Yes exactly the same bike. White DCT model. Frustrating getting the rear seat off just a few days old just out the showroom. Hopefully not snapping the expensive key especially not carrying a spare while on your. Saving this video see I can master to perfection.

Do you think this bike can be proper for a 6ft height? Not too small?. I watched you are more than 6ft and feeling well but see this beauty worth for that height? Nice video 👌

Nice one mate. I’m on the action3 with wireless mic not sure I can charge the camera as the mic input is where you would charge it. I will have to do some research. DJI cameras are very good as you well know

I have the DJI osmo 4. What a camera brilliant

Theloftybiker- Thank you-fantastic vlog, catch you later.

Hi, does it show you how much gas you have in your tank?

Great review! Thank you! How much do you weight? I need to compare it with mine. I am 6.3 feet and 130 Kg. Do you thing I could fit on it? BR

Hi Lofty. Do you think the lowered chassis effects the ergo's at all ?. Great review. All the best.

I just brought a brand new 2024 SHi 125cc I was involved in a motorcycle accident 15/07/2024 on my 2023 Forza 125 sadly it was a complete right off all the front was totally broken. So I am still waiting to take my first ride it’s done 1 mile so far. It got delivered to my home last week. Great video thank you 🙏

Better without background music

Enjoyed the review. Just bought one and added extras that I wanted. I prefer Honda doing this so I don’t pay for stuff I don’t want.

Great review cracking bike all the best

The CMX 1100 has a smaller fuel tank(2.5 gallons) than it's 500ccrebel stablemate (3 gallons). Not impressed with it at all.🥺🙄

Thanks 👍

Untill bike and car dealerships learn that service costs and customer services are a priority,they will continue to lose business. Profits over customer service is not the way to do business.

Nice review Mr Lofty, it is a brilliant bike and overall really happy with mine. Just got back from touring Scotland on it with an average 51mpg. 🏍️🏍️🏍️🏍️

Nothing like listening to a man in love!!! Where was the creek Lofty, be careful of French pirates hey!!

Worst bike customer experience ever at a Triumph Dealership. I'll never go back! Treating customers as mugs is not the way!

You're tall!!

Hey TLB, I think the Eliminator is a handsome bike! That "baloney tube" of an exhaust pipe must be replaced immediately! Here, in America, we can get the ike in white, bright orange/gloss black & a mat grey. It's a great choice for a first bike!🏍️👍😎. Doug

I was disappointed by my Transalp test ride a week or so back, rock hard seat, and the missus hated the pillion position. Great engine and sound tho. I'm very interested in having a ride on this Vstrom.

ia a pig????????

Great review, I would like to get the CB650R. Thanks

KTM: Don't believe what you read, any business that says "slow down in sales", then "lay-offs", then "moving production to arse-end-nowhere-for-cheap-labour" is lying. They were already planning to move it, the rest was just the excuse. This is the quiet deal they've been arranging CFMoto. My 1290sas has 21K on the clock, starts first time every time, never given me a days concern... of course if I owned the Chinese made 690\790 engine I might be twitching. Thank you BMW for the GSA, my KTM is no longer the ugliest bike in ADV.

£1.38 in Helston!

Re. GSA: a couple of weeks ago while being in Italy I had the pleasure of visiting MV Agusta and saw the Superveloce 1000 for the first time in the flesh. A beauty, a work of art, pure emotions. Coming back to the GSA: on first sight it's ugly, no smooth lines, all edges and angles. But, the GSA is intended to be utilitarian like a Landrover, an Unimog or a tank. As someone who sees a certain, special beauty in e.g. warships, tanks and military aircraft I have to admit that the GSA does have a certain appeal. I will love the Superveloce and appreciate her design, her beautyness and her presence; the GSA I will use.

Appreciate both the knowledge and insight sir. Always a pleasure to hear your thoughts.

I reckon they know what they are doing. I.m already getting used to it. Its so different and that will go down well with people who want to be noticed on top of range bike. Its like the ford sierra. Was so different and strange but very quickly they were accepted. I won.t be buying one but i predict they will quickly sell fast. 🤔

Greetings from Pennsylvania. I recently purchased a 2024 BMW R1250 RS in triple white. When I first got it I tried all the riding modes but now I just keep the bike in the road mode. Cracking good video mate, I enjoyed listening to your review.

