Bit concerned the styling is moving away from the iconic Indian Motorcycle look. The new bat fairing has been slimmed down to match the look of the HD but to compensate they have a hell of a large deflector fitted to each side. Also think the color options are very poor. All the above looks like they are doing a money saving exercise at the factory at the cost of the iconic look ad the customer. Still love the Indians but the styling is worrying year on year.

Love those American made Indian motorcycles❣️ They just keep getting better and better👍

Where’s the dyna at screw the street bob

No P/A 975cc?

I don't think it's a matter of "tuning down the ride" on the Chiefs. I think the touring pipes just flow the exhaust better. Same on the HDs. I had a 107 Road King and a 114 Heritage and I think the RK seemed a little faster even as the Heritage is a little faster off the line. But being heavier and down on cubes my RK exhaust must be doing a lot of the heavy lifting. The way the Chiefs pipe necks down from the 2 into 1 screams "choke me."

I ended up purchasing the double decker option and just had it returned recently. Because of the snow I haven't gone on a test ride yet. They ddi mention you could send it back and have them re-do the seat after the 800 to 1000 mile break in. Are you considering sending it back to them?

Same bikes. New paint. More expensive. At least for $30k BMW really did change things from the R1250GSA to R1300GSA.

Kawasaki should offer more color choices

It's a new year with new colors at new prices. The Harley way. *bald eagle screams*

Not citing torque.

Love the bikes but after collecting motorcycles for years. I can't justify spending that much money anymore with 10 bikes in garage.

I have an older Scout Bobber I bought new in '23. I love everything about it except for the lack of tech. Damn thing doesn't even have a gas gauge. I think, though, my next bike will be the Chief Bobber Darkhorse. I don't really want touring model, I prefer the stripped down look of the bobber style. Maybe the Springfield Darkhorse someday, but I'm not that old yet, I'm only 58! 😉

Good video. You rode the 111, but dis you know that it alao comea in a 116?

Kst just released a new handlebar that is called the reduced reach. Very much like the stock handlebar as far as width and appearance but comes up a little higher and about 4 inches back.

Didn’t know they discontinued the 400.. don’t own a bike but wanted the 400 because it seemed beginner friendly.. I guess I’m getting that 2021 red 400 and cherishing it even more now 😅

Phil, i appreciate the time and effort you put into these videos! Always look forward to your content!

I love the Adventure green Fury so much I painted my Goldwing to match.

I believe the all the Rebels were changed to have TFT displays, and the 300 and 500 models with electronic throttle controls.

Missed the NC750X update for 2025. USA is getting a rehashed 2019 version of the CBR600RR.

Still waiting to hear about updates to the wings 🪽

Indian should put the fairing of the roadmaster or something just as stylish on too the chieftain, just my opinion. I have it on mind I want the chieftain limited in red.😊

Suzuki has completely given up on motocross

Im 4 a new dr also

Suzuki needs a fuel injected Dr650 with fully adjustable upside down forks and adjustable rear suspension. And for god sake , Put on a BIG 7” round LED headlight!!!!!!! You will sell thousands!!!!!!

Suzuki is hurting they need to update their entire Sport bike line up.

Great job!

I agree. I had them do my seat and I feel it was no change from stock.

I'm glad Suzuki still makes the C50 and does not really change it, as was a splendid bike already when it first came out (I had a 2009 model for 12 years and bought another one last year; though I gave it to my GF, when I got myself a C90T). But hand in hand, I'm very pissed off, that the stupid EU emission regulations forbade importing these. Yeah, we're left with "the choice" of cruisers and choppers from HD, Indian and BMW only. It sucks noodles, frankly. Also I'd argue the M109 is not a cruiser, but a muscle bike.

I have a 2018 V-Strom 1000, I just use it for street riding, but the new V-Strom 800 base model looks like it would be a nice all-around machine.

The Springfield has NO VIBRATIONS AT IDLE

Love the styling of the R Series!

Thanks for the gr8 info n videos!!!

Is the 2025 Tracer 9 coming in the Y-AMT?

Yamaha used to be my favorite brand in the 70's and 80's. With no FJ 1300 in the line up they have nothing of interest.

Where's the New VMAX that's all over social media and RUclips😂😂😂😂😂

WR300R?

Still no WR450 dual sport.

Sorry yammy,RIP....

I’ve always been a function over form guy, but even with that mindset Yamaha is getting out of control with the ugly button. FFS

Your sources on line are incorrect

Harley nightster has better accessory packages available, I would like to see Indians Springfield classic bike, do away with the pale yellow looking gauge facias and do a black and white or color match to paint, Tour master still gets a 5.5 gallon tank, a 6 to 6.5 gallon tank would be more equivalent to a Harley Road & street glide, So I will keep my Harley Road Glide.

What an exciting video! NOT!

Xt 250 looks like it’s Chinese 😂

Unfortunately bikes are way to expensive now, I’m in Australia and a ktm 300 is $17000 that’s a lot of money to drag down a mountain lol

I find it interesting that in the touring category they only have the Tracer 9 for significantly less money that last years GT+. If I understand correctly, last years version has the fancy electronically adjustable suspension, radar cruise control and whatnot. Could this be because they have a significant inventory of unsold 2024 machines? I live in Alberta Canada and my local Yamaha dealers don't seem to have many of the Tracers sitting on their showroom floors. There are two Harley dealers here and one of them is sitting on a rather large inventory of very expensive 2023 and 2024 models. I'm retired and during the summer I do 300 km trips for lunch once or twice a week. The only Japanese touring bikes I regularly see in the wild are Goldwings. Otherwise at least %50 of what I see are the large HD touring models. Perhaps I'm getting a skewed picture of bike ownership though. The majority of bike owners probably have jobs and don't have the luxury of riding hundreds of kilometers for a soup and sandwich on a Tuesday. What I see on the highways may not match up with what is sitting in peoples garages.

I sure wish Yamaha would offer a 450 supermoto using the WR 450 chassis and engine, it would be the best selling bike on the market, but for some reason they won't come out with one!

I own a 22 KLX 300 SM and I like the looks and stance of the bike but I am not to impressed with the 25 models they don't look like a super moto should. Kawasaki should just keep the older look and upgrade the suspension and the display like adding what gear you are in and a blinking light for low fuel not the word "fuel" blinking over the trip miles you have traveled , another words just redesign the whole gauge display.

Except for the off road line, those are some U G L Y looking motorcycles.

All boring bikes, just like Harley. The baby boomers about all dead or too old to ride. Make soon new modern adventure touring motorcycles instead of these old dinosaurs

If this is the 2025 release I wouldn’t go near an Indian heavyweight until the ‘26 MY or you’ll be kicking yourself. The Challenger is over due for a bump in displacement as are all the Thunderstroke bikes. Ride Command is definitely getting long in the tooth as are all the imbedded LCD displays in the gauges. A major refresh of the heavyweights is coming if they intend to stay competitive. Heck BMW has been running a 10” TFT since 2020 and Harley finally jumped on their touring class bikes as well.
