I’d like to thank you for taking us along on the journey Dave. The channel has evolved massively from those early days. Your preparation , determination, character and Yorkshire delivery (With a little help from the glorious back garden you have to ride around in ) make your channel unique. It doesn’t need much of a change in formula. Just keep polishing mate. All the very best to yourself, J & E. Catch up with you soon bud.
Fantastic channel Dave, you're a true gentleman and wordsmith. I served 12 years in the MOD and l never met a Yorkshire man l didn't like . Thank you for a wonderful year.
What drew me to your channel was the beautiful scenery and your straight talking, no nonsense style, and long may it continue. If you could add a little more detail of where you are riding ( i.e., flash a road map on the screen), that would help me plan a route. I don't generally watch bike review channels unless I'm in the market for a new machine, but as your taste in motorcycles is similar to mine, I do find your reviews interesting. Product reviews are also useful if the item is useful rather than a gimmick or just bling!
Primarily I enjoy your verbal ramblings and home spun philosophies with the backdrop of beautiful Yorkshire countryside; mostly conducted on or about great motorcycles. I enjoy your ponderings over the woes of the world juxtaposed with the drama of weather and countryside. I read one of the comments which described your linguistic ability as that of a 'wordsmith'. I concur fully. Thank you Dave for the joy, wit and wisdom that bring into our lives with your blogging. Your call to kindness is a rallying call in these troubling times. God bless and seasons greetings from NL.
I thought one of the best videos you've done was probably the most personal one. You were remembering your old dad and why you couldn't get there in time. I thought that vid was just so personal and really brings home the message that even when things are tough don't forget family. Wishing you a very happy Xmas and New year and looking forward to more videos in the new year. Take care. Best wishes.
Talking of Appleyard's, which you were, I see they've got a sparkly new website. I also notice they're now selling the Benda Moto bikes. So, the question is, will you be out on a Benda in the near future?
Merry Christmas and a happy New Year. Thanks for the entertaining content. No need for any major changes. I rode the very same route today from (a very quiet) Pateley Bridge to the A59 then over t' Blubberhouses to Skipton and home to near Blackburn.
For my money Dave, I love the ride outs and a bit of a yarn, especially enjoy the scenery as an ex pat. I think that a bit of drone footage wouldn't go amiss particularly over places of significant interest. Congratulations on the channel growth; you're certainly doing something right. All the best.
Many thanks Dave for all the wonderful content this year. Wishing you & yours a very Merry (relaxed) Christmas and an ever expanding New Year for the channel. 🎅
Dave what a good reflection on the journey that you have taken us all on. It’s also very helpful to explain in simple terms what new products are out there and how you have gotten to grips with them! Links to the purchase of same and discount code also a bonus. I think motorcycles have become a luxury in many ways. The ride outs I go on with various groups and buddies are mostly ages 60 plus retired and had bikes back in the day as transportation. Main issue as I see it is the cost to obtain a license and our recent weather! Folks in general have other more important ways to spend their hard earned taxed to hell monies. Dealers have to comply with so much crap from the big corporate brands plus the rise in Rents, wages, running cost etc. little wonder they are closing! I love the Yorkshire landscape and perhaps a short summary of the routes , highlights of the trip and a good recommendation for Coffee, grub etc would aid to the viewing. Keep up what you are doing and have a Happy New Year! Regards John
I really enjoy your channel. It makes me wistful for the days when I lived in Harrogate with the dales on my doorstep. Many of the roads you ride I know personally. I now live nearer the east coast so the moors are my playground. I like your down to earth and honest opinions on the bikes you test and the state of the bike industry, especially the over priced main brands and how the up and coming brands are chasing them. Your channel doesn't need a thing changing for me. Merry Christmas.
