Lads, any chance you can do a vid with White Dalton regarding liability and rights when buying and selling a used bike, what can a buyer realistically do if the bike turns out to be a shed, also if someone claims a bike is rubbish after purchase but it isn't..
Griff is right up there when it comes to my favorite characters in the 44Teeth universe. Radiates positive energy!
Couldn’t agree more
I bought a tuono a couple of years back and the guy is a huge help to the whole community, had often had a chat with him over the phone about bits on my bike and he's always happy to help!
Anyone with an Aprilia now knows where to tke their bike for service/repairs. Grif is such a knowledgeable enthusiastic guy.
Need to support these type workshops who are the backbone of biking.👌👍👍
Wish every bike mechanic was like Griff, can tell he is genuinely happy and buzzing looking over another bike. Brilliant guy
Grif is the superstar of Aprilia. Amazing video!! He saved my old Tuono from its gremlins. You are in safe hands 😊 especially once Grif says he knows the bike 🎉
Griff was a great help years ago when I made the poor decision to buy an RS125 off a local crackhead, top bloke
I bet it held a line well though?
RSV Methy R
@@SeanRidley-g7z It was rock solid.
That made me laugh! We all had that crackhead mate with an rs125! Soo good the crack heads had them lol 😂
Those are best buys😉
I'd pay good money to see Griff and Andy do a BBB with you guys at some point. The banter would snap the internet
Im old, it was Scotch VHS video cassettes, 're-record, not fade away'
...and it was Maxell not Maxwell anyway 😉
What a gem of a bloke, his knowledge is worth every penny he charges customers , absolutely priceless, sub 2k£ for that bike is a steal, and it sounds awsome,.cheers,.
i'm from the Netherlands and i even know this legends shop. they have a really active and helping Facebook page what makes driving Aprilia a fantastic experience. if you have aprilia be sure to check there website they ship world wide and have some neet upgrades and info on there.
Awesome to have a specialist, who is so enthusiastic and conveys it so well on vid. Class
I bought one of these new back in the day. Best bike I ever had. Took it to Italy. Brilliant!
Griff and team are first class with knowledge and service 👌
first class ? how much water or how old is the break-liquid ?
Griff is the man, back in the day he’d come down South to work on an RSV in someone’s garage and we would take our bikes around there for some advanced fettling. Jaffa cakes were a favourite come tea time. If Griff says it’s a good bike you’ll be fine.
Griff seems absolute class, and the sound of the bike makes me feel things. Great work.
As a gen1 Tuono owner I am pumped to see this get to the desert.
I honestly find it a bit sad. Such an awesome bike, that might get trashed way too much, to be a proper street bike again :(
But I understand you're thrilled after owning an Aprillia
Griff’s the man with these RSV’s - was a fantastic help in getting my project up and running on the channel 👌 genuinely nice guy
Can't wait for the next BBB looking forward to seeing what boothy is riding
Great to see you guys at motorcycle live thanks for stopping and having a chat with me Al
Gutted! I thought this vid was gonna be showcasing boothy's bike
My guess is gsxr1000
Great video, love the team at ap workshops! Griff is always happy to help, and on the end of the phone if needed. Fountain of knowledge, and diagnosed that I had a sprag clutch gone on my borekitted falco instantly, top video. 🤘
Seems a shame to trash a bike that has been looked after.
All that fella needs is a camera, a motorbike and a youtube channel as soon as fuckin' possible
This has brought a massive smile to my face...im already laughing at 1:15 just been having a sad time visiting mum in hospital and this is exactly what I needed to watch some bloody good nonsense.. 🎉🤣.. Ap workshops is ace.. Helped me out a few times 👌👍
I see. I click. It's that simple
I pee. I click. It’s that simple.
Griff is the man, amazing help when I had my RSV and always takes time to chat over problems
I bought my RSV a few months ago and I've bothered Griff several times since then.
Very nice guy with a huge amount of experience. I'm grateful for him and his advice.
Found him thanks to 44teeth 😂
That SP with the shotgun exhaust is beautiful
Its for sale I believe ? There is definitely one on their website
Yup, got to agree with the comments below. Griff and the team have worked on my Falco before. He knows these incredible engines inside out. Griff is a top, top bloke. AP workshops is the place to go if you need work done on your Aprilia.
Do you know what, I really like the mechanic 'Griff' in this clip! His energy and enthusiasm is normally something that is missing with your usual run-of-the-mill mechanics, but he is something else! Good luck on your journey lad, I will be following 👍👍
I was little worried that this bike might have some hidden gremlins, but after this I believe Aprilia will be the champion of the BBB
Oh man! That poor bike is going to be in for one hell if an adventure.
I have an 03 Mille so have been watching this battle with interest.
You've gone to the best possible tech you could go to for your Aprilia. Griff is the master.
Great job, it's alway a pleasure to watch a mechanic who know his way through old bikes.
Griff is a gem!! Needs a channel!
He features a lot on the AP workshops channel
Great to see Griff get rid of that air box seal thing, i did mine , back to standard thinking i hope im doing the right thing here!😃
Now I feel bad for that poor bike, it seems way too nice for such a horrific set of roads. Next time get some old Teneres or something, or would that be too easy 😄
People are asking silly money for the reintroduced Ten, and finding an old carb fed one that isn't in kit form (with missing bits) ain't likely to happen.
It's survived British roads so Africa should be a breeze
That Mille is actually too nice for you to destroy in the desert... But at least it's being ridden.
