After videoing two italian bikes he walks straight past a lovely looking Ariel Square Four Special to view some nondescript japanese bikes. Do you no what it was pillock.
Each bike has its own “combination” (think lock) for getting the kicked/ticked over. That’s been my observation. Note to self: Is the petcock petrol/ ⛽️ gas in the On position? 😅
@@chrisrobinson8980 Good to know! in America I usually have to take a highway to get to the scenic roads, where a 350 putt putt is what I'm looking for. American roads pretty much demand 'big enough to not be buffeted off the road at 75mph'. Lots of long, straight, 60-70mph highways between the scenic areas. I love the design and the character. With all the mods, the bike is a hobby unto itself.
I just replaced my primary case drain plug washer and no more leak. I've got a scruffy 1951 Thunderbird 650 that was/still is painted like yours. Black frame, forks and headlight nacelle but the rest of the sheetmetal is blue. Most guys say they were all blue or all black. What do you say? 🤔 I rebuilt motor and gearbox but keeping paint the way it is. Thank for sharing.
Here in the UK all rigid frame T'birds were finished in blue all over. Some US models were finished in all black as the blue was not popular. A previous owner of my bike changed the colour scheme to T100 spec many years ago. It would be a crime to re paint back to original finish.
The reason why is that our Ducati display was a representation of the model’s available in 1974 in celebration of the Ducati owners club fiftieth anniversary 👌
Deader than dead, through greedy gate prices and caterers. Give it another 3 years, (if you are lucky) and it will vanish just like the Great Dorset Steam Fair did.
What's More Fun Than Looking At Bikes You've Owned, Ridden Or Wanted!?! You Guys Are So Lucky! You Have Bike Shows That Aren't Just About Harleys. Thank You.
Had the same model now for two years . Twice the Soul and Character of the Kawasaki 900 I had before. Pure joy to ride . And yes you can tour no problem . Just at a less frantic pace which I love
Hi there i work for MISUk ltd Thank you for showing our stand in such detail, we are based in Newark and if you wish to see more bikes like you saw on our stand please feel free to visit our showroom unit 4 Brunel drive Newark, your more than welcome. 👍
No regrets as such. You have to adjust your expectations when riding. I live in a hilly area and the bike does struggle to get up some of the hills into a headwind. I have nearly 3000 miles on the clock now and the engine has loosened up now so it is running at its best. The bike does everything perfectly and looks great.
It’s a terrible quality video with the sun flashing through the trees. Bought it in March this year and done over 2800 miles now. Love your videos. You have a great selection of Enfield.
what a good start, most of everything is there already. i will enjoy watching how you fare. a friend of mine had one of these and it was as dependable as could be. i hope that you have a great deal of fun and laughter as you progress !!
