I could listen to him talk all day long about bikes. When he’s done explaining what he experienced during his test drives, I feel like I rode the bike myself.
He’s the reason I bought a Svartpilen 701 and I have to say, it’s a blast.
really, waist of my time, im moving on to some real action of riding the motorcycles video's.

you all probably dont care but does anyone know a way to get back into an instagram account?
I was stupid lost my password. I would appreciate any tricks you can offer me
@Brycen Tristan Instablaster ;)
Really like this format of bike review. Probably started as needs must under covid but works really well. Like a mate who knows what he's doing giving you some advice 👍
Aprilia struck gold when they launched the Tuono and 10 years on still bossin it 🔥
First Tuono was a v twin "R" model launched in 2002 i think.
Aprilia make great bikes, but here in Australia when something goes wrong it will take months to find parts & someone competant to work on them. Dealer support network is rubbish. After having a NEW, 750 Shiver which i loved. Started getting cold weather starting probs after it was 10k km serviced by dealer. No one could fix. Traded it for MT10. I dont need 160hp. But i do need a bike i can track, tour and commute on. Plus feel reassured their are plenty of techs out their with Yamaha experience. Plus dealer support is great.
@@Fabr1kat0r still looks better than the Japanese mingers
Aprilia is in a different League to all the others
@@happydays1165 Aprilia Yes indeed.
With crap dealer network and months waiting on parts.. HELL NO
This guy does a great job of describing his experiences and the differences in these amazing bikes.
Amazing choices all around. Aside from everything else that is going on, what a time to be alive!
For sure 2020 is spot on so far
@@sugarrfree ha
Haha
I love my MT10. Maybe not as powerful or equipped as the more expensive one but every time I take it out it’s an amazing machine.
Ditto. I bought one a few weeks ago and love it. I've had a tuono but it is uncomfortable and the reliability is suspect.
Love my ‘19 MT-10....agreed!
I love the looks of the MT-10sp and I would agree the Italian’s bikes possibly look better but I would not pay more ££££ for something that u can guarantee will cause u more issues in the years to come, never mind servicing costs. I drive a Lexus & I ride a Yamaha for a good reason, reliability end of story......
i cant wait till i will be able to own a bike i am so close and i love the mt series of bikes and i believe the sound the best after the zh2
And the mt10 price and upkeep is a lot cheaper and easier to maintain
This category is an absolute treat at the moment! What an amazingly varied and interesting collection of interpretations on big powerful ROAD bikes, we’re finally free from the hegemony of race developed inline 4s; v twin, 2 different v4s, wobbly crank and a goddam supercharger!
Brilliant and very honest review as always from Neevesy! Love the longer and more thorough reviews, and love his presentation skills, as well as bow down to his experience.
As always, skillful and effortless review. My #1 bike reviewer by a country mile. I can listen to you all day long and not feel bored one bit. Keep it up Neevesy!
Great video--test rode 90% of these bikes (no H2 naked or the Duc) and I'm still so freaking happy I purchased the MT-10....can't put a number on character!
Owned the zh2 and tuono factory for 6 months now and both absolutely epic bikes. Tuono v4 is addictive and the handling is best in the business. Sounds are as u know pure intoxicating for any petrol head. Its a well proven bike with many years of improvements behind it. Zh2 is the ultimate road bike. Blows the tuono away for all out speed and acceleration and at times makes the tuono feel a little boring as its missing that supercharger howl. Its very comfy and will do 55mpg on the motorway. Iv either owned all the above bikes or ridden them and owned many other supers. I feel I have the best 2 bikes iv ever owned. Keepers.
Excellent review!! Thanks to Neevesy and his detail - I could listen to him all day!
Got the mt10, even though it's ugly it's so playful and fun. And I can't see how ugly it is when I'm having a blast riding the thing
Always love your reviews, honest and to the point.Thanks for making it.
What an excellent review, I have enjoyed watching this. Great job !
This guy always say how it is ! Aprilia best out there for the last 3 years 👏👏👏👏
5 years...
Test ride the zH2 , Tuono, and the 1290R. Been riding only Kawasaki's since 1980,just wasn't for me the zH2, the Tuono was a great all around, but being big guy I felt too cramped up. Had my mind to buy Tuono, but just for city blasting and that instantaneous torque I just purchased the 2020 1290 R this past Monday, it's Canada day so I'll have to wait this Friday pick her up. No buyer's remorse, my friend has the 2018 Tuono so we have best of the bunch. 🇨🇦
buggeroff clearly someone who has never ridden a Tuono 1100, nor listened to pretty much every MC reviewer who has loved them...
