    I can relate to everything in this video. The M109R wasn’t quite my first bike, I rode a Honda CB600F for a few months first but it was still a massive jump for me when I bought the M109R. I will confess that I spent the first 2 weeks staring at it in awe in the garage 😂 My excuse was waiting for good weather! My philosophy is the same as yours was at the beginning, no matter what the bike is capable of, it will only do what you tell it to with the throttle. So I rode it well within its (and my) limits while I got the feel of it. The weight was intimidating when manouvering around the yard, but out on the road the low seat height means I can flat foot it at the lights. I can absolutely relate to what you said about breaking and the only thing I would change about this bike is to have ABS. Just like you, I had a close encounter with a truck that stopped suddenly but here in U.K. the roads are narrow and there was no chance to swerve. I wasn’t so lucky, I avoided hitting the truck and didn’t think I’d snatched the brakes but suddenly I was on the floor… in my case it was the front wheel that locked up. Cost me around 4000 dollars to fix everything and I now have a bone in my shoulder slightly displaced, but could’ve been much worse as I was wearing normal jeans that day (stupid I know.) I went over the whole thing in my mind many times and concluded that I had gone immediately for the front brake without using the rear which would’ve been OK on the Honda, but the weight distribution on a cruiser is different and there wasn’t enough weight already loaded on the front when the brake was really biting. Now it’s 50/50 front and rear, and keep going with the front as the weight moves forward. Cornering was another thing, apart from scraping the pegs a couple of times on the twisties, I soon figured that cornering on a bike this long with that big fat rear tyre trying to keep you straight requires special attention and needs to be planned well ahead. About that screen, mine actually came with the V Stream fitted, and I agree the bike probably looks better on the street without it but I kept it because of the occasional longer runs I do. I don’t regret going straight from the 600 to the M109R, it is all the bike I ever wanted, and now that I have got used to its specific characteristics I allow for them as second nature. Just like you I’ve been a road user for decades which has helped keep me out of trouble, sometimes I even think riding occasionally is safer because every time I get in the saddle I have that slight fresh tingle of nerves as my senses sharpen up and stay focused, and although I’m very comfortable on the bike these days, that is something I don’t ever want to lose by getting complacent. Ride safe buddy! 👍

I LOVE the layout and look of your channel right away because it's different and you put a lot of hard work into it for our enjoyment. That's badass and does not get overlooked by me, brother. I'm a re-entry rider, just got a 2001 Honda Shadow Spirit 750 in perfect turn key condition, and a 2004 Kawasaki Vulcan 1500 Classic that needs to go through the shop, but DAMN I'm So happy to be back riding ! EDIT : HOLY MOLEY you must be insane, at 1783 cc motor. Brother, you have my UTMOST respect. I rode Honda XR80's in junior high, and then had CB750, Interceptors, Harley, but NOTHING like that MONSTER.

    I got my license at 17, and started on a 75 CB750. It was more bike than I ever needed back in the early '90s. Weel after nearly 30 years without, the bug bit me again. I wanted a mid-level "beginner" bike to get my sea legs back, but i just couldn't find something that fit me right in the smaller class. The M109R was one of my 3 finalists, but i ended up with a Yamaha Warrior 1700. I know what you're talking about, with that 1st gear throttle sensitivity! I almost slid off the back of her a couple weeks ago... a light turned green while I was slowing down, then rolled on the throttle in 2nd gear 😂

    Dude, thank you for an exhilarating ride! I'm 72 and have owned at least a dozen motorcycles. My last one was a 2008 HD Fat Boy which took me all over Southern California and yes, all year round, even up into the San Bernardino Mountains as long as snow and ice was not an issue. That's my favorite ride...fresh mountain air. Using your GoPro and comm as you rode just made it as though I was the rider. As soon as our governor gives us our "get outta jail" card I'm heading up to PA to look at a M109. I sold my Fat Boy in 2014 and decided to give up riding...wrong decision. I found myself while on lock down gravitating towards motorcycle videos and missing the experience. I couldn't help but notice your tank bag and I always rode with one, keeping my EDC items, maps, even a small thermos with either coffee or a cold drink in it. Great stuff...stay safe!

