As a European specifically German. I disagree. Yes we have the greatest engineers in my opinion but only when it comes to pure numbers and mechanical technology but the biggest problem is that we look at the short term best engine instead of the longevity. They don’t last as long because they are too complicated in design nowadays. I’m talking for German engineers specifically.

Why use 2 parts when you can use 5?

European here. With all my local patriotism, allow me to politely interject: bollocks! The Japanese are the masters. Of course the Eurobikes are "better" - they cost more. They are all "premium", whereas the Japanese cover the entire bandwidth of the market. Pay a Japanese manufacturer as much as you would for a Ducati or a BMW (let alone Harley Davidson), you'd get a gem of a motorcycle. The Japanese - the Asians in general - are very good at selling you exactly what you're willing to pay for. Cheap Chinese wares are crap because you wanted to buy cheap Chinese crap, and the Chinese will gladly sell it to you. Japanese vehicles are affordable and reliable because that's what you wanted from a Japanese vehicle. Do you know why we are making premium European motorcycles and cars? Because we incapable to make Japanese ones.

No, disagree. The engineering and quality of the BMW bikes and components I've had are far superior to the Japanese bikes I've had. I mean, I agree with you in part, but you get what you pay for with a BMW. Some people value precision and quality and clean designs that include maintenance+longevity in their engineering+materials+design. All too often, I'm working on a Japanese bike and muttering to myself: why the hell did they design it like this, why didn't they use a better alloy here, why is this so difficult to access?

@horrovac

@@chadkline4268 well, this is precisely my point? You can't really disagree and then go on to say exactly what I'm saying. You do get what you pay for with a BMW - but you have to pay for that. Of course they have better materials, bespoke designs and high-value components, because they're expensive. But that doesn't require a lot of engineering skill. Slap some Brembo brakes on, WP or Öhlins suspension bits, good tyres. If you need an attachment point on transmission or engine, you design a new casing. You'll get paid, because it's a premium product and people will pay for that. However, Hondas for example are notoriously reliable. At any case they're not worse than a BMW. The rest of the Japanese big four are also quite reliable, not worse than European manufacturers (and in some cases, *much* better). Servicing a Ducati will cost you an arm and a leg when the valvetrain service is due. BMWs aren't exactly a bargain to service either. The Japanese bikes are cheap to buy, cheap to own and won't let you down. Now that takes some engineering. They didn't use a better alloy because it would be expensive. Stuff is difficult to access because they are reusing designs and keeping the cost down. Simplify the design wherever possible. Reduce the number of parts. I admire that - especially if the end result works just as well or even better than the expensive stuff. I know I'm weird, but I think that a Citroën 2CV, or a ridiculously cheap, small modern car is much more interesting than a Rolls-Royce or a Mercedes. With enough time and money, any idiot can design that - but you must really know your stuff to design a 2-cylinder motor with a single coil and without a distribution cap to save production cost.

I love the premium feel of my Ducati Streetfighter V4S. My previous bike was a Yamaha FZ09, which was a fun bike, but didn't make me smile the way the Ducati does. Then again the Streetfighter did cost me 3x the price of the Yamaha and the service costs are 2x-3x which is no joke.

The streetfighter is faster and feels about 100lbs lighter even though it’s nearly the same weight. geometry, suspension, light wheels and how the bike is engineered makes such a massive difference in the handling. it really is unbelievable how much the bike feels like a 600 with how flickable it is (handlebars def help too) the S model was expensive af but man that dynamic Ohlins and forged wheels are so worth it.

Japanese ethos doesn’t believe that consumer conveniences should be limited to a particular section of society. That’s why they’re so hell focused on reliability, longevity, accessibility, and quality control, which are intrinsically linked to their philosophy of Obitouri, which you can read about, rather than “look-I-am-the-big-daddy-syndrome”. European manufacturers , in fact the entire western manufacturing, don’t believe in anything as such. They’re good in giving you boners, but they can’t be trusted.

But when they do actually try to make ones that they don't make to be budget friendly they deliver of course.

In Brazil, Eurobikes lack durability. They can’t stand our heat and roads, whereas Japanese ones own it. Also, it’s a shame European motorcycles do not invest in inline 4, which, let’s be honest, present the best motor sound possible.

Japanese motorbike are reliable .

Servicing price is too high. Parts are harder to get.

Great episode. I own an old 98 Ducati ST2, and a 2015 Gxs S750. They are night and day as far as temperament and ease to ride. The GsxS is exactly what you'd expect from an inline four Japanese bike. It's fast when it gets past 6000 rpm, it shifts smooth, easy maintenance and a dream to daily drive especially around town. The Ducati is polar opposite. It has a dry clutch which is loud and rowdy. The clutch is on or off, no in between. It's wild like a bronco that's nice enough to let you ride it. You must rev match the Ducati or the rear end bounces because of high compression in the motor. In other words no engine braking. It has a deep voice. It sounds like an old muscle car. It's fun to ride also, just more demanding.

