[@dutchpride187]

Happy to see someone finally giving EBR some love. It deserves to be reviewed against this class of bikes. Now let's see the RX in a sportbike shootout.

[@portugezemonster]

this has to be one of the best shootouts or bike reviews i have seen and i have seen a lot. the level of experience and knowledge here is great, great intro, solid no nonsense information. 5 stars guys, well done.

[@A_Man_Of_Culture_]

The EBR wins for me in every category, it is the quickest, the lightest, the best on fuel, it has a chain idler which massively helps chain life, and improves final drive feel. Not to mention it is quiet cheap, and is extremely reliable in every aspect it is a no brained for me as the others are either more expensive, or just can't keep up in the twisters or on urban streets.

[@Pillokun]

I am pushing thumbs up before even watching the clip.. why because it is winter and yet we get a shootout! Perfect :D

[@giff74]

You're correct! I live in Ohio and yesterday was the first day I rode in weeks.

[@OneWheelUp_03]

giff74 I'm in California and i just rode home for 30 miles at 12am in my jacket and pant in 40° weather, glad I moved and can ride year long

[@markkharouta9733]

OneWheel Up the dream man. One of my 2017 goals - move to Cali! Seriously craving yearlong riding

[@macthomas5340]

it takes a VERY experienced rider to out ride any of these bikes. Meaning at the end of the day, performance aside, buy the one you like best.

[@ryangordon3798]

I couldn't agree more, I've only ridden a few years, a FZ8 and an FZ-09. Looking at getting my next bike in a few months and the Tuono is a bike i really like but i feel is too much bike for me IMO, would never be able to get the most out of it aside from track use. The Speed Triple on the other hand is a bike that i think is more of a perfect all-arounder.

[@Shah_creates]

I have test rode many streetfighters but that EBR... whoa! Never rode anything that nimble and easy to turn at over 1000cc. The unique brakes and awesome low center of gravity because of the fuel-in-frame... it oozes character in this roundup (although never rode the Tuono R or fZ-10).

[@oLittleBear]

I love my Buell, and would love an EBR even more. Congrats to Erik for making a truly world class motorcycle, enough to hang with (and even pass in some ways) these other amazing machines.

[@MatthewEbel]

No, I am NOT getting tired of the streetfighter shootouts. :)

[@ross5506]

That's probably cause we're getting older, love the power, but now at 54 I want comfort. Even my ZX14R is bit much for the city.

[@sparkme123]

Never bored of naked bike shootouts, keep them coming guys. Next one..Super Duke R

[@247th]

Reporting in from New Hampshire where I'm happy to have a dry day above 45 degrees F. These videos keep me sane during the winter. Bless them!!

[@Rowdy_Bikes]

Very informative. Glad to see the EBR get some love here.

[@thebayleaf221]

I'm happy that the video editing is crisp 10/10. Did you guys sack the editor and replace him with a new one? Or am I missing something here?

[@dwnforcemedia]

The first 30 seconds I wondered the same thing. I hope this awesome quality continues!

[@ShipReK66]

I am so glad to finally see an EBR in a shootout/review as there are too many people who still think they are out of business. I think it's sad how many people still hate on them...just for being different.

[@BizAutomation]

Definitely not bored... can't get enough of these elite sport bike shoot-outs. Keep them coming !

[@nocornerscut5314]

I've watched this review around 20X now. Purchasing another SX is inevitable for me, its perfect.... RAW street fighter. No bells and whistles just raw.

[@davidwales9657]

I am so not sick of shootouts, keep doing them!

[@Nastuf]

Call me greedy but I love them all and want them all

[@maxx666mayhem]

Nastuf me too

[@mayurkulkarni1990]

typical MCN fanboy

[@gummybear41283]

that Triumph looks freaking beautiful from the side view. EBR looks cool too.

[@bikersquest]

Love the engine sound comparison going on there

[@peterc7327]

Great comparison, MT10 wins for practically, Japanese reliability, overall comfort and has a decent cruise control for taking the long ride home.

[@mrxcman9272]

FZ10 is hands down the best bike featured in this video.

[@ShamanWS6]

In some other reality, perhaps.

[@nightrider3067]

*Im starting to fall in love with EBR*

[@MoTremor]

Fall in love with Buell XB 5 years ago , )) Maybe some days I can buy EBR SX or Buell 1125 CR ))

[@nightrider3067]

MoTremor Update i bought a EBR 1190rx and love it.Paid $9995 $11500 after all said and done with delivery

[@MoTremor]

Night Rider Now in Russia all in economics go to the collapse and so difficult to earn money for buy a new bike 😕😣

[@rippin187]

What dealer did you buy it from? I can't find any in Nevada!

