mines an 09 and I love it. Yamaha could work on the stock seat a bit, and aftermarket is getting dry, but i love tearing up the mountain roads in wyoming!

Interesting review, interesting bike. Enjoyed this. Shocking your stat about power loss with a shaft drive.

Bought my 2002 VTX1800 brand new. Still have it till this day.

Best muscle cruiser ever produced 💪🏾 💪🏾😤✊🏽

The flying brick, an awesome bike. My brother has the 1999 model and it flies as rhe nickname insinuates. Smooth and very responsive to the throttle.

just picked up a 06 50k on it! sweet bike!

Should be pretty reliable

Lovely colour we don’t get that colour in the UK.

You can rip along all day long, destroy mountain roads, hi desert backroads, and grab enough groceries and beer on the way home to enjoy some killer carne asada tacos!

My 2013 is so smooth, always set to SPORT!

I like this much better than the Rebel. Better style, more comfortable and faster. Particularly nice profile and neater dash. Cheap bars, but that's no big deal. Good review, and for once I enjoyed the background music. What is it, please?

What a great commuter

You could almost call this a big scooter lol.....I am very jealous of the Honda offerrings in other countries...in Canada we are extremely limited....they push Gold Wings, cruisers, and toys bikes....anything else is hard to find.

The frame is trash!

Excellent detailed and very concise review of the Metzler 888’s! I don’t think they would work on my Honda CMX1100 DCT Rebel however. The Dunlop’s I have on my bike now are still rather new, but when the time eventually comes to swap them out, I am doing research on the best option. I ride primarily for 3 seasons and occasionally some winter rides, but my current tires aren’t that great in cold weather. I’m somewhat confident, but I would definitely prefer more assurance about my tires. What would be your best recommendation TG? I’m running 130/70/18 Front and 180/65/16 Rear. 👍

Great video, just traded my 07 for a 2010, 3rd wing. Love it. Got a new subscriber 😁

A month & a half ago I bought a 2022 Honda Fury , it sat in the showroom without anyone buying it, 2024 comes & it only has 7 miles. I bought it & had it delivered. I love it!!! I don’t have any regrets buying it. I know people who have taken Honda Fury motorcycles cross country trips and they all love it. I don’t mind making stops in trips because I love taking pictures of the places I been. The Fury is dependable and people are always giving compliments on it, owners love it. So dependable and fun to drive. As far as gas ⛽️ mileage, other people who’ve owned them for years have said it goes further than what the manual says. They’re right, gas mileage is a little better. I highly recommend it, plenty of mods out there for the Fury to make it any way you want it.

Love my 2018 versys, have had it for about 2 months now took it up a pretty rough mountain gravel road today and it did pretty freaking well.

I've got an 06 AE. The perfect bike - built for riders!

Air cooled is fine if you don't get stuck in traffic often.

I have a 2003 and 2006 K1200. Both fun bikes 🎉

yamaha’s are my favorite

love this review!!!!

Just picked this bike up on Saturday. Got to say for bang for your bike you cant go wrong. Its a sleeper powerwize. It doesn't really want to wheelie it just wants to fly. FYI its extra 280 dollars but it doesn't really need it.

This guy rides day or night, rain or shine loving every minute of it. So hilarious, but informative! Comfort is key. And yeah, the red is hot! 👏

It's a good overall bike. I took mine to touratech rally, in mud, huge rocks, sand, and gravel. And with the right tires, it does just fine. But it has a hard time doing single track due to it being so low to the ground.

Just picked up a 2013 in black and chrome w a shorty 2-into-1 exhaust. The M109R is incredible all around but the noise is even better!

Well I found the bike to get the summer. After watching what others on TH-cam. An I'm under 200lbs and 1100 Kawasaki was a little more heavy when I dropped it after going through a puddle of water. Lucky I knew what to do and I did a 360 degree turn and let go on the throttle and the clutch. Picking up someone helped me get it back up right.

I like the red a lot

I absolutely 💯 love my 2022 FJR1300. Pretty much perfect.

I have a VTX1800 and a VN2000. I want a m109r but I’m not convinced its much better than the bikes I already have.

I'm so old school. I cancel the self cancel blinkers, which turns them back on.

Great review

For most people I think the 111 is more than enough power, I personally see no need to get the dark horse with the 116 for an extra $5k here in Canada. Yes you get the electronic gauge as well with the maps but I would rather save that money and just get the regular 111 and put an aftermarket exhaust and seat on. Beautiful bikes and you can’t go wrong with any of the Indian lineup! Good video

Adjustable Rear sets could help add 1" for your feet. This is a fantastic value even vs multistrada or bmw s1000xr. Seats also can be upgraded.

I do love mine!

Just got one a2014 n love it

Look at the clouds at 4:40. Beautiful!

I’ve had 3 of these. A 2012, a 2017, and now a 2020. Bought the 2020 new in spring of 2021. Now has 25,000 miles in 3+ seasons. And we only have a three season riding season. I’m now daily riding it to work and back as well. Amazing bike. Only suggestion is to straight away get a Sargent aftermarket seat for the FJR. I can’t imagine not having it. The OEM seat will kill your arse.

Ohhh so fast, hardly twists the throttle 😂😂

In 2007 I bought an 05 1800N S3 brand new.. It had been sitting on my local Honda's showroom floor for a bit over 2 years.. Orig msrp was like $14,500 and I got it $4k off at $10,500.. No one was buying them at that time for some reason.. It was fast for a cruiser back then but after trying a couple street glides and letting them lower in value, I sold it in 2012 and got a street glide.. The fairing, gauges, radio, cruise control, abs, hard bags, and the sound.. That was the only thing I hated on the VTX was the sound.. I had V&H long shots and a nice intake & good tune, but just a horrible tractor sound.. It was noise, just not nice noise.. My harley with a cam sounds amazing.. When these still cost 5-8k bucks I would rather spend $8-10k on a nice bagger harley..

Interesting. 50hp is exactly what the Vulcan VN900 is quoted off the showroom floor, but it has more torque and you can feel it. The sound is better too from a V-twin imo. But change up the monster mufflers for Vance & Hines + a cone-air filter with a simple Cobra 2000 plug and play fuel module dialed up to full rich (no dyno needed) and it surely pumps out over 60hp on the butt dyno :-) . Mine zipped up to 180kph on the highway from the slip road and it surprised a lot of sports bikes off the traffic lights. I should never have sold it ....

Can you find another touring bike with a better fairing? This angry face is basically every cat looking at you with annoyance.

Love my 109 . First to second clunky.

Nice review! But the check engine light is blinking the entire time?

It looks great but kind of overprices for a 450cc affordable beginner's cruiser from kawasaki. Not extra premium nor extra powerful at jist 450cc and around 40 bhp. The Royal Enfield Super Meteor and The Shotgun with a 650 parallel twin being more premium bikes with larger engines at 650cc cost a lot less than this. Thos dont even have USD forks nor a mono shock speaking of premium parts.

I’ve got a 2016 manual CTX. I’ve put on a Corbin saddle. Kept the stock exhaust. This is bike #13 and it’s the most comfortable, capable, and exciting bike I’ve ridden since my VTR 996 back in the early 2000’s.

fewer quirks

I don't know why but this bike screams "Turbo me!!"

Well I would not call those old, but I get it. I also like to add lighting. Sometimes it help to personalize it, then it also helps with safety.