1, Voge 2, Lewis 3,Gas Gas 4, Arai 5, Metzeler Karoo , well thats my go and thank you for the last years videos and a trip tp the Yorkshire wild is on the cards for next year , Merry Christmas and a fantastic New Year

Nice clear video. I have no idea if there are benefits from a de-cat pipe other than the loss of a bit of weight. Crash bungs do not work other than a static or very low speed tip over. I fully agree that you should refit the OE exhaust and keep the dresser bars while you take time to assess the options that might be available. Best wishes for the festive season and the New Year.
Morning Dave just like to say “thank you” for your content this year and to wish you a very happy Christmas 👍🏻 now here’s my answers -: 1. Voge 2. Lewis 3. Gas gas 4. Shark 5. Metzeler Karoo Carry on that man Caio for now tat ta
As a fellow Yorkshiremen and biker I always find your ride out videos very interesting indeed as I get to see roads and scenery in our great county I didn't know existed (occasionally I do recognise roads and places you ride and visit) I also concur with many of our musings on life and will therefore continue to watch your channel and look forward to seeing all the new two wheeled toys you get to ride out on 2025.
Hello Dave. Merry Christmas to you and yours. I am happy with any type content that tickles your fancy to create. Your content is a bit different than that of some other providers and in my mind, variety is the spice of life. You would be hard pressed to produce any content that I wouldn't find enjoyable. Do what ever brings you enjoyment and our enjoyment will follow. BJ
Well done Dave for growing the channel so much, we know how hard it is, frustrating but also highly rewarding. I tried a drone and to be honest it was such a pain, my experience sitting on a windy hillside trying to sync it to the phone which it often refused and then swearing when I crashed it into a tree. It was a gift that I eventually sold. For me it had a GoPro feeling to it, excellent when it worked. Anyway I'll be enjoying your channel in 2025 so thanks for a good year! Sean
Hi TBW Thanks for the wonderful vids this year. Love them all watching them is nearly as good as surf fishing on the 90 mile beach at my special place at Loch Sport in East Gippsland Australia with my motor cycle riding mate from the 70s Merry Christmas to you and yours Kind Regards Geoff PS the older we get the faster we were
Dave just don't change the direction of your channel mate, it doesn't need fancy camera or anything else... I live in Germany and follow you to see the areas I miss in the UK....... Only thing I might ask is you go further afield to bring us more wonderful pictures of god's country... Happy Christmas and new year if you believe in the stuff... Otherwise happy winter solstice... All the best from Osnabruck.
Bit by bit I’ve come to really like your channel - now it’s one of my top few go-to channels, I like the commentary and the dales, I like the product reviews and value your comments - I’ve even bought an Aoochi! some tea shops would be good. Happy Christmas Dave!
Morning Dave Indian Lewis Gas gas Arai Metzler Karoo Cheers Rob Forgot to say, I like seeing the local scenery and trying to spot where you are as I'm only over in Thornton.
Congratulations Dave on the success of your channel, as a subsciber, I always look forward to getting a notification and viewing your content. Well done and hats off to you sir, I hope you're feeling proud, don't know how you find the time to review your video, edit, voice-over etc. I really hope you and your family have a great Christmas and Santa leaves you a new DRONE to play with in 2025 🤞 NOW THAT WOULD BE AWESOME 😂 Best wishes and Happy New Year, John A 👏 😊
Always enjoy my morning ride across the moors Dave. So thanks for taking me along. Even watch some of your reviews, although I'm no longer in the market to buy a new Bike ...after 63 years my Motorcycling journey is reaching its end, swopping and changing anyway ...Feels very much like my 2014 Street Triple 675 will be my Swan Song....l will keep riding the Triumph until l can no long ''get me leg over''.... The tech now available is mind boggling, although l did say in an earlier Video there is a danger of 'cluttering ' up the bike with too much technology, to my mind anyway..... Over here in Spain my local Moto Guzzi dealer has gone, l suspect the KTM will follow shortly...its pretty depressing, or would be, if not for my local Alicante Royal Enfield dealer seemingly going from strength to strength, plus a few second hand dealers surviving the crisis....A massive one in Alicante is always packed with bikes and prospective customers.....Perhaps they will be the ones who survive. ...Feliz Navidad y Prospero Ano Nuevo Ride save
Hi Dave been watching you for a long time now and love your channel. Please could you do a stream covering the mopeds from the 70s like the Honda SS50 and FS1Es . Most of us would have started out our biking lives . The value of these bikes have gone crazy 5k for a Yamaha FS1E the same for the Suzuki AP50 . To many streamers only show the basics and don't really cover the bikes in detail. I am above the age of 64 now and love the old mopeds as so many of us do. 👍👍👍
Good morning Dave, you know you can rely on me to give good advice on the channel. I think we need the addition of scantily clad dancing girls. But all in the best possible taste. Merry Christmas and continued good luck with the channel.
