I'm very impressed with 'Men & Motors' ability to put together the 4 most disinterested, journo, biking dullards that you could ever have in one programme..........the tumbleweed must have been in abundance in that studio
They’ve so obviously not ridden about 80% of the bikes the talk about
what do you expect from an ITV Granada channel formed in a failed Sky partnership in the late 90s that had no budget and basically no viewers
I give this video 24%
Here it is 2018 and I still LOVE my 2002 FZ1. 16 years old and 45,000 miles later, it still romps all over any 600 sport bike in stoplight wars and many liter super bikes with less than experienced riders. Was/is a great bike.
Had two Bandit 12's, a Fazer Thou, an FZ1s, and a Hornet 900. The Hornet was a revelation, but out of all the bikes I have ever owned, and there were plenty, the Fazer was the best.
I think that will be my next bike. I got an sv650 a few months ago & love it but want to try lots of bikes. Im starting to look I to what I'll buy next Spring and the Fazer 1000 seems to tick every box for me. An buy them fairly cheap now too.
@@bigt4241 did you get the Fazer, mate?
Love the Ducati Monster and Suzuki Bandit 600
I have the 2002 Fz1 as we call it in the states . Still relevant after 16 years .
I've previously had three Fazer Thou's and now on my forth. I LOVE the old carbed model. It can commute, tour, speed and just be fun fun fun. It's true its suspension is a tad soft and the front end can get a bit light round the twisties if you push it, but it has very assured handling and despite me having no plans to sell my current B-King, I have to say that the Fazer is my fave bike for the 30 years I've been biking daily!
FishOnTwoWheels bkings are gnarly what a bike:)
10 - Moto Guzzi V11 Sport 0:54

These bikes will bring many memories with them to the forefront, of days gone by, well not for all if they still have them, many of them are still on the roads today.
gotta agree the fazer was one of the best in its class. Used to own a fazer. Love the handling and great top speed.
akupehsluarketatAR What did you get afterwards?
ducati monster started the muscle bike craze? have they been living under a rock or what? kawasaki zl900 eliminator, yamaha vmax 1200, honda vf1100s sabre, and the suzuki gs1150e were the first muscle bikes there are more ive forgotten too but those were the big ones
Why would you have two bikes on your *top ten* list that all of your experts describe as "horrible"?
Must satisfy the sponsors.
They made the list then called the manufacturers and this one said "will not give (cash) for your review sorry".
@Uncle Meat:
Are you thinking in text form?
Cool To know I’m not alone with my V11 Sv and Fz1 and agree fully with the professionals
For a top 10 list, they really didn't seem thrilled with half of the bikes
We don't have the Hornet here but definitely I'd think that the Buell has a spot, then the Ducati Monster, and the SV650. Top three naked who carries their own followings.
The Guzzi pulls to the right due to the shaft effect.
NOPE!
It pulls to the right because the crankshaft is in line with the motocycle, rather than across the frame, perpendicular to the track. ALL engined that have their crank inline with the wheels do this, even if they are chain drive!
technically a crankshaft is still a shaft lol
Gen1 1200 Bandits never get enough recognition from reviewers yet pretty much anybody who has owned or ridden a decent example of one would place it higher up on this dreamt up list.
How does it compare to the FZ1?
Mazzagocchi suspension ?
John here in the states(St Louis, Missouri, aka as Misery, known for floods and murders). Luv you chaps over there. That said, my '97 Cbr1100xx is too good to ever part with! I'm sure I would luv the Bandit and Fazer too! My 'bird is only 21 years young no problems yet...all original except tires and battery! Even the tires seem to last a long time lol haha!
John, Dart Long, Louisville KY. , here. 98 CBR XX owned my Blackbird for three years and can never see myself on another bike. It's all stock except the repro fairing kit necessitated after it's theft and recovery. Extraordinary power and handling for a big old bike
I have never seen a raptor. i want one
Gotta admit the fazer is the best in its class
had R1 and Fazer thou. loved the Fazer ....should never have sold it...such is life!
Had the 2008 fz1 brand new. Buzzy as hell on highway
+Jason Chicoine This is the old carbed model and I can assure you that they were fun.
it's really astonishing hi thewe, exercise store # !!!
21:00 Wheelie for England, from a Japanese bike lol
Bandit 600 all day long.....I mean since 1999 and still going
All of those naked bandits were 1200's the only 600 was the red faired one
Honda Hornet 14:41
I know the fazer 1000 won it, and I have one, a 2004-5 model but, where's the fazer 600 on the list?
Aprilia Tuono?
What the best YAMAHA & HONDA ?
kawasaki zrx 1200 ???
11.00 bandit 1200
Ktm 1290 super duke r wasn't released back then
Please. What The best bike cooler oil or bike cooler water ? and thank you
Me want the bike
The Suzuki 600 doesn't have the power? 80hp is crazy my GSXR only had 100hp
the Bandit had plenty of power. I used to have the old Teapot GSX600f and that had more power than the Bandit 600 (the GSX600F had 86bhp) it used to piss my mate off no end that I could ride rings around his brand new Bandit back in 2000, on my 1994 GSX
I thought the Yamaha Phazer was a snowmobile.....
