[@brian99722ify]

got this as my first bike and honestly I couldn't be happier, it's really easy to get used to and it's really comfortable, I would definitely recommend this to others honestly 👍

[@Smoove233]

Does it feel heavy?

[@robertmassive5335]

this was your first bike?is it easy to handle for a first time rider?

[@nielshjorthjensen7560]

Just the comment i was hoping to find. Thank you! 😁

[@Tr1xter0]

my first bike was a 50cc before I got this, I thought it was heavy but the dealer put me on a 400kg bike and I no longer find this bike heavy. It's all just getting used to the bike@@Smoove233

[@bakerXderek]

I always love the upright torque monster bikes, they're too fun.

[@Cwis901]

+bakerXderek i know right i want one so bad!

[@bubbazaay]

+bakerXderek Me too, I fall in love with my fz-09 every time i ride it. You need to get one when ever you have the chance.

[@Dezagon]

+TwistedTorque i always feel like the suspension is crap and i dont feel confident leaning on it, but that crossplane inline 3 makes it worth it! i want one!

[@bubbazaay]

Yeah suspension is not the best, but i still push it way beyond want you can legally do anyways.

[@Dezagon]

i think the suspension not being the best is part of why it does such effortless power wheelies though xD

[@MissMan666]

it's the other way around. Z800 was already out before the FZ/MT09 was released.

[@QAnyui]

thats right. Z800 came in late 2012. I knew fz07/09 existence in 2014.

[@ninjakat8922]

Well the Z750 thoug (the predeccessor has existed for many many years before that)

[@josephiorio7376]

Q. Anyui don’t forget about the fz8’s. Came out in 2011 I believe

[@JackkDude]

I don't understand all the hate on these videos from Chase, I think him just riding and giving his first views and feelings are exactly what I want from a "First Ride" I don't want selling points or what's in the spec, I wanna see what it feels like to a daily rider.

[@ridinginsaiyan]

When you show off the bike with all those camera shots, my love for you just grows...!!

[@sharonsolomon2658]

This bike is a beast on the highway. He wont even hit 120 mph, but he'll bitch on the lack of power. Gimme a break. It a powerful 800cc. A great buy for ALL types of riders.

[@ATVoffroad]

Sharon Solomon that's Wat I was thinking my 650 is just fine on the highway I'm sure a 800 would be just fine

[@n2o4me]

I did a demo ride in April on this bike , liked it so much I'm getting one ! Your videos are pro quality .. great job Chase !!

[@defundprosports6407]

got my leftover 2013 nk1 last week. very similar to this bike. huge amounts of low end torque. luv it

[@CYOA03]

i bought this bike. it is a great bike. it hauls ass. you hit 4k and it wants to just go. it is a fun hoolagan bike. you can twist the throttle in 4th gear doing 35 or so and the numbers climb rapidly. the thing i love about this bike is if you lean forward and peg the throttle in 2nd you are going to instantly smile you just fly. very fast bike. very nice riding one up. has plenty of power for your pleasure and im 6'2 and 300 lbs. i prefer honda but they have nothing like this that is not a sport bike. the z800 is sweet.

[@JoeGo101]

I cant wait and hope the MT-10 comes to the USA :D

[@balsara675]

green wheels?

[@YamahaR12015]

+JoeGo101 If it comes I will hand over every dime I got!!!!

[@chaseontwowheels]

+JoeGo101 Dude you have no clue!

[@jharmon0718]

I have a 2010 Kawasaki Z1000 and it has the exact same seating position. It is the best bike I've ever ridden. Super comfortable and more than enough power to satisfy most. BTW that throttle is easily adjustable, had to do it to mine because it had a lot of freeplay.

[@Camramz]

Buying one this Saturday can’t wait 🏍💨

[@brendan636]

... he thinks thinks kawasaki copied yamaha .... the fuck!?!

