I'm on my first BMW, an F900r, in nearly two decade of riding and I'm still super impressed by just how will it's built. Even after two years of hard riding, it still looks and feels brand new.
Awesome. At 48 I still get a childish giggle and wow factor each time I buy a new bike and take it for its first ride. 👍😎
Don’t know how many years I’ve been watching your channel man! Love from Australia I love it
thank you!!
@@HeroRR amazing!! Do you need to press the clutch to downshift? Or because its blips the throttle its like the downshift autoblippers on the even newe 2020 bikes??
Awesome stuff man. Happy to say, that I got my CBR600RR about a week ago!! Love your content bro, ride safe!
Good morning from India
Hope all fine there with you brother.
Once notification pops it’s like jump to your vedio first.
And congratulations again for your new ride. Safe ride!more miles , memories and vedios to come.
I own 2004 Yamaha R6 old machines are sweet wthout much electronics jus RAW power .
Thanks .
hehe, same here! check out my bike too, am from Hyderabad!
@@Vibe.. I have watched your vedios bruh.😜😁,subscribed too. Am from namma bengaluru.
Do you notice the difference going from a Japanese motorcycle to a European one?
Such a nice bike, ride safe!
Thats awesome man, I just got mine (same exact one) about a month ago and I LOVE it, I'm sure you will too.
Great video, love the HP4!
Loving it, takes me back to my first impressions. You were being very civilised! It's such a do all pussycat character like that but omfg it's savage when you dial into it and burn the carbon off the thing. Check the service records for when it got fresh oil in the suspension, as good as it feels now... get a refresh planned so you have it in it's perfect state. Then you'll love it even more and know it's right. Enjoy your HP4 journey dude!
gotta admit, i love my cruise control on my 2016 s1000xr.. but the heated grips are nice too.
i will never forget the feeling of the pull of a 1k. After starting out on a 600rr. I went with the gsxr. I personally love the bmw but as a mechanic i dont want any part of bmw service lol. Good luck with the new bike. Always get the suspension set for your weight and riding style. Best 60$ you can spend on a bike. A good shop should be able to set it in a few mins for ya
Always keep you fingers on the front break
Great video!
Looks like power 5s, good tire especially for summer
Looking amazing. The only thing I'd change is the remaining anodized blue parts - especially the levers. Then again I'm a sucker for OEM+
THose things are always ugly
Yeah anything anodised reminds me of Chinese alibaba trash. Those levers look cheap
" will be driving nice and slow ...."
on a S1000RR., Yeah Right ....
haha, I was going pretty slow for an S1K ;)
The HM quickshifters are a trick piece of kit. You can completely customise it and you get good starting point numbers from the company. Get in touch with them to learn more!
Go with the new Michelin Road 6. Tires are awesome and very sticky. Just put a set my 2013 Honda VFR 1200 F. The Michelin Road Pilot 4's were done.
I also have a nicely restored 1984 Honda VF 700 F Interceptor, Freddie Spencer color scheme, with Pirelli Sport Demons. I had the same 84 Interceptor in 750cc back in the late 80's early 90's when I was in the Marine Corps. Stupidly sold it. Regretted it for years. Found the 700 in 2019 in central PA and had to have it. Wife's eyes rolling. You've got nice rides. Ride safe brother!!
My favorite bmw besides the M1000RR, I’d definitely get one of these later this year, it’s the pops on the upshift for me on a Sc project or Racefit 🔥
Love the color of that bike!
Yeah. No more waiting long months for a new video. I hope you keep up with the regular videos, bro...even if they're not deep.
Beautiful, beautiful,machine bro! 😍
Congrats bro, beautiful machine! Kudos for going back to the factory mirrors, they always work better than the aftermarket BS.
The price of these bikes is constantly rising, being a special edition, but nice to know that you actually wanna ride it, instead of making it a garage queen.
