I have recently been getting blue screens on my computer due to a hard drive fault, (now replaced). You put me in a panic for a few seconds there with that blue screen in your video. Nice review, thank you...

After your review and a test drive, I bought one yesterday. I was never so sure about a purchase before, thanks Cager

i had now 10 hondas out of the 25 bikes.since 1977

hello Cager, very nice review, I did both test drive too, Tracer and Crossrunner. When I tested the Tracer I found a very easy and friendly bike at minimum speed, well balanced and light. The engine of the Tracer is amazing pulls like a bull and the sound.... WHAT A SOUND!!! The Honda on the other hand was so confy that I would have never get down of it. The Honda throttle response is more friendly and if you want to ride with fun you have to use a lot the gearshift to keep the revs over 7000rpm. The Tracer it's a lot of fun also at low rpm range. I think that the Honda should be the choice for a kind of user that will make long holiday trips. It has a lot of storage capacity, two-up is fine, it goes fast on the highway at lower rpms, confy and safe. The Tracer is the best for city commuting, blasts on the hills on saturday and can handle a w.e. out, but it's not ideal for long trips, these, for me, are the main differences.

I agree with that I tested both bikes it depens the the type of rider you are, defenetly the cdkssrunner is also a fun bike with more character

At the start, you talk about how pretty it is... but I can't keep my eyes off the BMW in the back in white / red /gold. Love that color scheme! Yes, please take it easy in the mountains. We want you to be safe!

this is actually my first bike ! and i love it. so confortable and safe. i really think that this is a day to day machine with fun capacities as you explained. great test mate. V

I bought my CB500X after your 2 part review of that model and if I ever change bikes it will be to the VFR800X.What a super awesome bike.By the way,Thankyou for the great review of the CB500X,I love mine and have no plans to change it at the moment

Really enjoyed this review. What an engine the vfr is when the vtec kicks in, and it never fails to put a smile on my face! I have one for two years and even though it hasn’t got the latest electronics it’s traditional set up gives the rider more feeling of what your sitting on.

Thank you for professional and helpful review as always. comparing looks of tracer and crossrunner which one do you think is prettier ?

beautiful twisties and the scenery is gorgeous, bike looks great

CAGER!!!!! HELP!!!!!! I'm getting addicted to your reviews. :D

As always, very fun to watch. Stay Safe!

Good review as always, glad you mentioned wind prorection at the end. Ivthought maybe you were having too much fun to remember. I would choose this over the tracer too, probably because my mate's mt09 scared me to death!! keep up the good work mate, ride safe .

that blue screen xD another great video! I can't wait to do my motorcycle licence this spring :)

I bought the fz07 most because of your awesome review, now I switched to vfr800 and I hope to see you do a review on that bike too!

Awesome review, awesome view :) Btw, I love your laughter :D You really enjoy riding ^^

VFR's are great bikes. Thanks for the review Cager.

Great review, love the vtec howl too.

Great test ride Cager, probably I prefere this instead of the Tracer, more refined and drivable on an everyday commute as well as on a trip with 2 up and luggage. Beautiful road choice for the test ride, sometimes I found myself looking at the panoramas instead of to the bike!

Caaaageeer thanks for this review! I feel in love with the v4 of the crossrunner X, but my brains told me the 900 tracer GT is a better buy. I went with my heart and got the V4, unbeatable engine..

Obrigadinho cager -.- queria mesmo uma vfr1200 no futuro e agora por tua culpa fiquei na dúvida

i loved your review of the NC750x and now this one. I am considering both of the bikes for purchase (i know this one is a lot better but the price is really high), however i am interested in one thing only: comparison of the bike height? how tall are you? is this bike higher than the NC or not. I tried the NC and i can put both my feet down but only with half foot not the whole foot. I am consirned that this one is taller... whats your opinion? thanks

That BMW next to it in the intro looks freaking great. Oh, and I think all VFR Honda's have single sided swingarms.

YES !!!! obrigado. adoro essa mota. ainda não vi o review mas estou a ver agora. :)

hi cager.. i really enjoy you reviews.. can you do a review of the versys 1000 2015.. and how it compare to this

Good review - thanks 😎

Thanks for the review. This season I'll get some test rides on both bikes - VFR and Tracer to judge it personally. As for now I think that Yamaha would be more suitable to my expectations. Your test confirmed my presumptions. Very important factor is the price. Both offer very similar attributes, but €3000 make a difference.

Nice bike. Can please review 2017 or 2018 vstrom 650xt vrs older model and cb500x and other middle weights.

Love the VTEC. 12:30 - Exactly how I explain the behavior of my VFR800 Interceptor, and why it SUDDENLY beasts up :)

Very interesting review. And your accent is perfect for me! (french)

I love the reaction of the people at the beginning The best way to describe a V4 is they have almost a Nascar sound to the exhaust.. There's something about the V4 that makes for a very American racecar-esque sounding exhaust. Now other bikes sound like european sports cars/race cars but both the Honda V4 and Aprilia V4 (RSV4 or Tuono) have a nice cackle and throaty sound to them that sounds more American where 3 cylinder and 4cyl bikes can sound like Jags or F1 cars.

Excelente vídeo!!

hey dude ..i have a question 4 u ...what is the model of your action camera on this video? Thanks!

I like the face of the boy (and the other people :P) on the right at the begin of the video, thinking.... wtf is this guy doing?! Nice ride and review cager! ;)

I never cared for Honda in general, but their V4 are sublime.

Now I'm confused which one I would prefer x.x At least now I know what to except from Honda. Any possibility for Triumph Tiger 800 XC or KTM Adventure (any of it's kind) ? (Thanks again for reviews!)

