Don’t change mate 👍. Keep swearing, no need to speak clearer. Think Rab C Nesbit on two wheels. 😁 I considered an air intake, but I ended up just going for a KNN replacement filter. Was only about £40 and decided it’s probably more weather proof.
Another great vid Mike, I'm just making my way through all your others now 😂 ..... true what you say about what's on our doorstep (I'm 5 mins from you). I need to shift my ass and get the bike out. I'll look for the group in your description cos you're making me want to BUY an old and slow 'something' now! 😊
We're pretty lucky around here for what we have! If you search for Small, Old and Slow of Facebook you should find the group if you haven't done already.
Great video Yodagoat, you are spot on about the HA and feeling the cold more. Howz aboot a wee trailer for touring, better than all those bags piled up behind you. That suggestion of an Italian trip to bag a Piaggio three wheeler still sounds epic. Enjoyed the wee jaunt down through Inveresk Village, used to work there in the '70s. Cheers man
Another entertaining videos.Totally agree with putting bikes off the road for winter,a scottish one will ruin them pretty quickly.Keep up the good work
Great vid again Mike! I'm loving my Monkey too and looking forward to having more "mini" adventures this year. I am away when this is on 😢, or I was going to do the Sare Erse, which is part of the Numb Bum Challenge, leaving from Wanlockhead. - could be one for you?
I've seen it! I'm a bit wary or large group rides as it can often be inexperienced riders a going a bit too quick and a bit too close to each other, I'm definitely interested in it though!
Ah! Sorry. I think I had this mixed up with a different run. I think I may have something else on at that time too but I'll give it a proper look. Numb Bum Run it's called?
Mike thank you for another grand film. I love the wee Monkey Bike. You are looking for suggestions. I'm old and I like old so the Cub films are my favourites. I know it's not so comfortable or efficient but it has character. I drive an old C15. I don't trust it an inch but it has character. You are always interesting but I'm afraid I wouldn't watch cooking! There are others who would enjoy that so don't decide your channel on my views but you were asking for opinions. I actually don't think you could make a boring film. We are coming out of winter and the salt will soon be away. I'm looking forward to getting out. You have good trips and keep well. God bless. HughJ
Thanks Hugh! Honest feedback is always the best and ALWAYS welcome here. While the monkey will feature more in upcoming videos the Cub is far from forgotten and there's plans for more cub videos too. Who knows, if I can get you into a cooking/bike video it may work. If I make a video like that I hope you'll give me some feedback. If you think it's crap be sure to tell me. All the best. Mike.
Great vlog, I ride the Honda Dax ST 125 stock.. can you do a top speed run on a straight road, (if that exists in Scotland 😅😅) , now that the bike is run in, on a not so windy day, so we can get a sense of how fast the little monkey is with the Yoshimura exhaust… ride safe, my Honda mini bike brother!
I'll be honest, the Yoshi doesn't actually make much of a noticeable difference. I've got a few high speed runs on my earlier videos but I'll do another one soon.
oh jings, didn't know, you had a health scare ? I am getting old and really feel the cold much more than I ever did before. I used to ride through Winter when I commuted to work, now I'm retired I can't believe I did it :) Stupidity I think :) MInd my K75 looks like a sea anchor :))) OBTW I'm Fat, slow and old :)
Aye, was in hospital with stage four heart failure and a big clot in my heart this time last year. I made a bunch of videos about it called Heart Failure On A Honda. The sound is bit crap on them at times as my mic wasn't the best.
Not much improvement in diction mate but I can understand you, perhaps I'm assimulated to the accent. Could be that Chris has the southern drawl. Swearing is getting worse 😂

Aye, I wouldn't want to lose the airbox I don't think. They seem to have trouble in the rain with the open filters.
@@yodagoat Yeah, I reckon it’s all well and good on a Sunday fun bike, but with you being an all weather adventurer, keeping the airbox would be wise.
Love your videos keep them coming 👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks! I'll do my best!

I'm no bad at packing light so no need for a trailer! Hopefully! 😂

@@yodagoat you don't ride it as a group. The idea is to do it yourself, in any direction and within the time scale.

I’m trying not to swear more.. what the fuck…
I'm TRYING! Strop booolyngu maaeee!
I'll get the Rothaus and Honey Schnapps in...
Excellent. Pear is the new number one though.
A tour of the west coast of Ireland.
Not a bad shout!
Sounds like you are g to have a busy 2024 when the weather improves, looking forward to watching the adventures.
Fingers crossed man!
I got a heated vest .
So has my dad! He loves it.

You Tube /The Sweary Biker ?.😅
Ha ha! That could have been great. Better than "Yodagoat" named after a statue in Haddington and a t shirt ok the laundry pile. 😂

Saying I'm no swearing it's a load of shite! I'm fucken reformed! 😂
You not swearing Mike 🤣😜😁
Only good thing not swearing on here is monetising your channel - running my 350 on the money earned now 😁
Ha ha! They still let me monetise mine even with my expanded vocabulary. 😂😂
