Cattskill mountains ride EP1
#phantomrider #aftermath #bilt #biker #hondapowersports #motovlog @catskillmountainthunder @sonsofhudson6496 @huntermountainresort @Honda @HJCUSA @odinmfg #huntermountain The Cattskill mountains are yet another beautiful mountain range in upstate New York! I don't know if it's my Native American spirit that leads me to the NY Mountains, or if it is just the scenery that draws me back to upstate New York time and time again. I hope you will join me on this week's adventure. and as always thank you for watching.

@MikeFogarty-gl6ez Bro, wish to be a Chuck Norris round house.🤣🤣
611, just north of Easton :) I always go out there from Brooklyn
@darekm6859 Yes, Sir! Great riding along the Delaware!
You could look into the 2016 BMW R1200RS, they sell for pretty cheap with low miles. It will have a lot more low end torque (70nm at 2K RPM, the Kawi is 60 at 3K, Suzuki like 55 at 3K), shaft drive so no chain maintenance. Just make sure you get one with cruise control.
@darekm6859 Thank you so much! I love the RS! I will buy a touring bike, I am just undecided right now. There are so many good options!
@darekm6859 Yeah, i wasn't expecting it, but the Kwi really impressed me. Buttery smooth and the tour package comes with quite a bit.....
Cruise control comes with the GT
This was a while ago, no? Few months? I was at this demo day. What do you use to record your voice? Sounds like some AI noise cancellation.
@@darekm6859 Ai wind cancelation on my video editing program. It's been a thorn in my side because it doesn't let the sound of the motorcycle come through. I've been working on the settings, but yet to figure it out.

I am very interested in seeing how the CFMoto 675 SR-R will stack up against the Triumph Daytona 660.
@airgunbubba2505 That is an interesting comparison.🤔 I never rode the CF Moto, but I can tell you the Daytona is just fantastic.
this is such a boomer review lmao
@@EazyDuz18 Boomer maybe dip stick definitely

