The engineer replied, In Japan we do not have a military industrial complex. In Japan, all the top tier engineers go into racing. I never considered that point of view before, and I think it has merit.

I’m a Japanese guy who currently rides a Triumph and a Suzuki. Japanese bikes are definitely reliable and affordable, I have been riding them for 20+ years since I was in high school. However, I feel in personally that Western bikes have unique joys and attractiveness that Japanese bikes don’t have. Harley, Triumph, Motoguzzi and Ducati bikes have iconic stories and histories, unique traditions, in other words they have something to be called culture. "Riding a Harley-Davidson" easily becomes the rider’s personality (Of course, my view may have a bias as Japanese). Japanese products are surely good, I love them but sometimes they lack those things while they have incredible quality.
@Floridarollin3 жыл бұрын
面白かったです。アメリカに住んでいます。すみません、日本語が良くないで、英語を話していますから。In the United States, Japanese motorcycles are not known for their histories and unique traditions like you said but I and some Americans disagree. I grew up around Japanese motorcycles all my life and I've researched a lot of the history of Japanese bikes I've ridden. I think they're unique in their own way. I think it is just that Harley, BMW, Ducati are much better at selling their history than Japanese bikes in my opinion. For example, I respect the VMax from Yamaha a lot. The bike is a unique V4 with so many Americans modifying them for all kinds of things. Much of the Vmax is put together by hand and polished by hand and the quality for the money is amazing. That also sells me to Japanese than buying other bikes. Despite making so many bikes, they put a lot of effort in making the best quality for the money. Harleys are definitely culture focused, I am surprised they are that way in Japan too. I think air cooled engines are fun and incredibly unique. Same goes for Triumph making some of the most famous parallel twins and Ducati's V4 engines and beautiful engineering. All types of motorcycles seem to have something that makes them unique. If you ever get a chance, you should come to America. You will be surprised at the positive things Americans have to say about Japanese bikes and the culture surrounding them.

Bikes are like GFs/Wives. *European bikes are your, hot wives, that sometimes do housework but mostly shops/or use your money on online poker. They are a pain in your wallet, but thinking that you've already spent that much might as well commit. But then again when you run dry, then she will go on to the next rich dude she sees, and you are left there lamenting on the past. *Japanese bikes are your typical house wives, will cater to your every whim, and will sometimes ask for your to buy her a new set of underwear/clothes from time to time. They are often loyal and faithful, they'll stick by you through thick and thin, unless if you were then one that decided to cheat on her for a hotter wife(European bikes) Edit: I added some more.

I had a Ducati 860 GT (1974 I think.) The engine had bevel gears and shafts to drive the cams. I found this machine to be very reliable. I commuted pretty much daily, even went on a road trip of some 600 miles each way, with no previous planning. No problems encountered. The only problem that I found very annoying was that the carbs were very sensitive to moisture in the gasoline. I got pretty quick at dismantling and cleaning the carbs. There was no ethanol in pump gas in those days, and I never knew if the fuel system would survive the addition of ethanol. The bike was a blast to ride. Wish I still had it.

I also buy electronics who have japanesse components in them.

Hard to argue when my friend has had his brand new Kawasaki for 1 week and is already past break-in mileage while my brand new Ducati that I've owned for a month has accrued 20 miles and has been in the shop for more than half of the time I've owned it. That's right....I got 20 miles on it before sending it back. Best part is the Ducati dealer acts like they are doing me a favor by repairing the bike under warranty (it was delivered with a leaking and non functional rear brake which locked up on me during my first ride and overheated the rotor to the point of bronzing it). The Ducati dealer actually used the terms "favor" and "goodwill" to describe their service. I still don't have the bike back. Ducati takes a week of down time between each action so it might be a while.

