Hi there and welcome to the channel. We are two motorcyclist who love to ride locally around Devon and Cornwall but also adventure into Europe. We have explored France and Spain together. We have various trips planned for the forthcoming years and plan to take you on these trips and adventures. More often than not it will usually be a local journey around the beautiful coastline we have here with the odd adventure north on our motorcycles.

To Roadford Reservoir for NOT Breakfast
Do you have manual torque for every bolt and nut in address 110?
Usually find on google else use my judgement
Nice sharing them I’ve been to the Dunkirk museum I didn’t know about them memorials I would’ve gone there and I looked 👍
So much tucked away and not always easily to find. I like doing some searching when i'm riding around Normandy. I've the gpx files should you want to return.
Thank you appreciate that 👍🏍️ safe travels
All those sites looked so quiet and peaceful. Difficult to understand how different it was.
It's very hard to imagine the chaos here when all you see is sweet villages and countryside
I have another question for you, does your TL also have a bit of af tick? Mine does, i have adjustet the valves about 4000 km ago, and still the tick tick sound 🤷🏻♂️. Some says it is so, some say it should not tick at all. HELP 🙂
You know TL stands for Ticks Loudly🤣. Yes mine ticks. I think they all tick. Check the TL forums
I have done this, but here in Denmark there is a lot of “i know it all better than all of you” people if you know what i mean 😄. Okay, i will enjoy my TL even more now 😃💪🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I am considering this bike, hopefully I can try one soon. I fear it might be too big and awkward at low speed and stops.
It's not a big bike. It doesnt like low revs for crawing through town. My clutch is heavy and painful after a while. I see some people do the hydraulic clutch mod. There is plenty information out there on mods. Get one and you wont stop grinning😁
Mine blow up last Thursday was running just fine an the it locked up on me. Started up again but has a knocking an the oil is glitter filled sad its currently for sale on Gumtree spares an repairs sad because it was a monster to ride.
Sorry to hear that.
You had better weather than us!
Great weather, considering it's a little early in the weather window.
Hi that reminded me of myself flying around the IOM love fair play to you 👍🏍️😎
Love these roads. I've yet to do the IOM.
Taking one for a test ride tomorrow and will probably buy, as it's selling for the equivalent of 1400 pounds (2990 NZ dollars) + on road costs. Local Suzuki dealer is going out of business and everything is at sale price. The Honda dealer has the near-identical Dio/Vision 110 at 1725 (3695 NZD) + ORC and they didn't want to give me a test ride.
You wont regret it. A reliable scooter
@@lipglosshelmetsandhim Bought it after test ride, so much better than my little 50 cc scoot.
@@richardmcgrath61 Great news
I just bought a TL1000s its rather taty but it runs and ride good lovely bikes ❤v❤
Welcome to the club. You will love it. Make sure you join a suitable forum to get help with the issues you will come across.
@@lipglosshelmetsandhim cheers I'm already in love wonderful machine 👌🙂👍
Interesting and thought provoking. It's nice that you managed to pull in a couple of days to yourself before heading to the Pyrenees.
Much better running on your own. Decisions are much quicker and easier to make. I really enjoy the WII stuff, getting up close and touching history.
I've not really done much of the Normandy exploration, I imagine it is all quite fascinating and emotional too. Lovely drone footage, is good that these buildings are left as a memorial to the war.
Well, it's worth a visit if you are interested. There is so much to see and touch. I've been 3 times now and still finding more stuff. My first visit was cycling and managed to end up at Pegasus Bridge on June 6th some years ago. We watched a whole load if veterans marching through. Very moving.
Nice history looking forward to the trip👍🏍️
Thanks 👍
I definitely want to check this out some time, but my 125 might look a bit lost and out of place 😅
There are all sort of motorbikes there. Do it!
140mpg? have you really tested it?
yep, mostly lower then that but you can do it.
Guys great to see kingsbridge in the video. The start bay inn and the boathouse cafe at Torcross are both worth a visit if you’ve the area.
Thanks for the tips. Will try and visit soon. 😁
Cute little staffy
Hehe great fun as always 😁
Always, thanks for watching
When I had my anf125 with two up I dreaded anyone braking in front of me. But loved trips out on it 140 mpg. Lucky u two at Port Isaac.
Yep, stopping time increases with two up. We managed ok. We love taking the scooter out, such a giggle.
Looks a lovely place port Issac 🤣🤣 turn her off 👍🏍️
Port Isaac is worth a short visit.
Congratulations on being the only person on a hooligan bike at the DGR 🤣 Sure I see’d some guys go down a bus lane. Get an unexpected picture of themselves in the post 🫣 Can’t be easy to keep a group together in the big bad city.
There was a Ducati and some other stuff. You can use the bus lanes in Plymouth Difficult for a big group and we didnt get a briefing like last time. Thanks for watching
Yes, the clutch pull is ridiculous! The S should really have had a hydraulic slave/master cylinder like the TL-R and the European twins.
Agreed, it's painful for me on a long ride
Cor it looked a bit posh for me. Baked potatoe and cheese with plenty of pepper for me (if I can’t get a pasty). Some top quality stickers *INSIDE* your top box 🤔🤪 Nice ickle vid but prefer to hear Kim giving you a bit of gyp 🤣
Lovely seafood, fresh.....awesome. worth little trip. Not expensive. Yep, some quality stickers there, i could with ,more of different folk😁 I had it all the way there, just as well we didnt capture it. Shame but next video.
That food did look very good 👍
So good, worth a visit.
