Hey Yam, I just bought a WR250R. What tyres are you using on yours?
this is insane i remember subbing back in the days of the yammie lists
is this US exclusive?
Hey yammie is a klr good for beginners/city/highway driver
All listings for the Svartpilen 401 start at 5300. Is this the correct amount, and where did you get your number?
The "Huskys" aren't leaking, they're marking their territory. 😉😁
Do they sniff each others butts too?
Well done 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 Back in the day working on dad’s old Pommie bikes I use to joke about the difference between a Triumph and a bucket with a bucket holding oil. I think I actually like this one better.
if its leaking that means it has oil at least xD
Thats what i say when i piss my pants
Totally confused. How did we get on a dog lifting his leg?
As a Husqvarna Vitpilen 701 owner, I have to agree wholeheartedly with their inclusion on this list. Great commuter bike that makes for decent road tripping on the weekends and catches people off guard everywhere you park it.
I love my Vit 701. It's a such a shame they stopped making it. I'm actually about to shove a Antigrav Li-Ion battery in it, haha.
Yammie, Glad you finally included the Honda NC it is the best commuter bike! By definition it can be boring but it is the best at commuting. Reliable low end torque for city traffic best part about it is MPG!
I had an FZ07 for 3 years of city commuting, and weekend road trips. Absolutely amazing bike. Reliable as all hell, always puts a smile on your face, inexpensive, and easy to maintain in your own garage with an easy maintenance schedule. So much to enjoy. My only complaint, after 3.5 hrs or longer in that seat and my 5' 9" body would start getting cramped in the legs and knees. (But i wrecked my knees in my youth)
I've been commuting with the CB 650R for the last year and loving it in the city. Lots of fun on the weekends too
Good list. The Huskies are all great choices. Great respect for giving the Super Cub the proper respect. Agree 100%, it's been the most popular vehicle on Planet Earf for decades for a reason. If I didn't weigh more than the bike itself I'd have one.
"Your neighbors front lawn" You know me so well yam.
This had my cracking up. Lol. 😂
Honestly, I love your videos. Since reconsidering a motorbike to commute. I have been watching your videos non-stop. Kudos bike bro
street triple! literally, the best bike to do it all. good for city, twisties, and track. It's a daytona, but for the street. no idea why yammie rarely mentions it considering the triple 675 is one of his favorite engines.
I just got a 2012 Suzuki tu250x and it's a perfect first bike and city bike! Been riding about 3 weeks and I love it!
it feels great when you have confirmation bias and Yammie shows the bike you are buying as number 1 on the list. Go husqys! yeah boii papa yam busaboi
I would love for a proper Yammy review of the Vitpilen 701. The best review I can find online is the one Fortnine did and that motorcycle review is honestly the best motorcycle review/movie I have ever seen.
Good luck finding one. Since they stopped making them after the 2020 model they're in high demand. I get offers for mine that are a little ridiculous sometimes but I love my bike too much to let it go.
Bought a svartpilen 701 memorial day weekend. Slave clutch cylinder went out. Replaced with an Oberon. Bike has been fun as shit
I ride a triumph street scrambler everyday (almost) my commute is 20 miles each way and I have to do a lot of lane splitting. The only things that get through smaller gaps than me are scooters and a crazy girl on a CBR250. I ride in all weather and it has never missed a beat. Highly recommend giving it a go.
I bet that whitney is the one who suggested the thumbnail 😂❤️
I put 10k miles on an NC700x and it’s an excellent city bike. Could be lighter, but it still rocks. The Ford Explorer of bikes.
I had to lead a sport touring tour a few days on my NC700X. I was leading a 765 Street Triple, a Tiger 1050, and an "80 Suzuki GS1000G and no-one was asking for more. Maybe just a bit from the fastest sweepers but I had to wait and check in on the twisty stuff.
Right! He doesn't get it.
While living in Philadelphia, I've owned a rebel 500, Bonneville Bobber, and an r ninet. I rode each of them daily during all seasons. I love the r ninet, but it's the worst city bike of the three. The bobber was probably the best, but there was something about the rebel that made me really miss it after selling. Maybe it was the light weight and flickable agility. In any case, I should've never sold that bike.
