      All day everyday. Learning speed to gear ratios over a few months lets you ride without ever looking at what gear you're in, but there is no replacement for an accurate fuel indicator. Average trip calculations only work with average riding, but lets say you've been hard at it lately, you will have no idea how much is actually left until the light flashes. Fuel gauges are a must on all bikes, especially in 2020. ffs Honda, why go back on this.

As you say, it's an issue that can be worked around, but lack of fuel gauge has no real replacement.

    Yall weird, I would MUCH rather see my fuel gage that my gears. 1 down 5 up isn't too difficult to remember. If im going long distance and forget what gear im in, I just shift up until I hit 6th which only usually 1 or 2 more up. Its way less convenient than having to open my gas tank every time I ride to physically look inside the tank to figure out if I have enough fuel to get to where im going or not

      It's just HeroRR I think, everyone else I know would take fuel gauge over gear indicator any day. It actually has an irreplacable function, but the gear indicator is about convenience and only really useful in the beginning when you're getting to know the bike.

    While I have looked at all your videos, and like your insight, I want to re-share something from your videos that is way more important in my opinion than all the little details. Having owned 37 motorcycles, and currently have 3 in my garage, none of which are currently sportbikes, I have decided to pick up a 2020 CBR600RR tomorrow, brand new, no miles even though it hasn't won a shootout in more than a decade. First and formost is, the comfort aspect. Having ridding over 1 million miles in my lifetime on a motorcycle, I appreciate comfort to ride all day, and multiple days, over how a bike feels for the first couple hours on the road. I bought my first CRB600 back in 1994, and rode it up and down the coast and central mountains of California more times than I can remember with a smile on my face every time i got on it. Second, I have never had any sort of bike failures on any Honda I have owned, and I am definitely not a "Honda Fan", as they are usually not my choice when looking at the overall line of bikes. I sat on all the new 600's and my least favorite was the Kawasaki, because my wrists hurt, just sitting on it on the showroom floor. The Honda had the best ergonomics, as I am 6'1" and 215 lbs. with long legs. The Suzuki was second best, but the seat was hard as a rock. The Yamaha was just to cramped for my overall size. Reliability is a big plus compared to the European brands, mostly in the electronics, and the 2020 model from Honda is the last year of the old electronics, which means that there is a ton of aftermarket performance and styling features available. I am close with the guys at Dynojet, and every time a manufacturer has updated their ECU's, due to emissions, noise, and safety requirements from the EPA, they have issues, and the bikes are almost unhackable. Bench tuning seems to be taking the place of aftermarket tuners in both cars and bikes. Which voids the warranty, and god forbid you have to take the bike into a dealer for service and he plugs it into the factory computer, and wipes away your custom tune, just to fix a simple little idiot light issue. At $2K less than a 2021, which they are not dealing on, since Covid, and production stoppages, and the cost of containers from overseas going up 4X what they were at the beginning of 2020, these bikes will price themselves out of the market. Fortunately, at my age, insurance rates are not what they were in my 20"s. A 22 year old (which I know well) had to sell his 600cc sportbike, because his insurance was $350/month, which is more than a bike payment in that price range. The other features I like about the 2020, is the fuel gauge, which disappeared for 2021. Being used to long trips, and planning out gas stops, knowing your fuel levels, as you pass towns and remote gas stations in the middle of nowhere, you get an idea that when your gauge is a 1/4 tank, and you see a station out in the boonies, you stop and fill up. Also, I have had serious VCM glitches with my fully electronic gauges, with all the ride mode, traction control, abs, and multi screen units, on my current Indian Challenger, my previous Ducati Mulistrada, Triumph Tiger, and KTM Adventure bike. Why the motorcycle manufacturers cannot build in completely reliable electronic dash boards like the auto manufacturers is beyond me. Maybe the heat and vibration, and compact size create issues you don't have in a car or truck. So back to the 600. After graduating to the 1000cc class with my next 2 sportbikes from Suzuki, then back to Honda, I found that the 1000's were just too much overkill in power, and got me freaked out too many times coming into corners too hot, because the accelleration is so quick, you hardly have time to think. The 600 with it's light weight and good brakes allows fast corner entries with mid corner corrections possible, as well as feeling fast coming out of the corner, while not actually going that fast. Remember, this is the street, not the track. And there is gravel and debris, and you are not really racing anyone (except maybe a buddy that you are just messing with). So any thoughts on my mindset or my decision are welcome!