[@marioncobretti2407]

kz1000 have been around for a looong time

[@QAnyui]

that bike is everywhere in our country... affordable, looking agressive, and nice sound.

[@ohedd]

Production value of this series is incredible. Editing is stellar, music is great.

[@Tyler-xq4si]

Love the videos lately chase!!! Keep up the good work!

[@kentroy1964]

Any plans to do an update video on the new 2017 Kawasaki Z900 that will be replacing the Z800/Z1000?

[@BLDH]

you need to try the SUPERDUKE 1290 :)

[@manknus]

+BLDH love ur videos dude! big fan! greatings from norway :)

[@chaseontwowheels]

+BLDH I 100% support that! And yes I really do. I'm scared I'll buy it if I ride it though. #jk #tooexpensive

[@user-if4qw1ee3c]

I remember when you only had 15,000 subs. Your channel gas grown so much! congrats!

[@mccrawrob]

Been waiting a while for this bike

[@ducboy9557]

My son has this bike and it is really nice. Sits much more upright than my Streetfighter but is very comfortable. The torque is pretty good and nice that it has ABS standard. He bought it brand new out the door for $7000 so the price was great. Definitely needs a new pipe.

[@chihangtonyng3729]

Brand new out the door $7000???????

[@SuperScootDude]

i wish you would have shown highway power in a lower gear than 6th. i am not sure how strong a pull you can expect from a 800cc I4 in 6th at 60-70mph? i would not expect much myself. it would have been nice to see it pull from the same speed in 3rd gear, or even 4th. but ideally 3rd. it does make 108hp, after all. redline is at 12,000rpm but it didn't seem you took it that high at any time. nice vid, though. i enjoy all your reviews :)

[@trevormorton8415]

Love your first ride videos Chase, especially excited when i seen you did this one. Have a 2002 R6 right now and was looking at this bike for when i want something newer. Having the low end torque, and able to wind up the inline 4 to high rpms sounds perfect to me. Can't beat the sound of a inline 4 with a nice exhaust. Just wanted to say thank you for making these videos available to us!

[@chaseontwowheels]

+1Down5Up It's my pleasure sir!

[@yves506]

I test drove this bike a day ago and it was awsome. I'll buy it soon!

[@onoff314]

Man it really is like you have no idea what you are talking about with these bikes or reviews in general. These have been a bike since like 2006.... as the Z750

[@junnutube]

+Onoff314 Indeed! 1st Gen since 2004, second 2007... I'm offended by this review :D I own a 2007 z750

[@uscarp5325]

No need to get butthurt

[@mobert92]

junnutube is it beginner friendly?

[@samuraipizzacat2171]

no

[@MoulaFox]

Michael Ortiz yes it is.. they even got 35kW versions... it's a heavy bike tho, you don't feel it in them curves through! I got 0 complaints about it.. just maybe one.. I don't got the balls to try wheeling it and I have too push the rear break very hard tho!

[@Doubledeepfried]

Guest the 6th is the hypermile gear, low revs, low gas use easy cruising. Wanna overtake? Drop a gear. Sounds perfect for me

[@SportSoulLife]

Indeed thought so too. Also for cruising on the highway you dont want your highest gear to be too sensitive/twitchy do you? Thinking of getting a windshield though since id commute at least 4 hours a week at 120 km/h

[@Adriansito1506]

Right ? Drop a gear and disappear !

[@pouniet1]

im the only one impressed by the video quality? Awesome job C2W

[@c130_crewchief]

my wife is wanting this bike. I'm glad it's tame on the highway. Thanks for the review bud

[@GeezyX]

Took it out for a spin once, loved it ;) It was the 2014 version though.

[@VelisicStefan94]

It's simple , i see 'Chaseontwowheels' new video i hit like.

[@balsara675]

true

[@chaseontwowheels]

+Stefan Velisic I can dig that kind of mentality

[@VelisicStefan94]

+chaseontwowheels Salute from Serbia.

[@12339442]

+chaseontwowheels you ever done one for a hypermotard?