I am so sorry you live in Philly.
@@KevXRDuke pfft....I've been to every comparable city in the country and Philly is by far the greatest of them all. Nothing like it. Go birds.
@@socojava yur high
I've always ridden thumper dual sports and they're great urban assault vehicles. Speed bumps at 55MPH - duh dut! Can't even feel them. I now have a BMW G310GS and it's the less rowdy and more refined version of a dual sport thumper. It's great for cities and secondary rural roads without screaming, "I'm a hoon!"
Honda NC750X is so underrated. Riding it hard I still get 70 mpg. That matters today. Lots of torque down low & in the mid-range. It's not a track bike though you could do that if you wanted. Cruising at 80 mph the engine is just doing 4,000 rpm.
I Feel that the oldies were forgotten. I love motoguzzi and their latest v7 seems like a blast. Maybe the best retro bike that might be perfect for city commuting
The R7 is honestly doing great for me as a city bike. I live in the cobb County area and travel to Atlanta all the time for work
It was a pleasant surprise to find a super cub at the end! I have one and literally take it everywhere in town. 100 plus MPG, 5 dollars a month full coverage insurance, and it’ll ride at 55 mph all day. I sold my bigger bike cause I never rode it..
I bought a Svartpilen 401 after discovering them on your channel. BEST. DECISION. EVER. Loving every second of it
Same here
I absolutely love my Vulcan s for the city. I grab the keys to the little kawi more often than the Honda sabre, sv650 or the kawi zx,14r in the garage. Maybe a modified scooter is in my future.. Good vid brother.
Bro your channel is the best moto channel out there. Cheers dude
Cool variety of urban dweller bikes. It's difficult to give up horsepower but I see the value of a urban beater bike.
That moment when one of the memes you made and put on discord shows up in the video..... life is complete
Yammie, you said “zero S” and show a zero SRF and also give the torque specs for the S (78) instead of the specs for the SRF shown (140). Then show a photo of an actual S, and give the price ($10,000 less than the SRF originally shown.) The S and SRF are completely different bikes with different motors and batteries. Not trying to bust balls, love your content and love my zero (i also have a honda, dont worry petrolians), just trying to keep the info straight. Cheers!
I'd choose the Zero FX, but I'm a hoon at heart.
I've recently been looking into buying an nc750 and ngl your roast of it kinda made me want it more
I had an NC700X that I commuted 60mi in LA traffic every day and it was perfect
A 150cc scooter is perfect for city as well the CVT allows stop and go so much easy
Exactly. A simple TaoTao 150cc Galaxy works fine.
Just snagged a Svartpilen 701 for under 7000 bucks. Can't imagine anything else at that price being this much fun
I’m looking to trade my SV in for a Svart. My buddy has a Vitty 701 that I love minus the clip-ons.
@@nicksmith8166 definitely recommend it. I've ridden the vitpilen before and prefer the svartpilen for sure
@@scaglietticoupe just looking for the right deal and it’ll be a done deal 👌🏻
That "Finding Neutral" got me cracking loud hahaha
I have a Cub and if you hang out with ton of supermotor, heavy Harley boiss or some thing for long time you should to running around for fun
My vitpilen 701 has been an exceptional bike for dfw, going out from Dallas to ft worth
Duderino the Yamaha WR reminds me of the Yamaha DT125 of the early 90's. The DT 125 only had something like 20 HP maybe less but it was a 2 stroke and although you couldn't make it past 120 Kph or 70 Mph it was the most nimble and fast bike I ever rode in that range. It was THE bike to get around.
Yammie always hating on dual sport looks but I've always thought they looked awesome. Utility/tough/rugged kind of looks. Different than the lines of a Ducati, but still respectable.
