adaptiveagile Abusing the clutch and blowing the fork seals???!! Lol get the fuck out of here. Don’t be such a pussy. I had a G-sxr with over 50,000 kilometres on it and never replaced a single fork seal or had a single issue with the clutch. And I did CONSTANT wheelies in that thing.

Traded my cbr 600 for 1000rr... first time riding t bike felt so natural, like i had been driving it fir years, one of t many reason I love Honda, bikes are engineered for all kind of riders, smooth power delivery, sexy style, reliables, geometry of the bike and center of gravity" is just perfect,....one more thing before I couple days ago I went for a 200 miles ride and on the way back I was going at high speed on the highway,on top of that it was raining then there was a tire on the middle of the highway that I couldn't avoid I braced for disaster And hit it in an angle with the front tire ... i was sure that was gonna b my first crash...but the bike kept straight line, no shacking, no lost of control... I love Honda Bikes even more now!!! And specially my cbr1000😎

Get Informed wow, you got lucky

[@dzikri98]

Great video man! I really enjoyed the 2018 CRB1000RR. The size feels like a 600 but it has so much torque and power. Very good road bike.

Man I just upgraded from my 750 to the same CBR, color and all. I'm diggin' the upgrade so far. The power difference is a LOT more than I expected. The CBR1000RR pulls in 5th from 70 to 100 like my gsxr did in 2nd (maybe 3rd)... I didn't expect it to be THAT much different!

Had a RC51 back in the day. Loved that bike. Had to sell it before I did something stupid to myself. I felt like I was flirting with death. More and more ballsy every time out, I knew my day was gonna come. I now ride a Harley, keeps me a little more grounded.

[@easttennstudent]

I've never been a big Honda sportbike fan but I think Honda got it right with the newest CBR 1000rr. Thanks for the video Salt.

[@RYVENANT]

I have been trying to convince my wife to give me her blessing to get one. She says mine is "fast enough". I can't show her this video, because that will ruin my chances, but this video confirmed what I already knew: I MUST GET ONE. I'm waiting til she takes a weekend to visit my parents or her parents, and I'm absolutely going to get one. What a beautiful machine.

[@biggiehorn]

[@dukedalington]

I had an older 1000RR and if not the fastest or most exciting it was the nicest sport bike to ride that I've had, just something about Hondas. I haven't gotten to ride the new one but I'm sure it's amazing

[@itsmeericb]

Dude I test ride the same year CBR1000 and it was amazing! Made me want to get one. The R1 feels good in the turns and it’s a monster on the straights.

[@Barwood35]

Not the most powerful 1000 but the best 1000 for the road. More power than you need and silky smooth. Honda’s are meant to ridden without electronics for the pure experience. 2012 Fireblade owner, only managed one ticket so far. Not sure why there aren’t more. You will end up with one eventually.

[@wascarg5341]

Am glad you tried that bike I’ve been telling everyone how sick those CBR 1000 RR are I had a 2010 that pulled your neck at 130 when you pulled on it . At the track “cough” And am glad you had fun in your cruise they are the best vacation money can buy :)

[@lightenup5698]

Since 2008 1000rr has been one of the most underrated and most reliable bikes on the road. Minus the recall on the 08s for the engine tick which Honda warrantied. My 2008 was bought used and 14 months after the recall had lapsed Honda still warrantied my recal cost. They paid 2000 something i paid 400 something in labor cost. Tuned with exhaust these bikes are crazy.

[@Kevin24Seven]

I got a 2016 R1s and I felt the same way about wheelies as you did for a long time, but even with wheelie control on the lowest setting the bike actually still is extremely effective at preventing even clutch ups. You just need to turn that off and hold on lol.
