I made it 16 seconds in.

Then again, I'm not into the whole "lets talk while riding a motorcycle" genre of videos.

Some of the worst vlogs I've seen are the ones that spew political or religious views in an "instructional video." If you want to teach people how to do something, I highly doubt those two topics are needed to address the subject matter. To me, vlogs have come and gone in a manner similar to Myspace, music games (guitar hero), and first person shooters; they were a novel idea at one point, but over saturation killed them.

Oh my God. Clutch in on every corner. Holding engine speed at 8000 rpms and 22mph max. Telling people why um, so, like, yeah, the um, CBR is um, a better beginner bike. "Because it shifts smoother." How would he know?

How about putting some of the effort it takes into recording and posting a v-monologue into learning how to ride a bike first? Maybe record a day on the MSF course for a start?

With all that huffing and puffing, you'd think he were pedaling the **** thing too!

Please do not allow people with no riding or communication skills to post here. This is by far the worst example ever. Please delete this video.

For the love of all things simple....filing the fuel tank? Geeze.
Funny in fact that's your first post...

And I'm sure the OP has no password to the vlogger's youtube account, so your request to delete the video is likely denied...

Mind numbing. Couldn't sacrifice any more seconds I will never get back so bailed on watching the whole thing. The dude is taking a risk comparing the Ninja with the ceebee as he never rode the Ninja. All cred is blown. Don't get the point of this vlog...at all! :confused:

For me that applies to 99.99999999% of all motovlogs out there. mordeth13 practically invented the format of "babble to the camera while riding", and became famous mostly because of his antics, such as dancing in all his gear or eating a full mcdonalds meal including strawberry shake without taking his helmet off (and without actually eating most of it). Then, suddently 12,363,912 wannabes popped up who could do nothing but the "babble to the camera while riding" nonsense.

Sure, there are probably a few good ones out there... but if I stumble upon one of their vids, I'm likely to shut it off as soon as they start yacking.

Let the bike do the talking, it's far more eloquent.

Made it through about 30 seconds, thinking the whole time "this is what it would be like if they mounted a GoPro on top of a bobble-head doll...only the doll would be more interesting to listen to"

LOL...as my Mom used to say "It is better to keep your mouth shut and say nothing than to open it and remove all doubt". I shd probably follow that advice more closely:eek:

Vlog-Dude shd also consider that timely advice as well:rolleyes:

"I've never ridden a ninja before, so I don't know what it's like... But I heard..."
Click.

OMG. The video is titled CBR250r vs. Ninja 250, yet he utters that sentence right there. And he likes the Honda better because "it has better financing."

Seeing him hold the revs so high reminds me of that scene in Dogma where Jay and Silent Bob drove the car at 90 mph and blew up the engine because they didn't realize they were driving a stick shift.

Ok... so.. after having heard others talk of the idiocy that I cannot get past on my own accord... It is now time to force myself to see what crap is spewing from this guy's mouth.

Wish me luck. I may never be the same after this...

"I tried to get away from him" - I started laughing like a mad man.

Then... "If you'd like me to do any gear reviews" - YES, Please review 2nd gear!

I know why he's UPSHift Zero, cuz he doesn't!

Yes, which caused him to *gasp* shift to 2nd, after which he had to slow down so he could go back to 1st!