He fanboy of harley davidson. Im so rdy to put down my phone if he ever mentions it in the vid
I would love to see papa yams ride and review a Honda Super Cub
torgzzzz lololol too funny I love watching your videos glad I caught this shortly after your released it hahaha
All great beginner bikes from the research I've done, but I went with the Duke 390 '23 for my first bike. Two more months and she's here 🤤
Legit
Great list ..Motto guzxi v7 stone also great
Ooh a Husky thumbnail? You know the way to my heart ❤️
I love to drive my Husky Nuda900 in the City. Great sound and power for the streets
I commute on an '09 Yamaha Majesty 400 😏
Bought it 2 years ago with 2k miles on it, it now has 15k 👍
I briefly saw that sexy Street Fighter at
.54 seconds as # 1 brother before you mentioned the Husky 😄. The Hypermotard is an awesome beast for urban driving as I've had two of them , buy one used for a good price
One note about riding an FTR in urban environments, it gets HOT. I can't speak to the newer models with rear cylinder deactivation, but the rear cylinder is right underneath the seat, and will roast your thighs if you're not moving.
Just the other day I saw a 401 in the back of this dude's truck. Musta just bought it from the dealership! They are nice looking bikes 👍
Just bought my first bike a 2021 ninja 400 can’t wait for my first ride out on it
Sometimes I feel like you guys can read my mind when it comes to what video I want to watch
I don't know about you but the '21 Ducati Scrambler Nightshift is the most beautiful naked/city bike I've ever laid my eyes on!
Hey, the NC750x is quite a fun bike to scoot around on...
Guys,this is the best channel,thank you
what a great job you did here,really...your added dude!
I considered the 401 and 701, both great looking bikes! I went with the Honda CB1000 which has a similar styling (albeit I like the Husq’s better) but of course the Honda has better dealer support, better reliability and more power. Weight is zero issues. I think one of the smaller CBs could have made the list.
Curious how you feel about the cb1000 7 months later I’m debating between the cb1000 and an MT09
@@graydensgarage haven’t rode the MT09 but I do have a Tenere 700 which uses the same engine as the MT07 and it’s a pretty fun/zippy engine. I’d imagine the MT09 is even better and I think that’s the real difference between the MT and CB outside of styling of course. The CB is a pretty tame bike, u really have to get the rpm’s to about 5k and then it comes alive whereas the MT I’d imagine has more upfront power. Don’t get me wrong the CB is plenty powerful but for just screwing around town I’d imagine the MT is more fun. Still love the CB and think I have 25k miles on it and runs great/no issues but u can probably expect the same from a Yamaha
@@martin4819 I had a 2019 MT09 and it was great like you said really playful but I sold it 2 years ago and now getting back into bikes wasn’t sure if I should get another one or look at a CB because they look really nice, using for more of a highway cruiser but I don’t want an actual cruiser haha
@@graydensgarage the CB isn’t a neutral seating position, there is a little bit of weight on your wrists so an hour on the highway is no problem but if you plan on doing a lot of miles it will get comfortable. Obviously much mort comfortable than a sport bike. Another problem with naked bikes and highways…..u have zero wind protection. Get up to 70-80 mph and u start to get pounded by wind. I commute on mine all the time and love it but I try to not use highways for extended periods for these reason. Do love the look of the bike and lots of power but forgiving if that makes sense.
@@martin4819 copy maybe stick to the MT09 then I got a comfort seat for my last one and I could do 8 hours a day easily
you had me rolling at 8:22 love it!!
i got the 2022 FTR R Carbon in my garage ... love love love love love !!!
I live in the capital of Hungary, Budapest with a population of roughly 2 mil, and the most common actual motorcycles I see (If you don't count the horde of scooters) are all types of gsxrs I'm sorry but I really can't tell the difference from afar and I've also seen wheelie busas late at night on wide roads
All types of guh sixers huh? Oh i mean gee sixers😁
Adding to the list of bikes I want thanks yam
I’m surprised you didn’t mention the Honda rebel 300/500. A small compact super reliable cruiser generating 41 horses and 30 pound-feet of torque. It’s a great beginner bike and even better city cruiser with the small front wheel. Only weighs 414lbs as well
Because they keep getting passed by girls on super cubs and teenagers on groms!
