Dude!!!! Do you know how rare those El Diablo's are????? I heard they are only releasing 1600 in the entire USA and they will mostly be snapped up before they hit the floor. Buy it, sit on it for a few years and sell it to a rich American for a hefty profit. EDIT: I was wrong Harley is only making 1500 period. Total

Thank you Freddie and Monika for my Sunday morning ‘fix’, always a great way to start the day. I’m not sure about the whole Harley Davidson love affair, or at least not for you and Monika. You both have a very unique ‘style’ that you bring to your work and it is a huge part of what makes you both so appealing. You don’t need to buy into a product to get style because you already have it. To me, HD’s never look at home on the beautiful winding mountain roads that we have all over Europe, they look overdressed, overweight and we’ll out of their element. Where they do look at home is on the oversized highways and city strips of the US. I know many will disagree, but for me they look like they are always trying much too hard to say “look at me, I’m so stylish” and by doing that they become the exact opposite. True style is subtle and always understated. The Fiat 500 exudes style, particularly with 200K on the clock! Keep up the great work F&M.

You're right about Biker Cafes, in Spain they are quite sparse when compared to Englaterra! There is a large biking community in Spain who do meet up on weekends and Holidays. You will have noticed that we acknowledge each other when passing. It being easier because it's the clutch hand we use. The Ace Cafe and/or the 59 Club were quintessentialy British lifestyle hangouts of the late fifties and the sixties Rocker era ...

I realise that this is a two month old video, but here goes...... Great video Freddie and Monika as ALWAYS!!! And on your point at 0:45s, I have visited over fifty countries on five continents and sadly I have still not found ANYWHERE that has the wonderful biking and cafe culture that London has with the likes of the Bike Shed Moto in Shoreditch and Bolt Motorcycles etc... We have nothing like that sadly, down here in sunny Australia. My biking friends and I usually just go to regular cafes, but often to the disapproving looks of the pretentious coffee snobs in Melbourne, Australia. Very sad. I am very envious of the London biking and cafe culture. Much respect to the Brits for this!

Freddy, I get it, I rode a Sportster S and a Nightster a the ABFestival, and went from “I’m definitely not interested” to “well that was interesting” and on to “I could definitely see myself on a Harley” in about 45 minutes…… You’re right about the appeal, it’s more than the bikes, it’s a style thing, and HD’s just have “it”. Cool coffee shop as well.

The only intimidating thing about a Harley is the price, love the spoiler, how well Monica knows you Freddie. I've had 2 Harley's and wouldn't have a 3rd, they just aren't value for money but I do love the sound they make. Yes you were correct about the one percent originating from an AMA comment in 1947 in Hollister. Great video, caught it early I'm up to go to the NEC Motorbike show today.

My wife and I hired an Electra Glide in Los Angeles for a 3 week tour. The bike weighed 350 kilos before any luggage,rider and passenger got on. I can tell you it certainly was intimidating especially on the gravel parking areas they have over there. I'm 5ft 8 and when it was rolling along it was great but maneuvering at slow speed was very tricky indeed. Maybe I should have rented something else

I just looked at a Nightster yesterday. I’ve recently been very attracted to the whole Triumph and RE lineups, but I must say that I see the attraction to HD and the showroom experience you get when visiting a dealership. All of that chrome and rock and roll really is emotional and plays to the little kid in me. I get it. I get it.

A fact I learned recently, the only Ace Cafe which is actually really profitable is the one in Lucerne Switzerland. They are also completely independent and not part of the whole Ace franchise. Such a shame that some of the others have already closed again, it could have been a awesome chain of cool biker hangouts.

As I mentioned before I envy the bike culture in the UK . The closest thing we have where i live ( The Jersey shore } are bike nights at certain dealerships and bars . I have had five Harley's over the 50 years that I have been riding . I now ride Indian only because it's a comfort thing for me . But i do have to say Harley's are a work of art on two wheels . The new Indians are real beauties but they are not the same . Thank's to you and Monica for another great video cheers

You'll have to get yourself a leather vest and some chaps for automatic entry into the HD community. I don't share the love I'm afraid. It just seems to be all about money. Big money, for heavy chunks of steel which can be comprehensively out-performed by European and Japanese bikes at half the price. An Electra-Glide or Road King for a touring holiday across the US I can understand (HD might sponsor you and Monika to do this - would make a great series) but the rest of the HD brigade seems a bit pointless. I imagine COVID killed off the Ace Cafe Barcelona, as it has so many other businesses. Good film, even if I don't often agree with you, I still enjoy your work! Good luck.

