Been riding for 20+ years, but also now coming from a CB500x to this one. Great insights.

A kind request to lose the stick, it's a distraction waving over the place. Glad you like the GT 👍

I’m enjoying your videos fella 👌🏻
I’m getting back into riding after over 20 years and the CB1000GT is top of my list.. will fully load it up with packages like you have 👍🏻
Recently test rode it and really liked it.
Also test rode a Ninja 1000SX, Versys 1100, Tracer 9 GT+ Y-AMT.. and even a Harley Davidson Fat Boy 😂

I received mine 3 weeks ago (same colour and same extras) and I agree you. There are more vibrations than expected from a four inline engine but it’s true they are diminishing with mileage. Heat coming from engine is there but welcome during winter (I don’t ride any motorbike during summer here in Spain). Handling on this motorbike is brilliant. It weighs only 4 Kg more than my previous Forza 750 😮.
Engine response is linear up to 6000rpm where it starts to show you the hell entrance and things start to come to you instead you going toward them. A motorbike to ride in a cold mind condition. Suspensions are superb: confortable but firm while cornering.
I subscribe all you said on your video.

Subbed mate, just started this YouTube malarkey myself haha I also I have the same bike.  I love it 👌 I have the same rattle on the screen too.

Hey any chance of showing the sizing on the panniers?
This is coming to Aus in December and havent really seen any details on the real world capacity of them.
Cheers.

Still waiting for US release.

I've been riding for 50 ish years year round.  I'm 72 and looking to downsize from my 750 pound knee roaster 1300 st.

I had inline fours back on the 80s and 90s.  They scream and they vibrate.  Vibration is a price I'm willing to pay.

I don't feel any heat from my GX Suzuki , similar type of bike. As to your vibration , the more miles you put on it the smoother it will get. Most 4 cylinder bikes smooth out over the miles.

I'd love it if you show your car play and cam set up (and how you wired it). I've got this bike on order and am looking at options for cams etc.

I'm test riding one this weekend at Youles Honda Manchester, I've seen one already in person in the red and it's an awesome looking bike.
Does the Akro exhaust sound a lot noisier though?, my old ears are a lot more sensitive nowadays.

Have you had any issues with the topbox pushing the pillion into the rider
