I need to repeat Sir Quest Infinity and say now: "WTF!!!! HOW CAN YOU NOT HAVE SUZUKI GSXR MODELS AMONGST THE TOP BIKES OF THE 90S. TOTAL BLASPHEMY"

WTF!!!! HOW CAN YOU NOT HAVE SUZUKI GSXR MODELS AMONGST THE TOP BIKES OF THE 90S. TOTAL BLASPHEMY😡😡😡😡😡

My favorite years for motorcycles was the 90s, Very well put together and also looked sweet.

Of course no mention of the "six-years-in-a-row best bike of the year" and Honda flagship VFR 750F (RC36).

still can't beat a good lightweight 2 stroke 250cc with a sightly insane rider lol

GSX-R1100 anyone? 1990 ,1991,

Surprised the Honda VFR 750/800 wasn't mentioned.

the yzf 750 was a beauty too, 90 sport bikes looks better than nowadays bikes

GSXR not listed? Poor show! A fantastic bike of the 90's surely needs a mention!

I bought a new R6 in 1999 loved it so i sold it for a 2001 R1 really loved those machines. In 2004 i sold them and bought a ZX9R and I’ve been a mean green fan since

96 gsxr 750 and ducati 916 were the most important sportbikes of the 90s

GSXR SRAD? Suzuki won so many titles in the 1990s

WTF.......Did Suzuki boycott your show for an entire decade; SRAD !!!!!!

My first bike was a 1990 Honda RC30. I bought a second one in 2012 and still love them. I recently bought a 95 Ducati 916. I have an 848 evo but really enjoy the older ones. Looking to buy an older GXSR soon. Love the late 80s and early 90s sport bikes.

zx7r was the best looking bike of the late 90s hands down

I agree on GSXR! I loved my 98 750!! The bike always asked for more than I was willing to give LOL. I only like vintage sport bikes. My current one is a ‘98 900RR hiding under all ‘93 body work. Only 7,500 miles and minty stock black. My sons bike is a ‘94 ZX7R that still rides nice and tight.

Even tho I own a Thundercat I agree with everyone else here, where's the Suzuki SRADs or Gsxr1000s etc..?

I drive on a 1992 ZZR-1100 for more than 9 years. What a glorious engine to drive whether it was too quiet to drive or you wanted fast it could all.

What about the Suzuki GSX-R750?

A colleague of mine had a ZX7-R and he said it was the most fun bike he ever owned. He maxed out a few times with no problems.

ThunderCat was a great machine. Underrated - unfairly. It’s the 600 you can easily live with everyday

Love the way British always find a way to put a Triumph on the rankings....

Not a SINGLE Suzuki model mentioned... well, it's hard to see this channel as objective from this point. You talk about bikes such as the Thundercat (!!!) and not saying the letters: G S X R a single time. Really disappointing, but the complete lack of Suzukis might have something else in the background...

96 RR-T FireBlade what a great bike even today. I have the same one in the same tri colours, 20yrs old and still looks amazing. Hondas build quality is unreal. If you've never owned an early blade go and buy one.

What about the SUZUKI GSXR 1100 1992 model !!!!!!! What happened mate?????

I had a '94 CBR900RR. It was a mould-breaker, but the 16 inch front wheel was a mistake. The handling, apologists talked about quick turn-in, was poor with zero feedback. People were replacing the wheel or fitting different triple clamps, but nothing cured it. I sold it 5 years later in favour of an R1 which was night and day better, in fact, the best bike I ever owned, with apologies to my current 1290 SAS which is a terrific machine.

The best looking bike was the gsxr750 and 1100 from the year 1990. I had a 90 which I bought new. The best overall bike of the 90s would have to be the zx11, but I could be biased since I now own a 1991 zx11 and ride every day.

Love 90's sportbikes but I'm keeping my k3 gsxr1000 forever.

I have an R1 and agree it was an amazing bike But 1990 saw the introduction of the Hayabusa.. The bike that broke every understanding of speed and acceleration and started the modern speed war. I am also fortunate enough to own a ZX14 and giggle every time I twist the throttle.

1993 kawasaki ZXR-750 STOLE MY HEART

It's shame this show does not exist nowdays!

Wicked video, I love seeing these old clips. I'm surprised that the VFR800 wasn't mentioned though.

Best Sportbike from the 90s Honda Cbr 900 RR Fireblade!

If you don´t mention the GSX-R,... i can´t take your Video seriously and you lost all your credibility.

Good memories. Had an EXUP, awesome. Currently Daytona 955i, great bike, sound of thunder. Beautiful machine.

I loved my 1994 red, white and blue Fireblade.

Late 90's was amazing...ZX-9R...TL1000R...GIXXER750...YZF-R1...FUCK BLADE..R7...THE BUS..BLACKBIRD,. DUKE... APPRILIA, der... ZZR100!,,Personally after many years of KWAKS, i got a 2000 R1,and it blew me away!..Now back on a kwak,but i miss the R1 days,she taught me so much...loony bike...HEE(total respect to TL1000R though),if only i was taller,AGHHH,just love how they go and sound!!

where is suzuki ? this review is LOL

no gsx-r?????

