- I've been riding the new BMW M1000R for the last two weeks and have been really enjoying the performance this machine has to offer. But is it just too much for the road???

Who else was watching the oil swooshing around the sight glass? 😂
Yeah quite mesmerising that isn't it 😂👍
I did - I have an s1000r and wondered what it looked like. Now I know! Thanks Chopsie.
I was PMSL!
☝️ 😂
I was watching those forks bottoming out halfway through the vid😮.
Really like the camera angle from off the right hand side - seeing the oil rocking through the window, and seeing the front wheel lifting.
Yes looks good doesn't it 👍
@@LambChopRides sure does. Pretty amazing what can be done with cameras these days.
A good friend is an autocross addict, having owned a few super cars and went back to a Miata. Basically he said the super cars are so well engineered they aren't any fun until 100 mph and you are either going to jail or going to wreck. When things get this refined it's either boring or dangerous LOL. My GS is the most powerful bike I've owned and I have to constantly check my speed as it is, these bikes are best left to RUclips for me. Always great to see a vid from you Chops.
Think this one is for me… crazy, tech laden, high spec suspension, wheels, brakes etc, smoother than a twin, road riding body position, ok MPG and good range (looking at you Aprilia), very powerful… yet reliable (looking at you KTM) and not as crazy a price (looking at you Ducati) and not boring (looking at most Japanese brands)
Yeah I have to agree, the riding position on this bike is perfect for the street. I wish every naked bike was more sporty like this bmw. I would have kept my MT-10 if it was sporty like this bike and not so damn upright. I hate sitting upright on sportbikes, looks and feels wrong.
You need more forward position to combat the wind.....even over 80 the wind can be annoying....over 100 it's uncomfortable.....
Wish my duke 890 had lower bars....have em all way forward and still too upright
We've had the Competition model since it's delivery in April. It's a surprisingly versatile bike considering all the crazy hp. It handles soooo well and with that rear wide tire, it's crazy stable. You can't see anything in the mirrors due to vibration. My husband can ride it all day, but after an hour or so I can feel the vibration soreness in my hands.
why did you buy it then??
Exactly my thought process :)
Yeah I’d be picking the soap up within a week if I had one of those….. As always, top production, Chops. 👍👍
Haha 😂 👍
Chopsie I say this alot at your vids but your enthusiasm is what makes these a joy to watch, a rider that enjoys what he does on all motorcycles it not just a job,
Thanks Mark 👍
Corhampton to Winchester Road, lovely riding road that!
Chops when riding you can go into settings, select assist, then select which electronic suspension setting you would like. You can then have bike in race pro mode with road or dynamic suspension to make ride much plusher on our rubbish roads. I leave my assist in road all the time and can still push hard in pro mode 👍
Not ingratiating here but for a hobby, youve got one hell of a professional channel. One of the best
Thanks buddy 👍
Great review, phenomenal motorcycle! My 2021 XR averages 44mpg but that’s all outside the city riding. I think BMW’s in-line 4 is a pretty amazing engine.
I am going to upgrade my XR to 15 pro this September
Yes you don't need more than 120hp for a light ish road bike, but whilst there's free will and ability to buy what you want......absolutely this bike is applicable. I think I'd buy one, I like sportsbikes, I like to sample the performance occasionally and it's still civilised when you want it to be. It's definitely a bit of you Chopsy 🙂 !!
Owned the S1000r sport for the last year. LOVE IT. If I had the money I would have the M tomorrow. 👍
That thing sounds mental Chopsy! Love it.