[@cristobaltorres3625]

Thank you Eric Buell for coming back around to us people on a budget! As soon as grab another Buell, I'll die a happy man 😎👍

[@elijahpirtle]

And the next shootout of these with the new Black lightening EBR will be awesome! Love every one of these bikes

[@maxx666mayhem]

Awesome awesome awesome Seriously this shootout is the best I've seen... From the intense intro to the bikes themselves.... Keep up the awesome job you guys are doing 😀

[@Frankenthe3rd]

Awesome job guys! The more shootouts the better. Can't wait to see the '17 Tuono vs the '17 Super Duke!

[@patrcktoole4052]

I love my sx. Handles very well. Power is an understatement !

[@zmcg1]

a little EBR love :') beautiful, I just hope Erik can make a comeback.

[@r1deftone]

Love it. No bad choices. Great time to be a motorcyclist. I went with the FZ-10 for all the reasons stated + IMHO cost of ownership and reliability. Very happy with my decision.

[@DJMotoVlogs]

Great video guys and I can tell you guys really upped the production value.

[@snakerb]

IMO: 1 Aprillia. 2 EBR. 3 Yamaha. 4 Triumph

[@TheBayAreaRacing]

EBR's are awesome for the riders who like to push their limits, the bike is super stable at its limit.

[@powertrip1050]

these reviews are great! Keep it up. I'm still trying to decide which to buy and this info is soooo useful before the test rides...

[@Greenmachine305]

All awesome bikes. Tough choice between the Triumph and the EBR.

[@bloodysinner9456]

Great job on the video editing! Such a fun watch.

[@pablononpicasso1977]

Thanks to the Motorcycle.com guys for the cool reviews and this one as well. It's helped me evaluate bikes on my to buy list. Hard to pick one particular bike in this group which shows how good bike builds are getting.

[@arob2434]

Great video. The production is getting way better! Thanks

[@Chris-Brauch]

Absolutely love streetfighter bikes. So much better for road than supersports. Thank you guys so much for the input. I'm dead set on tuono for me. Keep doin the shootouts. Here's hoping the 2017 Aprilia is even better! Cheers

[@dennismiller1933]

This video is why I bought my 2017 FZ-10

[@nexorabolis]

Great video! And no, not until I own a Super Duke or a Tuono will I ever get bored with seeing you guys have fun on these bikes. So..... I'm given you 5 or 6 more years haha. Once I'm out of college, then we'll see. Keep up the great work guys :D

[@jerryx2000]

Aprilia is amazing if you are ready to live with the unreliability & problems LIST of errors from an Aprilia Forum: • Stock headlights are poor • the horn - it's not a very good • Master Cylinder has/had a recall - ALL • Low Speed Fueling Glitch (Stock Trim, 5-15% to 0%) - Feels like hitting KILL button. • Models made before 9/28/2015; the rear sprocket bolts may become loose. (AF1 sells a "fix" kit). - ALL (before 9/28/2015) • Quickshifter has been reported to not quite work well. Sometimes False Neutrals. - 9* - Not determined if user error, or systemic issue. • Gear shifts not a smooth as prior model - 2 • Dash Dim/ goes blank and returns to normal. Dash Reflash IS available - 6 • Hot Start Issue - 3 (CAUSE: one user saw starter cable was routed improperly causing it to melt and short onto the cylinder head. • Weeping front fork seal - 1 • Sachs shock's rebound adjuster recently went from -10 clicks out to -20 - 1 • Bike accelerated by itself whilst warming up to operating temperature. Happens intermittently. and when slowing down for a junction almost as if the rpm drops too low and the ecu tries to speed it up again, only ever happened in the motors warm up phase and around 2000rpm (I think)...........................no fix as I just pull the clutch in to stop it, bike does not then rev up it just settles to idle • Engine loss at 1800 miles. - 1 • Replaced by Aprilia under warranty • Shifting from 2, 3 or 4 gears on up shift only and only once every thirty mile or so on shift and hard acceleration the bike has no power for about 1 full second - 2 • After 5.000km my dealer noticed leaking of my fuel. There was a puddle with a diameter of 10cm under the driver’s seat. - 1 • New fuel tank from Aprilia. Warranty. • Bike stall while in gear, off gas (while moving)

[@lukaszg74]

you can say that about all bikes . Those places are for people with problems if you go there you are going to see nothing more . Go to BMW forum or ducati for example it's the same problems

[@ShamanWS6]

Give the FZ10 a year and you're going to see all those brought up on a forum somewhere, too. Some people are harsh on bikes, some bikes had manufacturing problems, some bikes are just fine but the owners are idiots. LOL

[@koheio.1222]

1:04 That intro is rad

[@westy5334]

agree - 6:30 makes my private parts tingle too!

