I don't know why it makes me so happy to hear your praise on the bike I own but I've been enjoying mine for the last 15 months. Glad to see your perspective matches my experience.

25:37 You can also twist the throttle forward, past the natural resting point, to disengage the cruize control

Been riding for about 6 months and my first bike was a 01 shadow. I am so glad I did something like that to learn and practice. I just picked up an XSR900 yesterday. Tons of power, tons of fun and it feels so easy to ride. I am so glad I progressed through my bikes the way I did. Absolutely love the XSR.
-
Your first XSR review convinced me to buy one & I LOVE IT. Wicked fun bike.
-
The bike is great, I gotta get back in the saddle. Life isn't the same without my second gen 650 :(. Been loving your content for a while now bro. Your what the community needs in the way of motorcycle content. Thanks for making it fun!
-
I have been riding for 20 years and have had several motorcycles from cruisers to super sport and this is by far my favorite to own. This bike also gets more attention than anything else I have owned.
-
Rode one the other week, with that exact color. really looks nice in person. it's a forever bike.
-
Such a perfect package, owned this bike for 5 months and am so in love with it
-
STOKED about this one. I bought wifi on the plane just to purchase some stuff and get into this. rented this bike in Arizona and convinced me to WANT to get back into riding.
-
Iβve had mine for bout a couple of months and love it π«Ά
-
Upgraded to this from a ninja 400. Wow is all i can say. I love them first gear power wheelies.
-
Took mine to the track this year. was an Absolut blast, gonna go again next year when the season starts again :D
-
Love this channel! Sold the Goldwing and ordered a XSR 900 for next month. Yeah, Michigan might have snow in a bit, but who can wait?! Papa Yams! You are the Motorcycle Big Daddy!ππ» Thanks Papa!
-
Waiting for the GP.... That thing is just drop dead gorgeous!
-
The MTs are a great family of bikes but it is special how the Heritage family take the MT platform and add a certain element of life to them that I can't quite out my finger on. It is nice that the Heritage family has started getting small displacement bikes great stuff oh yea love the review too.ππππ

Your commitment is unmatched! π― β¦ "Dream big and dare to fail."

I got one too. Just hit Estes park. What a blast!!!
-
I bought an original red 2014 FZ-09. List was $6,999. I paid $6,499. Best value ever at that time. And the lack of βrefinementβ was never noticed in the midst of roarty three cylinder fun. I blitzed mountain roads, toured on it, all with unlimited fun! I traded it for a Z-H2 in 2020 and got $4,900 on trade!
-
Anyone looking for a smaller more sporty XJR should look no further. The MTs are great but the XSR is just a beast!
