- We've ridden them on track, now's the time to argue about them in the studio as we try in vain to come up with a verdict. At the end of the day, all three bikes are incredible but personal preference does come into it.

This video was so simple but right to the point and a very good one It doesn't matter how fast the bikes can go 95% of the time the Operator is going to be the limiting factor these bikes go super fast!
True that, it even is true when the bikes "only" have 130hp...
I absolutely love my 2017-CBR-1000RR-SP2-Full Akro Titanium exhaust with the ECU Flash- Its telepathic
Love you Folks!
Keep up the awesome work and kudos to your sincere efforts 👏
Love watching guys!
Loving my 2017 Fireblade :)
POMMEY BIKER any problems with the shifter and anti-wheelie?
shifter was rubbish because the dealer didnt spend the time adjusting the angle to my foot (so i did it myself). Quick shifter is very nice when in the right foot position. Gotta shift it with some meaning (new engine) but it works as intended if you do. Havent made any wheelie attempts yet, its a week old, but the power is very connected to the brain. It makes perfect sense. Pull it back fast enough and shes light at the front. This bike feels very fun and exciting on 2 wheels on the apex, not on one wheel
POMMEY BIKER it’s my number 2 choice right now, but those two things have me skeptical. From what I’ve seen in videos, the wheelie control cuts the power abruptly, slamming the front wheel back down. They should’ve just made it like everyone else. I heard the up/down quickshifter is amazing when it’s working right. Congrats on the new fireblade!
POMMEY BIKER You live in Sydney? I think I watched a review you did on the CBR. Helped me make the decision to buy the SP.
How's it going 1 year later?
Good video men !got a gen 5 zx10r had it flashed and set up ..what a different animal 🖒
I agree. My 2015 zx10 after the ecu flash, bazazz and two brothers exhaust was a totally different animal.
Whether you agree with the lads’ choices or not based on other reviews or your experience, this is a decent review for an average rider. Thank you.
loved the comment about the gsxr being a bully before and now being "sophisticated".
I drive a 98 750srad on track, me mate an 04 cbr600rr, my gearbox broke down and I got to ride the last session on his bike.
WOW what a difference... the srad feels and sounds ruff, like a hooligan the rr sounded so gentle and was very easy to ride, engine so soft and sophisticated...
the RR was definately a surprise to me and my mate, being that I drove only 2 sec slower than him...
that with holding a lot of reserve, not wanting to crash it...
I do however like more the kick, thrill the gsxr gives.
one big difference between the two was ergonomics. the rr was a very small bike, sitting all cropped up, the srad I look like a dragster on it. The srads tank ends halfway the RR's seat...
Hey guys, I just looked up the red star raceway, I never heard of it before, pretty cool track layout, it must be fun to ride there. Greetings from the US.
As much as I love seeing them around an watching videos of them, liter bikes aren't my thing, waaaaay too much power. But, if I ever decided it's time for one, it will be nothing other than a Fireblade, old or new.
And here I am wanting to put a smaller sprocket on the front, and larger on the back for my 2016 ZX10R, cuz I want it to be even more nuts lol
You don't need to choose which bike you want based on speed and track performance fellas. Comfort and looks will come before it's track performance. I don't want or need a track bike. I want reliability and masterful engineering. I want great breaks and a gas gauge. I'd like a beautiful display that is clear to read no matter the lighting outside. I want my bike to sound mean, but not obnoxious. I want it start up every single time year after year. The machine that you can't stop looking at. I need to have great performance that leaves nothing to be desired. That's probably why I'm gonna buy a Honda CBR Fireblade. Straight up though it's really close and I love the big 4 from Japan. Honda, Kawasaki, Yamaha, Suzuki make wonderful engine's. The reliability of a Japanese bikes really is amazing to me.