      @HooligansMx 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I for the most part 100% agree!! It annoys me that with all these videos on cbr600s everybody gets soooo hung up on the emissions stuff out into these bikes now failing to realize that aftermarket support is huge especially if the bike no longer has a warranty it is not hard to find catless downpipes/headers programmable ecus etc my buddy has a 2020 and he really didn't care about the warranty and went ahead and pretty much eliminated anything to do with emissions on his bike it sounds amazing and he absolutely smokes my 2007 600. So ok you have to spend a little more money to get the power out of the 600s than you used to because of the emissions stuff when everyone should just be happy the us isn't as strict as Europe when it comes to bikes

    I think the additional rider aids will make it a much better bike package. It certainly looks better and I was also surprised with Honda keeping the under seat exhaust and not finally changing it to something like the 1000. The 18 lbs? Really won’t make a difference as I’m sure they will have it in the right place (a small trade for higher tech). The indicators, you have a valid point however like the “weight” those things are removed when the thing is stripped down, all lights removed, stock fairings changed for far lighter ones for its ultimate purpose. To win on the race track! The increase to the rev limiter will help that and it never about which bikes make more power anyway. Traction control/anti wheelie is something to argue about. Is it needed on a bike that doesn’t really make much torque? I don’t know about you but if your sitting on a starting grid at full rpm 2 seconds before the lights turn green, the difference on getting a good start and bad can make a huge difference in where you finish. Overall the bikes gets a big thumbs up from me! I would have it over the 1000 mainly because who really can get anywhere near what that bike is capable of achieving. Anyway loved hearing your thoughts. Keep up the great work! 👍😎

Once you exit out and put it into gear the screen will most likely revert to it's normal state and the fuel gauge will be in the bottom left corner instead of the mode indicator

    How come you like gear indicators that much? Did I understand it correctly that you would rather have a gear indicator than fuel gauge?
    Personally I consider both optional, but like seeing my fuel more. Mostly because consumption goes up and down alot depending on how I ride, so keeping track of it with trip counter kinda sucks. With gearing I dont really pay attention to what gear im in for the most part anyway, I just shift up or down depending on the rpm regardless, and always go to gear 1 upon a full stop.
    Genuinly curious since I usually seem to agree with your views on things

Cornering ABS is mainly software based technology and a small gyroscopic sensor - all of which can fit in a smartphone package, if you wanna compare weight difference.

    Thank you for your video. I have to agree with all your remarks about this new RR model. Honestly I don't understand what Honda is doing or planning to do. In the latest years all I see (in Europe, at least) is seeing Honda running after the Adventure segment trying to take a piece of the BMW Adventure market with the Africa Twin and not much more than that. I love Honda bikes, but if I had to buy a new bike, I probably wouldn't buy any Honda. I don't feel "represented" in their current catalog.
    You mentioned corner ABS and the fact is that all Euro bikes have it from Aprilia to KTM. Despite Euro brands call it by their brand names, it all sums up to Bosch MSC system.
    I think I would even risk and buy an Aprilia or Ducati. I know that they are not as reliable or even cheaper to maintain as a Honda, but...
    Even today I saw the new Aprilia RS600 and she's a beauty. Expensive, as well, but looks very good and with top components. You should take a look into it.

You have to go thru your menu Settings, like for example, where you see Rev's, right below the CBR Logo, right bottom corner, you would go thru Settings up/down arrow ↕️ button and change Rev to Gal ,which would read
    ( Gal 4.8 ). So basically it's digital by gallons and numbers, it would start counting backwards, like 3.8 then 2.8 then 1.8 and that's how 🤔 you would monitor your gas ⛽.