And yes looking forward to some track action where the beast can show its real face,
then the explanation why you said you wont need a liter bike but still got one, haha..
2014 and first ride, saving it for a pretty day lol nice bike
Nice bike. Will look for you next month when I go to the Cape
What people forget (or don’t know) is the top 1000+ sport bikes have all the best kit… best brakes, tyres, suspension etc than smaller cc bikes that make them go, stop and handle much better and safer than a smaller cad bike with ‘cheap’ low spec suspension, brakes and tyres etc, so if you can control your wrist the 1000cc sports bikes are better and safer it pretty much every way.
Awesome bike by the way. Definitely a collector in future years.
As someone who started on a supersport for that reason, I have to disagree. Even tho smaller cc bikes will most likely have inferior equipment, under "normal" riding, you are probably not riding hard enough to find their limits.
I would have said sportsbike vs other bikes rather than up/sub 1000
cbr zxXr gsxr all do great compared to SV ninja(er6n) katanas etc
@@johnporf9546 this is partly true, only because people don’t know or a lazy to set the bike up for their weight and ability but this works for a light weight bike as much as a sports bike. But set the bike up correctly and the 1000cc+ super bike will handle and stop better with greater limits than the smaller bike, that’s just a fact.
yeah, thats not how it works at all. For street riding literally nothing these bikes come with is needed, and funny enough on track most of the "fancy" parts on these bikes need to be upgraded to be competitive. Start on a ninja400-R7 unless you want to progress incredibly slow in learning. Not saying you cant learn how to commute on large bikes, but you will be learning much slower than anyone who started on a smaller bike. These "safety nets" are not meant to be safety nets, they are meant to extend the limits of vastly more skilled riders. TC for example does not give you more traction it controls your throttle to maintain and work with the grip you have. I have witnessed a bmw sbk rider get scolded for not triggering traction control enough because "if your traction control isnt being triggered on every corner, you arent riding this bike fast enough". Under most racing class rules, if manufacturers want to use these types of tech to improve their speed and time, it needs to be a feature that they have included on their bikes to sell to the consumer market. So really most of these features not only were never meant to be "safety nets", but rather tools used by professionals to push their limits. Except abs, but funny enough some GP teams use variations of abs to control the rear wheel lift in corners.
@@jamest5149 1,000cc+ superbike will naver handle nowhere near as good as 600 supersport.
Your statement is completely false
In all my 33 years riding and countless bikes owned.. I’ve never ridden a bike with a quick shifter. Nice bike though.. I already have 5 bikes but I’m now on the lookout for a 250 2T 😁
Langen?
Beautiful bike
My favorite bike... Nice video, nice and undestndable explanation with "I don't need to go with 180 to feel, to know it is fast...".
Blipper / shifter- don't use them 1st to 2nd and reverse. If you want to feel it smooth and have a lot of fun using them, you need to use more throttle for the shifter and way more brake power, than you have used in the video, for the blipper (again w/o 1st to 2nd and back).
Thanks! On the downshifts when you're braking, does the auto blipper work better when the revs drop or are high? I guess I can always play around around with it.
@@HeroRR my s1000xr 21 downshifts amazing down from 6 though 1 do smoothly any RPM .. the up shift is smooth effect first to second unless your on it and higher rpm... I usually manually study 1 and sometimes 2.. fourth and sixth are butter..
Reverse?
@@HeroRRbasically, wide open throttle for the quick shifter to feel good. Completely closed throttle for the auto blipper to feel good. You don’t have to let the rpm’s drop a bunch just close the throttle and then shift
One thing I'll tell ya after moving from Hondas to the bmw.. Drop your tire pressures. Do not use the 36/42 swing arm pressures. You'll just spin out your rear and kick off the traction all the time and buck around turns. Check the specific recommendations from the manufacturer of the tires being used and go from there. For reference.. on my Diablo Rosso Corsa II's I've been doing 34f/33r and it's perfect.
