Recently passed my Mod 2. Did some filtering today in slow moving traffic on a busy dual carriageway. What a joyous experience it was passing all the car drivers. Thanks for the vids RJ, I really enjoy watching them.
Just be careful man, you need to do all the looking for them. Car drivers don't pay enough attention. I own a car and bike so can speak from both sides of this and it's painful to see the consequences. Ride safe brother
On the way back from picking up my first ever bike I had to filter standstill M25 traffic with panniers and a top box on. I was thankful I didn't scrape anyone but it felt great skipping my way to the front of it all. Welcome to the club :)

Hey RJ, Thank you so much for posting your excellent videos. I have lived vicariously through your lens for a few years now and finally decied it time to do it myself. You've been a huge inspriation for me to finally get my motorcycle license. I'm currently half way though my Motocycle Safety Course here in the US this weekend, up in the northern part of Califonia on the coast. I'm turning 40 years old this summer and realized I am not getting any younger and making excuses isn't a life well lived. Thank you so much. Your quality is second to none. Cheers, mate!
The car at 0:31 is a Sterling Nova kit car, based on a VW Beetle. I've spotted that exact car in Hyde Park, it's so low to the ground! Also I recommend googling it, the entire canopy lifts up and it looks very cool :)
Like Moto Groover, I also thought that it was a "Purvis Eureka". However, Wikipedia on a page titled "Automotive Design and Development Ltd" informed me that the " Nova" was licensed to be built in Australia as "Purvis Eureka" in Austria as the "Ledl", in France as the "Défi", in Italy as the "Totem" and "Puma", in New Zealand as the "Scorpion", in South Africa as the "Eagle", in Switzerland as the "Gryff", in the United States as the "Sterling" and "Sovran" and in Zimbabwe as the "Tarantula", all of which were designed to be powered by Volkswagen engines.
5:19, for me, the best sounding 600 and one of the best sounding 4-cylinder bike too... the Yamaha XJ6. And it's not straight piped, if so it's just heaven.
Just want to say, I've been watching you for years upon years. I never got a bike living in London because no garage and high insurance. Now I've moved out I recently passed my mod 2 and you was one of my first inspirations for riding, so thank you!
I thought so! My father in law had one lurking under a tarpaulin in his garage for years, eventually sold it as he didn’t have the time to get it running. Were they loosely modelled on a Ford GT40?
The car at 0:37 is a Purvis Eureka. Its a kit car from OZ! They were popular in the late 70’s & 80’s. Good to see one made it to london. Theyre a full fibreglass shell. They used to put VW beetle engines in them, but i remember reading somewhere in the 90’s some bloke shoe horned a V8 donk in there. Boom!
the car at 40secs is a Nova Delta kit car, i think ive seen that one a few times at the Ace Cafe on classic car night. the whole cockpit/windscreen hinges up to get in and out, they are crazy looking. vw beetle chassis i think so engine hanging out the back
No its not. Its a Pervis Eureka from AU. Late 70’s kit car. They used the VW beetle motor in them. But ive read in the 90’s a bloke had a V8 in his. Theyre full fibreglass body. Cheers groover.
@@motogroover2789 that is possible, they do look very similar however im fairly certain it is a Nova. not saying its impossible, but no one in their right mind would import a kit car like this from Australia to the UK, you would be spending multiples in the cars value just in shipping and tax. especially as these things were not worth much back in the day
I have to agree with Dan k as my mate bought a second hand nova kit car back in the 90’s and got stuck in it on a hot summers day for 2 hours when the battery went flat and he couldn’t raise the windscreen/roof section. H&S not much of an issue back then 😂