Content has been excellent this season and being a Yorkshire lad myself I certainly enjoy the vista on your channel. Maybe in the new year you could do a brief history of certain places your riding through or certain landmarks your riding past. Looking forward to seeing more merry Christmas 🎄🎁👌🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Definitely, definitely add some follow me drone footage to the rider POV footage as this can only enhance the immersive experience. Slight correction on the Aoocci functionality, my preferred nav app is Calimoto and they don't support AA, so I'm restricted to Google Maps and still have to mount my phone too. Same goes for Spotify though that's less vital for me. Still well worth the punt for dash cams and TPMS.
@thebingleywheeler that's an odd inconsistency. I've got the C6Pro ... no remote with this version. AA brings up a selection of supported apps, Spotify isn't one of them. Something to iron out perhaps.
Mix it up a bit for sure, you look confident in front of a camera, and personally I find that more engaging. So I’d say no harm in trying new things, your channel has the loyalty to give it all a go.
Having lived in Yorkshire, Goole and Howden 2008-10 and although having a BMW K100, I never came to terms with the weather to ride as much as I would have liked. Back in the Gold Coast Australia and having six bikes to ride including a Husqvarna Svartpilen 401 2024 based on your review, I find the opposite weather ie to hot, holds me back. I would appreciate if you could give more commentary on where you are when riding
Love your work , keep them coming . It would be much appreciated if you can do a review on the new Royal Enfield 650 Classic Twin for me . Merry Christmas to you and your Family .
I always enjoy your content, if I had to make one minor criticism, it would be that personally I don't enjoy looking through a screen when riding and I find that distracting in your videos - I know it's only on certain bikes, but I thought I'd mention it and it's *really* nit-picking! Keep up the great work and have a great Xmas
As you well know the sixteener specials got 1000s of us into bikes . I bought myself the Aoocci 6 pro and love it . I fact i ordered the basic model and they sent me the pro model .Customer service bang on .Its such good value for money great piece of kit . I bought my Aoocci vs your stream Dave . No my mate want to buy the Aoocci for his camper with three cameras . With a camera to the rear and one to the front .There's also a camera for the inside of the camper .So cheap 150 Euro . Can i still use your code to buy this for him???
Merry Christmas to you both, I'd love to see drone footage, also a question re the bsa 650 engine.. if it's the same one to be used in the scrambler BSA 650 next year is it worth putting my hard earned NHS cash on. 😂🎉❤ (Poor nurse) 😊xx
Hi Martine yes same tried, trusted and pretty much bomb proof Rotax engine so worth your ridiculously underpaid salary for one of the most important jobs there is ❤️ All the very best to you and yours over Christmas and thank you for being here 😊xx
Competition answers by me 1 BMW 2 HELD LEATHERS (street hawk) 3 HOLT (as in Holt motorcycles) 4 SHOEI 5 KAROO (metzler tyre brand) Thanks for the challenge please post correct answers after the competition ends 👍🏻
Personally I’d like more content on classic/old school and British bikes such as Royal Enfield and CCM, more accessories reviews including riding kit, and less Chinese promotion.
