Strait handle bar on the sv1000s ? Seriously ?

4:15 anyone with a bit of taste would get rid of those indicators pretty quickly 😊

1:38 oh they will 🤨

Ive had my black one 14 years. Still love it. However my F1 or fault indicator light is on. Did a diagnostic and it is the secondary butterfly motor that needs a bit of solder on it. Apparently a common fault. Nice video.

Love your honesty stands for a lot now days keep doing the videos 👍

Its surprising how slow you can ride this fast bike might aswell be on a 50cc

Further to your comparison of the number of views for different videos - I imagine more people watch some love island or dancing nonsense than would watch a moon landing if it broadcast now. It's not you, it's the state of humans now. I'd rather watch your videos 😉

❤👍

Ive had mine for 16 years , cant find anytime that come near it for vomfort speed plus nearly 200 miles out of one tank . Race it through the fears or just stick it in 6th at 1500 revs & open itup & it just pulls & pulls . Its a keeper.

Really no need to pay for the extra high end fuel - most bikes and certainly Japanese stuff is actually designed to run on 87 octane (91RON) fuel with a min of 10% ethanol There isn't a UK only map where 98RON is going to give you oodles of extra power and extend the life of the bike by 50 years; it really is pointless Putting anything else in is simply a waste of your money - you're not protecting anything However, if it makes you happy then I can't imagine Shell shareholders will complain

Those mirrors are very rectangular. You need to post a video "I taught my 4 months old puppy to ride my GSX1400 motorcycle." You would get 5M views by lunchtime on the day of release.

Great onest owner review!

Nice vid, nice bike mate. Paid 5K for mine 4 years ago (with 17 thou on the clock, now at 27) like to think i would get most of that back IF i ever sold it, but not planning on it. Its just too good a bike and so much fun to ride.

Awesome Bike....Great video 😁

You sound like a Minecraft KZfaqr

Recently purchased a 2010 1500 diesel. Plenty of punch. One or two small annoying features, but overall an excellent buy...

Thank you very much for your very good demonstration of the Topdon BT100. However your Battery problem is likely due to the fact that your battery which has a manufactures CCA rating of only 330 CCA seem like a very low CCA rating for a battery for your RAV4. I would have thought you might have needed a battery with a rating of at least 500 CCA. I always recommend that a battery in a car that does short trips, needs to be fully charged regularly with a battery charger. As it does takes more time than most people realise to recharge a battery from the alternator. So using a car for very short trips will not always keep a battery in good condition.

Too much waffle and not much information. Also way too subjective opinion on silly rubbish.

If talk about being old, I swear that I will not look out for your videos ever again. I am in my mid seventies and when I’m riding any motorcycle I still feel like a young man. Just get over your self and ride it like you stole it and bloody well think your self lucky that you are still able to get on a motor cycle and enjoy what time you have left. Stop being so damed negative. Just get on with it. M J W

Agree 100% with your observations and thoughts on the 1200RS. As you know I bought a 1050RS instead with the chocolate gearbox. 3rd and 4th gears failed but it was eventually rebuilt by a Triumph dealer at great expense and is now fine, but like you I don't think I shall keep it. I'll sell it on start of next year having owned it for 4 years. Glad I owned one although it's not been a joyous experience that I hoped it would owing to the gearbox and in difference from the dealer Laguna I bought it from. As you say is it worth £10k of fun when you can probably get just as much fun on a bike half or a third of the cost? I have just as much fun riding my VFR800 6th gen which although only has 108bhp cost me a fraction of the price of my Speed Triple 1050RS at 148bhp and a lot lighter, but my VFR I can go touring on as I have a full set of Honda luggage for it. The VFR gearbox is slick and sweet, it handles great, is not a rock hard ride, it starts and stops every time and sounds sweet with Staintune exhausts. I love it. The other thing with the 1200RS, the one I rode as a demo for an hour or so, the engine only really came alive at or above 8k revs and then it flew but you would then be riding at license or life losing speeds on public roads so totally pointless really. It's moderately fast short shifting up through the box up to say 5-6k but then you are only using 50% of the power. The top end is where the power is on the 1200RS. To get the most out of it you really have to take it on track. Just wish they had given the 1200RS electronic suspension rather than the fugly 1200RR or indeed the 1050RS and redesigned the gearbox as well! Triumph make some baffling decisions imho much more so than other bike manufacturers. I think your comparison of it with a Street Triple 765RS is pretty spot on. The 1200RS I rode turned and dropped into corners so easily just like it's smaller cc brother Street Triple 765RS. It was hard to believe I was riding a 1200cc bike. The new 2024 ST 765 RS is very tempting but I cannot afford to drop that kind of money again on a new bike and then take the depreciation hit. No way. Have you had a BMW S1000R pass through your hands? That't a bike I really fancied before I got my Speed RS but the 2019 bike I rode suffered from severe vibes through the bars and foot pegs. I tried a SDR 1290 Gen 3 and that was awesome. Loved it, firm but comfortable suspension, great electronics package and TFT dash, fabulous engine, but it was just too bonkers fast for the roads. You'd either lose your license or life in the first morning. I was tempted by a Tuono 1100 Factory but didn't like the tiny TFT and lack of fuel gauge plus the guy at my local dealer selling them, won't name them this time, was a complete w anchor. So that was a non starter for me. I have considered Ducatis from time to time, Multistradas. I am sure they are great bikes, but the servicing costs terrify me. I have had my fingers burned in the past with Italian cars. Don't really want to repeat it with Italian bikes. Plus I am quite short and Multistradas seem quite tall to me. Also there isn't a Ducati dealer near me. So on reflection they are not really an option for me. So many bikes good bikes now. There aren't any real duds these days, just ones that perhaps don't match your own requirements. Thanks for your review. Sorry for the essay. ATB.