If I owed one, I don't know which would happen first; killing myself, or losing my license. This bike is clearly not for me. I just purchased a 2023 Speed Triple RS and I think it's got too much power to be sensible. However, I can control it as it has a rather soft bottom end. In the end, it's a great time to be a motorcycle lover. If I were maybe 20 years younger (I'm 66) I'd give this M a try. I'm totally addicted to acceleration! But at my age, I know my limits. Thanks for the great review
I’ve seen a lot of reviews on this brilliant bike.. but your review is the best review of the MR1000 is by far the best 👏
I’ve got the S1000r and it’s enough for me …. I’ve always said even an old 600 (95bhp )was enough on the roads but it’s nice to have the choice 😊 sometimes I think if I’d stayed on my 2002 R6 I’d still be happy with the performance it was great fun ……..❤️
lol that's why I went back from my 2017 Tuono to a Speed triple 10
Don't get hung up on hp numbers, torque and gear ratios is what makes a bike accelerate like a loon, higher hp give more top speed. I ride a 23y/o ZX9r, around 140 hp stock and still does 0-60 in 3 secs (again that is stock, who keeps them stock lol). It is very strong on the first touch of the throttle in any gear (I'm always looking for 7th because it still pulls so hard), then goes warp speed around 6-7k rpm. It still does 170mph no problem too, and definitely doesn't need to be able to go 200+ mph.
@@HalfdeadRider
A bike really doesn’t need to do 170! 160 is plenty fast enough
@@Officialnrb I think you missed the point of my comment there bud 😂
@@HalfdeadRider
I did. What was the point?
its very interesting to see the glass oil moving up and down from the side camera :)
I've been looking at a Tuono for a few years now and holding off as I kept hearing from local owners about little problems and parts delays. This is such a tempting thing. I'm old enough that I do wish it wasn't festooned in stickers though (not that the Tuono isn't)
Get the black model with Carbon Wheels and other goodies that is the one to get!
Go try an MT10. I've just picked up a new one for £12.5k with £1k of free accessories. The M1000R isn't £7k better.
Pull the trigger on that Tuono. It’s worth the troubles
Go for ducati streetfighter V4 SP2
MV Brutale 1000RR.
Great video. I just viewed a video of UK based company tuning the M1000R with an ECU flash which remedied the bike's fuelling issues at low speeds and also its power delivery issues. I saw another video of a guy riding one at high speed that showed off the front end stability issue you mentioned. He speculated that fitting the aftermarket Öhlins damper might remedy things.
Who did the tuning for please mate? Thanks
Perfect timing just having breakfast 👌🏻😂
Prices of these nowadays is ridiculous. I must be in the wrong trade because there's NO WAY I could afford one on my wage.
Closed loop is monitoring and adjusting fuel.
Open loop is reading from a map.
Wideband sensor is reading the full AFR with a signal of 0-5V.
Narrowband sensor is reading the AFR but with a narrower signal voltage of 0-1v. Less accurate.
So a wideband sensor is the way to go.
I believe cricket was invented a couple of miles from the pub - the entrance at 5:14 is the original home of cricket. Mega bike. Love the video Chopsy.
What a fantastic review. Without doubt, you are the best out there. Loved every minute of that ride.....and what a bike. Many thanks and can't wait for your next instalment.
Thanks a ton! 👍👍
I owned an s1000r for a while, it’s was clinical but a bit soulless and characterless, the M may address this but my superduke is just the most fun ever
I love the riding position, but I did buy the BMW rises (10mm higher, 5mm closer) just to take a tiny bit of weight off the wrists and it's perfect for me now
Got to ride this bike at a demo recently and wow! Blows my gsxr 750 away. What a fun machine very impressed
I know well that piece of road over towards Winchester that you are on at 14:29. Crazy piece of tarmac to enjoy that BMW!
Superb review as always Chops. Planning to p/x my gen2 S1R for the M. Ex demos are going for £17,999 already :)
Just sold the H2 and waiting to pick up the BMW M1000R Competition pack next Saturday can’t wait , cool content mate
I'd need to set the suspension to the softest settings possible with this bike. I now weigh only 8 stone 11 undressed, after carelessly getting a large garlic clove stuck sideways down my gullet last week. In the 1970's the default spring rates for bikes were almost always too soft, whereas nowadays rock hard seems to be the thing, even for bikes with less sporting pretensions. Incidentally, cold set tyre pressures of 36 front 42 rear are too hard for me also. 33 and 39 is a lot less jarring.
The algorithm is working, because I took one of these on a demo ride today. I've ridden most of the Japanese 1,000cc naked bikes, but I've never ridden any of the S1000 series bikes before, so why not jump right into the deep end and try the M? The engineers at BMW were so busy asking if they could, they didn't stop to think if they should! 🤣 What an insane experience. I was smiling the whole time, I forgot how to say anything except "holy shit!" and hours later I'm still keyed up.