Always good stuff Dave, every respect to you.. I know how much is involved just to produce a 15 minute video..😉 Just want to pick your mind if i may Dave. Im about to pull the trigger on a bike in your neck of the woods ( Cobb and Jagger - Shipley) 3 yr old bike, 3 previous owners ( 2,000 miles) but only offering a 12 week warranty with no option to buy an extended one) It looks excellent but the limited warranty is bothering me as it involves a lot of money ( its enough to but a new Voge 900 or MT 800 outright) Do you have any history with these people, any insight on them?) Thanks either way Dave.. All the best!!! 👍
Hi I’ve never heard a bad word about them and I bought my bsa there recently and the service was good. That said I’ve emailed them several times via the website over the years re reviewing their bikes and never had a response
good afternoon, Wheeler of Bingley, as always I enjoyed this vid. As a foreigner i would like to make a suggestion about te content, as requested bij you. Everytime I watch your vids I am tempted to spend a motorcycle holliday in your territory. I was wondering if it is possible for you to now and then park the bike and have a stroll around some villages. Every now and then i,ve seen you passing through some places that look quite charming, and i would like to see a bit more of them, and maybe hear you commenting/recommending about the place. Sort of like a holliday program as you can see on TV, but not that extensive, and without bikinigirls running through te dales, that would definitely be to much to ask for. I guess? Now i will not go as far as asking to review the local Chippie, B & B , and the local Pub ( however, for that I would be willing to make an exception) but hey, perhaps ?? Realizing that this is a cheeky request, asking a motorcyclist to do some walking, i hereby directly apologize if I have scared the s..... out of you.
Regarding de-cat pipes. From the Gov.uk website.The law Under the Road Vehicles (Construction and Use) Regulations (Regulations 61(7) and 61A(3)) and the Road Traffic Act 1988 (Section 42) it is an offence to use on a road a vehicle which has been modified in such a way that it no longer complies with the air pollutant emissions standards it was designed to meet. The potential penalties are £1,000 for a car and £2,500 for a van, lorry or bus. Under the Road Traffic Act 1988 (Section 75) it is an offence to alter a vehicle in such a way that the use of the vehicle on a road would be unlawful. A person altering the vehicle (if they knew or believed that the vehicle would be used on the road) could be found guilty of an offence under the Act. Potential penalties are unlimited fines.
asking people what they want ? great , but when they get it they may be already fairly well done with their idea , = so keeping it mixed keeps it fresh , sometimes when you do video on travel or a roadtest i hate it so turn off ,,, but don't unsubscribe,,, i wait and cosy up to the next video i like , this applies to all the channels i watch , so i would say to all you that do this = including volcanic brown = who has had a lot of flack for just being nice ;; do what you want to do ;;
I’d like to thank you for taking us along on the journey Dave. The channel has evolved massively from those early days. Your preparation , determination, character and Yorkshire delivery (With a little help from the glorious back garden you have to ride around in ) make your channel unique. It doesn’t need much of a change in formula. Just keep polishing mate. All the very best to yourself, J & E. Catch up with you soon bud.
Cheers Gaz much appreciated as always don’t forget you played your part too…..all the best pal 👍🏻
Fantastic channel Dave, you're a true gentleman and wordsmith.

Nice clear video. I have no idea if there are benefits from a de-cat pipe other than the loss of a bit of weight. Crash bungs do not work other than a static or very low speed tip over.

Merry Christmas Wheeler and I’ll see thee 😊👍
Love your work , keep them coming . It would be much appreciated if you can do a review on the new Royal Enfield 650 Classic Twin for me . Merry Christmas to you and your Family .
