      @@yeahbee8237 pretty common for Born Again Christians. They always come across more genuine and true about their faith. It can sometimes spill over in to becoming a bit of a fundamentalist about their faith but usually they are the nicest Christians you'll find. I say that as a total Agnostic who doesn't like organised religions as a rule but have absolutely no issues with personal faith and belief, whatever gets people through their day as long as it doesn't hurt anyone else then all power to them.

    I learned how to ride on a red 1983 Yamaha Maxim 650 my brother bought when I was 19. I hated! Hated! Let me stress...HATED!..the way that bike sounded since my buddies rode Harleys and I couldn't afford one...but would ride it anyway..because hey...it was a free bike for me to ride. Now I'm 55 and the sound of this bike in this video is exactly the same way I remembered it. But now..I LOVE! LOVE! Let me stress LOVE THE SOUND OF THIS BIKE! Brings back lots of great memories. I pray George is blessed with it. And I love how you guys pray up with your customers before they ride away. BTW..my claim to fame is I'm the guy whose ribs Sean broke at the 1:00 min mark of his birthday video...hahaha..thanks for that! God bless guys!

    @dandelay8639 5 лет назад

    You guys are so awsome! I built my first bike with my fathers old lawn mower engine after it caught fire and he just burried it with dirt to put it out. I used an old bicycle, bent a metal rod to support the enngine over the front wheel, drilled a hockey puck and attached it to the shaft, bolted the engine onto a peice of plywood and hinged it over the front wheel support. I had the cleanest rim in town! 25 cents of gas and drove everywhere. I was about 10 years old when I did this. Needless to say, many real bikes later and 40 years, I'm fortunate enough to still ride! Great videos and great storey!

      My first bike was a silver '82 Yamaha Seca 550 shaft drive with the blue trim. She wasn't very fast but looked fast to me. I paid $750 and she already had 41,000 miles on her. I got her the summer right before I turned 21 and rode her straight out to Cali with two buddies that were in a toyota pick up. She gave me trouble in a rainstorm in Virginia beach the day we left and not a lick of problems after aside from running out of gas a couple times. Cruised through god awful heat in death valley, snow storm through sierras, 18hr deluge through Nebraska and got me all the way home months later in one piece with many a story to tell. Wish I had treated her better n still had her...

My videos might not be as good as these guys, but hoping they help or inspire others to fix bikes. Also, picked the bike up at an auction for $2.75, that's including auction fees so plenty of room to get the bike running and still make a little money on it. The engine was locked up and missing some parts, but it'll get there. Keep up the great videos!

It's in the shop now for a new set of head gaskets. Can't wait to get it back. At 63 I feel like a kid when I ride. Hope I make it to 89. My Uncle is still Kickin' ass at 94. I plan on riding his Old Wing to his funeral in 10 or 20 years.

    I just got my first bike a couple weeks ago. It's the Amazon special X PRO HAWK 250. The torture test I seen on this channel convinced me to give it a chance. I figured for the price it's a good start to learn on and have fun with riding untill I can get a nice cruiser style bike.

      Yea I can discuss it. It was an easy process. I found the bike I wanted on the website I contacted them and set up an appointment. When I got there the bike was ready to go it started right up. I dealt with Caleb and he was extremely cool. Nothing but good vibes

    This was cool. My first was a 1982 Yamaha Heritage Special 450. I rode that bike EVERYWHERE for 3 years. Then it was a 96 Yamaha Radian 650...once again, you couldn't get me off that thing. Very cool watching someone get excited about their first bike.

      @@kaybee7504 yes they are actually pretty collectible- especially in good running condition..that Japanese two-stroke engine is pretty indestructible so most can get running pretty easily and parts are still available for those old bikes..i have continued to keep my eyes on them and in mint condition and low miles i have seen them advertised for $1900 with most at a mid-range of around $1050.

    I have to admit to sharing Sean's enthusiasm for 80's Honda V45 Magnas. I bought one for $750 about 12 years ago, while I was laid off during the recession. I was applying for job after job, trying to find something... anything... I could do. I took a break from searching for work online and came across an ad for the bike, right in the same town where I lived. Previous owner said it had sat in his shed for years, not running due to a bad fuel pump. The bike was gorgeous - beautiful candy apple red color - and barely a scratch on it. He was kind enough to trailer it to my home for me, too. He was right - the fuel pump was bad, but that wasn't the only problem with it. The igniter was bad, too. I found a good used igniter online, but couldn't find an exact replacement fuel pump, so I hooked up a universal low-pressure pump (that met the basic specs for volume and pressure), and the bike started right up. Put in a fresh battery for good measure and drove that bike for 4 years before I sold it for more than I paid for it.
    That wasn't my first bike, though. That distinction goes to a 1972 Kawasaki model S2, 350 triple that my father picked up at an auction for about $300 back in 1987. I rode that bike all over Chicago, until it tried to kill me one day while I was riding to work on the highway and the 2-stroke oil injection pump failed while I was doing 70mph. Fun times.

    My first bike was a 1985 Yamaha Virago 700. I sold it when I upgraded to a 1987 FZ700. Years later, I walked in to the local shop and they had a 1985 Virago on the floor. I bought it again! I've since moved on (again), but I will always have a soft spot for that old Virago.