Sorry about using the same reply in the comments twice.
Your patience is amazing. One of the biggest reasons I'm scared to get on a bike or even a car is because I think I'll get in a fight with someone instantly.
Never been to London but the streets look packed. I can only imagine starting reeeeally early if you ever wanna be somewhere on time. I maybe wrong tho.
I pick up a new 2021 Ktm Duke 390 next week. It's been about 35 years since I owned a motorcycle. I've ridden about 10 different bikes and looking forward to it. You should get a sales commission RJ. Always love watching your super duke and Nuda vids. Thank you.
6:55- Well...At least his socks matched his vest...🤔 Really enjoy your videos...as long as you keep the classic throttle blip.. (BANG)... "Ohhhhh..." Intro...👊
The sound of that Husqvarna is just something else. RJ, if you dont mind telling me, what sort of price range are we looking for the modifications kit? Like exhaust and everything, I mean that sound is literally a killer man. I love it.
6:40 and that is how I got knocked off two years ago pretty much right on the spot. I only use the middle and right lanes now going round that simply to avoid idiots cutting out..
What kind of windproof do you use? It's good to hear only the sound of you nice bike. Is the microphone inside your helmet or it's windproof somehow? Can you please direct me where to buy or at least how does it look? Its my biggest problem about wind while im driving. Thank you in advance. :)
2:35 I've had a few bus drivers that wave me on also, im on a 125 aswell which is suprising they care lol, i always let them out when they indicate so maybe its their way of saying thank you.
Not a place to chat I agree. Nor was it a place to speed at around 40 in a 20 limit!!! I think the man in the van said he’ll see you next Tuesday or Thursday maybe 🤔
im 16 and just got my first bike. its a yamaha tzr 50 from 2005. its 50cc but thats all u can drive at this age in the netherlands. so far i love it. its tops at 70kph. (the law is 45kph) it aint fast but its a start
Hi there Jordanian.. I am from Bangladesh and you are the inspiration I started motovlogging. I dont care who you are beneath the helmet but I do care you are the inspiration to millions. I dont have a Nuda or something.. I own a 125cc Yamaha Enticer.. But still.. The thrill is same as yours brother... Cheers...
why do most drivers never move over for bikes . They bang on about having to be held back by cyclists yet they never move over when they cause traffic . No way I'm moving over for them anymore
Hey RJ, enjoy all your content, a question, all of your bikes have loud exhausts, I have a street triple with an arrows can which isn’t so bad, but my son has in the last few fitted a pair of SC Project exhausts (the moto GP ones) on his 696 Ducati monster, yes they do sound awesome 😂 but so so loud… so what I wanted to ask is have you ridden any of your bikes abroad ? And did you have any issues with euro police due to the noise? We want to ride to Normandy in may and I’m a little concerned that the French won’t appreciate the sound of Rossi rumbling through their quiet villages 😂
Hiya R.J. yet another great video much respect to u from east dulwich, just 1 question for u what was the make and model of that beautiful black motorbike where u said beautiful and the rider said thankyou back as I couldn't quite see it on the vid, good luck on future outings✌ PEACE✌.

Filtering is a joy, straight to the front. Watch out though, I saw I guy pull across the middle in his car knocking a guy off filtering on his bike.

0:33 NOVA Kit car based on old VW Beetle floorpan, has a cool electric or hyrdraulic lift roof!

It was a 70s Nova Kit car based on a VW Beetle. A neighbour had one when I was a kid in the late 70s early 80s..Not seen one in ages..👍👍
I thought it was a chevron at first but not sure if they are road legal
@@garyforshaw3707 the Nova took some inspiration from the Chevron. The Nova had a Canopy roof and no doors. Looked great back in the day.
@@pauln0371 You can still get them.
It was used as the basis of the Condormobile in the film Condorman (1981).
Thanks for clearing that up.
Another great DAILY OBSERVATIONS, RJ. Bless you and many thanks for sharing with us 👌👌👌
3:21 Of course, BMW going through an extremely ripe Red light. smh
Anyways, great video as usual RJ!

Bike at the end is beautiful, shame about the feet on the floor riding lol
Hello RJ your an inspiration for alot of people including me. Your one of the reasons i started riding 3 years ago. Life is good thank you very much.
Not very often RJ is out cooled but I think a 1954 Vincent Black Shadow takes it!
No the guy riding it reduced the coolness factor by skiing and duckwalking.
You could sell that and buy several Nuda's and have some change.
@@stimpsonjcat26 Not to mention the socks.

