Great video as ever, Your reviews of the Suzuki gsxs125 and gsxr125 helped me make my final decision and go for the S so thanks for that! I’m now addicted and already want to do my full license! Keep up the great work and the great content 👊🏻
Chops I've literally just got home after a weeks tour of the Pico's in Spain, but I've watched your vids and now I want to go straight back again!! Awesome bud, looked an absolutely hoot! When are we going?????? 😉👍
You are the funniest biker in the world. I'm laughing my ass off when watching your episodes. Your joy is so contagious. Would love to go on a long trip with so entertaining company. No homo :)
Mr Chops once again you’ve had a pop at Womble about his chicken strips. Please get him a rubbing down block and some 40 grit paper so he can sort this and give it large at Loomies.
Hey Chop, i have the same bike and i love it. Have you changed your gearing at all? Its geared pretty tall and was considering going down a tooth on the front. What do you think?
Great arnt they :-) my gearing is standard but your right its quite tall geared but I quite like that.. I dont ever think I need more pickup in gear and think it could be too much of a wheelie machine of down geared .. If you do it let me know what its like!!
Keep it up wombs and chops! Seriously considering a Tuono factory but at 6ft 5" I may struggle? I hear the KTM 1290R is better suited for taller guys. How tall are you two and how do they compare size wise please?
Phil Aldi I'm exactly 6 foot and I fit perfectly on the tuono but it shouldnt be any smaller. I think with 6 foot 5 you won't be able to ride for long.
what kind of mileage did you get on the sdr ? i'm heading out to do a mini tour in europe but not sure what to plan for... estimating around 180-200 miles per refill to hopefully never go empty
I would say 150 miles easy but will be a push for more Imo.. depends on the roads etc. Mileage range says 220 miles or something when you fill but that's just plain lies hehe
I prefer leather for the protection aspect, but if it had been a wet cold trip I would have gone in textiles for warmth. Its entirely personal preference as the latest textiles are also fantastic
Jo lambie 95 petrol is very bad for your bike mate because of the e10 biofuel that desolves plastics and is bad for the injectors. 98 petrol the good shit💪🏻
You don't even have a clue about petrol obviously In 95 petrol there is a maximum of 5% ethanol E10 is a different type of petrol which contains a maximum of 10% ethanol Every modern bike is designed to work very well with 95 Sure 98/102/105 or higher will be better but you will not experience any disadvantage beside a slight loss of power by using 95 (maybe 1-2 horsepower) And by the way: the injectors are not damaged by 95 as well
so, why don't we set up a swap of sorts. You and your mate come out to southern California and borrow my SDGT and factory, stay at the house....and we cross the pond and borrow yours. Mt Palomar, Mulholland Drive, etc
It's lost the little nipple thing, I added a bolt but was too short after adjusting my rearsets hight. You can't buy just the nipple £90 quid for a whole unit so new longer bolt now added and problem fixed

Seeing you happy makes me happy 🤗
Ouch that’s monster mileage and bringing back bad memories for me 😂 still those roads are definitely worth it. Beautiful! 😍
Cracking vid as always 👌
Yeah crazy weren't we 😥 my arse has not been the same since!
Thank you Mr Lamb Chops, another excellent production. I look forward to your videos, thanks for the hard work.
Thanks Carl appreciated 👍
Chops I've literally just got home after a weeks tour of the Pico's in Spain, but I've watched your vids and now I want to go straight back again!!
Awesome bud, looked an absolutely hoot!
When are we going?????? 😉👍
It's awesome mate isn't it, loved every second even the pain in the arse to come haha. Can't wait to see your videos from your trip 😎😎
Omg chops..you are banging out those miles. Loving the trip mate
Thanks Michael 👍
Entertaining as always.
Another entertaining well done video, looks like you had an awesome time. Nicely done!
@ 3:08 . What a great shot.
Stil enjoying the twisties, keep them coming .
Thanks Chris 👍👍
Great video as usual - but can't you hook your sidestand using your toes? Feels a bit awkward but I found it's the best way on a few sportsbikes...
It's lost the nipple thing, one added now so all good 😎
Sometimes when you're riding in warmer climes the nipple disappears a bit
Loving this trip looking forward to the next part 👍
Thanks Chops for another 17.26 minutes of pure ESCAPISM!!!! Keep em coming brother.🏍🏍🏍🏍🏍🏍
Thanks Deano appreciated 😎😎
I know the RSV is a howling V4 but the SDR, doesn't it sound 💕 Great vid Chops, loving them.
Thanks Nick
Bleeding ears from that intro song
Aprilia still has chicken strips because those roads are not even close to challenging it, unlike the KTM which is clearly maxed...😜
Impressive stamina! Riding for 12 hours is medal worthy ;)
What a beuty of a road trip 👍🏼
The look at that tour
You are the funniest biker in the world. I'm laughing my ass off when watching your episodes. Your joy is so contagious. Would love to go on a long trip with so entertaining company. No homo :)
I really need a Superduke or a Tuono. Let me check real quick which organs I can sell.
Great vid, guys!
Mal Reynolds and you know it well!
Hey Chopsy - can I ask what Kreiga bags you used for this trip?
"I would like to order some pizza, please"
"ok. will be there in 5... 4..3..." ^^
Mr Chops once again you’ve had a pop at Womble about his chicken strips. Please get him a rubbing down block and some 40 grit paper so he can sort this and give it large at Loomies.
Haha 😂😂😂
What a road.
Hi lamp chop lol I have just bought a new-gen3 SDR your review made me pull the trigger keep up the good work Sir .😧🙏👍
You will love it!
Loving the series Chops! What mirrors have you got on your Duke? I think they look great and would like to get them myself.
Thanks matey, they are a Rizima ripoff. Were on when I bought the bike can't remember the name but search Rizoma you will see them 👍
Mate it was too long in the saddle 🤣. No more than 6 a day in the Pyrenees for me 👍
Great bikes bloody good viewing ;)
Why do you climb onto your bike from the right side?
fantastic to see someone make a proper video while using a sense of humour ,too many boring t***s on here
Haha thanks Craig 👍👍
Do you have neck problems because of lack of wind protection on such a long distances in a day?
Amazing but how did your piles hold up Chops?
No piles but I literally had saddle sores for a week after my return 😂😂
Mr Chops.....what an awesome road trip so far, love your work. I have to ask though, what is the story with your side stand man.
Little nipple thing fell off, I added a bolt but was too short. It's fixed now but was so annoying on the trip haha
Hey Chop, i have the same bike and i love it. Have you changed your gearing at all? Its geared pretty tall and was considering going down a tooth on the front. What do you think?

