Great review. Almost 30y riding experience, have had around 27 motorcycles so far, have had many bike with lots of cc's and HP. From supersports to sport touring, motorscooters and cruisers...... Well, I just bought a Honda CL500. Why? Butter smooth, reliable, simple and more than enough power to use it in and around the city, fuel consumption and i personally like the looks. I did testrides on many bikes the last few weeks. Royal enfield Himalayan and Guerrilla 450, triumph 400x and Kawasaki Z500 and the CL500. The other weren't bad at all. Just I have also many single cilinder bikes and this engine has become very good over the years that I bought it. Great review

Beginning of the summer I bought a Suzuki GSR750 along side with the Iphone 15PRO MAX. I’ve put it in a quad lock and though I am set. In a few months my phone camera (only wide angle lens tho) became very blurry and out of focus. Had no clue what it was. Very happy I came across this video… Now Im going back to apple for a camera replacement and ordered vibration dampener for the quad lock. Hopefully this will resolve the issue. But I will definitely be more cautious on bikes vibration and how it impacts phones... Thank you

Thanks for sharing your experience! I have the same phone as you and if I’m honest… I’m not brave enough to attach it to my bike in any way. All I use is google maps when riding. An old iPhone 7 serves me for that. But it is a faff having 2 phones

I hadn't known much of this bike until I saw someone taking her out onto some back roads/trails. Nothing too tough but even w/ some dirt tires this bike was not cutting thru the sand/soft materials- it looked heavy & unstable under those circumstances. I like the look for the fuel tank, that was what all the bikes looked like when I was a kid. That was long ago but I digress, I think the lack of storage could've been overcome but that exhaust makes only one side even usable so I'm gonna thank you for showing why I'd better not go this route. Thanks & be safe ; GB ALL

Good video but I would say that "INSANE PRECISION" is click bait. For example, the chain slack adjustment on my bike is 1.00" to 1.375" - so 0.375" of room from tight to loose. These parts are pretty coarse by their nature; not precision pieces. If I have to adjust my chain while on the road and don't have something handy to jam between the chain and sprocket, I make sure that I place the handle of the wrench at about the 6:00 o'clock position when tightening the axle nut. That way, I am pushing forward on the wrench. That helps to push everything together instead of pulling them apart; no over tight chain that way.

Hola, estoy viendo todos tus videos y los de esta moto, creo que no hice mala elección, hoy compre una Fz6 fazer azul 2008 con 18,000 km, en muy buen estado, tiene pocos detalles por el año, retenes de las barras por ejemplo. Hice unos kilómetros con ella y me gusto mucho su sonido, su manejo, la potencia, tiene un retrovisor flojo, no se como apretarlo, sigo buscando videos de eso. Gracias por compartir, saludos de Michoacán, México.

Just bought one last week. The e-clutch is astoundingly good for a first effort from Honda. The only gripe I can come up with is a relative lack of outright power compared to the 600cc supersports. My 04" 636 would stomp it. I would think even detuned they could have gotten at least 95 hp at the rear wheel (most dyno outputs I've seen get 80-85 at the back wheel vs 105-120 for any current supersport. Honda claims 94 at the crank which seems about right). That said, there's still enough power to get the job done unless you're like a very fast track rider.

@@FabMotorbikes Yeah sometime down the road I'll be getting a full Akro system and flash the ecu perhaps, but I believe the ecu this year is different in that in communicates with the mcu of the e-clutch, and I don't want to risk messing that up. This will likely take tuners a while to figure out this particular ecu.

Now trying to check one with a non runner no starter motor 6V system eh? Something like a 1959 AJS 350 Model 16... and there you'll know my problem. Kick it over ammeter shows no change. mind you shows no change when turning on lights or horn either. At least I got those working. No spark of plug of course, no spark at breaker (points) though. Worse than that, it being a '59, the book doesn't not have the standard loom as it was AMC took over so hybrid AMC/AJS wiring.... oh at least it is sort of standard as it has a LIVE FRAME! Just to make it more interesting (+ terminal goes to frame)
