Sportbikes suck Yammie Not everyone likes or wants sheets and yards of plastic and high strung, high RPM peg scraping cringe inspiring bright coloredbrloud bikes with idiotic riders pulling wheelies and cutting lanes at way to fast of speedsbr No Yammie, sportbike riders are nerds

this is the kind of opinion someone has when they've taken the vaccine and don't have a girlfriend
Comment from : @hellionFear

I’d say check out the BMW F800gt Not too sporty with a parallel twin but it looks the part, can go about 250ish miles on a tank and has all the bmw goodies at fraction of cost of the R1200RT or the K1600
Comment from : @poltergeist3194

Come on! What a bullshit 😂The riding position is completely different with sport bikes and sport touring bikes Sportbike doesn’t fit for touring at all If you do touring with it you will eventually have back and wrist problems Sport touring is the best choice if you want to enjoy both worlds And to me the only reasonsble choice, i have had cruisers and sportsbikes enough to know this

Ahhh, young buck 40 plus years of riding, here 61 years old The benefits of sport tourers present themselves when your old eyes still see what your young eyes used to but you now rely on momentum to propel yourself out of that lazy boy chair My Concours 14 appreciates my reasonable demands and I appreciate its superb everything except weight loss attempts Just like my own In 20 or 25 years, you’ll see :-)

BMW R1250RT rules!

The new Goldwing is awesome I’m planning on getting one for longer roadtrips
Comment from : @ljtowers5161

As someone looking at sport tourers… this video didn’t make a good case for anything other than a sport tourer
Comment from : @MLeago

A little contradictory as some of your videos tell us to buy sport tourers over adv bikes and get a dual sport to compliment it 😵‍💫 CONFUSING
Comment from : @bencluroe4183

Lol, what an absolute Joke of an argument against comfortable fully faired tourers that handle just fine for their weight Its like "Look into my eyes and repeat after me" brainwashing nonsense Sorry
Comment from : @multihull40

Sport Tourers aren’t as dorky as “Adventure” bikes
Comment from : @kjmdrumz3

😆😆😆😆 "all day riding we regularly do over 150 miles on our weekend rides" (8:30) thats really funny!!
Comment from : @jacqueswolfaardt5481

s1000xr?
Comment from : @S1kkkXR

This hasn't aged well Yammie I bought a naked based on this advice and added puig touring screen and shad panniers (face palm) and the wind is killer on long rides man you need an updated version of this video with the tiger 660/800 and the tracers etc also, no one in their right mind should ever buy a ktm or aprillia or the like, terrible investment Reliability needs to be a major factor especially when touring
Comment from : @dwanies

Lol, this video makes no sense "You don't want a sport touring bike like a concours 14, but you want a sporty comfortable bike that you can't have a pillion or any luggage on" Yeah, that makes sense One of the most important reasons we love sport touring bikes is because of passenger comfort and because of huge luggage opportunities, and plenty of power to push everything around And I wouldn't take an ADV bike off road unless it had off road tires on it Sport touring bikes is a perfect option for someone who doesn't want to ride a cruiser bagger Also we don't buy sport touring bikes to daily commute, even though it's not a problem either The weight plays little to no difference
Comment from : @isoundss7140

Stupid video
Comment from : @tombrockhoff3081

Can't stand the expensive adventure bikes Too top heavy Expensive Too weighty for off road If you love em, that's fine But I love the slip streaming missile sensation, tucked down, munching miles
Comment from : @directorstu

Sport towing bikes are great, wind protection, all day riding, especially when it’s cold or wet more enclosed protecting the rider driver than adventure bike is unless it’s a GSA of any other adventure bike The wind is gonna get you so is the water
Comment from : @billboring3925

Most will DISAGREE with your assessment SPORT Tourers are absolutely FANTASTIC bikes You get the looks of a sport bike and it hauls ass when you want it to Not to mention the comfortability that us older riders enjoy I don't have the nagging back ache after just 2 hours of riding on my Suzuki GSXS1000 I can go all day on her and not feel a thing with it's upright position Sport tourers are here to stay because there is a huge market for them with older riders that still want that sport bike feel and looks and we can also afford them
Comment from : @Gexxon

FJRs handle the dirt roads aswell I road around Australia to run mine in I encountered lots of road works and the bike just lapped it up I had to continuely tell myself that I not on a dirt bike 130khs fully loaded Easily one of the best motorcycle's ever, go for it

You've discredited yourself with this video

Why This Guy's Opinion SUCKS here's why-brHe only rides sport bikes
Comment from : @MauriceMotoMan

