Nice to hear you’re enjoying it! It’s one of the best bikes on the market imo. Great choice

What one can say about the keyless feature? I believe this is not a down side in any matter right? I’m curious

I’m willing to buy it. Do you believe your bike gets too hot? What about vibration? I own a Ducati monster 937 and it get really hot really fast and vibrates a lot, so I don’t want to make the same “mistake” again

First experience of keyless and after listening to others trash it I thought I wasn’t going to get on with it, how wrong I was, now I have fitted the quarter turn fuel cap I love it, I put the key in my jacket pocket zip it up before I leave the house and forget it, the bike is quite buzzy but no worse than the S1000 I owned and I wouldn’t say it runs over hot .

Which fuel cap did you purchase, please?

It was definitely an experience 😂

Haha cheers man. I try! Keep up with the vitamins and you’ll be back in no time 😅

@@BikeLikeMike92 Haha I have been but the brake was very complicated so it’s taking it’s time to heal the doctor said it could take a year I basically crushed my leg had I really bad accident

At least you still have it! Best of luck getting back to full send mode ✊🏼

The M1000r competition starts at £25000 ish but you can put a lot more into them you fancy a full titanium exhaust and what have you.. well worth it though best bike on the market.. love it!!

Totally agree!

Awesome! Good luck, you will be the enthusiastic one soon! 😅

1250r would probably suit you if you’re after that comfort with some punch. I don’t think the m is a snarling dog, I think it’s pretty good and easy when riding slow - it can be a real Cerberus though if you want it to be.

@@BikeLikeMike92 Thanks for the input. The only thing against the 1250R is that it's not exactly light and I'm quite small, but I am interested because I remember thinking about the S1000RR that things happened almost quicker than I could think. I shouldn't have mentioned the M/ S1000 in the same sentence as the old Superduke really (I knew within a minute that it was horrendous in terms of power delivery and just couldn't do slow or smooth), but you mentioning vibes on the M does surprise me. I say that because I seem to remember that the generation of S1000RR that I rode had some kind-of weird engine imbalance thing going-on, where numerous owners claimed that the bike would drift towards the left, and I'm here to try and find-out if an updated engine and chassis fixed all that. Ultimately, I'm probably getting too old for these 200bhp 4's if I'm honest, but I still like the idea for thrills!

Thanks very much 🙌🏼 I’ve heard the S1000XR is a great bike! Might be reviewing one next year so will look forward to that!

@@BikeLikeMike92 mmmm I wouldn’t call it “ great” it’s just like the S1000 , nothing exciting but it’s a good alrounder , the M1000XR will be good though 👍🏾✔️

@@Cartsp70what would you call special? Geeze carbon everywhere 438lbs 210hp loaded with the latest technology heated grips cruise control up/down QSftr extremely fantastic brakes if not the best on the market Great looking…, yeah I agree with you it’s nothing special :).., that’s why it’s sitting in my garage Greetings from Texas :)

😂 pretty true!

My brain tells me BMW, but my heart tells me Ducati. I’ve always been a heart kinda guy. Otherwise you’ll regret not getting the bike you really wanted, even if it’s not the practical choice. Ducati

@@BikeLikeMike92 yeah agree :)

One of few standard firing inline 4 bikes which got me this excited 🤯

Bargain right!? 😅

If you find your speed rapid, then the M1000r is going to be mental for you. The dealer did say to me that the s1000r seems to be the choice of many who think 200bhp naked bikes are just a little too much and why BMW may have kept it in the line up. Which I completely understand, especially on the road. It’s honestly nuts. Give both a try would be my suggestion. Both great bikes.

You won’t be disappointed with the S1000r I had a gen one and I loved it, and the latest S1000r’s are even better 👍

Test rode one this week whilst my gsa was in for service. What a machine plush in comparison to my speed triple although probably not a fair comparison. Suspension was excellent I even thought at one point this could be my only bike but my wife may disagree. Smooth engine with power throughout the rev range. Gear box with the quick shifter was as plush as you like. I’m on the hunt for one now 👌

Well, you’re on a bike which already has a very strong mid range… and the V4s although more power I think makes similar torque to the Tuono. The BMW has less torque, but peaks up high. I found the M1000r plenty torquey but it’s mid is probably not far from your current bike. I found it mental up high… as you can probs tell 😂. The valve tech in the beemer is miles away from the s1000r. Best advice would be to try it too… see what you think. You can’t really go wrong if they are the two bikes you’re looking at.

@BikeLikeMike92 I've heard that the power is cut down in the lower gears on the V4S and from my riding experience it seams true.

Try the SDR 💪🏼

@daveo9844 I've heard the SDR runs not so smooth in low rev range. It's already kind of annoying on my Tuono V4 to drive in lower rpm.

@@ronnyweinreich9425 Gen 3 is pretty good but nothing like an in-line 4 for smoothness down low.

heavy af

@@Supernova12034 have you ridden one ? I’ve only sat on one in the showroom it felt ok tbh but need to ride one on the road

H2 SX is a heavy bike. can really feel it when trying till stop or slow for corners. I had mine flashed an its a brilliant Tourer. endless amounts of power. Ended up buying one of these M1000R last month can't wait till try it out..

@@stephenscott6320 oh no I meant the SE H2 not the tourer

@@Cartsp70 I know this is an old comment, but the SX is the tourer version of the bike. There's also the Z-H2, which is the naked sportbike version, and of course the normal H2 Supersport (or H2-R for the track). SE is just a designation they use for a certain spec on all of those above versions as far as I know, meaning which options it's equipped

😅

he was caught up in the "testetingle" moment. ;-). The top of the rev range (over 9000 or so) makes that motor go 100% insane.

I think the H2 is much faster than this but it’s 240kg , I wonder which bike is better the BMW or the H2 Kawasaki 🤷🏾

@@Cartsp70 bmw is wayyyyy better than

They are the price for “slightly insane”

😅

Coppers will be stopping you too 😅

Absolutely 😂

🤣

Ride one if you haven’t already I used to own a brand new MT10 but the MR Competition package is not only a stunning bike but savage as well when you want it to be:) I think you will love it -go for a test drive and see for yourself have a great day and ride safe

🫣

I agree. I think they make the bikes look worse. Useful on track perhaps! But who’s to moan, its not my bike after all ✌️

Each to there own, I think they look great and make it stand out from the crowd. Nice when you look down and see them, Makes you know you're riding something special.
