      There are plenty of full on dirt bikes that classify in different parts of the world. The Enduro bikes are considered "Dual Sport" in the states because the US doesn't have serious enduro events (Hare and Hounds are not, by European standards, serious). But the EXCs are full on dirt bikes that are road legal in most countries.
      And they are a real blast, even in road legal form. In fact, the Supermotards are almost always enduro machines with road tyres, a bit more front brake, and slightly stiffer suspenders. I happen to know a few people in Europe who have enduro/SM bikes that they'll swap from dirt to road specs in not much more than an hour.
      2 extremely fun bikes for no more money than a cheapish sport bike.

    Sumos are so much fun. I never wheelied in my life before i rode one. When i test rode the KTM SMC-R, well, my cat claims that the front wheel left the pavement a lot of times, but don't believe her, she's a mischievous cat.
    So much fun. Absolutely draws out the hooligan in even the most gentle rider. Absolutely a bad idea if you are already predisposed to ride like an idiot.

    I've owned pretty much every type of bike and I would say this list is well done, with the exception that ADV and Sport Tourers are MUCH more fun than cruisers.. and depending on your use case (as is mine) could be in the A tier if you enjoy riding for over an hour or two.

But, for under $1000 with insurance tax and tag, and a bullet proof engine and very forgiving bike that doesn't mind getting on its side when goofing off in the dirt, big smiles boys and girls, on a dollar's worth of gas.

  • @timsretirementjourney8323
    @timsretirementjourney8323 4 года назад +3

    Great video and you covered all the categories I could think of. A lot of these rankings are relative to age though. Light, flickable, powerful bikes are great when you're new to the sport and if you always just ride short distances, but after a while when a person decides they want to put on some serious miles they tend to start looking at something a bit heavier like a sport touring or cruiser with some luggage.
    I'm 68 and I guess I'll never get to the age where I see a all out touring bike as my best option though. Some of those remind me of a Cadillac with two wheels. Put me and the wife on and a person's probably looking at 1200 - 1300 lbs.
    I'd sure love to see you and Yammie take a long trip with the Busa and any one of the other bikes you have there, and at the end of the trip let us know your thoughts, ... (or rent a couple of sport touring bikes you don't have such as the FJR1300 and new 1400 Concours).

    Spite, how are you gonna put the VFR800 in C tier, behind cruisers? It's so comfy, has a good bit more power than the 650 class, and it'll still carve up the twisties. Put on the bags and you can go miles. I think you should revisit your old VFR and see if you don't like it better these days.

    EDIT: I just went on google and actual speed limit here in MPH is 75 MPH

      be able to ride a 50cc at 14 and a 125 at 16 would have been so much fun as a teenager. you essentially get the freedom of an adult 4 years early, and the price to pay for that is you don't get the freedom to ride a high powered death machine until you're a little older. seem pretty reasonable, you cant legally use the power of a 1000cc on the road anyway

      @@metalmaster76 Yes but we have to take a new licence every time wich isn't cheap not every 14 year old has money for a bike and to take the licence only to have to do it again at 16 and at 18 and eventualy at 25 here licences are not cheap, it's way easier to get a car you just have to take one licence at 18 that's why i said they make it hard for bikers here cause if you think about it in america it's way easier.

    Funny that you exclude the Vulcan S. Of course there are many different Vulcans. I allow myself to own any bike I want under $6k, and I have a couple of dozen. I'm not a cruiser guy, but I've owned and ridden a lot of them. I prefer standards and "naked" bikes and add my own accessories. And Yet, I have a couple of first gen Vulcan VN750's. Talk about a great bike to hop on for no particular reason and ride for a couple of hours! And I've personally known riders from 5'4"-6'2" that fit and enjoyed them. I would add this particular model all the way up to the B category.

Someone who knows that the Yamaha line of cruisers is great, but lack the soul of a Harley or Indian bagger. Someone who knows that the best bang for the buck comes in the Honda VTX line. The line that should have stuck around for the slump in Harley and the demise of Victory. Just personal examples, but some that would expand the horizons of your channel to new viewers. Love the channel though. I'm a huge fan of what you're doing.
