I Went To Bike Night On My Triumph Bobber!!

- I wanted to wait until I had my full licence before hitting up my local bike night here in Ryde on the Isle of Wight. Around 200 bikes normally turn up each week, luckily the sun came out just before it started. Loads of cool modern, vintage, and custom motorcycles lined the esplanade. In this video I'm riding my Triumph Bobber Stealth 🥷🏾🚀

I reckon you have got an ideal bike for the IOW roads, bigish high torque engine, nice relaxed upright riding position without all the high rev drama of a sport bikes cramped leg position. I passed my mod 2 on 20th June and have just completed 1700 miles on My HD Heritage Classic and so much enjoying myself. I am lucky because where I live in Norfolk I can go to bikes meets every night of the week traveling 7-50 miles each way at the most. It is really surprising once you start chatting to other bikers how many friends you will make at these Bike meets. Have Fun Tommy🙂
I agree, there is little opportunity to gun it, so a nice upright riding position is perfect for sightseeing! You are lucky to have all of those around you. I'm hoping to get to some others on the south coast next year. Your bike sounds nice, enjoy it!
That custom black and red Yamaha MT-07 at 15:35 is beautiful :O I managed to pass my Big boy license this week (17-09-2024) so I'll be looking around for my big boy bike :)
It is lovely, isn't it! Congratulations, what bike will you be going for? Custom black and red MT-07?
@@TwoWheelsTommy I like Scrambler-esque type bikes, something along the lines of the Triumph Bonneville T120 or the Ducati Scrambler but at the end of the day it'll be what I can afford haha
@PhilSimpsonUK Both lovely bikes. Have you seen the new Triumph Scrambler 400X ?
The thing about bike meets is it gives you somewhere to go. Also helps you become part of the community and find friends to ride with if that's your thing. I go to about 3 a week, charity runs and memorial runs just to talk bikes. But they are all very boring and I usually want to leave the minute I get there but I stick it out for about 30 mins and I have to leave. I'm a bit of an introvert and am trying to be more friendly 😂 I totally get where you are coming from but you should go as they are a great bunch.
Yes the more I think about it the more I enjoyed it. I think I need to immerse myself in it and talk to people. As it happened, on Monday I spent all the time getting footage rather than 'doing' the bike meet. I shall go again. I am with you on that, I used to go to car meets all the time when I was younger and chat to anyone. But now (Since having a kid!) I just crave peace and quiet 🤣 and I'm less of a people-person. I will try a group ride sometime 👍
It's great getting out riding, especially when the weather is nice.
Yeah, bit of a chill in the air today though! Can't wait for next summer 😀
Great stuff Tommy, you can't beat a decent bike meet. Indeed one of the best in the UK is just a ship and trip away from you at Poole Quay on a summer Tuesday evening. Every summer there is a one-off meet at Cassington near Oxford. I went this year and would guess in excess of 5,000 bikes there! What an evening it was.
I ride to Poole 2 or 3 times a season as I love the atmosphere there. It's a 350 mile round trip for me but well worth it.
Yes the more I think about it the more I enjoyed it. I think I need to immerse myself in it and talk to people. As it happened, on Monday I spent all the time getting footgae rather than 'doing' the bike meet. I shall go again. Poole does sound interesting and as you say not far from here!
Nice video thanx. I used to love the bike meets near me, when I had my bike, (around Bromley and Kent). Sunday afternoons and Wednesday evenings, you meet all sorts and see loads of bikes, great places to go and be part of a community. Cheers
Thank you, I'm going to go again and get more involved rather than just filming!
Great bike night. Bike is sounding fantastic.
Last time i wasin Ryde was in 1979 on a school trip 😂
Hey John, thank you. You didn't fancy coming back then?! 🤣
@@TwoWheelsTommyI did in the 80s. Many a great family holiday.
Always planned another visit, but haven't managed it yet. Fingers crossed it won't be long.
I remember commenting on your first ride out on your 125 about staying a little bit back from cars at junctions …. and also in the early days of your DAS about shifting up to early on a bigger machine ….. Well look at ye now lad ….. yer one of us …. great bike , and brilliant content 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Haha yeah I have been thinking about what you said ever since. I think that has improved somewhat! I'm with the big boys now, glad you like the Bobber 😀
I love a good bike meet, particularly when the weather is like you just had there
Yeah luckily the weather cleared just in time!
