One ride 3 | On a BMW S1000R

My mum just said that your bike has a "nice roar to it"

[@matteor2784]

Good. Mum

SmiffyDoo and so does she 😏

[@Emporerking27]

after having my s1r, i can confirm, the ride sounds are much much more majestic in person. The deep gargles and pops of a straight pipe.. videos even with this high quality audio, don't do it justice.

[@maxdavies9958]

Just finished my bike lessons and I'm now officially legal to drive, and have a sexy WR450 waiting for me. Been watching your videos for years, and it's helped me realise the amount the stupidity out there and what to look out for. Keep it up RJ, you inspire safe riding! Respect from Ireland.

[@royaljordanian]

Enjoy the ride :)

[@_SavageMcCabbage]

I most definitely will. Keep doing what you're doing :)

[@romainv8755]

Dang.. cover + double lock + chain... I don’t envy people living in London.. here in Seoul no matter where I park I don’t even need one lock. Feels good to feels safe

[@Mdsde]

Isn't that like herd safety? I'd assume there'd be so many bikes/mopeds that the likelihood your specific bike gets stolen is low. No?

[@khaddow1967]

Yeah here in the UK, whether it's a bicycle, scooter or motorbike, security these days is a must. Of course you'll never stop a determined thief but it's often just about making your bike more difficult to steal than the others.

[@toukosiren9004]

Here in finland I rarely use a lock on my bike either, but insurance companies can be impossible to reason with if they so choose, so at some "danger zones" I slam a lock on it just in case.

[@teno777]

TheGraveAccent more like different culture. You just have to see the type of people you can encounter in London vs Japan for example. With the latter, you could even leave the keys on it.

[@The-Celestial]

same here in India. We can park openly, I mean thefts are there but not as much.

[@Jamesjones19909]

I was in London at the weekend and every time I heard a bike I was looking hoping it was you but no luck maybe next time

[@mohdhafiz3874]

Untill now you have meey RJ yet ?

[@wereyouaking]

On Monday I took my first trip into East London and, thanks to your videos and training, I managed to survive and even enjoy the journey! I recognised some of the roads from watching your videos which helped a lot too.

[@jnbarnes14]

Very confusing message tho wasn’t it.

Easily misunderstood though, encountering a special escort isn't exactly daily and the hand signals aren't instinctual.

[@royaljordanian]

Oh it was you!! Hope we get to chat next time.

[@theincrediblesulk5543]

Liking the commentary! The fella with the Indian was having none of the chat just stonewalled. You can’t ride a vintage 40’s bike and not expect to get approached by everyone

[@MotoWaifu]

I'm loving the new addition of your commentary to the videos. You have a very soothing voice. :)

[@zwei-zylinder]

I genuinely enjoy watching these videos! Keep it up!

[@northernrider780]

That Indian was absolutely stunning! So cool to see bikes like that still being used and still on the roads and by a youngish looking chap too. Lovely lovely bike that.

[@dukeofbristol2180]

The guy with no helmet is what you call an organ donor! That beemer sounds great RJ.👍

[@dejv_a4]

I think that you are the safest and smartest guy on a bike, lots of people just don't think when they drive and are not aware of the consequence..

[@katsugi183]

Wow mind blown by the scooter dude without helmet and running red lights 🤯. Love the conversation at the beginning. Street hacks with RJ😎

[@saleendriver]

I really, really enjoy this format. Thank you RJ.

I’m inclined to change my first opinion about this kind of vlogging. I’m beginning to appreciate it. Thanks RJ.

[@adams7738]

Hi RJ! I love that you recently you started to commentaze your videos and that, you only tell what we need to know to enjoy more, if its possible 😉. After years I’ ve been watching you, you still can manage to give me the first time watching feeling which is just awsome! ( that “scooter brother” came from a paralell univers, I’m pretty sure 😂). Keep up what you’ve been doing please and stay safe. 👋🏻👏🏻😉

i just come over and over again just for this beast exhaust🤤🤤

[@assortedpov]

There's a guy who lives somewhere near my parents in coastal East Kent who has a 1927 Indian Scout. Doesn't even have suspension, looks cool though. It's what Dave Fox and co ride on the wall of death too.

[@phasedaniel9794]

what I like about you is you don't rage at other drivers when they are in the wrong.

[@Logoooo]

Nice video RJ, as always

[@edgeyt1]

5:00 don't know if it's the reason they do it but you're probably less likely to be rear ended if you're past the stop line.

[@Banane756]

Vpower, only the good stuff 👌

[@balance3201]

I always go past traffic 🚧🚦when waiting you don't gain anything expect may prevent someone rear ending you from behind.

[@markmark2961]

7:00 what boggles me more, is that the immense ammount of unsynched red lights every 30 or so meters

got my music station out, maxed out the volume and let the neighbours listen to you, sorry for my bad english :))

[@IbraCareca]

Once again the Interesting vlog RJ. I like going ahead of vehicles and keeping a massive gap at traffic lights , cause a mate was nailed from behind on the A3 due to a driver not paying attention and ploughed into him while he was stationary. He had to be airlifted by air ambulance as his back was broken and was hospitalised for around 8 months. The Video on KZbin. With the SEG, maybe the austerity cuts have lessened their numbers so they couldn’t even leave one static at the bus?? The no helmet or registration guy who doesn’t want to wait at lights, it’s only a matter time before he learns why the lights control traffic flow or meets a driver not paying attention to the road

[@vattumies]

[@abdullahgarasia2517]

It’s down shifting

[@101steel4]

It's illegal to filter? Jesus you might as well be in a car then 😞

[@XKavar1]

@@2kubal see the problem there is those drivers have a high lack of attention to their surroundings in general. Lane splitting isn't the issue, people just simply aren't good drivers, they don't check their mirrors, no blinker or no shoulder checks. Lane splitting isn't legal here and no one as far as what i've seen no one does it either but people still suck at driving to where they don't care whats around them they just do what they want to do because almost nothing ever happens to them.

Thanks for posting. Being rather tall, I'm weighing this model against the 1290 Super Duke R. However, the KTM warranty in the US is horrible, and it's priced higher than the BMW.

Hi mate, What mirrors are these?? Bought the bike few weeks ago, took it out couple of times because of the weather, but found OEM mirrors to be really in the way when filtering.. As I can see yours can be folded up if needed Thanks in advance

Do those mirrors have better visibility than the stock ones? Or is it just for looks? I can barely see in the stock ones on my s1000r!

[@blairwilson7386]

RJ, do you have a smaller number plate? If yes, do you ever get bothered by the police for it? I’ve recently put a smaller one on my Fireblade and just wondering if I’ll be stopped all the time.

[@royaljordanian]

No, never stopped for it but I hear different forces have different rules, such as the zero tolerance in Wales.

I can never pull up at a petrol station with the pumps on my right I have to keep the pump on my left 🥴

[@DowzerWTP72]

Ahhh see I'm opposite. I used to race Motocross, and I was always taught to get onto the bike from the left side, so now it's engrained into me. So having the pumps on my left would just be in the way of getting on.