Got a 2012 automatic Hyundai i30 as my first car 3 days ago and it’s so nice to drive 😊❤

A nice muscle bike. It always was. :) They say that it is more comfortable than the CB1300. I never tried it.

This is still today a vey good looking bike. Nice video bro.

Couldn't be much further away in Hull! You can go much further than that mate. You should look at a map of the British Isles......just saying.

Regarding the auto cancel on the indicators, if you short press the indicator switch they cancel quickly and if you hold the switch a fraction longer they take alot longer to auto cancel.

just bought one for 850 euro, it has 115k km aka +/-70k miles on the odometer, it is probably a good thing i used to be a Triumph mechanic :)

I have just bought the Street triple 765 RS 2024, and its amazing upgrade from the benelli leonchino 125cc, its bloody quick, amazing bike though for my first Full A license, also im a hobbit 5ft 4 its still tall for me lol

Have prices of these gone up? I’m seeing 05s for nearly £4k admittedly low ish miles, but they seem to be holding value or delusional sellers!

Good job 👍 am watching from West Africa 🌍

I've just turned 60 & had mine for about a year. The only problem I have is getting a sore right wrist after a while, but that's probably more down to my riding style than the bike. I've wound the suspension settings right back & it's not too bad on reasonable roads, but once I get out on the 100km/h country roads west of here (I live in Brisbane, AU) it's very harsh. I'm going to take it to the guy who set up my Streetfighter V2 suspension & see if there's anything we can do without having to look at spring rates, valving, etc... Re: gear vs speed - I find on mine that at 60km/h (~40mph) 4th is the highest gear I want to be in & I generally don't pull 5th until 80km/h (~50mph) & 6th until 100km/h (~60mph). My experience with the quick shifter is the opposite of yours - I find it super smooth regardless of whether I'm just pootling around or whether it's under hard acceleration. In comparison the quick shifter on my Streetfighter V2 was horrible. The only time it was smooth was when you were WOT accelerating. DO NOT buy the Chinese flyscreen! I got one for mine & right from the start I was concerned about the amount of flex in the bracket. As it turned out I was right to worry because on a subsequent trip out west, the bracket snapped in half in the middle of nowhere on day 2 of a 3 day ride & the display & flyscreen flopped over onto the bars. Luckily I was able to secure it until we got to a service station & bought some duct tape to properly secure it. I contacted the supplier & was told I'd need to pay $50 for a replacement bracket, so instead I repaired the broken one & reinforced it with metal plates - which worked really well until last weekend where it snapped again in a different place! I'm now going to order the genuine Triumph kit. At least if that one breaks I should be able to get some warranty support...

Agree that the Multistrada is probably THE 'unicorn bike'. I have a 1200s and it does everything brilliantly well. It's fast, cool, looks awesome AND is all-day comfortable. The only problem with the Multistrada is...Where do you go from there?! I had a Tiger 800 before, and when I swapped it for the Multi, it was like stepping off Ryanair and climbing aboard Concord. I've added a custom Sportster Forty Eight to the stable as it has more character than anything I've ever ridden and looks badass. Nowhere near as versatile as the Multi though.

As an old git, I just want a bike large or small, any bike as long as long as it's not a custom that I can ride for 30 miles or more before becoming a pain in the a**e.

Sounds like you just bought the wrong bike lol

16:10 Hi there, I bought this tail tidy for my 2017 T100. Did you have any problems with your number plate contacting the rear tyre going over bumps etc?? Curious to know your thoughts..... thanks 👍

Not sure what area your from but I have 1050r 2014 if you wanted to go for a ride and compare

I found the same with the quick shifter. Quite a slow, delayed shift and a bit of a lurch. Smooth gear lever under foot yeah but not a slick change.

Thanks for the review, its good to hear a broad spread of reviews as everyone is different. I'm 57 & have a 22 Tuono V4 non Factory & Speed Triple 1200RR. Loving both & extended the the warranty on both. When I get board I might convert the 1200RR to RS and have the electronic suspension without the harshness of the original RS. The quick shifter on the RR is seamless, even at 30mph.

Awesome review, really down to Earth with no BS! keep up the great work 😄

Love mine. I’m 60, 5’8” and find it super comfy and can and do ride it all day, especially with the cruise control allowing you to relax every now and then. My suspension was really stiff when I bought it but a five minute tweak to the Triumph manuals ‘comfort’ settings makes everything much more manageable

I'm on a aprilla tuono factory with the electric ohlins and its really comfortable ive also owned the 1200rs two years ago very stiff on bad roads but I liked the finish the looks, I do think the street triple rs is probably a better road bike , try the aprilla tuono it's pretty much perfect ❤

I wish that Yamaha would completely re style the MT10 as it is ugly. I also have had a few speed triples and I would stop at the last 1050 although I love the look of the 1200. You didn’t mention the Tuono as an alternative. That would be my choice in this genre.

I almost broke my head. Thank you for the video

Liskeard?

Have you ridden the new street triple? What do you think about the two?

Must have top box or panniers. What mount is onthis one?

Yes ala8rs are useless. Ignored

Can get a top box mount?

10:11 smother now with the new tarmac 😉

I have one a k6 black. Owned it for 14 years. 93 ft pounds of torque goes to 145mph pretty quick and have toured to Spain and Portugal. Mainly to Moto club Faro. Top bike. I do own a cruiser too for laid back stuff.
