I Had to Sell My Motorcycle

[@ecrusch]

"Having a few spare bikes around in case friends come over". I love you Block...

[@BlockheadMoto]

lol thanks man 😅

[@juliancrooks3031]

So sad when you have to sell your bike, it's like losing a member of your family

[@BlockheadMoto]

Ain’t that the truth. So many memories together 🥲

[@jamesgoers5277]

Awesome video back to the basics. Riding and talking to the viewers

[@BlockheadMoto]

Def nice to get back to the basics! Need to do it more often for sure.

[@danielbuchanan5327]

This made me kinda miss my 21 MT09. Traded for my 23 Fat Bob which in its own right an awesome bike. May get another MT once the FB is paid off. I don’t believe in brand allegiance so much as believing in a fun bike no matter who makes it.

[@petecarvo9284]

6:31 What, Blockhead NOT revealing something until later? No way!

[@DrTabarnak]

I mean look at how long it took him to reveal his face 😂

[@BlockheadMoto]

I sold one of my favorite bikes, and here’s why! Follow the incoming channel for updates! www.youtube.com/@jonxblock

[@Paul20661]

*oh no* 🥇

[@oilfieldsatdiver8425]

I wanted to thank you for the Motorcycle tutorials they helped me learn to become comfortable with my bike. 😀👍

[@BlockheadMoto]

Thanks for watching, glad they helped you out!

[@darkguardian3287]

I started watching around when you picked it up, saw the marketplace listing and was so sad I couldn’t pick it up. Hope it goes to someone deserving

[@irishguyjg_2ndchancerecovery]

You don't "HAVE" to do anything. Hope things get better for ya Blockhead

[@ridwaangallow7543]

Great video brother Block.. Not easy selling a bike that you love.. Fancy Chris riding the Grom in that fashion.. Crazy stuff.. That's why we love him.. Keep twisting that wrist brother..

[@theodorerowe4483]

I know that feeling, I have to sell mine as well 😢 granted it is not a bike that I don't ride, circumstances are what they are at time.

[@KeViNMCMXXCIX]

I mean even though you don't ride it that much, it's also a choice you make. But guess having multiple bikes/cars that's what makes you choose different. Same with car vs bike. As for me if I am running late or something I usually pick the car over the bike. Maybe it's smart, cause you'll be more safe in the car and take less risk then vs a motorcycle. And I like to chill while riding, not rushing etc. I do speed on occasion but still. And with a naked its also the more you ride them you'll get used to the wind and all as well. But it's not for everyone either. Hope it's get an owner who's really happy with it, which it seems like, lol.

[@JMF_Productions]

I just sold my beloved iron 883 yesterday.. That was the bike that made me discover your channel back in the day. It's so bittersweet letting a motorcycle go... But now i have lots of $$ for street glide parts, ha

[@BlockheadMoto]

Selling one to fund another, same! 😅

[@chiguy_]

Good to see it going to a good home.. keep up the great vids can't wait to see what this funds. cheers.

[@HighhPlainsDrifter]

This guy should have this motorcycle since he clearly finds it very enjoyable to ride! Blockhead should've just rode it more often

[@Jimmibucco]

It's cool I completely understand why you would sell the Mt-09sp. I personally would never sell mine, but I don't work in the industry.

[@ward0517]

I have a 23 xsr900 and I wouldn’t sell.

[@fremennikman248]

Insane how fast these moto vloggers go from Florida to Mexico and back in a flash XD

[@Ed-ty1kr]

As a life long Florida moto rider that had not made a vlog in his life, Mexico is a good place go and never come back.

[@RevechoRides]

Right in the feels. Felt the same when i traded my Iron 883 for my Yamaha XSR 900. "One day will find you, and I will buy you again" *Liam Neeson* voice

[@Jocheche]

That's the moto that got me to view this channel when I was reviewing to buy one, and got me one 2023 mt 09

[@bradleyyounger8499]

My favorite naked bike is the tuono v4. That thing is disgusting lol. Absolute beast

[@bullhead360]

Absolutely agree!!

[@pics-by-pete]

sad to see the bike go, and definitely agree about the mt10 Jason's mt10 scared the crap out of me.