Griff is a legend
Your going to win this hands down
Stick with an oiled type of air filter for the desert, I live in alice Springs, and from experience, standard dry element filters don't stop fine sand from getting in.
What a great bloke that is, Grif, I hope he'll make another guest appearance someday!
Wasn't expecting Jason Newsted to have that accent, but he's a top bloke - knows his stuff
Never knew Steven from goggle box was also called griff 😂 Learn something new everyday
Monday is saved (again)! Cheers Nige, nice to meet you at Motorcyle Live! Legend 😎
Such a pleasure to see someone so knowledgeable and passionate about his craft
Dude, you owe your friend big time! You are so lucky! A service like that in the States, well who's got that kind of money?
I'm growing attached now and hope this beauty survives! Kudos to Griff what a shop
garage full of Itallian stallions and the flaming ebike has the highest value 😂
Nope. He's got an SP there listed at £28k....
That's a good lad there man who's helped you out you know some good people
Ah man can't wait for this BBB - super excited and so good to get new content regularly
That man is a fkin legend, seems like such a good bloke to hang with, your bike is in good hands Chris
Video “re-record” advert was scotch tape. Maxel was “break the sound barrier” with the bloke sat on the chair.
I had a 2003 Tuono Racing, purchased new one of the first in the UK, one of those bikes you wished you'd never sold. Aprilia V2s are fantastic :-)
I really do love this more in-depth look into bikes as a whole, I could listen the Griff's mancave of knowledge all day :)
This bloke knows what hes doing
Feel rather privileged to own a tuono and live 3 miles from AP lol. Always grt her in with Griff before riding season starts.
I genuinely have a high bar kit (inc longer brake and clutch lines) and bespoke fairing top cowl for that RSV if interested? I bought an RSVR with the conversion and promptly changed it to standard. Even better is the bar is the same anodized gold to match those levers 😂
Im in Rusty 😂 where u at?
What a sound bloke Griff is !
Well now that bike is too nice to destroy in the desert :(
Griff seems like a great bloke for the channel. Looks like he's up for a laugh
That aprilla wizard is a top bloke 👏 bring him on for a few more shows 👌 👍 🏍
Really enjoyed the video. Pleased for you. Good luck to both of you on the adventure.
No matter what he says you are always going to have that Aprilia doubt in the back of your mind, but it should be fun none the less. You know your gonna have your fingers crossed every time you go to start it up though 😂
Superb vlog..I knew Griff would give it his personal touch. I reckon you’ll smash this BBB.
That ain’t no rat …prime Italian stallion ….prepped and big bored by god AKA griff …
You love it really ( and to correct you it’s painted not dipped )
Was interesting see you do do ya media thing
Good to see you both enjoy the history behind the bike, seems a waste now to take it off road ....Hope it proves itself
I thought only tosspots had personalised number plates... 😂
Oh man - that bike is too good to trash in the Sahara..... u should do it up as a budget track day spesh!
Ive got Aprilia forks on my Triumph, i got it upright with bars from a Ducati ST3. Which clamp to the fork not the yoke.
interesting!!
@@FortyFourTeeth There the same forks and yokes as on your bike. At the time i converted my bike there wasnt many bikes with USD forks with upright bars. I went to the bikeshow that year, and found the ST3.
I knew you'd end up taking it to Griff looks like someone spent a fair bit on it luckily struck gold there Chris 👌
0:33 UGH, stacked massive mufflers. 🤢🤮 As if the "single water heater" setup wasn't bad enough there's 2.
EDIT: Man, so glad you and the bike ended in good hands and got things sorted out.
Good luck and looking forward to the next episode.
Check out appie parts in the Netherlands, they dismantle rsv's and tuono's and have a lot of parts.
guys for the love of god, change the fuel connectors to metallic ones and replace the vacuum lines for the clutch. incredible that you left the oem there
I never meet Macanics like this guy seems a great laugh and knows his stuff there all grumpy in Ayrshire Scotland lol
Takes me back to my first litre bike, the mighty 1999 rsv mille! Great bike, loads of fun, I want one now! Lol 👍
I would not have expected that Italian bike to last 40,000, mi😂 ... Nice machine and ready for a beating
1.18 in. I immediately like grif.
Great to see folk having fun... Griff is a legend :)
Seems like you landed on your feet with the Aprilia Chris 😎👍🏻
You lucky genius😂 That Biaggi time machine was a good buy 💸
awesomeness. a wealth of knowledge. I could listen to you guys all day.
This guy is just pure positivity lol, love it
Griff Woolley, hero and saint.
Top stuff, more of this chap please 👍🙏🏁👏
Griff is a ledge, good on ya mate
Always like to see the content for your non-members❤
Well, I know where to take my Aprilia when I buy one again if i'm passing through.
Arnold’s at Burton on trent
Nice SL1000 Falco on the other bench.
I love Griff! Love from Canada. Tuono v4
ty
How bad can it be.? …I’m thinking, pretty bad, 😜 having watched the last video….lol , All the best Grif…🤙👍🇮🇲
Thank the (insert spiritual following name here) for the 44teeth Monday night content.
Ventura luggage system for the mille. I've seen a few on Ebay
Great chatting with you on Saturday! Cracking vid
Great video and great technician.
22:39 Well yes, it's literally hundreds of thousands of years old.
What a legend Griff is
Can't wait, what a ruddy good run down of the beast 😄
So it looks rougher than it actually is. Result, my money is on the Aprilia.
R1 who?
What a f*cking brilliant guy and place. I love the fact that these places exist. So now. Team #aprilia or stay with the sensible odds?
Griff is a legend!