Nice one RJ...boils my blood when idiots are crossing the road looking at their phones....
Hi RJ, the blue car is 1980s kit car called a Nova, based on a VW Beetle.
Never been to London but the streets look packed. I can only imagine starting reeeeally early if you ever wanna be somewhere on time. I maybe wrong tho.
It's fine on a motorcycle 😀
@@soyebaswat5382 only on a motorcycle 😅
Central London, almost as clean as Munich, Germany! Another great compilation RJ👌
I’ve watched your videos since I was like 17, I’m 25 next month and I’ve finally booked my DAS course for my birthday…excited is an understatement
Enjoy and good luck
Hi RJ, @40 seconds the blue car was a 170's NOVA kit car.
Nice to see London looking back to normal
I pick up a new 2021 Ktm Duke 390 next week. It's been about 35 years since I owned a motorcycle. I've ridden about 10 different bikes and looking forward to it. You should get a sales commission RJ. Always love watching your super duke and Nuda vids. Thank you.
6:55- Well...At least his socks matched his vest...🤔
Really enjoy your videos...as long as you keep the classic throttle blip.. (BANG)... "Ohhhhh..." Intro...👊
But he cant ride for shit
Minute 6:50, that happens everyday in Lima-Perú :s. At least in London they use turning signals
Very nice video RJ, sometimes i hear you go up the A4 in West Kensington 🤣
I want to see RJ on a modded 890 duke R. I really think it's a worth predecessor of the Nuda.
Nice DO again RJ. Too bad it’s rather short. Could watch videos like this for hours (and I do sometimes🤪). Thanks.
6:42..that lorry driver was on the ball..👍👏
It's good seeing London being alive again after the pandemic, coming to visit this summer hopefully!
6:31 What is the car on the sidewalk doing!?
The sound of that Husqvarna is just something else. RJ, if you dont mind telling me, what sort of price range are we looking for the modifications kit? Like exhaust and everything, I mean that sound is literally a killer man. I love it.
#RoyalJoranian im so stoked for you, i remember when you were at 5k subs congrats man
0:40 It think it's name is Sterling Nova
Thanks for the name, I didn't know this one !
Purvis Eureka from AU. 70’s kit car with VW beetle motor in a full fibreglass shell cheers.
6:40 and that is how I got knocked off two years ago pretty much right on the spot. I only use the middle and right lanes now going round that simply to avoid idiots cutting out..
That exhaust sound sosooooo intoxicating, ❤️ it.
What kind of windproof do you use? It's good to hear only the sound of you nice bike. Is the microphone inside your helmet or it's windproof somehow? Can you please direct me where to buy or at least how does it look? Its my biggest problem about wind while im driving. Thank you in advance. :)
RJ records the sound with a separate device, a Zoom H2n, with the microphone in his jacket. At time of editing the images and the sound are combined.
Hahaha that white scooter driver fell after the fist bump 🤣🤣🤣🤣
The car at 0:35 is Purvis Eureka
I think it's probably the UK based Sterling Nova version of the same kit car.
2:35 I've had a few bus drivers that wave me on also, im on a 125 aswell which is suprising they care lol, i always let them out when they indicate so maybe its their way of saying thank you.
Demonstrations that are noisy and "disturb the peace" are now illegal, so that most likely explains the relatively quiet protest.
Beautiful sounding bike reminds me of a British 500 single from the 50s /60s. The car was a Nova kit car VW Beetle chassis.
Awesome video ,mate. thank you so much for sharing it
RJ what mirrors do you use on your bike?
Rizoma. See mods on RJ’s website. Address is in the description.
@@edvanandel thanks, didn't notice that q
the bus driving is giving way to the car,also dont overtake when you cant see what on the left..
The car you asked about is a nova, it’s a kit-car based on a beetle chassis
very good video quality in both meanings!
6:30 the car driving over the sidewalk.
I know the laws are different across the pond, but why was that car driving on the sidewalk? (6:26)
i think the blue car at the beginning is a Nova Sterling, a kit car from the seventies based on a VW beetle platform
4:14 does the other biker fall off?
Not a place to chat I agree. Nor was it a place to speed at around 40 in a 20 limit!!! I think the man in the van said he’ll see you next Tuesday or Thursday maybe 🤔

Finallyyyyyyyyyyyyy please more of this Daily series!!!! It's CONTENT! :D
Nice one RJ, thanks. 👍
RJ video drops, turn on the 7.1 and listen to that sweet music.
8:21 a Corvette Stingray ?
I believe the car @0:50 might be a Marcos of some sort.... lovely 70s 80s type car for the flash guy back in the day...

Love you're video RJ love from Thailand🤙❤🔥🇹🇭

Hey RJ, enjoy all your content, a question, all of your bikes have loud exhausts, I have a street triple with an arrows can which isn’t so bad, but my son has in the last few fitted a pair of SC Project exhausts (the moto GP ones) on his 696 Ducati monster, yes they do sound awesome 😂 but so so loud… so what I wanted to ask is have you ridden any of your bikes abroad ? And did you have any issues with euro police due to the noise?

when traveling it is always better to have everything approved, better to avoid unpleasant situations in other countries.
When I did with the BMW I put the baffle in. Not worth the hassle.
Hiya R.J. yet another great video much respect to u from east dulwich, just 1 question for u what was the make and model of that beautiful black motorbike where u said beautiful and the rider said thankyou back as I couldn't quite see it on the vid, good luck on future outings✌ PEACE✌.
It's in the title of the clip. Vincent Black Shadow.
did you give the bus driver the finger or waved? :0
I always thinks that what it takes to be a professional biker like you in traffic. 😂
This is basically a roady ASMR video good for tingles in the daytime if you don't want to worry if your gonna fall asleep lol!!
Does the Vincent not have foot pegs?
Some cars I can tell you right away what they are. But that blue thing might be a body to put on a VW Beetle frame / chassis . But I could be wrong.
05:15 he may have outfiltered you RJ??
But he looks a bit silly with his left leg stuck out and his right indicator on all the time
That was way too fast, I find RJ hits it spot on, plenty of progress without going nuts.
Did everyone else saw the 3 legged doggy?
Awesome dude
Hi great videos what mirrors are they . They looks really cool