I only agree to the fact that italian bike look good but for my own experience i will never buy again a duc. I had a hypermotard 2014 new. this bike just gave me headache.

If you could afford to purchase and maintain euro bikes, then by all means, you do you. Japanese bikes are meant to be more accessible to as many riders as possible.

Me with a Chinese CFMoto: 👁️👄👁️

I loved my BMW K 1300 S, but after leaving it in pieces on the freeway, I tried a Ducati Supersport 939. It was absolute crap. It felt like there was an oven under the seat. The mirrors vibrated so badly that they were useless. And it would routinely hit false neutrals when using the autoshifter. If BMW had made a bike like the R 1200 RS with the K 1300 engine, I'd have purchased one. But they discontinued the inline 4 Ks for more boxers, and the boxer twin is annoying. A year ago, I was finally able to find a Ninja 1000 SX to test ride, and I drove it home the same day. It's smooth, quick, and comfortable. For what I want out of a bike, there isn't even a European option today.

I agree! And the only bike I desire outside of Ducati or Aprilia is the Fireblade!

When I was young, I loved my Ducati 851 Super Sport, just like my Italian girlfriend, just sweet and beautiful when everything was fine. But she was unpredictable, temperamental, complicated, high maintenance. She required expensive restaurants and a dozen roses. My KTM riding friend says the same. Now I settle for less passion and more peace of mind. I ride a good old 4 cylinder Honda.

Good to know they exist. For my own with mine own money, I'd still get the Japanese. Almost the same performance, not nearly the same maintenance. There's a reason why we see old gixxers and Busas made into all kinds of things like dirt bikes or turbo bikes and European bikes find a museum shelf.

They're really great bikes when you can work on them yourselve and you're not dependent on a shop or a dealership.

People take these videos so seriously when it’s clearly tongue in cheek. The Japanese make amazing bikes at every point on the range, if price is completely ignored there are a lot of options in Europe that are best in their category but none by a massive margin and it’s incredibly subjective as soon as you bring price in. If you feel the need to get offended one way or another (or argue in extremes/ absolutes) about which is “better” you need to work on your fragility, it ain’t that deep.

Sorry, you can't beat a Japanese Classic Honda Rebel 🏍 the spoked wheel version that was made for 30 years 1985-2016 in the metric that matters to me most. Hint: It's not speed, it's not power, it's not looks....

For my money the Yamaha MT series of bikes are still better bang for your buck and more reliable. I'm still riding my FZ07 and love it. I'd love to have a Superduke or Streetfighter but can't pull the trigger on that purchase when the MT09 exists.

You know what they say about Euro bikes? You're either riding them or fixing them. Really it's just a matter of taste and $$$. And yeah the Italians really know how to build an exotic looking bikes that sound incredible. They really are beautiful and a work of art. But I'll keep my zx14r thank you.

I started with a Japanese bike as my first bike, have since been all Euro. Started with the CBR500R (it's not THAT bad, c'mon guys) and then moved to a 701 Supermoto and as of a month ago moved on to the KTM 1290 Super Adventure S, just in time for the winter season. lol I love Japanese bikes and in fact did almost go back to Japanese when looking to upgrade from my 701, but that 1290 was just something I had to have and experience. So again I say, c'mon, ADV bikes are great! Loving mine even though I only got 3 rides on it before being put away for winter. Spring is gonna be exciting!!!

Went from a Honda to an Aprilia, and I have ZERO regrets.

For somebody who buys a new bike every year, euro is cool. For someone for whom a bike is one of their most significant fun investments and they plan to ride through 3 or 4 sets of brake pads... Japanese please.

When you got money, you start loving a european motorcycle. And they know exactly whom to sell their motorcycle.

Better at what or in what way, I would ask. Pure performance, feel, beauty, and connection to history goes to euro bikes, but overall ownership experience 100% goes to the Japanese bikes. My euro bikes have been easily more exciting to ride, but FAR more depressing to actually own.

You may be right but japanese bikes are more cost-effective compared to european bikes in the Philippines.

So, the cost of maintenance and value for money for the performance and reliability is not required to make a bike better than another?

Euro bikes are only better when you have money for the maintenance. Most wouldn't take wrench to a bmw or ktm or Ducati not because the complexity but because it will void warranty, also the complexity. Id stick to my 82 honda. My liquid cooled 80° v twin

Here in Europe I can only afford Japanese bikes. Bmw Ducati and Aprilia are out of my reach. Maybe I can afford a triumph, maybe. Never had any issues with Japanese, or been left stranded in the middle of the road.

