2025 YAMAHA R9 | LAUNCH FIRST RIDE REVIEW

We headed to Spain for the launch of the new Yamaha R9, things didn't really go to plan and we had to change location, we ended up on the same track that we tested the Ducati V2 a couple of weeks ago, comparison coming!

This guy does the best reviews on YouTube.

Guy hops on a brand new bike and within ten seconds he's trying to wheelie it... I like him already!

[loel]

Love to see the reviews by a fast rider who doesn't talk to much about numbers and marketing nonsense. It's all about the feel at the limit, especially at the front end. Probably a much better bike for track days than all of the 1000ccm for 95% of the riders.

[GazBromley]

This is the best R9 review so far, cheers Chris.

If there is a bike tester that is really able to transport how much fun a motorcycle can be, it's got to be him. Great review as always.

6.31 The wee wah part was the best feature of this bike and Yamaha should finally take notice . Love the reviews man, just happy watchin a man really loving his job and especially when a good fun bike comes along

[Floxiiik]

I cant wait to test one of them, I absolutely LOVE the CP3 engine, it's just insane how fast it can hit 200. The R9 fixes all the issues I have with the MT. especially the brakes, suspension looks good as well and ofc I'm a supersport fanboy.

[Nick-metl]

One of the best honest reviewers this men

[Chilliesauce]

This guy could get me to buy a bike a don’t even want with the way he raves about a good bike.
Best bike personality on YouTube by a country mile. Seems honest, enthusiastic and friendly.
Brilliant review again and the R9 looks by your judgment a brilliant bike. 🎉

[Sunrazor]

Don't need a new bike. Won't buy a new bike. Not interested in a sportsbike. But I can't stop watching because Chris is so entertaining.

[motodaxa]

so happy to hear about the front!! hopefully used r6 prices can calm tf down now

[strutter]

Best bike Journo…

No nonsense…. And always happy.

[HamzaFaruqui]

Watching Neeves and Chris together feels like a much bigger deal than any MCU crossover to me

[flyingdutchy]

I love how the Supersport class is reinventing itself! There's so many amazing bikes being released nowadays

[roryhassett]

Fabulous review...thank you!! Glad you had a great time too!

[TheSpanishVulture]

Suzuki just need to bring back the gsxr 750 in the UK now 🙏🏽

[motogearz]

Awesome review. Thanks for going into detail with the frame. I think the chassis is what this bike is about and the ease of riding on track.

[fwijffels]

I feel like you would be such good friends with Zack from Revzilla if you would meet him. Both of you are racers at heart, witty, hardcore and well spoken. Great review!

I follow and subscribe to a lot of motorbike YouTube channels, and by a clear margin, you have to be the best motorbike journalists out there. So professional, informative, passionate and exciting. If Top Gear in the old days did a motorbike series, you would be the Jeremy Clarkson of motorbike reviewing. I always look forward to any new video that you bring out. Keep it up, love it!!!

[joeblow]

Good lookin scoot.
Well done review, Chris
Cheers from OKC 🍺