Lots of beautiful Harley's at the NEC motorcycle live event yesterday. I, like you, long for a speedmaster to pair with or replace my bonneville. However, I can't help but be drawn in by the Harley's. I'm also over 6ft and feel I look a little big on the speedmaster. Whereas when sat on a sport glide or the like, their size feels more appropriate. Like you point out, the low seat height makes them feel manageable. That said, you would need feet forward controls to avoid your knees being up by your chest.

Freddy have you ridden the Heritage Classic. I just traded in my 2017 Street Glide for a 2022 Heritage. I was so surprised with the lightness and the handling of this Heritage. It is the sweetest cruiser/light touring bike that I have ever ridden and I have ridden a lot of bikes over the 45 years, that I have been riding. I owned my Street Glide special for over 5 years and only put 8.2K's on it. I plan on doing this amount on the Heritage in 2023 alone. I have several bikes and might sell my 2018 sportster now, because it is a redundant bike now.

Freddie, why don’t the pair of you rent a Harley for a week (at least a weekend!) when the weather warms up next year ? That’ll help fulfill that childhood dream, at least it’s off your list for the time being. A few years ago there was a Hells Angel documentary on German Tv where in one certain chapter there was only one guy with a motorcycle license. They move mainly around on American pickups and cars over here was stated. Those wonderful features Monika and you create are helping me get through quarantine, Big hugs and best greetings;-)

Freddie I get it my friend I am an old guy now and am exactly the same if I was there I would find it so tempting to come out with a bike and there is a real danger I could throw caution to the wind and buy one .I have a bike and a project but still need to finish on a Harley 😁. This is without doubt my favorite channel guys gotta be said .Your very correct a diamond is ONLY worn buy an MC member without doubt and that is as it should be .👌👍

I visited a Harley Davidson showroom recently in Aruba, thing is I can't remember there being any bikes on display, just tee shirts and other tat, I mean accessories.

It's funny you saying you think it's strange to want to go to a Street Glide from a Bonneville, Cause I did the exact opposite, I actually swapped my 2016 Street Glide Special for a 2020 Bonneville T120 Bud Ekins. 🤣🤣

If you want a Harley and think of Monica on the pillion it's got to be a bagger. I'd go for a low mileage used Road King. Comfort and style without all the uneccessary junk saving a bit of weight. You'd get a good one for around £10,000.

I can sort of see the appeal re the Harleys, a couple of their bikes look good, that new sportster for example and they are very good on the whole community thing.

That's a nifty looking pad on your left shoe to protect it from the gear shift pedal. Leather? And who makes it?

Thanks- it’s from Throttlesnake and it is leather (the same company that make the yellow gloves that I usually wear). It’s just a small company but their products are very good🙂👌🏻

Harley Davidson does marketing and branding better than anyone in the business. They know their customer base and know how to appeal to their emotions. People get HD tattoos for heavens sake. My brother stopped off at a dealership last week to look at some bikes out of curiosity and they sent him home with all sorts of complimentary HD branded goodies. You get the high end retail experience that no other companies can compare.

Hi Freddie! I hear you about biker culture places. You should really check out Hermanus biker bar in Bruges, Belgium. Maybe even make it into a motorcycle trip for the distinguished gentlemens ride next year. Feel free to send a pm and I’ll hook you up with some good places to stay in and around Bruges (totally worth a trip).

These electric bikes look very tempting- they’re so stealth👌🏻 A cafe racer electric bike is exactly what we need in the market, I love the sound of this!😀

I inspect and MOT test Taxi's in the UK , most are showing 250 to 450,000 miles so you may have plenty of driving miles left. City driving is a lot harder on a car than long distance runs.
