For real though me and my friend were just riding bikes on our block and these two kids jumped us for our bikes. They stole my $700 bike and my friends bike he only had his bike for a day and they held us at gunpoint they’re bigger than us, but we still got them on the ground but we couldn’t stop them when we seen the gun we lit off but we finally got our bikes back thankfully and everybody was OK except for me I had a couple bruises on my side, where he punched me.
You need a 9mm or at least a .380 just in case someone tries to gank you. Like the saying goes “I’d rather have it and not need it than need it and not have it.” A couple of them dudes had hate in their eyes but I’m glad it’s mostly people showing love. Thanks for the video bro. Stay up. Aight.. ✌🏽
6:29 DUDE i was just at that dead end like last month, i was like okay maybe i can push the gate open and it didnt open lmaooo, also it was mad sus cause there are always ppl tweaking out around there LOL
Same problem I get so hyped about going to ride outs and seeing everyone, then when I get there I’m so chill and don’t feel like talking to anyone hahaha
I just moved to downtown LA on Los Angeles st after living in south central, Hollywood, the valley. I like the area cus of accessibility I can walk everywhere to tons of food spots/bars/shows/staples hated having to drive places in traffic. Homeless problem yes but they don’t bother you and mind their business and things look sketchy at night but haven’t had any issues in the last 5 months living here
The dude with the bike he made me and my friend used to make those in high school. I lived in Florida and we would take beach cruisers and just throw a 50cc engine on it and call it a day. My buddy and I used to build them and sell them to people at high school. The good old days we and people in Florida called them Swifty’s lol
This ebike video you made his freakin' rockin'! That is the ultimate in Extreme street blast BMX! Man! Hahaha!😆 5th and gives you the freedom to go anywhere and the speeds you're able to acquire are incredible! You've got it all man! Freedom to go up and down stairs? Take jumps,
I didn't get a chance to finish what I was saying.. Hahaha!😆 Great versatility with an e-bike! Dude that's like racing a 125 Yamaha around the city without anybody to stop you or say anything! I mean what are they going to do? Two dead thing is the ultimate BMX ditch machine.. hahaha!😆 Freakin' awesome!
I live in DTLA because not many places around here have lofts for rent. I can also walk to LA Live without paying $40 for parking, and there’s a ton of concert venues around here also. There’s never a shortage of things to do, places to eat, etc.
Cecil Hotel used to have a bunch of weird stuff happen there. It's about a block away from where he mentions it. He could be referencing something else though I'm not sure.
I was watching one of your videos and my girlfriend that doesn't watch or indulge in any extreme sports literally fell in love with your videos overnight , even though she vomits after every video cause it makes her nauseous🤣🤣🤣
You should do a part around Union station with little Tokyo stop. Looks quite historical but also sketchy, can’t believe people would work in the area on daily basis.
That Porsche was a seventies Porsche factory color which was called “ Strawberry Fraise “. I once owned a 51 Mercury with factory Suicide rear doors (4 door) Convertible, White Tuck & Roll Seats with Strawberry Piping & Burgundy carpet. It had Twelve Coates of Strawberry Fraise paint & 3 Coates of Pearlescent Clear Final Finish Paint. That’s how I know the Porsche Color. Cool Huh! I will dig out the photos & Send you a couple.
I live in a run down city in England and I'm surprised how much rubbish is on the streets of America. If that was in my city the local council would clean it up.. and crap how many random tents are around.. Keep up the videos.. enjoy watching them.. so interesting Keep
I'm awkward af too in person, 😭i understand the feeling, i've met some of my internet friends in real life and feel like an alien trying to communicate
Democrat Policies. 90+ years voting ONLY DEMOCRAT and in 90+ years, the city has only gotten worse. Results speak for themselves, ay? It's a shame what Democrat Policies result in. More people gotta open their eyes.
That Porsche color is called Ruby Stone Red it’s one of their Paint To Sample colors which is Porsches custom program for those Guys with deep pockets!
I live in Skid Row for 15 years. I don't miss that crap hole. Be careful when riding down there. I've seen people out of my window get jacked for a crappy bicycle.
a surron power upgrade trust me its life changing electro n co has a 500 dollar controller its budget but its absolute butter smooth its olive oil smooth perfect no tuning needed and chi batteries has like a 72 v battery the power is amazing u can ride on highways n shi
Fckn aye I love these vids, last sat my bike was taken at gun point from me at belvedere skate park in east Los Angeles around 8am so anything is possible at anytime man please be careful out there
Did you flash your glock at the guy and say "try it" I never venture into DTLA without protection. I live in Burbank. I don't need to be strapped in Burbank. But in DTLA most definitely.
The key to life "dont stop"!
“Just keep swimming” -Dori
@@joncarver2965what do we do we swim!
Can't stop won't stop

The key to life is "FTW" 🐸..change my mind
This video is actually good because it teaches you how to be safer in not so safe areas. Thanks man!

