Yeah, it's one of my favourites too. I was out that way again, yesterday but didn't take my camera.

Yes they are a fun and cool motorbike, thanks for watching 😁👍🏍️

It is a great bike, a real pleasure to ride pottering along on twisty country lanes. Yeah even though it would manage two up, it'd be a bit of a struggle on hills and fast roads. I always ride solo so it's not an issue for me, and I'm fortunate enough to have a Continental GT 650 too ...for the faster roads, not that I go particularly fast nowadays.

Thanks, yeah it's really nice to ride and I'm very happy with it ...has a really nice engine (smooth and tractable), handles great, sounds great (especially with the aftermarket silencers), looks great, 75-80 mpg and it's reasonably comfortable (although I have fitted bar risers from CooperB ...prior to fitting these I did get pain in my arthritic wrists and shoulders after 30-40 miles, now I can easily do 70-80+ miles before wanting to get off and stretch my legs for 5 mins...the footpegs are quite tucked up)

Not without looking it up as they were already fitted when I bought it second hand.

It's nice to ride. I have new Halcyon Green.

It's a great bike, fun to ride although it's not fast, looks great (although that's subjective), handles well, sounds great and very economical. It's not one for the motorways but on the country lanes it puts a smile on your face and seems to enhance the riding experience. If you're after a inexpensive small capacity bike to plod around on you can't go wrong with the classic.

@@leighcoulson2148 That's true, but sometimes he doesn't have enough strength. His character makes up for it.

​@@leighcoulson2148Eu tenho uma Meteor 350 Supernova Brown da qual gosto muito

@@georgewilson119 yeah, it has a nice chug

yeah, it is a looker 🏍👍

Thank you 👍. A late friend of mine had a CX500 in the early 80's, it was a nice bike to ride. I also had a fancy for a Buell at one time but it was beyond my budget back then. I expect Norway has more than it's fair share of nice roads and stunning sceney 😉. Take care😊

It plods along nicely despite having only 20 bhp, especially on the smaller twisty roads

Thank you.

No, it's surprising smooth when riding. You can feel a slight throb at tick over but it's more like a pulse and not uncomfortable or significant.

It's not a significant difference but it did feel a little more lively and free revving after both mods. Probably added 1 or possibly 2 bhp but it's still not going to win any races... not that's the point of the bike.

It certainly is.

It's the Insta360 X3.

@@leighcoulson2148 thank you

Yeah, I'm fortunate to have a lot of nice motorcycling roads within easy reach.

Hello, I don't find it too bad after an hour but often stop every now and then on a longer rides of 2-5 hours anyway (food, fuel, veiws or visting something). I think I get more aches and pains driving my car or sitting in an arm chair for an hour or so but that's more of an age thing. Also I think it does take a little while to get accustomed to riding, whether completely new to it or even riding different motorbikes. Plus I used to (and occasionally still do) ride pushbikes for hours, so the classic 350 with it's generous seat and suspension is a bit of a luxury.

I come from a cycling background too and can ride a push bike for a couple of hours with no issues but the C350 has me feeling pretty sore across the shoulders after an hour or so. It must be because I'm new to it, much more weight than a push bike, I obviously need more practice! Thanks for the videos though, I will keep watching 👍

@@l0ner1derAre you gripping the bars tightly? Sounds like you’re too tense.

@@jimstenlund6017 it could well be, consciously trying to relax my upper body now and feeling the difference

@@danieljudd2519 Remember ‘piano fingers’ on the controls, not a tight grip.

Thanks. Nice bike the Bullet. I do enjoy the messing around with recording, I just started recording with the 360 camera earlier this year for my own entertainment the and was quite surprised anyone watched my youtube stuff (but it is nice that they do)... I do now attempt to make it a bit more interesting for people (still, without talking) and have learned quite a bit in the process.

@@leighcoulson2148 There are lots of us out there with Enfields that enjoy watching other people riding their own apparently. I was also surprised that so many people like to view my videos. Seems to be mainly Indian viewers according to my analytics....which makes sense.

Yeah, they're really nice bikes and we're fortunate to have plenty of nice roads to ride on, in Durham and the surrounding counties.

Hello. I use a Movo wireless mini duo microphone and a mic adapter from Insta 360. You can get the Movo system for around £50 (from Amazon) and the adapter for around £10 (from the Insta 360 store), so it's one of the cheaper options but works fine. I've moved the mic around in different positions on the bike but settled for attaching it to the rear of the canvas pannier on the Classic 350 to capture the exhaust sound but you could use it to speak into etc as well.

Thanks will have a look cheers 👍

Agree 😃The roads in this area (Derwent Reservoir - Northumberland and Durham borders) are well suited to the classic 350.

The bar risers make quite a difference. I liked the look and feel of the original riding position but my old arthritic body parts weren't so keen. I was getting quite a bit of pain in my wrists, hands, shoulders and neck after 40 - 50 miles. After fitting the bar risers I can do double (or triple) that without much discomfort. Your'e still not upright but they make quite a difference. I also angled the bars back a little (moving the little guides out of the way). They're a little bit of a faff to fit, you'll need a bike jack, drop the forks etc and it's easier if you have an assistant but well worth it for me. They're a reasonable price and don't look too bad either.

@@leighcoulson2148 Cool, thanks. Weirdly, I bought a pair of the bar extenders before I actually bought the bike! It was just a spur to get me to commit to the purchase. Anyway, I'm in two minds or not whether to fit them as I''m experimenting with different grips to see if that makes a difference, and like you, I like the look of the originals, they're just a tad too low. I did swap out the seat though for the 'premium deluxe' touring version which is wider but still stepped and more comfortable.

Unfortunately I can't post a map directly in here. The whole route was quite a complicated affair, keeping to smaller twisty roads from Durham, however most of the video just shows a relatively small section between Grinton/Askrigg/Muker (with a little bit showing Raby Castle and the road from Richmond to Reeth, another great motorcycling road). Anyway the twisty section was from: Grinton - along Swale Hall Lane (from a very small road junction just south of the Swale and B6270 junction in Grinton ...however this bit is very narrow and very steep in places ...it is possibly to join this road west of Healaugh if you want to bypass this bit) , this road continues but its designation changes to Low Lane and High Lane, then Long Road (heading to Askrigg), it's quite a climb. As you descend nearing Askrigg you meet another road at a T junction (Cross Top), from there you turn north again (almost back on yourself), along the aptly named Cross Top Road. This road meets the B6270 between Muker and Gunnerside. From here I continued on through Gunnerside to Feetham. At Feetham there's a small road heading up out of the village to Langthwaite. However as an alternative, the road to Reeth is very nice too. There's so many other great options in this area (To the west and north - Hawes, Thwaite, Buttertubs,Tan Hill, The Stang and to the south into Nidderdale etc)

Thank you for that most helpful 👍

@@kf-dk5pb No problem.
