On my recent short-ride to Temghar backwater, I had a chance to marvel at you just doing your thing! I was cruising along and glanced you alongside with who I think was Aravind, I initially thought it was someone else but this video just clears it all! Looking forward to see you again sometime soon! Kudos

It's about 80% as fast as a proper superbike, but on our roads, it's significantly more versatile and comfortable than one. The one bike that actually makes you wonder whether it's even worth buying a superbike if you're only going to use it on public roads. Great video as always, Sarge. 👊✊😎

Bloody hell! I purchased a 2022 1000sx a few months back and KZfaq is suggesting this one as I've watched all of them. But I have NEVER seen a review done so well, so professionally, with such incredible cinematography, presentation and editing. I mean this could, and really SHOULD be used in part for the SX advertising footage. It's almost.... beautiful! Honestly well done this is superb work. And your factual coverage is superb. Not a single disagreement from me now owning one. Got a sub from me. Now I have to go and watch your other ones!!

You just gained a new subscriber in the USA. You gave a great review with real world riding in it. I look forward to viewing your archives and new videos. I have a ZX-10R myself, but at some point, I might be getting a sports tourer to take the tension off my wrists and shoulders.

We bumped in at palolem over breakfast and instantly felt that crazy enthusiasm you possess to discuss any topic related to motorcycles..its really admirable.As a ninja 1000 owner i can safely say that this has been the most informative..thrilling..honest and dramatic ninja 1000 review ever done...kudos to you and the living it up team.

It is a different feeling watching your videos. You just have the magical ability to conquer your viewers full attention throughout the video. I can definitely say that every video of yours has not just been made for the sake of posting it on KZfaq but instead a lot of planning and story-lining goes into it which is appealing to the me. I have stopped watching other review channels simply because this channel has it all. Right from the narration to the quality of videos, it has the right amount of everything. And as somebody mentioned it is easy to find a fault in the bikes but in contrast it’s difficult to find faults in your videos…lol I love this channel and I really love your content Sagar.

Every time I watch Sarge, I feel like writing something that accurately describes the impecabble videography, review and the legend himself but I run out of words every single time. So I would just say, It's been years watching you and it's always a day 1 excitement.. Huge admirer Sir ! 🫂

It's much easier to find fault in Ninja than to find fault in your videos.. They're always perfect Sarge! 😀 You've rekindled my liter class tourer dream which I had successfully suppressed for past 2 years..

Most underrated moto journalist. Don't know why people are not subscribing to your channel. In terms of video shoot, camera angles, editing, your riding skills, the way you describe the goods and the bad. Your are on the ULTRA PRO MAX level. Absolutely love your videos.

Your video echoes the same thoughts which run through my mind every time I ride my Ninja 1000 !!!! even after 4 and half years , it makes me fall in love with my "Goblin" all over again !!! And as always amazing video Sarge !!!

Good to have you back, been a fan of your work since your video on Desert Sled (which I still watch). More power to you!

Hello! This was a great review with some excellent and funny descriptions that perfectly capture what you're talking about and relate to real-world riding issues. I'm based in the UK but I'm now a subscriber!

also ive owned a 2010 z1000 for years and id never trade it for any other street bike. for 13 years now this platform has been one of the best street oriented sporty machines available no matter what the magazines say

Got this bike exactly a week ago . Sarge, every single word you said in this review is exactly how I would sum up Cyclotron. Delighted that I made the right choice. Below are couple of points in addition to what Sarge mentioned in this review. Please note that I won't repeat all the great positives that Sarge mentioned in the video. 1. I think I am gonna keep watching this review every night before going to bed. 2. Fuel range ranges between 280 to 340 depending on the speed one tours in. Below 139 its usually around 20+. Above 140 it drops to about 17. In bumper to bumper traffic it can further drop down to 10 kmpl. 3. This bike made me unlearn what touring is thanks to its brilliant quick shifter and cruise control. BTW, the cruise control activates only after 2K RPM in 4th, 5th and 6th. Cruise control works between 39 kmph to 143 kmph. Quick shifter is best used above 2.5K RPM for those smooth upshifts. 4. The stock headlights are really great as far as intensity of light and throw are concerned. Definitely needs a slight mod there. 5. The ex showroom price is 11.8 lakh and not 12.8 lakh. 6. While this is a sports tourer, thanks to its 6 axis IMU, it also has a lean angle sensor which is super cool IMO. 7. Its loaded with several buttons on the left. While riding in the dark, I accidentally pressed a wrong button most of the time. Wish it had back lit switches. 8. As far as looks are concerned, I personally don't like the design of the silencer. While I am absolutely fine with having just one can, the shape of it could have been way better than its current form. 9. The bike is so smooth that sometimes I felt like I am riding an electric bike. 10. As always, Sarge made yet another beautiful video of another beautiful machine. P.S. - Most of the points mentioned above are basis my experience of riding it for 1200 KMs in the week gone by.