[@BuFFMotO]

Perfect way to end a year. I can on the account of all bikers out there, thank you!!!

[@MrCarGuy]

Between the Aprilia and EBR for me... followed by the Yamaha.

[@vagelispsimenos]

You guys have the best job on the planet

[@aluisious]

Great video guys, beautifully shot. If you could shoot and upload in 60fps it would make the action shots even better.

[@ApriliaRacer14]

On my second Tuono...upgraded to the V4 from V2. Honestly, I ride the damn thing to listen to the engine. Open it up and the engine just sings.😇

[@FCT8306onTwoWheels]

i test rode a tuono 2017 bike and on the highway i was able to stretch its legs only to the bottom of second and it hit 105 leaned all the way over on a turn along the highway cause i was the last one in the group once we reached the highway portion. The engine noise was a beautiful noise. Still getting the mt10

[@ihcnarf]

Follow your vids from south of France , very nice ! Thanks

[@roybatty-]

Once you get rid of the secondary muffler on the EBR, it sounds ferocious.

[@fvgc454ss]

With a Dean Adams full pipe it sounds fucking insane

[@Farmer1277]

Crank Rated horsepower and torque numbers off all the bikes in this shootout. Aprilia Tuono 1100R: 175hp 88.5ft lbs. EBR 1190SX: 185hp and 101.6ft lbs. Triumph Speed Triple R: 140hp and 82.6ft lbs. Yamaha FZ10: 158hp and 81.9ft lbs.

[@turbo311]

Impressive. Much better production than past videos from Mo.

[@krysistheabyss]

aprillia definitly sounds the best, but id buy the fz10

[@ShamanWS6]

The others outclass the FZ-10 seriously, though. I guess if you're trying to save cash...

[@fokjohnpainkiller]

Steve C Give yamaha a break will you? Everywhere I see you you're bashing on them

[@ShamanWS6]

Because the bike literally is in a lower class than the other super-nakeds. No sense in sugar-coating it. If this gets you butt-hurt, then maybe the Internet isn't for you.

[@denniscox9277]

Chris Fokjohn The only thing wrong with a yamaha is the rider !! FZ 10 is the one,

[@koheio.1222]

You do you, but it fz10 is the most street-able and financially solid choice. And in my perspective, street fighters are more appealing than sport bikes for their comfort, so I can sacrifice a bit of performance for comfort. But honestly, I too would drop a more few $ and get a s1000r ;) (I see what you're saying though)

[@fostytou]

This video is spot on on all points! We'll definitely need a new shootout when you can get your hands on the updated Aprilia and KTM though.

[@scottjorgensen9870]

Thanks for the video guys. I'm thinking the EBR would be the most fun to ride.

[@louisbunnell107]

Hell no not getting bored with them, keepem commin! lol you guys mention so many good points

[@dmac7660]

Bought the MT 10 and love it. The review should also mention reliability and Yamaha is tops in that department.

[@slowside123]

In fairness - I do own an 1190SX, but I have had the privilege of putting some miles on a 1290 SD and a 1290 Super Adventure. All three are fabulous. I bought the EBR without a test ride and I (by accident!) made the right choice. The SD is just a little more street oriented with an extremely grunty motor. The EBR is more track oriented and packs its power higher up the RPM band. I also own a '13 T675 Daytona and I can't tell you whether it or the EBR makes a better track bike. I plan to sort this out at Gingerman this coming summer!

[@gamelord]

The American sportbike....interesting!

[@PaulMEdwards]

TJTheRager EBR has a more sport oriented version called the 1190RX. Exactly the same power train (engine & gearing), just different front end & ergonomics. Check it out!

[@m.rsteengrei3569]

My personal humble opinion: , , , nothing will ever take the place of Buell XB12 lightning as a bad ass manly super funky hot street fighter..not now not ever.

[@protectork9831]

I liked the looks of buell but given it was by harley I questioned its reliability. Motorcycle are my means of transportation if it breaks I dont make money

[@sammyscrap]

As always, it comes down to which bike gives you the fizzy feeling in your gentleman's bits.