Or some of use commit 30-35000 miles a year and want something comfortable but can have some bit of fun
Comment from : @youtubecensorshipsucks6779

Not worth listening to, a total waste of time
Comment from : @mtbengel

Id take a ktm duke 1390 gt
Comment from : @ericjudd9603

What about BMW 1250 RS? brI think the video should consists motorcycles for 2up It is the factor which changes everything!
Comment from : @2urbi9

More than half of the video is about other options by a harley guy big yawn
Comment from : @jacobrosario9735

You never talked about the honda st1300 Used they are a bargain, who doesnt want to go on a proper road trip in comfort Disappointed
Comment from : @jacobrosario9735

as someone who has a bad back and old, I appreciate that sport touring bikes exists it has the look of a sport bike (well somewhat) yet is comfortable to ride so that is a plus in my book 😁 adv bikes are just not it in terms of looks for me, but to each it's own
Comment from : @BLAKEEATS1988

Can anyone recommend a YouTube video produced by someone who knows what a Sports Touring motorbike is and actually likes them?
Comment from : @undercrackers56

ADV bikes suck Turbulent airflow behind the windshield is just terribly annoying Go naked or moderate sportbike and keep your helmet out of turbulent air
Comment from : @thomaslenz8645

The Aprilia 660 is not comfortable for touring 150miles is NOT long distance touring Horses for courses
Comment from : @timothyherweynen6210

I have to disagree, my ST 1300 eats up the miles and curves in comfort and providers enough storage space to bring camping gear for a week I'm a bigger guy and barely fit on most bikes under 1000 cc
Comment from : @MikeBrownRehobothBeach

What a very bad and incomplete analysisthis really sucks
Comment from : @toineleuverink9905

Alas for the inseam challenged the choices are even less! Adventure bikes are way out of the question
Comment from : @davhuf3496

Alright I’ve read the thumbnail You have attacked and offended the fibre of my being Now I will watch the video as you defend yourself
Comment from : @lukeorlando4814

I guy who brags about a 150 mile daylol, yeah, he doesn't get it at allwhat a noob
Comment from : @raynic1173

I like Yammie but this vid should be titled, "Why Sport Touring Bikes Suck for Millennials So Here Are Some Bikes You Can Ghetto-Mod Into a Squid Tour Bike" 🙃

Sport Touring Bikes Rock! Naysayers Suck!
Comment from : @stephc4427

Lol hardly an angry Dad, just a 60 year old man who is able to enjoy all sorts of bikes but who doesn't have the money for a 'stupidly priced' bike (around $20,000) I would rather spend that kind of money on a vacation and give some to my 3 kids There are so many great used bikes out there I have a 2000 Zx6R for everyday riding that can still keep up with most of the squids and a 08 VFR for long distance touring 500 miles in a day is no problem for that bike and it can hold it's own in the twisties To each their own, but I am just happy to see younger riders as it seems like there are less bikes being ridden by them Price point and affordability is much more important than what you ride I never paid more than $4000 for a pristine used bike!
Comment from : @AlastairPalmer-e3h

You’re right, it was hard to sit through this short story long, but I made it, and I think you’re very very wrong You’ll understand someday
Comment from : @travisfischer2607

my CBR1100XX is bad ? :D how?
Comment from : @Kor200SX

The only answer to all YammieNoob videos is the ZX14, it is the only bike you'll ever need for anything !brIf you put some offroad tires on it would be the best in the adventure bike category to ! 😁
Comment from : @MrSpeedFrk

How does yammie sound more like a teenager now? Lmfao
Comment from : @MEDIUMHOMIE

Yet you don't even mention the 2 golden child's Gsx s1000gt and kawasaki 1000sx both affordable and do everything!!
Comment from : @John-ti7ye

Can’t wait to get the fjr Looked at the k1600 and they seemed to be troublesome from what I read I have a fj09 now and it’s good but it sure is a busy engine at 85mph
Comment from : @Jp1970-pw1ld

Touring cycles don't suck they're gearing sucks you can alleviate this by reducing the size of the rear drive plate by reducing its diameter you get more speed even though you are getting less torque you're not pulling your house you don't need 5,000 lb of torque turn some of that torque in the movement
Comment from : @NA-oq4ty

150 miles? That's just a warm upbrbrBTW, look back to the K1300GT I've ridden them coast to coast, and removed all the baggage to play with the sport bikes
Comment from : @itmike23662

tis video made no sense, but to sum up - sport touring bikes are heavy
Comment from : @giamademedoit