Love the Ducati looks so beautiful.
I'll go with Aprilia. In my local dealer they have couple of 1100 RR for 13k USD. Can't beat that price.
This kind of review is much better than the quick soundbites and flashy editing seen in so many videos.
Really well done.
Wow what a great review by a man who loves his bikes awesome
You had me at "the ZH2 pulls 1500rpm in top" - I loves me a tractable engine! I'll hopefully be taking one on a little test ride soon.
Another great review. Loving this format. As usual you offer the most useful insights and real world facts that make watching your reviews so interesting. Job well done. Thanks.
Good to see a fair review done on all the new bikes and having a broad experience with them, these are the ones that are going to get most of the sales cause they are all round motorcycles with staggering performance,, more than enough,, 👍👍☘️☘️☘️from Northern Ireland greatly appreciated thank you
Good fair honest review. Explains everything so we can understand .
The comparison I was waiting for and it didn't disappoint
Top man as usual!
Thank you!
Love this format. Thanks.
Excellent review Michael. I enjoy your detail and "objectiveness"
Nailed it again Mr Neeves!
Neevz is the best! No one knows bikes like you pal.
Thank you for all the yrs of insight and knowledgeable thoughts on motorcycles.
Probably the best overview of this years naked toys that do a few miles this summer.
Great review . Sounds like you are spot on with this . I have been using Aprilia tuono v4 some years and Sd1290r some years and now Yamaha mt10 sp . Mt10 is a bit underrated I think , but you were spot on here it’s an extremely fun bike with that X factor that make it special. Keep it up 👍
Awesome review! Thank you. 👍😎
Tuono is such a perfect sweet spot for a super naked! Don't think you really need any more power on the street and that engine and how it delivers power! Plus the best chasis too! The best all round package! Just hope aprilla updates the bike with led headlights and a fuel gauge!
you even don't need more 150 hp on the road, crazy speeds even with 100 hp regarding the legal speed limits
I rarely get over 4th gear on my tuono most of the time unless i'm on straight freeway lol. Dunno why you need more power than the tuono on the street. Plus it has wind protection a d quite aggressive for the track too
Lenso Prezole that's true..I honestly feel the middle weight nakeds like the 890 duke r and the street triple rs are just as good on the street, but there's something about the characteristics of the engine and chasis of the aprilla that just feels so good! Plus who doesn't want more power! Though that only makes sense up to a point..instead of adding more power to street bikes manufacturers should improve usability, handling and ride quality.
Tuyen Hoang it is really a kind of do it all bike! If only Aprilia become a more reliable manufacturer in terms of after sales, like how Ducati transformed itself not too long to back!
Tuono is much to loud.
Excellent video, perfectly paced, all the relevant info (and none of the irrelevant stats) punctuated by gratifying footage.. something hard made to look, and feel, easy.
Great video I love the way you explain things to us mere mortals what a choice as you say thanks for taking the time to make this video 👍👍👍
2nd time I've watched this - I could listen to Neevesy over and over - lots of good commentary on the subtleties (super naked subtleties?) of these bikes. I am currently enjoying a '19 MT09 but, after an older model ZX10 I am thinking a full-on naked will be next though I must say the MT09 has been fun. Thank you, Neevesy!
Glad to know that the world's best motorcycle reviewer ranks these exactly like me
So if he ranked them differently ud be upset?!
What a wonderful video. So precise and glamorous. And at 18:26 the MT-10 SP is racing with a jet!
Fantastic review. Best format!
Excellent as always 👍🏻
Thank you for the breakdown on the bikes, as usual, it's all very helpful. It helps myself and i'm sure others, to know the comfort level of the review bikes giving the approximate hight of the rider, etc. since motorcycle shows are a dismal reflection of what they once were and buying a new bike is easier when you have a little recon going for you rather than driving all over the place to sit on and hope the dealerships have a model for test rides. Thanks again!
Sublime reporting as always.
Quality insightful journalism as ever Michael. Your content influenced my decision to buy one of these in 2017. I was not disappointed. I continue to endorse the view that this machine quite simply provides the best real world riding experience in this sector. Period. In three years my dealer has never failed to deliver exemplary service negating a minority view that a fewer number of dealers is problematic. Highly recommended.
Great review, Neevesy!
I ended up with a SD 2.0 last year, as I wanted something with saddlebags for some longer trips - the Aprilia was a close second, but the heated grips, LED headlight, and bags won out in the end. Still, hard to beat the sound of that V4.
I just bought a new gixxer r thou and I miss my mt10! Superb bike. Haven't ridden the others here mind.
