Waiting for the full review by sarge #PdArmy #NotificationSquad
PowerDrift Miss Sarge already! 😭
PowerDrift It's a competition going on. Slipper Clutch and Atleast as a cost cutting factor, they would have brought single channel ABS or Dual Channel if they could. Looks Like mini R6
F...! Miss sarge 😡😡
Sagar kaha hai. Uske bina PowerDrift unsubscribe kar dega sab
Varun is the younger sibling who is constantly compared to the elder child who is better at some things. Some people just won't accept that you are doing a fantastic job. Instead they will rather reminisce about Sarge.
Hope we will see Sarge soon back on PD. Until then keep up the good work Varun.
Can we all just shut up about "missing sarge" and "bringing back sarge"? Yes Sarge was and is an absolute legend, but he has moved on to something that he feels is the right thing to do at this point in HIS life. Varun is great in his own way and we should respect/appreciate that instead of being despicable little shits on every video.
Thank you for the support, Gaurav. Your comment would surely help us create even better content for you! :D
PowerDrift More power to you guys! Keep the content coming :)
I don't know why all of a sudden PDarmy has become Hatersarmy😶
Yes Sarge was one of the most important person in PD and no one can replace him, but we have to understand that Sarge has his own dreams and PD is trying damn hard to find someone of equal charisma as Sarge..
Just one request to the PDarmy , please don't unsubscribe the channel. PD members have put years of effort to make our family so large.
🙏🙏 🙏 🙏 ✌️
Sigh! We always your support PDArmy! It helps us grow and make even bigger and better content for you all!
Raushan Kumar , not unsubscribed but sad sarg left PD
Unsubscribe? Never ever going to happen. You are the pride of India in motoring world. And I am sure you are going to keep that in the following years
Nithul Nath Agreed
Sagar took the hosting of pd to another level...
Bt there are no complaints that varun dose it very well too...
Love you both for making videos....
Just coz sagar makes all the video of reviews of the bikes...
I dont want to stop watching varun to make such kind of video...
I would rather like to watch both the host side by side making the videos.....
Yes i do miss sagar n i know it pretty well that he must be busy with his schedule....
Still lots i do have lots of love n respect for varun...
Guys at least give varun some time and chance. Being supportive at such time is what a good pal can do. 🏂🙇🏍️🏍️✌️🤘👏
Thank you for the support, Doc!
okay guys,hold your horses! this ain't a review but just a overview of r15 track purpose.n also we all love Sagar,n he has left PD for reasons best known.,now this guy here ,Varun painter ,is a valuable asset to PD.. never forget everyone is an underdog at initial phase.,so don't write him off,cos once Varun gets into the business,I'm sure he is gonna be a pro.. it's just that he has been left with huge shoes to fill in,n he needs time to exhibit his fullest talent.. I'm with PD,I'm with VARUN ..!!!
LOST_ Kid Did he leave powerdrift?
Ajay Sreekumar Yes
Ajay Sreekumar yeah .. sarge did his last review on Ducati .
Thank you for that support Lost_Kid. It means a lot to us!
PowerDrift made my day #pdarmy
Nothing is forever. Neither was Sagar at Powerdrift. Good job Varun, you'll get to it. Nobody has failed after trying. I liked the review. Thumbs up!
Glad you enjoyed the review!
PowerDrift every single time 😎
Just get a man's bike buy a 2020 R6, R1 or zx6r 636 or zx10r not these little baby girl bikes.
Varun did a good job stepping into Sagar's role. All the best.
ダナンジャイ why did Sagar quit ?
Of course , Sarge is the best .. but now, the time has come to give rest of PD team an opportunity to make PD as it should be. Keep up the pace team !!
Aye thanks, Anil! Varun and rest of the team would surely love to hear more from you on other videos too!
Sagar is a legend. No one can replace him no matter whoever come.
Sagar is definitely being missed but Varun .. you have done an awesome job ... !!! Cheers
Varun is great in his own way :-)
He is like more calm, different... and that's nice too.
Subhashis Thakur :)
I think we should stop with the unnecessary comparisons. These are two different people with two different personalities. Plus Sagar, Varun, Rohan, Glen, Sharan are faces that are backed by an entire ‘Team’.
I miss Sagar too but lets give others a chance and see what they bring to the tabel. Varun has done a great job here and even managed to get his knee down I see. Looks
Like everyone missed it 🤭
Keen eye, Karan. Probably we'll be seeing sparks from Varun too! ;)
Honestly, the content was good. It's established right at the beginning that it's more of an initial impressions video and not full review so those who are making comparisons ideally shouldn't.
Yes, Sagar was great but everybody moves on and the PD army was born because of the unprecedented content that they provided us as a "TEAM" and we must continue appreciating that.
Looking forward for full review:)
I've waited this for years and bought myself the phenomenal Duke 200😘😘😘😘😘😘
raghu ram if i were u, i would have gone for Rc200, bcoz of same supersporty riding stance and full fairing.
