  • Just a quiet ride of reality. Running errands and taking care of business all day on a Honda monkey 125cc mini bike. Time to start saving money and fuel. There was NO reason to use a huge SUV for most of our everyday average commutes. We have to start practicing conservation NOW. It’s not popular but it’s about to be weather you want it to be or not.

    Remind me of my metallic blue Honda sl70 😵.
    It's amazing the scooters and mini bikes we had in the seventies you can still get in a 2022 design , same with cars look at the Challenger and mustangs.
    It's an amazing time to be alive if you're interested in technology.
    And look at cars like the Tesla four door sedan is faster than most supercars and your kids to school in it .
    Be well Farmer ✌️

    The noise is known as "spark knock". People don't realize that engines are designed to run certain types of fuel and when you switch it up, you'll get that..and worse mileage. Go by the manufacturers recommendation.

  • @linmcdon1662
    @linmcdon1662 2 роки тому

    Fuel should be used according to what the manual states. The last three vehicles 🚗 I have had, the manual listed that 87 should be used or damage could occur.

    They feel very tiny around traffic. Keep your head on a swivel. Anticipate being the slowest in traffic going uphill. My Z125 is a blast. I just have to keep in mind that 55 mph (gps) with the wind on my back is as fast as I’m able to go. It can get up to 70 mph drafting a truck on flat land with a +1 front sprocket. Oh and if you park and walk away there’s a chance it ends up in the back of a van.

    Its freaky when people call you from 50 years ago wanting to know if anyone in family still has their old bike because they want to buy it. Sounds like something is loose on your bike and needs a tune up. Have it checked out.oh that makes sense if bike calls for unleaded. Leaded gas will clog up engine up. WHAT YEAR IS THE BIKE? My man had a honda dealership . could be just a fouled plug. So get extra spark plugs and gaskets in case you will ever need to rebuild the carburetor down the road.😁

    Good morning! Why not buy a full sized adventure bike? That's what I have been looking at. You can ride further, faster, road and trail with a luggage rack for your camping gear or bugout bag. I have narrowed my research to the Triumph 850 or 900. I used to ride a Harley Street Glide back in the day and Harley has the new Pan America Adventure bike but I think it's too heavy for trail riding to me. If I drop it in the back country I want to be able to pick it up myself.

    • @leadfarmer73
      @leadfarmer73  2 роки тому +1

      Because I have a Harley Davidson 1300 ultra classic I don’t need to look cool or go any faster than 65mph. Times are getting tough. Time to conserve. I haven’t rode my Harley since my last video with me riding it last summer. It’s for sal now because I don’t ride it very much anymore. I promise, if you ride a mini motorcycle like a Honda monkey or Honda grom or kawasaki 125 you will never be the same. It will change your life. I guarantee it!

      @@leadfarmer73 I get that. I got rid of my Harley about 4 years ago because I wasn't riding it much with my arthritis. I need a smooth bike with great suspension though. I plan to use this adventure bike as a bugout/camping/errand running bike so I think the full size is better for me.

    Do I need a motorcycle license? I've been looking at motor scooters 50c 150c. I know I don't need a license for those but I would like something with a lil more power being that now this means of transportation has almost become a necessity.
