Hey Yammie, I'm 5'10 and I have persuaded my parents to let me move from dirtbikes to sports-bikes. I haven't ridden my dirtbike in about 3 years because of no-lifeing CSGO and I want to get back into riding but I SERIOUSLY want a sports bike. Which beginner bike do you recommend I should buy? I was thinking a Kawasaki 400 ABS; what do you think?

You just about hit the nail on the head when it comes to the fact we ascribe meaning to objects. Here's why I'm attached to mine. My father owned 2 BMW S1000RR bikes, one for the road and one for the track. Back in 2011 he was at a track day at Barber Motorsports Park when, entering the corner that the museum overlooks, he had a stroke at 138 mph. He was a fit and muscular dude so he survived the initial trauma. He however succumbed to his injuries about a month later. I was left with his road going S1000 as the track bike was totaled beyond repair. Back then I was scared of the 600 I tried to ride earlier that year. But I knew I was never going to get rid of my dad's bike. I didn't build up the nerve to ride the BMW until 5 years later. That whole time it stayed in our garage with 1500 miles on it, untouched. The nerve came about after we took it to a dealership to get the fuel lines and a bunch of other stuff replaced. That was when the service manager, same person who helped my father out getting his track bike ready, told me that I either had to ride it or sell it. As it would just fall apart if I let it sit for any longer. Since then I've logged 15K additional miles on the bike that I've affectionately named Spitfire. She's taken me to many places and events since I started riding, and I've met so many new friends along the way. The connection I have to this piece of machinery is a strong one. Even if it breaks down and can no longer function, it's turning into a museum piece in my home lol. Having something that my father was the original owner of, and being able to take care of it myself, is something I will always cherish. Little note about the bike as well. After my father's accident, we had the original stock fairings from his track bike installed on his street bike I ride today. My bike means alot to me lol.

He's philosophic about it because he doesn't own one. He rode one once, and I encourage you to watch that video as you'd be hard pressed to think it was the same person. "JEEEZUS CHRIST.....

In that video he was about to spooge the contents of his "hairy plumbs" all over the gas tank such was his excitement and disbelief at how fun the bike was to ride. kzbin.info/www/bejne/hZTIpWiYnsmDq7s Now he probable moved to California and ride a moped, he forgot about all that...

[@marchuber9626]

I own a 2014 BMW S1000R. While it's not exactly the same bike, I adore it! I would compare it more to a sniper rifle then to a soulless machine. Something that's very reliable and precise, you know what to expect every time you get on it. For me it's the ultimate combination of power, looks, reliability and support/comfort (electronics, suspension, handlebar heaters, riding modes etc.). What's left to say: Good work on experimenting with new projects Yammie! Keep it up! Cheers from Switzerland

[@rewmeister]

I have a '17 S1KR...not sure why everyone who doesn't own says it's soulless or just another in line 4 "screamer" engine like it supposed to be something negative. There's something to be said about a machine people criticize for being being too good....and I find it quite rowdy and exciting when you want (aka wheelies all day) or if you use another mode you can ride like a cruiser with the dynamic suspension.

[@BernardSolomon]

Reliable? Agree with the soulless part. Every bike has a soul.

[@rewmeister]

@@BernardSolomon they are reliable. I've put 6.5k miles on mine in 4 months, no issues. You change the oil every 6k miles as well. Low maintenance and awesome. And the rider puts the soul into the bike same with everything else in life. I feel bad for those people

6.5k miles on an in-line 4 cylinder and no issues? WOAH what a suprise! bike costs around 20.000€ and has no issues in the first 6000 miles lmfao, any other bike costing one third of this has the same reliability. Doesnt mean its reliable either, I think you can judge that if your bike stands 60.000 miles with no issues at all.

[@Mbee16]

Wow bro, such a clinically, cinematic and NON SARCASTIC piece. Keep up the fantastic quality!

[@cameronleslie1595]

To be honest, the reason I like the S1000RR is exactly because it's soulless, it's not got the history of the GSXR and the looks of the Fireblade, it's a motorbike that's there to be a motorbike, it does exactly what it was designed to do and nothing more, It really reflects the German way of approaching things, summed up quickly as "get it done in the most efficient and effective way possible" (Not to mention that I definitely think it looks the best of all the 1000cc superbikes at the moment)

[@markoajduk7096]

It looks nicer than fireblade you could say v4 or smth.....

[@Vethursan1]

Totally agree

[@Brianbaker3]

I’ve had mine for 2 years and I can honestly say it’s the ultimate riding machine. Incredible power, top notch brakes, screaming exhaust note, buttery power delivery, great super sport riding position, top tier electronics, extremely agile and pliable suspension..If soulless means it does exactly what you want it to do and it begs for more, then yeah it’s “soulless” and i love it.