Guys, lap times are important. I just came from watching the MCN shootout and there were significant differences in lap-times around the circuit they tested. Whilst I agree that none of us are famous fast riders and couldn't use all of the bike's power/capabilities, it's still fun to know how much you can get from it. If all the bikes are so close and so great, the choice we make apart from looks (which is totally subjective) and brand loyalty, is based upon their performance and speed around a track and usability around town as a commuter, or as a sports tourer. So whilst I always prefer a local perspective on bike tests, I'm always going to go with what MCN say because their test is just more comprehensive and detailed. I'd prefer it the other way around frankly. Gauteng has the altitude which makes tests important as we're dealing with 16% less power. Dyno tests, quarter mile runs, and fastest laps, including a tour to Mpumalanga would be awesome to see on your show. With tests like this one, I'm left wanting I'm afraid. We know all the bikes are epic. You're there to tell and show us why. You've got the best job in the world!!! I know budget will always be a factor with what can you do, but at least make it a little more exciting for us to watch. Just saying :)
BJ from Fast Bikes had an issue with brake fade on the track. Apparently the OEM brake fluid couldn't deal with the temps, creating condensation in the reservoir, then sucked the the rubber down into the reservoir tube. Might want to check if you still have the GSX-R.
Suzuki realised a problem, and upgraded the brakes on the 2018, different caliper pistons and thicker discs!
Thks again guys.
Just picked up an 18 blade for 12k OTD .. thats taxes /title/fees..
Beautiful bike , best guages outside Yamaha & ducati v4
I love ur channel bro I'm ur subscriber man
Which bike launches the best from a stop in a drag race?
I think y’all shud compare them on the road where people will spend them on daily.. hence which will be better on the road?
Im no engineer or shit but in just styling for me the Honda wins it.
I'm no engineer or shit but in juicy styling for me the Kawi wins it 😂
I am an engineer ...and the Aprilia does it for me!
Im Simply guy i see Honda and press like 👌🏍️
every litre bike these days is almost identical
go with what you like best and what feels best for you
And where was the R1 in this tail.
It's great to hear the honesty how they really are all about the same.
What year is that cbr
What about R1? Where does it fit in?
Great show guys but let's be honest . There is a bike with every attribute you've been asking for straight out the box and it's the Aprilia tuono 1100 factory. I'm 52 yrs old and have test ridden pretty much all the latest super nakeds and sport bikes and if you want an amazing engine, great looks , comfort, handling, etc get the tuono factory .
exept i think it looks like crap. Because tbh it still almost has full fairings like a superbike but the screen has the top 2/3 chopped of.
But I dont want to argue at all, different people have different tastes. I dont like the Hondas looks either but TBS team and the commenters seem to think its the most beautifull :)
Im keen on suzuki
Yay got this in the first minute
ZX10 for me
For me would be an SP Fireblade, if I could afford it
Fast forward to 2022...which one would you still want, only one answer there, the GSXR...even cruise control available for it now, ideal for that ride to the Bol d'Or! That Honda barely won anything, was a disaster on the road racing circuit, BSB, WSB,etc(OK a Bol d'Or), Kawasaki, built for competition, did well in most things , I.o.M etc, but has aged terrible, where as the Suzuki still has it, and it won the senior straight out the box at the TT Races, SERT have proved it reliable as usual in the World Endurance championship, comfy all rounder as sports bikes go, so in it's 6yrs in existence, the clear winner(Honda are still all at sea in most race series,they've lost their mojo)? New Ninja is certainly a better looker, but cannot be said for the new 'Blade, one here was quite a looker. Buy a R1 for the noise, otherwise, a Gixer!
Did i hear that right a quarter of a million? 😮 how much was the fireblade? really?
Shamrock 1693 fireblade is overpriced. Makes sense why i havent seen but 1 on the road since they been out
@@streetdreamsstreetbi Seriously I'm considering buying a new bike and I like the CBR's but they are just overpriced I am most likely getting the zx 10 all grey 2017 very sharp and sexy and not overpriced. Also comes with a discount from the dealer cbr was my first choice but I'm not paying that much for a bike lol so fuck honda I'll take my money Els were
R1 isn't in this video because crossplane is too much for these blokes to handle.
All of this is just for us (marketing) the one constant about bikes - the skill set of the rider... I go to track days all the time and get passed by guys on 9 year old...whatever bikes as I ride my brand new S1000RR :) skills boys skills... that's all folks.
