One of the greatest collection of bikes on KZbin! 😊

[@paulmartin4971]

Hi Phil thanks very much for that mate much appreciated. I must be doing something right lol 😂. Allthough finding a suitable project is the hardest part of what I do. I'm thinking of cleaning up the strika next and doing another feature on the fizzy as the location of the last video was not ideal it could have been better lol 😂 cheers 🥂.

@paulmartin4971 I met Dealer Mike today at a local car show in Great Yarmouth. He was the winning bidder on a bike whilst I was standing next to him. I won't say what it is or what he paid but he's a jammy beggar! 😅

@@gingerphil Hi Phil that's good I was meant to go round his for coffee and cake 🎂 but he didn't contact me lol 😂. Hopefully it was a chopper?? Lol 😂 will make good content cheers 🥂.

Lovely fizzy Paul... you should be proud of yourself. The little boxer, how about a colour change, chopper mk1 colours, orange, flamboyant green perhaps?.. all bikes look lovely. Red for the gear handle.. 😮

[@paulmartin4971]

Hi Mike thanks for that can't make me mind up with the Boxer yet but it will be a long term project anyway.... Your vote for red has been noted lol 😂. Cheers 🍻

[@JimTimber]

@@paulmartin4971 Have you been lucky enough to check out the new Mk4? I've seen reaction videos on youtube but wondered if you had managed to see one in the flesh?

[@paulmartin4971]

@@lenscapp Hi mate yes I really like the mk4 mainly because it's pushed up the prices of the mk2's lol 😂 and most mk4 parts fit the mk2 so no more paying sky high prices for parts. No I haven't seen one up and personal but yes I do like it but would take the sissy bar out and replace with a mk2 one simply because it doesn't look right. Cheers 🍻

[@lenscapp]

@@paulmartin4971 Why did they do the mk3? Its an odd looking thing. Keep up the amazing work with the videos, im filming mine being restored so keep an eye out 😉

[@paulmartin4971]

@@lenscapp Hi mate yes I will do. my view on the mk3 is it's Rubbish and not a proper chopper I've owned a ultra violet one and hated it, was glad to see the back of it lol 😂 hated the seat, gear changer and cheap brakes, it's in a few of my videos but glad it's gone lol 😂 let me know when your video is uploaded cheers 🥂

[@michaelheaton2604]

Both look mint pal love the fizzy yellow.

[@paulmartin4971]

@@michaelheaton2604 Hi Michael yes I do like the mk4 but would definitely put the mk2 sissy bar on it, have allready ordered a pair of mk4 pedals and they are exactly the same as mk2. Also the mk4 has driven up the prices of mk2 so in my opinion is a good thing and yes I would like to own one but the sell on value you would probably have to wait and see but it looks like there not being mass produced so will have to wait and see. Cheers 🍻.

So very cool love the bike show . How about copper chopper ? Hows shoulder pain

[@paulmartin4971]

Hi jess nice to hear from you, I had my 2nd steroid injection today and I'm in a lot of pain but you've just got to get on with it haven't you lol 😂. Copper chopper sounds good will make a note of it, do you think I should leave the shifter on the fizzy yellow or change it back to red? New video out Friday and thanks for viewing cheers 🥂.

[@deemdoubleu]

I had a yellow one mid 70's but can't quite remember what colour the decal was.

[@paulmartin4971]

Hi mate thanks for the comment, was you talking about the Chopper or the strika? If the chopper would of had same decals as mine. They also brought out a yellow boxer as well. Latest video out about 6 cheers 🥂.

[@deemdoubleu]

@@paulmartin4971 Yes it was a Chopper for sure.

Lack of room... I know _exactly_ what you mean.

Yes mate lol 😂 I had to sell 3 choppers a strika a boxer and a RSW due to lack of room, but am building a workshop when It warms up, thanks for viewing cheers 🥂

[@garyestcourt2377]

How much do ya sell them for 🤔 btw mine new in the early 70s was £40 ☺️

[@paulmartin4971]

Hi mate thanks for viewing, it all depends on condition I would of thought my fizzy is worth between £1k and £1.5k the red one about the same prices have gone up just lately but I'm more of a collector but would sell if the right money was offered. Have just started a new chopper project 2nd video is out tomorrow cheers 🥂

@@garyestcourt2377 Hi Gary the mark 1's are worth more than the mk2's and yes you should of kept hold of yours lol 😂, you just don't see them even at bootsales and if you pick one up cheap then that's a bonus even decent Grifters are hard to come by. My little Raleigh Strika came from Halfords and is a one owner. Cheers 🍻

[@garyestcourt2377]

@@paulmartin4971 Yeah 💯 right I deffo should have kept it , it was sold to a relation when I got a new racer bike 🚲 , I remember there was 5 gear models as well I bet those are pretty rare ✌️

[@paulmartin4971]

@@garyestcourt2377 yes there was one called the sprint that basically was a chopper with racer handle bars with 5 gears, there was also the pinky that is a pink chopper with 5gears that didn't sell well so is quite rare also the girlie that is a white chopper made for girls but the most sought after is the SE (special edition) from 1977 was brought out as a limited edition because of the queen's silver jubilee is worth about 3k for a good one. I'm just going to keep buying choppers now and not Grifters as I find them more interesting cheers 🥂