[@ianjames4849]

I totally agree. I don't get why people bich about the looks or asymmetrical headlights. I think its looks aggressive and predatory. I honestly hate the factory colors/ color schemes that come with it though... A good fairing set/ paint job and the S1000rr looks insane!

[@joat1979]

I have a 2015 S1000RR and I love it. After years or Harleys and other Cruisers, I decided to try sport bikes. The Ninja 1000 i had my eyes on sold a week before I got home, so I looked through their inventory again and saw an all black S1000RR. My last bike being a 2008 Harley Crossbones, which was mostly blacked out except for the chrome spring up front, it caught my eye as the bike I needed. I was actually scared to take a sport bike out for the first time, as I have heard horror stories and also the day I bought it, it was raining a bit. Before I rode it off the lot (and I did, I just left my car there for 2 days, haha) they told me to put it in rain mode as it will be a lot more forgiving. But i did fall in love with it. Being a bit older I worried about my knees being crouched up all the time, but i find i have fewer back issues on a sport bike than on a cruise. Since then, I bought a 2000 Ducati 900 supersport. It is also beautiful, but more for the sounds. It has that L-Twin and a dry clutch that rattles. I love both my bikes.

[@bedpangamer6301]

Congrats man on being brave enough to change

[@MrTrialgod]

I actually switched from a Ninja 1000 (if you not confuse it with the ZX-10R), which is called Z1000SX in Europe to a 2017 S1000RR. Although the Kawa was a really nice bike, it was way to boring for me. The engine was really good, but the sound was.. meh. It really felt weighty arround corners and stuff, so I finally decided to go for the BMW. And oh my god was that one of the best decisions I made in my life. This bike is so absolutely fantastic in every way. When you drive it normally and the engine screams at you: "FASTER! HIGHER REV! GO, GO, GO!", especially since the SC Project S1 Slip On is mounted. And when you finally close the throttle it thanks you with some slight backfire. Man I love this thing. I will never get how THAT can be clicinal it all. For me it is pure emotion driving that thing. I'm totally looking forward to go on the race track next year.

The whole inline 4 is soulless argument is kinda BS. It just has a different character but has just been over done.

Funny thing is the Yamaha R1 crossplane inline sounds exactly like a v4 (same firing order)

You should go back and watch your original review. This bike blew you away. Your problem is you can't find any faults with this bike, and for some reason that bothers you. Maybe it's because the skill level required to ride this bike at 100% is light years beyond your racing skill set. But this is not really a road bike, it's a race bike that had the bits added to make it road legal.

I ride a 2017 S1000RR. I’ve been riding her “intimate object” for a little over a year. I tend to leave my bikes stock for the first year before making any serious modifications. Smaller items like tires, brakes, etc are changed to fine tune the bike to my personal specifications. Power adders are done in the second year after I have acquired a comfort level and some seat time with the bike. I currently have ~16k on the bike, with a few hotdog moments, a couples of track days and now I feel comfortable enough to start making modifications. First I will put the bike on the Dyno to see what I am working with from the factory. After that I will install a full exhaust and remapping with a professional tune. I basically follow this process with every bike that I have ever owned. My 2015 ZX14R, was no different. I enjoyed your video and I believe that you have to own and ride an S1000RR for at the very least six months, then make another video about the type of “soul” or feeling that riding this type of machine on a daily basis can generate. I personally own 10 bikes, from a 1076 KZ900 to a 1991 GL 1500. A 1989 GSXR 1100 and a couple of TX650 Yamaha twins. I usually have a minimum of 4 bikes insured and plated because I ride for specific feelings or needs. Right this moment my S1KRR is my daily personal favorite, but I am pretty fickle when it comes to machines. For now this one gets to spend the cold Michigan winters in the living room. Totally understand the pre-ownership feeling, as I frequently got my a$$ handed to me by this kid at work on his highly modified 2015 S1KRR at the race track. So I bought one as a gift to myself for my 57th bday. Sadly I am already thinking about the new rendition of the S1000RR. To me personally being able to program the suspension, and hp to suit the situation is one of the LOVE items that puts this bike in the house for the winter. Thanks!

