Papa Yam, Spite, and Whit - I’m an old dude (59) but young at heart and a fan of y’all’s (technically, that’s “all-y’all’s”) and i need your help. I just bought tix to the MotoGP race at COTA and i have no clue where to stay in Austin. i’m afraid it may be at the same time as SXSW, so… and BTW, great vids on the ‘Blade (and the H2) - amazing what can be done!
I would rather have the ZH2. The fire blade would kill my neck and back and I’m not tryna race everyone all the time anymore lol. That was my old life. With the ZH2. I can cruise around and be comfortable and then if I feel like going balls to the wall I can 🙂🙂🙂
I've had a ninja 250 as my first bike for 2 months, and Im already bored of it , it does street riding just fine,but take it to the highway or a mountain road, and ur pinning the throttle all the time to keep up,
I own a 2021 Kawasaki z900 and I absolutely love it. So comfortable and you can use all it's potential even just on the street. I have a 110mi commute and I haven't owned a car/truck/4wheeled vehicle since Dec 2018 and I regret nothing
Sonnet: Squid on a Fireblade "To what shall I compare thee? Thou art more fair than a plastic flare gun loaded with a slug shell, more temperate than a diving board off the roof of a casino ..."
Damn dude, I feel disrespected. Michigan is the actual land of 10,000 lakes, there’s so many twisty roads around lakes it’ll make your wrist twist (get it instead of head spin)
Yeah I just opened up the old 2020 Honda CBR 650R. Hit 90 like nothing. That 900 is still very quick let me tell you! but Man gotta love that Fireblade!!!
Been watching YN over the past few years on different accounts and it's amazing watching not only the quality of production but the relationships between the YN staff grow and get better everyday when it just used to be Yam on his own
i like your honesty in saying that mortal man can not get the best out of the honda , it looks fab though,.. the h2 at 11 g cheaper is still more than you need ,,, back to square one.. but good fun review..
My first bike was a 1985 Kawasaki ZL900 Eliminator. My favorite thing in the world is dragging the foot peg at 60 mph on that sexy machine. I wore down the bolt that held on the rubber grip until it just wasn't there. I went to a Honda 919, which is basically a naked Fireblade, and not being able to scrape the asphalt felt weird.
I'd prolly get a ZH2, an R7 and squeak in a DRZ for that amount of money. The Fireblade really seems nice, but I'd rather have more bikes than just 1 if I had money to buy a fireblade.
4:41 YN: "I've only seen these two bikes in the race track on RUclips" 650iB: "we did tests and comparisons on these bikes because we needed content for a Tuesday".
I was really hoping you'd get to a million before giving away the Kawi so we could see a pull vs the turbo busa. Unless one has been filmed in advance???
Very interesting, I’m a Kawasaki fan and not much of a Honda fan. But I’m a bigger fan of objective truth. So thanks for this and all the other videos of yours that I have been watching while I wait for the snow to go away. Do you have any feed back on the Z900rs?
Which bike? No brainer to me. The ZH2 in a heartbeat. The Honda is a better bike but it's not more fun than the Kwaka and not real-world faster. Then there is the price difference.
Why so many beautiful and great bikes?!?!?! This is making my next bike decision soooooo much harder. Cause I can't just buy them all, even though I wish I could.
YN and Spite, say the Fireblade is gorgeous. However I don't really get that. I think the paint colour choices make it look plastic and cheap. Plus overall the shape/build doesn't make think 'gorgeous'. ... Yet something like the Kwak Z900RS wets my soul, it's that hot. (The Z900RS engine is a work of art, to look at. The pipes are hot. The overall styling is sleek and lush, while looking muscular.)
When the 2014 SP came out I did not have the money to buy it so I watched it go all the way down to 13500$ I used to go in the dealership just to see it! Now with the new 2021 coming out I’m thinking of selling my little house and renting a apartment! That’s sexy as capitol F!
I would give my left tes....e to have these two awesome machines in my garage. That Honda is gorgeous with probably the best paintjob on any hyper sports bike while that nutty ZH2 is just .......well, nutty. Good fun vid chaps. Keep em coming.
One day I’ll get a bike after I’m financially set. Man being responsible sucks sometimes, but knowing that one day I will be financially set and be able to have a bike will be a dream come true.
At 1:41 I heard you say "two X" entries... now not picking on ya here Yammy though WHY does everyone say two times/X instead of TWICE??? Has this word been retired? does it confuse people learning English? As an older not too grumpy bloke, this one gets me. 😉🙄👍
Should compare the fireblade to the rsv4 factory pound for pound and cost. I would say the Aprilia would certainly give it a hell of a run for the money and cost savings.
10:00 in, spite and yam joking about having a hard day at work riding superbikes for fun. In reality, as much fun as they were having, they were also fully dressed in riding gear on a 95° day in the muggy texas heat.
@@Deved89 Oh, I know. I live in the south, and ride in all temps between 38 and 105. I ride atgatt. But I ride in the icon hot AF mesh jacket, and I still sweat like a beast. Spites giant butt is riding a super hot motorcycle in a HOODIE, in texas heat.... that level of commitment needs some appreciation.
Yam, Love your stuff. I'm a fan of the "CBR 1000 TRIPLE-R"... or simply the "triple-R". I own one and it is luscious. I call it "The triple-R"... because, in my opinion, it sounds silly to say it any other way. I also don't say SP--because after triple-R the point is moot. Keep being excellent my friend. - All my best!