Good stuff brother. Good for removing those tard winglet mirrors. Only other bike I'd get is probably an s1000, probably not the HP4 but the standard 2015 and up is nice. What tyres did you get for the bike?
They looked like the road 5s. Great tires
Looks like Michelin Power 5 to me.
@@rhemyis one of the two, definitely a Michelin though
Michelin Power 5s
@@tylerjones1645 if you dont like it dont watch it?
[not an investment] Right on! Preach!
Great bike 🏍bro awesome they so fast I just raced one 😀
The clutch freeplay tolerance on the s1000rr is supposed to be set very tight, I’m talking like 1mm, adjust it to that and you should have results finding neutral.
Gr8 vid, hero. I personally luv the hp4, I think it's very affordable for the performances you are looking for; most bang for the bucks (second to the z900 or mt09). I prefer the stock mirrors over the blades. Anyway, ride safe, god bless u.
My favorite bike TH-camr got my favorite bike ever existed? What a coincidence.
A piece of my heart and very much of my love always❤
Nice bike I hope I can buy one someday
Brother, do you remove all the zx14r built videos? Seems I can't find it on your channel. I really loves those videos I wish I could rewatch it again
nice! I'm disappointed that you didn't sell me zx14r.
I appreciate your dissatisfaction with the mirrors. mirrors are a must for squiding and general riding.
I just picked up a fat ninja and it literally took me a week to figure out how to ride it....i have a problem and the fat ninja is the fastest of them....ride on HRR.
A had an R1 that hated going slow. Through a built up area it would be chug chug chug. On the high revs OH BABY!!!
Nice Vidio Buddy. I like your style!
Except the front, I do like the looks of the bike but would not change my Honda for it. Enjoy and ride safe!
This is my Dreambike since it was released
I know you've ridden one, but; I am kind of surprised you don't have a BlackBird.
It is my favorite bike I've owned and still keeps up with modern liters in the twisties.
No it doesn't keep up in the twisties unless everybody's just cruising.
It's nowhere near as fast in straight line or in corners as modern superbike.
You must be joking or just lying to yourself LOL
Maybe one day I will. They're just kinda expensive for what they are. Incredible bikes and getting rarer, but I can't justify spending 6-7k on a BB.
You should do some trackday content and really test your bikes out.
Wareham 🔥 would be awesome if we could get a big ride together un the state forest. I think it would make an epic video!! Ride safe bro!
Sick bike bruh. Enjoy and be safe. The one and only question. How does it compare to the 954. Engine wise, torque, gearing etc. Besides the extra 3.500 RPM where it gains the extra horses.
👍
Off the line it's not much of a difference in terms of power. After 3k RPM it does have more power though and especially on the top end it has a ton more power. The torque feels pretty similar to be honest. Both bikes feel light and even though I believe the 954 is about 12lbs lighter for some reason the BMW feels lighter.
@@HeroRR Nice thanks. I read at some places drivers saying the S1000RR was the only bike giving them the same playful and complete experience as the 954. After them owning 8 or more bikes. Who knows when I win the lottery I can put my 954 behind glass to glare and care for it. 😂
Funny thing is the highway I feel the safest. Everyone's going the same direction and can escape bad situations with the shoulder. I really wanna see you open it up on a stretch lol
He will never rev it nowhere near the powerband.
He's the kind of person that revs a bit in 6th gear and goes Whoa Oh Oh Oh Oh Oh so much power it's unbelievable.
Buys a fast bike, goes on almost empty highway and will not even redline it once on first 2-3 gears to see how it goes.
Wooooooooaaa Oh Man!!! it's fast
At 4,000rpm in 6th gear LMAO
@@dr.jillalicecooper2587 thats true but its better to have more people like him on this planet than people that try 200mph top speed runs in every situation, i dont get it either but thats him
@@dr.jillalicecooper2587 Have you seen my ZX14R video? lol Also I'm not going to go redlining a brand new bike to me (less than 20 miles) when I don't know it. I'll open it up, it just takes some time. Also I'm not trying to impress anyone, there's plenty of redlining top speed videos out here on TH-cam if that's what you're after.
