as good as a rider he is, he just cant wheelie let's say that 😂

[@CynHicks]

Well, recklessness to self wouldn't be in line with scripture. Wheelies can be needlessly dangerous. If you're really good at it then probably not, especially on a bike you're very familiar with. Basically, I'm saying practicing is where the danger is. I'm not a rider and I don't know if this is the case for him. Just putting a possible reason as to why he lacks that skill. I'm an older guy that grew up around bikes. My dad was an avid rider but my uncle almost lost his life having to lay down his bike after a truck pulled out in front of him. In my family that made some of us weary. Including my uncle (a life long mechanic) who basically gave it up and put his attention into muscle cars. I'm interested in starting at the "old" age of 44 and if I do I can say with certainty I will learn very slowly and probably never intentionally wheelie. However, the thought of unintentionally coming up off the pavement scares me and makes me think I'll have to practice just enough to keep me safe.

Had an FZ09 (same engine) and it was hard NOT to wheelie in the first 2 gears, and in full acceleration in 4th gear just a little bump in the road was enough to lift the front a bit. Super agile. The only downside was that it constantly begs you to do stuff you shoudln't be doing if your license has any value to you.

[@ProfessorCastle]

Yep that's how my xsr 900 was. It begged to go faster. Got the death wobble once in a corner at around 130. I ended up selling it because I have a son and he wants me to stick around. The xsr won't let you wheelie unless you turn off the traction control. You do that and it's coming up with too much throttle.

Bikes like this are the most fun to ride. I've owned over 20 bikes from 125 up to a busa. One thing that is a fact for me was the sv 650 pointy I rode into old age and eventual death was the most fun I've ever had on any bike ever. The sv is so forgiving it convinces you your Valentino Rossi. I've drifted the sv into turns had it sideways on purpose and by accident but it always helped me get back control without a catastrophe. They weren't joking when they said it's a perfect beginner into a bigger bike. I ride in London uk so streets are small and full of obsticles so that low down power and flickable handling are perfect. Aside from that naked bikes are no1. You feel the speed better and are more aware of what your doing because as the speed goes up you have to hang on harder. My last bit is start on a dirt bike as it will teach you lessons that you will come through to tell the tale. If I got straight on a busa I would prob be dead now. Respect the road and only open her up when the roads clear and there's no side roads!!! That rule has kept me safe. X

[@thetruthbehindthecurtain8015]

I had a 2018 MT-09, flashed, and the best way I can describe is that all of its power is found within "zero-to-just-above-highway-speed-limit" range. In other words, they're super quick from 0 to about 90-ish, but then it abruptly flattens out. So you feel like king of the road in 90% of commuter situations. And on a track with lots of twists, still fast and fun. But once you hit a straightaway and you approach 80 or so mph, you can feel it starting to flatten, and 90+ is where all the real sportbikes fly past you.

My opinion: love my XSR900 but too much power for a naked.

[@thomaspfaff8723]

Nice, but what’s the difference just because it doesn’t have fairings that too much power ???

[@feroast1]

@@thomaspfaff8723 The XSR900 puts over 100hp to the ground around mid-9k rpm, with peak torque around 8.5k. I never timed how long it took me to accelerate to over 100mph but its quick. Without the fairing providing some aerodynamic benefit, a rider will literally blow off the bike unless they're glued flat to the tank. It's certainly ridable but most naked sport bikes or standards are powered for a more casual and manageable ride. The same bike with 70-80hp is just as fun. Having said all that, I bought mine BECAUSE it has over 100hp at the rear wheel (along with great electronics and brakes), though I rarely ride in A-mode and it's still a fun bike.

The engine and transmission are a jewel. Got to give Yamaha a big thumbs up for all the FZ/MT/XSR series of motorcycles.

[@johnhenry6797]

Do you have to put the settings back they way you want them every time you turn it off and then on again

[@OKstang77]

Bike sounds amazing. Reminds me of my FZ1, which I miss a lot.

[@primokona]

Lol.. Im looking for an 2007-09 FZ1.. Love the blue-gold look and cant wait to get it

[@Scowguy]

Except the FZ1 was 145 hp. I had an ‘01 and it was a great bike. My son owns it now and it’s still a great bike.

[@daithilacha1]

@@Scowguy Different models. First gen bike had detuned original R1 engine with carbs and later model used 2004 R1 motor in a detuned state, which did not work out well. It used FI too and in its early days had very snatchy on or of off throttle response. Horrible. I owned three first Gens and they have a much nicer motor with far better torque in the lower ranges. They respond extremely well to a good quality after exhaust combined with a good jet kit like Ivans or Performance pro. I still have a last edition 2005 in gorgeous dark red and black combo ( Not sold in the US ), and properly tricked up.

8:27 wonder what the dude in the other car was thinking

[@rescuedmx3717]

Great overview of the Yame!! Makes me wanna go out and buy one! And the words of wisdom were the BEST PART brother! 👊🏼💪🏼

[@adamdeste7376]

What happened to Yamaha virago ? I just saved enough to finally afford one, now they seem to be off the markets world wide.

[@Br0adCastYourS3lf]

From 10:24 in, what are the black lines on the road? "Great" way to induce a seizure.

