  • I had a lot of fun on the S1000R and enjoyed the similarities between my RR! I'm ready to jump out of my comfort zone with the next review. Harley? Cruiser? Touring bike?! YOU DECIDE! Leave a comment below.
    I want to make one thing clear about my motorcycle review/first ride videos... My intent with reviewing is NOT as a track rider, NOT as an expert, but as your everyday motorcycle enthusiast/rider excited to ride something new. If you'd like more technical reviews there are plenty of other TH-camrs who do them.

    I love these reviews so much! It’s cool to see you on different bikes 😁 I think it would be funny to see you ride an older bike like an early 00’s sport bike to see how much different it is!

    Another awesome review video u have me cracking up. You're awesome like always. I would make a suggestion, but I'm looking at getting a trike for my bike eventually mainly because I want 2 start going 2 D.C. with my fellow veteran's. U and Alex have a wonderful weekend.

    I love your reviews, I don't know what you're doing but these videos attract me so much. I've watched other youtubers doing reviews but I think they are not doing it correctly because I'm not that interested like I am on yours

    @jkozee 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Glad you liked the bike. I love mine. You mention stability in the front end. It has a steering dampener under the nose to help with that. It isn't top end Ohlins, but it works pretty well.

    Love this video. I just found out today about a 2nd hand 2018 BMW S1000R for sale with only 2.500km on the clock. that is around 1.500 miles. it looks like new. but I new nothing about the bike so I have started watching videos. before finding out about this bike I was considering the Kawasaki Z900 RS or the Yamaha GSX900. but I think I like the BMW more than both of them. what is your opinion of the 2018 S1000r in 2023 ? ( you ride an RR but you think you lean forward to much on the R ? )

  • @sullyheraud2219

    Boss review of a fantastic bike, Love the feel of upshifting at 7k and the popping when going back down the gears 2018 s1000r. Have to say the wind has never bothered of spedds up 190 kmh ( AUS)

  • @guardian7377
    @guardian7377 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    Did the bike have a quick shifter? Coz i noticed you didn't use the clutch to shift

  • @hawkrider88
    @hawkrider88 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    Sorry to bring up bad memories...but after your accident, did you have any aversion to lane splitting again? We don't have it here, but it keeps being brought up in the legislature. Also, I think this bike has a 32" seat height. Were you on the tips of your toes when you rode it? Thanks.

  • @rares99fm

  • @AmenCornerRider
    @AmenCornerRider 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Beautiful Ride, Beautiful Bike. You did a great job describing the single R. I absolutely love mine! I watched your Vids with the RR and knew the BMW was the way to go. I just didn't want to lean that far forward. Best decision ever Kat. I put the MRA windscreen on mine which really helped, and changed the exhaust to the smaller Akra. (your audio sounds amazing by the way). What would I like to see you ride next?... Triumph Street Triple RS baby! 💜 🏁

    @J.Hill49 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    You should definitely try a Harley Sport Glide. I have one and I love it. It’s a cruiser, but you can take the saddlebags and front fairing off and then you have a softail. A baby Street Glide essentially.

  • @FeedOnSpeed
    @FeedOnSpeed 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    another great review video! personally don’t care for naked bikes but it’s cool to see a different perspective. i think you should test ride a zx6r next just sayin 😉 (if i were in California i’d give you mine!)

  • @darrylm79
    @darrylm79 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Kat, this bike is amazing! I picked up an '18 S1KR Premium in Lupin Blue last week, just like the one at the end of your video. It will sit nice next to my '18 BMW K1600b like I have pictured in my profile pic. It rides so nice. You should add this to your stable of bikes. Nice review!

    • @ItsKatKam

  • @DeusRides
    @DeusRides 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I have this exact bike. 2018 S10000R. Regarding the suspension, it was probably set up on road. Which is very soft. Nice for long rides or city rides. There is also a dynamic mode which is for a more spirited riding. Regarding the feeling of the front end at high speed. It does... Over 200 kph, the front wheel feels light... Lastly, regarding wind protection... When traveling, going 130/160 kph, it is ok. Faster or with strong winds, you do miss a bigger windscreen... Just my two cents... Nice video! Cheers.

    Continuing this theme with the S1000XR that you parked beside would be fun, providing you're not too smol for it. Other than that, I'd definitely like to see cruiser rides. Maybe you could bring your sister on that one so she can give her perspectives having lived with a bike of that style?

      Ron Gittins DDC settings and engine maps are two different settings, when set in dynamic mode the engine map is different, power delivery is way more direct, wheelie control is active but limits at higher angle, abs trips later. Source : I have one of those sweet babies

      Ron Gittins well to be fair this is tricky because on the S1000R 2017 the DDC settings are the also called « road » and « dynamic » as are some of the power modes, but they are not accessible by the same buttons and are not linked one to another

I haven't done as much touring as I thought I would so it's time for some wind in the face riding. Incidentally, in every respect the XR is the best motorcycle I have ever owned.
