    Can't believe you only started less than a year ago. Great content. Amazing camera , sound and editing work. You are definitely talented in camera work. In addition, you are one hell of a mechanic. Love that you can fix anything no matter what. With that said, here are some feedback. First, please put the videos in a their own playlist for the builds and number them so we can binge easier. Also, if you come up with better titles and thumbnails that UA-cam favors, you will probably have a lot more views and subs. Experiment. Keep up the great work. I wish you much succcess ❤

      I agree with you, except on the titles. They are as humble as the rest of the video. I am no fan of the trend having hyped titles. So for me this is just fine. I have just subscribed as well.

    A blue XS360 was my first bike. I bought it new in 1978. Good to see an XS360 being given some love.

      Very cool, I love imagining the days of these being right off the assembly line.

      @@SimonFordman In the late '70s I would ride from Lewiston, Idaho (where I was working) to visit friends and family in Seattle, Washington. The trip was about 300 miles - man did my fingers buzz after that ride!

    I dig those retro harness boots. I had a pair back in 73. Still cool.

    LOL. My friend used to have one of those back in the day when we were both in Jr. High School. I rode on it a few times. It was very smooth. Exact same color, etc. It was new at the time.

    Just love your bike videos too... as I have limited abilities (health) myself I suspended many things but would like to support you a little with your work. Just let me know where how as you have no patreon or something. Cheers, Ruud from the Netherlands