Sagar its always a good day when I watch your reviews! Keep it up man! Hands down one of the best motorcycle reviewers in the world. Good job to the man behind the camera and editors as well. Its nothing less than a short glorifying cinematic movie.

I own a 2021 ninja 1000 sx and you hit the nail on the head with every pro and con. Very thorough review!!

I feel professional touch on videography, editing & presentation! It's upon the mark among some of the highly recognised vehicle reviewers in india. I exactly know where you study all those from😉. Great video, loved it ❤️

Thought of recalling a chat with a friend that said,"I saw a Dyno chart many years ago in a magazine. Till approx. 8000 RPM Ninja 1000 made more power and torque than all the racing 1000 cc, including BMW S1000RR. The writer said that due to this even if the Ninja makes only 135BHP (now it makes 150), it is quicker and faster than all other race bikes in most of street riding, unless you were racing and that super sports people are always surprised how quickly it accelerates from stop lights." Even without going into the details it is evident that Ninja 1000 is a hell of a bang-for-the buck proposition in this segment and will remain the same for years to come! Appreciate your making as always!

I am one of the significant contributor towards the 1L views this great vlog of yours garnered 😊. I sincerely was looking up for your review on this machine, and was jumping in joy as its all out positive (almost) - was planning to go for one very shortly. Congratulations on 1L views Sagar. Wishing every video from here on hits this number and more! 👍

I bought my versys after your versys video and these days ride a ninja 1000. Glad I got back into this hobby after a bad crash a decade back. Thanks to you and the support from ym wife. Keep up the content...keeps us lesser mortals motivated as life happens to us.

Awesome cinematic experience!!! I dream of owning this one cuz it has everything I ask in a motorcycle. power, torque, comfort, equipment and comfort. The ground clearance is the same as my thunderbird 500 (sorry to compare but still.,:)) My only question is will it hold on with a pillion on broken roads with that clearance?

Can vouch for this. Got my Ninja 1000 in 2019, and it has been the best decision. A huge upgrade from my previous ride too i.e. Harley Davidson Iron 883, which was a nightmare to ride.

From one spec to another you travel as if on an expressway.. absolutely no hiccups and so seamlessly integrated. Enjoyed every bit of it..❤

Your videos are so crisp that at 2:39 there is a piece of string on the seat.. Got me thinking for a sec that this could be removed.. Every video you and your team just level up in viewer experience... Kudos to your team man for this amazing work that they do... Do share this with them.. 👍👍👍

Always a fan of good gear ratios.. makes for a relaxed ride.. and if you are vigilant you can maintain the revs where you feel happy.. comfortable .. or want to hear the engine. Kawi always does smart things for affordable price bands..

Big fan sir! You're just amazing 💕 Love your videos sir, The review of zx10r had made my more obsessed towards it 😅 You're literally a legend sir🌟

Yes, did remind me of your Versys 650 review.. (which still remains the best amongst all reviews ever...). With this review what you've done is out-done your self as Sagar Sheldekar Official! Keep the content coming man! And a gentle reminder for that Tiger Sport vs Versys 650 comparo..

Great review as always. Looking forward to see the RE scram411 review soon.

I own 1000SX, can't see any other bike with same value for money in market. As mentioned, weight and ground clearance are the major issue for me but still it has lot of good things to ignore the cons. Very nicely shot videos..truly enjoyed relating myself as your narrate your ride.

I have the previous version, its amazing. Does everything you want. Cruising at 120 mph is a breeze.

First video that I have watched from you and it is excellent. I have watched a good number of bike reviews and yours are stellar. Even more props for all of the wheelies!!

Needless to say your reviews on a bike are what we always look up for, as they are as on spot, precise and immaculate as it can get!!!!!

I have always felt that 1000 SX is a sophisticated package in a "humble" form factor. The best thing about this bike is I feel that it gets almost all the basics right. Also, I feel that Kawasaki could give this bike a little more "character" which would help it to stand out from the rest of the crowd because from a price-to-performance standpoint, this is one absolute banger of a motrocycle. This coming from an owner of a Ninja 650 (so might be biased as well). 😁

I’ve always loved this motorcycle from the day I knew of its existence. I’ve been chasing this since the time I let go of the Ninja 650. Sarge, your video of the versys 650 almost made me go and book that bike but then the heart wants what it wants. Like the joker says ‘Madness is like gravity, all it takes is a little push’ and boy this review is one heck of a push!