Yammies, I want to biy my first bike and I was thinking of a Husqyvarny Vitpilen 401. Good choice?
Dude, awesome video! 53, married, 2 kids. Looking for my pre married life. Thank you!
WHOOO! SuperCub gets a shoutout. Me and My SC will ride home extra happy today.
I work in the inner city and last year when the weather was nice there was a guy who rode by every day on a loud ass Yamaha parallel twin. I heard this guy ride by and I was like, yeah, he’s got to be on one of those cross plain P twins probably an R7. Maybe an MT though.
I love my Vitpilen 401. Thing is light, fast off the line, and stupid fun.
I'm happy with my ride but that Svart 401 sure looks awesome. I wish Husky would make an ADV version with a large rear rack and 6 gallon gas tank.
I would buy a Svartpilen, if I could find a dealer with one.
@@Liberty4Ever an ADV version would so awesome!!!
Moto Guzzi v7 and royal Enfield 650 are perfect city bikes
Yo Yammie! Congrats on winning the game 7 tonight,
I enjoyed today's episode of, "Hey, what do we have in the garage?"
😁😁😁😁😁
Super Cub is a motorcycle: 17inch wheels, manual gearbox, controls are traditional motorcycle layout, & engine is cradled in the frame. The only allowance to it being a "scooter" is auto (centrifugal) clutch & the engine is laid out horizonal, both features found in motorcycle as well. So it's a motorcycle.
yeah, designation for this type of bike call underbone
I bought a Trident 660 for the city. The Tiger 800 is more of a touring bike if not off road. I was looking for it here.
Love my Triumph Trident
Just now looking for my first bike since riding dirt growing up
Thanks for the content and the GAWs.
If by some major long shot, I win the $6k, I am buying riding gear. Metric cruiser here, and stuck with a half helmet, an oversized jacket, and a pair of work boots for now...
I live in Spain and the Yamaha WR450F is street legal and is a blast on or off-road.
I didn’t know you were in Texas that’s cool, I am just north of you in DFW.
You’re going to want a livewire s2 Mulholland… not having to clutch in the city is completely worth it.
Video was made a day after my birthday, cool.
I'd love to see you do a serious vid about scooters... Like the semi-powerful 638cc/55hp maxi-scooters. Not those tiny little pocket bikes.
Thanks for shouting out the the Cub. Yes, they are super popular in Vietnam and other countries of Southeast Asia. Can you do a video on the best bikes in parts of the developing world? Represent for Brazil, Yammie. ;-) In Southeast Asia, 300cc+ bikes are considered monsters; the vast majority of 2-wheelers on the street are under 200cc.
The Sondors Metacycle is another urban electric option that I'm kind of in love with. LOW price ($5k), hub motor so no chain. Price low because they make to order, so there's a lead time on purchase. The gap on the frame looks cool as is, but there'll be future options for an extra battery, cargo, or a fast charger. Battery is removable, though heavy (~50 lbs.). I don't work for the company and they're not paying me; I just like it a lot.
I've been following the sondors fella - some great products - hoping he can deliver
Agree, I love them. But Im waiting for the Husky E-Pilen as I feel we're not far from seeing them land
@@weswally1 Gosh, wouldn't that be something? Right now I'd probably choose the Zero S or SRS, but as soon as it turns out Husqvarna releases one with a decent range, I'm in
That's a cell phone with wheels, not a motorcycle :P
@@Giitzerland And apparently the seat is TERRIBLE. Glad I didn't buy one!
Quick question because now I'm really considering the Huskie 401...I have a dealer near me that offers repairs on the bike but are Huskies reliable? Seriously I owned some 250s and 300 Hondas back in Brazil and those things are chain poppers... Switched to a Mt03 and never had the issues, though I still like Honda quite a bit. But the design and price really got me excited about it, been thinking about buying a bike in the US ever since I moved and this seems a good buy! If not that then I might go for an Mt07
svartpilen 701. tried: good, but the fron wheel is too big, makes it a bit less agile. but.. it was leaking oil (a lot) in the try run XD
Yammie I just bought a '14 Honda CBR650F. I feel its greatly overlooked as a perfect commuter bike.