@@HeroRR Nobody said to do a top speed run and sure it wasn't Doctor's recommendation.
Don't go from one extreme (you going at turtle's pace) to another extreme running top speeds LOL
There's lots of between the two.
Topping first and then second gear won't let you past probably 115-120mph on that bike
135-140 in third
Just quick burst of power to experience the full accelerarion in first 2 or 3 gears.
It's not a new bike so no waiting and no break in periods.
You should try the put the gopro on chest so that both the bike (petrol tank n cockpit) and road view are visible. On the helmet cam, when you crouch while speeding the view ahead gets reduced
The auto downshifter isn't really meant for low speed/rpm use. If you're in 2nd coming to a stop, just use the clutch.
The beautiful thing about the HP4 is that even in stock form it will take your breath away with the insane power it has.
Is it reliable? What time said? Thanks if you inform me : )
@@MrMassive321 I haven't had any issues with it, its been pretty reliable and it has about 22k miles on it.
@@mechveteran01 thank you 👍
You don't have to leave your key in the gas cap on the s1000rr. Unlock the gas cap slide the key out when you close the gas cap press down and it locks itself.
oh man, I think can hear that header valve rattling, I have a 2010 and It rattles like hell, gets worse when the bike gets hot due to the cable get looser due to the heat soak. I've ordered a new Bowden cable to hopefully address that. Regarding the neutral I find It easier to go from 2nd to N than from 1st.
Be careful out there . Your rc51 ??? Hopefully you still have it n last I remember you had to lay it down . Hope things are good
Yeah I just put a Race tools quickshifter/auto blipper on my 2012 R1 and it's giving me hell putting it in neutral. Sometimes it'll go most of the time it won't. Pretty damn annoying that's for sure
Did you sell the Kawasaki too? 😓 Btw love this bike especially those shark vents on the side.
I’m about to buy a 2012 S1K here in Australia, buy is $12k and has a bunch of mods, it’s from a dealership and I’ve only ever ridden a ZX6R, 650NK and a few other bikes but nothing 1000cc
Did you just say heated grips? I’m definitely getting one in the future
So next video we're going to see you sending it in the lower gears? 👀 Just give the QS time, it's actually pretty satisfying if you're going full throttle. And you don't always have to use it tho. Around town I actually never use my QS, it's also not great to use it with low RPM's
Agreed but It's still hell to find nuetral after the install just don't get it.
@@theman200831 Probably QS setting related, where it's so touchy you keep skipping neutral. He could actually adjust that
@@CaptainCrossplane thanks man I appreciate the that info I'll definitely ask him about it.
@@CaptainCrossplane He will never redline that bike in lower gears LMAO
You dont need the RC51 anymore. Ill buy it
I see u 😏 🤣
WINTER WEATHER OUT!?!?! DUDE...........how LONG do You take to film your videos here and upload them to your channel!?!? Lol. It's almost JUNE NOW!!! How long ago did You film this video!?!? Lol. Just wondering!!! (Great Video Btw!!!) : >)
Nice bike mate, very happy for you.
Glad you sold the 954, it felt like a lemon. Sad to see the Kawasaki go.
What would you say is quicker. The BMW or Kawasaki?
Be safe mate.
BMW is quicker all around. The ZX14R was different in terms of how smooth it felt on the highway, It would do 160 and you felt like you were going 100. I still cannot understand how that bike did that. The HP4 is faster all around, but you know you're going fast when you get up there.
@@HeroRR great analogy. I purchased a Blackbird based on your reviews and ride video. I am guessing the Kawasaki was similar.
