I will put things on here that I am not only passionate about but what I believe others might want to view. I am a Blood Biker and I Volunteer delivering Blood and other medical products out of hours. Throughout the Covid period for example (2019-2020) I did somewhere in the region of 7000 miles including Christmas and Boxing Day. The good thing is you don't get to know who we are helping. There are loads of Blood Bikers around the UK, all volunteering. IF ANYONE WANTS TO DONATE, THEN PLEASE LET ME KNOW OR YOU CAN SEARCH, BLOODBIKES IN YOUR AREA TO DONATE.
THANKS TO ANYONE WHO SUBSCRIBES TO MY CHANNEL. I enjoy doing it when I get a chance. Billy.
🤔 if only the reliability & after sales was as good as the as the aesthetics of the bike then KTM would be on to a winner … Sadly not far too unreliable & the warranty issues which you have to fight tooth & nail for .. so it’ll always be German or Japanese … safe riding out there 🏍️👌
I'm 50 and own ninja 650, z1000sx and a CBR1000RR. Can't ride the BCR for more than 30 mins without my neck hurting. Can't take the 650 on long rides because I have to carry a back pack. Z1000sx is the perfect all rounder. Speed, agility and removable panniers.
Actually ok nowadays. All manufacturers over the years have their problems but as they move forward developing new products, then the products become alot better.
KTM is really unreliable because of the race to reduce weight and at the same time increase power - it's always against reliability. There is also a low quality of KTM parts. But the most important thing is that from this generation 1390 the camshaft phase shift system was installed, which further increased the power, but + 1 reason to break down.
Its a great bike,have watched man reviews but im nowhere near 6 ft even so could be an issue. Its the main thing hol me back from getting one truth be known. But its a really impressive bit if kit,love the under seat storage n the twist n go!!
Mine looks even better except head light and cost me £7k less 🙌🏻 10 hp doesn’t wort that amount of money more this isn’t a massive upgrade. Enjoy your bike and let me know when you want to come to ride with me in the north so I can show you that. Is not better than a 1290 🫶
Make the most of these bikes while we still can. Government coming for them and banning sale of petrol bikes from 2040. Joyful bunch aren't they, governments.
Actually is ideal blood bike because anyone can ride it in an emergency where to intended rider were inabled somehow and only available persons who were not able to ride a traditional vike with gears, so all emergency bikes should be automatic
Thanks for the videos on the ADV350,looks like a nice commuter. One thing that does surprise me is the high fuel consumption @ 70mpg imp.I ride a 2020 Suzuki DL650 Vstrom which regularly returns almost exactly the same @ 71 mpg imp,that's with 20% m/way riding @ 70/75mph the rest on A and B roads averaging 50/55mph,my 2010 Honda NT700 Deauville returns a regular 63/65mpg imp on similar rides,up until recently I owned a 2020 Honda CB500X which returned a regular 85mpg imp on similar rides. I'd have expected the ADV 350 to be more economical.
@@BloodBikerBilly Bikes,unlike cars,get better fuel economy when motorways aren't in the riding mix,6 to as much as10mpg better IME.I measure my fuel economy tank to empty then fill at least 3 times,I also find I get a little more mpg by using E5 petrol.
@@BloodBikerBilly Your video was the reason and convinced me to take a closer look at this scooter. I was lucky and my local dealer had the same one in the color gray that you have. It's very comfortable to sit on and I've driven a Honda Fireblade before... and have enough of it. I'm too old and want to sit upright 😅 Thanks for your video. Greetings from south Germany
@lashemandsplashem, All bloodbike groups are volunteers. They don't get paid whether you are a rider, driver or controller. You just give time. Contact your local bloodbike group. You can search for it online.
@mrmuttly22, its good of you to think about helping. Just so you are aware if you're not already that all Bloodbikes are volunteers. No paid work. You just give your time.
Well deserved.. Happy new year .. keep up the good work boss... was thinking about getting into your line of work... how would I go about getting in? Hope you enjoyed your fry up
Bought it 2022 yr. But i have a problem with the switch and ignition. Sometimes with ignition on and stand up etc.the bike doesnt start. and sometimes I can't turn the switch all the way left to put the steering lock on. Its so annoying.
That's the idea. The fact that when I was walking bike back to let motorhome pass, I put my foot down and road gave way. if you look the bike falls to the side and the barrier saved me and bike from falling over the side.
I am 61 and find the bike easy to ride. My legs occasionally go numb because of the position. I noticed if I just stand at red lights once in a while I am good for a few hours.
