I have a 1975 Yamaha dt250b and it runs and looks great.

I have a 30 year old DR 800 ......still going strong.....easy to work on .....pulls like a train. And a 20 year old Yamaha TTR 600 .......they all go well if looked after.

Use to have ts100 and gt380 loved them both 😁

I have a honda cb250 still original condition in candy gold nice to ride alot of chrome as well eye catching.

Love these machines❤

Some nice bikes indeed, it’s a shame so many of these types of videos miss out so many Suzukis like the 250 Hustler, 350 Rebel and T500 Cobra, the T500 which i bought brand new in 1974 and still have today! The likes of the Kawasaki triples and Honda big fours have been covered over and over again so many times, that said I still love them, especially the 650 Yamahas!! Great video. Thank you 👍👍

BMW's 1250 engine is the most reliable that I've owned. My 2022 BMW R1250GS has 208,200 miles. I have the BMW extended warranty. I do the 6K service myself and have a BMW dealer do the 12K service. So far the valves have always been in spec. A year ago BMW started doing a recall on the drive shafts and are now replacing them every 36K miles (original one had 154K). What surprises.me is I have the original clutch. I am starting to use 1/2-1 quart of oil every 6K miles.

Kawasaki big 4s will be fine thx

I prefer the originals, brit bikes, thank you

I bought a new XR650L, I had for 8 years, basically is an OK machine but it had a few issues. For the first 4 years it was trouble-free, then it started to hesitate to start, I changed the CDI, it was cured for a bit but that problem continued for ever... You need to change the front sprocket frecuently or it will chew up your shaft fast, use the KKBike italian one, that solves the problem forever!!! Suspension linkage seems to get tired very soon as well. The starer needs a change after 5 or 6 years. The rear brake is not powerful enough, put the best pads you can find and change the brake fluid frecuently. The footpegs are crap, change them for IMS ones. My height is 5'9 (1,75 Mts) and I really needed to raise the handle bars 2". Finally, the paint is not good, it starts to peel on the welded areas. At least for me, the XR 650 has been the least reliable Honda I ever had.

Why do People and Robots apparently keep Saying the R6 was Discontinued? Because It definitely wasn't. They're Releasing a new Model in 2025.

Yeah so nothing against the Z1, but the 69 CB-750 is well known to be the 1st "Super Bike". That's like Calling the ZX-14 the 1st Super Bike cause it's a little faster than the Hayabusa.

You missed the Kawasaki KLR 650 and the Honda XR 400, both of which were extremely reliable

Basically all the models of Harleys use the same engines and drivetrains...two choices for each generation...the big twins or the Sportster engines...they are all the same basic bikes just dressed up different. Generally speaking.

i had a gt 750, coolant caused the cylinders to disolve onto the upper crankcase

OK, got to say a few things. My first mc was a 1963 Honda Hawk (250cc) that was exactly the same as the Super Hawk, save for the bump in engine size. The Super version didn't come along until 1964. I also owned a CB 450, but those were NEVER called 'black bombers' - they were called Condors. I drove that bike for about 15 - 20kk miles but scored a piston on a long trip. Honed the cylinders, put in new rings and traded it in for a BSA Lightning - WORST in reliability bike I've ever owned! (Should have bought another Japanese bike!) Also owned a Yamaha SR500 and loved it! Super maneuverable on the street in traffic and great on trails as well.

This is really bullshit. For 14 year I drove Aprilia’s without any problems, however switching to Ducati Panigale V 4 gave me lots of problems. 2 S1000 machines further without problems. So stop this shit

Yous would be lucky if 5% of harley owners fix anything on there bike 😊 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿😁✌️

My CB1300 has done 145,000 miles and still going strong.

American made outside of America

Had my '74 H2 750 triple from 1977 to 2017, best bud up in CO has it now, still running well after all these years. My back wouldn't take the rather violent powerband when it got on the pipes(Spec II chambers)anymore. Great machine, it fouled only 2 sparkplugs in the 40 years that I owned it and 2 kicks cold, 1 kick hot to light it off with the stock magneto CDI in it. Still have my turbo CBX though......!!

so like... all of the models? LOL Just get a mid 90's harley with a carb, it'll never die. Stupid ass AI voiced videos, destroy them all.

All harleys will last forever period..