Shame about the sound Heath, can you try better next time and make sure everything is working before we set off like I suggested 😆😄😁
I must , I must listen to you........................................now and then!🤭
😂😂 See it's all your fault Heath. Food looked nice but Squid......not for me
Love seafood. You liked the mussels in Spain that year in Gijon🐟
🤣😂🤣
That was a beautiful 400/4, my second bike way back when 👍
One of my dream bikes. I have one but unfinished as of yet. Oneday it will be on the road.
Am very envious today and yesterday for the wonderful weather you had for this run! 🙂
Great day out and great to have you along with us, hopefully we’ll see you again trigger! All the best Dave!🤣🤣👍🏻
🤣
No problem Dave. Until next time
Really enjoyed that day. Thanks for coming along, it was good to catch up 😎👍🏼
Thankyou for letting me join you. Love to do it again 😛
I had the TL1000R and yoshimura pipes fitted … best sounding bike I’ve ever had
It is difficult to beat a ride out to a cafe with mates and a mooch around a bike shop. Do you like the new Himalayan?
It was a great ride out. I'm awaiting my next trip with the guys. As for the himalayas.....I like it as in its a.modern look but I prefer the older one as it shouts as being about ability and not looks.
I always feel a bit lost at bike nights. Great to see such variety though 👍🏼
My favourite bike there that Kawasaki Turbo should ever sold mine worth a small fortune now what a great selection of different Bikes nice one👍🏍️
You had one, nice. It looked in a well kept condition. Worth a few pennies now I guess.
Whenever I see nicely done chops I always think I'd quite like to build one one day. Ace you had great weather for it 🙂
Great weather for a change. There lots of great motorbikes up there, too many to film. Thanks for witching
Nice one Heath👍
Thank you for watching😁
Blue sky & sun wow. Looks a well organised meet. Like the Kawasaki GPZ turbo 😮
Always well organised event.
Nice to see some home maintenance looked easy still going strong the Suzuki 👍🏍️
Hey, thanks for watching. It's a reliable scooter. Not as fast as your new Kawasaki though...
Why are these Suzukis so much cheaper than the honda competition? Bargain if ask me. Looking for a belt drive scoot again as chain is a pain imo. Even stood the links seize. If my chain was bad on my honda anf125 it would really affect performance
@@volt8684 Not sure why, but yep, cheap, reliable and easy to maintain.
Nice bit of fault finding and fixing mate, hope the rectifyer is now sorted.
Yep, new one purchased, seems to be OK at the moment.
Bleddy lectrics 🤬 Rectifier cooked the battery?
Probably cooked battery. Best served with plenty of expletives lol
@@lipglosshelmetsandhim 🤣🤣🤣
90's bikes 90's wiring, I'm afraid. It's still worth fixing and keeping the iconic bike on the road.
Yep, it comes part of the package owning something that is old!
Defo my Honda CBR1000f did this quite common on them. Replaced reg rec
Had this on my vfr whilst abroad. Only 3 yrs old and needed a new rectifier/regulator. Was in 2002 and in France. Cost me €600 .. still got receipt. Was a huge chunk then. I don’t mind mechanical issues but electrics👎. My rectifier had overheated and melted some wiring too
Electrics, wizardy in my book. New recifier fitted agin on the TL. I think I need to replac ethe battery though.
It's now the second one I have replaced
Kim’s priorities 😂 🤦🏻♂️ Love you two…so much fun 😊
Many thanks
Great video guys, 😂
Thank you
😅😅😅😅😅😊😊😊😊 love the gold boots could trade them if you ran out of money .
Now there's a thought 😆🤣
Comedy gold yet again. Heath, I think you're overpacking! Kim..... just the essentials. Liking the dog count 😂😂
Kim was be serious😢
@@lipglosshelmetsandhim Bet that hair drier would fit in your top box to help her out a bit 🤨🤨
@Banditmanuk umm, no. 5kg weight limit. She wants it, she carry its. 😏
Think i will stick to my vtr after watching this 😂
You should, the rectifier has packed up now. 😢
As a honda c50/70/90 anf 125 yamaha townmate 80 ( shaft drive -yes), and Yamaha xmax250 and sh300 over48 yrs for commuting I am an avid fan of these little beasts. I bought my honda anf125 at 6 months old and put 77k miles on it trouble free. When I sold it the buyer picked it up in a peugeot 406 estate😂
There a lot to be said for these twist and go. I can see what other countries population use them as the main mode of transport. Thanks for watching and commenting
Looks a nice cheap little work horse. Probably wouldn't be so cheap if you let the dealer do all the servicing 😮
Exactly, dealer prices work out about 25% of the cost each time, 4 service's and you have paid for the bike hence why I do it. Its in 4 tyres and the sump plug I can't remove at a local mc dealer.
Had a rectifier go on my 3 yr old VFR 800 (in 2002) near Lyon in France. Cost me €700 then and tha was 22 yrsago. No choice though😮
Wow, that was expensive but if its the only way to get you going then you have no choice.
I used to own an apartment near Gibraltar and we did many road trips in our little car in reverse to you touring Spain stopping in paradors as a treat as some are very expensive. Such beautiful country. The rural paradors are incredible locations and can see they were once fortresses looking over the plains. My daughter was in Salamanca at university for two years teaching. Very envious. I have toured most of central Spain and is truly awesome so much to see and do. There are some gorgeous towns around Madrid too which my daughter taught in various schools. She was in Talavera de La reina which was the old capital and just a couple of years ago you could but a 4 bed flat built like a brick outhouse for €45k. I would emigrate tomorrow but for the Brexit 90 day rubbish
We love Spain as you can probably tell. We have over the years done a few laps of 🇪🇸 . We learnt earlier on that paradors were awesome places to stay. Ronda is one of our favourite places and parador. We have ridden through central Spain on our way to Avila and Sergovia. Both beautiful places to visit. Love stopping off in small white washes towns for a ☕️