Kool video, kool bike . I like the sound of this bike , it has for me revived the four cylinder engine . Just proves it can be done . It also sounds like this bike has soul/character now. Looking forward to the shoot out with the other naked big boys . Great summary Chops 👍
Thanks Alan 👍
The buzz is easy to sort mate. I've sorted the Bizz on my Gen1. ROX anti vibe risers.
Seat reupholstered with a comfort gel.
I absolutely love my Gen1 full titanium Arrow Competition Evo system
Seats done
Gillies rearsets and levers
Woolich tune
Etc.
I love it so I can't even imagine the M1R...
Nearly all litre bikes are too much for the road. I've only realised this since getting my new KTM-SMC-R 690 - it has completely changed my attitude towards "fast" bikes. They just are not needed on the UK roads.
The little brake test you did, front forks were already dangerously close to bottoming out. I have to assume that sag etc, was not set specifically for you. That happens a lot with tester bikes. I suggest taking a closer look at suspension settings on your test rides moving forward.... just a little friendly advice... great review! take care
Whatever type of bike you like you have to hold your hand up and admire when a manufacturer gets it spot on well done bmw
I test rode this 2 days ago, the bikes seem to have no character about them atall. Just looks and speed. When your on a bout, all ur senses should come alive, and i found half of mine asleep still. Also at high speed this front end stability is shocking
Good shocking? or bad
Plenty of vibrations at high speeds,needs a different stabilizer,weighted bar ends,I’ve seen a couple of videos with dangerous head shakes!!
I saw a video of an impending tank slapper somewhere. I had that happen to me in 1983 at 120 MPH, just before a Yamaha recall for a poorly mounted fairing. It was a miracle that I managed to avoid a serious accident.
I love naked bikes,this one is a beast I would love to own it even if it doesn’t have character!!,the tuono is another one that I like a lot but dealer support is like shit and it’s not popular where I’m from,the M1k would hold the value better than the tuono!!
Seems an exciting bike to own,thks.
My sv1000s has 130whp after some work and personally I think that is my own limit of what can be used on my roads in the newcastle upon tyne area. I think higher torque is the thing that makes bikes scarier as well
I've an SV 1000 modified different types of power from the K6GSXR 1000 I've got,, it's 170 bhp modified,, it's way quicker than I ever need,,but each person is different and I can't afford a£ 19000 bike 🚳
My 1700 VMax produces like roughly 180 rwhp. Never tested though. Doesn't matter.
No wheelie control, no traction control, no cruise control, no quick shifter and no drive mode. It's you and the bike. Old fashion but power and torque like hell. Torque from 1000 rpm, revving up to 10.000 rpm.
Much, much more than ANYONE would ever need on ANY road. Having it on German roads, I also topped the Max (factory limited at roughly 230 kph) on the Autobahn.
Even with 100kg more than the BMW it accelerates faster to 140 kph than the 207hp BMW. Far from aggressive riding position. V4 engine sounds better than any Inliner...
Shaft drive keeps maintenance low, prices for used ones are extremely high - no wonder.
The BMW will be replaced by a more sophisticated more high tech bike in couple of years and no one will remember that bike, it is just one stone in the line.
The VMax (or the Rocket R3) will be noticed as unique bikes even in decades.
t cannot wait. been thinking of getting 1 of those bikes not saying which 1 but we will see. i will test ride them all but i would appreciate your imput on them all. stay safe my friend🏍🏍🏍🏍🏍🏍
I was waiting for this. 😈 You have to ask yourself if you have a reasonable level of self control. This thing could get me free B&B . 😂 I’m not sure I trust myself but I do love it.
solid review. I'd get one if I could afford it!
