...Update ? BV350ST AND HORNET 900 FOR SALE ! 

Fingers crossed for a solid recovery mate 👍🏻

...yes, once again a big THANK YOU for all your good wishes , and in particular Tony Kitchen who GAVE me his ActionCam which I am using to film this...the same model that I have been using for 10 years over the 900+ videos ! Dave Wade the GoldWing 1200 local rider too, who has been to visit a few times and even did a few errands for me . Thank you gentlemen.

Get well soon, Steve. Hope you're feeling better by summer ☀️.

Thanks for the update its always nice to hear from you Steve. Wishing you all the best in your recovery.

Steve, i think a lot of youtubers have been worried about you and still are. Hang on in there my friend, you'll be back on the hornet soon.

...if anyone is still watching this - is anyone interested in buying BOTH bikes ? The BV350ST has done 11,500 miles and is from 2016 , and the Hornet 900 has done 6000 ish miles - and is from 2002 ! Extras include soft blue Oxford panniers and a big blue Givi box with side rail kit .

....I'm due a CT Scan and an appointment 'check up' back with my surgeon at the huge Blackburn hospital on the 17th ....so we'll see what's going on with my insides ....I hope !

Was only thinking about you last week, been watching for years. Anyway hope you get better mate and back on the bike in the summer.

...yes, BLOCKED on X-Twitter by both John Lennon's son in NYC - Sean Lennon ...AND Paul McCartney's brother in Heswall....for asking for generous donations to help a Liverpool Cafe ....website is here at www.papercupproject.org ...who GIVE the local homeless people FREE hot meals and brews , in return for our donations. The Cafe closes on Mondays now...due to shortage of funds ....so WHERE are the extra donations from 'celebrities' , footballers , other pop stars with ££££££ ?! The world's richest man is that Louis Vuitton bloke - £300,000,000,000 , 300 billion ..while Oprah Winfrey has a mere 2,000,000,000 ....two billion - yet those African kids in the tv appeals are still starving / going blind / drinking dirty water etc etc !?!

Good to hear from you and hope your getting better, Seems the older you get the more recovery you need. Keep strong and soon be on them bikes.

Hi Steve I’ve had a few subscribers asking about you I’ll try and get up in a couple of weeks to visit some people make me feel sick I definitely ring you tomorrow 🙏

Steve Thanks for the update. Really sorry to hear that you’re no better, mate. It’s good that Youle’s will take the scooter back and give you some cash for it, that should help a bit. Have a word with your energy supplier, they may be able to help with your bill, when they hear that you are so vulnerable. Might pop in sometime soon but I’ll ring first. All the best John hoyhoy

Hope you get well Steve, you're a motorcycle legend. Hope your legs get better and hopefully you'll be back on the bike some day!

Good to sithi back fella.. Been through the wars there pal, Harwooders are made from tuff stuff.. hope you get back on a bike soon..

Hi Steve. I really hope you get well soon. I watch all of your videos and miss them. 🙏🙏🙏

Nice to see ya back Steve hope your on the mend mate

Good to hear from you steve Hope your getting Better mate getting so worried. Not hearing from you.

....yup - my Dad MET Muhammed Ali at a book signing session at Edinburgh's Waterstones bookshop in about 1990 !! ALWAYS get a 'selfie' if you meet a celebrity hero....I DIDN'T when I met Paul McCartney and George Harrison in the 90's ....twerp ! The only other one I've met is Carl Fogarty .....and Nick Sanders , though his bike series ended ages ago.

...flat caps on the right , and a Peaky Blinders style one - AND a John Lennon style one !! I wish I'd started wearing them years ago....very cheap from e-bay ....wool mix or even all wool , British made - for less than 15 quid ! The John Lennon one is Chinese though, but top quality with a red lining .

stevenrutter6@gmail.com - but only IF you've enjoyed watching some of my 900 videos over the past ten years ! I know a few go on a bit ...but the scenic ones and my paddling at Blackpool , classic car shows , steam rallies , Lake District about 6 times ....er....er....must be worth a quid or three !??!

Its criminal,!! work most if life need some care and help and you get nowt, boils me ...... Any hoo, hope your comfortable and take your meds.

...THANK YOU to the kindhearted people who have donated ...I'd send you a spare flat cap if I could as BEFORE my current financial crises with sky-high fuel bills I'd bought the caps to keep my head warm after a rather severe haircut when a local barber came to my house to do it.

Hi Steve. Posted before but vanished. You should be able to claim PIP and ESA. Your local Citizens Advice can help and also with the forms. They also have a debt team who'll negotiate with your creditors with payments you can afford. Your local council social services may help with home care while you're ill. I volunteered at the advice service. There is help out there. It's there for people such as you.

....at 14:25 - if YOUR old lounge carpet has faded to grey....get a box of 24 marker pens and fill in 2 square metres at a time ....er....and eventually the whole carpet will be a nice BLUE again , saving ££££ ! Green or Red too ....not nessercelery BLUE ....it's up to you .