[@Braselton21]

+chaseontwowheels Keep This Middle View Point Please :D I'll pay you to keep it :(

[@rb7994]

Great review. You've got it nailed as to what I am interested in for a review. Thanks!

[@chicosuave2966]

great review C2W!

[@jhschaustz9615]

in my country this bike has been on the market for a few years

[@QAnyui]

same here. there even Z800 club with hundreds of owner, just in town.

[@true_dvd]

damn in my country u can't even find a normal bike

[@AzNinjaguy]

Great video sir! So you know the Z800 has been out longer than the FZ09, 2015 I believe was the first year it came to the US. It has been primarily in the European market.

[@MrMigo028]

+Az Ninjaguy Yes, the Z800 come out in 2013, i have my z800 from avgust 2013. And its great.

[@rayth4386]

+MrMigo028 z07 or z800

[@MrMigo028]

z800

[@michaeljohnson9867]

+Ali Imran z800! mt07 has shit suspension.

[@SAViNGLiVE5]

Chase continually shows in these reviews that he doesn't do research on the bikes and doesn't know hardly anything about them

[@ciriusblackinfernal]

What a nice surprise I was looking for a review of this bike

[@pedrofontes9780]

LOVE UR INTROS BRO!

[@vix3196]

Everybody please tell him to do a review of the Kawasaki h2 PLEEEEEEEAAAAASSSSSSEEEEEE

[@Revvinthe417]

You seem to think that the Z800 is Kawasaki jumping on the FZ-07/09 train... but actually the Z800 has been out since 2013 only being released in the US recently. It is just an improved version of the Z750 they had. The 750 was introduced in 2004. So they have been on this for a while. A bit of research before the rides would be advisable. Getting to know the history, as well as, how the more feature rich bikes function. (Remember the confusion with the RC8?) Not being rude, just trying to help improve the first ride series.

[@ndperson1]

i know this is old, but he was mostly meaning for the US, till the fz 09 came along we didn't get alot of the cool naked bikes that other countries got sadlh

[@ndperson1]

+Jonathan Bauer *sadly

[@juliobighouse]

Dude, your First Ride series is getting better and better!! Good job man!!

[@chaseontwowheels]

+Julio Casagrande Silva Thanks Julio. I appreciate that!

[@Camramz]

I have this bike same year same color and I love it. Definitely recommend it to everyone.

[@miggov66]

Hey Chase, you compared this bike to the FZ09 throughout the video but never mentioned how it compared to the GSX-S750. I have ridden the FZ09 and the GSX-S750 and I am leaning towards buying the Suzuki. Should I add the Z800 to the mix?

[@chaseontwowheels]

+Mike Vaillancourt Yea, that's one of the downfalls that I'm trying to get better at. It's hard to keep up with every bike in a category when you ride so many of them. I'll keep getting better moving forward. Honestly Mike, I would drop the GSX-S750 off your radar and add the GSXS-1000. I wasn't really happy with the 750 version. Then again that's my personal opinion. I actually liked the Z800 more than either of the GSXS models. This one is definitely something you need to add into your consideration.

[@Andreboitchenco]

+chaseontwowheels So, the Z800 is the best naked bike for you? Is it your number one?

[@ndperson1]

+Andre Boitchenco he liked the fz 09 better, and then he absolutely loves the fz 10 and wants to buy it

[@TheXiang88]

#C2WFR could ya get your hands on a 650 v-strom? would be awesome! nice vid as always!

[@chaseontwowheels]

+Xiang Lee-Hong This could be possible

[@TheXiang88]

+chaseontwowheels thanks in advance and for replying, man! have a nice day

[@armypenguin]

+chaseontwowheels on second him vstrom 650

[@damienhannafordstaff3960]

I've recently stumble upon your channel and I have to say thank you very much for your videos. They are great!! I really like listening to your first ride reviews. Any chance you have a first ride planned for the Yamaha XSR 900?