S tier intro guys, absolutely hilarious and top notch
100% 🙌🏻

That’s the joke :)

DON'T

A better comparison for yammie’s sanity: Grom vs ninja 250
@Richard Hart true but yammie hates the ninja 250 lol.
I have a ninja 250 . I love it . Such a unique bike . Amazing for the city .
@@DmitriyPanasyuk I had one for a year but sold it for a bigger bike. Wish I kept it for a track only bike though.
@@DmitriyPanasyuk haha wtf is unique about a ninja 250? Is it fun under 50mph sure but it is about as unique as a glass of water.
I've had a ninja 250 as my first bike for 2 months, and Im already bored of it , it does street riding just fine,but take it to the highway or a mountain road, and ur pinning the throttle all the time to keep up,
At $28k, I'm probably buying an H2 SX SE+ or some other sort of hyper tourer.
But the Fireblade is an engineering marvel that's beyond my limits
The h2 sx is an amazing bit of kit
Over 50k bike in Australia which is insane, usually the flashy cruisers are that price
@6:38 excellent group ride etiquette by Yam to point out the gravel/road contaminate by using his left foot to point.
I own a 2021 Kawasaki z900 and I absolutely love it. So comfortable and you can use all it's potential even just on the street. I have a 110mi commute and I haven't owned a car/truck/4wheeled vehicle since Dec 2018 and I regret nothing

As cool as this video was I think a better comparison would’ve been ninja H2 vs the fireblade
Damn dude, I feel disrespected. Michigan is the actual land of 10,000 lakes, there’s so many twisty roads around lakes it’ll make your wrist twist (get it instead of head spin)
corn fields? smh, he must be getting michigan confused with indiana. we got all the corn, and the pot holes...
Truth
Har har har
me 10 seconds in: Yams? Are you, are you ok??
yo, yammie noob is doing so many good vids I can't keep up with them being released that quick
That starting rant was fantastic 👏 🤣🤣 thanks
The BEST comparison ever!!!
I live in Michigan. There’s plenty of twisties. I’m nestled in the middle of lake country so I’m surrounded by fun roads.
Baldwin boy?
On the side shots of Spite on the ZH2 you can can hear the Blower spinning - sounds like the Jetson's space car zooming through space.
Yeah I just opened up the old 2020 Honda CBR 650R. Hit 90 like nothing. That 900 is still very quick let me tell you! but Man gotta love that Fireblade!!!
Been watching YN over the past few years on different accounts and it's amazing watching not only the quality of production but the relationships between the YN staff grow and get better everyday when it just used to be Yam on his own
This aged well
I wonder if cyclecruza has at any point entered the giveaway series since he gave up his CBAhhhhhrr one thousand................

Y’all are turning into the original top gear of motorcycling 🤘🏼😂
I'd prolly get a ZH2, an R7 and squeak in a DRZ for that amount of money. The Fireblade really seems nice, but I'd rather have more bikes than just 1 if I had money to buy a fireblade.
7:15 "eternal pit-lane"...I'm not even a track boi but that sounds like an actual nightmare experience!
"The ZH2 wants one thing, and it's disgusting." LOL
When Yammie is sick of our shit...😂
4:41
YN: "I've only seen these two bikes in the race track on RUclips"
650iB: "we did tests and comparisons on these bikes because we needed content for a Tuesday".
We don't care if it's dumb we just want FIREBLADE content! Ride it in 6th gare!
FYI: Michigan has lots of rivers and roads that follow them, therefore we have plenty of twistys.
West side of Michigan has better roads. And north as well
Is anyone seeing a pattern here with yammie and riding supersport bikes on the road and enjoying it again? The OG yammie n00b days is back
"For an extra RS 660 " best line ever...
A good video idea would be to talk about rpm
Now you must get an h2 before the fireplace rrrr sp rrr r goes away
That’s some strong Yakima Yammie (see beaver scream video for reference) energy right there
Whenever they can flash the ecu on the zh2 it will be a different animal .
Yamies kyle edition intro...best 1 i have seen yet
Ahhhhhhhhhh that monster energy tho keep you the great videos and intros ahah
I was really hoping you'd get to a million before giving away the Kawi so we could see a pull vs the turbo busa. Unless one has been filmed in advance???
now...
to turbo the fireblade...
Best intro thus far by far
We know it will be the world's end when Yammie Noob cuts to the point without blabbering 😂love this channel. Keep it up!