I live in MA. All the roads in the northeast are fantastic.
@rm25088 I agree! This was also one of those days where you just get this surreal feeling that I've only felt riding a motorcycle. It was fantastic.
Just started following you. Drawn in by your interest in the 1250 GS. I love that bike. I am 70 years old and your size. Odd but I also have HJC helmets. So we have a couple of things in common. I have wode for 55 years and now have a Honda 600 vlx and a Kawasaki 750 Vulcan. Will you buy the 1250 and if so, will you seek to lower. I would lower it, as I will only ride highways and dirt roads so don't need that much height. Lowered it would be perfect.
@allenknight8598 Thank you! And welcome! I am currently saving for a 1250 RS. The performance from the 1250 package with the transmission and drive line(the same drive train that is in the GS), in my opinion, is just amazing!
From India
Es ist der gleiche Motor wie in der GS. Das könnte man wissen...
I never seen those before, but they are old mail shoots and the letters would be for outbound mail, and it would end up in a metal mailbox probably on the first floor or basement the Empire State building still has active ones and a couple other places I had to look it up on Wikipedia pretty cool
bro i love that curvy handlebar, must be super comfy.
Just got it in white. To match bike ..plus be kooler in summer .. cant wait to wear
Thank you for watching! I'm sure it will be great! It's like the Swiss Army Knife of jackets. 🤣
Looks like that pavement looks like it’s original from the 1920s and 30s
Yeah it was pretty bad. I didn't want to push around those corners. Especially when I've never been down that road.
I love those old farm houses definitely a beautiful day for a ride
Hey cool video just found your channel
Going 83mph in 6th gear at 4200 RPM. What are you doing??
He had to tell you how to start the bike?!😂😂
🤣🤣 Yeah, and I can't remember what I was doing wrong.
I had the same issue with getting my foot under the gear selector. But if you look at it you'll see it is 100% adjustable, even by a non-wrench like me.
Thank you, @KevinFayte !! I feel better knowing I wasn't the only one having a hard time with the gear selector.
@@KevinFayte That’s because you’re not retarded like this twat
That’s because you’re not an idiot like this Wally
You are having a hard time because you are retarded
You have trouble shifting because you are a retard
has the gearbox/gear selector problem ever been sorted out on the Bonneville models either by the replacement of the gear selector or in recent years of manufacture [if so then when] in such a way that the issue won't reoccur?
Thank you, @gillianzag1174 !! I was thanking maybe there was a adjustment that could be done. Also, understanding that the bike was a demo, I wondered if the bike had been dropped on the side of the gear selector, causing it to bend.
@@gillianzag1174 no other reviewer has a problem with it, only this spastic
Of all the reviews on this bike I’ve watched only this retard has a problem shifting gears
You need your brain adjusted you retard
The adjustment required is in your brain you drop kick
Great video, nice scenery!
@luuctaverne3660 thank you so much!!
The quick shifter works downward if you release the throttle first
You can downshift with throttle on as well
Nice ride-along. Thanks!
Thank you for watching!
The steering is heavy , said when the bike wasn’t moving was the funniest part.
LOVE the Low rider S and the ST...........however we just had our brand new one BLOW up the engine just blew apart.........so ya ............not so much loving it now. The good part is it is under warranty so that is a gooooooood thing.
Turkey❤😂
I got some great advice..... Basic riding skills..... Common friggin sense.... Oh yeah, and never go riding with somebody who has a go pro glued to their helmet!!!!
He'll yeah! Thanks @markellis959!!
It's got linked brakes👍
I'm 6ft 4,so no probs for me,but I think lowering a GSA, it doesn't look right to me because it's supposed to have high suspension 👍
Thank you @braineaston3748!! I agree, in my opinion I would not tamper with the suspension to lower it.
This bike is awesome,you’re the only one I’ve heard with the dislike 🤔
I couldn't believe it either dude. I actually rode a white one after filming this one because i thought my camera was off and I felt the same way.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts on the RS. Seems you are keen to get one. If so, I have a RUclips Channel pretty much devoted to my RS. I’m sure it would give you some ideas about the RS character and things I’ve done to it to make it mine. www.youtube.com/@texas2tires Good luck and hope you join the RS club in the near future.
If you like the boxer engine and the performance, you should try either the R1250R, which is the standard naked version, or the R9T, which appeals to older guys like us. I’m 5’4”, and I can handle both. The GA, not so much.
Thank you @mikeandmona6584 !! I eventually did ride the R and the RS.(my R video is not yet posted on my channel). I haven't tried the R9T yet, but fell in love with the RS and am now currently thinking of ways to scrape up enough money to get one! Lol.
I never heard someone complain so about driving a beautiful comfortable bike., the whole video was complain complain complain
Light on power your kidding
@jackchristodoulou197 thank you for commenting! I felt like it had good acceleration, but felt like I hit top end too quickly. Like I was pushing it in high revs. all the time. The handling was very light and nimble very surprising I wasn't expecting it.
Excellent video! I recently test rode the RS and was surprised just like you were. The bike that I test rode had tubular bars kind of like on the R. I think I would prefer the bars on the bike you had but with risers if I needed it. I think from a looks stand point it looks better but the tubular bars were not bad at all. I am wondering if the bars that you have make the bike more nimble since they are sport bars. However, riding with the tubular bars the bike was still responsive. So what happened next did you get the bike and what are you currently riding? Thanks
@p-dub7422 thank you for watching! I did not bought an RS yet! If I can scrape up enough money, I definitely will though! I can't explain It I just kinda fell in love with the 1250 line up. It all started when I rented a GS for content. Lol. As for the handlebars, I really only want risers to make it more upright. Now I did find aftermarket risers for the sport style (The handlebars in this video) but I couldn't find risers offered by BMW for the sport style. I know my BMW dealer have been ordering RS's with the tubular bars for the riser reasons. I currently ride a 2019 Honda Shadow Phantom, which is a stark contrast. I do not plan on trading my Phantom in or selling it, but as I grow as a rider I find myself having a different taste for more performance.
@phantomrider22 Thanks for responding! Would you go for the tubular bars? If you get the bike which color? Are there other similar bikes you would consider and if so which ones? What do you think of the moto guzzi mandello? I am leaning towards the RS. Many people think the RS is too heavy and they don't like the boxer look.
@p-dub7422 I would get the triple black with tubular bars and touring windshield.In my opinion the boxer engine is unique and time tested design. On this motorcycle i don't think the boxer looks bad, but on the R18, it is a bit much. I never rode the Mendello!! They did have some Mendello's at this event at the Aprilia tent. 🤔 That would be a good comparison or alternative to the RS.
hi . is this bike with fly by wire ?
Thanks @EDP1, I'm sorry I'm really am not 100% sure. Lol
@@phantomrider22 hi if you have fly by wire you dont have trottle cables . easy to see. "Ride by wire throttle eliminates any mechanical linkages between the throttle body and the hand accelerator"
Close throttle to quick shift down. Hold throttle open to quickshift up
Thank you @pallotey810!! You know what, I thought it didn't have a down blipper but I wasn't completely closing the throttle when trying to quick down shift. Lol. 🤣
I have the 22 GSA
@@phantomrider22 you are welcome
Slightly close the throttle on upshifts and fully closed throttle on down shifts for smooth shifting 👍
5 ft 8inch with a 32 inch seam is not short!!! There are a lot shorter people out there that ride a GS
@tdog2225 I agree! I recently watched @usernamekate ride hers and I feel like a giant. 🤣 She does it so well though.
I follow her and she does do well.
I'm 5,5 and ride like a bad SOB
@@brents1643 hell ya!! 🤣
@@brents1643 hi bud. Just recently I tried a 1250 gsa and managed it fine. Make sure you ask for a lowered suspension one, you should find that you can handle it fine. I am 5’ 7 and manage with ease. Good luck.
👍👍
If you don't like the standard clip on handlebars you can opt for the sport tubular bars that are fitted to the 1250R in the same colour scheme which are not so extreme. If your dealer has a 1250R in the sports colours (the bars will be black, not silver which are the standard R bars) then that'll give you an idea what the seat to handlebar position is like. Many put bar riser and a lowering kit on the footpegs to give a more upright riding position
Thank you for commenting! The black bars would make sense!! My dealer has a RS with the silver tubular bars fitted as ordered from factory, and said a riser would be no problem.
@@phantomrider22 Hi there, sorry I've not made things clear. On the RS you rode it came with the silver clip on handlebars. You can also get the RS here in the UK as a factory order with tubular bars instead which bring them back towards you and upward as well as being wider. The ones they use are the "sports" bar off the 1250 R and are black in colour. These are slightly lower than the standard 1250 R bars that are silver in colour which are fitted to the 1250R in the non sports colour options. I too tried the RS with the same bars as you did and found them a bit of a stretch as I'm only 5'7" tall, but the dealer also had a 1250R sport in stock which uses the same black bars as I could have on the RS so I was able to try the riding position for size before I placed my order. I also went for the low seat too but that because I was sitting "on" the bike rather than "in" it with the stock 820mm seat. Hope that clears things up a bit, though not sure if you can place a factory order in the States or not?
duod what