[@nealm2562]

I like the format change! A bit more walk around, words of wisdom big and bold! I watch these even if I'm not necessarily interested in owning the bike...

[@Jb-of8tl]

Neal Mayborn ur not alone, i like the videos even though i don’t have any intention of even owning a bike

[@jeffreyhurst9552]

I love the Yamaha 900s. I prefer the looks of the MT-09 though. Ride safe.

[@Tom_Hadler]

Looks amazing. I like the rear indicator and brake light set up too. Of course with no number plate it's gonna look great.

[@murderdoggg]

How would you compare the ride with a Buell XB9 or XB12? They have similar weight and wheelbase.

[@federicogrilli9289]

does the Bike come with that integrated lighting system? or is it aftermarket?

[@garyjohnson1970]

I'm old, it looks great!

[@ridingwithsam]

You can hear the fuelling is all off with that exhaust

[@Niko-bf7nw]

sounds lik ed a rotary car engine

[@nicholstop8161]

You gotta get a tuner when you do an exhaust on any dirtbike or streetbike or Harley or it fucks with your air fuel ratio. If he had a full system plus a tuner on that bike he’d prob be over 120 hp easy

[@kriscraig5513]

Man I love your test ride videos. I’ll be buying a bike from y’all very soon

[@Srkcycles]

awesome thanks

[@stevebrzosko9793]

How does this compare to the Kawasaki Z900 RS? I rented one for 3 days and fell in love with the light crisp handling and raw power.

[@gonietubenyc5741]

I put 6,000 miles on my Harley Davidson Iron 883 am I intermediate - Pro (experienced) ie I want to get an R1 or gsx-r 750 is that a to big of a leap should I start smaller like r6

[@reecetaylor9518]

"It's can wheelie easily, I'll just show you" I'm waiting......

[@PlanarianCherald]

pretty sure he had traction on the whole time not realizing it kills wheelies before they even start lol

[@UncleDon226]

@@PlanarianCherald He def did have traction control on. You can see the light flashing like crazy whenever the front wheel starts to pick up.

[@Kasperblk]

I recently purchased an XSR900, it's a hoot.

[@timellis4214]

Thinking of getting one too. What do you think to it so far?

[@fogfestival]

@@timellis4214 Had one for a while now, and it's still fun. Maybe a bit silent with the stock exhaust, and it might have been good to have a little bit more underseat storage, bit this thing rides like crazy

[@frankbaumann8392]

So have I. Amazing engine, good build quality, popped a power wheelie on the test ride. Love it. Also, in B mode it's docile enough if you have some common sense and experience. It can cruise all day if you want it to, and still be an absolute blast to hoon around. Only major downside is the stock seat, that I swapped for Yamaha's ultra suede seat which is a lot more comfortable.

[@Kasperblk]

@@timellis4214 I agree with some of the other comments. It's super fun, power is manageable but it will wheelie if you want it too. The stock exhaust is dead silent. My riding buddies joke that it sounds like kitten's. Lol It does have some grunt in the sound but the stock exhaust definitely needs changed. Other than that it's a good bike overall. I picked up new old stock one for pretty cheap about $2500 less than sticker.

[@djpingu78]

I've had one a couple years. Great engine and looks, get new pipe. Only negative is fuelling a bit jumpy around town at slow speeds

[@PauloMatias]

Sean can you do a video on the 2019 Husqvarna 701? I'm considering selling my Harley and buying one.

[@Srkcycles]

great idea i cant try to arrange that, those bikes look like a blast to ride

[@cribs4551]

Paulo Matias Do it!!!

[@code23hyper44]

790 duke as well

[@bung0o]

Is there a lower cc version of this bike or one recommended for starters?

[@Nyoll758]

Xsr700

[@rd998lc]

hi which bike do you prefer as a fun bike xsr 900 vs gsx s 1000

[@Nithink_Tank]

Liked it for the words of wisdom, and of course the fantastic review. Cheers

[@kalilinux8182]

Mate would you put this above an fz1?

[@hupipanmei264]

I love how you stick to the words of wisdom. God bless

[@dthompsont3796]

I have an fz07 and I love this bikes looks. Probably gonna be my upgrade later on.

[@olivierorossi4141]

same here

[@kevinraabe457]

I just picked up a 2020 with 10K on the clock as a "fun bike" supplementing my RT1200 . Its a great little motorbike with a shit ton of torque!!

[@colinbreckman1090]

What tail light, rear signal assembly is that, I hate the stock one on my 2020

[@jonrandolph33]

I love the the format of your videos keep up the good work!!!

[@Knox-umbra]

I appreciate the scale of "baby" to "Gandalf"

[@jaydeepdarandale]

Whats his height?

[@KutWrite]

On this bike... "You shall not pass!"

[@mkruge9076]

I loved that you started the ride with words from Jesus. JIL. Psalm 82.

[@johnkeyton8164]

So it doesn’t wheelie? And it’s not twitchy? Maybe there was something wrong with the throttle.

[@nuhalashwal9446]

Any recommendations how and what to do if you want to LOWER the XSR 700??? Please I need help desperately
