I've had two VStrom DL1000 motorcycles over the last 12 years. You can't wear them out, I just bought a new one because I caught a year end closeout deal that was too good to pass up. My old one ran better the day I sold it than the day I bought it. Very reliable motorcycle. My first one was a 2009, my new one is a 2019.

[@RiderXp]

Awesome! Thanks for sharing.

[@timothyangus954]

Had my V Strom 650 10 years now, a second gen model. In 2018/9 I rode it 2 up around the world. No reliability issues, comfortable and 70mpg. Planning a round Europe trip this year.

[@RiderXp]

wow! Salute to you sir and best wishes for future adventures. Thank you for sharing your experience. Cheers!

[@njbification]

I bought a V-strom 4 years ago and I’m not tempted to change it with any of these other bikes. 16k miles no problems at all 75mpg. Yes I’m not keen on the front but you can’t see that when you’re riding it. Best feature is the engine and reliability. I’ll be keeping mine. Doesn’t hurt that I have a great dealership in my locality.

[@RiderXp]

That's fair. Suzuki's approach tends to be, why fix it, if it's not broken.

[@konovo223]

That's better than what I'm working with mpg wise. The 2022 versys was rated at 70mpg but it's more like 58 to 60 and that's keeping it 3k or lower rpm avg...

[@njbification]

My v Strom averages 62mpg at motorway speeds with luggage, on a 2200 mile tour of mixed roads was 72 mpg. General riding 75mpg

[@silverback802]

I had a 2014 vstrom 650 with 61,000 trouble free miles. I just could not buy the new model because of the beek. I went with a Kawasaki versys 1000 and love it. It is everything the vstrom was and a lot more.

Love my '22 black 650 XT Adventure. Wouldn't trade for any of these bikes. I'm sure they're all fine machines, but after having 2 3rd gen 650's, these bikes continue to amaze me. From being overloaded with gear and my gf up long, steep grades on the highway in 105 deg. weather to twistier than twisty mountain roads the little VTwin never gives up. And no matter what anyone says, I admire the presence of the DL.It looks as cool as my HD Low Rider S when it's sitting next to it.

[@RiderXp]

I’ve had the opportunity to ride and review about 90 bikes in the past 2 years and the VStrom 650 is hands down my favorite bike so far. I’m not a fan of how it looks but man it’s the most fun bike i’ve ever ridden!

[@konovo223]

I got the 2022 versys 650 as my first streetbike but iv raced dirtbikes for as long as I can remember. I'd love to ride others but as far as I can tell the versys doesn't have any problems with it. I'd prefer a more fun bike like a super sport or something super peppy like a KTM Duke or yamaha mt series bike but as for comfort with all around reliability the versys has all the boxes checked at a decent price.

[@meattooth1303]

without riding any of these bikes before, the triumph looks, sound and specs overall seem the best, IMO.

What a great idea to add exhaust sounds! Very well done, and thank you!

[@RiderXp]

[@jsveiga]

Thank you for the detailed comparison! I considered the NC750x and the Versys when I got my VStrom (the T700 is not available here). My wife chose the VStrom as soon as she tried the pillion seat. The Tiger is tempting, but what scares me away from it and other "premium" brands is the cost of maintenance/parts. The Trident is supposed to have been designed to cost less to maintain; I hope the Tiger 660 achieves that too. Then if it passes the wife test, it will be unbeatable for me!

[@RiderXp]

I'm glad you liked it. Vstrom passenger comfort is legendary among these 5 bikes. The Tiger would be good, but beating the Vstrom would be difficult in that area.. Good luck 👍

[@rasichap]

A pillion will hate the Tiger.

[@RiderXp]

I might agree with that. Just riding by myself, it felt quite sporty or even somewhat firm which a pillion would find uncomfortable.

[@rasichap]

@@RiderXp I don't think the ride is the problem. Just looking at the seat tells you a lot. The passenger area of the seat is very small and also too high. My pillion found it a lot less comfortable than my 2000 ZX6R Ninja. I suppose Triumph were thinking that nobody is going to do any 2-up touring on a middleweight. I have done it on a NC750 with great success but that bike doesn't have enough spice for me.