      Thanks for checking out my video and I'm glad that you are getting back out there. This lockdown has increased my desire to ride even more. I'm in the DC metro area so being that most people are off from work, there's virtually no traffic so I finally get to "enjoy" my rides. I wish you luck in getting a 109. They are beautiful machines! Keep me posted once you land on one and stay safe as well!

    There are advantages to riding a big bike. I did my learners on a 70cc small bike. It was shocking how many cars pulled out in front of me. Cut me off. Tried to merge into me. I wondered how bike riders survived. I ditched the small bike and bought the biggest bike available at the time. A big black cruiser. Instantly riding became safer. Cars seen me, heard me, got outta my way.

      I can relate to this statement to a degree. I say to a degree because I don’t have my license or a bike. However growing up I rode dirt bikes and about 5 years ago I visited my father and he and my step mom rode. I went riding with my father a lot. He had a Honda VTX 1800 and my step mom had the 1300. I rode the 1300 first then my fathers. After getting on the 1800 there was no way I could ride the smaller one. The larger bike felt safer and being a big guy, it was just more comfortable for me in every way. He sold the 1300, my step mom took that and he picked up a Rune. That bike was a beast and rode as smooth as a Cadillac. I lost my father last October and I’m now 50 and decided now is the time for me to get my license and a bike and enjoy. I’m eyeing M109’s as my first bike and planning when to take my course. Safe riding!

    I actually think this is the way to do it.
    I bought a Honda Shadow 750 for my first bike. My wife was anti-motorycle, so i never considered the passenger seat when buying a bike.
    I WHIPPED that shadow. For exactly 3 weeks.
    In week 2 i got my wife on the back. She loved it. I immediately looked for a big touring bike with a bigger, more comfortable back seat. Went up to a Vulcan 1700 with V&H, pC5, Ivanized, and put a batwing on it. The increased power and weight made me slow down. Im actually way more careful BECAUSE of the power, weight and cost.
    Dont get a beginner bike. Get your ideal bike. Its better to be scared for the first 100 miles than it is to be comfortable.

    I am in a similar position. 41 years old, and I bought my first ever motorcycle a couple months ago to be my new daily driver. 2005 Honda VTX 1800. I completed the MSF riders course 10 years ago, then I did not end up getting a bike. I took the MSF course again last month after buying my 1800. Its a big bike, but I am having a blast! The M109R caught my eye, but I think one muscle cruiser is good enough for me...for now. Stay safe and enjoy the ride.

    If your speedo is off a bit, one of the first and the easiest things you can check, is tire size, compare the recommended stock size to what you're wearing, many people change out the stock tires for a fatter one, and fail to get the sidewall height correct in the process.

    Im in a similar situation to when you were starting, Im 36 now and just getting into riding. My father in law has ridden bikes his whole life so hes got a lot of wisdom and knowledge about bikes.
    Im debating between getting a Suzuki M90 as a first bike, which seems to have a much more forgiving torque and power band compared to the M109, while still having a similar look.
    Obviously the m109 is the flagship, but im a little concerned about trying to learn to ride on the m109.
    Do you think the m90 would be a good choice as a bike to learn on and grow into?
    My uncle in law also has a ton of bikes and my father in law was going to talk to him about possibly lending me a bike to learn on. If that pans out then i might end up buying the m109 if the right price comes up.
    Appreciate your videos. Thanks

      krymsix It's a big bike but it carries it's weight very well and has a low seat height and centre of gravity. It sits well on the road and is relaxing to ride compared to a sports bike. The power delivery is nice and linear with no surprises. Plenty of low down grunt, good brakes and very comfortable. It's an easy bike to ride but be aware that it's heavy and requires a bit of physical input when changing direction. It doesn't ride nor handle like a sports bike but it still handles well, although the rear shock is poor. The M90 looks similar but is quite different power wise, as the M109 has numerous engine differences which make it more powerful. Do you have ANY motorcycle experience? Dirt riding perhaps?