You did good ! ❤️
No regret ...duke far better than ***********
Yeah..... true nothing to regret 😎😎😎 Duke still stands on the top of 200cc category 😎😀😀😀😀
Without sagar riding i don't want to see this
Varun Tried His Best But SGT. SAGAR is LEGENDARY
Agreed Sagar’s review used to be much better! Its sad that he had to leave.
Expected more, this is nothing missing those goosebumps moments
Do stay tuned for the comprehensive review, Joan.
Ten years on and still no ABS!! Yamaha is motorcycle world's APPLE!!
will you buy Aprilia RS 150 over this when it launches?
no kawasaki is apple😂😂..the price of ninja 300(no abs)😂
POWER DRIFT, LOST ITS POWER.
Get Sagar back, trust me power drift you really need him. No SOul in this video.
srikanth rs sagar left powerdrift.. not the other way round.... you're complaining at the wrong forum
All the best Varun 👍 You are doing great.. all the important points covered, should definately be helpful for the ones looking to purchase.
This was strictly based on my experience at MMRT. A road review should happen as soon as we get our hands on the motorcycle.
You tested it at the best place, track is where a R15 belongs 👍 Enjoyed the review Varun Painter & hopefully I will see you LATER (😁😁 missed your outro, you should always do that..)
Apologies mate. :)
The Sportztourer , all the best to Varun but as Varun said shed the weight for knee down sparks in the video
Varun is no replacement for sagar...but he's on his own way..good job bro
Keep up your good work Varun . Please ignore this haters comments as they have no idea how much effort it takes to create such a beautiful content which includes editing video creation and detail analysis .. kudos to PD team who have been working together to bring us the best #respect
Thank you Shailesh! That compliment really means a lot to the team.
shailesh rao, please be informed no one is hating #PD but it is sad that #Sarg left PD
Sagar is Powerdrift's soul ❤❤..
As much as I miss sarge, powerdrift is still the best creator of automotive content in TH-cam. So more power to drift. (See what I did there? 😝)
#PDarmy
Nice wordplay! And thank you for that compliment!
Sagar is exceptional but Varun you are also good, love how you narrate. 👍
Power drift get back sagar soon to get power in reviews
Still waiting for Apache RR310s road test review........
Missing that " having said that "
Your presentation skills are wayyyy too amazing bro!
Great look..... Masculine... Wished it would have been launched four months back when I bought fz25.... However fz25 makes my day and wish everyone to ride safe...
FZ25 is one fab bike.
Great work guys,but still missing that soul,and what's wrong with the music,I have never heard any bad one before this,get it up team.
where's Sagar
we need Sagar
guys comment down #sagar to get him😭😭😭😭
Was expecting better from powerdrift😞😞
Dissapointed😞
Sagar should do it once again
No replacement for sargee but u can try to replace him with kartikeya singhee... He is a great biker, awesome reviewer with goood experience... please bring him to powerdrift
Who else was expecting sagar to do the review of v3 😓😓
Varun ❤❤
ABS might be deal breaker... If it standardised ABS at same price then it would be more handsome package..
killer looks by YAMAHA.. Looks can be factor of this beast..
Team power drift is different from other ytube channel.. i love there style to explain how the machine works.. I love you team power drift.. keep going...😁🖒
Thank you Nik, and much love to you.
Powerdrift will not be the same without sagar.. :(
Sagar Sir's absence is clearly seen and felt, Sarge's voice was so exciting that even if a bike didn't worth that much, looks great.
Missing you Sarge.
I agree but Varun Painter isn't bad at all.
Agree
well done Varun bro (y). You nailed this one. Congrats. :)
There is still room for improvement. But this is the new milestone for you. :)
Hey Ajay, that feedback would surely help Varun and the team! Thank you :)
achhe din are in waiting period 😂😂
Miss you sagar and waiting for you.......
Sagar went to California superbike racing school. More money. Wider opportunities
Yamaha again missed on ABS whereas competitors have started offering ABS as basic safety feature. This one gonna have hard time
Varuns body language reminds me of Sarge..Good going varun you will be best replacement of Sarge
Tejas Desai haha that what I too believe
As always.
Powerdrift killed it ❤
Awesome review..
Seen many reviews on v3
But eagerly waited for ur review.
Come soon with full review..
#PDArmy
This review feels like a plastic add... Something missing... Maza nehi aya...😊
PD always comes with quality content and it does again as usual
I watch Powerdrift bcoz of sagar brother.
Bring him back
Nd keep him in every video
All About Bikes i m supporting you bro
MISSED #SAGAR BUT VARUN BHAI IS ALSO DUDE
This is not a review without sagar........ Miss you a lot.....
Sagar is the trump card for powerdrift. Now they want to play without him, it's quite difficult.
We need Sagar back
Not up to my expectations... (But gave it a like cuz, it's power drift) Missing Sarge..!
Without Sagar sir this video feels incomplete. Miss him a lot.😔
waitng for this PD version
This review is quite late in comparison to others and the most un detailed one. What happened PD?