Glad to see some of my bikes there. Always been partial to 90's bikes, especially the rarer oddballs of the bunch. Current stable includes..... 91 GSF400 Bandit 92 FZR1000 EXUP 93 TDM850 93 VN1500 93 KLX650R

The Kawasaki Zx-11 is severely underrated today. I took mine on a 2600 mile trip from Iowa to New Mexico with no problems. I alternate riding the 99 Zx-11 with a 2006 VFR, utilizing the VFR for shorter 300 mile rides :)

The kawasaki zxr 750 hoses dont push air into the carburators- they just cool the top of the engine

Where's the SRAD and Hayabusa? Much better and more influential than the Thunderace and Thundercat!

I do miss hearing the alarm beeps whilst walking around a bike dealership 😆

BLAND?! ORDINARY?! The Blackbird is everything but bland and ordinary. That fucking thing has a powerband that's downright frightening and it moves like the space shuttle. Sorry, but words like "breathtaking" and "holy shit" are better descriptors of the Blackbird, even when it's just sitting there.

I agree about the GSXR750, but how about the YZF750R? Fantastic bike, my favourite of my Yam collection.

CBR900 was the best most forward looking bike. Just over 400lbs and a whole bunch of power.

TL1000 anyone?

Shame that you didn’t mention my little widow maker a 1999 Suzuki TL 1000 SX, an astonishing bike built to take on the Ducati’s of the time that once they put the steering damper on and you personally threw away the stupid and dangerous rear rotary damper has been putting an enormous grin on my face for the last 20yrs. Truly one of the most superb and powerful bikes I’ve ever ridden and No, they are not just for pulling mono’s, in the right hands they are stupendously quick against almost all takers only being outdone by a superior bike and rider.

I still have my 98 ZX11 that i bought in 01.... amazing machine!!

I love my 93 Fireblade, I lucked into it not knowing what it was

How on earth you didnt mention Suzuki thumbs down !!!

Errr, those "hoover pipes" on the J models ZXRs don't go to the carbs, they're purely cosmetic. Thought everyone knew that.

I think this video should be called best * sportsbikes * of the 1990s. I've got bikes from the 90s that aren't fast but are built so well that they still ride fantastically 30 years on but id depends how you define the word 'best'. Also what about the Suzuki SV650 came out in 1999 and they're quite popular.

ZX7R Every time way ahead of its time and built like a tank iv got 4 of them also the blade love it

Loved my 87 FZR 1000. Fucking beast. Now happy with my 2002 Triumph 955i

No 98 ZX-9R.. ....no TL1000R.... ....no SRAD 750.... ..really?? ..a 750 that spanked the 900RR in it's day.. ..not exactly an unbiased review.

I remember taking a zzr1100 out for a test ride when they 1st came out. I opened it up and nearly pooed myself so i decided to stick with my 1978 400/4 instead 🤣🤣🤣🤣

1992 cbr250rr. Or possibly the 94 rvf 400. Also, the vfr is bulletproof.

I'm a 46 years old guy in a 1990 kawasaki ninja zx10 smoking kids left and right. Don't like the new bikes they feel and handle super light . Good luck going over 130 and a paper bike . I still can do 160 mph straight in mine no problem this 600 pounds beast is steady as a rock.

Hayabusa?? GSXR 750?? GSXR 1100?? TL1000S?? Honda RC45?? Honda NC35?? Aprilia RSV Mille?? Aprilia RS 250??..... Hey, I don't know everything but bugger me I am suprised that none of these were on the list!! Every lad growing up in the 90's had posters of these on their walls!! As well as some big jugged bird from Street Fighters magazine.... Come on, you all know what I am talking about!!

HI iv had a zzr6 ,918 blade ,iv now got a zx6r 636 and a blackbird thought they may of had more to say about cbrxx and no gsxr in there which suprised me

Suzuki tlr1000 my favourite bike from the 90s

What a great review. I could have watched this for an hour solid.

I had the ZX-11 great machine too bad that 2 gear blew about 4 them sat in shop all summer, so much for 1 year warranty.

Why oh why did people used to have bleeping alarms!! Listen you can hear it bleeping away throughout the vid when they are in the show room!! It's just activated not even going off!! Great bikes reviewed, few good ones missed.

Late 90's bikes were the best, VTR's :)

What kind of a shop is that and why do they have so many older bikes in perfect showroom condition? I'm not sure if I missed it as I've been watching this at work in bits and pieces.

I have owned them all, ZX7R K1, three 1991 GSXR 1100s, FZR etc. Hands down the 98 R1 from the 90s without question. Best bike of the ninties .... Barring the rare homogated an RC30, yep just got one! or R7 ....

Honda. Xx the king

Suzuki Katana? GSX-R 1000 &750 RT 900,all excellent bikes with bullet proof engines, crazy how these aren't mentioned!!

ZZR, Blackbird and CBR600F are great, but listing the best bikes of the 90's and not mentioning the Hayabusa is unforgivable.

90 ninja zxr 750 didn't have ram air, the hover pipes through the tank just blew air on the engine for cooling purposes... I know, I have one....

