Derek's World Of Motorcycling
Приєднався 9 чер 2013
I'm Derek, a 50-something motorcyclist in the UK. I've been riding bikes since 1999, so it could be said that I'm a late starter to the game. However, motorcycling is my main hobby and passion!
I've created this channel to share some of my motorcycling related experiences, as well as show some of the weird and wonderful machinery that I've encountered along the way. I hope you enjoy the content. Don't forget to like and subscribe!

You're corrupting me, Derek. I'm looking at another YR5 on Ebay! Maybe the guy meant 3 strokers!
Don't just look. It's a buyer's market 😄
Amazing to see how good the MZ looks now, as a teen in the 80s you would not have touched one with a barge pole! 😂😂
Ha ha, I must admit that I agree with you. Funny how one's view of the world changes over time isn't it 🤔 Thanks for watching 👍
Love the 3 strokes
3 strokes? Or 3 strokers? 😯😉
Parece até q voltei no tempo q estava de novo no meu planeta de origem!!!
I wish I could go back in time, the way things are going here! 🤦♂️ Thanks for watching 👍
Tem coisa mais linda de se ver!!!
Yes, that makes me happy 😁
Nice Video Derek cheers matey
Thanks for watching. Glad you enjoyed the video 👍
Paid for by the NHS in Scotland. Only dependant on charity in England. Another of the many lucrative benefits of being a Scot.
Really? I didn't know that! 😯 I look forward to crashing my motorbike next time I'm in Scotland! Are there really that many other LUCRATIVE benefits of being a Scot??? 🏴💰😉
@@derekb2765 Look at the Barnett formula and count the billions heading up the M6 yearly. Look at pensioners travel benefits. Nurses and police pay. The great benefit of having a neighbour without a national parliament, voice or choice. Then look who engineered it. Look up the Scottish claim of Right. If you have an hour or two I will tell you all.
Nooo, I'll take your word for it! 😉 Certainly not many benefits, lucrative or otherwise, for those of us living south of the border 🤦♂️
@@derekb2765 The Barnett Formula and 'The Scottish Claim of Right' Should be force fed to every English man and woman. Enlightenment.
There's only so much more enlightenment us English can take lol 😂🤔😳
Nice video Derek. Good to see Elspeth Beard on stage, coincidentally I finished reading her book yesterday, it's worth a read, but has put me off long-distance travel on a motorbike...
Glad you enjoyed the video. 😄 What is it that's put you off long-distance motorcycle travel? 🤔
Cop Loves the sound of his own voice.😒😒Nothing wrong with your riding!!
For the record, you have Hinckley listed in Warwickshire. Hinckley is in Leicestershire :0)
It sure is! Have corrected it in the description. Thanks! 👍
Congrats on the 1,000 milestone 🎉
Thank you mate! 😇
Good video again, Derek. It's expensive enough to renew 2 on a modern bike, let alone 3! I don't fancy the Niken, nearly as bad as a Harley! My wife stopped me buying a 1971 Yamaha YR5, unfortunately ! If I can sell my FJ1200, I will buy one, though .
I'd like to ride one, but I wouldn't buy one. Part of the joy of riding a motorbike is the challenge of keeping it upright! 😉
Thanks Derek , hope you enjoyed your day .
I did! I hope to visit again and chat to a few more people 👍
I'd have thought an advanced rider of his caliber would not need three wheels? How was the Cafe Derek?
Nice cafe. I intend to visit again, and hopefully will chat to a few more punters 👍
Did you reload this? I swear I just watched and commented earlier today.
I did, due to an editing error. Plus issues regarding copyright 🤦♂️
Hope i didn,t cause any problems with info overload Derek?🤔🤔
No, I just forgot the old adage. Check twice, cut once! 🤔🤦♂️ Feel free to overload at will! 😄
Another great Bike video thank you 👍
Cheers mate, thank you. Had to re-issue due to a copyright issue 😬
You're terrible for putting up videos of two strokes, Derek! You're going to force me to get another one lol!
But dear Sir, that was the intention! 😂😉
Love the old race paint schemes
Then I'm sure you'll love the RG500 that's coming soon, with the Skoal / Men Only scheme! 😃
Thought i missed out til i seen this video
Did you go to Museum Live?
@@derekb2765 No, i fund the video, oi oi oi
Don't forget to watch the 2024 start up! 😃
Congratulations on achieving 1000 subs. I see fake Henry Cole is there for both days! I thought it was a great show. Nemisis started perfectly, well done Allen 👏
Thank you 😊 I plan to do a video to thank everyone that's supported the channel. Did they introduce Pete (fake Henry) on Saturday too? I really enjoyed the show. It was great to see the Nemesis, but seeing the Flying Millyard start-up was a huge bonus! 😃
@derekb2765 No, they didn't introduce him. I got the impression Henry got slightly annoyed by him. Might be wrong of course You got the Flying Millyard a treat, loved the flames 🔥 I love events like these. Nice that you got chatting to a few folks on camera. Enjoyed it even though I had been the day before
It is a great event. HC is an acquired taste, but I think he's alright. Did you try to chat to him (or friends) on camera? 🤔 I wanted to, but couldn't be arsed to queue up for so long.
