I completely forgot to mention that now you have to spend a FORTUNE to get an exhaust for the 2024 model. Slip-ons are a thing of the past! ---- but anyway... older gen or new one? Leave a comment below!
went from 2018 RS to a 24RS, paid $12k for the new bike, the new colors are pretty sick. Got cosmic yellow, it really stands out. More realistically only a $2k-$3k price difference, at least around here. The engine, gearing, quick shifter, are all slightly better. I love the new bike and glad I moved into the 24. The tank and other parts are now plastic, which is a bit of bummer.
I found this video right on time. Was thinking about the 2023 version, but if 2020 is the same then why not. Thanks man, we have the same common sense.
@@PetroHead I'd buy but I'm based in Vietnam and it's all complicated here. Taxes tripled and so on. What is the mod you're talking about? Could you please share more? I'm planning to get the 2020 - 2023 version for budget reasons and all that you mentioned.
I only bought the RS Moto2 Edition was because of its limited edition and because I also have the Daytona Moto2. I don't really have a way to bring both out to San Diego for you to try. I'm 65. October/November it's great in Tucson. If my buddy Mike Hall in Long Beach comes maybe you can hitch a ride. We can take all the bikes out. Bring the Ape! He's got a good size trailer. Something to think about. You're 2020 RS is definitely worth hanging on to. Good video bud! 😊
RE: " I only bought the RS Moto2 Edition was because of its limited edition and because I also have the Daytona Moto2. " Same , here. Got yellow. Looking into an ECU flash and full exhaust. As it is, the 2024 is slower than my 2018 was.
Same sentiments here. I got a 2020 black version of yours instead, fully suped up with all the protection and a Zard Slip on, and on bnew Rosso 4s to boot. As I saw it, it was incremental gains on an already great bike. True on the Stylemas vs M50's. You wouldn't even get to the limit of the M50 to warrant an upgrade. The only thing to ponder for me was the IMU, and even that you could compensate for with your own IMU (better throttling and butt feel). I'll probably ponder in the future, maybe around 2 gens down the road.
Every time I ride the bike, I’m smh thinking why I am even thinking of selling it. The only bike that can replace it (in 2023) is the new one but I can’t justify the 6K upcharge.
9k-10k for a used 600 class To be honest I thought this was a bit high for the displacement. So I bought a used gen2 bmw s1000r. Which has QS up and down, blipper and cc and higher displacement. Also has brembos and active suspension. Soo seemed more value for me personally.
I don't have a good historical comparison, but I can comment on my Street Triple RS Moto 2. I have found this to be an excellent bike. The colors, the torque and HP, the quick shifter/blipper, the braking capabilities and tech package is great. I do love this bike...and (like you) I have many in my stable. Is it worth the money? Maybe. But if you do have the cash then I say...do it! But if you are low on cash...maybe go with a lower level/cost bike.
Old school rider here, against all the intrusive electronic aids. And not a lover of the new graphics too. So for now I'm thinking about getting a 2016/17 Speed Triple R (latest sold here in Brazil, unfortunately), or a 765RS, or a MT-09, wich blew my mind on a recent ride. Never rode the Speed R. Please, if you guys have rode the Speed R, let me know your thoughts against the RS and the MT-09. Best regards.
Thinking of buying either a '22 STriple RS or a '22 XSR900. I plan to use it for weekly rides and maybe try a trackday or two, what bike would you recommend? They have almost the same price used from where I'm from.
I have a 2022 Street triple RS which has a Yoshimura slip on, and a tune a couple other accessories. But!! I am thinking trading it in for a 2022 or 2023 Ducati street fighter v2. Thoughts?
I prefer the longer gears and the triple engine as well as the sound over the V2 power plant. I dunno.. test ride one first. I’ve had two 959’s.. it’s a good starter Ducati bike.. get it out of your system I guess lol
