    Cringeworthy 😬. Look, what you are attempting to do is very difficult, congrats for giving it a go. This is only the second video of yours I have watched, it’s hard work 😓.

      @ can’t remember, but the fairer among you was doing the review.
      It goes without saying that there have been many conversations regarding structure and style. What a successful formula looks like.
      Focusing on this episode only, I understand many of the complaints, less than enthusiastic comments. It was a very strange episode full of the most eclectic disjointed bikes imaginable. Not a good fit for any demographic. A dog’s breakfast to be honest.
      I read the reasoning, we reviewed what we could get our legs over. Regardless, I didn’t work, like really really didn’t work. Personally I have watched several hundred reviews this year and never one of your beloved Ducati devil 😈. And to hold it seemingly bosom to bosom, with a single cylinder 450 is, well it is creepy.
      A few ideas 💡: you can’t access as many manufacturers as you want? Stuffem, review the hell out of those who will work with you. And buy some long term bikes, 6 months reviews are often good.
      Work closely with a dealership if possible. Promote each other. Feature their bikes, new and second hand.

    I agree with Tegan, Yamaha XSR900GP for me would take out my Top Bike award. My Hooligan and cashed up boomer bike would be BMW's M1000R (this bike had me misbehaving way too much). Top touring bike would have been a tie between the Indian Road Master or the BMW R1250 Rt (but this is not eligiable as I did not ride it). Sadly no top budget bike as I did not ride any affordable bikes this year.

    Fun list! Of the ones you listed I'd get the XSR 900GP first. Though since we don't get that in North America I'd get the MT-09 since it's the next best middleweight triple after the Street Triple. Then, it would probably be the Diavel. Ugly as it is I wouldn't care while riding it. I've yet to ride a Royal Enfield that I honestly found fun but I'd consider a Himalayan for some off-road riding simply because I wouldn't mind beating it up a bit 😅

      The Svartpilen is a quick & agile ride once you've scrubbed in the tyres. It's perfect for my daily rat run through inner south western Sydney. But you need to have evacuated your bowels before you ride. If there's anything left in there the vibrations from the bike will definitely let you know about it. And I need to have a chat to my local concreter about pouring me a more comfortable seat. The current one is best experienced in sets of 30 minutes or less.

    Your show clearly is financed by BMW, Ducati and Royal infield. All three brands are overpriced and unreliable. I have three words for you, Japanese Motorcycles ONLY.

      lol, clearly. You are forgetting Yamaha who pay us the same amount as BMW, Ducati and Royal Enfield🤣. In all seriousness we are only including bikes we have ridden this year and those are the manufacturers that are lending us bikes. I can say with absolute certainty that the channel is 100% financed by me.

      @ In that case your assessment of putting all these none Japanese bikes on the top of your lists are extremely biased , misleading and cartoonishly unrealistic.

      Surprising comment. The panel loved some of the Japanese bikes. The quality and reliability of Royal Enfield has improved out of sight in recent years and is now the equal of anything from Japan. Most likely it’s due to the huge money injection from Polaris (I think) to update production to world’s best practice. Twenty years ago Royal Enfields had poor metallurgy, poor quality and were unreliable. Not anymore. In my opinion REs are still too heavy for what they are. BMWs have a lot of recalls for their price. Ducatis have always shown Italian flair and style not necessarily to everyone’s taste but pretty stunning nevertheless. PS I like Harleys and Indians, too.

      Can’t beat Japanese bikes for reliability, easy servicing at home and bang for your buck! My Kawasaki Z900 is the best value for money in the sportsbike market. I’d love an Aprilia Tuono if I had deeper pockets, and of course a Ducati Panigale VS4 for short mountain runs … 🎉

      @@siamakgarmroudi4779 I agree, why wasn’t the Honda TransAlp 750 on the best budget bike?

    Didn't like or appreciate any of the bikes mentioned.

    I have never been so bored in my life, I can’t believe the utter nonsense that you’ve picked. An Indian bike for a start, what a hunk of junk. Get some adrenaline in your lives. God knows you need it.

      perhaps you’ve never had a royal enfield. Best bikes for the money. They aren’t junk by any means but aren’t to be compared with japanese or european bikes at 2 to 5 times the price.

      I personally appreciate they are great value but ive always owned honda motorcycles. I personally enjoy performancec and build quality so a Royal Enfield isnt high on my list. ​@moozepatt7525

    Naked bikes without windshields are terrible to ride above 100kmh … 😵

    • @BikerTorque
      @BikerTorque  18 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      Can’t agree with you there. I had an R1200R that was amazing around 100kms per hour, no shield and very little buffeting

    Royal Enfields under powered and cheap finish. BMWs too complicated ..unreliable. IMO

      Sorry can’t agree with you in either case. The power out of the 450 Sherpa is fine, and as for the Beemer being complicated, no it’s not.