Now I'm far from a professional, and I've only ridden superbikes for a total of about 1 hour in my life, but. When I was at kyalami for the bike festival, I rode the S1000RR, New Gixxer, Fireblade and R1 and the Honda had the most violent acceleration, it's the only bike I couldn't hold the throttle down on the straight. Did you guys find the same? Where the Honda felt like it pulled the hardest.
The Fireblade still has awesome mid-range grunt. On the road that makes it feel very fast.
mid range powerband. honda has it down.
Maybe you rode honda with nitrous and turbo thrusters
Actually in reality the Suzuki has the most midrange with that awesome vvt motor.
Honda is slowest of all liter bikes
Can't go wrong with any
the honda and suzuki looks dope with a shorty exhaust...but honda is probably the best looking liter bike ever..even from italian and german bikes...it is the best looking bike but the gsxr1000 looks dope in black or red and has 200hp that cost a lot lot of money...the cbr1000rr needs another 3000 euros to get 200 hp...hp cost a lot
Around 180bhp with a full system and the fueling set up at the back wheel...costs a lot more to get to 200bhp on a Gixer too...don't believe the PR from the factory, dynos don't lie(much)!
'Handling has always been a weak point on the GSX-R' What?? One of the first comments meant the review lost it's credibility for me.
I see this many times for Honda
RSV4 still the best sounding litre bike..a close second being the r1 and new panigale v4
Well, thats your opinion lol.
About right there!
Zx10r all the way.
Zx10 looks most beast
Richard van Tricht if you like to look like you just came out of the kindergarden. The green and black Ninja theme is outdated. Imo.
HeyAddieImTojo if you want a boring looking bike i would agree
The petrol tank is in your face. Way too high.
@@HeyAddieImTojo I agree with the color but they have plenty of other color options for the 2017 and 2018 you don't have to buy that green and black
SALTY BIG MAD bronsexuals LECHOKE is GARBAGE that is good. I actually just sat on a zx10 this weekend at a bike show. Felt really good. Nice for riders that don’t like to stand out to the extreme that they’ve got some more color options.
Blade for me all day long.
Road Racing are Endurance is the best way to see what's best, that 'Blade was an abject failure, hence it had a short shelf life, as pretty as it was...Honda threw all sort of top racers at it, it just didn't work...and tried to kill a few, McGuinness and Martin for two!
SUZUKI. Anyday.
Quarter of a million? What planet are they on.
250,000 african rand, about 14k gbp mate!
Well zx10r is fastest bike nowadays only leaving behind ducati v4
Zx10r
What currency are these guys using? These bikes have never been a quarter million dollars or pounds or euros.
Rands
A country run by Marxists...currency is worth peanuts
The GSXR headlamp kinda looks like a woman's crotch..
What? Bright and shiny.
I can't that out of my head now! 😄
Best bike for tall rider??? 6’4.
I'm 6'4" and feel most comfortable on the gsxr
I am over 6'3" with long legs and I am very comfortable on my ZX10R
im 6'7 and own fireblade,out of these three gsxr is the best for tall
I’m 6’5 and I ride a 2018 r1 it’s not bad at all I got a slightly bigger rear tire 200/55 which also made it slightly taller too.
Where are you getting these prices? Or is it in pesos or something?? 250,000?? One too many zeros. Honda site was listing the fireblade for 17,000. 🤷
Got myself a nice ZX14r for $3000 AUD. Bargain. And an amazing bike to ride. Corner way better than people made them seem and so well balanced considering the weight.
no R1?
They look out of planet
honda cbr 1000rr . SP2, 2017 is the best
Talkin bout bull-jiving.wowwee!
Kawasaki +
ĢSXR forever ❤
honda cbr 1000 rr-r 2020.. the best........
Go green with kawasaki
2017 cbr is the best superbike ever.
I'm a Honda fanboy and that's a ridiculous statement
@@rustyshackleford6874 overpriced machine
"Cough" ...an abject failure as a superbike...why Honda binned it early and had a major rethink...which is still away out!
HONDA HONDA HONDA
The Suzuki gets my $$.....
That exhaust on that gsx is soooo ugly, thats the first thing ill change if i got one
I think it combines the cat and muffler, so that you can more easily replace both without getting more pipes.
