Ditto on the S1k XR for sure. Love BMW’s fit & finish. The 9W Market is the place. Be there or be no where. Fantastic vibe going on. Ya’ll looked great out there. Well done.
Sweet now get too see you on the S1000RR, Real Bike time…. LOL glad to have found the new channel after the introduction video from the regular Cycle Fanatix, BMW is perfection. (I have the R1250R along with my Harley RG ST Fast Johnnie and the Indian Challenger Darkhorse.)
Just picked up my ‘24 M package last week! First thing I did was the OEM BMW radiator and oil cooler guards. Tabs for the guards are already located on the inner front fairing, snaps right into place. Love the content man!
Finally! A rider on TH-cam who isn’t talking about the riding season is over. If it’s too cold for them to ride around with their T-shirts half way up their backs they don’t want to ride.
Ran three rear Michelin Power 5. Great tires, nice grip, great feedback. Road 36 psi front, 40 psi rear. Power Wheelie grabs nicely, no slipping. If you slid out too much rear tire pressure or not warmed up.
John awesome bikes. There are some great looking sport bikes out now. Hard to decide what to get. I can see speeding tickets in the future. lol rubber side dw. Terry🇨🇦
Poor Sandy, he was probably back there peddling as fast as he could to keep up .... 😂🤣 Its hard to keep 200rwhp stuck to the ground in anything but prefect, hot conditions. A guy I work with, who's been a long time, very fast sport-touring rider bought a 2024 S1000 XR earlier this year.... He says its absolute missile, being one of the hardest accelerating bikes he's ever ridden. But he also says, the XR also has a more mellow side, that's comfortable and easy to tour on.
John u need to get some protection parts also like Frame sliders Fork protectors engine guards radiator grill and oilcooler guard u can checkout R&G they r best in business and a little tinted windscreen the bike looks awesome just a small suggestion from your brother cheers everyday watching your vids on repeat Peace mate 👍
The gas cap is a super easy swap and well worth it! I have the alpha racing one, it’s made by twm. I ordered it from motomillion with the titanium bolts. I love it! I have the same power cup tires you have so, I’m curious to see what tire you go with and how you like them.
If you are doing a header as well you better get ready for some earplugs!! LOL. I ran a shorty on the stock header and cats for 1500 miles and didnt notice any real change in power, but it wasnt tuned either so I still had the anemic power right where power would be affected. It still sounded like a sewing machine unfortunately...if you delete the servo it will help a TON as well...
I've been riding for 40+ years, and to me, if I have to wear anything heated, it's too cold to be out riding, that's what my Lancia or Audi are for. But kudos to you and those that ride in the cold. I got spoiled living and riding in southern California for many years. If the temp is in the low 50's or below, or in the high 80's or above, I don't ride (in eastern VA). It's just not enjoyable for me...
Honestly, I love them and the price is great lol they look awesome but sometimes if you need to see right behind you, you do have to move your elbows a little bit out-of-the-way

You should take the real bike to harley davidson and show them what a real bike is. All about. Nothing beats the sport bike world mostly the woman in it
@@DongYonder You do more video's on your MR...love your channel!! I have the MRR but also a DUcati SF SP so its about the same as you...days I dont want to be aggressively positioned but still want that power on hand I just take the Duc out.
@@redrider0151 yup you get it.Appreciate it! The naked bikes are sooo much more practical for everyday use. The RR definitely has its place and the wind protection is so much better on the highway. I'm getting the RR unlocked end of the week and starting the mods. It'll be tuned soon as well so the videos on it should pick up.
@@DongYonder Cant wait to see it Brother!! I did the slip on with the cat for about 1700 miles, did the header just 3 days ago, I have the tune ready to go on but am gonna wait just a bit just in case (I changed the oil again before doing the header to inspect for any metal as a precaution). Header went on at 1900 miles and that really changed things as well since it removed the flapper valve...but I figure I will do the tune by 2000 miles... :D

I’ve been running the Michelin Pilot Power 2CT’s for a long time. I really like them. They are dual compound.

Cool thanks for the information. I have to get the guards as well.

Haha 🤣 exactly
@@cyclefanatixsport- Extend every riding season, Florida for the Winter…
Hi John.. if it was me and I was driving that bike 140 miles an hour I’d be getting those new tires this afternoon! Please be safe!
Yes John, plz get a MXR1000, that would be sick, thats gonna be my next bike........

Nothing like those 6 axis IMU's keeping us all safe from ourselves!!

John awesome bikes. There are some great looking sport bikes out now. Hard to decide what to get. I can see speeding tickets in the future. lol rubber side dw. Terry🇨🇦
Noooo tickets
Get a set of tire warmers when she sits in the garage .
Been watching your main channel for about a year now and was wandering what happened to the KTM super Duke 890 then saw the s1000 in it's place lol
Sold the KTM

Yeah, it’s definitely an awesome bike
Been looking at an S1000XR but want the MSport Color Scheme… only have seen the Grey/Ultra Yellow ones.
XR is awesome

Peace mate 👍
Thanks, I’m definitely getting the radiator guards, still undecided on the tinted windshield
@@cyclefanatixsportrad guard from Australia is the best. For rad guards and oil guards. Bin dealing with them for years

Thanks for the info. It’s either going to be the Michelin power 6 or GP2
Finally i bought my shorty I hope i won't lose any power i install this coming weekend
Awesome. Let me know what you think

It seems like a small BMW club. Any open spots to join? LOL Congrats to Glen! Gorgeous RS.
Email me if your in the area

Fair enough!
When I lived in nyc you couldn’t pump your own gas in NJ when did that change?
They didn’t change it, but I don’t allow anyone to pump gas on my motorcycle
How you liking the mirrors? Purchased mine after your video link and just installed them - trying them this weekend

I wonder if Sandy was able to keep pace with you? 😂
Hell no. He was on the deuce. 🤣
bro BBW

I don’t see the point in the single rr. Like I said I have ur bike but worked to the balls and all carboned out.
Ride one if you get the chance and you'll get it. I own both the MRR and MR and they are each their own animal