Cheers Neevesy! You’ve helped me make my decision. I was going KTM but the Aprilia it is!
Last Saturday I test ridden back to back Tuono and 1290R,I taken me less than one night think about fun factor, Monday I just purchased the Beast 3.0, really must ride one it's blast! So comfortable for me being big guy, and 55 years old. I have 2015 H2 , this is much more fun to ride.
Get both.
Classy review and always Michael.
Awesome Michael, was on track and saw a couple of S1000r still awesome bikes and not to be dismissed
There all great bikes, KTM for fun for me😀
For performance per pound and intoxicating sound it can only be the Aprilia Tuono V4 1100 Factory
Nah for the sound mt10 only
It's very interesting that everyone loves to praise the Tuono from the keyboard but no one actually buys it...
lixno I see plenty at the track and bike cafes on fun roads. bought a ‘20 Tuono Factory myself 🤷🏼♂️
@@lixno
Only because they can't afford one
lixno I have one after owning Yamaha R1 and 2016 BMW S1000rr best bike so far.
neevesy explained everything well enough.good job mr.neevesy
Nice video MCN. And great use of my local roads 😁👍 just south of Peterborough. @mcn
Really appreciate your review and highly informative
Awesome video and overview of the bikes! I’m really looking hard at an MT-10 and I think it would suit my riding style. I like the Ducati but I would rather have the Panigale V4.
great review thanks, nice to hear such an intelligent review about what would work in real world riding on the road.
Excellent review!
Great summary of all bikes
Great review!!
Fantastic comparison video, I own an Aprilia Tuono and agree with it being your #1 choice! Bottom line, you really can’t go wrong with any of them.
Just the highest quality reviews from this fellow .... Thoughtful and insightful ...not just regurgitating specs or marketing claims, but a thorough review of features and real-world performance. frankly what helps us find our bike ... ... While we all want the best ... it's not a one-size-fits-all. ... although my 2018 Tuono Factory is by a country mile, the most enjoyable ride in my 40 years of two-wheeling... 21:09 well spent.
I just purchased a Z H2 and all I can say is wow! These other naked bikes ahead of it??? Im very impressed then. Good video!
One of the best bike test Ive ever seen so far, Thank you very much, MT-10SP for me please.. I still looking for seriously fast allrounder but with comfort and posibility of travel with panniers. Ive tried H2SX (nothing acdelerate harder in this world), V4 and MT-10 SP.
Great video, all explained perfectly!! 👍🏻
I like MT10, but Aprilia and Ducati, aaaa, all bikes are brutally good.
In Australia the Tuono is the cheapest bike if you get the RR. For me that makes it a no brainer. I’ve owned a Yamaha R1 and 2016 BMW s1000rr. Loved the beemer and probably best everyday super bike out there but riding through traffic everyday the tuono has better ergo and just as much power. Not to mention that sound makes me smile every time!
Very good overview and nicely presented...
bang on michael thanks for your help got one love it total weapon
Cracking review! If only Yamaha gave the MT10 a facelift as its still the best sounding of the bunch. They are all great bikes!
Have you heard the H2 in real life? Granted I'm a bit of a screamer fan, but that weird, high pitched tweeting chirp, almost above normal hearing range but loud enough to still be clearly audible, is completely out of this world, and not like anything else. Videos don't convey how enveloping and vertigo'ish it sounds. As if it comes from all around and inside your head at the same time. Played over a massive sound system with crystal clear highs in a pumping Ibiza club, it could be worked into a signature sonic of the hit of summer, if pumping clubs was still a thing in the virus age. Perhaps Kanye will get one to race around on and sample, now that he's holed up in lightly policed, wide open Wyoming...
The aprilia sounds a bit better, but not much
Great review MCN
Fantastic review 👌👏
By including the Kawasaki and the Ducati, you've earned a subscriber. You're the first on TH-cam to do a complete comparison of the 2020 Naked Bikes.
Where is BMW?
@@pashagold or Honda CB1000R
13:06 "around a NASCAR track and a race track" = PERFECTION
Everyone is smashing on about how good the hooligan KTM is. I'd personally settle for the MT10SP for my commuter and weekend fun.
Been riding only Kawasaki's since 1980,at 55 years old and being big guy , I test ridden Tuono , and 1290R last Saturday. On Monday morning I just purchased the 1290 R , just two things sold me on this bike comfort and it's a blast to ride. He was bang on saying it doesn't feel like V-twin, I was very surprised on how smooth it was. Picking her up this coming Friday, no buyer's remorse! Great bike for older road warriors 🇨🇦.