Fantastic review. At least you showed me it has adjustable suspension. They don't even advertise it on the site (UK) that it has. Have you road tested the Kawasaki Versys 1000? It's going to be a choice of this or that for me...

Great review Cager and sensible comparison, though the Yamaha Tracer to me seems the more exciting ride and sound.

you are the best cager! if you can, review the mash seventy five! thank and byee

Very nice video. Thanks!

Love your reviews, Cager! Any chance that you can test a Kawi Z800? :)

Very nice bike bro...i wish i could have this one too..good review also..tc.

what make different between mercedez with toyota? the level of comfort.... from the engine, seat, the vibey.. honda offer the upper level comfort...

Great review, as always, I liked it, but for that price, I still prefer the Triumph Tiger 800XC or the Super Tenere XT1200Z

I totally agree with you on the center stand.. especially for a dual sport bike like that. My 2001 VFR800 has one and i use it quite often for maintenance and other other reasons.. Is there one available as an option???

DAT sound... Beastly!

This V4 is a much more updated version of the original V4 from the VFR 750, somewhat tame compared to the 750 I used to own and tuned to 115 BHP! It was a 1989 superfast machine, low center of gravity and like taking off in a jet! I loved the sound of the engine, a bit more raughty than yours, I could easily have killed myself several times, since the power was too tempting. None of the group I ride with could catch me, so I just had to calm things down with an 850 TDM instead! Still, I may still consider this to ad to my 56 moto ownership history, since I am feeling the need for a little touring in Thailand where I live! It's now June 2021, so how's your bike now after 6 years plus?

The laughter when the vtec kicks ...

Great review. Dear Honda; PLEASE bring this bike to the USA. I need VTEC in my life.

What Intercom do you use?

The button at minute 17:00 is for the fog lights, but your test bike does not have them installed.

Hi Cager. It's always a pleasure to see your tests. I only want to add the information that this engine work with 2 valves since I'm not sure if to 4.000 rpm or 6.000 rpm, over this line than it work with 4 valves per piston at full power, for a better fuel economy. I think that's why the bike result so smooth at the start and low revs.

...very cool Video, thanks!!

Sightful road. Reminds me of Plominka in Croatia.

Malaysia is full with Versys and Tracers. Hope dis bike would make his way here.

Oh ... the sound before the VTEC kicks in is soooo sweeet :) It would be cool if you could take a look at the Versys 650 ...

Yeah it doesn't sound like the smoothest thing in the universe... I guess I'll have to ride one to make my mind... 1st gen Versys can be had for quite a reasonable amount of money which is unfortunatelly one of the factors for me... I've read somewhere that parallel twins emit only the positive vibrations ;) So perhaps yours is broken;)) (just kidding:)) Thanks for the opinion !:)

A little comment on acceleration, when you turn the ignition key on, machine starts with the highest Torque control (2nd level) means the lowest power , which is typical Honda safety. Wants people to ride safely so if you need a ride like tracer you have to change it everytime you switch the ignition on.

Why didn't Cager buy this bike instead of the Tracer 700 !!!???

Hello Mr. Cager! If it is possible please make a Kawasaki Versys 1000 review. I cannot really decide what to get in this category and the Versys 1000 costs exactly the same in my country as this Crossrunner. I'm going to testride the Crossrunner in a few weeks, not sure if it is possible to test the Versys 1000. The Tracer is not an option for me because of it's terribly uncomfortable seat I could easily feel when I got on it in a showroom.

Had the Versys my main criticism would be the chain adjustment, it's a pain. If I go back to chain it will be a single swinging arm for ease.

Hi Cager, would love to see a honda vfr 800 test ride. Very few helpful reviews so far. If you've already done one please share the link. Ride safe bro!

the honda cbf 125 has a center stand and this 12k bike does not.........??????

Cager!! Versys 650 2015....pls

The MT09 Tracer has the worst suspension i have ever tried on a stock bike. Its SO bad that when you hit higher speeds, it wobles like crazy! I would get the Honda any day between those to

Hi Cager! Thanks for the video. Do you have info about fuel consumption? Keep riding Bro!

what a beautiful road

It runs put of revs at almost exacrly 12k rpm. Power, however, does taper off around 10k.

This is more of a gentleman's bike (like most Hondas) compared to the the FJ09 (Tracer).

I Love your Reviews. But... would you be please so kind to test the new Kawasaki Versys 1000 2015?!?? That would be great, if you would do this in a comparison to the V Strom 1000 and the Honda VFR1200X Crosstourer. THX and ride save! Greetings from Germany

Cager why does BMW use its engine blocks as frame slider??? :D

Great upload as always. Btw, heated grips w/o hand guards is pointless in my opinion. The worst cold is the one that hits the front of your hands and finger tips. What's the point of just keeping the insides of your hands warm?

G'day Cager! Mate I'm looking in this segment and like this bike, the Tracer and the Aprilia Caponord. Right now in Australia I can buy a new Tracer for about $14,800, a Crossrunner for about $13,500 and the Capo Strada for about $16,000 or the touring version with ADD, CC, paniers and centre stand for about $17000. These prices are all on the road, ride away. What would you or anyone else reading go for? Stay safe, stay upright. Thanks Charlie.

Hello there if you want to spend the amount of 17k why you dont look for the crosstourer? It will be more expensive but it worth it :)

If Honda can shave off about 30KG from the weight then it becomes a bit more comparable with the Tracer, perhaps! And with that weight it is a beast to commute on a regular basis, especially in congested city traffic!

VTEC just kicked in :D best Scene