[@BlockheadMoto]

That bike was wicked! Sounded so damn good

[@joeplem5329]

Don't blame you for selling it if you're not riding it much. These bikes are no joke either, I have a hard enough time using half the power on my 2020 z900 "legally " can't even fathom what these 200hp nakeds would feel like 🤷

[@Starship007]

Most of the middle weight bikes with all their horsepower straight from the factory is way above most riders skill levels. Yes, there will be expensive HALO BIKES showing off the newest tech that will filter down to the masses. Save you money and stick with middle weights. Plenty of everything. These 200 plus horsepower bikes from Ducati would be unrideable without rider aides. Fighting wheelies and loss of traction. Plus who enjoys anything at quarter throttle as most full throttle stuff hits triple double digits so fast.

[@deanhodges2360]

Having a 70k-80k built Harley it’s hard to justify the MT😢

[@StopDeportingVeterans]

Thanks for adjusting the Techmount Universal Phone Gripper 4 mount….😳😬

[@jasonmcewen436]

Looking for the new channel, but there's no link in the description, and the channel isn't visible - at least here in BC.

[@BlockheadMoto]

Strange! Should be in description, link is www.youtube.com/@jonxblock

[@Starship007]

I have owned many bikes with at least 4 always in the stable. As with anything, maintenance is the costly part of owning anything.

[@BlockheadMoto]

For sure!

[@ConvoyBebop]

I got so confused when you got on i4 from the 104, could have sworn you got on eastbound, then 1 cut later you're coming up to the 101 westbound lol

[@petecarvo9284]

1:45 I bought one after seeing it on HerTwoWheels' video.

[@Starship007]

Triples sound awesome. Lightweight bike with a lot of power. Triples unique

[@BlockheadMoto]

Such a great sound!

[@JS-sp2pc]

You can’t forget about that weirdo Duckhead with the FZ-09, who did the burnout on your R6

[@BlockheadMoto]

HA! Yours was the first FZ-09 I rode, def what started the interest! Hope you've been well, man 🤘

[@BDL.1010]

I bought that fanttic air pump and it’s 100% amazing. I absolutely love it

[@BlockheadMoto]

Seriously awesome, so convenient. Just used it to inflate some pool floaties, haha

[@detfan1984]

Why are you Bering right through the toll plazas?

[@bullhead360]

So the cameras can’t capture the license plate number so he doesn’t get billed lol

[@Blackbelt-BnB]

Wow I’m not 💯 but I think that’s the bike that came in damaged in the crate nothing major like Mirror, blinker and front fairing my friend didn’t want it. had nothing to do about financing? They said they would fix it already had parts on order and he could take it home and they would get it repaired as soon as the parts came in but he still needed to pay full price +++ he said no then waited and got m10 instead that was during the same timeframe you’re talking about congratulations on selling it in good luck with the future endeavors we will be watching

[@Starship007]

How come big Harley’s no Quick shifters

[@steveo7767]

Sell the Yamaha to fund a Kruesi Originals rear swing arm…. Oh wait too soon!?!?

I like the fact that "Mexico" is yellow 😂😂

Good eye! Had to do the Breaking Bad style Mexico edit 😂

[@ArchieMann2595]

im pretty sure thats the phone mount i bought back in bike week couple years ago and forgot to take off LOL may the new owner get much joy from it! Sad to see that bike go had some epic times on it!

That's totally the phone mount! Never came off the bike till right before selling it to him, haha. It's on my garage counter if you want it back 😁

Ok it could be my feeble addled brain but I’ve been watching for I think is 8 years when I bought my Sportster. Isn’t your name Josh or is that your alter ego and Jon is your real name. It’s not nice to confuse an old man. Yours is one of the only motorcycle content I watch since I can’t ride anymore. I’ll checkout your new channel.

[@bigfootgarage2201]

I would of loved to see goldzilla vs the MT09 before you said goodbye to it

[@BlockheadMoto]

Thought about it, but would have been a very short video, lol. The MT09 SP was fast, but Goldzilla pushing 160hp & tq. The torque gets it off the line, and the horsepower just keeps growing the gap. Even with the weight difference, MT09 would be way behind, wouldn't have been much of a competition 😅

[@bigfootgarage2201]

@@BlockheadMoto oh nice that makes sense I’d still like to see a like 60-130 race on goldzilla and the gold CRB600 if you still have it I know you don’t leave bikes sitting around and just like a comparison video of how different it is do daily those two different bikes