Xr 1200 is sold (cheap) now purchasing new Indian FTR

I'm 72,and I am finding the weight of my old BMW RT too heavy to handle,this video is obviously not really intended for seniors.... come on dude...cop on

What a waste of 10 minutes.

Harley’s problem ain’t ‘woke agenda’, It’s their product. Yesterdays product at tomorrows prices, there you have it. And selling ‘Harley lifestyle’? Looks more like promoting a latent homo lifestyle to me. Whatever, don’t listen to the fraud who doesn’t understand how tariffs work and couldn’t even ride out of sight on a dark night.

And you know, The times they are a changing. We have to move on. Hey boomers look for other leisure activities. Boomers are dying out.

Why does it have to be one or the other ? Why can't electric bikes and gasoline bikes both made to be available to those who prefer one or the other ? I would never buy an electric bike but why would I down someone else who would ? Genuine made in USA made Harleys fell by the way years ago. It's just that now there's no hiding it.

Check out what I did to my Harley after they went woke. I made a statement I won’t bow down to woke BS Harley Davidson Went Woke! So I Destroyed My Bike!!! kzbin.info/www/bejne/sIDQcn1nbdGjo7c

“Loyal customers” already have a Harley. If they want to stay in business they need to make a good affordable motorcycle.

No, mine is a 1981 KZ 44O LTD. Although a Norton 750 Commando would be cool to have or the Kawasaki three cylinder 750.

Wot no BLACKBIRD ?

Cb500 was my first ride ever. I rode that bike to h3ll and back with zero maintenance. It was unfortunately stolen in 85. I picked up a 73 cb450 and a 70 cb750 in later years. I still own those. Both great bikes. Especially for their time period.

I'm agree with Mr. Trump

I know NOTHING !

I've seen this all before..Harley needs to listen the guys that actually ride the bikes. I remember when Harley Davidson was completely against the outlaw image. They hated the fact people would customize their bikes. Finally Willy G Davidson figured it out. He embraced it.

More bollox !

You go woke you go broke Harley bike cost more but you get less and then you have to put in thousands of dollar to get them right.

Woken and broken 🇺🇸🙏🏿🇨🇦

Harleydavidson has lost my support I have been riding for many decades and a life member of hog but at a recent event ride for dad I was told by the director that I was no longer welcome to ride with with the group this has completely ruined my respect for hog and Harleydavidson I now ride with my girlfriend as loan riders took the grandriver patch off my cut screw you hog total waste I contacted corporate and they said to bad find another chapter!!! Wtf

XT500 FFS

I saw the cover for this video, and i go: Hmmmmm if you got sooooo much stuff to carry . . . . Aint it better to use a jeep chump???? 😄😄😄😄

Extreme high price: young people don't want to own a high-priced, under powered bagger bike. If they are wanting to ride a motorcycle, they will find something they can afford (it won't be a Harley). They also want modern engines and transmissions with high performance, (again, not a Harley). Floorboards, big windshields, loud pipes are all synonymous with Harley baggers. Young people don't like that. Harley clothing does not help the image either. If you are a Harley rider, you might be sporting a skull cap with crossbones on it. You might also be sporting a pair of leather ass-chaps too. All in all, you probably look like a damn gay pirate wearing all that crap. And the board of directors wonders why their sales are in the dumper. Wake up fools. This is 2024 not 1960.

What the hell were you doing in India anyway? 😂

Harley Davidson needs to brake old paradigms to create new routeway and new vision, to create new products more adjusted to the consumers. Great video , and great research of the president elect Trump about the numbers and facts about this great coompany, Harley Davidson has many followers and clients here in MEXICO, and probably if HD create a strategy with high quality with low cost , I think HD will continue in the market like a leader .

They were always junk.

BMWs got problems. All the time, and Kawasakis also. I switched to Honda. Now, no problems at all. So far, I had 5 different Honda bikes. I'm definitely staying with them.

It's not hardly davidson..It's American riders that keep these people in power until it's to late just like jeep/ doge ram it was an American company at one point if you keep paying the price for these bikes there going to keep selling simple as that paying over 40 to 50 thousand dollars for a motorcycle is just fu@king nuts just like paying a hundred thousand for a pick up truck because is has a hardly name on it if I see stupid on your forehead I'll sell it to your dumb a$$ to

Most reliable? this video is bullshit lol
