Classic Bike Collector - Arthur's dream collection - part 2/2

[@gazzertrn]

Arthur is a really nice guy, good of him to invite you to his home . Fantastic collection .

[@TheClassicMotorcycleChannel]

Sure is, very sharing.

[@martinowl]

Great that Arthur doesn’t hide his bikes as museum pieces & also allows other very lucky people to enjoy them too. Top man.

[@jean-paulpech6094]

Thanks Arthur for sharing these beauties your a legend

[@aumkar2]

What a Gentleman Arthur is! Just glorious stuff!

[@cecilwilson5442]

That's a great fella and what a collection of motorcycle's ☘️🍀🍀🍀 from northern Ireland,, thanks for posting this ☘️

[@roberthocking9138]

What a wonderful collection and a true gentleman Arthur is

[@simonrobson5844]

WOW I’d love any and all of Arthur’s collection. 👍🏿

[@gerry343]

Arthur is so right- these machines ought to be ridden not just displayed as museum pieces.

[@fasthracing]

And he himself displays them as museum pieces.

[@gerry343]

@@fasthracing Did you not watch the video? Arthur and John were out on the road actually riding the bikes.

[@brattonbiker6482]

Great collection, and you can see Arthur is extremely passionate about these bikes. I like that he gets them out on the road too. Best video I've watched in a while.

[@TheClassicMotorcycleChannel]

Thank you for your nice comments :)

[@toasty1182]

Just fabulous bikes. Thanks for sharing 👍.

[@TheClassicMotorcycleChannel]

Yeah, there's a surprise around every corner at Arthur's, Alex

[@gtan431]

Thanks Arthur, you're a true gent. Bless you.

[@herve9001]

Amazing motorcycle collection ! Thanks for sharing😊

[@bradkorando]

Thank you for this second installment from Arthur's collection. What a delight to listen to Arthur describe the Vincent and even more of a treat to see Arthur and John riding the bikes.

[@TheClassicMotorcycleChannel]

Thanks for your nice comments Brad, we had a great day with Arthur that day! Alex

[@davidphillips7255]

The Black Bomber was the first big bike I ever rode in 1968. My motorcycle experience at the time was about 200 miles on a Cub 90. I did stall it a couple of times until I got the hang of the clutch. It was easy to ride. These days I've gone full circle and I've got a Honda 500F. It's awesome, better in every way being modern, but just as much fun.

[@mickhardstaff6605]

Excellent, fantastic, thank you so much Arthur I really enjoyed that .

[@eddiebradford1571]

Fantastic to see these beautiful bikes thank you Arthur! 😊 and another great enjoyable video guys, cheers😊👍

[@TheClassicMotorcycleChannel]

Glad you enjoyed it Eddie :)

[@JohnCunningham-sy5ug]

Living examples of beautiful bikes.

[@IanLawrie-l9q]

Great to see Arthur again 👍👏👌

[@malcky630]

Thankyou Arthur.

[@davidjackson7715]

Wonderful video , thank you. The Indian Velo is truly beautiful

[@LemonDrizzleGang]

Superb really enjoyed that - we were due to film a Rapide and an Inter today but weather stopped play

[@TheClassicMotorcycleChannel]

Ooo, keen to see what you guys think of those.

[@philhawley1219]

I'm looking forward to that video.

[@stevem7868-y4l]

What a great vid, arther, loves and rides these machines, and these machines, all highley polished and loved for , i museums should be ridden, as no one buys a race horse to look at ..........

[@storeclassicdiplomat9403]

Fantastic collection never seen before❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@Marius_vanderLubbe]

What a fantastic collection.

[@jvommen]

Perhaps also show car collection? Congratulations sir!

[@millinutz]

The number of Oldtimers that Arthur has is unbelievable and fantastic to see, and feel his enthusiasm for these exquisite maschines. Time and again, "The Classic Motorcycle Channel" finds so many different bikes for us to dribble over, however we never get to see a DOUGLAS. even other similar channels don't feature any Douglas's..., where have they all gone? So my question is now, yeah you've guessed it, when will we get to see one on THIS channel? Maybe I could add a big Please, hoping that might encourage you to find one! Oh, and as we're on the subject of "missing" oldtimers, does anybody remember Francis Barnett? (oh my, I hope i'm not showing my age too much here)!

[@TheClassicMotorcycleChannel]

Hey, thanks for your nice comments and request re Douglas noted. There were a few at the Kop Hill Climb, did you see those videos? Also there was loads at the event we were shooting at today, watch this space, Alex

[@storeclassicdiplomat9403]

Great collection ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@peoplewithpixels]

I've seen quite a few collection videos, but this... this is special (part1/2 included)

[@paulallen3557]

A really enjoyable video and an interesting conversation between two nice fellars.

[@kdsowen2882]

What great machines , a few retro's are trying to capture the beauty of these machines-from-the-past (W650 etc) but they are hard-acts to follow.. Dave nz

[@brucemartin974]

The bikes are great and so are his house and grounds. Looks like a pre-war Jaguar in the background.

[@GutPyle]

Even though my grandfather and all my family history before him on my father's side is from England, seeing this collection is probably the biggest reason to make the trip to visit my ancestors.😂

[@pandrop490]

Brilliant ! another fab video. Loooove the Hesketh, I remember seeing it for the first time in the early 80s but it is sadly another example ( thinking of Norton) of asset stripping and financial jiggery pokery whilst simultaniously breaking the hearts of those hoplessly optimistic bikers that the British bike industry was making a comeback.

[@joereedmusic9853]

Wonderful

[@johngreenwood1972]

Love Arthur.

[@jamesonpace726]

Delightful collection & Gentleman....

[@geneahart5607]

Great video!

[@alpiekaar]

very very interesting,.....

[@colinmartin2921]

The Indian Velo illustrates how old-fashioned Velos were by 1969. The Indian is bang up to date for the time, but the standard Venom looks like a vintage bike.

[@spookydog6959]

lovely 😁

[@cavscout62]

You can definitely see where Yamaha got their SR500 Ideas looking at the Indian Velo.

[@mickbrenton]

Hot damn!!!

[@kdsowen2882]

My Dad had a Rapide , I have the 82 Yamaha copy ! (TR1) Dave nz

[@aceofspades5786]

@0.10 get that Silk out next please

[@philnewcomers9170]

its a development of mac vello it would be interesting to compair the 700cc version made by mr i can see his face cant remember his name of course this all stems from Phil Irving read his books Rich Mixture / Black Smoakstill cant remember ttfn&ty

[@billweiss9514]

free the hesketh!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@alanwann9318]

"And take the wife out for dinner"

[@DUR599]

Oh I do and breakfasts, exotic holidays, perfume, jewellery ...every bike I buy costs a bit more than the purchase price in consequence. Happy days.

[@DennisMerwood-xk8wp]

@@DUR599 My wife was into those hay burners. We had a rule in our house: One more motorbike means one new horse. And vice versa. My friend use to joke. But at least yours do not idle all winter! Great collection here! Sitting in my rest home. I went from 21 to zero!

[@martinmckeeman5139]

You don't....DRIVE....a motorcycle.I thought you'd know better but obviously not
