Frontier Tank 200 GY6 Scooter from Queens to New Jersey via GW Bridge
Переглядів 2,2 тис.8 місяців тому
Today I am taking the scooter on a ride from Maspeth, Queens over to a lovely park road that runs for 12 miles along the side of the Hudson River, in New Jersey. There aren't any leaves on the trees yet, but the day was warm, the ride was a lot of fun, and I hope you'll enjoy the ride with me. I'm still trying to perfect the camera mounting angle on the helmet (not there yet) and I'm still lear...
2022 RE Himalayan - Quest for Doxsees! Ride from Queens, NY to Jones Beach via Lido Beach.
Переглядів 1048 місяців тому
NOTES: I hadn't noticed that image stabilization had switched off and the camera was in another (non stabilized) mode. Also, the helmet chin mount was tilted back as far as it would go, but that wasn't sufficient - I've since redone the mounting hardware and get better results. I've also since bought an external microphone, and so as my experience in taking footage and producing videos grows, i...
1000 mile review of my 2023 Frontier Tank 200 GY6 Scooter
Переглядів 7 тис.8 місяців тому
Likes and Dislikes - this is not a riding video, that will come later. Thought I would do a walkaround, and a bit of show and tell for the Tank 200 Scootz. If you have one of these, leave a comment! There are very few videos of this one (in particular the 168cc carbureted engine code 161QMK), could be an opportunity to share some knowledge and maintenance tips.
Picking up my brand new 2022 Royal Enfield Himalayan and riding it home to Queens, from Brooklyn NY.
Переглядів 6 тис.Рік тому
Today I brought home my 2022 Royal Enfield Himalayan. I had purchased it back in Feb but I was still post-spine-surgery, so I was unable to take delivery until now. The dealership is "Brooklyn Mayd" in Brooklyn, NY, they were only about 20 minutes away from where I live. It's important to me to have a dealership nearby, as things come up and work needs to be done on the bike, at least I can get...
Franny & Me - Two-up on the CT125 - Manitoulin Island, Misery Bay back to South Shore
Переглядів 171Рік тому
This video documents the return trip with my wife and I, from Misery Bay back to the cottage on Central Manitoulin's South Shore. A friendly stranger had provided some good advice on how to avoid and bypass the soft fresh gravel section we had run into on the way out to Misery Bay, which we gladly accepted and followed. It was a beautiful day for a ride, and we hope you enjoy it with us as we s...
Franny & Me - Two-up on the CT125 - Manitoulin South Shore to Misery Bay with Terrorist Gravel.
Переглядів 175Рік тому
Taking my wife for a ride from our cottage on the south shore of Manitoulin Island, over to Misery Bay Conservation Area. Along the way (20:49) we ran into a couple miles of freshly poured gravel that hadn't even been graded yet. This proved to be a challenge for the little CT125, but I kept my wife on the bike, and kept it upright the whole trip. There's not so much dialog on this ride, so enj...
Trail Tour - Manitoulin. 2022 Honda CT125
Переглядів 5262 роки тому
I brought my 2022 Honda CT125 with me to our family cottage on Manitoulin Island in northern Ontario Canada. I'm still trying to figure out the video editing software, so this is mostly raw footage, except for a segment or two cut out while I was chatting with a neighbour. I may post more polished versions of this video as I learn more features of the software. The problem is that I have little...
Lectric XP 2.0 Ride from Maspeth, Queens to Flushing Meadows Park
Переглядів 792 роки тому
A Sunny Afternoon ride on my Lectric XP 2.0 to the Park and back. Drivers don't like bicyclists in NYC, and bicyclists don't like drivers, so everyone is not respecting anyone. I try to stick to the bike lanes, and behave respectfully but sometimes they're just out to get you. I've learned that you need to block your space regardless of where you are in the road. This video was taken last year,...
Relive Summary of a ride from Maspeth to Tenafly, NJ

41.5 mile trip! Next time I'll bring the OSMO Camera to show highlights. Lectric XP 2.0 worked flawlessly, except for a bit of brake squeal that eventually stopped.
Upgrading Lectric 2.0 freewheel for improved low/high gearing, what I got from Amazon
Переглядів 3042 роки тому
Clearly I had purchased the wrong item, not knowing a "cassette" from whatever other doo-hickey I needed. This has since been rectified - the video was posted as a visual to confirm with a friend that I had, indeed, purchased the wrong thing. Live and Learn.
Lectric XP 2.0 Maspeth Queens, OSMO Action 4K on helmet
Переглядів 953 роки тому
Quick bike ride through Maspeth Queens, an errand run. Tried out the helmet cam, will probably stick to the chest harness in future, the helmet mount has too much head-turning action.