Awesome sound track.
Hello mr rides What's the best and worse mpg on the duke regards tony fan ;)
Keep it up wombs and chops! Seriously considering a Tuono factory but at 6ft 5" I may struggle? I hear the KTM 1290R is better suited for taller guys. How tall are you two and how do they compare size wise please?

Yes you will struggle Phil, honestly SD suits taller riders better
How are the Pirelli rosso corsa 2 lasting as I'm doing a Europe tour in September roughly 2000 miles on tuono v4 going to put these on
Really well, done 2500 on the rear now and still good life left, I've been very impressed!
I'm watching this after my trip to the dolomites got put on hold. Damn covid
what kind of mileage did you get on the sdr ? i'm heading out to do a mini tour in europe but not sure what to plan for... estimating around 180-200 miles per refill to hopefully never go empty
I would say 150 miles easy but will be a push for more Imo.. depends on the roads etc. Mileage range says 220 miles or something when you fill but that's just plain lies hehe
Lamb Chop Rides yeah found that already, "30 miles left" then cuts out 6 miles later 😂 I'll plan 150 then doesn't hurt to fill up early
Could you provide a link where to get the fuel cap you have please.
Do you recommend doing such tours covered in leathers? Can't decide if i should buy a new leather or textile suit.
I prefer leather for the protection aspect, but if it had been a wet cold trip I would have gone in textiles for warmth. Its entirely personal preference as the latest textiles are also fantastic
Check out Aerostich.
Can you provide the link for the review mirrors please?
Great roads but too long in the saddle for me, even on a GS😬...with his knee Womble needs a GS too😆😆
Two GS's please BMW 😂

It's coming don't worry 😃
Τhe sequel mate come on .....Great trip

What tail tidy is that?
Hardened pillow biters - Haha!!
What's that sort of vest that you use?
It's an ogio flight vest. Link in description 👍
so, why don't we set up a swap of sorts. You and your mate come out to southern California and borrow my SDGT and factory, stay at the house....and we cross the pond and borrow yours. Mt Palomar, Mulholland Drive, etc
Superduke selfies.... 🤣 🤣 🤣
Switchback mountain?......more like Brokeback Mountain!🤪🤪🤪🤪😜
Haha oh yes 😣😣😥
Beautiful evening now. Finished work cooked dinner beer in my hand watching chops riding in Popadoms ;-)
All l need now is sexy time 😂
Haha, just use Wombles image with the long golden locks for you sexy time and job done 😂😂
That side stand is annoying, you get a new one?
It's lost the little nipple thing, I added a bolt but was too short after adjusting my rearsets hight. You can't buy just the nipple £90 quid for a whole unit so new longer bolt now added and problem fixed
You spoiled the video for me by playing music over the top...I had to stop watching it
👍👍🇨🇦
akra
Lol
I have been declined pump access for wearing a helmet let alone trying to go in store with one still on.
Only ever been asked to remove it once, very annoying. I don't go back to garages who ask for it to be removed
Lamb Chop Rides you are legally required to remove it
@@headout3116, I'm not putting my £600 Arai down anywhere there might be petrol or it could be dropped
@@michaelblake2862 Then hold on to it
@@headout3116 No need to. I'll just wear it. And there is no law saying it needs to be removed.
