    So do any of you believe this happened? Or believe in UFO,s at all? Or maybe even have a story yourselves? 👽

      @drakonix21 5 днів тому

      Would be fun to believe that it might've happened, especially since it was somewhere other than the USA where most of the UFO sightings are. Your videos are calming and fun Mr. Steve, looking forward to pass my upcoming motorcycle license exam and to purchase a Vulcan S for myself, cheers from Romania!

      @drakonix21 Glad you enjoyed the video buddy & kind of you to say so. It's a great story & must of caused rather a scandal back in the 70's, especially from such a prominent person in what was then a quiet little Swedish town , he's far more remembered for this than the successful business he built Good luck on your test mate & hope you get your own Vulcan , it's a great bike & not only for beginners, Its capable of much more than being a light weight cruiser & can be modified in many different ways. Let me know how your test goes when it time & I'll be glad to help you out with any Vulcan tips & tricks Cheers

    I had an old Suzuki Intruder that the previous owner had mounted aftermarket lights on the crash bars. However they were cheap and I realised if the road was bumpy I was strobing the car in front. The moral of the story, sometimes getting the OEM parts mean less hassle later on lol.

    Do you have many speed traps/ police patrols. I have a feeling I would lose my license very quickly on those long sweeping roads. I also recently recorded over 5 hours of footage of my trip to Squires café in complete silence because I didn't fully connect the microphone...

      Hahaha yeah it happens, really frustrating, I get 'invalid file' sometimes, normally after I feel I've just made a good recording , Yes they do have traps , mostly signposted , but they've just come with new trailer mounted ones that they move around to catch people out & make people police themselves more..Yup the frustration of reminding yourself to slow it down is a pain, I couldn't go back to English traffic though, looks horrible 😅

    A good set of waterproofs can make rain less of an issue but it tends to get in eventually, and once its in the misery starts. I don't tend to go for fun rides in bad weather. Hopefully you get a stretch of good weather for some ride outs locally.