This list is subjective, these are the bikes the presenters think are the best of the nineties, not the bikes that you all think are the best. If you disagree with their choices, then make your own video where you can showcase the bikes you believe were the best. I rode most of the bikes on this list at one point or another, including owning a '94 ZXR750 and a '96 SRAD, I still have a ' R1 and a 2001 GSX-R750. All the bikes had positives and negatives and it was down to each rider to determine their own personal ones. The pre SRAD GSX-R's were okay, but I found that if you really pushed them hard, they felt like they had a hinge in the middle, the perimeter frame just wasn't good enough for all the power if you tried to really 'get on it'. The Triumph has incredible handling, but only up to a certain amount, the 916 handled fantastically, but only had about 109 bhp and it always seemed to be in the wrong gear. For example, third would be trying to spit you off, but if I changed to fourth, it felt like there was no power. the CBR600 was like a Mazda MX-5, a sports bike that anyone could ride, but was too soft for anyone who could push the limits of it. I rode my brother in law's 2004 CBR600f and I got frustrated by the lack of power and sharpness when I tried to ride it hard. But these are my experiences and views, which will be completely different from your own and also from the two guys in this video.

Thanks, I had in 2015 a T595, great bike

90's bikes had the most soul/character and the best looks. 2000's had a good portion of that plus better technology.

I had 3 of them. ZZR1100, FZR1000 and Blackbird (wich I stell have).

Very surprised Honda VF/VFR Interceptor series wasn't mentioned...

To much Sport,s for me , looking for my Kawasaki 1100 Zephyr , but i cant find a nice Reportage on KZfaq :-(

The air that goes in the air tubes doesn't go to the carbs of the zxr... It's for cooling the engine head.

how the hell did these brits leave out suzuki ?!

Probably not too relevant 21 years later haha but the Thunderace has a split seat, not a dual seat. (I own one!). The rest of what they said is pretty accurate.. Fast, quite comfy and slightly more chubby than the blade.

I really miss these days... when all the bikes were so distinctive. Now, just like modern cars, they all seem to have started looking WAY too similar. One of many reasons sport bikes are losing popularity and giving rise to super nakeds. No mistaking an FZ(MT)10 or 1290 Superduke! Anyone miss STREETFIGHTERS magazine as much as me???

WTF The most popular 1980-1990s bike was a gsxr-750

You meant EXUP Exhaust Ultimate Power Valve and closer to 160mph is more accurate for the FZR

0.40 that's just down the road from me! S bend near Mere Court Hotel - OMG.

ZZR 1100 is a legend ! 🖤🖤

The Suzuki snub must've been deliberate?!...🤔 The Hayabusa is a speed king and is still revered even 23 years on from it's conception. People rightly rave about it and it has become a 'cult status' machine! The 1990 GSX-R1100 L was a main rival for the FZR1000 exup, also the liquid cooled GSX-R1100's (1993-1998) haven't been mentioned and they were a constant thorn in the side of the ZZR1100's. Obviously the GSX-R750 and 600 SRAD (1996-1999) haven't had a well deserved nod from these two either! Then again... they never introduced the Yamaha YZF750 R/SP (1993-1998) which was arguably a better bike than the fireblade, it was just unfortunate to have been made a year after the blade was catapulted in to the world! Despite how fantastic both the fireblade and the R1 are, i find them to be very overrated!! I'd personally have a ZX-9R over a blade or an R1 and that was another machine which wasn't given the 90's motorbike red-carpet tribute!

These guys have obviously never heard of a Suzuki Hayabusa. It's only the fastest production motorcycle ever. In fact, no Suzuki bike was mentioned!

Really guys! Not a mention of the 85 Gsx-r.. FZR 1000 topped out at a bit more than 150mph+ too A bit vague with no quoted figures... Yes, the zzr 1100 was a great bike, but a dinosaur compared to a blackbird. I like the style of this show, but anybody who is watching already knows their bikes... Having owned 3 early model R1's, the handling was anything but fantastic. Nervous would describe it better and just a tad dangerous. The 916 was indeed a milestone bike, but then so was an RC30.

Had a SRAD GSX-R 750 bought it for $3500 was great

Wow, haven't seen the early r1 forever. Cool

I’m 24 now my first bike was a 2004 vtr1000 and my second one was a 1998 cbr900rr and my third bike was a 2009 cbr1000rr ended up keeping all 3 of the bike.

lame. no mention of vfr, 96 up gsxr 750, st1100, or the hayabusa!

I had an r1 in that colour, wish i kept it.

How on earth did you not include the vfr 750 i don't think you know your bikes as well as you think you do

I'm confused. This looks like it's filmed in the 60s and they are talking about future bikes in the past tense. Help

Wow what a farce that was!!! A best bikes of the 90’s and no 1991 GSXR 1100 or 1996 GSXR 750 SRAD????? How about the RGV250???? Totally dropped the ball on this ladies!!!

GSXR7500 1999 was voted the best supersports bike of the decade.

thanks for the ok list, I'm pretty sure you missed a few key players