Same here, the Street Triple Rs is £11600 compared to £16000 😢 I’ve had a ride the Street Triple and I tell you what 130 hp is actually not bad !it pulls like a train and the chassis and handling are incredible only negative is it’s a bit cramped and it looks like a toy ! But otr it’s amazing fun , especially at £11600 brand new 🎉
Whilst it is more than is needed for the road, since when have bikes been a purely practical decision? I buy a bike because of several factors - the way it looks, the way it sounds, comfort, the feeling of freedom and the occasional naughty twist of the wrist. Regardless of if I use all the available power or not, it’s never been a consideration when selecting a bike. There’s a minimum amount of power I’d accept, but I’m not bothered by maximum power. If it ticks all the boxes for what I want, I’ll buy it even if I’ll never use it to its full potential. How many people can truthfully say they can use a bike with 130+ bhp to its full potential on the road without being completely irresponsible? It’s simply not something that anyone really considers for the road and nor should it be. The only time it might be something to think about is for a commuter, but you don’t buy a bike like this just for commuting.
I have the M1000R Competition pack model and all the niggles you mention in this video are exactly what I have experienced with my machine.
Wow what a bike! Very sophisticated too, 207 HP ! Better left to the track, but could see you were having an absolute blast
Absolutely stunning bike,looks and performance wise.Probably a future classic.
My bike is exactly 100hp less and i find that more than enough so this would be absolutely wasted with me at the controls.Great pair of video's chopsy on the M1000R.
Thanks buddy 👍
Nice review Chopsie, I can't help thinking this would make a great Pikes Peak bike with the electronics compensating for altitude.
Right next door to northern NM yep yr right great for pikes peak
@@steveparish9210 thanks Steve, it's a shame but I heard that bikes aren't getting raced at Pikes Peak any more. Are you the bike racer and commentator by any chance?
Looks like a very fast machine , well done again Chops .
Great review Chopsy , think you enjoyed that 😁😁 can't beat the inline four sound .👍
Looked at a few naked bikes, updating from my mv dragster, just order this bike, 3 weeks away, can't wait after watching your review. Had a hayabusa before, but naked are my style nowadays
wow it sounds so good the induction howl :)
Just took delivery of my m1000R competition last Thursday done 365 miles so still running in traded my 2014 s1000r for it only bought the competition just for the colour option, not noticed much difference in the vibration, I wouldn’t say I have too much trouble finding neutral no worse than any other bike , what I have noticed and watching every RUclips review on the MR no one as mentioned it is it is a little snatchy at very slow speeds making you have to ease the clutch leaver in to combat it, my s1000r was the same but I think the MR is slightly worse. Yes chops it is a hard ride not explored all the settings yet so maybe I need to look at other modes just used road and dynamic so far. It is heavy on the wrists but like you said it’s a aggressive position if I wanted comfort I would have bought a GS, looking forward to your back to back video on the MR 👍
Very nice lucky man 👍 didn't notice the snatchy low speed throttle only the grabby clutch..
I put the grabby clutch down to it been new but time will tell, I thought the snatchy was because the chain looked quite slack but on reading something it said the chain on the Competition is made to run a little slack but I am going to mention it at the run in service! Chops maybe you haven’t noticed it because you never go slow 😂😂
Yes most new big power bikes are a little snatchy at first - it will mellow out as the miles go up.
@@Lar308 hi Stephen thanks for reply I’m glad that’s the case 👍
Great review and no doubt a great bike but for me, I’d take a MT10SP as I believe it’s easier to live with.
The bimmer is on different level in: electronics, dash, design, and 30% more power.
The Yamaha is fugly, the only good thing about it is the CP4 but that's it..
@@laz1go286 🔔🔚
@@laz1go286 If you've got the extra £7k (from a standard MT10), can ride like some racing god on the road where all those slight improvements might make a difference and like the bragging rights the bimmer makes sense. It still has an annoying buzzy engine unless you're going for it though. Thank goodness for the cruise control so you can let go of the bars for some respite.
@@stevecade857 you've got valid points there mate.
However I could not own a bike that when I'm leaving it behind at the parking spot I wouldn't ever have the urge to look back at its ugly face..
There is certainly a big price gap between the BMW and the Yamaha but I'd still spend the money on something I like aesthetically.
I did test ride the base S1000R and it wasn't buzzy for me.
If I didn't get the BMW then I'd still much rather get the Tuono..
