2019 HONDA CB1000R PLUS, 'MY NEW BIKE' First impressions and what parts I've added! 1080P 90FPS

[@brentrichardson3366]

Awesome mate, glad you love it, everybody should ride a bike they love, not just a bike they have.

[@1Thirty1]

Great honest review!

[@MsDenver2]

I’m excited for you , it’s really good to see and hear your enthusiasm , I hope you get a lot of pleasure riding it , bet your mates like it . I used to love twisty roads in wales 👍😎

happy new bike day, you can't beat honda for quality, we all have different budgets, style and different needs of what the bike is to be used for because we are all individuals.

[@GMANS_BIKES_CARS]

So true Andy, very easy to criticise someone for what they like, end of the day it’s down to personal choice 👍

[@MotoGoYo]

It does have a proper bike look to it without being overkill. Also looks like it leans well. In all-black it would look like a mean machine!

[@anthonytaggart5598]

Got mine 5 months ago to commute into London and back come rain or shine. Love it! But do want to get rid of the horrible original mirrors.

[@MsDenver2]

I think the black is gorgeous , Honda have always done good black finishes.

[@Parakitedude]

I have to admit, I didnt like the Neo-retro look first but now I think this is the best looking non streetfighter. Your bike looks awesome!

[@GMANS_BIKES_CARS]

It was a good bike, rear suspension crap, traded it for a super duke r which is a million times better 😜

[@Parakitedude]

@@GMANS_BIKES_CARS that is what I have heard. The rear suspension sucks :( the question is if a Öhlins shock can make improve the bike? I have just ride it one time and my feeling were that it is a heavy bike. Compared to the Gsx1000s the GSX feels like a 600cc bike. If only the MT10 had this look and and brakes:( The KTM Super Duke is a great bike but the insurance is 2000£ a year....it is just out of reach...

You can also buy a protective thing to put on the instrument screen.

I really like these bikes. I bought an MT10 but I was teetering on one of these. At least I can watch your videos and effectively own both! The Honda is a pretty machine. I looked at a Z900RS as well and a Ducati Scrambler 1100 (which I also bought). I think you made the right choice for you and you got that beautiful single sided swingarm which I don’t have.

When I had my Kawasaki z1000st in 1978 it cost £2400 brand new , of corse no traction control or radial tyres and the break were not as good as they are now but my shaft drive was great.

Your bike got plenty of horse power and you’ve got Honda quality , and when can those 180 horse power bikes use it? My last bike a Kawasaki z1000st had 97 horse power and that was fast so I reckon yours is great and thing is it makes you happy and that’s what counts.

[@ricardorrp]

Nice bike. I have the 2019 US version (plus version not available yet!) and today I installed the ASV levers exactly as yours. I noticed that the clutch lever hits the horn/signal assembly or unit if I set it too far from the grip. Did you have the same experience with the clutch? I adjusted the lever to be closer to the grip to avoid it hitting the signal unit and it works fine.

[@GMANS_BIKES_CARS]

Hey buddy, the dealer fitted my levers so haven’t noticed any issue, the l bet feel good and look even better 😜

Lovely bike, I am considering upgrading from a Ninja 650 to a CB1000R. As the CB is an inline 4 as opposed to the Ninja being a parallel twin I was wondering what is the low to mid range pull like in the CB as I enjoy this in the Ninja as it is very useful around town. Please can you let me know as apparently in Road mode the power is reduced in 1 & 2 gear. Thanks

[@GMANS_BIKES_CARS]

Thanks mate, I ride in town loads and power delivery is good and in the lower 2 modes the throttle response isn’t too snatchy and power is plenty! The real power is to be found in the upper rev range which I have not explored yet as only just had my running in service, you will only know whet you think when you test ride one, cheers, Grant

[@GMANS_BIKES_CARS]

Yes buddy, I found in sport mode at lower speeds the throttle response was a bit snatchy but ok when pushing on, I’ve kept it in normal mode whilst I’m running it in and throttle response is way smoother, termi pipe is maybe my favourite, just need to make sure the baffles can be removed 😜

[@markbright7845]

Tried this myself from John Banks last year. Didn’t think it was worth the original price, but presumably they have not sold as well as hoped (like the 2017 Africa Twins) hence the sudden dealer deals. Even the VFR 800 is only £9999 now. Nowhere to put any luggage apart from a tank bag or rucksack, so to me it’s a town machine only. Not practical for any great distance.

