    I agree with you 100% Yamaha nailed it when they built this bike I had to get me one final in 07 and still have it right today beautiful design bike some people call it the Intimidator

    I have a 04. It's still a beast 16 years later. It's most stock besides a exhaust I put on it. I have so much fun Everytime I take it out. The Harley Boys at work don't give me as much grief for buying a Yamaha after we all went out and I took them to gapplebease. It's a great bike! I don't know what I would get next or what bike would make me smile as much as the Warrior does. I hope to have her for more years to come.

    Thank you for the video. It's August of 2023 and i have a chance to buy a very clean 2003 model. Because of this and the many other videos singing its praises, if I can get it, i will. I'm a sport bike enthusiast, and at sixty-four years its time to get off my wrists.

    HD tried to patent their sound in the 80s or 90s. It forced Honda to reconfigure their engine angle. Yamaha went around it by making that series of engine sound more badass than a good Harley.

    As far as HD V-Rod goes, there were 2 models during the production run the "Street Rod" (no, not that one) and the Night Rod (not Night Rod Special) that had foot controls that fell about just below the seat, very similar to the Bolt C-spec.

  • @kierenmoore3236

    Really hope you can do a direct comparison with a VTX soon ... I know you’ve ridden one, but not for quite some time, yeah?! Perhaps a subscriber nearby would lend you one for a comparison ... ?

  • @domschwarz502
    @domschwarz502 Před 3 lety +1

    I'm in the process of buying on of these. It has a gorgeous V&h pro pipe, but there's no way of using that in Germany, it will get me in trouble with cops all the time. So sadly I'm gonna buy it with the stock exhaust and put a slip-on on it.
    Its incredibly rare here and I got a really good offer. Could you do some more vids on this bike? I need my warrior itch scratched until winter is over and I can finally go and test ride and maybe buy that bike.

    The engines in these are great. I have a Yamaha MT-01, which is a sporty naked with flat track bars and not much else. It is powered by this 1670 cc V-twin. It weighs 584 lbs wet and production ceased in 2012. It is a cult bike in Europe. You didn't get it in USA, although Canada did. You should google it if you don't know it.

    • @user-sw2lv3zp6o

      Certainly more sporty, but you actually tilt forward to the bars. Not totally upright like on a big trails bike.

    How does it stack up to a m109? I know my 08 RS warrior is an absolute blast too ride with PCS exhaust and Power Commander 5. Also after 06, compression ratio was tweaked but its such a great handling, lightweight and good looking PC

    • @Peakfreud

      Never owned a 109, its about the only Suzuki next to the Busa that I liked
      The 109 is to Suz what the Warrior is to Yami...the best bike they produced
      Honda's best bike IMO was the VTX 1800 From the Mid 2000's

      ed drasco Depends on your mate’s upgrades on the earlier model... apart from any sort of power enhancements... stock to stock, shall we say... the 2020 model is near a sport bike to the previous iteration, not so much in terms of raw power, though there is a bit more, but less weight and much more nimble... have to re-calibrate a bit each time I come off one to the other... oh, and heaps of grunt with both bikes, but have to say the overdrive gear on the 2020 version is a huge upgrade... apologies for the over-long response... will probably cure you from asking another Rocket owner about his Rocket!

      Jon's Moto Garage Yeah I definitely enjoy the fact that I have to be careful not to get that rear wheel to break loose on me. Even in top gear at 65 mph a twist of the wrist(no reference intended) and the quickly accelerates to 80-85 in no time at all. It has definitely been quite the learning curve cornering this machine. Maybe one day I’ll get the opportunity to ride that Yamaha as it sounds like a sweet ride and nimble turner