[@WeistarLive]

this Video is really amazing :)

[@shittywheelies7403]

This has been in markets other than the US for a while now, longer than the fz-09.

[@2cool0]

+BTheFisch it's been in the us too for a while. they have been taking the z800 off and on the market every now and then depending on the demand. the z1000 have been around for a long time though.

[@marioncobretti2407]

you mean 1977? lol.

[@CockatooDude]

Hasn't the Z-800 been available in Europe since like 2006?

[@MrOutdoors007]

Yep

[@Chad5ter]

+CockatooDude Very popular in Asia and India. I guess we just get the rest of the batch...

[@DickeyMoto]

+CockatooDude yeah, but we just got them in the U.S this year

[@CockatooDude]

Dickey Moto I know, my comment was lamenting the fact that it took this long to get the cool bikes to the US.

[@DickeyMoto]

+CockatooDude oh ok, yeah man I hate that it takes so long too. I sat on a z800 today and it was rly cool.

[@jastinhaha2]

Thanks for the review Chase.

[@Bluejackets70]

Always a great choice of music for the first ride intros chase

[@bikersquest]

I thought the primary competitor for this bike was Yamaha's FZ8 which is also an inline 4 800cc bike and perhaps Suzuki's GSR 750

[@chaseontwowheels]

+Bikers Quest If that's it's competition then it blows it out of the water! Riding wise it felt MUCH more like an FZ09

[@bikersquest]

Ah I primarily say that because the Z800 was the follow up to their own Z750 which was also a a inline 4 that was out since 2004, They may have tweaked it for FZ09 competition ;)

[@WickedMoto]

Please do a first ride of a Triumph Street Triple if you can get your hands on one! I'm thinking about getting that bike for a second or third bike. Definitely want to add a Triumph Street Triple and a Kawasaki H2 to the bike collection. Just gotta wait for finances to take off a little bit. If i get the H2, I want to be able to get it down to you to do a first ride on.

[@BeastTrozz2000]

wow a H2

[@WickedMoto]

lol yep, i'm working towards it so. It's not a matter of hoping and wishing, it's just a matter of when

[@MrPrado999]

+Wicked Moto can't wait!

[@Jackelyne.D]

i like the way this guy explain things, its more natural and easy to go with,, make us excired to get the bike i just got mine over in danbury ct, i just didnt have chance to get it yet. congratulations good job man

[@xCRO3x]

Smart question to ask a preteen you fucking moron.

[@bigjon6954]

Chase like the new camera view and great first ride

[@FlockedfinderHQ]

Hey chase, if you'd except my criticism I'd like to give you feedback. I always look forward to #c2wfr. They are starting to become very boring though. I think you should learn about the motorcycle and hit key selling points. I was excited to learn about this bike but gained nothing from this video. please improve the quality. Thank you.

[@chaseontwowheels]

+Louis Menendez (JaxYamaRican) Thanks for the feedback Louis. I do research on all bikes before I go jump on them. I will admit I was really excited about the "other" bike I went to ride that day and might have not read as much into this one as I should have. I'll do my best to add more selling points into the First Rides moving forward.

[@Braselton21]

+chaseontwowheels Keep This Middle View Point Please :D I will troll you until it stays in the middle :)

[@Jakalwarrior]

Its almost 100lbs heavier than the FZ09. Thats a BIG downside. Good lord, did they make the frame out of lead?

[@Jakalwarrior]

+SunzOffski yeah but at that point you're probably looking for something with wind protection and a slightly longer wheelbase.

[@sstasy1]

Chase, the intro to your vlog is fucking amazing! Kawasaki should be paying you for that. Insane, keep up the good work!

[@jamiemclean8108]

Love the video. Thanks once again. Could you please first ride the new z1000sx

[@User404_ATL]

Did you change your camera position? I'm so used to seeing the Variant quarter shot.

[@chaseontwowheels]

+atownzone3 All first rides this season have had this new camera angle!