[@victorherrero4790]

Great video, love it, so I suscribed. My opinion: *Looks,I know its subjective..but: 1. Yamaha Tracer 2.Triumph Tiger 3. Suzuki V Strom 4. Honda NC 5. Kawasaki Versys *Engine: 1. Triumph, sporty and smooth 2. Suzuki,linear and reliable. 3. Yamaha, sporty 4. Kawasaki, reliable 5. Honda, high torque, low hps. * Aids/ electronics: 1. Tiger 2. NC 3. Vstrom 4.Versys 5. Tracer * Value: 1. Tiger 2. Vstrom 3. NC 4. Tracer 5. Versys *Reliability: 1. Suzuki, Kawasaki, Honda,Yamaha 5. Triumph Overall I think it depends of your taste and riding style, you want power and electronics the Tiger wins hands down, you want a sporty and light tourer then the Tracer wins, want something confortable and all around the Honda wins with that DCT, you want a good overall tourer then the Versys, you want an all rounder tourer with a bulletproof engine and capable of mild off road then the Vstrom. The only thing missing for the Tiger was the cruise control. Lets see Suzuki's answer for the next 650 Vstrom Gen. My final take: The Vstrom.

The sound of a Triumph triple is sweet, sweet music. I only need 150 miles on a tank since I'm getting off the bike at that point whether I need fuel or not.

[@RiderXp]

That's a fair point. Rarely have I ever gone more than a 150 miles on a stretch except when I attempted saddle sore challenge many years ago and even then, I don't think I rode longer than 300 kms (~186 miles) at a stretch.

[@pavelmullo2326]

suzuki is the only one that will give any comfort if you plan to do any offroad, but on the good quality roads I guess it is about the look, reliability, aspect of fun vs. comfort, high way traveling vs. cornering stability, and people will be ranking them according to their preferences.

[@TheHomeExpert5]

The bike I'd like most to have in this group is easily the Triumph. It looks the best, it has the best sounding and feeling engine, makes the most horsepower, and is the second lightest. Can't beat that with a stick.

Thank you Kawasaki finally!!!! 👍

[@podunkman2709]

For what? You travel 1000km without stop? Large tank = heavy motorcycle, bigger fuel consumption, bigger risk.

[@jimmyrexrode1135]

Yo Rider XP! This video is probably the best comparison video I've seen for this class of bikes. Thank you! I have a VStrom 650 and I'm having a blast on it! I traded away an FJR1300 for it and I love that it's 180lbs lighter and thankful that it has 1/2 the HP! I believe it'd be a very good 1st bike for anyone because it has a very tame character, yet in the hands of an experienced biker it can still get up a go quite well. It can cruise at 80mph all day long. The seat is very comfortable, too, enabling high mileage days without too much monkey butt.

[@RiderXp]

Thank you! I’m glad you liked it. I recently test rode the Vstrom back to back with some other bikes and made another test ride and comparison video. It has made me think that the Vstrom might be the bike I’ve been looking for. Here’s a link to the new test ride video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eoW9YoSMadp6raM

[@silv3rArrow]

The 2022 Versys now has TC & 2 rider modes with a new TFT dash. That makes it a serious contender for this category

[@chrisw4215]

the only bike without the TC is Tracer 7. I think its a drawback

[@Badhagis]

Looks: Versys, Tiger, Vstrom, Tracer, Nc750x...Sound Versys and Tiger tied for first, Tracer then whatever after that...As far as weight, I disagree that the weight doesn't matter on the go. Here on the US highways, there are a lot of Semi-tractor trailers that create a LOT of wind, passing or being passed, and the extra weight is noticeably helpful. Now, I don't know about the fuel consumption of the other bikes in the real world, but I DO know that my Versys gets 55mpg. That's 302 miles on a tank (YMMV). The Triumph Tiger Sports 660 is a beautiful machine, but I'll stick with my Versys. Truly outstanding review (Once again, and as usual). Thanks, and keep up the great work!!

[@RiderXp]

Thank you for such thorough comment and appreciation. About the weight, I was suggesting that a heavier bike isn't a disadvantage on the go. So yeah, you've highlighted a great point that on US highways, it's actually quite an advantage.

Nice video, Rider XP. Very thorough and detailed. I ride a V-Strom 650 myself, it's a solid and reliable tourer, never disappointed me.

