    Hello, I'm BG Rides (aka Hollywood) because I like to make these TH-cam movies :) I love to ride bikes around the country and everywhere in between. Traveling on a bike is such an incredible feeling. A group of us go on our annual ~10 day bike trip each year. We love to ride, but really enjoy the journey and the friendships on the road. If you're thinking about getting into motorcycle riding, just do it, get the bike, don’t wait. No one's getting any younger and you're going to have a blast! It's all about the journey, the friendships, and the discovery! Get out there and see the country and I'll see you on the next ride :)

    One of the best motorcycles ever! I personally think Kawasaki should’ve make a facelift and continue this model instead of killing it.

    • @bgrides2108
      @bgrides2108  4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Yeah. Your right. Perfect bike that you can do just about any type of riding with.

    The last key is to remove the seat. Under the seat, among other things, you find a small compartment useful for paperwork, a small toolkit, and emergency cash.

    I have had mine for 11 years - you get used to it. I am 5'8 with a 30 inseam. Careful at low speeds and I have to get off to push it but its a great bike.

    Great review. I'm glad you sat on the bike and showed riding position. I'm looking at one and don't know how I'll fit... I'm 6'2" so I was hoping it would be a good riding position! Thanks.

      Thanks for watching. The handlebar risers are a really nice addition for taller people. It's actually a great touring bike and boy is it fast.

  • @heyitswesty
    @heyitswesty หลายเดือนก่อน +3

    the fact that they continue to make a modern sport touring bike without cruise control just baffles me. All of the other features could be amazing but they'll never do numbers with this bike without cruise control . Just unreal how stupid it is that they don't have cruise control.

    • @bgrides2108
      @bgrides2108  หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Yeah. We ended up putting one of those throttle control deals on it so you can give your throttle hand a break from time to time.

    I didn't know this bike existed, I only knew about the FJR1300. Those amenities are awesome, sport tourers are sweet. Glad all you guys found one another, safe rides

    • @bgrides2108
      @bgrides2108  4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yeah, it's a sweet bike. We've had a couple FJR's over the years. I would say the Concours is a better all around bike. Thanks for watching!

    I have a 2015 Concours 14 and it is unquestionably my favorite bike of all that I have had. I have the risers installed as well and they are great! Absolutely agree with them that this bike hauls balls! It must be respected…

    The shaft drive on my 2012 Concours locked up at 80 mph a couple of weeks ago. I skidded for about a block and nearly fell but didn't. The bike is awesome after a full titanium exhaust and ECU flash. I got mine up to 177 on the analog dash.

    Love the content. I've been enjoying my 2009 for a year now. Swapped such exhaust to tbr from zx14 (they are interchangeable) and even got to keep my centerstand! Ivan's flash and a V-stream windshield. Super happy with the purchase. Also have a roadstar warrior 1700 and a harley ultra. You are correct, a mature rider is required.

    Agreed... great sport touring platform and yes, oils and filter are easy. But wait until you try your first valve clearance check...

    Love that bike, I almost bought one. I am 5' 10" with a 31" inseam. I have had tall sport bikes before, but this bike is tall and big and wide. Uncomfortable for me to ride. Best for 6 ft. riders.

    How are the brakes? Trail braking?

    • @bgrides2108
      @bgrides2108  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Ron took this bike on our 2023 sumner trip. We normally go for a two week trip. It was his first trip and he's somewhat new to riding. It took it pretty easy, but I would imagine the bike would do great trail braking.

      Very true. An FJR is another nice bike but I'd probably go with the Concours 14.
