    Great video! I'm the proud owner of a Shotgun 650 in plasma blue, just like the one you rode, and I absolutely love it. I had a Meteor 350, which I loved as well, but it just couldn't quite keep up on the freeways here in Phoenix, AZ. The Shotgun looks a lot like my Fireball Yellow Meteor, with all the blacked out bits. And with the 300 extra cc's, it's just perfect. So I traded my 350 in on one after test riding one at a demo event. I fell in love immediately. I still think the Meteor 350 is a brilliant bike as well, and in a perfect situation, I would be able to own both. But having to choose one, the Shotgun was the clear choice for me.

      yes. that's my view as well. if only we all had bigger garages and more money. you made the right choice though. its a good upgrade on the 350.

      I sold my 1200 sportster after 15 years for my meteor 350. The traffic in Tucson on I-10 is playground sh--t compared to Phoenix, so it's okay tor my needs, but my wife (who rides a 900 sport bike) got me a Shotgun so she wouldn't constantly be waiting on me. I'm glad she did - it is an amazing motorbike!

    I want one

    • @GillyBikes
      @GillyBikes  26 дней назад +1

      me too. I think we should just treat ourselves. (If only I had some more money)

    Testrode the green one the other day here in DK. Just to kill curiosity. I really wanted to not like it. But mission failed...now I want one! The one I tested had a 2into1 exhaust. (S&S)Sounded so good! And I might be wrong, but it felt like the Shotgun had a more eager engine than the Interceptor. Maybe due to exhaust?
    Swapping those chimneys will probably save alot of weight. And the centerstand, and the rearseat arrangement. Will probably shave 20-30 kilos.
    And I agree, I would pick the Shotgun! Thank you!

    That is a really nice looking bike. Great to see you riding around with more blue sky. Out in all weathers. I’ve bought you another Coffee. Well deserved.

    A very nice bike and at a great price 👍 I had a Hunter 350 and totally agree with what your saying regarding power 👍

    • @GillyBikes
      @GillyBikes  26 дней назад

      these are a step up in power. you cant beat the 350's though for around town riding. great bikes.

    Great vid mate. Love this bike, but rode it in appalling weather. you got the sun today, lucky you. Cheers Mick

    • @GillyBikes

      Yes mate. Definitely made the most of the sun. 😎

    The Shotgun 650 has a 2 step ignition, it's usually good practice to do one click and wait 5 for the fuel pump to kick in and then go for ignition...just my 2 cents

    • @GillyBikes
      @GillyBikes  26 дней назад

      I wasn’t aware of that. Thanks for the info 👍

    • @michaelmurdock4607
      @michaelmurdock4607 5 дней назад

      It'll start right off, but yes, it does like that pause for the ol' fuel pump. All the REs do, it seems.

    @momarsden3053 24 дня назад

    Good review sir. I rode this very bike at the beginning of June & loved it. I told them at the time that the rear reflector had fallen off. Obviously it's slipped their minds 🙄. Regards, Mo 😊 👍.

    • @GillyBikes
      @GillyBikes  24 дня назад

      Oh dear I never noticed 😂. Did you buy one?

    • @momarsden3053
      @momarsden3053 24 дня назад

      @GillyBikes No. Two days later l tested a V7 Stone and loved that even more 😄. I haven't decided on a change yet. My current bike is a Gen2 ZZR1400 which lve had for over 5yrs so l'm still considering my options as comfort & weight are starting to become my priorities. Regards, Mo 😊 👍

    • @GillyBikes
      @GillyBikes  24 дня назад

      @momarsden3053 the smart thing to do is just keep trying bikes. So many to choose from now.

  • @andyc750
    @andyc750 28 дней назад

    best looking RE bike they produce now, and looks like they go ok, obviously not fast but fast enough to break any UK speed limit and that is enough for many people, great review by the way

    • @GillyBikes
      @GillyBikes  28 дней назад +1

      They do look nice. I agree with you about the looks. Definitely fast enough and thank you 😁

    looks quite nice but honestly prefer the style of the hntr, shame they've not done a larger engine version of that yet

    • @GillyBikes
      @GillyBikes  28 дней назад +1

      I’m a big fan of the hntr as well. That would be amazing with a 650 engine. Hopefully that’s one they do in the future

    • @noroomforsquares4483

      I think there'll be one with the Sherpa 450 coming soon.

    I just took advantage of the Motogb sell off. I got a Meteor 350 for £3200 on the road from Robinsons of Rochdale. They were superb to deal with.

    • @GillyBikes
      @GillyBikes  20 дней назад +1

      Great stuff. You definitely have to take advantage of these low prices. It’s going to be a shock for people when the prices jump up £2000 over night.

  • @rskolokrs
    @rskolokrs 26 дней назад

    I wish get some other colors too. I would love a plasma versión in red.

    • @GillyBikes
      @GillyBikes  26 дней назад

      Some other colour options would be good. No doubt RE will bring some different colour options within a year. They seem to do that with their bikes.

  • @scottastell9415
    @scottastell9415 13 дней назад

    Good review. Glad I don't live in England cause your yellow number plates are way too large and detract from the beaut motorcycle. Here in Australia our rear only number plates are half the size and you can put on a customised coloured plate!

    • @GillyBikes
      @GillyBikes  13 дней назад

      Yes. They are pretty bad over here. If you put a small plate on you will definitely be fined. Stupid rules.

  • @nevsmate8663

    Are u using the wide angle lens while riding the bike in your action camera or its just normal view

    • @GillyBikes
      @GillyBikes  14 дней назад +1

      I’ve not really messed with the camera since I bought it. Do you think I should change it? Pretty much out of the box and attached to my helmet.

    • @twowheelcity3804
      @twowheelcity3804 14 дней назад +1

      @@GillyBikes I think wide angle will give a much better shot ..

    • @GillyBikes

    I like it but I think I prefer the super meteor more.

    • @GillyBikes
      @GillyBikes  28 дней назад

      I like the top spec super meteor with the screen / sissy bar. 👍

    • @michaelmurdock4607
      @michaelmurdock4607 5 дней назад

      I picked the Shotgun over the Super Meteor primarily for the rider triangle, although I do like the looks. What draws you to the SM, the ergos, adaptability, looks, all of the forgoing?

    Было бы интересно посмотреть замену масла, к примеру, на данном мотоцикле. Но не просто короткое видео, а очень подробное: какие уплотнения менять, какие шайбы и прочее

    • @GillyBikes
      @GillyBikes  20 дней назад

      That might be something I start doing in the future.