Enjoy the HP4 non the less and be safe 👍
Hey you should update your motorcycle in the description
Nice ride, I am thinking about getting a 2016 S1000R myself after seeing this I really think I should :)
HeroRR 3 years ago " Why i wont get a 1000cc super bike"
HeroRR Today " FiRsT Ride On my UlTrA rArE BMW HP4!!! "
lol sick bike man i really dig these
when will you race gixxer bruh?
i bought second hand full system exhaust same as you but what weird is the valve that connect to the servo always in an open position? Is this normal? I thought it's suppose to be partially open in normal and open when accelerate
would be awesome to ride with you
Time to edit your description " my motorcycles"
What did that beauty cost you?
Found a low milage ‘13 HP4 listed for $14k… think it’s a better route to go than spending $20k on a ‘20+ ?
If you don't want the Winglet mirrors, would you be able to send them to me? 😁
im looking at the cbr 900rr sc33. Any thoughts?
What brand is that up/down quick shifter? Looking to get one for my 2013 HP4.
if i may answer i think it might be the alpha racing quick shifter. but i may be wrong. but nonetheless i would recommend the alpha racing quick shifter
HM quickshifter, I can't decide if I like it or not.
Just get a Sp Race Unit 😈
I can't believe you got rid of rizoms winglets. Cost me almost$500 for mine
They weren't Rizoma's, knock off ebay brand. I still have them but not for long.
can you please share the link for that mobile holder.
Thank you
You need to slow down your rebound so you can get rid of the bumpy.
lok
Just can't get over the awkward headlights.
that's the best part... it like a freak gf.
I hope you have new tyres and not old dry stuff.
Wow . I want one now 😹😹😹
Winglet mirrors just look amazing, sportbikes are not meant to be used with mirrors, those oem ones are actually horrible
When u are in the 1st gear move up or down the gear stick middle move not full move
I just wanted to point out the Quickshifter SHOULD NOT try to REV match when pulling the clutch it doesnt make sense its Propably not programmed Correctly. PLS check that out and why is there a after marked Quickshifter why not upgrade to the quickshifter with blipper from BMW i know its a little more expensive but you wouldnt have these Problems
Ive owned a few litre bikes and i always go back to a 600--why? the litre bike's power is so ridiculous that you barely use all of it. Personally, i like a 600--i can use the entire powerband and enjoy shifting through the gears. Just not the same experience on a litre.
Wareham mass good shit I'm right next to ya in Middleboro
It’s missing the HP4 rear sets, those look like the standard S1Krr sets
where are the kawasaki videos ?
Which is up-down quick shifter???
Hero S1000 double R
I have the same crappy mirrors on my RC51 that I just bought yesterday and they are absolutely terrible what a horrible decision especially on that bike
👍
Hello, is the "down" quick shifter is factory?
No, from the factory (to my knowledge) they didn't offer a "down" quick shifter. Mine is the 2014 and it has the factory quick shifter going up but not down.
@@mechveteran01 ok, I know as well, because i have one too :) Just what happened from 5:26 to 5:30 when You downshift with "throttle blipping?" I do that usually for downshift but Yous right hand did't do anything during downshifting :) at least it seemed to me.
Footage about a month old?
What Shell is that? Only $4.80 for 93
shell in a state that doesn't vote for communists!
@@9.5to1 he lives in Massachusetts. Not sure where but it’s definitely Massachusetts. I’ve been to many places that he’s ridden.
@@Motolympics well here is some advice from somebody living in a communist (socialist) occupied country we pay the equivalent of 7.3usd per gallon. So I can only hope the people of usa are smarter than the idiots in my country and vote for a america first person who believes in the constitution, in the 2024 election.
Every Euro sport bike I’ve been on has a hard time finding N
I've always been between this and the 2009 zx10r. I've decided to go for the zx10r but I still get second thoughts. I haven't bought any of the two yet anyway.
whats the end song?
Is that a south shore accent ?
Why did you ditch the cbr600rr?
Wym?
