$1000 Track Bike Showdown! 2009 Kawasaki Versys 650 vs. 2015 Honda CBR300R | Common Tread XP

[@AleksiJoensuu]

Hi guys! As always, watching you folks do stuff is incredibly entertaining, and you put a lot of experience and effort into your work! I'd like to offer some criticism that I feel should be said: I applaud the written article for saying you went through the bikes making sure they are safe to ride at speed, and noting that it's lucky the CBR landed in the hands of an experienced rider. I felt that aspect was missing from the video though. It made me worry that someone would think it a good idea to get started riding - and start riding fast at that - with a bike that may have safety issues such as a bent frame, and *especially* making an effort to hide it at the track day. While the article recommends spending a little more to get a better bike, the video doesn't. You could have made the video more informative to new riders by recommending thorough check ups! In fact, here's my suggestion for any riders who are new to either riding in general or track riding: Never try to hide any faults in your bike, never try to hide your own experience! In fact, go for the exact opposite, and here's why: Most people at track days are incredibly friendly and helpful. If you go in as a new rider and pull someone's suit sleeve and say "Hey do you know anyone here who could take a look at my bike, I just got it and I'm here for the first time," I'm almost certain they will point you to someone who'd be happy to check out your ride and make sure it's safe. And you might make a new friend while you're at it!

[@SALTxTHExWOUND]

I used to own a ninja650 that’s practically the same bike as the versys and I can imagine it would be a lot like the sv650 on track. People don’t realize how much potential there is on track even with a cbr300! Don’t sleep on the small displacement bikes people 🏁👌🏻

[@SALTxTHExWOUND]

Ok just got done watching the full video... imagine being an A group rider on a 1k getting passed by a clapped out 650 or 300 with sawed off mirrors and tweaked handlebars, then to top it off you see it on KZbin by revzilla 😅 Tbh I’d be honored to passed by Ari & Zach Haha 😂👌🏻

[@cvdvds]

@@SALTxTHExWOUND Don't think 'clapped out' is the right phrase here. More like dragged out of the trash. Probably literally. But yeah, I was laughing my ass off when the montage of them passing a bunch of people started.

[@MotorDanko]

the Ninja 650 could ve very very different than the SV650... better suspension for the Ninja, but better engine for the SV... that V-twin gives you a lot better feeling than the paralell twin of the nInja, hands down.

[@AntaresSQ01]

@@MotorDanko Engine in the SV is actually not much more powerful than the ninja, the ninja has better low down power which ultimately is not too good for track riding. I tracked my ER6F and it's absolutely serviceable as a track bike. no problem getting knees down and with minor brake upgrades (pads, discs, braided lines) performance is all there to be competitive even in higher groups. Also the versys in the video is some premium grade shit cos that 650 engine puts out 72 horses stock, 68 in the versys (different cams even more low power) and can easily get 80 to the rear wheel with some in engine work and tuning

[@MotorDanko]

@@AntaresSQ01 Is not about the end power, is about how each bike delivers the power, i found the V-twin much more enjoiable than the paralell 180º crank from the ninja or the er6f... both are nice bikes, but i found the 650 parallel kinda boring... if only it was 270º or similar could be much much more enjoiable, sound better, and feel better... at the end you don't track this bike to be the fastest.. so if any of them are faster than the other, doesn't matter to me... both are solid bikes tho.

The video was entertaining, and I really liked the concept. That being said, for new riders on a budget if you increase the budget by maybe a couple hundred bucks and spend a lot of time looking you can find much better bikes to use on the track or the road. It is kind of funny in Canada the bikes tend to cost more (even past inflation from American to Canadian) yet the bikes are better maintained. I think we just typically have more time to look after the bikes in the winter time.

I have that same versys, to fix steering handlebar alignment, you have to loosen the front shocks, I believe that part is called the crown. Once its loose, you push on handlebars a few times and twist em around, so they align, then tighten. That fixes the issue for free.

"tip toeing around the track" going miles faster than I ever could haha

I loved learning to ride on a baby blade - Zach & Ari are 2 of the coolest dudes on the planet. Ride safe brothers.

[@LAWLER32tv]

one of the greatest videos you guys have ever released, from the content to the editing to the voiceover work, loved it!

[@ewann3]

12:57 that was about the most dangerous pass you could have done, but it looked sick!

[@gordonc2377]

Man that first run must of been more nerve racking than you let on with that twisted frame! You two are a riot! Thanks for the entertainment. I have had a few sub $1k bikes but the only one I would have considered taking to the track was a 1974 CB550Four

[@skycaptain224]

I‘m completely with you, with my Trackbike being a 1997 CBR600 F3 and loving it, all for 600€ 😃👍🏻

Great video prooves newer faster bikes don't always win the talent of a rider plays a big role

[@tobymcdonald3915]

Wow! The bike inspections in America are so much easier to pass than in Australia! That was a real shock that those bikes passed. In Australia, we can't ride our bikes on the track if there is a slight scratch or dent in the frame and fairings

Usually I think all street fighter conversions suck ... but that one was really quite charming

[@cfltitan]

Hilarious video! Amazing to see how much skill can make up for too! Watching junk bikes pass Ducati's and other nice bikes on the track was awesome.

[@stevelarson4487]

I enjoyed this way more than watching you ride bikes that are way out of my price range! Thanks for great entertainment.

[@shngsam8777]

love this episode!! please do more similar one its show that we no need to spent a lot to have fun in a track day and skills and experience do matters a lot

[@gracemalley6821]

Some of us can only afford this level of bike and do not consider them garbage but appreciate the freedom and ability to ride. Maybe Revzilla also appreciates our small but humble purchases as well. ..... Dudes!! really?

[@pandaSL]

You guys need to do more videos finally a video i am waiting every day for your guys video both of you guys are awsome

[@Mojo545]

So glad you guys are back on youtube.

Brought my sprocketed down zx10r to the little track last season and was legit afraid to feed it in as it wanted to wheelie every time on the gas. Got myself a cheap zx6r for this season, but it still likely will be too much. Will see, cannot wait!

[@mulichy4882]

This is so cool! I've been on group rides with the previous owner of the battle toad! What a fun connection to the video! I see other comments petitioning for a restoration video dedicated to the battle toad and I agree!
