I only watched the video because of this comment. What a garbage take this dude has. Tony, you were correct in your grading. I'll also add that you really get everything you need to know in the first few seconds, when the narrator pronounces the V2 as vtoo (instead of vee-too). His 4 suggested bikes to buy are not terrible by any means, but out of all of the bikes available, you pick the CBR 500 and ninja 400 as your top pics? BORING. Anyways, if anyone is reading this and planning to watch the entire video, do what I did and set the playback speed to two times. The narrator sounds like he's put on his little pointy hat and nightgown and had his cup of chamomile tea and is about to tuck in for bed.
As a seasoned biker for +35 years with ditto ownership of everything from a 4 gear 50cc moped to ZX-12R the "Fastest Way" is quite correct. A lot of garbage out there for posers like Harryley, Ducati etc.. and sensible options in Honda, Yamaha and Kwak.
The V-Strom 1050 doesn't compete with the Tenere 700, the V-Strom is much more road focused then the Tenere, compare it to the Tenere 1200.And I'm sure the CBR500R and Ninja 400 are great for beginners and great fun on track. But in my opinion on the road they lack power for their looks and it's just kinda awkward (Yes I've ridden the CBR500R).
yup , my 2013 cb 500x at 180k km(still daily use until now) , beside normal services, only change coolant fans once and vc + change clutch plate at 150k km. Honda reliable top notch.
What an absolute load of bollox, never heard such a bunch of crap in all my life.

One of the best bikes you could buy this 2025 is a 2nd gen sv650 off of marketplace for like $2000-2500. Smiles for miles without a big cost
V Strom 1050 one of 3 worst bikes…?
yeah this is dumb, the v strom is amazing motorcycle, it's the only motorcycle I've ever owned i wish I didn't sell
Can be. Heavy crap
MT07? Are you drunk? MT07 lack of new features.. No QS.. & telescopic fork.. Low power.. Obsolete engine.
My V-Twin Honda costs more to maintain than my BMW boxer. Also, if you over 6’ you’re better off on the CBR500R.
Thank you for sharing your experience, it's always good to hear different perspectives!
Bullshit video

No..Triumph Trident is excellent bike I own one it's 3 cylinder engines, sounds like a jet..