Basically all ur telling me is buy 90s and 2000s japanese bikes

The question is why did H0nda stop making exotic motorbikes? Because they stopped, these extraordinary motorbikes are now made by other manufacturers, such as the basic design of the RC46 x 2007 RC212V which has now become the P4nigale V4. These amazing motorbikes have actually appeared since the RC series such as NR and RC30 and others. Previously it was considered strange, regulations did not even support V4 engines, only now V4 are popular. This is very late, but now it seems special, only now the regulations realize that this engine is special and the future (now).

yammie noob if your a fanboy just say it, we all know already.

While modern European bikes are awesome (I own one) , no one should forget how the Japanese makes obliterated the British and most other bikes, from the 70’s on. Unit construction, reliability, performance and they even had lights that worked! It was a revolution. The Euros had to get their shit together to survive let alone thrive. Luckily for us they have produced the goods but I suggest to you that the Japanese didn’t just innovate, they invented the modern motorcycle template.

If you dont mind your bike leaking oil, not starting, having terminal break downs or cooking your crotch, then sure.

Honourable mention in the euro nakeds is the Benelli TnT 899/1130 (Tornado Naked Tre) designed by Adrian Morton, the bike had a triple cylinder engine, marzochi upside down suspension, brembo brakes and had a very eccentric look

My first bike is a Japanese bike, but my second will almost certainly be a European bike. I need to ride some things and figure out what I like, but a Street Triple and a 916/996 are both high on the list.

Its like rolex. Its wanted because its supply is artificially limited.. Get a european bike if you like the unavailability and high maintenance. Your mechanic is gonna be the happiest, he's gonna spend more time with the bike than you😅

The Monster wasn’t the original naked bike, it was the first to become popular worldwide. the Suzuki Bandit came out in 1989, and that wasn’t Japan’s first naked motorcycle.

If you want style yes, if you want reliability and high maintenance costs no.

They're not better in terms of their value proposition. In fact, I'd say they're incredibly inferior in that regard.

but in all fairness, that's not what motorcycles are bought for. Real estate and stocks are for investing, motorcycles are for the soul and to buy a motorcycle based on logic alone is to betray oneself.

Here’s a comparison, do European cars last 300,000 + without major mechanical failure like Japanese cars? People tend to forget but it’s due to our Influence from the best era of our economy on Japan that helped boost them into the manufacturing market they own today!

Here's a comparison, Europeans aren't tramps who keep a hold of their cars for decades. In the UK people typically get a new car every 1-3 years while in Europe the average is 3-5 years. Only 7% of Europeans wait 10 years to replace a car. Newer models come along and they buy them. Japan are in deep financial trouble right now.

F9 did an amazing episode comparing the build quality of engine blocks. How did Ryan say it…Italians turned a cheek to quality control after their first morning Esspresso.

Coming from two R6 and a Crossplane R1, I just bought a 14 RSV4. Really excited for this season as I never rode an Italian before.

Once you buy an Italian bike, you will never buy anything else again. Everything from BMW to Triumph to Honda feel the same when compared.

I just need a something that gets me from point a to point B I don’t need all this unnecessary competitive nature. What should I get for my first motorbike??

Get a duke 250 or 390 whichever suits you speed requirements and you set for long time👍🏻

Get a 100cc or 125cc daily commuter bike if all your requirement is point A to B. Duke 125 is an option. Or you could get a scooter Yamaha Aerox or something like that.

Are you able to ship to other countries?

Moved from a 21 CBR1000RR which kept tripping a CEL for some reason, to a 23 Aprilia Tuono V4 Factory. No check engine lights and I have some mods done to it, and let me just say it is WAY more fun to ride on the road (I’m sure the RR would be a bit more at home on a track) and the sound of that V4 exhaust is absolutely absurd.

Would love to see a comparison on 125cc bikes on how the old 2 strokes European manufacturers dominated whereas now its japanese and chinese bikes dominating the market, also would love to see your thoughts on my bike hava its a 2001 suzuki intruder VL125 (mines had a few modifications to make it more rider friendly)

0:43 lol, my man, rossi didn't win shit on a ducati 😂

The price points are not comparable. I'm sure if one of the big four wanted to make a 20k bike with all the tec and quality materials they could but they have never needed to.

The 916 is the bike that made me fall in love with motorcyles a very, very, very long time ago...........still just as beautiful

11:11 naked bikes came about after owners modified their crashed Japanese sportbikes to make it rideable again, this is by removing the fairings - they were originally called 'street fighters' after the UK magazine of the same name

as a ducati owner and frequent italy visitor, i can confirm that italien bikes are better than japanese

As a regular pizza eater and pasta lover, I agree with you

When I used a bike to ride to work every day I had a Honda. Now I don't use a bike daily but for summer fun, therefore I have an Italian. When I have bad day at work, I just remember what I have in the garage and the day quickly improves.

I agree to this stance for the street bike categories, but I couldn’t agree less on the dirtbikes.