[@ReizePrimus]

+chaseontwowheels I guess it is for the better, now we can get a better view of the bike without the helmet blocking a portion of it. I personally think I'd like it angled a bit more down, so I can see more of the bike :)

[@dolika424]

+chaseontwowheels can you do a first ride on a husquarna nuda 900r and greetings from sweden

[@phillipbernal4611]

[@magicpoptartz1436]

Can you do a first ride video for the 2016 Yamaha yzf r125 if at all possible thanks and have a good day 😉👌

[@redliner6940]

+MagicPoptartz14 they are piece of shit...if you are a beginner which i assume you are since asking for a 125...Start of with an Aprilia rs 125.

[@magicpoptartz1436]

+Redline R6 really ? Thanks for the info

[@onoff314]

+MagicPoptartz14 No they aren't a piece of shit. This guys just a bit of a 600cc wanker. go check out riding with toms video on it, good stuff from what i saw

[@redliner6940]

Mate ive had an rs 125, and now sv650 and r6. An rs125 will dust a 4 stroke yamah 125. Yzf is all made out of plastic and has that cheap feel compared to aprilia,,smaller tyres and its slow..so dont go on talking about a shitty yzf telling me its good..

[@onoff314]

Redline R6 Aprilla RS125 aren't fast champ. the yzf is a totally fine learners bike

[@nicholaslajingag7209]

Thx Chase I was almost gonna get the z800 as for my first bike.I been riding for 5 month on my friend Demark125 and I was going to find a suitable bike Soo I started to pick the z800 afther seeing this video I changed my mind

[@NifBac]

Great bike!

[@VeeFour]

another nice looking Kwak with an awful tail pipe

[@chickenstrangler3826]

No big deal if you plan on putting an after market exhaust on

[@VeeFour]

Chicken Strangler It's almost like they make them knowing that everyone will change them

[@AzTechGFX]

+VeeFour I took mine off straight away, weighed about 5 fucking kilos ahaha

[@lit3plumber12]

+VeeFour Most people swap the exhaust anyway lol

[@hellolife1241]

Its nice that, akrapovic has the best exhaust for this bike... this akrapovic is better than even on the zx14rs

[@colefisch931]

drop some gears, it'll go just fine at highway speed. ;)

[@GiorgosFreedom]

love this motorbike!!

[@dizi17]

the z800r is a direct competitor for the fz 09 & fz07 and though it is, as i understand, new to the US, it's been around in Europe since 2013 and replaced the z750r. i got to ride it a few weeks ago, very very good package for a competitive price/ as you said chaseontwowheels - well done Kawasaki !

[@undecodable6145]

i am a new rider and i drove this bike and its fine

[@COOLS32401]

wow really?

[@undecodable6145]

yes thats true

[@COOLS32401]

maintanance?

[@undecodable6145]

kawasaki is very reliable but it needs someone who understands kawasaki because it has its own technology, i advice you tu get other bike in case you are thinking to get this one, its not very exciting

[@COOLS32401]

thx for the reply my man..

[@moustafaoubari7212]

Chase i beg you try the kawasaki H2 #C2WFR

[@abdelhakym8283]

+Steve Redhog It takes alot to take one for a test ride.

[@onthethrottle9230]

+hakim shaitit Like being a popular motovlogger

[@moustafaoubari7212]

hakim shaitit well he takes liter bikes :)

[@yourbandsux]

man I was watching your videos ended up going out to ride but turn right back home cause it was 1am in the morning cold as he'll and went back watching your videos

[@byVinq]

great video man loved it, your vids have been helping alot lately since my bike got pushed over ( stand side like over the stand the stand was still down when i picked it back up :( ) anyway man keep up the good work and love the write-up on the blog would be awesome if you did that for all the bikes and not just some :)

[@chaseontwowheels]

+Alex Livingstone I do that for all the bikes! I just didn't start that tell this season. All bikes moving forward should have the blog posts with them.