What a beautiful bike and the V4 with a proper exhaust system sounds like MotoGP🤩
@@laz1go286 Not going to knock looks being a big purchase decision, I've done it myself in the past. The MT10 is a bit of a blank canvas though with plenty of cosmetic and practical options available to improve its looks. Whether that's acceptable is very much a personal thing. With the MT10 though it's more how it makes you feel riding it that helps its quirky looks grow on you. There are no real bad bikes these days and we're blessed with such a varied choice.
cricket was invented here !!!! great info.
great review as usual.
Great review Chopsy, thanks for posting.
Chopsy I'm the same as you love the wheelies and ❤️ your channel. Keep up the great work and look forward to seeing the comparison vid with Gregorio! 👍
Legend! Thanks 👍
Glad I didn't see you get carried away😂😂. Super happy you still have your driver's license.
Hehe 😬😂👍
I think I've found my new toy 😊 also love the fact your calling the s1000 a more relaxed bike. That really highlights how bonkers this thing is.
Another great, real world review, mate. I'm looking around for a naked...had a S1000R...very hard edged - looks like the M would be literally a Sunday bike...like a Streetfighter or Tuono.
Had a Gen 3 SD. Beast. I don't like the bent over riding position though... The Duke 890R speaks to me... 🙂 But will take a M for a spin.
I was thinking the same thing bud , I had the Speed TRIPLE 1200 Rs and after a few hours you just want to get off 😂 I reckon this bike will be the same = loads of fun but uncomfortable after a long ride 😂
I am definitely looking forward to the comparison Thanks Chopsy
You and me both! 😎😎
Whether folks watch with salt or full send, they’re still watching. Ride what you like is never a bad idea.
I was seriously considering the M 1000 R but ended up with a ZH2 SE instead due to price and financing ($4k less and 2% vs 8% for 36mo) along with I felt that I'd be wasting the M's potential if it didn't go on track.
What’s your opinion on H2 SE?
Dude, make a Stage 1 with air filter and be ready for 260 hp !!!
@@borissh9932yeah same question 🙋🏾 How is the H2 ? I sat on one in the showroom, brand new SE £16995 but with £1000 off on offer 🎉 very tempting but I’ve not actually ridden one yet but I tell you what, the riding position is really comfortable, no weight on the wrist and it’s quite upright and also it’s TINY! It looks like a great big bike on RUclips but it’s not it’s dinky 👍🏾
7:23 was that one of those wild panthers 😮
Hi John top marks as always , It seems old habits die hard or muscle memory, I keep going for the clutch as well he he, ATB Wayne........
Yeah I'm allways hovering over the clutch and 50/50 I still use the clutch to change gear! Haha 👍
Nice footage and you really seem to be giving it the beans more than ever before: the bike or you? 😂
Great review, When to do your super naked compare tests don't forget the MV Brutale 1000rr with the quad pipes and the 'affordable' 23k price tag.
I hope they do an M version of the 900. Add 20hp, lose 15kg , nicer wheels, better suspension and the beautiful M paint job…happy days.
They did. It's called Duke890R
@@brunocarmona4958did they manage to get some reliability with the 890 though? Tested one and loved it but paying extra for the electronics, that were standard on the 790, and the dubious reliability of KTM have stopped me buying one.
Can set the race pro mode and then turn the suspension to road! Totally the best combination I believe and how I run minw
What a fantastic machine. What more can I say except for ....."it would look better in my garage " 🤣👍
I bet it's gutting having to hand back some of these great bike's Chops.
As always great review again buddy....love it ❤.
'Grab yourself a large sausage!'....Ahhh Chopsie you are very amusing 😀😀👍
I try 😄👍
Another top vlog Chopsie, what roads/route are you riding here? Also Do you have a favourite test route ?
That’s one bike I’d love to add alongside my RS. How does it compare with the bonkers H2 Chopsey? I rode the standard S1000R and liked it but it was almost too good, as in it lacked much excitement…uber refined though. Compared with the MT10 it didn’t feel as alive. I thought the MT was more bonkers. Build quality wasn’t up to the beemer though. I’ll see if they’ll lend me one later in the week; you can but ask! 😊.