Hey Sarge, love this one as with all others! Noticed something out of place on the bike- the tires. The BS6 ninja 1000sx comes equipped with the Bridgestone battlax hypersport S22s; this one however has those OEM Dunlop sportmax 2s which are seen on some of kawasaki's more budget friendly options. Wonder why that is and if that had a negative impact on the machine(if any). Keep up the lovely work and keep churning out that content we love so much❤️.

Beautiful, comforting and thrilling at the same time. Its just amazing how you manage to do that everytime. Kudos to you and your team. Thanks Sarge.

Tamhini, Mulshi, Lavasa epic scenes! This purely gave the evergreen Versys 650 review vibes😍 This sports tourer is purely S(e)X!

Great camerawork as always , especially the ones of the ride. You find some amazing places to shoot these rides.which is this place , would love to ride in upcoming monsoon

Lovely video Sarg !! Just love the way you guys shoot the video.... the cinematography is just 🔥

Loved It. So beautiful to watch. Great work by Sarge and the whole team. Keep Going. i also wish for the review of Z900 too. I'm sure that will happen.

immediately subbed, awesome production and beautiful video dude. so refreshing to watch

Sagar sir..its always pleasure to watch your vidoes since my childhood... pls bring out more touring videos like this..

What a Review!! I am short of words how well the video has been made and composed. Perfection at it's best!

Most of the frames can be used as a wallpaper, watching it after a long time once again after the release of the video, not boring at all, always interesting review

Sagar ! 3 years ago, i had seen your video on Z650, which inclined me to get one.. and boy what a time i had with that hooligan machine. Now i ride a Ninja 1000 and i happen to see this video today and I can do nothing but affirmatively smile down onto the screen as you jot down almost all of the points of this beast of a motorcycle. Kudos to Kawasaki for the entire line-up in India they offer for all types of motorcyclist out here and do that in style.. As a sport tourer, a segment which doesn't offer too many options in India.. this motorcycle offer so much, from its nimbleness to absolute raw power, and ever reliable Kawasaki factor.. it has it all. And thank you so much for the out of heart and out of bound experiences which you share with these films, it makes them much more than a 'review video', it helps hundreds and thousands like me to dream and to reach out to them. Thank you Sarge.

Impeccable and outstanding review as always. Even a non-motorcycle enthusiast would love to watch your flawless explanation....kudos to the top notch videography too....content worth spreading..

Had been waiting for this upload since your Instagram post. Always loved the Ninja 1000 for its balanced liter class nature and great video as always. BTW I hope to see The new Versys 1000 review soon 🙂

I'm in love with Sagars voice and the way he narrates ,he is awesome ,one of the best in KZfaq for reviewing bikes.Hes insanely awesome.

I am such a big fan of both of you the ninja 1000sx and your presentation skills, this is the coolest review i have seen for this Japanese mothership. Keep up the good work. I have been following you from the days you were at powerdrift

You are an awesome story teller... And when u tell that story of the motorcycle you ride... I reach my dream world... Kudos to you... Big fan of you. Ninja 1k has always been one of the best machine from Kawa stables... No doubts they haven't changed the engine since almost a decade now.

Sometimes i just come here for Sagar sir's narration, the pure joy of just listening nd knowing about the machines that are so close our to our hearts..its just uplifting nd motivating..thanks for creating such amazing pieces.

Power pact review ...ITs always fascinating how the pros & cons are presented in an unbiased way.. loved.. it..

Great content, awesome informative review too, keep it up! I subbed halfway through the video

By far the best review of the 1000SX. Stumbled upon your video by chance and glad I did. Well done.

Again, always love how every review is a complete mix of proper city riding with emphasis on engine heat and gearing which is sorely missed point. All the fast pace action along with focus on slow speed riding is what makes reviews stand out and you make it look easy. Request - TRIDENT 660 review and a video on earplugs and any affordable options cuz many people miss this important piece of protection

Man the narrative. It's mind-blowing 👌. You've been tailor made to do this sarge.

Another smashing review, keep up the good work mate !!

I haven't seen a review video this good. Quality of the video is superb 🔥

I am really impressed by the way you articulate and present the facts and opinions, plus the videography. Ninja 1000 is another story. Keep rocking!!

I can't say how many times I have watched this video. I find it really relevant for someone who loves touring and for someone who loves a sports bike. Hoping that Kawasaki releases its updated version soon in India! And I am going for it when they do! :) Thank you for the amazing content that you deliver us Sagar!

Excellent video!!! I love the cinematography.