...my old mum came this morning , and changed the dressing I'd made up from a hospital issued big 'nappy' the night before - and ANOTHER giant water blister has appeared - yikes ! She brought a load of bandages and wipes with anti-biotic stuff on and made a nice job of it ! We should ALL make sure we have a good First Aid box in our homes for emergencies !! Hopefully a nurse will explain about , and sort out my swollen legs / feet blisters problem out at the Hospital on Wednesday ....2 people DIED in the 'waiting room' there last week , it was on the local news ....it's ...'the busiest A & E Department in the country'....the news report said .

...oh dear - MORE abuse ....don't forget that it's only if you have enjoyed my ten years of uploads ...over 900 of 'em. A LOT of them crap....but some nice days out at interesting events which I hope you've been inspired to visit after watching....Skipton Castle , Samlesbury Hall from 1320 , Trough Of Bowland , Tan Hill Inn , BLACKPOOL !!? Thanks you again to the 7 kind people who have helped with the £3000 gas and leccy bills since November to April....thank goodness Spring is here....almost .

Hi Steve it's been a long time since I last saw your channel. Are you selling a ped?

Blimey you have been through the mill , am so sorry, surely you should be getting visits from home help/ social workers and definitely PIP? Get your family to claim what youre entitled to and the energy bills are disgusting! You are right the world has gone mad 😒

You might get more from someone on here for bike. I would def have given more for YBR.

....' 'derrrrrrr - it's all ME ME ME ME with you innit ?'' ....after asking why he hadn't visited my place for a brew and a nice chat....and a pocket watch Christmas prezzie for him !? YET the so called biker brothers meet up less than TWO miles away every Wednesday in a pub ! ME ME ME ME....?....WELL , it was ME ME ME wot DONATED all those leathers and boots !!!

...yikes - another huge water blister appeared on my foot overnight ! Called the doctors and they said a nurse would come from Burnley , ten miles away ...but my old mum came and got dressings from the chemist and bandaged my up ....THEN when she left - two nurses arrived and took her dressings off any I'm now bandaged up to my knee and they said they'll come back on Thursday....the day after my hospital appointment with my surgeon on Wednesday. I'd planned on putting a couple of shelves up today after taking lotsa painkillers too !

....bugger - my daftphone just rang 20 minutes ago ...it's not a 'Smartphone' it was twenty quid from Argos...and it was Youles Motorcycles bike shop...they can only offer £1500 for the 2016 Super Scooter ...my Piaggio BV350ST with 11,000 miles on it. They have a LOT of bikes in stock at the moment ready for the new 'nice weather' season ...so it's understandable I suppose. I DID consider asking for their offer on BOTH the scooter and my Hornet, which would clear my debts completely maybe , and prevent the bailiffs coming from Lloyds and Barclays...but I told the sales manager I'd let him know in a while and AFTER my ct scan ....if I'm gonna pop me clogs they CAN buy both bikes off me !

Dunno what happened to my comment, Steve. It mysteriously disappeared. I hope my PayPal contribution hasn't done the same. "Not a lot" as Paul Daniels used to say, but I'm on a fixed income myself nowadays. But every little helps. It's the most I could do financially at present, but the least I could do for all the wonderful rides you've brought me along on through my old stomping grounds. Sending Good, Good, Good, Good Vibrations to you from California.

....IF you're not happy with this 'begging' video....which I agree would be understandable from a certain angle , seeing as many people are struggling with huge bills in modern day Britain and many are worse off than me , BUT IF you have enjoyed my ten years of video uploads - then PLEASE donate instead to your local AIR AMBULANCE as each launch of the helicopter costs a fortune and of course they rescue bikers who've had accidents in remote spots like the Yorkshire Dales ! My last smash was when I was exhausted and not paying attention between Leyburn and Hawes in July 2020 after a very long rideout with Mr. Bannister of Blackpool . If you're tired , STOP and have caffeine ...Coca-Cola...?...or SOMETHING to wake you up - or don't set off in the first place on a 200 mile 'winding roads' rideout as it's asking for trouble. I was distracted by exhaustion - and the lovely views , on a busy A road with warning signs about 'bike accidents' there as we left Leyburn ....