[@ALLDAYANTHONY]

I'm a Triumph guy, but the more I see the fz10 on one wheel, the more I love it. The aprilia sounds amazing but I feel like I would be too big on the bike at 6'1

[@Stevewoohoo75]

ALLDAYANTHONY dude I have a Tuono and I'm 6'2. It's comfy, not all day comfy but it's sweet to ride in between petrol stops!

[@devsenguptajavawarrior]

Best Looks: Triumph Triple R Best Engine: Aprilia Tuono RR Best Technology and Easy To Ride: Yamaha Best All Rounder Bike: EBR. I would gladly choose the EBR. It has decent looks, the side flaps give it a big feel even though it is flickable around corners, it is CHEAPER and provides a greater period of service time.

[@arunmenon8473]

we love this catagory shoot out

[@dravenlegaspi353]

why is the tuono a naked bike? isn't that a fairing?

[@riccardo1796]

shush, don't question superior italian design

[@Kalicdire]

Draven Legaspi its like a headlamp fairing and a lower cowling but yea much more covered than the others

[@nabiji]

Im going to check out the new Buell.

[@MrSlowestD16]

Think if I could have any I'd take the EBR just because it's so different and so 'hard' of a race bike at such a low cost. Really a nice bike, IMO.

[@future62]

I like these. Keep them coming. Looking forward to seeing the new Super Duke compared. How does the S1000R compare to these?

[@GIGABACHI]

You guys titled the video like it's a BAD thing...JOKE'S ON YOU. LOL. Nah, seriously, good work guys. 👍 Almost forgot: AUTOBOTS, ASSEMBLE !!

[@ONEBADZ]

damn a shot at Kawasaki Z1000...maybe it'll motivate em but that cannon ball hit Honda directly in the genitals @ 3:03

[@jacob5486]

Dude, seriously! Is the CB that shitty? lol

[@MrTemjin]

I hope they see this video! Damn CB1000R is still beautiful but no longer competition to these..

[@ONEBADZ]

Jacob Guerra I love my Z, wasn't a fan of the CB. Don't particularly care for the looks and I've heard it's just a dated machine at this point.

[@ONEBADZ]

MrTemjin I would have liked to see Kawi step up their game with the Z1000 but I guess they directed funds at creating a few different nakeds instead. Z900 and Z650 😕

[@MrTemjin]

Jacob CB is still considered the best bike to ride WHEN it gets in these shootouts, the lack of HP makes it a better all rounder. Thing is, it is the same bike since 2008 with no changes It can no longer compete against new machines. But normally the cb1000r derives from a supersports, so with the new Fireblade out we MIGHT have a new CB coming soon (in the next 2 years). ONE_BAD_Z I still dont get why they made a Z900....

[@andrewspooner8146]

There are more naked shoot outs to do that are not in this class, the new middle weight naked shoot out!!! New street triple vs FZ09 vs MV Brutale 800 vs Z900. I really look forward to that video, as I have always loved the strret triple and I want to know if Triumph has gotten the new one right.

[@Youtube_Globetrotter]

FZ-10 (or Mt-10) has grown on me a lot lately. I will try the MT-10 SP this summer.

[@wuzihuzi]

I love the videos just as much, keep them up!

[@Roger101Watson]

Great honest video guys, it sure is a tough choice. Love those Drone shots!

[@michaelhertzog9621]

Your editor is on point!

[@backroadbeetle4781]

It's like deciding which child you love more 🤣

[@WozzasSportsCruiserRides]

Great video, this is the second time I've watched it. I always wanted the Triumph Triple, love the look and sound. When I looked at and road the MT-10 I really liked it and the price point made it better. I've just done the Woolich Race tune and man it's fun. If I won lotto I'd get a few more bikes in my garage, the MT-10 is a keeper.

[@rosstinelli]

The sound of that V4 is awesome

[@jboy2621]

Are you kidding me?!! This is like "The Dream Team" of bikes. haha. The EBR wins every time. It's rare, the founder is still alive, and it's made in America.

[@013nil]

KTM SuperDuke R ?

[@tumdeax]

17K MSRP, not in same ball park.

[@spktylr]

Swapnil Chopade not new for '16

[@sparks2429]

Would automatically win. No point in watching the video if it was in it

[@dale-fi1fi]

Very unstable at high shake all over

[@ross5506]

For over 20K I'll wait couple years until it's more refined. Why Kawasaki taken away the ZRX 1200 replaced it with the Z1000 beyond me.

[@bobbyblueace]

I think it's fair to say the team prefer streetfighters to baggers!

