, Matt black all over.

I prefer the old headlight. That one looks like a dunny seat

I like the look of the bike but wish it had just a little bit more power. 160-175 HP would be ideal to compete with other bikes in its class