I'm a german engineer and biker... I can totally agree with you. European bikes aren't bad, but they are expensive and hard to maintain. Even in europe. BMW is a bunch of rich snobs. Doesn't matter if it's one of their cars or bikes. They are extremely expensive once you have to visit a shop and they are especially designed to not beeing able to maintain/repair them on your own.. I currently drive a Kawaski, had another kawasaki before, two Hondas and a Daelim (korean) 125cc bike. But i have to admit, that KTM (Austria, neighbour of germany) are extremely good in their class of Enduro end touring machines. KTM bikes run as smooth as a Swiss watch but still have character. Especially in the 125cc class, which is widely used by younger people in Europe due to the local laws. The Yamaha YZF 125 and the KTM Duke 125 started a whole new Era of quality in the 125cc class. Kawaski then followed and even Daelim caught up a bit. Before the year 2005,every 125cc compared was childsplay.

And what was Panigale's recall reason again? BTW you won't dare to speak about Aprilia and BMW?? Scared? 😂

The reliability of the big 4 is what really stands out to me. I've had 2 old 175 2 strokes (a Yamaha and a kawi), the Yamaha's piston was literally rusted to the cylinder wall and I got it to run with zero new parts. The kawi just never needed anything, it just goes. My dad's DRZ400 started running weird once, so he changed the oil and plugs for the first time in 7 years. All it needed. My first bike was an 83 XR85, there's literally nothing to say here because it never needed anything, ever. I have a Yamaha quad from 97 that sat outside in a farmer's field its entire life, tank was full of water. I drained it from the plug in the float bowl and fired it up as if nothing was wrong. These things can make a Cummins look like a time bomb.

I've never owned a European bike, but I once owned a Harley and it was a similar headache. Once I had to disassemble the entire rear seat assembly just to change the battery. And, unlike my current Yamaha, I couldn't just pop the seat off. I had to take off the chain guard, which required two separate sized allen keys for either of the fasteners. All in all, 3 HOURS of work to change a goddamn battery. Oh but wait, once I got the equivalently sized battery, but the auto-zone version, not the Harley brand, the bike would randomly die at speeds of 60mph and up. In other words, buy Japanese! My XSR900 hasn't let me down once, and my Honda XR650L was a total indestructible beast... until I killed it. RIP.

To be sure, BMW makes good cars and good bikes but Kawasaki have got the balance between cost, reliability, value for money and above all pride of ownership. Well done with the video.

Parts availability, reliability and maintenance are why I bought an FZ-10 over a Tuono. I can afford the repair costs, I just didn’t want to wait a week to get the bike diagnosed, 3 weeks for parts to come in and a week for my bike to get fixed. With the Yamaha dealership they usually do diagnostics within a couple days, most parts are on hand, longest it takes for parts to come in if needed is a week and the bike gets fixed in less than a week.

My wife preferred the Ducati HARD, and right now, she makes more money than me. So she agreed to pay maintenance. We are on a west coast tour at the moment. We went over 900 miles in our first 24 hours of ownership (we mentioned that to a friend and he mentioned how close we came to Iron Butt status if only we went another 70 miles!!).

I never owned a Japanese bike but I did own a kymco agility 50 (not very agile) as my first "bike" and it was a mess. The valves were a mess, it only started first try 10% of the time, the oil was used up stupid fast and what finally killed it was when suddenly when I was riding into college the bike just completely cut out. Turns out the piston was only creating about 10 psi in the cylinder head. It was only like £500 used but stay away from kymco. I'm now riding a husqvarna svartpilen 125 and with the exception of a faulty battery (because the bike was sitting on the show room floor for a yeat) which I replace with one the dealers sent me for free and the fact that an already low powered bike has to be restricted for the first 620 miles to break in the engine I am very happy with the bike. For context I live in the uk with dumb bike license laws so the kymco was a 49cc scooter which was limited to 45km/h (like 27mph?) and I got it at 16 on a cbt and the husqvarna is a 125 which I also got on a cbt now that I'm 17 (you have to be 17 if you want anything bigger than a 50)