As always, lovely video Sagar. It's a delight to watch them. More than the bike, it is the way you make these area treat for the eyes and ears. The bike is no doubt wonderful despite the few niggles.

Sagar bro's Kawasaki Ninja 300 review in with co host Ten Hut and the Powerdrift team nearly 6 years ago is what inspires me still inspirting when i watch Sarge's Ninja reviews now here in Livin It Up! Thanks sarge .. God Bless YOu, ur new Livin It Up team and keep it up!

Really great video the music, narration, visuals everything is perfect. 👍👍

Damn ...crazy video bro ...keep doing great work...

Ahh, the old format 🤗 I like it. 🥰

Nice one 👌 Good job Sagar 💐👍 pulling in 6th gear at 1.4K RPM is something to be noted. You mentioned Terminal Velocity which is the vector, there is a magnitude but please mention the direction as well 😊 where you had gone 😜

Your reviews are incomparable! .. Kudos to video grapher's skills too!

U know it's a quality content when Sagar dada is hosting it 👌👌

What a making, superb 🔥🔥 BTW Ninja's saree guard reminded me that a vertical garden frame fitted on a motorcycle 😭

Take a bow sir if I had seen your videos as a teen I would have tried to become an auto journalist instead of clearing my medical entrance.Its a pleasure to watch ur videos after a long hospital duty...

Big fan of you sir. Love your videos. Hope someday you visit Meghalaya with your favourite ride.

Always , always and always - whenever KZfaq notifies about your video - first thing - like, save and then watch the video at ease, and go on, whenever I need a break from work. Superb as always, of course the reviews are crisp and just what we would like to know about the bike. Kudos to the efforts put by the whole team to make an awesome video. Just a request - please also mention or write about the locations - we would also like to explore 😁🍻

That was a great review on a motorcycle I have ever watch, I am a z1000sx rider my self and yes i love the bike... looking forward to seeing more of your bike reviews. Subscribing now to see more. Cheers my bro

The feel is everything what we get from your vids ❤️

Great visuals and great storytelling, as usual.

Amazing 🤩 ( like usually) just need to know if S1000GT from Suzuki is avalieble y Asia and like to see your review soon . Thanks for another awesome video Sagar.. Best Wishes from Spain

I bought Suzuki gixxer seeing your review, you add emotion to every review. Love to see you grow more successful.

Watched the review 5-6 times now...and booked the bike. Thank you for the amazing work. ❤

The bgm that you use in your videos are so engaging especially at the end of the video. Excellent quality of videos. Please do share the bgms that you use or your own playlist . Great review for a great monster

As always amazing content Sir just loved it ❤️

Bro , I'm from Bangladesh and I like your videos. I think you got the coolest job in the world. Keep it up for us....

Very perfect review... A flagship.... review video... Keep it up...boss

Brilliant video serge. Is this the road from varandha ghat towards bhor ? Covered it 2years back .. beautiful place.

your videos are like a movie . love the reviews and cinematography.

Thank you Sarge for the video. Worth the wait.

Man......ur cinematography is damm 😍😍......always gives me chills

Finally the legend has spoken which we the owners of Ninja 1000SX waited for so long! You are the best, love you Sarge.

I watch this video . Again and again don't why ... More than 500 times i watch it .. still love to watch again.. favourite ever 💝🎄🎄

Amazing video and an amazing bike. Waiting for your review on the 2022 Suzuki GSX-S1000GT.

What a superb review..the oem Bridgestones on my 2019 bike sucked..I switched to pirelli angel gt2s..and they are magical, especially in the corners

The moment I switch on to your videos, Sarge , believe me, my eyes blurr and , whenever you say words like "face melting fast on a straight" I just live those moments as of my own.

I was proud of my Ninja1000 that I pampered myself as a new year gift this year, I am now even prouder after seeing your video, thanks buddy!

I really love watching your videos sarge 🙌 You just make it easier to understand

I have the same exact trim for my 2022 Ninja 1000SX and same exact thoughts Sarge!! I felt like You and I were talking at the same time. I found the blipper to work best when you are rolling down the throttle and then downshifting, but yes, it's not as slick and smooth as the quickshifter. The quickshifter shifts like a dream. I have the same exact thoughts on the menu and the bluetooth connectivity too. Another bumer is that though there's a mounting niche for a USB port, but the port itself is an additional accessory rather than a factory fitted equipment.

Finally 🔥. Was Waiting for this Video 😍

Awsome as usual dada👌Do visit Mizoram. Will explore wid you😇🙏

Gosh have i missed Sarge and his reviews ! 🔥❤

This is my dreambike from Kawasaki it looks stunning look practical to our roads ..thank you sagar...great review

Very nicely done - beautiful countryside too.