So what you’re recommending instead is a 2 wheeled equivalent of a SUV, over the equivalent of a comfortable 2 or 4 door car Neither of which will ever go off road, oh, and you said they are too big to go off road anyway So what exactly is your point?
Comment from : @simonlangmead7

my FJR 1300 is for me perfect its 2002 year and has 60,000 miles a real tourer with shaft drive and windshield electronics
Comment from : @solidsnake3861

I think ktm 1290 super duke gt and bmw s1000xr is a good choice
Comment from : @Baranyai_Zsolt

what about a ducati streetfighter v4 professionally dialing in the suspension for the rider's weight with 20mm handle bar risers? hehe ;)
Comment from : @pennfootball71

KAWASAKI Z1000SX !!!!!
Comment from : @chessgains8075

Thought this was good to be informative, but I was wrong Just some guy who wants to stir s#!t up for his own gain brTotally false information in this video
Comment from : @Aaronschannel-dr2qg

Is the BMW R1200RS not available in the US?brbrIt's comfy af and pretty fast too
Comment from : @mrfantastic6693

The Hayabusa is not a sport touring bike if it doesn't have factory hard bags it's not it's a sport bike
Comment from : @simonapeters4372

The only Aprilia I would want is the futura a true sport touring bike factory luggage
Comment from : @simonapeters4372

If it doesn't have travel boxes on it it's not a sport touring bike
Comment from : @simonapeters4372

I have sport touring motorcycles I love them you're mistaken 4 sport touring motorcycles concours 14 157 horsepower BMWs 99 r1100 RT BMW K1200RS 130 horsepower the insurance is way cheaper on a sport touring bike
Comment from : @simonapeters4372

Idiots talking out their ass for content, how can you also not mention the most obvious sport tourers out there like Kawasaki 1000sx and Suzuki gsx1000gt but you recommend the aprilia 660 which is hardly a tourer because it’s a giveaway bike
Comment from : @MarvFitBikesKicks

I have a 2011 sprint GT 1050, super fun bike, but I'll take my ADV over it, all day, for touring
Comment from : @BrentonCarr

As an aging Harley rider looking for a lighter bike, I find it amusing when you complain about the weight of the R1250RT and the FJR1300 I guess it's all about what a rider is used to
Comment from : @kittycorner8526

FJR is the best
Comment from : @mattbrewer9487

I own a piece of crap xj600s and I have no clue what he is talking about Sport touring bikes are probably best of both worlds
Comment from : @AlexPtc89

This video is simply ridiculous Are you a biker? Truly?
Comment from : @cristianobriarava2790

Maxi Scooter will beat all this for purpose of touring and comfort
Comment from : @junarcinas8633

Sport touring bikes are great for old, fat, tall, 2 up , bad back, or folks that want all the power, some of the handling, and a bike they could ride to Florida but nit need pain meds on the way Btw too much plastics on a spirt tourer is,gay
Comment from : @williamduckworth305

Holy bike picks, batman's budget Can you adopt me if these are for the normals

Comment from : @wooster1173

Don't buy a motorcycle with a chain I'm lazy no more dirty oil running off a chain buy shaft driven motorcycle what's my option Rocket 3 BMW r1250r a tough choice And I'm coming from a Hayabusa
Comment from : @richardcerritelli9657

My 2024 K 1600 B is awesome in every way, I love it! Sport touring for the win!
Comment from : @joeb734

Sorry- I will stick with a Concour 1400 for Sport touring or maybe just throw some bags on my ZX14R and carve up some miles
Comment from : @timnye718

What about ,KTM 1290gt 173hp, under ,500lbs, can on track days
Comment from : @annabaens5162

Heh he got a beating for this one Deserved I think, it's a bunch of incoherent ramblings mixed with bad advice, with a low effort classical tune in the background
Comment from : @goomba008

I get you about the bulk and weight of these touring behemoths, but unfortunately your argument is redundant for those of us that have been cursed with short legs The actually comfortable ADVs have seat heights of 835-870mm, which is out of reach for a lot of us For lower seat heights of 820-835mm, you don’t get comfort on an ADV as you get the basic specs or smaller bikes Even the tallest tourers don’t get any taller than 820mm and most are much lower I stand to be corrected though…
Comment from : @nickryan1522

I have a Honda VFR 1200F with 170 hp at 580 pounds in which I put in it 40k miles I'm afraid I have to disagree with this video This bike is amazing: I can keep up with guys on sports bikes and travel a lot I also ride this bike on my daily commute in a big city The only thing I wish this bike had is drive mode because sometimes it has way too much power But in general, I love it and it satisfies all my needs