[@pcofranc]

NC750X - actual fuel consumption is 56 to 58MPG with a top case and very tall aftermarket windshield and the only engine that is basically vibration free at all rpms but you give up power as it is adequate but the least powerful of the bunch. Versys is very very buzzy and the triumph should be the smoothest with 3 cylinder but it's not. SV650 is also very smooth and tried and true engine.

[@carrlee22]

My Versys 650 is certainly not buzzy at all. Perhaps you are confusing the 2015+ models with the older version. Kawasaki did a lot of work with vibration reduction on the newest version.

NC is on my list, hopefully in a year time.

Why does the SV650 sound so much better than the V Strom?

[@claytonlh]

I wish Yamaha would bring the Tracer 700 to the US.

[@me3851]

The new Tiger will be released in the US right at the time I’ll be buying. So, I’m pretty excited to see how it stacks up to the others on this video.

[@robertosharlie5769]

Tiger 660 looks different on videos, is smaller

[@boytangcangco633]

Best sound triple cylinder triumph

[@sarpkaya6336]

Perfect work buddy

[@RiderXp]

Thanks 👍

[@Orange-xw4lt]

Tiger sport 660 is amazing!!

[@aschneider93]

I wish the yamaha was available in the states. I would buy it.

[@RiderXp]

Yeah me too. I love that motor they use in the XSR700, Tenere 700 & M07

So much information in a short amount of time! Excellent presentation. When comparing, make sure to label every bike with the name and spec. I was looking at all the bikes getting weighed in a very fast display. I am unable to compare the weight to the first couple of bikes previously weighed. The weights are not labeled next to the bikes. Conversely, in the distance test you have the bikes and spec without the titles, I am trying to figure out which bike is which. I haven't owned or ridden any of these bikes and recognition will not be mastered in 15 minutes. The exhaust was a nice touch, but should have been for another video, maybe just presented stock and used the extra minute to slow down the tempo of the video. A lot of work went in the video (looks terrific) and the speaker is clear and speaks well. Great information, Just feels very rushed. Thank you.

Thank you so much for the detailed feedback & appreciation. I’m constantly looking working to find the balance of the pacing. Have made some of the changes you mentioned in my newer videos. I’ve also made a website which has all the specs of all the bikes I’ve ever compared. www.riderxp.com Thanks again for appreciating the hard work & research i’m putting in the videos. Cheers!

@@RiderXp the option package at the end was spot on. Labeled, colored, well paced and descriptive. The disappointment of not having a cruise control feature is non sterile, emotion filled explanation and resonates with me. I didn’t buy my Tiger 800 because cruise was a feature . It was done so well, the 650 has to have it before I would buy it.

Owned so many motorcycles over the years with way more power than any of these, but the Yamaha CP2 engine is simply a miracle. It's smooth, fun and as close to fault free an engine can be. Have ridden my gf:s MT07 on 0.28 liters/100km measured at the the gas station. Would any of the competition do that?

[@RiderXp]

Yeah I love that engine as well. Unfortunately the Tracer 7 isn’t sold in the US. We get it in the MT07, XSR700 & Tenere 700

[@ahmetkose7677]

Merhaba tanıtım için teşekkürler peki Yamaha tracer 700 ve kawasaki verys 650 modelleri arasında kıyaslama yapabilirmisiniz bu 3 model içinden sizin tercihiniz hangisi olurdu

[@brunogarenne-alabadi5030]

My look choice difficult to get between triumph and yam, let’s say 1-triumph 2-yam 3 versys 4 v-strom ex-aqueo with the honda!! V-strolbalways found it kinda ugly. A pity I am sure as most people feedback is a great touring bike, great comfort.

[@RiderXp]

👍

Fab review subbed

[@RiderXp]

Thank you!

[@JoeMama-vj8es]

Which one has the most relaxed riding position? My old CB was uncomfortable A F on long rides.

[@judge831]

V strom & Tracer 7 sound best to me. TS660 sounds 2nd best.

[@RiderXp]

The Vstrom actually rides the best in my opinion. Recently I got to test ride them all back to back and made this follow up video : kzbin.info/www/bejne/eoW9YoSMadp6raM

[@albertomarinho11]

Yamanha tracer 7👍💪

[@Vaisarger]