Would be my positions too. Close joint 2nd between the SF & SDR. My Tuono might be needing a refresh and face lift but I still firmly believe its the best naked road bike right now
Great review as always. I agree re the MT10. It would benefit from a facelift :) Also, I miss seeing the s1000r especially since it brought so much to the competition regarding cruise, rider modes, electronic suspension, power, and all around usability.
When I ride with my mates, they all comment on how beautiful my Tuono sounds. When they ride it, all you can hear are giggles and exclamations over the intercom.
Ryanhwelton I love the tuono too but I’m not fully sold on its front end looks. It’s like the RSV4 but they forgot to put on the side fairings. Maybe it’s just me.
@@srivatsanadiger you need to look at the looks from a wind protection point of view as well, which is the main purpose of why it looks the way it looks. Incredible machine from a form and function point of view!
Great review, the one everyone has been waiting for. None of the manufactures make a bad bike now, we have great options to choose from and it really comes down to what character you want, KTM SD all the way for me.
That's why I purchased it, more comfortable than the others and that instantaneous torque is so, so addictive. My H2 will be sitting much more in the garage, after 40 year's of owning Kawasaki's superbikes, this KTM 1290 R was made for me. Picking her up this Friday 🇨🇦.
I still haven’t passed 11,500rpm on the Ducati!! Just BRUTAL power!!!!! And the motor!!!! Just Glorious!!! The Auto-UP/Down is crazy good!!!! Extremely impressed with the Ducati!!!
..the looks alone r enough to win ur vote !!!😍😍😘😘
That Tuono is some machine, imagine when it’s updated in the next year or so. Duke my personal favourite probably,... or maybe Tuono, I want both.
"welcome to MCN. Super naked time. YESSSS "
...my family gave me the weirdest look across the living room. 😂
What a time to be alive. Probably the only thing keeping my hopes up in these times actually. Now if my Ducati dealer would just get back to me... :3
Love Neevsey's reviews - I would buy a Tuono based solely on his review, without a T-ride (if I had $20K for a new bike :-)
You can get a 15-16 tuono for 10-12k. Just make sure it has been properly serviced
Best review ever
Good review.
Nice informative review as ever 👍🏻
I rode the Ducati Streetfighter yesterday and I agree...I will keep my tuono...
Very good comparison. I’ve already got my mind set on the new Tuono, which I imagine is even better than the current version, but this made me even more set on getting one. Thank you.
The Tuono is awesome.
One of each please! Neevesy is one of the best reviewers! Reality for me is the Yamaha or the Aprilia.
mt-10 is absolutely a beauty sir! you take that back!
agree to disagree
Whoever designed the MT-10 should have his dead chopped. I love the bike but truly it is THE ugliest bike made in the past 15 years.
🤮
Very well explained and reviewed.
I was debating between Tuono and mt10 however after watching your review I think Tuono will be my choice.
Great work.
Looking at the super nakeds from my lowely GSR750 I'm surprised the S1000r hasn't been added to this list. Crazy figures like the Ducati. If and when I move up that would be a big consideration along with these awesome bikes!
Well...that does it. I'm getting another Aprilia 🤣 the Ducati is super cool...actually kind of surprised it took 3rd place. Who'd love to see a track time comparison of the KTM, Duc, and Aprilia somewhere like Jerez?
I have a feeling that doing a 'real' shootout (same day, multiple riders) purely at the track, the Tuono will still be on top but with a bigger margin compared to the Duc and Duke; the Duke is an apex predator street bike that is fun at the track... the Tuono is and always has been a race bike with some minor adjustments to work well on the street
Just purchased the 1290R I could of purchased any of these bikes, having 2015 H2 just too cramped up at my age riding after 20 minutes. After riding the 1290R , perfect for older road warriors. Blast to ride!
Ty Neevesy
Love the ZH2 engine and looks want the 2021 ZH2 SE.
Chuffed to bits with my BMW s1000r..Still brutal & angelic in one package.
Fugly pal
Great video!
Some of the most refined superfast roadbikes. Still wondering if you shouldnt settle for something a bit sturdier with less potential expensive repairs like a Suzuki gsxs1000f
Even if the Aprilia looks the oldest, i still think it looks the best. It just got something more grown up and special to me.
Your my no1 go to test reviewer, just to be clear reviews aside what would you have in your garage and I'm not talking bang for your bucks 👍
I missed the Brutale 1000 RR, the best supernaked I’ve ever ridden, and the Suzuki GSX-S1000 which was also fun to ride (waiting anxiously for the new model launch tomorrow, April 26th, 2021).