      @@SMHman666 No significant motorcycle experience. Right now I've been getting my gear situated. I've got my permit and my father in law has been nice enough to let me use his motorcycle in a parking lot.
      My uncle in law is hopefully going to sell me an inexpensive bike to get some more regular riding time in before it snows here.
      My plan is to get whatever practice time I can in parking lots before the winter then do the rider safety course in the spring.
      The weight is really the biggest thing that is a concern since the Suzuki bikes seem to be heavier than the Kawasaki, Yamaha and Honda cruisers.
      Both the 109 and 90 are even heavier than my father in laws Indian but the weight might be a little more stable, his Indian seems to sit a little taller (2001 Indian limited edition Scout, thing is awesome)

      @@krymsix574 Getting some miles under your belt is good as is the safety course. They'll teach you defensive riding which is so important.
      The M109r probably isn't the best bike to learn on, to be honest, and when you drop it (and you will) she'll be a handful to pick up. It is fairly easy to ride but that's coming from a guy with lots of experience. It doesn't surprise you or do anything nasty but it's a big bike with loads of grunt.
      You mentioned snow and that's where experience comes in (and rain). If you get the chance to do some off road riding, go for it as it will show you what to expect when a bike gets out of hand. Skills that will be handy in the wet, snow, muddy or slippery roads, etc.

    Great video and nice bike. And I appreciate your input and you sharing your experiences. I might suggest that you increase following distance given the standard brakes on that bike. The near miss accident with the pick up truck you described is a case in point. Not only was it impossible for you to make an emergency stop, the person behind you did not have enough time to react either. Increasing your following distance would make it safer for you from what is in front of you, and what is behind you.

I was starting to think it was because maybe I just "thought" I wanted to ride, so I gave it another try and bought a sportster...turns out, it was just Harleys that were the let down to me. I built them up too high in my mind all the years of dreaming about them, then they didn't live up to my vision of being this badass biker ripping down the road lol.

Practiced in a parking lot with the 109 every night for 3 weeks before I could get it to corner without stalling or dropping it. ( I dropped it twice.).

After a lot of research I bought my '17 late in '18 season. Wanted the grey but got a great deal on the blue/black. Did 10k miles and 18 states last season. You cant beat a 9 for the money.

    I love your bike. Question: ppl say, M109R shouldn't be your beginner bike. Can't I still learn how to ride on that bike? I want a daily commuter with power that turns heads, then take that bike out of town too with the right touring configuration. I'm a noob, but I have ridden the Harley Davidson Road Glide, Street Glide and Kawasaki Voyager for a test ride after my class at HD. We trained on the 500cc bikes. Once I get my first bike [M109R] can I still learn on that too. The other bikes I'm looking at are the Yamaha FJR1300 and the Honda ST1300. My favorite bike is the Victory vision and the Victory Cross country and Cross road. Your thoughts please thank you. Ride safe. I live in Texas.

    Okay I saw your video back a few years ago. I have been researching the M109R and really getting into that bike. I bought a Honda 1100 VT and have been riding it for well up until now and in the future most likely. I say that because I just bought my dream bike. The M109R. I have to pinch myself.
    Long story short I am now watching your video again.
    I have to say, everything that you described about the first time you're on the highway and every feeling you had was exactly my experience getting on the highway on my Honda with trucks passing me by. not because I was unable to keep up but because the wind and everything else was a bit overwhelming. My speedometer was off a bit so I thought I was keeping up but of course I was not. It was seriously intimidating and a bit nerve-racking. It took getting used to.
    Now of course it's cake.
    Fast forward to the M109R....
    I am waiting for the weather to break to take my new bike and open her up a little. I only drove her home 23 mi from the dealership in basically rush hour traffic.

      Congratulations Joseph! Just take it easy. The first time out can be very intimidating. Even once you think you have a grasp of her, don't get too comfortable and take risks just yet. There is a lot to learn about the abilities of this bike. She is very powerful and while the breaks are solid, it doesn't take much to lock-up your tires. Give yourself plenty of room. The first thing I did was practice my turns and learning the friction zone of the clutch. Without any modification to your fuel delivery via a flash or power commander, trying to take turns with consistent power can be tricky. Hit me up if you have questions! Enjoy your new beast!

