2023 BMW S 1000 RR Onboard fun at Almeria.
It'd be nice if they made a 690 for us normal sized folk. My lack of skills means a paddle in the mud is inevitable
I'd love to hear your thoughts on comparison with the Triumph Speed 400, I can't decide between them!
ruclips.net/video/NezNgmeinp4/видео.html
@@Chad76Media Wha? That link is the 400 Scrambler review. I meant how you feel the Guerrilla compares with the Speed 400, proper head to head. Ah well.
@@specialcircs I’ve ridden both but not at the same time. I will be conducting a two bike group test shortly
Speed marginally better IMO. Ain't much in it though *Plough* 🎉
Whats with the seat heights being so small on these small cc bikes?! The triumphs are the same as well...
@@chr11sf they do a optional higher seat
i guess because most people use smaller cc bikes as commuters. and there are more shorter riders(whole of asia) than there are taller ones.
@@vkrishna0612 made mainly for Asian and Indian market
@@Chad76Media there is a test bike faired adv with the 650 engine doing rounds now
Hows it feel against the interceptor power-wise. Only about 8bhp more from the twin but being heavier......🤷♂️
I’ve actually not ridden the interceptor recently. I’d imagine torque is very different
This is the 3rd or 4th review i have seen from you on this bike 😂😂😂 Good job there all relatively comparative 😅
@@Steve-motorcycles love the Chad
Fun bike. 👍🤪🏳️🌈
First class Adam. Great video covering what we need, and the editing is brilliant. Thank you.
@@markwilliams8655 thanks man. Spread the word
I would buy the 1390 over the 990 due to build quality. However, the 1390 is less fun so in the end it won’t be a KTM for me.
Hi Chad, I love your motorcycle reviews and we have similar perspectives on motorcycles. I'm already 51 years old and what I would really like is an SMT version of this Duke 990. Do you know if KTM has any plans in this regard?
@@FranciscoMarvao I’ve not seen anything but it makes sense
I'll wait for the duke 990 R 🙂
At that price I’m sure they will sell however what a stupid name for that reason alone I would not buy it. Thanks Chad 👍
@@lestersmyth692 yeah unsure about the name
Imagine not buying a bike because of the name? 😂😂😂😂😂
@@mbal4052I do recall the early CB1000 being called “The Big One” 🤣 very few were initially sold hence Honda renamed it and strangely enough sales took off…..
Safe to say, we will see plenty of them out on the road.
Lots for that price
Already a debate in Colombia about the name-some aren't impressed
I think they might change the name is some locations .....
Geh ree yah
990 duke or 765RS ?
@@biker_marinator5696 really good question. They are so close but very different. Got a video coming soon about this
@@Chad76Media I was looking for a 990 or 765 RS but then I got a opportunity to buy a tuono V4Factory for really good price. I’ll ride it this season but for next season, I will go for one of the others.
I think this will be the standard motor for the adventure and SMT bikes. Once the 990r Duke comes out it will have a different cam profile that better fits mid to top end less low end torque for track days and racing.
@@RobertKehl think you are right
Great looking bike. For me it would also be ok with 1200cc
@@Straightleg55 true
looks bloody ugly to me,should have made it more fzr looking with twin headlight and a bit sleeker tail,looks too 'boxy' for me
@@markstrawbridge9133 does look a little FZR
Totally will buy this if /when BMW make it ❤
Hi. Really interesting review. Curious if you consider the Duke 890 R a really good wheelie bike too? Regards.
@@irf888 yeah good, but this is better
@@Chad76Media Sounds good, what are the main reasons you think it's better? The wheelie control feature? Regards.
@@irf888 wheelie control off. More torque nice fuelling
An awesome concept. If the production version is as nice, take my money!
Hopefully
@@Chad76Media Well, Chad. They've plenty of time to do what they did with the stunning R18 concourse concept - once the bean counters got involved and a right-angle set square got given to production - it soon turned into a complete sow's ear! They'll no doubt end up bolting crap on it that it just doesn't need, like a pillion seat. The idea is to remove everything, mirrors, mudguards, cat, etc. I hope they'll be bold and keep the Lara Croft Tomb Raider poseur looks, just an engine and wheels and no frills except for ABS/TC. Fingers crossed - but I'm doubtful!
Looks really good. Hopefully they can figure out a way to make the mudguard seamless if it goes to production lol.
Hope it does
5'6 and 3/4's!! All the best things are short and from Yorkshire💪🏻😂 Wow, it's a behemoth of a thing.....just why 🤷🏼♂️ but then again, why not🏍️🙂👍🏻
1st comment , thx Sir Chad !! The R20 looks hideous, cool but hideous.
Sir Chad I like it
👍🤪🏳️🌈
I recon Miller will do just fine on that next year

Great review Adam, I'm thinking getting a used Panigale V2 for around £12k and then track prepping it might be an alternative ?
Yeah. Or try and grab a pre raced bike at the end of the season
Great review. But for the same smiles at 1/4 price = gsxr 750
True - but wouldn't be that close on lap times
Except it’s 125lbs lighter
Yesss, give it all ! The motorcycle need the rpm-limiter ... 😂
Have to test it
Do ya know when this bike is coming to America?
Unsure to be honest
My Aprilia dealer said summer. There was one on tour in May, so I suggest heading down to a dealer to see when they are getting their allocations.
Hey Chad , rs 457 is getting manufactured here in Pune , India where there is Piaggio manufacturing plant . Hence here in India the pricing is super competitive which is 3800 pounds . And the deliveries here are getting so late since 80 percent of the produced are imported
Hey Chad I don't know who does your editing but they're worth every penny! Your energetic delivery and content in a different league, nice!
