just bought my first bike, 2008 Kawasaki z750..11k miles, 2800 GBP...as a new rider im stunned at how fast these things can go for the small price tag

My step dad used to race bikes, and has owned dozens in his nearly 40 years of riding. But for the last 10 years, his weapon of choice has been a 2004 SV1000S. He loves it, it's his absolute pride. During covid his gearbox blew 4th gear, and he couldn't get a replacement for it without forking out about £800 for a new engine just to take the gearbox out of it. So he bought a GSXR gearbox from the same year and fitted it. He was surprised to feel the bike have a much better response with the R gearbox, and all he wants on it now are some upside down forks. It's an absolutely beautiful bike and looks more modern than some current gen motorcycles.

Can find a Honda Blackbird for cheaper than a Busa or most other bikes on this list except for the Suzuki RF.
The Blackbird was the quickest production bike until that crown was taken by the Busa, but it's still impressively quick, even by today's standards.

SUZUKI HAYABUSA BLUES: A young man (call him Bob) wanted to get a good budget sports car for racing, but a friend recommended that he could find plenty of affordable racing motorcycles that can beat most cars on the road. Bob found a slightly used Suzuki GSX1300R Hayabusa that was modified for racing (speed governor removed, high-compression pistons, improved porting, hotter cams, lighter weight mods, etc.) that was less than the stock cost of $17, 000. Bob bought it, passed his motorcycle license test easily because at low speed, the Hayabusa is rather docile. Its massive 1340cc engine has so much torque that simply letting off the clutch on first gear smoothly propels you forward without incident. On top of that, it carries its weight pretty well. It doesn’t feel like you’re waddling around on a 600-pound, 197 horsepower behemoth. Bob drove around town for the first few days to wisely get acclimated to the bike and he found it very pleasant. Then Bob took the Hayabusa on the freeway to see how fast it could go. There he was gripped by the yellow corkscrew of terror rising up his spine after he pulled back on the throttle and was thrown into a world of speed the likes of which he had never experienced before. When you twist the throttle at any gear, a sudden rush of acceleration overcomes you, similar to how a strong wave just washes you away at the beach. It feels like the ground is being pulled away beneath you. In other words, its power delivery is unlike most other bikes out there. So yeah, as a beginner, you're most likely to be taken off guard by that much grunt, and before you know it you’re going at speeds that could land you in jail, or the morgue. Bob took his 'Busa on a racetrack, but could not shake the horror that that 220 mph modified widow-maker was going to kill him, so he sold it. Bob wanted to live. Who could blame him?

As a proud RF9 owner in Canada thanks for the recognition….took me a bit by surprise not many of these bikes left…

[craigjones]

My first big bike was an rf900r and I loved that bike so much

[Sticks]

Here in Oz, you can get a 2005 BMW K1200S with just 26, 000 miles on the clock for the equivalent of $5200USD. That's a 10.2 second quater mile, 2.8 second 0-60 big sports tourer with the tech of many current bikes. The better looking K1200R naked bike has aged beautifully and can be had even cheaper.

Yammie, you forgot a couple of bikes for this list. One is the Kawasaki ZRX1100 and ZRX1200. The second is the Suzuki Bandit 1200.

RF900 BROS UNITE!!!! WE FINALLY GOT MENTIONED I CAN'T CONTAIN MY EXCITEMENT

[schweizervaje]

Finally he talks about the used market

[RyanCasey]

I am here 100% for the sv on the title screen.

[FlaviaPitariu]

Is the Suzuki bking not a thing in the states? That had the Diavel beat for power 😂

[JuiceSV]

I got an SV1000s for £900 and am loving it

[Dravenk]

Did not see the yamaha FZ1/FZ1N on this list its quicker than the sv1000 and can be found around the same price.

Happy the fz09 got mentioned. My older brother has one, and it's a fun bike. While outside of the 1/4 mile time for the video by a little bit the gsxs750 is another high value option. I have one as my commuter, so I have to show it a bit of love.

[dustinkeim]

I had a sv1000s I loved that bike, with a couple mods that bike can rip

[seafooddiablo]

I wonder if yam actually rides these bikes or owns them long term. I miss the vids of him riding and bonding with bikes. My mom can read me spec sheets

[travispettko]

How is the gen 1 Yamaha fz1 not on this list

[NickBurman]

Personally I would avoid the Buell, on account of it being a motorbike from a defunct company for which spares might be (or become) an issue.

[terrysmith]

Brilliant video. As a former owner of the RF900 (which was a much better all-rounder than the contemporary ZZR1100) and MT-10SP (which is just the most fun one two wheels) your video hit the spot. I especially liked your comment that having a sporty bike was like owning your own roller coaster. I’ve been saying that for years!