Them feeling the SagarBlues..
Most awaited bike.... Thanks for First ride video
.
Become very slow you guys have...in reviewing automobiles...stil my fav channel...😊
The pace shall up soon. ;)
All the other channels reviewed it. But i was eagerly waiting for your review. You guys are simply the best.
Anyone else missing Sarge ? ☹️
Kritigya Sood where did he went
Nitin Rathee He left Powerdrift
King Of 150cc R15 is back!!!!!!!😍😍😍
Varun Painter has his own league in reviewing bikes. awesome buddy. keep rocking.
Missing u sergeant sheldekar ..
6 years ago i had seen his review on R15 v2.0 at PTR and then i booked my first bike R15 v 2.0.
he could have made you book the r15 v3 as well right? haha
Nobody can review a bike better than sarge. He is the best in it. Wish sarge could come back to powerdrift again.
If any one didn't know, Sarge has left PD
Varun u r best in your on way of reviewing...But we r missing Sagar....in this Video
Ache din waiting
......
Firstly you posted it so late ..again there isn't any significant information in the video, just for sake of posting.whats up PD ???
Lalith Kiran First impressions will always be brief my man. But is there anything in specific that you are looking at? Might be able to help you out here.
We love you Varun Painter ❤️
I have booked the bike!
Eagerly waiting for it! :D
Hit like if you think
Apache rtr 200 race edition >>> Yamaha r15 v3
just 1 minute into the video and this comment.. appreciate you saying you are not replacing Sagar.. respect!
Nobody can replace anybody. All our team members are unique and have their own style and forte. It only just that they have a chance to prove their mettle, their own way.
PowerDrift with that said, my favourite still remains Tenhut for cars and Sergeant for bikes. :)
Missing Sagar sir.. 😔😔
This is great. Good job Varun!
Areee bhai bhai bhai
Varun Painter I gotcha
Still waiting for in depth review of Apache RR310
waiting this review for almost 10 days... finally👍👍👍👍👍varun painter u r really better👌👌👌
Abs missing. How are we supposed to make the Indian roads safer when manufacturers play ping pong between profits and safety? Anybody listening
Prateek Dewan new Honda cbr150r has ABS
Honda Hornet hav ABS,
Aprilla SR 150 dual-channel ABS.
Finally! The long awaited review! Tqsm guys... This class n quality is what drives ppl like me to wait for ur review. Ammmmmazing job guys. Rock onnnnn PD! 🤘
What are you people doing? Compiling the reviews of other reviewers???
Common how long it will take you to do a review of this bike!
We haven't yet received the media bike from Yamaha, Vasant. We shall have the review as soon as we get the bike.
Expected a much more dynamic first ride review of such a fantastic and epic motorcycle.
There shall be a comprehensive review, Jitender. :)
That's right ! its quite some time now.
There is nothing bad from varuns side he has definitely given his best but the legend is still miss the way sagar attaches to the motorcycle is way more different then you that continues smile on his face which definitely shows that this is going to be a fun motorcycle on track as well as on road #missingsagarsheldrake 😢
Mitanshu Palav we all miss him too, but those comparisons are mighty disappointing. Everyone has a learning curve, Sarge had one too and his love for curves saw him covering his curve sooner than anyone else ;)
Thank you PD Army ❤
we want sagar sir
People are badly waiting for perfect road review of this bike..!!
I really hope PowerDrift would make it soon..!!
We do plan for a review, just waiting for the media bike from Yamaha.
Varun is doing an amazing job
Well the good thing about Varun is that he is totally honest about the state of Sagar's replacement, he knows PD's got a pair of Sagar Sheldekar-sized Forma racing boots to fill.
But since Akash is a former National champ and is totally capable of slaying any piece of road on a motorcycle then he's pretty good in my book; just watch his moto vlogs.
no sergeant no chill in the vlogs ! the inner feeling is missing , the voiceover doesn't makes feels like seldy !
sauravjyoti nath do u know why he left? He was the guy!!
kshitij Neozen He joined the California Superbike School as an instructor
No disrespect to this review or to Varun.. but we really are missing Sagar here😒😒😒
varun you just forget to say ur name in this video
Yes this is the R1 of our lower middle class.....
Please team #Powerdrift make road review of v3 like Daytona 675R review.. full cinematic shots and awesome music...!! like if you agree!!
It’s too late and that to short video what happened guys and video lacks the excitement that we r used to....we miss u sagar bhai and no one can replace him.
Lack of ABS is disappointing...
TVS is giving ABS and Yamaha doesn't....
Guys should not buy this bike until they upgraded it with dual channel ABS.
vpriyadharshini M...at least singal chanel ABS Yamaha should be provided..
why you wanna compromise your life with a single channel abs,
when you want to invest 1.5 lacs onr!
Mr. Justice..I love all indian bike..Bajaj,Hero & Tvs..and they're providing the best bikes..at that cost..with good safety features..never go for it..I m suggested for ABS..
not expecting from channel like powerdrift
