If you ask any Harley Davidson, Trail, SM, or Track rider... they may beg to differ. There is a good reason a motorcycle is untouched and resold new year after year.
The GSXR suffers from bearing wear before 60,000 miles? This is a bike that redlines at 16,000 and has the knackers revved off it by unsympathetic owners. Of course it's shagged by 60k miles.
It's definitely one of the most abused motorcycles on the road. In the US it's by far the cheapest used 600 Inline-4 and most ride them stolen with no tags and no gear.
33,000 miles on my 2014 Ducati Multistrada 1200S. One electrical problem, the fuel sensor which I replaced myself. I also had to replace the fork seals. Pretty dependable if you ask me.
Kawasaki Vulcan s is supposed to be very reliable bike. The bike is 10 years old now and they are still making them with the same engine 🤷 i don't think he has done is research properly.
The general problem is the American Nightmare, which is the opposite of the American Dream (high end products for an affordable price, invented by Henry Ford). The American Nightmare is a low end production for minimal costs and pull out the highest profits to become billionaire as soon as possible and see your customers as your personal pay slaves. (WEF people) They have no morals whatsoever on making money. This ultra rich mans movement started in the late sixties in the United States. Even Honda fell for the American Nightmare, which is scandalous. For years they have been the best motorcycle manufacturer of the world, even better then BMW. BMW should go for a better 300cc bike with far less profit which fit the BMW brand in overall quality of the bike. Those, often young riders will later step over to the profitable F800 GS or R1150 GS. In this list i can forgive CF Moto and Enfield India as they are still developing. But Sym? no. No i can't forgive sym which is a world leading premium brand in scooters. Vespa, the same goes for you! I started with the general problem, but the core of the problem is the ownership of those brands which are mostly stake and share holders who want money, even at the cost of the company. The stake and share holders time is over, we must go back to the era when the owner was proud on their products and happy with a normal profit instead of a monster profit. This whole thing lead to the end of the western world which includes Japan and South Korea. Probably also Taiwan (Sym).
Don't believe everything that was said here
alright i believe you
The only one i disagree with is the drz. That thing is LEGENDARY 😂
agreed the guy talking is a woke democrat

Totally agree.
I love my sv650 😚. God bless suzuki for making it
True!
Ninja 250 is perfect beginner bike. If there is any problem, probably because of previous owner. Only thing is carb but it’s easy to fix generally
Perfect beginner bike should be something used for a thousand bucks. The minute you get proficient (a couple months) you'll want a different bike.
Basically, for under 300cc small bikes, 60k miles is just above the design life....
agreed
My friend's Honda CB500X is like 8 years old and has 150k+ miles on it and still kicking on potted streets😂
33,000 miles on my 2014 Ducati Multistrada 1200S. One electrical problem, the fuel sensor which I replaced myself. I also had to replace the fork seals. Pretty dependable if you ask me.
33k miles is nothing. It's about two years use for me, and I can only ride for seven months of the year.
Chinese metallurgy.🤨
The Indian Scout is liquid cooled.
CB500X on this list? CRF250? hahahahaha
Kawasaki Vulcan s is supposed to be very reliable bike. The bike is 10 years old now and they are still making them with the same engine 🤷 i don't think he has done is research properly.
The Vulcan engine is great, but the bike suffers from faulty or early stator failures.
Exactly. Good engine, weak bike in other aspects.
If you buy a sub $10K bike and expect it to reliably last for 100,000 miles I got news. They’re inexpensive for a reason.
Just buy a Kawasaki GT550, it will run forever !
Suzuki V-Strom 650 will do that for you.
Ninja 600R , no problems 😊
World bless Honda for CBRF4i.16k revs and works like a beast 21 years after its making
I my town a proud owner still rides his well maintained 1980 Honda XL-500.
I cry every day for selling it.
with my Hondy CB500X I never have problems - the clutch is so smouth!
My '41 Indian Chief was reliable for 7 years as my default wheels, and I could work on it myself.
Surprised to see the cb500x here. I’ve seen dozens of the thing Wher I am and I’ve never seen one in the repair bay.
The updated Himalayan 450 is way better than the old 411..
Itchy Boots had less problems with the Himalayan then with the latter Honda CRF 300 Rally.
20,000 miles on my 411. Basic maintenance and regular oil changes. Still rattles the same as the day I started it brand new on the shop floor.
My KTMs weren't mentioned! 😱
incredible to see yamaha and specially Honda the bullet proof brand.... Well today is money and sales. quality is hostory.
Absolute bollox..
I love my kawasaki er6n great bike for long distance
Great bike by any means.
I swear that Gixxer 600 is the same bike I rode well over a decade ago... only the quality seems to be lacking.
@ 9:14 "sudden stalls"..as opposed to gradual stalls?
Yes, often you feel enige stall coming up.
@@jpsholland Fortunately my bike has no enige so I don't need a third sense to feel a stall approaching.
Start using timelines it gives your videos a higher quality feel for the viewers
Most bikes will last a very long time if maintained properly and aren't abused or hot rodded to hell and back.
Is anything made to last these days?
My ninja 250's carb failed at 30k km and should be replace due to engine vibration eroded the carb body, 10k km later engine overheated sayonara ninja
25 bikes ...18 of them is Harleys 😂
Unexpected specially from Japanese bikes..
Pathetic !
Anyone watching this is familiar with motorcycles. Shut up and give us your list.
Himalayan 411 or the new 450 from Royal Enfield?
Or the new 650 scrambler from enfield or bsa
crf 250 huh? Funny😅
The CRF 250l is a completely different bike to the 250x or r. Different engine.
@@kenkenny4238 Which are still pathetic to the famous XR 250/400/600
SITE IS BULLSHITE

That indian is liquid cooled.