Yes good comment 👍🏾the S1000 is soulless , it’s so good at everything though , I always say to sum up the S1000R“ you could do pizza deliveries on it because it’s so easy to ride “😂
I bought one, loved it, but suspension way too hard for road use.
Unfortunately had to return the bike as it had a fault.
New Ducati Multi Rally coming home in August 👍
Mine is black. Got a bit of a dead spot in 2nd and 3rd between 3 and 8k rpm. But after 10k look out!!
Great review of a fantastic bike. Sadly, It does not offer the protection I need for it to do 25k kms year round. So i advised my dailer to make a reservation as soon as possible for the MXR, to be delivered next spring. The best year round mobility scooter for my 57y old ass. When it comes in the triple black version Hicky showed off, my wife will not even nottice the change.
Would be interesting if you borrowed a bike you didn't like and see if it confirmed what you thought about it. Actually, I'd be interested to hear what bikes you don't like and why.
The buzzing in the bars gets worse, we have done 3k miles on one and it’s almost unbearable after a 30 minute ride.
We brought it back to BMW and they suggested changing the grips for spongy ones…. Not really a good fix for a 10 week old 25k bike.
Apart from that it’s a mint bike 👍🏼
At what engine revs where you experiencing the buzzing?
I would suggest some different bar end weights and relocate the mirrors, GBRacing do a special weight for the RR version to reduce vibration, might work on the R too...
@@LambChopRides that should all be standard for such an expensive bike.
Yep, same thing here. Tried everything, bar end weights, soft grip, nothing worked so traded back for a GS.
Awesome Bike! Top Vid Pal thank you
Hello Mr chops, that looks awesome, I haven't riden a bike with that much power 140bhp is my top. I can imagine what it feels like, 19k for a hyper bike is not too bad i think I paid mearly that for my GS
Ref the stiff ride, even when in Race Pro, while riding navigate to Assist and choose road, this leaves your Race Pro throttle, wheelie and abs etc settings but sets the bike to road mode damping.
Fantastic review - thank you
Not sure if I could control myself - will have to stay in Rain mode 😵💫
Interested to see how the M 100 XR will compare....
Coming soon! Hopefully 😁🤞🤞
Last week I rode with a M1000R and a M1000RR lots of cash on the road that day.
I just can't get excited about a BMW. Loved their 80s bikes. But nothing they produce in the past 20 years at least, seams to have a soul.
Great summary. It's an awesome machine & seemingly a bit of a Jekyll & Hyde. It's quite a feat of engineering to make it so civilised & an equally demented beast.. By definition it has to be too much in terms of ultimate performance but for real world use, it doesn't have to be because of it's refinement. Although what's the point of just pottering about on something like this other than because you can & it's cool (which might be enough)? Also if you're getting it to go on track, why wouldn't you just get the RR? I suppose it's like owning a Ferrari or Lambo, it's just cool & owning it, let alone riding it, is enough to justify having it.
I have a 15' 14R and a 23' 10R. 14R is going to weigh around 450lbs when done and may get a turbo kit. 10R is going to be a track monster when done, 200+whp. To much for the road? never.
WOW, that is a wicked bike! Very Cool! Thank you VERY much for sharing this amazing video. Liked and SUBBED!
Thanks for the sub! 👍
@@LambChopRides Consider joining my club as well.
that oil pan sight glass is bigger than on the titan sub
Absolutely fantastic review, this has really helped me, as I have finally decided that my new bike is going to be a BMW RR or R. The problem I’m having is that I have sports bikes in the blood, but at 42 and big build, the guy on my right shoulder is saying consider the R, but I don’t want to buy the R and regret it. However, maybe the more aggressive characteristics of M1000R over the standard R will give me the best of both, but with a more comfortable and suitable riding position. Lots to think about, guess I just need to test ride them and see what makes me smile the most. However, your review has pretty much made up my mind. Thank you 😊
Good luck getting a BMW dealer to agree to giving you a test ride on any of those bikes. Chopsy has to do our test rides for us these days.
@@Lar308 I am booked in to ride the 23 S1000RR & M1000R tomorrow at Sycamore Motorrad Witham.