edit: in response to your IMU comment which you removed IMU's weren't developed for safety, they were developed for track performance. The only thing it will do is prevent front wheel lift by cutting power but I've never been able to even purposely get my wheel up and I ride pretty hard. In 2024, IMU's have become cheap and standard equipment like power windows for cars of yesteryear. Feeling safe is a placebo effect. For everything else, you have to be on the ragged edge of performance to see benefits. As I mentioned, electronics are more a hindrance than practicality for most riders.
@@PetroHead I have felt it numerous times do its job. I would say that even if it wasn't developed for safety, it aids you in not completely loosing it
@@PetroHead I'm still on the R6 so I won't take any of it personal! Joking aside, it's always good to hear an honest opinion whether you agree with it or not. I will admit, it's hard to hear you talking about how much power your RSV4 puts out when it's double the amount of an R6. You've created something special there!
@@brianweir1366 Power isn't everything my boy... If it was, I wouldn't even buy another 600 or even own my Striple anymore. I gave an explanation in my "RS for sale" video about why I am entertaining another 600.. Want my advice? Never get rid of your R6... you will miss it badly and will want another (like me)
@@PetroHead I fully agree with you, I don't think I'll ever sell the R6. What it may lack in power compared to a litre bike, it makes up in engagement and fun factor! I'm considering a second bike as I'm not sure how long manufacturers will keep producing 1000+cc sport bikes given the rules and regulations keep getting more restrictive.
@@brianweir1366 as long as motogp, motoamerica and BSB exist, they will always make them. However, regulations will make them a PIA to own and work on.. thus, the fun factor will be gone. At that point, bikes like R6 will skyrocket.. maybe a decade or even two.. who knows man.. just enjoy what you got. PS: one thing is for sure.. we have reached the peak. All downhill from here. It’s the ‘boiling the frog slowly effect’ you’re currently witnessing.
The 2024 has a new, smoother quickshifter/blipper the geometery is different, a bit more power (the gearing makes more odds) and its got an IMU so you get cornering ABS and far better traction control. TBH 95% of the time you wont be able to tell. You can tell the change in gear ratios, it feels a fair bit snappier. Oh and btw the TFT is still utter shite. Why the fuck they don't give a software graphic analogue tacho as an option display a la the 2018 version is madness. It's so frustrating. I'm honestly tempted by a 2021 765 R with the old school LCD and dial tacho. Spend the extra on going on trips up the alps....
The dash was designed by artists not riders. You’re right it’s nonsense and have said this in a lot of my videos about this bike. Watch my 2024 Striple review.. same exact bike no different. Save big money buy my 2020 RS.
2020+ doesn't have the intake bark of '18-19. I bought a '24 RS Moto2 in dayglo. (Had '18 RS.) 24 lot better than 18, except stupid screen graphics. Thinking to sell Speed Twin 1200, get new zx6r ...
Unless you mean a Street vs. a Speed.. Its not $6k cheaper... Bikes have a small margin of price difference from new. I believe a new is $13500, and a 2018 is 8-9k. So where is the $6k difference?
Gosg dang honestly I've been debating on trading my RSV4 for the new Speed triple as much as I love my RSV4 and sport I don't feel it's reliable. The bike turned 1500 miles boom oil leak, so with that being said I don't trust it.
Some oil leaks are easy to fix. Might need to tighten the filter, change the gasket or the washer. Change oil, replace filter and washer, check the bolts for tightness around the crank/engine. Try to find the source, of course.
I got a store new 2022 for over 20% discount and 5 year warranty. I'm Very happy about that, as it lessens any potential loss of value if I want to sell it within the next 3 years.

New one. Better colours, IMU, brakes, horsepower/torque and engine refinements, suspension changes, ability to add cruise control.
Ability to add CC.. that’s prob my fave feature because I wish I had that on my 20.
I have the same bike and I absolutely love it! Not a single complaint about it, best part is I got it for 7900 out the door with 9k miles.
Got the 2021, perfect bike, my only gripe is the 30 minute wait from turning the key to it letting you start the bike😂

The newer ones still have silver ice, right? Only looks matte gray on the website photos but it's still the same metallic silver ice.

I've seen the new silver and it's the same gloss metallic as my '22RS. Not matte finish