Same as you. Just too busy. I chatted to Allen some years ago at this event. He was starting several of his bikes. Nice guy but very quiet
I've chatted to Allen on a couple of occasions. Nice guy, but I think he's a bit shy, which surprised me given his fame.
Congratulations on your 1000 subscribers 🎉🎉🎉
Ah, cheers mate. I've got to do a video thanking everyone ☺️
Henry Cole - a triumph of publicity over talent...
I think he's alright. He's not as excitable as he used to be! 😉
Allen Millyard....genius.
Undeniable 🥇
I prefer smart cars
Each to their own lol 😉
I’m 76 now still own a ride a motorcycle. Have 3 sons who have had great fun on the back on my various bikes. But not one on them wants to ride or even want my motor bike !
Great that you're still riding mate. 👍 Have your sons given any reasons as to why they're not interested in motorcycling? 🤔
IN.ANOTHA.5.YEARS THE.WHOLE.COUNTRY.WILL.BE.F.....KIN.CLOSED
It seems to be going that way unfortunately. 😢
❤ beauty!!!
Thank you 😊 And thanks for watching 👍
Used to ride to the Oakdene cafe near every Sunday .Great ride through Meopham A227 countryside .But it went about 5 years ago .😢
That's a shame. Why did it close?
@derekb2765 must have been a offer they could not refuse as it's a big industrial estate now. They mostly now go to Nells cafe off the A2 Thurs nights.But it's no where near as big a parking area.
@@John-ob7dhYeah, one of those 'horse's head in the bed' type offers! 😉
@derekb2765 used to see the odd Kent 81 mob there .Maybe the had shares in the ind estate. 🤫
@@John-ob7dhHa ha, would that have been insider trading? 🤔😉
Another good biker meeting place gone! You can see the erosion of life as we know it happening before our very eyes! Great video btw🏍️🛵
Glad you enjoyed the video! Yes, it's very sad to see such a well established meeting place go. ☹️ I hope you're wrong about the erosion of motorcycling life, but it seems that way at the moment 😢
After watching this video, I'm feeling better about arriving 2.5 hours early for our Portsmouth to Santander ferry in June. That must have been a long ride through France, but at least you did it.
I'd calculated on comfortably arriving an hour before boarding, but given that accidents are such a frequent occurrence on UK motorways now, allowing 2.5 hours was a prudent decision 👍
Brilliant. Flames shooting out the exhaust. We've watched Allen ride that bike up the Prescott Hill climb
He rides it everywhere! Done over 10k miles on it! 👌
Insane prices
Market's definitely dropped 😬 Thanks for watching 👍
Thanks 👍
And thanks to you too for watching! 👍
Didn’t know it was a kickstart. Have to be confident in his tune to kick what like 3 litres?
4888cc apparently 😲
Something a wee bit different, Derek.
Just something to get into the Halloween spirit 👻💀🎃
I’ve seen z1’s sell at American auctions for 30k after you buy the bike pay for restoration and high end fee’s your margins are pretty skinny in my opinion
'73 Z1s of that quality were selling here for around £16-17k 2 years ago, so it shows how much the market's dropped 😯
Interesting content, and prices, being very sexist a woman auctioneer with a high pitched voice, just doesn't fit into the motorcycle scene.
Glad you enjoyed the video. I thought she was great. I've even been mimicking some of her auction moves. She's got style! 😉
We have been going here for many years. Will miss our rides for a breakfast with Dad, my Brothers and friends, sadly missed, a proper bikers stop..
Wholeheartedly agree 😢 Thanks for watching 👍
great reporting, thank yoiu
And thank you for watching 👍 Glad you enjoyed it 😃
Best wishes.
Best wishes to Ade. 🙏🙏🙏
English bikes went barmy when the lads who used to have them got to their 50's and had spare money ( kids away no mortgage ) so about 20 years ago but they are 70's 80's now and are too old or die off. So me like you "DEL - BABY " 50's 60's missed the English bikes, I just don't remember them. I just love jap bikes - suzuki ( Barry sheen) yami - kawi honda are the bikes I remember as a kid and my first bike a yammie. So now I have 2 suzukies one honda one bmw and ok it was an impulse buy and for years I was embarrassed to admit I have one but after 25 still have it a harley - but I've had a few yammies rd 250 2 strokes and want another . Point for rant we are right age so jap bikes constant and will rise for another 20 years.
Errrrr I remember chopping one ie resprayed (rattle can)chopped back mudguard indicators off - I thought it was cool. Cam chain tensioner was rattling like mad and very smokey- so I flogged it for £800 and put it towards a new bike ( I still have that - it's worth about £3000 now) errrr wish I kept it ( z900)
Yes, hindsight is a wonderful thing! 😉
it,ll be knocked down and a block of flats built to house "illegal immigrants".......
