M90R vs M109R Review

[@DarkGMarine]

I was sittin here thinkin..."i'll go from an R6 to a C50. But now, NOW, I have confirmed the M109r. Period

[@apollyon1081]

I was skeptical on taking this review seriously but about a 3rd of the way through and seeing you replying to those asking questions I am confident I'm making the right choice buying this as my 2nd bike. Thanks for the review brother ride safe and keep up the reviews on these muscle beauties 🤘

[@tuskegee87]

I like to switch it up. Sometimes reviews can be a little dry so I wanted to make it fun at least. Thanks for reviewing an subscribing. You'll love it. I might be the last bike you buy. Stay vertical.

The biggest difference between the 90 and the 109 is felt at full throttle. The 109 makes like 30+ more horsepower and has at least another 30ft. lb of torque. The 90 also only tops out around 120.

[@evil03mustang08]

Additionally, this reviewer has not gotten that big 109ci lump up into its power band during this video... if he had, we’d have all heard the PAIR valve open and his OMFG response. The 109 might have tons of torque, but it also loves to rev. Ok yeah maybe I’m a 109 fanboy... my 90 is great, but it’s no 109.

[@jaymoody4466]

The tires on m90 are cheeper if that makes difference to anyone

[@577buttfan]

Never even opened it up bro wassup

[@donsoprano3335]

Very informative, great review, thank you sir

[@tuskegee87]

Don Soprano you are welcome. Let me know if you have any questions.

[@Grimexperience62]

This is a great review. I like your sense of humor and you provide a lot of good information unlike some reviewers who keep talking about how folks ride big cruisers like this to compensate for there package size. Hey maybe its true for some folks but i wanted a feel for some of the differences between the 90 and 109 and i got that from this look. Thanks!!

[@tuskegee87]

I'm glad you were able to gain some insight from the video. I try to give a relatively non-bias information on the topics I make videos on. Thanks for watching!

[@EazyE11]

Watup, been riding for under a year and currently have a daytona 675. Never really was interested in cruisers until I saw the 109 and fell in love. I finally was able to sit on one and thought it was more bike than I needed. Then I sat on an m90 and never felt more comfortable in or on any vehicle. I plan on getting the 90 but coming from a 400lb sportbike and loving the handling, speed and agility I really don't know what to expect. The only cruiser ive ridden was the 250 at the msf course.

[@tuskegee87]

The M90 is a little lighter than the 109. It's riding characteristics are similar to the Honda Rebel 250 just heavier. You don't get as much lean angle on cruisers as you do sports bike so you will most likely scrap the pegs the first few times you ride it coming from a sport bike. You'll love it either way.

[@tuskegee87]

Spacecoastz the 109 looked the best and has more power with more response. The selling point for me was the tank shape. The 109 tank was much more slim 5 comfortable against my thigh than the wide M90 tank. It cost more but I'm pleased.

[@michaelnicolle186]

Hey man, nice video, I love the sound of the bike, I am probably 2 weeks from picking mine up, New Grey boss edition. Thanks

[@tuskegee87]

Awesome! You have to let me know how you like your bike. I'm excited for you.

[@michaelnicolle186]

Yeah it is great, big bike, took a little while getting used to cornering with it, confidence.

[@tuskegee87]

I'm glad you like the ride. Enjoy and be safe!

[@Musicmaster908]

I want the c109rt myself. I rode the c90 2 years ago and enjoyed it. It is different going from a sportsbike to a cruiser. I thought the weight difference would bother me but it turned out once I was going I could not feel the difference. Hopefully, I get my new bike soon so I can give the busa some time off and maybe start doing more out of state rides.

[@landelitevacations2527]

18:09 Always look out and use caution when near drivers with the "Washington Football Team" emblems on their cars. I live in the DMV and I can tell you, they are always driving dangerously. No Joke. Nice video by the way.

[@tuskegee87]

Isn't that the truth?! Thanks. I appreciate you watching.

[@tuskegee87]

I think it would suit someone up to 6.5 comfortably it sits low to the ground but the pegs give you some good leg room.

[@thelifeofmatt3229]

besides the camera angle, great video man. keep up the great work

[@tuskegee87]

Thanks for watching! I need to get a new camera mount. Check out some of my other videos as well.