What, no planned reviews of “pies” in 2025 ?? Hope you and Andy both have a great festive period.Safe riding , Brizzle

Good Morning Dave , i just like to wish you & your family a very Merry Christmas , ride safe
I’m sorry to read this here 😢
Thank you Steve and to you
@@thebingleywheeler Now that I know the answers I am withdrawing from the quiz 😂
Merry Christmas to you both, I'd love to see drone footage, also a question re the bsa 650 engine.. if it's the same one to be used in the scrambler BSA 650 next year is it worth putting my hard earned NHS cash on. 😂🎉❤ (Poor nurse) 😊xx
Hi Martine yes same tried, trusted and pretty much bomb proof Rotax engine so worth your ridiculously underpaid salary for one of the most important jobs there is ❤️ All the very best to you and yours over Christmas and thank you for being here 😊xx

Personally I’d like more content on classic/old school and British bikes such as Royal Enfield and CCM, more accessories reviews including riding kit, and less Chinese promotion.
Always good stuff Dave, every respect to you..
I know how much is involved just to produce a 15 minute video..😉
Just want to pick your mind if i may Dave.
Im about to pull the trigger on a bike in your neck of the woods ( Cobb and Jagger - Shipley)
3 yr old bike, 3 previous owners ( 2,000 miles) but only offering a 12 week warranty with no option to buy an extended one)
It looks excellent but the limited warranty is bothering me as it involves a lot of money ( its enough to but a new Voge 900 or MT 800 outright)
Do you have any history with these people, any insight on them?)
Thanks either way Dave..
All the best!!! 👍
Hi I’ve never heard a bad word about them and I bought my bsa there recently and the service was good. That said I’ve emailed them several times via the website over the years re reviewing their bikes and never had a response
Thas nowt like Yorkshire tha nos.
good afternoon, Wheeler of Bingley, as always I enjoyed this vid. As a foreigner i would like to make a suggestion about te content, as requested bij you. Everytime I watch your vids I am tempted to spend a motorcycle holliday in your territory. I was wondering if it is possible for you to now and then park the bike and have a stroll around some villages.
Every now and then i,ve seen you passing through some places that look quite charming, and i would like to see a bit more of them, and maybe hear you commenting/recommending about the place.
Sort of like a holliday program as you can see on TV, but not that extensive, and without bikinigirls running through te dales, that would definitely be to much to ask for. I guess?
Now i will not go as far as asking to review the local Chippie, B & B , and the local Pub ( however, for that I would be willing to make an exception) but hey, perhaps ??
Realizing that this is a cheeky request, asking a motorcyclist to do some walking, i hereby directly apologize if I have scared the s..... out of you.
Answer 1, bsa, 2 lewis. 3 gas gas, 4, caberg 5, Metzler Kabo.
Sooooo close!! 🥰
@thebingleywheeler ooohhh nooo
MTC do a pipe that follows the route of the cat, this would not interfere with the bars. Sell the Hitchcocks pipe.
Regarding de-cat pipes. From the Gov.uk website.The law
Under the Road Vehicles (Construction and Use) Regulations (Regulations 61(7) and 61A(3)) and the Road Traffic Act 1988 (Section 42) it is an offence to use on a road a vehicle which has been modified in such a way that it no longer complies with the air pollutant emissions standards it was designed to meet.
The potential penalties are £1,000 for a car and £2,500 for a van, lorry or bus.
Under the Road Traffic Act 1988 (Section 75) it is an offence to alter a vehicle in such a way that the use of the vehicle on a road would be unlawful. A person altering the vehicle (if they knew or believed that the vehicle would be used on the road) could be found guilty of an offence under the Act.
Potential penalties are unlimited fines.
You’d have to prove the resultant emissions though 👍🏻
asking people what they want ? great , but when they get it they may be already fairly well done with their idea , = so keeping it mixed keeps it fresh , sometimes when you do video on travel or a roadtest i hate it so turn off ,,, but don't unsubscribe,,, i wait and cosy up to the next video i like , this applies to all the channels i watch , so i would say to all you that do this = including volcanic brown = who has had a lot of flack for just being nice ;; do what you want to do ;;