Thanks for the compliment will pass on
Can you explain to us America's the licensing process in Europe? Personally i watch Euro reviews because your average street riders are far superior and maybe its because at 17yrs old we can buy liter bikes like i did which was a huge mistake 20yrs ago. Had to learn the hard way.
power output up to 35kW power to weight ratio not more than 0.2kW/kg for A2 licence holders those who don’t have a full licence.
Keep up the Squid action! 😂
Squid?
@@Chad76Media extreme riding!
Wish KTM would make a proper mid sized adventure bike based on the 690 enduro R.
Yeah that would be good
Habibi come to India manufacture rs457 to world market...more affordable in india
Hi mate , just found your channel and I have subscribed already. I really like your reviews. Cheers -Patrick
Thanks man. Just something we are playing with. Spread the word
I'm way too old for this type of bike, actually it might be fun, even with 40 year's of experience ! Good summary Chad 👍🏻
I’m way too old too. But it was fun
Been looking forward to this review! I want to get either an updated RC390 with the new Duke 390 engine, or this. At least that is what I am currently thinking, there is only 1 Aprilia dealer here in New Hampshire USA. It was a beautiful bike when I saw it in the showroom! Great content Chad!
Thanks. Take it for a spin you’ll like it
only one showroom ?? 😮 in your place ??? i am from India her we can get RS 457 quick in delevery time , more affordable , made in india .....thanks for Aprilla to make in india its self........ usually before 10 years wonder when international 2 wheeler manufacture bring super sport 500 cc bikes in india......not its happening....
@@dwayanjohnson970 The RS 457 is starting to get here in the USA. I'm sure by summer/fall there will be more availability. Seacoast is the only dealer in NH and was also voted the best dealer in USA last year! It has a few brands in one dealership, Aprilia, Ducati, etc.
Dude get the Aprilia, i already have a duke 390 and will get the Aprilia this week, quite a lot of difference. Aprilia is a way better bikr, but in USA its a lot costlier. In india it only costs about 4800$
@@kankit230 Not bad! The Aprilia is about $1000 more than the RC390 here. $5,899 vs $6,899, the only thing is that KTM discounts the year old RC390s heavily. The 2023 models around $4999 now brand new.
How does the Duke compare to the street triple rs?? Price aside.. I want an honest opinion on which feels more worth it, emphasis on feels!
Triumph, lower capacity less torque more revs, possibly sportier better brakes, not as nice dash
@@Chad76Media so, ktm is more fun? Nicer to live with?
@@rns6889 ktm has more torque, more punch, wheelies etc. But Triumph still fun, just rev more, more sporty like a powerful naked sports bike
@@Chad76Media thanks for the replies 👍👍
Well I bought a 1290 Evo last year and cannot complain... hopefully it will stay this way 😂
Fingers crossed
Awesome! Thank you 👍
Trying out the 990 and the Mt09 today. Got a feeling that the £2900 ptice difference may tip it the Mt09 way plus the reliability of the Mt as against some of the problems ktm seem to have with oil leaks, camshaft and bent valves. Have you ridden the Mt 09 2024 model? If so, would like ti get your opinion of it. Cheers, enjoyed your video.
Thanks. Funny enough riding the Yamaha this week. Will let you know. The previous bike was good.
Look forward to it. Cheers
Most dealers are including the tech oack now , maybe because sales are a bit low.
Like the video
Thanks
This demo mode makes for a bad customer experience imho. You've already shelled out all of your hard earned money, and within 1500 km you have to pay up to keep what you just got.... It's such a let down. My old Honda dealer understood this all too well, and even back in the 90's he always included the first service when buying a new bike. For the exact same reason. Customer experience. It just doesn't feel cool to shell out again for the bike you just bought already.
I can see why lots of potential buyers are frustrated.
Damn Chad, getting all fancy with video editing. I like it, but maybe just a tad over the top. All in all love your content, keep it up the excellent work!
Thanks I think. Should I turn it down a little?
As a guy in my mid-40s, I find it a bit much. I’d guess most of your demographic might feel the same? In my opinion, just toning it down slightly would be great, because some of the editing was cool. I love your content, though!
@@driftingfb Thanks. Just playing with the edits, up for suggestions
I bought the 2023 890r Duke because everyone that road it was blown away. It’s a brilliant street fighter machine. It’s so light and the suspension is excellent for aggressive street riding. The brakes are awesome too better than my 2021 SDR. I put the full Akra system on it plus had the ecu tuned to 125.5hp/75.5 torque. Is the 990 lighter, have better brakes, better suspension, more aggressive than the 890r Duke. You’re ridden both. Please be honest.
I hate the extra 1000 ish dollar to unlock the quick shifter in 2024
Some like the fact they can test before they buy, some hate it
@@Chad76Mediathat’s just an excuse of an answer, why should I be glad that my bike HAS all these features but I cannot use them unless I pay? Who would want a bike that cannot be ridden at its fullest?
@@CobGeorge I agree I wouldn’t want to pay extra, but some customers prefer a cheaper bike without aids
Bought the 990 a month a go. I haven't test ridden a motorcycle in the Swiss Alps for a long time with that convinced must-have feeling. Rivals where 1390 SDR EVO & 2024 MT09.
Enjoy it. Thanks for watching
Another quality and enjoyable vid as always 👍🏻 loved the editing amd captions on this one, awesome! Thanks for sharing 😁🏍️👍🏻
Thanks. Hoping to add more videos this summer