This looks well fun glad to see you out and about mate 🔥💪 Harriet’s looks soooo clean
🫶🏼 thanks lokiiiiiii im obsessed with it
It was fun. Harriets bike is mint 👌
@@TwoWheelsTommy haha thanks Tommy😁
The Bonnie is looking and sounding very nice, Tommy. You know you’ve picked the right bike when you look for any ol’ excuse to go for a ride! 😂
Thank you. Yes, I have 'popped out' on it a few times this week. It is not as good on fuel as my 125 was 🤣
@@TwoWheelsTommy I imagine by quite a margin 😂
You know it! 🤣
Looks like a good bike night Tommy, etiqutte for bike nights is usually, park up, get a beverage, talk bikes, have some grub, talk bikes, ride home ))
I dont know if its just me and this is by no means criticism, but you seem to be riding the triumph much smoother and confidently than the 125, perhaps the heavier bike suits you more ))
Good to know Mark, next time I'll film less and grab a coffee and a burger! I appreicate you saying so, that will be the bike, not me! It is much easier, and nicer to ride.
Another great video Tommy, bike is looking and sounding awesome. Hope you're well mate!
Nice one for the shoutout mate once again was nice meeting you, get yourself down to some more nights when you can, unfortunately approaching winter now but some great nights in the summer when it comes back round 😁
You're welcome. I shall get down again, perhaps next week if the weather is good and time allows. 👍
Nice to see the new bike running well
Yes, I can't wait for it to be run in!
It looks like you are actually enjoying yourself with your new toy 😊. Can I suggest that you get over to the mainland with a rucksack and, have a night away so you can put some proper miles on your Triumph 👍🏍.
I am absolutely loving it Keith! I would love to, bit difficult at the minute with family and work commitments but we'll see. I have a backpack so I'm half way there 😀
Good selection of Bikes Tommy, bet they were happy to have a local island you tube celebrity turn up.. enjoyable watch buddy.
I agree, lovely selection. I have been called many things over the years, but never celebrity 🤣
Great video again Tommy 💪🏼 sorry didn’t get to catch up again during the evening we don’t stay down there very long as we get bored😂 so normally wait for the little group of us to turn up and head off somewhere but I’m sure there will be another time 😁 was good to see the bike in person it looks amazing 😍
Thanks Harriet, we'll catch up more next time. I spent all the time there getting footage so it will be nice to go again without all that. Might grab a burger too 🤣 Glad you like the Bobber 🙂
@@TwoWheelsTommy ye defo shoot me a message when you next head down I’ll make sure I’m there 🙂
@harriet_._05 Will do, need to sort those snaps out too sometime 👍
Very nice sticker on the tank! :)
Thanks, perks of having a sticker business!
@@TwoWheelsTommy ah, nice!! do you have a website?
@forevergrain I do, veloviz.co.uk 👍
Love the Isle of white it’s the last British place that still looks British
For now! I have lived here on 3 separate occasions. Each time it has gone more downhill. Still quite magical though!
I've not watched all your videos.. but it's good to see you've gone from a 125 to a 1200.. and the nice bike it is.. awesome man to see you passed your test completely.. congratulations 👏👏👏👏👏🎉
Thanks Shaun, yes I passed at the end of July and sold my 125 almost immediately. Bit of a dry patch in between whilst I waited for my new bike. Go and watch the rest of my videos 🤣
@@TwoWheelsTommy you done well mate.... It's been a pleasure to watch.. I haven't sat my full test yet I'm still riding on CBT.. I'm making up my mind whether it's for me or not... Unfortunately since buying my bike I've had nothing but problems with it from the garage that I bought it with.. once again it's back in the garage now getting sorted.... First impressions of bike riding aren't good with constant problems with bike.....but, the times that I have ridden bikes is the greatest feeling in the world.
@ShaunUnderwoodx Sorry to hear that. A reliable bike will make all the difference. Can you swap it out for something else? Get past that and you'll love it 💪
@@TwoWheelsTommy for some reason Tommy I never get the notifications to say that you've replied so forgive my lead reply getting back to you.. it's being sorted.. it was the fuel pump.. it's 20/20 registration plate.. it only has a few thousand miles on the clock.. overall in good nick . Unfortunately I believe the last owner didn't look after it as you should always keep your bike maintained to a very high standards as it will save your life.. and the garage that I bought it from here in North Yorkshire seems to be ordering their bits of eBay.. is frustrating but it will get sorted as it still under warranty.. it just seems the bike has spent more time in and out of the garage then actually in my own garage or me riding it.. thank you for all your replies I thoroughly enjoy your channel you're just the normal guy. I don't go for motorbike youtube channels where they're pulling wheelies and who are genuinely riding like crazy. You're just a down to earth person who had the same feelings and emotions I did when I first sat on my bike after CBT I just can't stand riders who ride like lunatics. Sorry for the late reply and thank you for replying to the comment.. keep up the good work mate and keep riding safe..
Some really nice bike there Tommy, inc yours.
Thanks mate, yes I love to see an eclectic mix 😍
I’m with you on the bike nights thing. I love the thought of going for a group ride but just standing around looking at bikes seems pointless to me
Yeah I love looking at all of the different bikes, but I have a short attention span and I hate standing around! That said, the more I go the more people I will know 👍
@@TwoWheelsTommy true that! Yeah me too lol
The best bike there in my opinion is the triumph Tiger 🐯 that is a beautiful machine
Which one?