It may even have a spot on this list?
What do you think?
James Bond always rode a dirt bike to escape in the city.
I ride a Suzuki Katana 1000 for my weekend bike and a Honda Grom 125 for my daily commuter
Vietnamese here
I jumped up when you showed the vietnamese scooter clip :D
accurate portrayal
The svartpilen hasn't been $4999 in a few years. It's now $5299. You'd be hard pressed to buy a used one for less than $5500 in my area because they are so popular.
they are not popular most people don't have motorcycles but i get what you mean. You mean for the few people who own one they are popular.
I've got my big 750lbs 38MPG cruiser that is a blast to ride. My second bike needs to be fun, quick, and MUCH lighter. Biggest problem with that is the market is saturated with awesome choices for reasonable prices. Option paralysis is real. Hahahaha
Lately I've been tinkering with the thought of an electric bike for commuting. But.... The crappy range means nearly zero playful rides on the weekend.....
Had a test ride with the Vitpilen 401 yesterday. Never had this much fun on 2 wheels and almost bought one on the spot.
If it wouldnt be for the abysmal build quality. Is this bike worth the headache?
10 more:
1) Versys 650
2) SV650
3) Sportster
4) Multistrada
5) KLX300SM
6) Grom
7) R Nine T
8) Trident
9) CB125R
10) Meteor 350
A much better list.
I can tell you from experience a Multistrada is not a great city bike. Engine is way to high strung for the city. Its a bike that just wants to go and in the city its bucking at low rpm, overheating and not a pleasant ride at all.
@@TDub_ADV I haven’t ridden the new one, but it might not be so bad? Zack did a test ride of it on Revzilla’s channel and seemed to really like it.
@@benpielstick I have no ridden the v4 model either but i doubt its that much different from the V2. The motor is just too top end biased, it makes too much power for the city( yes there is such a thing) and when i mad mine any time i was in stop and go it was running 250f and about to overheat constantly. The bottom line, the Multi is a brilliant open road tourer, horrible city bike.
Here here for the scooter...well, at least for my scooter: Honda Silver Wing 600! It rocks!
This humor really does grow on you. Yammie Noob NIU scooter review?
I know these are very different, but 1st bike... Commuting mostly highway... and weekend road trips.... Svartpilen 401, triumph trident 660 or Yamaha xsr 700?
The Honda C90 is fantastic, as long as you stay 100% dense urban areas...
From here in Brazil Amazonas selling the best motorcycles...
Ducati Diavel. Gorgeous. Nothing like it visually. Makes a statement. Handles virtually as well as any super naked. Much lighter than it looks. Stupid quick. Gobs of power and torque. Comfortable upright position for old guys like me. Expensive new but depreciates rapidly so low mileage used prices are very reasonable. The only bike I would consider over it is Aprilia Tuono.
The NC750X is the probably the most accessible ADV styled bike for shorter riders. Seat height is only 31.6".
It's less motorcycle than it is a tool....and I think that's ok.
Brilliant bike! Rode it in riding school the first time...... now I want one myself. Perfect allrounder, simply nice commuter. 🙌
If you asked a million people what an NC750x is not a single one (unless they were blind) would call it anything besides a motorcycle...but I get your point :D
how is 31.6 inches good for short riders??
@@Briansgate bro that's easy to manage. I'm 5'3" with a 28" inseam. After 32.5" the logistics of it all become untenable
Super Cub makes a lot of sense, unfortunately they've stopped selling new ones in the UK and an old C90 now costs over £2k...
2022 is coming to EU. It’s Euro 5 compliant.
Just throw an H2 engine in a Super Cub and you're good.
Oh but the Cub actually isn't a scooter. It is technically a motorcycle because you straddle it vs. Having your feet inside of it.
Just for those who don't know what an H2 is; It's the 125cc Hunter Super Cub engine.
R nine T and the street triple are also very good urban motorcycles imo
