Anyone hear says they are thinking of getting a S1000R don’t think just buy it, I had a 2014 gen 1 loved that so much all I could replace it with is the gen 2 in 2018 same as this one but in Grey, it is a vastly improved machine on what was already an incredible machine. Next stop is the all new gen 3 got a test ride already to see how awesome that is.
This model needs an upgrade. Maybe its coming next year since most of the bikes have already being upgraded to new version in 2020. Definitely need a new TFT dash and new headlight.
I test rode one of these a few years back and freaking loved it, don't quite understand all of the "too refined and has no personality" comments I hear about it though.
@@CaliMotoTV I have a 2019 model and I recently described it as a Jekyll and Hyde bike too 😂 Especially when you put the bike in Dynamic Pro rider mode then it goes all 👿😄
Cali Moto TV I agree. Even w/o the resign or TFT, it’s just a fast, fun machine. And you did a great job conveying your enthusiasm during your ride. I have a 2017. Nice video. Thanks.
Awesome, tganj you beautiful choice! just please try taking your hands a bit more off the screen, to it's possible to take a screenshot of the bike...without the hands :) Thanks
crackling and popping is due to the engine, pushing out leftover intake air, I believe adding a pipe will only make the sound nicer,,,,I love the s1000r for this
BMW put the TFT display in pretty much all of its bikes for 2020, except for this one. I guess I'll wait for the 2021 model (and they need to fix that front end as well). 2020 is not a year most people will be doing a lot of riding anyway (damn virus!).
Great vid! I ride a 2018 S1R. New upgrade for next year I hear?? A TFT dash won't make me change the bike. Nevertheless, I look forward to the updates & see what BMW have done...? The current bike is a wicked machine :) From Geoff in the UK :)
Good videos, this and you buying one...Just keep swaying between this and the R Nine T, I do like the retro looks of the Nine T... Then you have all the modern features and performance on the 1000r . Let us know how you get on owning one, cheers
I heard you mention mt is that the mt-10 do you flat foot that bike I've bought one but havnt even seen it yet it at the dealers in Billings Montana the weather hasn't been good enough to ride it the 220 miles home thanks
nice vid.....yes!!! people under estimate the value of cruise control!!! unfortunately ...malaysia spec came with NO cruise control...its the basic "empty" version!!...no option available for us... I WANT CRUISE CONTROL!!!!! anyway u should PICK ONE UP!!!!!!enjoy riding S1K !!!!!
A wonderful review. Nice girl on a nice bike :) Can you make a short comparison between the S 1000 R and the F 900 R. I’m considering both (S 1000 R from 2016).
Bought an s1000r yesterday! This bike is like a lady who can behave like a slut, countrary to the MT10 for example. Still I find the BMW to be a better actress. Pozdrawiam!🤙
You can absolutely judge the length of an object with high beams (that's what length perception is by the way)... you also can see further sooo depth perception is better as well...

The bike is great but it does need some of the new electronics from the new RR and probably the engine - but hope they keep the Brembos

I have a ‘17 - it has shed loads of character
I just kept it in road, didn't get to ride it too long. Depending on what BMW does for the redesign would be a sic second bike next to my Harley 🤘

I keep seeing this bike pop up on cycle trader really considering flying to cali buying it then riding all the way back to kentucky.

Great review. Thinking about this as my next bike. You said seat is ok for you can I ask, how long are your legs?
Great. Same as me. Definitely going for a rest ride. Thanks very much.
I wish they would take the "old" - 2018 BMW S1000RR design & make it a 600cc+
I really miss the look

@@CaliMotoTV Thanks for the prompt reply. Will love to see your next review.
This got me to hit the subscribe button.
Why is the high beam turned on?
thx corona i did not get those beauti on the first of april -.- maybe in mai...
@@CaliMotoTV Got it today wuhu ... Hoooooly.... this bike is amazing *-*
The only thing that worries me is my height. I'm 5"4".
I’m 5’7” on a 16 rr and I’m on my toes if I put both feet down. It’s not bad at all once you become comfortable using one foot.
5'6" 120lbs and one flat foot and one tipsy toe...if you are 210lbs....2 flat foot.
Bmw could had made it with the same display as the RR

Bought one two months ago. Hell of a bike :) Pozdrawiam :p
The modern displays suck. This bike has the last of the good stuff.

Cool bike! Are you Dutch? You have a cool accent
Jesus Bill ! jajajaja
No tft 😠😠😠
15k for naked? No thanks
Dont ride with high beams...it is dangerous...dont have lenght perception
You can absolutely judge the length of an object with high beams (that's what length perception is by the way)... you also can see further sooo depth perception is better as well...