[@usoohot]

there is a deal locally for a 2016 model $5499 25 miles only. BUT it was dropped. no broken fairings but a couple scrapes and nicks here and there.....hmmmmm.

[@usoohot]

*5999* just double checked but yea still a heck of a deal.

[@MinecraftPLayer206]

do it buy it

[@sabbott5834]

There's a whole bunch of em now for $5499 brand new. They're having trouble getting rid of them. It's a niche bike and not very practical.

[@usoohot]

I ended up buying an 06 636. CHEEEEEA!!!! It only had 4106 miles and asking $4500. owner was pretty firm on price but let her go for $4400. Yes, I couldve spent an extra grand more for that z800 but wasn't really in the budget and I'm extremely happy with my purchase. Only thing that SUCKS was the timing. 2 weeks after I bought the bike.....found out I'm getting laid off. Fuck me!!! Beem with the company 10 years. I still have her and my 98 katana and my s2000 lol But I probably wont have 1 or 2 of those much longer. I have some vids of walk arounds of my toys. check them out if you guys want :-)

[@usoohot]

lxcast i know you're referring to steve but the one i found was used and dropped....very low miles at 25 but doubt its still around. Im glad i bought the 06 636 though...shes my baby.

[@daveqqqq]

Kawasaki H2? thumbs up so he'll see!

[@EminentLine]

There's nothing to see. So, no.

[@daveqqqq]

Other than a supercharged bike that's increasing popularity online, you're 100% correct. Nothing to see.

[@EminentLine]

+DAProfanity All you said was "Kawasaki H2?" and you want him to see it. There's nothing to see besides a fragment of what you really want to say. "He should do a First Ride on the Kawi H2". Just say that. Then it would've made sense.

[@daveqqqq]

+EminentLine Posting a short comment like I initially did on a video that Chase does a motorcycle review is self explanatory. I'm sure he's smart enough to make the connection. You're 100% correct though, I would love to see him do a first ride on the H2 :) At the end of the day he gets comments requesting to review so many bikes, it's his choice on what he wants to do.

[@EminentLine]

DAProfanity Then I agree. If he could get his hands on one, I'd like to see it too.

[@GriffXJ]

That's a nice looking bike!

[@AJTheUnexceptionalBiker]

The main reason I now watch these is for the camera work at the start of the vid. Amazing stuff :)

[@chaseontwowheels]

+A.J The Unexceptional Biker If that's what brings you in I'm okay with that.

[@lclutchl_bladez2277]

Just finished the Intro cinematic's... You're killing it Chase!! loved the timing!! really getting better as you continue!! i want to pitch the idea of maybe a zig zag slider shot.. like film on the horizontal and the Vertical, and just edit between them, just feel it could look cool, especially with a Z for the bike (i know its done, just for the future) Anyway Keep it up !! lCLUTCHl

[@NuclearNasa]

I'm waiting for mine to come. About 10 of April 2016 I will have it. I'm very excited.

[@NuclearNasa]

Also I'm changing from a Suzuki V-Strom 650 2007

[@JeffNoel]

I just love those bike intros. Nice work with the sliders and editing. Great focus job. Love it. (I have yet to watch the rest of the video sneakily at job). Edit: If you have the chance to try the 2016 ZX-10R, it changed a ton.

[@chaseontwowheels]

+Jeff Noël (ZX-6R) I was going to the same day as I did this one but they were waiting on a recalled part! I was super bummed that I didn't get to jump on it. Trust me it's at the top of my list! PS: Thanks for the complement on the focus job. (Geek mode engaging) I tried a panning rack focus shot a couple times that took me a few shots to get decent. The shot doesn't look that hard but when you are operating everything it get's a little difficult to nail. Not sure if that's what you were talking about, but figured I would share!

[@JeffNoel]

+chaseontwowheels oh bummer! Yeah that's what I meant. I'm a camera enthusiast so I really enjoy the work you put into these videos. Let's hope the pieces come in soon!