@@kombat6555 triumph Tiger..
The white one was lovely. I don't recall seeing another but there may have been loads 🤣
@@ShaunUnderwoodx I only ask because there are 2 tigers in the video and one of them is mine 🙂 I do love a Tiger.
Hi Tommy. Nice video fella. I'll catch up with you next Monday and introduce myself if you're about.
Hey thanks. Yes, do that. I might pop along for a bit!
Great stuff. Going next week. Bit of luck. 👍👍
Nice one, the more I think about it the more I enjoyed it. Might see you there!
@@TwoWheelsTommy would be great. Yellow 04 daytona 650 with union Jack on front
@andywrollo2915 I'll try to remember that and keep an eye out 👍
awesome :) i bookedc my das its starts the first week of october nervous as feck think i better get some practice on my little yamaha xsr legacy 125.
Hey, nice one. It is easy to say just relax, no need to be nervous etc... but in reality you have no control over it. I just thought, hundreds of thousands of people have managed it before I did it so just got on with it. I was still nervous though, weirdly much more so on MOD1 than MOD 2. Probably since it was such an arse travelling to the mainland for it!
shockingly few two wheel Tommy stickers....... I hope you remedied it!
I will have to dish some out as they won't be going on this - just the tank sticker 😀
There is some really nice bikes tommy.. there a lot of Japanese made bikes and I hate Japanese made bikes.. but that's just my opinion.. some British made bikes.. fascinating stuff.. one day I will own such a bike...... I am a big fan of motocross.. I love the motocross style bikes as there is no way you can go when you have one of them.. off-road on road.. the world is your oyster.. don't see any scooters though sadly.😢 But the triumphs a beautiful ❤️
I bet a motorcross bike would be fun to try on the byways over here. Might have to look into that for a future video.
The trikes confuse me, You want a bike but also want it to handle like a car? But why :D
Think you had one of the best looking bikes there tbh i see a lot of older gentleman reliving the youth :)
That Triumph Rocket was very nice though too rich for my blood for sure.
I'm with you actually. I admire trike owners for being a bit different, but you can't filter on it, and no protection from the elements either. I will always have a car, and a motorcycle! That said, if I got so old, or frail that I could no longer handle a bike I reckon they would be the best bet to keep your hand in. Those Rocket's are bonkers. I see this one around a lot actually.
What bike did Harriet get, I couldn't tell from the video.
I got an xj6 😊
@@harriet_._05 Thanks Harriet, I thought an XJ6 was a car. Is it a Yamaha 600cc 4 cylinder?
@@ronlysons6750 yep exactly that 🤩
Harriet has beat me to it. Lovely bike 😍
@@TwoWheelsTommy You don't mess about on that little Island of yours when it comes to getting your first big bike. a four cylinder and a 1200cc first bike after passing your test. Wow!
I enjoyed your videos i went to my cbt yesterday and it was a horrible experience the guy just shouted in my face made the whole thing terrible , i had boots too big to fit under the gears and he didnt tell me until afterwards and mocked me for it , why didnt he tell me at the beginning? I performed perfectly around the slalom and emergency stop, i managed to change gears and got around the track avoiding hitting the other ls who all had mopeds, but he just kept yelling and screaming , he made me so nervous i kept stalling but only because he was such a knob , everytime i looked at him he was in his phone . Kept talking about himself and how expensive his bike was and how expensive his stuff was , he didnt say a single word to me except for shouting at me
Jeez, that sounds awful. Rest assured that is not normal, the guy just sounds like a massive wally. Don't get despondent, if you didn't get your certificate try someone else. You got this 💪
@@TwoWheelsTommy im going to go to a different school , im 44 and the guy made me feel totally incompetent i only put up with it because i thought perhaps it was just his style of teaching , but after him teaching me nothing i realised he was actually an angry weird sad case. I could go the easy route, the other riders all did the cbt on automatic 50 cc peds just to get the CBT and start riding theyre geared bikes they had already bought. if i had a day on a bike in my own time i would be able to build the muscle memory. thanks for your advice great videos
@Larry_Diamond Sounds like you made a good choice. Don't let that wally spoil it for you. They are out there, when I was at the test centre for 3 hours doing my MOD 1 (Had to wait for others to do it too) there was an instructor in the centre that was a boombastic idiot. You could tell his students were embarassed for him. Go get it Larry, report back when you've got that certificate 😀
And why wouldn't you go on your 125? I've been to a couple on my 125
Nothing wrong with it at all. Plenty of other vids to make when I had my 125, so I wanted to wait til I had a big bike 👍
Looks like that other Bobber has an illegal number plate?
Possibly, each to their own!
