    The main question about why no new bike, I forgot the most important but, I literally can't afford one otherwise of course I would 😂

    I believe in you! You'll get that Valkyrie running way or another.

    Hey man, fellow youtuber here... I live in Clayton area. Well Selma, but right on the border of Clayton. Ride the same roads you do. Just stumbled on to your channel. Very cool collection of bikes you have. A friend of mine has an Z900RS. Tuned, full exhaust, air box mod, filter... all the usually stuff. We roll race all the time, dam that RS is quick.
    Anyway, I see you went with Ivan's tune, I have a FZ1, and had my ecu reflashed by Ivan. The man knows how to tune, major improvement. Maybe we will run into each other, would be a pleasure to ride with you... well I'm off today on another ride with some friends, nice to see another youtuber in the area... Good Times !

      Hey! Nice to virtually meet you, I'll have to get out some day and meetup if you like. I honestly go West as much as is humanly possible to the mountains. Yeah they're a nicely fast bike, nothing crazy but fairly ok. Back to the track for me on the 22nd.
      Yeah the bike is way way better after he diddled it's ECU! I can't do certain things on camera by the way, visa and all that :D

    Royal Enfield Shotgun there that was easy . . . A lot to do, and consequently a lot for we viewers to look forward to. I really thought/hoped for one moment in that video you were going to say you would delete the beak 🤣. So I shall wait with baited wassanames for whatever happens next. Thank you as always. 👍

      Haha how long did you ponder it though :P Soooooooo much to do :D Currently suffering from the "what to do first" syndrome. I might take it off one day If I think it was doable without ruining it :D Thank you as always! You generally help to make it so that my videos aren't just me talking in to the void :D

    Good plans sir. I'll be interested in all. What to buy? Z900RS!! Oh, and maybe a VStrom and a cruiser of some description and a V4, of course. Mmmmh, need a

    Looking forward to seeing more work on the Valkyrie, spotted a few gen 3 magna's going for pretty small money in the US on Facebook lately if you do find a few spare dollars under the mattress! Keep up the good work!

    • @TheGorillaBiker
      @TheGorillaBiker  21 день тому

      I'll be able to fly through stuff once I get the engine sparking. Can't wait to hear it run! Ah the next bike I'd get would be a mostly dedicated track bike tbh, as much as I'd like another Magna I don't really have the space sadly. Thanks!

    @RoadsOfOz 25 днів тому +1

    Bike on my wishlist is the Moto Guzzi V100. Might test ride one.
    Ah the joys of fleet maintenance. Multiple bikes always have things that need stuff done to them.

    • @TheGorillaBiker
      @TheGorillaBiker  21 день тому

      They're gorgeous, I could see you on one :D
      Haha it's a never ending cycle. Keeps me busy and sane tho. Probably wouldn't be mentally very well without the work :D

    Looking forward to more on the Valkyrie 👍 Have you heard it running yet ? Glad to hear you on the mend, backs are bastards, ask me how I know 🙂

    • @TheGorillaBiker
      @TheGorillaBiker  21 день тому

      I have sadly not heard it run yet, bloody spark issue was behind the timing cover most likely and I literally couldn't get down there for the last few months. Absolutely, I wouldn't wish it on anyone.

    I would buy an adventure bike. I don’t have a specific one in mind, Tassie is just made for them 😎✌🏻

    • @TheGorillaBiker
      @TheGorillaBiker  26 днів тому +1

      I think you'd love one anyway tbh! I hope you get to get a good test on one some day! If you make it here you're welcome to try the Strom :)

  • @gogathome
    @gogathome 25 днів тому +1

    Bike I would buy right now - a daycent low mileage BMW R1150 GS. I know not much money to some but I just can't buy one at the moment or I would be divorced, as it would be ANOTHER bike 😀

    • @TheGorillaBiker
      @TheGorillaBiker  21 день тому

      Ah stop so many bikes out there most people probably think is "cheap". I look at them and also consider the sad end of my marriage if I went ahead with it :D

    Only upgrades for my zzr14. Carbon wheels? Ohlins? Had the breaks and pipe done.. Half the cost of a bike. And I love what I have. Or a H2!....

    • @TheGorillaBiker
      @TheGorillaBiker  19 днів тому

      Carbon wheels are always a mad temptation for me but they cost so so much money. A suspension upgrade has always been the best thing I've done to a bike. I'd love a H2 as well :D Mad money tho.

    Good viewing as with all your bikes , as yourself I am a Kawasaki z900rs owner
    And on a previous video you once mentioned about fitting a quick shifter 🤔❓
    Was just wondering if your still thinking of fitting 1 be interesting 🧐
    All the best from England, mark 🍺🇬🇧👍🏻

      Carbs are great :P Except when they don't work :D
      Slowly slowly ridey Valkyrie.
      The Vstrom is a beast. Literally just does everything with a smile on it's face. I love it.
      Ship it over here I'll buy it :D
      Oh yes. Do it.