This video reminded me I needed to buy GP tickets. Lol
This was the best and funniest intro I've ever seen Yammie do
Rich people will still complain about the CBR saying it doesn’t come with a steering damper from the factory
Literally has an electronically adjustable steering damper
@@yammienoob ohhhhh my bad :p
Oh let me tell you, we have some twisty roads. Ride 22 up the west side of the state. Beautiful ride.

I have no idea how you'll do it but you gotta compare the Fireblade to the other flagship litre bikes.
YES!!! Has he ever had a ZX-10R on the channel?
So acceleration test comparison. ZH2 = dank nooner, Fire blade = FaceOff Speedster
That's "TURBO BUSA" energy inside him, kinda give me energy too
I might just watch this intro every morning before work.
I would give my left tes....e to have these two awesome machines in my garage. That Honda is gorgeous with probably the best paintjob on any hyper sports bike while that nutty ZH2 is just .......well, nutty. Good fun vid chaps. Keep em coming.
Was listening to the car throttle podcast today and they said they liked to watch Yammie Noob!
Yammie looks good riding the fireblade! Looks like a GP rider
Oh my god that intro Yammi....😄😄😄
Spite should start singing he really has a nice voice
Im 44 seconds into the video and i had to pause to say how fucking hilarious that intro is and that i love you both
I think he popped a vain in his head at the start
One day I’ll get a bike after I’m financially set. Man being responsible sucks sometimes, but knowing that one day I will be financially set and be able to have a bike will be a dream come true.
Motorcycles aren’t about being responsible they are about living.

Has this word been retired? does it confuse people learning English? As an older not too grumpy bloke, this one gets me. 😉🙄👍
That H2 sounds like George Jetsons space car as it goes past.
Do a comparison to a bmw s1000rr I’ve never seen it on your channel
Oddly I feel safer for Yammie with the fireblade.
At 0:10 I didn't know you could do the Robot.... Lol
Yeah, wonder where in the state of 1000 lakes there could be twisties... hmmmm
Tons of cool spots, I'm planning a trip to the tunnel of trees this year. He just insulted all of ohio. Just goes to show shoes from Texas are dumb.
@@jromt4988 what's so great about dumb old Texas anyway?
Why compare?? Totally different bikes. If the H2 doesn't out perform the Honda talk to the FKWT rider
THE ROAD TO 1 MILLION
Respect for the intro.
Hey yam, fun video. That’ll be all.👍
Should compare the fireblade to the rsv4 factory pound for pound and cost. I would say the Aprilia would certainly give it a hell of a run for the money and cost savings.
yo wtf they didnt race them together?
Z H2 only wants one thing, and it is beautiful. 😥 Theres no "tears of joy" emoji, so thats the best I could do.
🥲😭there’s ur tears of joy
Nice there is a new tears of joy emoji lol 🥲
@@zeronomon Woops! Found it! 🥲 lol Thanks.
4:29 sounds like the Jetsons...
Great intro Yam. 👍🏻
H2R vs Fireblade
I wish Qwak would stop using lime-green.
You guys get ninjas with awesome red or blue highlights, not in nz just black
Me watching intro: Daddy chill
"MMMMM love that corn from the Mitten state" - said no one ever. If Spite would have said Yoopers, that's would have me rofl
Best. Intro. Ever.
The peace and tranquility was almost too much.
The old saying prevails?
More fun to ride a slow bike fast than a fast bike slow .
1nd gear at 90mph im sure on the fire blade
That intro had me dying 😂😂
Wating for track day 🔥🔥🔥
I find it hilarious that a $29,000 motorcycle from Honda has the same gas cap as my $5000 motorcycle from Honda.
Northern MI full of twisties. Even Ann Arbor area has some beautiful spots.
People think Texas is flat too. Not true.
10:00 in, spite and yam joking about having a hard day at work riding superbikes for fun. In reality, as much fun as they were having, they were also fully dressed in riding gear on a 95° day in the muggy texas heat.

Like the we Todd's that compare ev cars to fuel combustion cars in a race !

That intro is gonna be a meme, trust me
Only a minute in and yam lost his mind
My phone volume turned up
Wife: are you watching SpongeBob
Me: no babe it's my favorite motorcycle vlogger
Wife: 🤔
hahahaha. It is very different, you can differentiate as "Beauty and the beast" only the beauty(Fireblade) can also be a beast haha.
Great intro bro
Hmmm! Sounds like someone has never been north of Saginaw! Lol
I want to see yam try the H2r on track
