Henry Cole knows how to surround himself with talented people. Sam, Guy and Alan! Wow what a lineup!

[@kevinobrien1259]

Yes Henry does know who he wants with him but he is the film maker, it's his name on the tin and his skill is making it all work, yes he likes to act the joker most of the time but he is a serious rider, maybe not a good spannerman but then nor was Mike Hailwood ( he admitted it) without the Motorbike show we would have no biker t.v, .......Guy, Sam and Alan wouldn't be there if they didn't want to be, they've known him a long time and they all have a mutual respect.

[@robertmatthews8302]

@@kevinobrien1259 I think Henry should dial back a bit on his facetious remarks about his buddies though.

[@mikewalker1885]

Can't stand Coles "manchild act" and his overuse of the words quintessential, homage, mmm mmm, etc he's a hard watch and a terrible presenter but he has the motorbike telly stuff, all his own, how ?HOW?

[@biggusdickus5986]

​ How means that you're in the minority that aren't enraptured by Henry l would say, Henry knows what he's doing and he does it well, you have to respect the fact he is clever enough to surround himself with blokes like Guy, Alan & Sam.

[@benkelly2190]

@@mikewalker1885 don’t watch it then!

[@zozoa1]

So nice to listen to you without being interrupted by Henry. Excellent

[@davecrewe9074]

Skid so easy to listen to.. im signing up. Very articulate you should do more presenting ..on your own

[@simonjeffery4181]

What a lovely bloke Guy is

[@misterjones7929]

Thanks for showing us you bikes Skid! - I love your articulate enthusiasm!!

[@MichaelBatchelor-q8e]

Thank you Skid, you're great and although I like Henry you are the one that keeps me entertained. Thank you for letting us into your collection. Keep up the great work you do. 👍

[@DillyDillydave5399]

thanks skid for sharing its like a breath of fresh air to see you doing your own stuff full respect

[@ianstruthers9530]

Your bike looks amazing in the candy orange, you are an absolute legend

[@stevec-b6214]

Skid is a proper old school, lifelong biker, he must be kind to animals or something to deserve keeping all his hair

[@gtan431]

Lol...Nice one mate...wtf is the relevance I haven't a clue...but very funny mate 😂

[@robertadams4415]

Thanks for the tour Skid

[@SISU889]

What a cracking bloke ! Luuuurve the Harley !

[@bostonbikebits6539]

great vid. Guy does some great stuff. Very relateable geezer too, would like to see more of this from him.

[@deanflood4017]

Love this man to have his own TV show! Great infront of the camera

[@steveskeggy61]

If Guy wanted to front his own show, I think Henry would have given him a show before now.

[@derf9465]

Im the same regarding little machines, done with big miles and heavy bikes. They made me happy to ride. But getting on small machines makes me happy, a laugh, a giggle. My current step through is a Aprillia RS250.

[@wolffury5019]

I ride my Yamaha RX-135, 5-SPEED, Two Stroke Daily.😁😁😁 (2000 year Model)

[@allansolomon2137]

Wow skid. Wrongly I assumed you only did odd jobs for Henry. How wrong was I. Loving your passion for your work. Nice tidy workshop says it all.

[@hamishanderson6738]

So chuffed for Skid when he got his Harley on Find it fix it flog it.

[@jktho]

Thats a perfect sportster build. Beautiful.

[@alanmorgan9353]

Brilliant Skid, passionate biker a very clever chap. Nice to see your own channel. Keep up the good work.

[@Jones-xx2gc]

That CB125 Twin, what a tidy little bike. What a great video.

[@Richard-pe4cx]

i have had a few bikes at one point not so long ago a honda 125 t 1979 vintage i would see my late mum in yeovil from southampton what an adventure like the early days again

[@davidmuir6849]

Thanks for sharing Skid ,great bikes . Regards Dave from Scotland

[@zazzoomedia]

After learning on an SS50, the CB125T, in silver, was my first motorcycle. Thrashed it for a year - never had a single problem. Was a great little bike

[@stevenlangdon-griffiths293]

What a nice chap and what a nice video too.

[@brianherring6393]

Nice to see you on your own territory. Enjoy watching you on junk and disorderly. Great video guy 👍

[@PaulMullen-v7t]

Nice to see the other side of your TV work, nice non boring and informative.

[@mikewoodward5765]

I think that candy orange is a stunning colour👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

[@fivedotsdave9723]

Guy that was a great look at what you like and what you own, some lovely bikes.

[@kenmcfarland4287]

I enjoyed that Skid, shows you in a different light from when you are on Henry's show. I too love the little Hondas had a benly just like yours but it wobbled all over the place, there was nothing wrong with it but when I sold it the new owner took the fairing off and that cured it apparently. The cb125t was a real screamer 85 mph ! Keep up the good work.

[@englishsteve1465]

Those little Honda's like the CB and CG 125's are still being copied by the Chinese manufacturers etc, it's a bulletproof little thing for sure. I had the RS 250 and I'd love another one today, that was quick, light and it handled like a house fly. Yeah, that one makes the list of "the ones I wish I'd kept" that I think all bikers have.

[@tonypage1056]

Nice to see behind the scenes & you in your natural environment!

[@paulcowell7588]

The Honda's are fantastic...brecon as you get older you start to like the small bore bikes even more..I know I do...they light easy to ride and cost nothing yo run..once you accept you ain't going fast you settle down and enjoy the ride...fabulous.

[@ricardotomaso7069]

Great video Skid. Love your bikes and your work - top man !