It's different aye it!

Thanks for the review mate, I'm still a ways off from saving for one but I know I will enjoy it when I get it, and your video only helps to reaffirm it

Love bike, hate matt black paintwork don't think I could live with it

Difficult call for me. I was impressed with how much fun you had. Looks wise Royal Enfield retro look works for me, but they are proper heavy, same as my 1250 bandit give or take without the go. Don't like the USB port. Jury is out for now.

I didn't catch which bike he's reviewing, did he mention it?

How is it on the bumpy roads sir? Can I ride it to the rural mountains?

Is it called the Eliminator because they Eliminated the front mudguard?

Great review. I bought one a month ago. Usb was moved to the exact place you said within an hour of owning. Lmao

I've had mine for around 3 months now and still find it so much fun. Tried various other 500's from Honda and Kawasaki but this one fitted me down to the ground (I'm only 5'6" so literally 😂). Good review again Lofty.

A good review on the thou this. Have a 2016 Versys GT which I've been riding on since April and love it so far, must say I am a bit jelly of bigger bikes having more tech than the smaller ones xD though a heavy beast that compared to the 650 and though it isn't far off in difference, its about the same in weight as the R1200 RT just a few KG lighter I think.

Don't take yours to Bowker Motorrad in Preston, they couldn't fix anything and then blame you !

I am 6’6 and considering getting one of these for everyday travel in Thailand and maybe a little touring before getting a bigger bike. Would it be big enough for me or are my legs going to be folded under my chin?

Why do i hear Drippy from Ni no Kuni game lol

Kámo grau je nejlepší

I do like lofty's reviews they are very informative I would like his opinion on what this and most of the the other bikes he reviews are like on longer say around 30 mile runs on motorways and what they woul dbe like to ride if you were to venture over a 70 a bit has the bike got anything left if you are stretching 70. Don't forget you are doing about 70 when your speedo says 75. I'd love to know what else he has in that back pack he always seems to wear, apart from the tripod.

Are adventure bikes super popular in Europe? So many of the adventure bike reviews come out of Europe.

Do you really have to stop to change modes? Seems a pain to have to stop to change when you just want to get on with riding. Also not sure you said what the economy was like when you were riding. It sounds great when you have a full battery, but I wonder what it's like when it's flat and the engine has to charge it back up again at the same time of powering the bike.

I had a good look at his at the Kawasaki dealer when I was upselling myself from a Z900 then an H2, then a widely electric 125 equivelant caught my eye, very tidy little bike and the fella told me about the hybrid but didn’t have one to show. Glad I watched this vid. I was thinking, do I or don’t go and put my name down for a test ride when the demo arrives, seeing we are being press ganged into EV’s left right and centre. I opted not to as got a few years left of petrol left, I’d rather contribute to the minuscule amount of less than 0.8% of the worlds pollution (naughty me). Nice review, the reverse mode is great, a life saver for me with my little weak legs. I’ll wait a while, got enough bikes for now as I always say, I’m sure they’ll bring out more advance ones in a few years with all the bells and whistles like the E-Clutch Honda brought out, that was a cracking pair of bikes I had a go on in the CB and CBR except as you mentioned, stopping you you’d to kick it back to 1st. It seems like the bikes will be easier and easier to ride and basically have a twist and go for a lot of money.

68hp... _and how much does it weigh?_ *227kg?!* The 1985 GSXR750 was 179kg, and put out 76hp. The 2011 GSXR750 was 190kg, and put out 150hp. We're going backwards.

I would prefer this over the DE model, but the matte paint is a no for me. Here in the U.S. the DE is $1000 more, but my local dealer has one marked down and I can get it for $1000 less than this model. I can get aftermarket cruise for $300.

I think this tech with the 650cc engine in a Versys and a Ninja sports-tourer would make a very compelling package. This tech only makes sense in zero emissions zones and in touring applications for those that want a bit more power than an NC750 but more efficient than a Tracer. I feel like the market exists for this tech, but it needs to be tried in more applications before its market niche becomes solidified.