2002
Xj600
that dave miller guy seems awfully bored reading from that script
Gosh I've been mispronouncing Bremboss as brembose.
And I've been pronouncing Gutsy as Guzzee.

"..we'll be looking at the top 10..." from 200TWO !!
How about the top 10 from THIS DECADE...?
Why "Publish" {or re-post} in 2015 a test/comparison from 2002...13 years ago..?
Those Top Ten may have been out of budget for some people when new in 2002. They could make great bargain bikes today. I actually have an 02 FZ1 and with some (OK, many) tweaks and mods it puts out 146 rwhp. It's still a contender even at 16 years old and 45,000 miles.
@@j.thomas7128Yep. That's exactly what brought me here. Bought my first big bike SV650 a 4 months ago but now looking around at what will be next (*coming Spring). Fazer 1000 was actually at the top of my list so was good to watch this and see it confirmed as a good bike! 😉
@@bigt4241 SV650 is a great bike. In the US, the Fazer 1000 is called FZ1. I will attest to how good the bike is. I wont get rid of her. Can't get rid of her. I like your choices so far. I've also had a 919 Hornet which is another great bike, but nowhere near the power of the FZ1. For about $1500 in parts, plus a good tune, you can get 160-165 bhp which is about 140rwhp out of it. Its enough to make any 600 look silly every time and if you catch a supersport liter off guard, you'll pull away for a while. And, you can do that with touring bags and a 49 degree lean angle. Plus, its fun to customize. I have an R6 shock and other R6 and R1 bits. GET A FAZER 1000! But, whatever you think you'll spend on tires; double it! Ha!
@@j.thomas7128 I've got the same 2002 FZ1 been a great bike as you say a tire shredder, I ride out with a few guys whith later sports bikes they can't believe how quick the old girl goes.I like the way you have to take the bull by the horns an wrestle the damn thing , front tyres last ages because there rarely on the floor had mine 15 years cant find anything to equal it for the money 🤙🏴
@@peterbalac1915 Wonderful! Great bike indeed and yes, you are 100% correct. If your countersteering isn't well practiced, it takes a fair bit of muscling to get the bike to set into the lean angle. Turn in is very heavy and not very quick, but once set you can lay the bike in excess of 50 degrees (rear tire size/profile slightly changed) for insanely steep carving turns. Also, when making fast corner exits, you really need to pull up hard on the bars on exit to upright the bike quickly and get back onto power. I have frame sliders on mine and there's so much lean angle that I have been grinding the fork sliders down. If you have modification questions, then ask away... I've gotten mine past 160 rwhp @sea level, improved the braking, suspension, and lightened the bike considerably. For an upright bike with handlebars, banana seat, and comfortable rearsets, it handles so well. Cheers to many safe and fun riding miles!
Video is wayyy too dark. I’ve noticed that trend with many men and motors videos. It’s really too bad and is a bit frustrating as the footage of these now vintage motorcycles seems really great if not for the excessive darkness.
all these bikes are no good for people needing new hips
can someone please give bike models with low seat but foot pegs not so far back
+Gummy Bear Have you actually ridden the old FZS1000 Fazer?
no i have to travel 100 km just to sit on bikes. so i was trying to get a short list
Trust me, I have had three of them and in 30 years daily biking they are the most comfortable bike I've had AND I have a slipped disc ever since an accident in 1987 with stress on the base of the spine.
ok thanks ill put it on my to sit on list
Z1000 is missing.
No shit the Z1000 is missing when this was filmed in 2002.
Dave Miller?
I will bet my own money that he is just an internet reviewer, he says things patently untrue and ANYONE n the planet, who HAS ridden some of the bikes know that his reviews do not reflect actual experience. the 750 Kawa is outhandled by a bunch of Harleys???
NO Harley can outhandle that low rent Kawasaki!
Why was he on this show, he is patently a liar, with almost no experience riding the bikes that he claims to judge!
Hey !! yellow Anyone watch better than this%vifeo ?
I would rather crawl on my hands and knees than own a ducati
Ok, I didnt realize this is from 2002. That's 17 years ago! 😕
Ive had a 2003 Guzzi V11 sport for 10 years along with numerous other sports bikes (R1, Mille, Daytona). I’ll never sell the Guzzi and it’s very obvious the « esteemed panel » have never ridden one! Oh and in the film it’s a V11 Le Mans not a V11 Sport. Can’t even get that right.
Who the hell is Dave Miller? Is he stoned? Does he even like bikes? Utter tool
This video was about worthless. Zombies giving their opinions .
oh...2002...bye bye
Worst presenters ever.
Who decided to have DLT as commentator. He doesn't seem to have a clue about bikes ad as for the so called experts, they're a miserable 'showa'! And why are nearly all of the clips in the rain? It doesn't rain that much in blighty.
Inclusion of bmw discredits your channel that was total bs. Unsubdcribe
