Been on the F900 for over two years now. It's never going tot win the spec sheet top trumps, but it's honestly been the best bike ever ever owned. Easy to do all day rides, but still the perfect amount of playfulness. If you're a taller person like me, it's by far and away the most comfortable bike in its class too.

Look how Chris rolls up with a smile and *I'M INSTANTLY SMILING* because I know it's going to be another great video!

It looks ace, a huge step up from the old F800R Chris Pfeiffer edition. I'd love to see a road legal styling option that looks like this.

I'm old enough to remember the 350LC race series from back in the day. Headbangers on identical machines with minimal tuning, man that was a scream to watch. If this gets anywhere close we are in for a fun watch. I would also nominate Chris for a seat in the 900R cup but if it would mean less videos of drag racing/bike tests/rebuilds etc then happy to see him sit it out.

Haven’t taken much notice of that bike before. That said I have a new found appreciation for its performance and looks. And sound! Although I must say hearing Chris saying “it’s a nice little bike” is 900cc 105hp considered “little” bikes? I’m sure they are for someone of his abilities. Who would want to see him in that race series? I definitely would👌

I've got the road version, had it new since March and already done 2k miles. It's a brilliant thing, nimble, comfortable, forgiving. Plenty of tech and enough power to make it feel fast across tight and twisty British A roads but long enough gearing that it's still comfortable on the motorway. Great all rounder. Good to see that it makes a decent track bike with a few simple modifications.

Awesome product for a racers series. Talent before gear. 💪👌

Damn that F900 cup bike sounds nasty!!!! 🤩 I would never wanna get off that bike lmao

Britains best kept secret is how much of a monster rider chris is...

This is definitely a good series to watch and look out for and will be exciting to watch, definitely a winner on the BSB race day and just needs TV airtime 👍

Great stuff,, real fun coming our way and be bringing new people to the limelight,, with all the doom around a Ray of sunshine and cheaper racing,☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️☘️ from northern Ireland great video thanks

Racing at sane speeds on a bike is more satisfying than riding high powered SS's and being terrified on the track half the time. When I was younger and not fat even my old 2001 R6 gave me some "moments". The most terrifying part for me was hitting my braking markers properly from high speeds which was key to good lap times. This bike looks like it hits the sweet spot in terms of fun and excitement. A "formula" or "spec" class is always fun because it's both affordable and competitive.

Really good review! I still sing your praises In the minitwins, you taught me all I know :)

Really looking forward to the race series. Remember the Boxer and Power Cup series - both were brilliant. The bike sounds and looks sublime - handling and rider experience looks amazing.

My first bike and having it for 2 summers now. Really like the styiling and the sound

It would be a good intermediate sport bike with fairings as well. Hopefully they make a fully faired version.

Love the sound....

That track is crazy.

Very nice. What a bike

I have the road bike and due to the non adjustable front forks I assumed it would be terrible on track really interesting review. Thanks

The prepped bike looks and sounds good...

Reminds me of Royal Enfields BTR series. Love it.

The sound of the machine is very cool.

It’s going to be a great series 😃

I'm saving for an upgrade from the little Duke 390. This is on the top of the list. Looks like a good all-rounder kind of bike.

Looks straight out of Joe Bar Team. Looks like it's starting a stoppie while standing still, pretty much. I like it.

Best hippie reviewer on the planet 👍👍🇨🇦

Did they ever get rid of the piston slap that the 800 had? I had a F800ST. Hated that thing.

hello, the bike looks fast and sorted with the adjustable front forks, slicks and rear sets. I just didn't see a mention about the exhaust and what is used. There is always the Akrapovic and others for road use, but all seem a bit quiet. can someone send me info on the exhaust used for the cup racing?

Hope they release a road replica!

I would like to see this compete against the KTM 890r (circuit prep. bike) that would be a sick cup to race in!!

Mantap ❗✌🏻

Anyone know how the race stand spools were added? I've got a bone stock 2020 and would love to be able to use my paddock stand with spools, but don't see how to add them to the stock swingarm....

When does the race series start? I would be interested to ride one (retail version), few concerns about the parallel twin, is it a Rotax job, what's it like preferably from an average Joe who owns and rides one like the rest of us mortals on the road. It does look like a good way to get into the BM world, build quality, design, etc is v good, never owned a BM however have ridden, test rides, shorts hires etc, S1000RR, love the cruise control and it’s so easy to ride, K1200 from Melbourne to Phillip Island for the Superbikes, and GS1200 south island of NZ, with panniers, 2 garbage bags, one for my laptop, the other a few clothes, 1 garbage bag per pannier, i was a happy lad, bit more fairing protection would have been nice, but not as much as the K12, maybe a single R or Tuono for me, maybe a f900 with mid-size fairing, I’m a litre sports die-hard kind of ...

Who needs 200+ bhp to have fun, i certainly wouldn't 👍

I love the bike

I want this big Bug-Spoiler

I dislike noisy bikes for the sake of being noisy, but I love the sound that bike is making.

Dude what exhaust brand do you have on it?

Man, 270 crank twins sound oh so much than their regular 180 counterparts.

Anglesey Circuit, the northern hemisphere version of Phillip Island?

This is an awesome race series!

Next year BMW will be runnin

Hello, did someone knows where its possible to buy racing rear set ?

Would be curious for comparison with ktm duke 890r. When f900r was launched it got a lukewarm response. Ktm stole the show with 790.

I am now going to open all conversations by shouting "Anglesey ".

Don't know why but the poise and sound of this bike remind me of the KTM 890.... Looks like blinkin' good fun tho!!

Is the engine also made in the chinese loncin factory like the other f900’s?

what's the exhaust ?

I seem to remember in some of the earlier one-make series (Harley or Street Triple maybe?) that the organisers offered guest rides for some journalists - any chance of you making an appearance?

Are we going to be able to buy the rearsets and if yess where? Grts

I had to read that title a few times I don't think we got the F-R's here in the states

If only you could buy these for the street

have they used the old Husky Nuda motor? that was the f800 motor bored to 900 with a fancy crank. sounds like my old tuned Nuda which sounded epic and Thors hammer like.

Were those Michelin tires you were on?

What about tracks that have a maximum DB level for the exhausts. Sounds like it wouldn't qualify..?

I would like to see 360° crankshaft version of this engine BMW engine. This one doesn't sound that exiting to me. Old F800 sound was like a ton of bees were flying inside of the exhaust.

Yo Chris! How would this bike compare to the track modded Z900 you rode last year, on this same track?

In Germany

Ktm RC 8C

Wish ALL racing was like this....should be about skill and talent not the bank balance...but yeah, I live in f@ckin cuckoo land lol

A track bike shouldn’t be loud, and many circuits won’t accept it. I’d say Loud is out

The NUDA lives!

Modern day CB500?

Ga seneng aku nek ga ono fairing depan e

The bike is slow, no matter how hard you are trying to say the opposite. Loud yes but not in par performance wise with Duke, Yamaha MT-09 SP or a Ducati.

Hey the new NUDA!!☺☺. Bmw husqvarna marriage 2012 to 2013

Naked ga terlalu suka jujur

Iyoo iyooo lho ya awohh 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

Sounds awful

Sounds like shit! Why?

I hope it's going to be good for British moto racing. It seems there's already a lot of interest, I hope young riders can benefit.