[@johncunliffe9315]

Proper old school biker is Skid cheers mate 🤘

[@TheGhosty66]

Great video Skid, I love your passion and love of bikes.

[@crankybear1236]

Awesome job on the orange CB1100!!!!!

[@UKPete]

The sound of that CB1100 (orange one at the end of the video) is bang on perfect!

[@christianmarc46]

Love Skid ,we need more of this

[@ec9156]

You could roll in the dough if you sold your Five4 as a kit for all the thousands of used bikes out there! Very Nice, I am regretting selling my 2014 Honda CB 1100 a couple months ago. Enjoy! Eric C. in NC-USA. 🏍

[@iancharlton678]

Top banana 🥳 Man after my own heart…… probably the same vintage. Likewise, a modded 1584cc FatBob for shitz’n giggles, a Varadero for yomping about on and a couple of projects in the back. Wifey had a CB125 twin back in the nineties as first bike (and love) and I had a CD185 Benly as a hack, rekindling a lost love CD175 in the eighties ❤️ Gave the Benly to my Dad……. loved it….. something about that family of soft twins that bewitched…… no frenzy, no revs….. but solid progress and effortless. Great video, great Guy 😎🇬🇧

[@chris_rides_kawasaki]

My grandad had the same Rickman fairing on his YDS7. It was his only transport, him and my nan went everywhere on it.

[@Dancing_Alone_wRentals]

tHanks for the tour. I have just one motorcycle that sits. It is fun to see people who have a passion for riding. tHanks for the video

[@billmccooeye]

Really pretty bikes. That old Sporty will be nice. Thank you

[@adediver]

Wonderful, thanks for a look at your bikes.

[@garypollentine194]

Wow wow wow I’m so in ore of your bikes guy I’ve had bikes all my life but unfortunately not any more due to lack of money I miss my bike terribly I yearn for a bike to ride I think to myself if only I had another bike , keep up the good work guy your a legend in your own right

[@wolffury5019]

I am in an Eternal Love with my presitinely maintained Yamaha RX-135, 5-SPEED for the past 21 years! I ride it daily. Nothing comes closer to this 2-Stroke Jem!

[@carlkrebs6857]

Wish I still had my 100cc Hodaka that I bought new in 1969. I was 16 and rode it every day.

[@retromechanicalengineer]

CB125T was my first bike! Loved it. I had to make do with a Fizzy until I was old enough to ride it because I bought it when I was 16.

Daily I ride my Yamaha RX-135, 5-SPEED, Two Stroke ♥ ( 2000 year Model)

[@flipflop8604]

My mates 250 superdream was no faster than my cb125t , that really pissed him off !!

[@retromechanicalengineer]

@@flipflop8604yes, the 125 really had the power to weight advantage over the 250. All of this nostalgia is making me want to find another one!

[@wolffury5019]

@@retromechanicalengineer Go for it!

[@oscartravis5740]

Lovely guy and what a superb collection. I definitely approve of the orange paint job, I'd have that as my personal machine any day!

[@MadOldBiker]

Great collection Guy, always good seeing you at Oakley

[@garydunn3037]

Guy, you are speaking my kinda of language Mate. You keep mentioning a Z1 and I assume it was a 900 Kawasaki. This was my all time favourite bike. I know Henry Cole was more in to the smaller stuff, but this and the Suzuki GT750 "Kettle" back in the early 70's were my All Time Favourite Bikes.

[@denisg4288]

I think the CB1100RS is one of the most beautiful bikes ever made. I always think if you ask a kid to draw a bike, that is what it would look like. Understated but stunning.

[@michaelnee1470]

Love the top Dennis.

[@kingofthehill412]

Watched you on Henry Cole, but as a CB1100RS owner didn't realise you were responsible for the 54! May be in contact to see what can be done on the RS

[@mickhardstaff6605]

Well done Skid I really enjoyed that, I've seen you on Henry Coles programs 👍😎

[@stevebme2163]

My wife and I have had 5 benlys over the years. We still have two. Hers being a 6v and 50000 miles +. And mine a 12v and 45000 miles +. Both are now over 40 years old and are historic vehicles. Great bikes. Both do over 70 miles to the full up. Did have a GL1000 K1, did 65000 miles and sold it on. Should have kept it as they are quite rare now.

[@hondaryder3779]

I'm with you on the key thing, my previous bike wouldn't start, turns out my entry tag from work interfered with the anti theft device. SO DON'T PUT THOSE ON YOUR KEY RING.😁👏🇳🇱 NL, Transalp with many mods (none technologisch)

[@anthonydonnelly8419]

Great set up! I used to courier in the midlands on CD200 as well.

Hello Guy. The bikes are a credit to you. Some bikes sound like race cars. Do you have a tractor. It's just that I saw a trailer parked up.

[@davidsimpson105dB]

Great work,Skid. Great bikes. Glad you werent forced to have a cup of tea in your hand as per the schtick on Coles outpourings. Hes a bit of a knob !!

Guy has built most of the bikes that Henry Cole has been associated with but never seems to get the credit. He's a brilliant bike builder.

[@darrenrobbins8356]

Skid, have you done the cam chain tensioner modification yet on your 01 Harley? I have an 01 twin cam 88 and I’m thinking of going the gear driven cam route. I agree with you, the iron head engine is a cracker. I fancy a kicker early 900 or later 1000.

[@mikeymike3240]

Niiiiiiiiiiice one Skid, love every one of your bikes.