Ok, i see, but is really ugly
Whew! for a moment there I thought you were going to complain about it and just leave the comment at that. Glad you also included that you'd change it........which 95% of superbike owners do. Good thing Suzuki put the cat inside the muffler, so you don't have to change the midpipe out as well.
The gsxr actually has the best bike for once ....
S1000RR, still cheaper with more power and features..
And waaaaay down the reliability list.
kubota
For best quality honda ......
Looks like the Main Editor Biased towards Honda .But Kawasaki will rule this segment for some time As Honda FB has to prove its Value of Performance for next 2-3 years Honda should have done this launch a year earlier and that would have made some serious impact on Market for 1000cc segment They are now late in this party with this very ordinary performing machine hope many of us will agree & Sustaining the compitition in modern world would be tough task .Honda is no more a choice Hardcore riders it's for older and more for ameture riders ,As Kawasaki is for a Rider All performance What superbike ment for ,Honda for A investment Purpose and for tad older riders . Suzuki Trying impress everyone or Trying to do everything and achieved nothing ,Yamaha very close to Kawasaki but asking too much for same , BMW ,Apprillia and Ducati are for flighthy rich ,Does the same thing as Kawasaki does but at Cost of few extra organs .KTM is New boy here,So very Exclusive and mental.Another 2-3 years and it will at par or even better than many up here and ruled this segment.Anyway the review was bit like Publicity campaign of Honda.God Save Honda FB
Orange Automatrix There is no single point on the Kawasaki better than the Suzuki, in fact, have less POWER. Gixxer 1000RR is the bike of the year.
Orange Automatrix don't worry about the honda, its selling like hot cakes and most are loving it.
Ninad Ganore Aha sorry I forgotten that all Honda Activas and Shines are Mini Fireblade 1000 and we were talking about it.Thanks for reminding.You have Amazing knowledge .
Orange Automatrix I meant the sales of fireblade in the international market you idiot. Specially in the uk.
Ninad Ganore ,Aha Your direction change is Quite fast anyway Don't jump into Adjectives to tad too fast.I have very little knowledge about international market and exposure and I don't even track events in international you tube channels ,other media, website, in this net age slightly ignorant rascal .So was my mistake ,Can you share the sales figure of Same speciiiiiiiially of UK as in India it's not happening at this point of time . Future I don't know.
Honda , but all the fucking false neutrals , and they dont admit it !!!!!! Get ur shit together !!!!!!
Cbr and gsxr these both
are ahead zxr and even r1
Pro bikers will choose gixxer..
zecky wd yeah. Most pros pick Honda.
What "pro" have you seen riding on the street.
I watch the "pro" on the streets , the NW200,the TT Races and between the hedges in Ireland... that Honda was a disaster!
Lmfao these guys are so biased it’s crazy and they shouldn’t be creating reviews on any bikes. First off the motor in the GSXR is by far the strongest maybe they were riding in C mode because they are noobs. The motor pulls harder than the BMW but it’s all about how biased the reviewer is or what their skill level is. Get actual racers on the bikes and do a review, not three out of shape old dudes. This is a zero value review.
I agree that 1 guy riding the ZX10 probably weighs half of what the bike does he shouldn't be talking about its power or lack thereof on the bottom end.. What a waste of a review
I agree my buddy just bought a Zx10r and it is not slacking ...
Brembo lend their name to the brakes but they aint proper Brembos. Fit an authentic Brembo mastercylinder and see the difference. That Gixxa looks shite, dust bin muffler and the graphics look like they were designed by a 3 year old for a lego kit.
Hate it when they are trying to be diplomatic and can't make decision. Rubbish. I am going to unsubscribe.
The handling has always been a week point on the gsxr?????
And then you ride them at half lean angle...
Unsubscribe
sledgehammermessiah sooo true. 🤣🤣🤣🤣 they lost my subscription when they gave it to honda. Not saying the gsxr is the best bike but it def poops on the honda 😅😅. Id rate the gsxr better then the r1 also and the bmw has transmission issues down the line. Wont see that on a shootout and out the box the gsxr is most def better then a zx10
God only knows why on earth I watch rubbish like this?? Babble Babble Babble😡
and the winner is...........
Bmw s1000rr
time travel back to 2010, bmw wins. 2018, Aprilia or Panigali V4
