He’s fantastic. What a funny guy. He gets you interested and eager to listen to what he’s saying. Great charisma.

Being 66, it's a perfect sport bike for someone in my age group. I love my Red 950 S

[vanduc]

This guy is good at what he does! Someone give this man a raise!

[nikomajor]

This seems like my kind of bike.

Hol' up.

Sold, best Ducati sales person Ive heard. I'll get mine on Saturday, I'm a dad

[UrgetoRide]

Chris is so damn likeable. Fantastic review as usual. My back still has mileage on it so sport tourers dont appeal to me, but they nailed the styling on these 950

Excellent like to dislike ratio shows how good this video is, and how good Chris's delivery is.

I know this shouldn't be a surprise because he's been doing this for a long time, but bloody hell Chris is one of THE best motojourno/racer/testers out there at the moment. So watchable, with a genuinely funny and engaging way of presenting. He plays on pretending to be a "grown up road tester" but this is pure tongue in cheek as he is clearly one of the most experienced and a massive number of the so called YouTube motovloggers could learn a lot from someone who really knows his stuff. Top work. More of the same please 👊😎

Truly enjoy the insights in your reviews. You painted an excellent picture of what this bike is.

Like that quote "while people are going past you just be safe in the knowledge they are less comfortable than you are."

[andrewlucas]

I’m glad they still make bikes like this. Think vfr, triumph sprint st....comfortable, good looking bikes with characterful engines.

[ashishanandnarayanan]

I see Chris, I first like and then start watching :). What an amazing guy.

[shivamsaraswat]

Quoting it "Panigale for your dad" was the best sum-up anyone has ever come up with. That was savage. Loved the video (as always). Great Work Chris. ✌️

"Panigale for your dad" Brilliant!!!, best bike reviewer on youtube

I think these guys do the best real world reviews. I know this vid is 3 years old but I think he is spot on. I was in the market for a sports bike and tried them all and I can without a doubt say that all of the race bikes, Panigale V2 or V4, S1000RR, RSV4, R1 etc. absolutely suck to ride on the street. In fact, just 2 days ago I was getting repair done and they just offered for me to take a Panigale V2 out. It was awful, hot as hell, I could not lift my head up high enough to see, it has absolutely nothing under the hood below 8k and when the power kicks in it is so non linear and violent but just feels bad. Now the 950S is a much different story, it definitely reminds me of 80's-90's sport bikes. Yes, I do own a 950S but that was after being disappointed by all of the race bikes. I can 100% tell you that on the road the 950S feels faster than any of these race bikes, more torque, comfortable and so planted. I like that 937 engine so much that I have the Hyper SP, Desert X and the 950S. Anyone who buys based off of horse power figures or track times is making a big mistake. I suggest if you are not a track only or a track guy 5 times a year a race bike is not worth the expense or the suffering. If you ride the 950S on road you will absolutely not be disappointed by the power, it honesty feels like a 140hp bike or more. That being said, I also own a Pikes Peak, Super Duke Evo and a gen 2 Vmax so I can truly speak about the power will not feel under powered on the 950s.

Whilst I have sat waiting for them to release a Ducati "Super Road" that has cruise control, I am watching loads of videos about the current model. Over the last two years I must have watched 40+ video reviews yet somehow had not stumbled across this one. I can say without exaggeration, this is by far the best I have seen, you have given me a better feel for what the bike is like than any of the others managed, almost to the point of not being quite so fussed about cruise, which my S1KRR has and I do love it. Great job Chris, I have subscribed so I can be sure to see more of your stuff. You and Neevesy are in another league.

[eskemeldgaardkrogh]

Great review of a bike high on my “want” list! I know I’m in the minority, but I actually wish Ducati had gone more in the direction of their old STs with the new 950. I know, I know... that type of bike is decidedly out of style, but I’m still a sucker for a great sporty bike that you can actually daily ride.
Ducati will try to convince you that they made the Multistrada for geezers like me - but these road biased enduro bikes are just plain ugly to me.

Love the way you review bikes. Super informative, articulate and to the point. Many thanks. G.

[luisribeiro]

Your reviews are always SPOT-on mate!
The sort of info from a real-world day to day biker's perspective, and the sort of feedback we all really want to know about...
Served with well thought of examples and notions that are almost able to transport us in to the ride with you...
Well done brother, i must say, VERY well done.
Thks for caring and for sharing.
Cheers and best regards from PORTUGAL

Fantastic review and better presenter. Straight to the point with a sense of humor that is never cheesy. Thank you.