Fully agree
@@btowngolfr812 no it's not lol
It's annoyingly difficult to legally get a gun here tho lol. Not impossible, just a huge pain in the ass
The color of the porsche 911 at 1:02 is called 'Rubystone' and its one of the most beautiful color for 911's mo
That was a Grand National, GNX's have vents in the front fenders, fender flares & different wheels.
only started watcing this winter but love what you do and I never miss a video! keep doing your thing hommie and stay safe :D
6:29
DUDE i was just at that dead end like last month, i was like okay maybe i can push the gate open and it didnt open lmaooo, also it was mad sus cause there are always ppl tweaking out around there LOL
9:30 - I got one of those. They have whole engine kits. I built one from a Beach Cruiser bicycle. Thing is Pissah.
Awesome videos. I worked Skid Row LAFD Station 9. Wild times back in the 80's.
Same problem I get so hyped about going to ride outs and seeing everyone, then when I get there I’m so chill and don’t feel like talking to anyone hahaha
You're the man John! Thanks for the tour, and that bike looks so damn fun!
Love watching. Feels like I'm there but not there! Stay safe

John, when are you gonna go down to Compton and go to the neighborhood that the first Friday movie was filmed in? It would be very dope to see.

My buddy and I used to build them and sell them to people at high school. The good old days we and people in Florida called them Swifty’s lol
I learned that same thing in NYC. Don’t stop for any reason except a cop and generally they won’t pull you over either 😂
Although I feel like it would be much safer to do so in NYC lol, I’m from there but never been to LA. LA looks more sketch tbh
16:38 - No L.A. Bike Courier is as committed and Dedicated as the Couriers found in NYC.
It’s always a good day when John posts
This ebike video you made his freakin' rockin'!

Cecil Hotel used to have a bunch of weird stuff happen there. It's about a block away from where he mentions it. He could be referencing something else though I'm not sure.
Bruh.what happened at that spot that went famous? The Rodney king incident? You got me curious

I was watching one of your videos and my girlfriend that doesn't watch or indulge in any extreme sports literally fell in love with your videos overnight , even though she vomits after every video cause it makes her nauseous🤣🤣🤣

Im buying a surron soon thanks to THIS MAN. 💪
I watched the movie Ambulance the other day and recognized locations from your videos haha
How much range do you get on e-bike? How long can you ride with good power?
Magenta, John. The darkerish pink looked like Magenta.

It looked more like Ruby Star Neo to me, but it's hard to tell on video
Love these vids so much man
Lmao key is DONT STOP 🤣 big facts.
I live in a run down city in England and I'm surprised how much rubbish is on the streets of America. If that was in my city the local council would clean it up.. and crap how many random tents are around..
Keep up the videos.. enjoy watching them.. so interesting
Keep
The tents are from homeless people
I'm awkward af too in person, 😭i understand the feeling, i've met some of my internet friends in real life and feel like an alien trying to communicate
Hey John , I enjoy your videos and the Motor on that guy's bike was a 2 stroke and I ride mine all over in Arizona
I'm social awkward too. You have done just fine talking to peeps in my opinion.
Part Time - security guard, Full Time: Robber

Democrat Policies. 90+ years voting ONLY DEMOCRAT and in 90+ years, the city has only gotten worse. Results speak for themselves, ay? It's a shame what Democrat Policies result in. More people gotta open their eyes.

4:14 there is a little girl. So sad bro, that’s no way to live, especially for a innocent kid.
Hello, I love your videos I just was saying what bike lock do you recommend? I just bought a brand new E bike I want to protect it.
I'd say the color is magenta on the Porsche
That Porsche color is called Ruby Stone Red it’s one of their Paint To Sample colors which is Porsches custom program for those Guys with deep pockets!
My friends uncle got robbed at 6to7pm. They took his belt n shoes

I live in Skid Row for 15 years. I don't miss that crap hole. Be careful when riding down there. I've seen people out of my window get jacked for a crappy bicycle.
1:05 I think that Porshe's colour is some shade of fuchsia
Gotta unbox ur new one and ride it bro

The irony of you telling someone to “be safe”. 😂
7:56 thinking of moving to LA 😅
That would def suck

Interested in information on purchasing an ultraB thru You ,email attempts not connecting

Did you flash your glock at the guy and say "try it" I never venture into DTLA without protection. I live in Burbank. I don't need to be strapped in Burbank. But in DTLA most definitely.

Magenta Porsche 😮
