What cool bikes guys looks like you where having a blast on them be safe !!

So it limits your top speed until its broken in?

I’m impressed by how poorly the people who sell and review these bikes, understand these bikes. Until you get through the break-in and get the performance unlocked, these little KTMs are electronically restricted. No review should be done on one of these until they’ve been unrestricted, or you won’t know what your long term experience will be…

They dont want to get wound out because 2,300 rpms past 7k are locked during the break in period. The shift light is also telling you to shift much earlier during the break in period.

I miss the limited technology of my 2019 RT. The navigation was great, most always works. My 2022 Rt 1250 with the TFT screen is great when it works. Currently on a long distance tour, frustrating when in a town trying to find the hotel. More often times than not,, after searching for the destination on the Nav with the BMW app I get the message “no route found” prior to departure I had the 6K service performed, all software updates have been performed. Get your 💩together BMW I’m ready to switch brands.

how freaking pathetic the flashing red in top gear how much more chincy can you get. and the 200 with the light come on KTM seems like B.S. to me lame

Can you use android auto or apple carplay on the new bmw?

Many people waiting on delivery ... magnificent bike !!

Love the honest review... but I've been on the island, Hawaii, for too long. All these reviews are about mainland highways and these guys want to get up to 80 - 100mph. Lol the fasted speed limit here is 60mph so I think the 200 will do just fine for me 😅

What's the big deal with that TFT screen trend?? It's not beautiful... It sure is way cheaper for the manufacturer than mechanical gauges! And it's as if a German designer went to take a piss and forgot his tablet on the dash!

I live 30 miles away and have to pass two bmw dealerships to get to you, but it’ll be worth it. Very knowledgeable and appears to be good customer service ratings. I’ll be coming in soon. Great video comparison.

As someone who hasn't rode in over a decade, these are definitely two of the bikes that I'm looking at now to get back into riding

Thanks, greetings from THAILAND Here BMW Motorrad F900R Made in Thailand czcams.com/video/ktZEIvKTfTw/video.html

In that vest you look like a Walmart greeter. Also; I don’t need to be told 4 times what is “cool”.

Vibration Machine!

But, Is it reliable ?

Your audio is shit

Those are good tips in hot weather Thank you 😃

Thank you for sharing I subscribed to your channel. Have a safe ride.

you wont get 200 miles from a charge even on the 21kw battery

Bighorn is one of the best destination bars you could ever ride to just don't bring your animal lover friends with you🤣

Buy ecw 300 take the money and make it your way bling don't win races bike set up does and your still money ahead

Wonderful comparison thank you! as a owner of a 2017 RT, I'm waiting for the day that I can afford to upgrade to the 1250RT

Awesome. CalMoto are good folks. Nice vid!

You know Top cases come standard on GTL’s. It’s the GT models that do not come standard with top cases.

Great bike, great dealership!

Where are you located? I’m in U S

Good Review but the classic looks bad compare to OG

100% same bike, unless you truly want an iPad on the steering, in this case you need the new model. I think it is indeed a great bike but if you can't buy a new one just get the previous model because you get the same bike but you'll save 10k.

There is something about TFT completely black when engine is off that does not give me confidence. The thought of losing power to it (electronics) vs been able to see the analog console all the time. Call me old school) it is just very unlikely YES but if it happens it could be very frightening while driving

Those exhaust pipes will never be as cool as the Anaconda pipes on the first edition.

BMW doing their best to copy the Harley Davidson heavyweight lineup. Street Glide, Road King, Ultra Classic, etc.

That valve train noise scared me

Does anybody has experienced that the bike gets hot so you hace to pull over?

Display is ugly! I like my 2009 RT just fine, even my ‘94 RS. More electronic gizmos equals more money for repairs.

I have a 2019 R1250RT which I really enjoy riding. I have had a good long look at the newer 2021 model but the change over price was far too much for the improvements over my current machine. I will wait for the new 1300cc engine to launch before I am tempted to change. The TFT maps are ok but what happens when you have no mobile data coverage? The old garmin is starting to look good. The RT is a great bike and really comes into it's own when 2 up touring.

I'll take sound test two, lol!

If I could find a new one I would buy it in a heartbeat but no luck in the states at all. The dealers all say they can’t get one. This sucks. Great review on the bike. I will find one somewhere

This bike lost is mojo since the 2003 model. That just me!

Do the Classic has shorter ground clearance/ lean angle due to the smaller wheel/tires? If so, how much?

Awesome bike! :-)

which one give you more fun on the road??

მაჩუქეთ ვინმემ ასეთი მოტო, მე ამას ვერ ვიყიდი, ჩემი 3 წლის ხელფასი ღირს :)

Wow! Sound is much better with Classic.

I love my Classic with Floorboards. 700 miles and great fun. The tire change is a noticeable change. Go Classic with floor boards, better ride.

great review

Love the description. Keep the good work. I like the look of the R18 Classic front tyre size 16". Question: can the R18 using rim size 16" as the classic? Does it need calibration with the speedometer?

Outstanding idea on a second cooling vest. WOW

Does the adaptive cruise control work or is it awaiting approval in the United States like Ducati’s is for the Multistrada?

HEBAAATTT.... BIG BOS........👍👍👍
