Good video guys. You should do more like this. From an old guys perspective I'd be choosing the Triumph. It's probably lighter than my '88 Katana 1100 (which by the way I find quite comfortable with the ergonomics, Corbin seat and very handy with the factory luggage) and that triple sound and power would keep me smiling. On a 500 mile trip I would bet any one of you would choose the Triumph out of the three of those. ;)

Harley Nightster here. Riding since November 2019, over 7k miles now. I hace swapped my shocks for longer traveles, 2 inches longer, and must say that this is a totally new bike.

I currently have a Suzuki b-king and a xr650l adv, and a ttr125 for fun. I tend to like a big super moto type. I.e. ktm 990 smt. But yup every bike has it's fun areas. Fun video gents. Looking forward to more.

I have suggestion for a future video: versys 650, kawasaki Vulcan 650 S, and kawasaki Z 650. Three dudes, three bikes, three types, but same manufacturer, same year, and same engine size. Compare.

[@dextzapf]

I wish we also have that "rent a bike" here in the Philippines. Considering to buy a new bike here is an awful experience. We can only watch motorcycle reviews from owners and motorcycle reviewers and that's it. Demo or test ride from showrooms here are also seldom since there are very few dealerships who have test units. So basically, we do not have in-depth experience with a bike that we plan to buy before acutally buying it. For me having the opportunity to rent a bike is a very very good experience so you'll have a time or a day to spend with it and you can change your mind of buying one right after. Anyway, nice video everytime.

As a full-time Forty-Eight rider, I absolutely LOVE how Spite strapped a fuel can to the sissy bar!! That 2-gal tank is the worst!! My suspension is fine, just gotta work in the preload correctly.... or they are just old and shot on that bike. Anyway, LOVE seeing a Forty-Eight on the channel and the smack talk that goes with that.

[@jairusswint6703]

That's a nice forced perspective shot at the end there. Also its nice to see these three bikes as I've considered purchasing all of them at one point in time or another. Great vid!

Hahaha, I'm a sportster owner myself and I felt every bump spite felt 😂😂 but would never trade it. The Evo is such a nice engine.

[@jonnymac8925]

Love my Sportster! I have a 2018 48. People think Harleys are all heavy, my 48 weighs 556lbs wet. The older 48s were rough suspension wise, mine has the adjustable emulsion shocks they released in 2016 and front cartridge forks which ride much better when properly set but is still not the best. The suspension is my next upgrade haha. I would never get rid of the bike, I absolutely love it!

AHEM YUMMI R6 oh wait his content kinda dead now

[@johnb8440]

The way I see it, yammie picked a sporty bike that can hit the corners on a ride and excel. Spike picked a cruiser which will have very relaxed and comfortable ergos and in most cases would be comfortable. Andrews bike is the least sporty, but will take you through nasty stuff just like it's the interstate. Personally, I have a KLR, and it suffers in the sportiness department, but I load everything on it for camping trips freeing up my wife's bike so she can romp on it.

[@pellattsmith2737]

When are we getting a video of Yammie showing us how he does a wheelie in a proper, safe and squidlike way.

[@mitchellhogg4627]

[@justinturner4850]

I came from 10 years on dirt bikes, then a CBR600, to a Harley 48 and I actually really like taking my bike on the twisties. I wish it had more lean angle and it’s NOT a sport bike. but you CAN have a ton of fun on a fortyeight in the twisties honestly.

[@TOldMansJB]

I would love to let them ride my vision or my uncle's goldwing for the talking about weight. They are really heavy bikes but feel lighter than some of our friends adventure bikes or harleys. It's all about how its managed. Victory did a good job by having a heavy all gear transmission mounted really low, and the the low goldwing boxer engine. Dont let what's on the scale determine your choice, got to get on and feel it.

My girlfriend just got a Sporster Low (883), and I've taken it for a few rides - you definitely feel every single imperfection in the road. Which I kinda like, it's that sorta in tune feeling, except it's so stiff that it really handles a bit rough, and feels super skittish in bumps and stuff. That water crossing was probably fine though, the weight keeps it pretty planted.

[@Alexfelixmalik]

As a 48 owner I sympathize with Spite.

[@dracphelan]

*comment on the intro* The first time I went down on my adv bike was when I was going over one of those low water crossings near Glen Rose. There wasn’t even that much water going over it. I had no problems going over the one that has about 3” of water running over it.

[@iyeetsecurity922]

I rode with a group of sport bikes to the Leesburg Bike fest on my modded up Yamaha Zuma 125. Now _that_ was a very outta place situation. Had a great time though. They agreed ahead of time to not go over my 75mph top speed.

[@Kwikrnu]

The best bike is going to come down to where you ride, what you’re doing while riding, who you’re riding with, and how much money you have. I ride alone, ride fast on freeways, and don’t have much money. The Kawasaki Zx14r is what I ride. I went through a Kawasaki Zx10r, Suzuki gsx-s1000, and a Honda Africa twin before I found what I liked best.

[@LHT-Casual]

Also, my Tiger 1200 XCa has no problem in the twisties. I've put about 4000 miles on it with commuting, long distance camping trips, and close to a hundred miles of varied off road tracks. There's a reason they don't make the 1050 Tiger anymore.

[@chrischa8974]

I cannot decide on the best.......but.......I absolutely loved my Suzuki Kantana 600 in the early 90's and My 2011 Harley Nightster (Sportster) 1200. I liked the Sportster over my 2007 Roadglide because as an all around bike the Sportster was the winner. My opinion. :)