Well… test rides complete. I really wanted it to be the RR, but I completely fell for the M1000R, what a machine! It delivered everything that excites me about riding a bike, which was all reflected in your fantastic review. I can get one in 3-4 weeks, so I’m now deciding how much extra carbon parts to add 😂. Thanks again Chopsy! 👍🏻
The widdow maker 😮
LCR? I have a M1KR Comp on order. Still thinking about SDR Evo (no Aprilia dealer nearby). Sounds like you like this better, though it seems almost too polished for a naked bike. I can't test ride the SDR but did take the M1KR out last weekend on dynamic mode and it was exactly what I expected thanks to the reviews. I'm currently on a 21 S1Krr M. Also 6'5" and at least 23 stones as you say. Thanks.
Can you explain what you did regarding the 1:1 throttle mapping please?
Absolute beast that bike - Im staying with the Japanese bikes thgh. That thing is loaded with complexity and electronics but what a machine.
I’m just trading my 134bhp boxer for a 98bhp Speed Twin. My choice was largely based on your Speed Twin review, which I confess I’ve watched about a dozen times. And largely because of your review, I’m fitting a Nitron 25mm cartridge kit and twin piggy back shocks before I take delivery. The subtle comments, regarding the standard suspension on the Speed Twin, were there for everyone to hear. I reckon it’s up to the viewer to listen carefully and place all comments, positive and negative, in context with their own needs.
Smart man upgrading that suspension 👍🏼
Thanks Dave, credit to Chops for his great review.
Thanks Bruce 👍
Sounds like this could could be your unicorn bike Chops 😊😃👍🥇
I need another bike to take me away from my Gen 1 SDR 1290. I can't replicate the excitement and rawness of that bike in anything else. I've been looking at the m1000r for a while but its design doesn't say super naked to me, just like the Tuono. I wish they did more with the design. Especially the headlight is so lacking. Anyways, good video.
How would you compare this to the Z-H2? Asking because I think you've ridden the Z-H2 as well.
Also would this bike be a good alternative to something like a ZX-10R or GSX-R1000 on a track?
The question is:
Should we wait for mxr or just get a multi pp? Considering the mxr vs sxr will likely be the same as Mr vs sr.
Wasn't a fan of sxr: competent, capable, decent handling, comfortable enough, smooth engine and qs, hard to pick faults with other than a little bit of buzzing, not the best brakes or suspension, horrid sounding engine with zero power and zero response in the lower half of the rpm range compared to the tuono v4, and zero sensation of speed, zero fun, didn't matter if I pushed it in the corners or revved it out more, I had higher numbers on the speedo with more lean angle, but didn't feel anything at all, there was no character or personality to it.
I do like the engine and chassis in normal multi v4 (just not the big front wheel or ergos, or the extra weight/size, pikes peak fixes all), older pikes peak felt good, but I didn't gel with the 1200/1260 engines.
The other question is:
Will Ducati give us a multistrada sp with the desmosedici stradale instead of granturismo, carbon wheels, dry clutch, more carbon, and full akra as a response to mxr? 😂
I agree with some of the comments on this. I love this bike but if it comes with anti wheelie multi stage traction control ect to make it rideable and safe then it's way too much power. I think 130 bhp at the wheel with a shit tonne of torque is enough for the road. I commented on the new daytona and said triumph should have made a detuned 1200rr engined version 130 at the wheel and 120ft lbs of torque at say 3500rpm is the sort of road bike I need. 207 bhp is too much ...... Still love a good blast on it mind but every day your licence or health would suffer 😅
Another great video chops 👍🏻 when we getting more of the big hunts??
Yes hopefully soon, been thinking about that recently 👍
There brilliant mate bloody good watch them
Cheers 🍻 👍
I've got an MT-09 and a Speed Triple 1200 RR, and now considering this bike. How is the low and mid range in comparison to those? Always look forward to seeing your videos!
The horsepower on this bike is insane. I’ve seen a couple of “legitimate” reviewers that have said the m1000r has the advantage that it’s more manageable at normal street/hwy speeds than some other hyper makers but is freaky fast in the higher revs.
Duke 1290 GT Blows this away..! The torque is something else @ 150Nm, and thats what really gives you the rush.