[@577buttfan]

​@@tuskegee87just need a wider field of view point it down a hair and you'll be all right

[@kinnybingman8666]

I'll never sell mine. Bought it in 07 Brand new and it still looks and acts new

[@tuskegee87]

Glad to hear! That's why I like cruisers; they have classic styling.

[@577buttfan]

You never had any transmission problems. I heard the 07 was pretty clunky

[@Yamaha_Bolt]

Do you have the m90 video? Great video

[@tuskegee87]

Thanks! Unfortunately I don't. I didn't think to record until after I rode so I went back and did the 109 and give my review.

[@magnolia2slim]

My old stomping grounds....Fayettenam!!! 1st COSCOM on the other side of Bragg Blvd!!

[@blacironman1]

best bike ever

[@DonBSeleh]

💯

[@brianclark3367]

Any idea how the 109 on someone over 6ft tall?

[@JranEQ]

lol I recognized Skibo soon as the video started.

[@jbserious]

Right!!!

[@WilliamJohnson-bc3wd]

I own one top speed due to safety sensor on transmission is 139.6

[@577buttfan]

Any faster than 12 0 on a cruiser is movin

[@mosesblount1191]

Airborne All the way! 👊

[@RanGer-498]

I had the same issue coming from a sports bike I keep looking for the foot pegs😁

[@eddcain]

🤣 me too! I almost crashed when i test drove one, lol!

[@Grimexperience62]

Is the M109R as easy to maneuver as the M90? As in parking lots and out on the road as well. I do want the M109R. I'm 58 195 ( bodybuilder) all that means is I'm in pretty good shape, not a couch potatoe. Thanks for a great video.

[@tuskegee87]

You should have no problem maneuvering the 109R. For me coming from the 450lb R6 to a 900lb bike you can tell the weight difference under 10mph. Between the M90 and 109R, you can't really tell the difference. You should be able to do a figure 8 without putting your foot down with the 109 in a 26'x15' box (a driveway pretty much). 2/3 of the way through the video I do a U turn in a parking lot near cars and it was easy to maneuver. Hopefully this answers your question.

[@Grimexperience62]

tuskegee87 it really does answer my questions. We get this perception of a bike that's a ball and chain to handle but with the Japanese bikes are always better handling than you anticipate. I'm tired of buying bikes that I really have no intention of keeping long term and I'm ready for the 109r. Thanks a lot , you have a lot of class and you got back to me quick. Thanks so much.

[@tuskegee87]

@@Grimexperience62 this is very true, one of the reasons why I wanted to do a review on this bike. If you're looking long term, I would say the 109R is it unless you find a Yamaha Raider their about the same in power, but the raider is a little lighter. I appreciate you taking time to review the video. Let me know if you have any other questions. "Stay vertical"

[@paulkmaster3231]

Nice video! Liked your comment on tank mounted speedo not a big deal like some many say. I'm a cruiser and sportbike and sport touring rider. Need to have at least 2 bikes sport and cruiser lol. I owned a m109r telling you that "9" has baffles drilled out which makes it sound nice but not too loud. Ck out my channel Paulk master for m109r Buell vfr Cbr etc... Vids I'll ck yours out thanks!!!!

[@TheFillyFill]

Traded my r6 for the m90. Never looked back lol

[@Grimexperience62]

Sometimes big torquey and comfortable is cool, m90 looks awsome too. I think i'm going in that direction.

[@TheFillyFill]

yea for sure lol. The M90 will crush anything on wheels up to about 70 mph lol

[@tuskegee87]

Once I can afford it, I'm getting it!

[@ruggedrider7]

Is the m90 just as loud as the m109?

[@tuskegee87]

With the stock mufflers they're about the same. 109 being just a little deeper. With the mufflers off you can tell the difference.

[@evil03mustang08]

My 90 is loud AF

[@577buttfan]

I think the m109 would have a deeper pitch but it all depends on the pipes how loud they are an M50 is loud with straight pipes

[@senecamcmillian]

Nice video bruh!

[@j.e.p2718]

How about the brakes, do you notice a difference?

[@tuskegee87]

From what I remember, they're the same brake set up. I didn't really notice a difference. They're almost the same the plus minus 100 pounds

[@johncain2872]

subtitles?
