How does this compare with the CBR650R? Power, riding position, etc?

What kind of gloves were you rocking?

I M 100% SURE NOBODY WANT S TO WATCH 33 MIN VIDEO

@@darkmagician2730 Take your ritalin and enjoy the video.

@@lovelessissimo i m not watching , it is waste

@@CoreyBrass It's usually okay but if a native speaker does it, it's kinda wrong. It's so elementary.

Four guys that epitomise a love of bikes, Zac and Ari in the US, and Fagan and Chris (AKA Baron Von Grumble)....

I dont know about you but I think a jump test is absolutely appropriate

Real life biking for a change, no paid for demo (holidays) by manufacturers…

And does wheelies in the rain ! Lol

There is a huge flaw. You cannot keep the rear seat off! The rear seat is what helps lock the riders seat!

Of course he's a good host. He pretty much created the concept

@@maximus9401 good to hear you and me have the same opinion

@@Josh-cw8by thank you

Definitely NOT a what I expected for a professional bike reviewer - BUT, the more I watch & listen... The MORE I LEARN! Thanks Zack! 👍🙏🏻😁😎

@William Taittinger Sure .... & Govt doesn’t Lie; Freedom is Slavery; Truth is NOT; OBEY; ... 😎🤙🏻

For real, nothing beats the Aprilia V4, beautifully harmonic and aggressive at the same time

@@factoryrider9537 I agree, but seems like we are a bit pre opinionated 🤔

@@tuono.thierry you got every right though lol. I like twins but even I can't get over how that v4 sounds. It sounds wrong, but sounds right, ya know?

VFR 800 sounds as good

Its already been settled that an r6 approaching redline is the best sound ever.

This 👆

Steven Devereaux tf u mean “this”?

yea like a mini vlog picking up the bike, the tests that they do, how long they have the bike for, might be a long video though 🤣

Bruh how much time do you have, this is already a raw enough footage

@massimohack1367 CBR650R and RS660 are in the same price range sadly. I was debating between the two for months before i settled on the CBR. Nothing beats that i4 sound.

​@@GunflameWhat ? The Honda is less than 10k and the Aprilia is close to 12k. They're not even close on price lol

@@alexv5581 cbr was 10.5k after everything said and done. RS660 was 12.2, not that huge a difference IMO and you get much more bike with the RS. I sold my CBR to my friend and grabbed one.

@@Gunflameso you changed your mind and got the RS? Do you like it better?

@@Nonexistent222 I sold my CBR to my brother and got the RS. Honestly, I miss my CBR but the RS660 is the better bike in everything except sound and riding position.

I agree and I have also "ridden in a lot of rain storms", but mine were mostly on the Interstates, whilst he's going thru city traffic 'nicely'.

Also did it at 4:36

The reviewer on the old motorcyclist channel has a unique skill. He can make the most exciting bikes come across as boring. I haven’t watched a single one beyond the 10 minute mark since

It is not a standard requirement to have in EU, but the big companies in Europe love to adopt it as it greatly increases safety

Hard to do in Southern California

@Rudy Conrad Yeh it is superior in power, tech, looks and sound. I was looking at it based on a commute purpose where it's better then the mt03 while the yamaha does have a bit more advantage in probably being a bit more nimble and light for the city and being way cheaper, is where I was coming from

lol 😆

Just finished the same dance

True!

@Last_Raven My comment was stating that the 600’s used to be more sensible and cheaper. And 600’s did not have electronics back then because they did not exist. The 600’s of the 90’s and early 2000’s were still cooler than these new middleweight bikes. Screaming inline 4 will always be cooler than a parallel twin.

@Last_Raven it’s is not a sports bike with slightly more budget components and slightly more comfortable riding position that a liter bike, ohhh wait that’s exactly what it is. It is very similar to a CBR600 from the late 80’s through the 90’s.

@Last_Raven yeah sure. Everyone hated all sports bikes until the fireblade. They never sold a single one. And this Aprilia in no way captures the spirit of the 600 super sport bikes.

@Last_Raven they sold because many people liked them. They sold after the fireblade because many people liked them. And more people buy cars because many people want high tech and purchase cars because of it not in spite of it. I like how you take a sub section of people and apply their tastes to every human on earth. The fact is 600’s became too focused, to expensive and too impractical. But most people are going to buy the most cutting edge bike because people want what they perceive as the best. Now some manufacturers like Aprilia are coming back to more practical, livable and cost effective sport bikes, just like the first 20 years of the 600 class. I myself find the 4 cylinder 600’s more intriguing than these parallel twins because an inline 4 is more special . I think bikes like the CBR600 F4 were the sweet spot in middle weight sort bike design. Those bikes also looked cooler than modern sport bikes. Whatever, ride what you have and have fun Last_Raven.

@Last_Raven everyone who mattered ? Hahaha ok. Wow you have a twisted view of the world. I always wanted to try a hyabusa or ZX-14, I guess that means I don’t matter.

You have short legs, avg in seam for 5'10 plus is 32'

How do you like the bike? Can you name something that you wish could be better?

@@touchles2007 Hey Dan! I'm 6 months in and I love this bike. Put 3400 miles so far. As for something I wish could be better.... that's very tough. The bike has everything that fits my needs so nothing really stands out. There's that known flat spot around 5k rpm in second gear. I've learned to get around it by sifting into second on higher 1st gear rpms. That will get fixed once I get an exhaust with custom mapping.

@@johnny_cash7588 thanks for your help. I’ve already started looking for one at my local dealership.

This is far more nimble then an F4i, and way nicer to ride. I just sold my 03 RR

I’m actually getting rid of my f4i for an rs660. Can’t wait!

I guess you gotta be more careful when it rarely rains because the road is fuller with dust and oil, maybe also less made to evacuate water well. I've ridden more under the rain then under the sun personally because I'm getting my license in The Netherlands have started before winter so that's gonna be a nice change when I have my bike and license this summer eheh His riding on the highway and the way people drive fucking stressed me tho, everyone just in a random lane, trucks on a left lane sometimes, him changing lanes just like that and passing to the right... I def don't want to live in the US just for that and Europe's roads and drivers seem more than fine when I see that lol