[@barnesbarnes4570]

Cazzy R . 8

[@matthewkabbash]

The production quality is through the roof. As of late the just fantastic.... must be new video equipment or a new produce/editing. Music as well

[@Azrael8]

Could you guys do a middleweight class shootout on the naked bikes? appreciate it.

[@lolspain86]

Kind of wished you guys included the updated Superduke, the monster 1200r and maybe just for the sake of it the s1000r But non the less, a gret shootout as always from you guys, and a big thumbs up from me (Y)

[@Rythblaqk]

Oh no, another streetfighter shootout. ;D can't wait.

[@grantnicholson8684]

Never stop doing streetfighter reviews!

[@bastolito]

Can you please add a segment in your videos to talk about the roads you ride in ?

[@dinonoce]

Gorgeous background on the panel review! I'll take the Tuono.

[@MrAldioCahyo]

Another streetfighter shootout? Yes please hahahaha

[@exothermal.sprocket]

You guys really needed to put the Suzuki GSX-S1000 in the group. It's got around 140 hp at the wheel, traction control, power modes, ABS, Brembos, 43mm USD forks, plenty of K5-K8 engine snort. It's slotting exactly in the middle of the group, out powering the Speed Triple. And for a flat-plane i-4 that engine has character, the sound and midrange torque are exciting.

[@jeffbeasley8235]

Seriously. They make it sound like the FZ-10 is in a different league compared to the GSX-S. It isn't... The FZ has a different sound, sure, but the GSX-S sounds better stock, and makes more power everywhere until the last 500 RPM. And it's a lot cheaper.

[@exothermal.sprocket]

Jeff Beasley Very much agree with you, thanks for the extra voice. I've seen the GSX-S1000 HP curve overlaid with the S1000R on a dyno, and it is EXACTLY IDENTICAL until the last 2000 rpm. Guess what? The FZ-10 is down on stock power compared to the S1000R. The Suzuki is the best value, the most reliable, and with a full exhaust and tune? I dare say it'd stay with the Super Duke R.

[@jeffbeasley8235]

It would. Mine is putting down 157 at the rear wheel (full exhaust + tune) which equates to around 185 bhp.

[@exothermal.sprocket]

That's pretty strong. You have dyno graph proof?

[@MPI1000]

A dyno graph isn't proof of shit. Dynos can differ 20% or more and that's with certainty a very optimistic one he ran on.

[@brianhofmeister1279]

Great test guys. Miss you at Motorcyclist JB!! I still love my '98 Bandit 1200S. I'd take the FZ-10.

[@joshr8650]

there's something so cool about nearing red line on an analog tach, these digital ones look like they came off a 89 300zx. or how certain c4 corvettes had fake digital displays

[@phillipadams5931]

Test rode the FZ-10 and the Tuono back to back, twice, just to be sure.:-) The Tuono is sitting in my garage. I don't think I would buy a motorcycle from a company seems to be in and out of business every year.

[@matthewkonopka3012]

the noise that aprilia makes, cant get enough of that

[@cadeere74]

Stunning open, great job

[@boatymcboatface5476]

Love these streetfighter shootouts, I know its a bit of a boutique bike (like the Buell) but please bring a MV Dragster RR to the next one!

[@leighsydneychina1]

Hmmm I really like the review. Would prefer to see the KTM 1290 included. THAT is my wish list bike....

[@wildturkey7896]

Agreed. I so far haven't seen a bike I think I'd love more than the Superduke.

[@DavidCandelaMartinez]

Loved the video

[@jywang0723]

I have to vote for the Speed Triple. It's the best looking bike to me. Love its details and quality.

[@adityarai5367]

2:45 you guys testing a missile Looks wise i love the MT10 and the EBR. THEY ARE NECK ON NECK IN TERMS OF LOOKS.

[@TheDoomAboveAll]

i'd like to know how these stack up against the S1000R and the Super Duke!

[@aluisious]

Probably the new Duke will win...for me it'd be between the Duke and the Tuono. If I had a second bike...sorry third bike, I forget about my CBR600. Poor thing doesn't get ridden.

[@TheMarvelous1310]

Victor Von Doom Super Duke is 5 grand more than the FZ-10, nobody's cross-shopping those two. The EBR did give it a run for the money a few years back with less tech, so at 13 grand I think you would rather have some American muscle in your garage.

[@aluisious]

TheMarvelous1310 Plenty of people are cross shopping bikes across a $5k range. Just because you have money to spend doesn't mean you will spend more if you can get a good bike for less. When I was considering a new sport touring bike, I was really making a decision between the Versys 1000 and the Multistrada, and that's nearly a $10k difference.