Iain young who on a nice bike actually keeps the correct size plate on anyway, no one I know does 😜

Had me going there, you got a great deal on your new bike, mine goes tommorrow as I’m swapping it in for a new bike 😜

scared of sport mode.

[@GMANS_BIKES_CARS]

When I made that video I was still running the bike I’m so was taking it easy, now it’s in Sports mode all the time unless I’m riding in traffic as the throttle is snatchy in sport mode 😜

Man I thought I turn over bikes a lot

[@GMANS_BIKES_CARS]

I like a change, always do ok chopping in for a new bike and never really loose much money in the process either, too many good bikes out there to be on the same one for long, roll on the Streetfighter next year I say 😜

[@jackchristodoulou197]

G-MAN'S Bikes & Bits I agree I have changed 5 bikes in 3 years, have no debts love bikes so stuff it why not

[@CHIBA280CRV]

That is one bike I definitely will consider purchasing for my next bike.. I have to say I enjoyed watching the video , but your voice over the Mike sounds a bit muffled and ear irritating ,,!! I had a hard time listening to your voice and stopping from watching the video.. honestly it irritates my ears.. you sound like your screaming into a rolled up t-shirt.. everything is mono sounding. I think it's cause you have the mic either too close to your mouth and or behind the padding.. don't know if anyone else agrees, or it's just my ears..

[@GMANS_BIKES_CARS]

I have the mic tucked into the cheek pad as my helmet is so noisy, I’ll try and talk a bit quieter to see if that helps 👍

[@richiektm]

I’ll give you a month bored and sell it

[@GMANS_BIKES_CARS]

I’ll be keeping it Atleast 2yrs as it’s my daily run around, I’ll get another Ducati once I see whet new bikes are at bike show in November, hopefully V4 Streetfighter 👍

@@GMANS_BIKES_CARS I've had loads of different bikes over the years, last one was a new KTM Super Duke R 1290. I've just bought a really low mileage XT660R cause I fancied a change and a bit of green laning It sounds fantastic and is great fun. But the one bike I've had which I miss the most was a CB1000R. Just great in every way. I love naked bikes and this new one looked great in the photos and even better seeing it for real. Awesome bike brother. Enjoy 👍👍👍

[@GMANS_BIKES_CARS]

George Newell , cheers George, some people don’t get the CB1000, it’s a bit different and I’m loving it, it’s no way perfect but for me it’s spot on 👍

Kawasaki are cheap build !

[@bakedbeanzontoast9078]

No lad!!, horrible generic looking boring machine, that number plate hanger looks absolutely cheap rubbish !!, what ever happened to that rather yummy Ducati Monster you had, now that was a fabulous looking machine, 'small plate' yeah great fun if you want to get pulled by the Gendarmes!!!, and that's not a euphemism either lol.👍🇬🇧

[@GMANS_BIKES_CARS]

Actually mate, I’m finding it a better all round machine than the monster, and in person it looks superb also 6k cheaper then the monster, we all like different bikes and that’s what makes life fun, also cops around my parts don’t give a shit about small plates 😜

[@bakedbeanzontoast9078]

@@GMANS_BIKES_CARS have you sold the Monster then!!, was nicely tricked out with lots of Ducati parts if memory serves, we do indeed all like different bikes, and can your cops come to my part of Englandshire please lol 👍👍👍😉

[@GMANS_BIKES_CARS]

Sold the Monster in January as wanted riding it much and got an offer I couldn’t refuse 😜