It really makes the bike allot more easy to control. also an ATRE (transmission retarder eliminator) makes the engine in low gears much smoother. www.gmanindustries.com/shop/pc/ATRE-Suzuki-M109R-p742.htm , www.g2ergo.com/throttle-tamer-for-dirt-and-street-bikes/.

I do miss my M109, BTW If you tac out 4th gear to the 7-71/2 rpm, you can peg out that needle to 150mph and she'll hold!

      That's a nice bike! How long have you had it? Yes, I hated that twitchy throttle, but once I got the ECU flashed, it was a completely different experience.

    Great video. I am also thinking about purchasing that model motorcycle. You mentioned the close call with a pickup. Something that I learned from my riding experience, that might help. Or maybe you already do this technique is to approach stops with extra space between the vehicle in front of the bike and the vehicle behind you. I use my mirrors to observe the approaching vehicle and the extra space in front of me allows me to move up, if needed. Or if the exit lane is occupied. I appreciated and enjoyed your video very much. I rarely comment on the plethora of videos I watch but thought maybe it would help. Rubber down. I cant wait to ride this beautiful machine.
    Sincerely

    I bought a 2019 Suzuki M109R BOSS as my first bike also and didn’t even had a motorcycle endorsement either. Just want to say I love the M109, it’s gorgeous and it’s powerful! Definitely not a beginner bike BUT if you respect it, she’ll be nice to you and soon you’ll be falling in love with it.

      @Dreadpool-BRMC  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks man! I would have never imagined that the experience on a sports bike would be similar, especially being behind fairings and in the tucked position. It is amazing how you think that you are traveling at a decent speed according to the speedometer but in your mind, you are traveling at warp speed, holding on for dear life! LOL It doesn't bother me now, as this is my 3rd season with it. Well, stay safe out there!

      He has the same exact bike and exhaust as mine. Its the Hard Krome VPR black short 2 into one system. I think its the best sounding for the 109. I had short dump pipes for a couple weeks until I replaced them with these. The dump pipes were the loudest I have ever heard on a v twin.

    This was my 2nd bike.my first one was a yamaha vstar650 wich i sold after 2 weeks after buying it.The m109r was a dream to ride.now i'm riding a suzuki gsx s1000 but i'm saving to buy another m109r.

    • @Dreadpool-BRMC
      @Dreadpool-BRMC  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      LOL, maaaan, I hear so many people that have gotten rid of their m109r and eventually make their way back. I was considering a trade but I've decided to keep it and just buy a 2nd. LOL

    Question: how do you get the data at the bottom of the screen ?

    • @Dreadpool-BRMC
      @Dreadpool-BRMC  4 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      Congratulations man! The data was extracted from my GoPro Hero 7. You can use the software that comes with it but the overlays are basic and standard so I purchased a software called RaceRender. I hope that helps!

    I bought a 2015 Kawasaki Vulcan 900 Classic as my first bike, learned to drive motorcycle with it for one summer and about 1500km then got the bike I really wanted a 2018 2300cc Triumph Rocket 3 Roadster :)

      @Dreadpool-BRMC  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Sorry for the delay, but I took some time away, things were pretty busy for me. I learned from the folks I ride with and just picking up tips and tricks from the veterans. The gloves are the Dainese MIG C2.

    Love your bike man. The M109R is a beast. I have an M50 myself and also noticed my speedometer is about 5 mph off, too. I was wondering if that was a Suzuki thing.

    • @Dreadpool-BRMC

    Great Bike Im 47 just got my first bike this past feb as well as my licence. I started with a Suzuki C50 and a year later im already thinking of upgrading. Stay safe... What tank bag are you using?

    • @Dreadpool-BRMC
      @Dreadpool-BRMC  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I certainly understand and that's why I said, screw it, I'm getting what I want. LOL The tank bag is made by Cortech. It' has quite a few magnets and it holds strong. I've never had it slide and I've done some hard highway riding. It also serves me as a little gut rest when I'm on the highway and leaning forward a bit to cut down on the bobble-head effect from the wind.