....a couple of trolls have been deleted - but please ONLY donate IF YOU have enjoyed watching SOME of the 900+ videos I've uploaded over 10 years !!! I KNOW I shouldn't be 'begging' seeing as a lot of people are in similar positions with our disgustingly sky-high fuel prices - 'gas & leccy' ...or even worse off than me, but like us giving to people on the streets - it isn't compulsary , and the homeless are usually ignored when they ask ...'any spare change mate' ?! So, ONLY give a donation IF I've entertained you a bit over the years ....I used to tell jokes or sing a bit or go to the Steam Fairs and Classic Vehicle shows ...so at least a few video uploads on here are worth giving me a quid for ! IF I ever get better , and get a job - I'll donate to the Air Ambulance again , I donated £150 about 6 years ago after some kind soul paid half my bill at Accrington's JENNINGS bike shop who did a big job on my Hornet costing £300+ ....but SOMEONE had phoned them up and paid £150 from the bill !!! I was deeply touched and choked back tears in the bikeshop - BUT when I was 55 and found I was entitled to get my 'serps pension' - I got a load of cash out , paid off my 6 creditcards - then donated £150 to the collection box at Youles Motorcycles for the local Air Ambulance , as they flew out to local lad Paul King who had just had his terrible collision and unmentionable horrific aftermath - which I wont mention here. Youles offered £1500 for my Piaggio BV350ST yesterday ....2016 with 11,500 miles on - the SAME mileage as when I bought it a YEAR ago for £3200 !!! Do YOU think I should accept it anyway and pay a chunk off my fuel bill total ? I don't do direct debit with Octopus Energy - I make a 'one off payment' after every monthly meter reading on the 5th day of the month , I send the reading via e-mail...and pay on my credit card - but now the warmer weather is here , they should charge a LOT less next month !?!

...yup, my appointment this afternoon confirmed that the painful lump IS an intestinal hernia and will require an operation ...but not while I'm so run down as there's more of a risk of infection . My mum kindly accompanied me to the hospital via a taxi , as she wanted to ask the surgeon about a number of things which she'd written down , but the chap wasn't the actual surgeon as he was busy in the theatre - saving people's lives . The porters and nurses were very helpful as usual . No CT scan ...it's scheduled in SIX months time !?! THEY all deserve a pay rise as we all know ...but as for 'donations' for me - PLEASE understand it's for my TEN years of videos that I've uploaded IF you've enjoyed them and want more when I'm better !! A big THANK YOU again , to the 7 people so far who have contributed since I posted this 'update' ! I'll do a daylight one while wearing my helmet as soon as I'm out of pain....I managed to put a shelf up last night ...after it was bought 5 months ago ...chipboard, but nice to put little socket sets on etc with the handles out - so they don't drop on my head from the kitchen cupboards where they were before !!

Hello Steve. Been watching ‘Airsoft Ollie’ who has cancer and has a ‘Thank You’ button. If you had one too I’d be happy to make a contribution to help out.

....that VERY painful egg sized hernia...?...eased off when I led in bed....it seems to fill up , then drain away - a male nurse in hospital said it was a testicle moving up ....er - WHAT , 3 testicles...?...he didn't even look , as my two spuds were there in my scrotum when the lump was there and visible about my pubic bone , hurting like hell....then if I draw my knees up to my chest , it drains off slowly and disappears !

....'LIVID'...?!! SO was I when I was called a ...'F*ckin' Pr*ck' for asking him to write a telephone number down , for killing the Yuasa battery , for not starting the bikes once a week, for letting corrosion set in , for parking the bikes in the wrong place , for not putting the new bike covers on , for not fitting the new battery charging lead , for not putting two screws in the new light fitting , for the laptop confusion - there's nothing wrong with it now it's on the cooling platform...rather than ALL that way away - er, 50 feet !! I could go on ...for another hour ...but can do without any '' Idiocracy '' ! KEYS ?...yup, I'll have them back too . Changing my will to help the homeless either in Blackburn or Liverpool when I pop my clogs instead , might be better then , eh ?

...another deletion - yes, I know all about the comedic elements in your entertaining and witty London videos - however refusing to go to a biker themed bike museum / bar / restaurant just because YOU think they're all 'beardy poseurs and ponces who told you off for having a noisy exhaust ' and consequently you'll '...never go there again' .....is just childishly silly - GROW UP ! UNLESS you weren't being serious....and it was another joke , as personally I'd PROMOTE the place by doing lot's of visits and videos praising the old bikes there and the food menu and decor and location in Shoreditch - then demand a FREE meal for your efforts ! I TRIED this with Youles Motorcycles , suggesting they give me a job as a test rider of their stock and I'll upload them as ten minute 'town and country' tests and commentary about the particular bike I'm sat on ....BUT the bossman thought I was a 'big head' by offering such an idea - but it was a jokey suggestion , not a bragging sort of idea - but I WOULD HAPPILY DO IT !!!

...oh dear - keys returned ? Good ! YOU DID disappear two weeks ago , after just 5 minutes - because biker pal Tony Kitchen arrived....without any Rum Truffles for you ....is that why you left ...yes, after 5 minutes ?!!! You work 2 minutes away....if the roles / situation ...{ie YOU were very ill and run down and with limited mobility and in pain} ....were reversed , and you lived alone , I'd visit you every day , {just to check you weren't unconscious on the floor after a fall , having banged your head}...for a brew and a pleasant chat . Sadly, you always seem moody and deeply unhappy - it must be those stressful holidays in Montenegro ...try Blackpool instead , or is it those drunken nights out at The Swan with loud headbanging AC/DC music ....?

Type your paypal here. I hope it was yours I just sent £50 to LOL.