Honestly I can say that Yammie is my favorite KZbinr. No one puts this amount of effort into a 10ish minute video. It isn't purely entertaining for the brain dead masses and it isn't straight monochromatic information transferred in the most efficient way possible. This is truly information being passed on in it's purest form, interest. You can tell that the creator is interested in what they are talking about when it is interesting to watch and listen to them talking about it and both parties are benefiting because of it. The long and short of it is, Yammie is my favorite because he cares and isn't just doing it to get another video up. He has an interest that he knows can be shared and benefit all parties involved. Thanks Yammie Noob!

I agree with you 100%. I think material attachment often leads to stress because of concerns about maintenance, depreciation, damage, repair, keeping up with the Joneses, etc... But riding and caring for a bike can give you experiences that you can't get anywhere else. I rode an S1000RR once and it left me kind of cold too... even though I was on a track. It was too perfect maybe? It was hard to spot any flaws. Even the deliberate attempt at introducing imperfection by installing asymmetrical headlights really only makes it more perfect.

Any "properly made" beginner/ general sport bikes you would recommend?

Yet you're commenting on his video......

[@Admiral_Riven]

I love this video. I am attached to my S1000RR. I come from car culture and my first sports car that I dropped dough into was an E46 M3, it was my dream car and I loved it. I loved BMW. When I started getting into the sports bike scene I was naturally drawn to BMW and my S1000RR was my second bike ever. It intimated but excited me to have one of if not the best liter bike. It was the first bike I did my own work and modifications to. It came into my life during a dark Era where I genuinely was struggling with severe depression and suicidal thoughts, and it helped pull me out of that and introduced me to some amazing friends who I can count on for anything. I love my S1000RR and if she ever gives out on me, I will take a memento from her.

And then Kawasaki came out with the H2R and roffol stomped the entire market

[@p0s3s3sD]

Not really the Kawasaki h2r is totally different class bike. Also the h2s lap times don't get close to the ones of the BMW

@@pickles4412 well English is only my fourth language so no I didn't learn it in grade school. And you didn't say anything about waffles? Neither did you refer to the zx-10 you referred to an the H2r which isn't even street legal also it is a turbo bike. And also why do you have to get so defensive? I simply pointed out some facts. Mainly the fact that Kawasaki did not stomp the market with the H2R

[@pickles4412]

@@p0s3s3sD Kawasaki did Stomp the market with the H2 it won Pirelli bike of the year when it launched in 2015 because it was the first production supercharged motorcycle and yeah they h2r is not street legal they did that on purpose that's what the r stands for stands for racing it's a track bike that's what it does. It was designed to do that's what it does well

[@marcus4619]

For me, as an engineer, perfection of engineering is what i look for. I love this bike and how perfect it is. To me meaning comes from my perspective and no one else’s. So for me the bike is alive with the people who built it.

The s1000rr is my dream bike didn’t really like the look of it at first but it 💯 grown on me

[@sergeyakinin997]

Hmm... I think the cold unrelenting efficiency of the S1000RR fits the superbike ideal perfectly. It would be in the top 3 liter bike considerations if I were looking for one - the other two being the R1 and Panigale.

[@kiettomo87]

I own a s1000rr and it currently on 30k miles of usage. There’s nothing wrong with it.

You called the GTR soulless and said it was only made to destroy lap times? A better comparison for the S1000RR would be a 911 GT2 RS

Came here for another list video, got completely blown away by the amazing bike philosophy lecture. Amazing video hooman

[@UnknownEntity334]

Im a psychologist and i have studied materialism and love motorcycles. I loved this video, you should make more of these, they are the essence of why we do this- yet never spoken about. I also thought the same abt sr1000rr.. looks awesome but just doesnt make my blood rush and feels boring or empty.. feels like a car

[@gustavmeyrink_2.0]

'Soulless' is merely another way of saying 'lacking in faults'

[@vpweber]

I must say that this is one of your finest philosophical moments ever. It's not about the horse, is it.

[@Fern_aves]

this is really wonderful it makes me feel like all those people in my life telling me not to ride a motorcycle don't seem to understand why i would want to, this video gives a really wonderful perspective one that i relate to a lot, thank you.

Early this year I didn't own a motorcycle and I watched a lot of Yammie Noob. After a year of owning and riding a motorcycle and re-watching Yammie Noob his videos seem like that 8-page essay you have due in 3 hours so you just put a bunch of words to fill the pages.

[@bedpangamer6301]

I appreciate your philosophical view of aesthetics but the S1000rr is a mechanical work of art. I have one so I know.

[@iodineclip]

this is why knowing what you want is important. and this is why most riders have more than 1 bikes. one for races and laptimes, and one for daily riding and commute. sometimes, the things we like is not necessarily the best in anything, but we just like the way it makes us feel. some loves perfection, and some find enjoyments in the flaws.