[@falconscoper4729]

Nice bike man

[@tatepeterson4940]

It would be awesome if you could do a first ride on a Ducati Streetfighter 848. I've watched a lot of videos, but your first rides are the best review videos out there! It would be nice to hear your opinion.

[@VictusPrime]

Very nice looking bike.

[@jasonmichaud2307]

I own the Z1000 and felt the same way on how the bike rides but after having it for a bit I love it

[@techten1012]

Hey chase, 6th gear on z800 is over drive gear for better mpg, if you want to pass cars on freeway, you need to downshift to 5th to get that power punch.

[@matthewsutliff123]

#C2WFR on a Honda cbr650. Videos are great man. I have been with your channel for like 3 years now and tell quality has just really done nothing but get better and better. keep up the good work. have a good weekend.

[@brockedwards7281]

Get your hands on a zx14r to review please! Thanks for the great reviews, and keep up the good work.

[@oilyfresh]

Looks like a fun bike.

[@rileynewman7702]

Best motovlogger by far!!!!!

[@Smoove233]

650ib, joe go, and faze matt are the best

[@Bob-tq2jv]

Fair play, this bike looks damn good.

[@jambo8792]

+chaseontwowheels best first ride video yet, love the slideshow.

[@JamesTrimbee]

I'm glad you liked it - I think it's a really well sorted bike. Most people will talk about the weight - she's a big girl, but like cars it's all about how it's carried, and the adjustable suspension and general handling are great.

[@pimanshane4797]

Hey chase loved the vid!! But can you please do more first rides on beginner bikes?

[@MrSavon42]

I just rode by that place in Lithia Springs this week.

[@z3r01245]

Feels like you're talking about me there at 6:03. Just got the license and waiting for the shop to do the inspection :D

[@SHOVELCARD]

thanks Chase for the review, I'm helping to run a Z750 Z800 group on Facebook and will be sharing with the 3k members. As always, another great video.

[@chaseontwowheels]

+SHOVELCARD Sounds awesome man! A group of these bikes would amazingly fun with some friends riding around.

[@loveJessica281]

That's some really nice B-roll

[@Soulbreeze]

Would like to see you hit up some old models whenever MMS has them for sale. Like the CBR F4i they have up now. Whenever there's an iconic used bike they get in, like a Blackbird, TL1000, or something like that, would be cool to see you ride those. A lot of us aren't in the market for a brand new bike and a ride review on those older bikes that still kick ass would be awesome. Would like to see your take on some affordable used models. Btw, my mom likes your videos because of your laugh I think. ;)

[@CmThayer33]

All u had to do is drop it back into 5th on the highway n it’ll fly by anything u need it to. I rode one yesterday n did just that n was shocked. I’m gonna grab one because of how impressed it made me. I’m over the whole computer assisted riding n loved getting back on a bike that u decided what it did n u controlled everything n not a mode.

[@TheOzTurkish]

I normally take your revviews with a grain of salt but i cant wait for you to ride the xsr 900

[@mkiv_bangbros3333]

this was helpful. i was going to buy this bike because of the price it was on sale at 5,599. but now im going to go for a fz07 since its my first bike.

[@TheSwissMotard]

I love the sound of the Z800

[@EvPalm]

This ok for a 6'5 36" inseam rider? used to have a GSX 600F (katana) and was fine on it for reference. if not what would you recommend for my height in the naked sport bike segment?

[@TimeJack13]

Thanks for these first rides! I've always put more stock in the spirit of a bike rather than the detailed stats anyway (I can find the numbers in a flash), so I appreciate how you talk about your personal reactions to the way a bike feels to you. It gives me plenty to estimate how each bike might feel to me.

[@bcanon9650]

Hopefully you can answer this chaseontwowheels. Im really debating on the kawi z800 and the yami fz09....whats your preference on the 2?
