RIDING ROYAL ENFIELD'S CLASSIC 500.

[@gordonsuddery4635]

I've said how many times, it's not about speed it's about enjoying the ride on a bike that you love just like your 500 Royal Enfield classic. I'd love one or the 350 ! Lovely video my best wishes to you from the Philippines ❤️💪👍😉😀😁🏁🏍️🛺🐑🐑🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Your opening words carry a lifetime of wisdom, yes, appreciated.

[@Volcanicbrown1878]

@andyb.5268 I'm not sure of the lifetime of wisdom! but thanks!

[@roald-o6i]

Well, I really appreciate your videos, especially now, when you tell us one of the purposes. I was diagnosed with cancer in the early spring, and for all the best days of the year for biking, I was tied to the bed on painkillers, due to radiation treatment. I spent hours a day watching bike channels, yours, that bloke on a motorbike's, fuzzy bikers and many more. I am now slowly returning to the bike, but all of your videos kept the spirit up...

[@Volcanicbrown1878]

@user-zo6uo5mg2h Thankyou so much. I hope and pray that you make a swift recovery and get out again on your bike. Comments like yours make me realize that life should not be taken with a pinch of salt, It is not guaranteed to be problem free. Wishing you all the very best. VB

[@dezmondwhitney1208]

Another nice ride out with a bit of fun included. It is a great watch on a Sunday morning. Thanks.

[@wallybuettner]

Great video, I love the sound of a Royal Enfield single! Beautiful bike!

[@RockerMark]

VB, thanks for your comments on people that cannot get out; I’m having long term chemo and it’s rare that I currently have the strength to move my bikes around so I do enjoy the virtual ride!

[@Volcanicbrown1878]

@RockerMark My thoughts and prayers go out to you. Not everyone is blessed with good health.

[@siriusblat9269]

This is one of the great things about you tube - it’s a window to the world. Wishing you all the strength you need right now 👍

[@ianlawrie919]

Great video of your ride out, isn’t it weird how we don’t frequent a place even so close to home, I on the other hand have one road in and out of south Kintyre and but a handful of turn offs along it so have covered them all regularly, however there are still wonderful nooks and crannies to be discovered after 36 years 👏👍👌

[@airgunbubba2505]

That intro is 100% on point and hilarious good sir! Earned yourself a sub in the first 30 seconds!

[@Volcanicbrown1878]

@airgunbubba2505 Much appreciated!

[@Stefan_trekkie]

The classic 500s have grown-up on the 2nd hand market. The people do love them.

[@richardyardley5127]

I've just fitted a Fuel X Lite to my Classic 500 mate. Well worth doing as it richens the fuel/air mixture, as you've indicated and will cool things down a bit. An easy install once you get the tank off.

[@Volcanicbrown1878]

@richardyardley5127 I have one ready to fit but just haven't got around to it as yet.

[@johnimmins7302]

Enjoyable watch, nice bike.😊👍🏍

[@aladinfox4098]

Anothe great video😸

[@williamnethercott4364]

Lovely ride and a nice video. I took my old AJS out for a short test run this morning, in the sun. After the stupid breakdown I had last weekend (my own fault) and the way my back is aching today, we didn't go very far, only about 5 miles. Plus, I'm chasing an intermittent misfire but at least I got to check that the engine was now running normally, even if I haven't completely sorted the misfire.

[@brockett]

Very nice video , as ever. Your Videos take people to places they don't even know exist. The large crane in the middle of the screen at 10:36 was a fairly recent addition to lift and load propellers for offshore wind generators. The road you appear to be on from Mistly to Ramsey twists and turns and is not for the feint hearted or those who wish to rush about.

[@patrickgreenman8248]

The 500 is looking very good !,I love that exhaust note,I saw for the first time in the flesh the Meteor 650 at the Cable bike meet yesterday it looked pretty good imo , I don't think I've seen so many interceptors before in one place, (new 650s,not the 750),. You literally did get your fingers burnt by Black and Decker VB! good tip on the sale with the Dremel I'll check if the deal is on in this neck of the woods.Great video,thanks!

[@CrowsBrother]

Great video !

[@Volcanicbrown1878]

@CrowsBrother Thanks!

[@MarkBruce-m2i]

Nice One - thanks! can we see one of you using that dremel with the mop ?

[@Volcanicbrown1878]

@MarkBruce-m2i Yes, no problem!

[@nicholasjarrold8649]

Nice little ride out exactly where I go I’m in a village called Thorpe-le-soken so I come in from the other direction through Lawford and turn off at bratham bull through the naval school to that water tower then right and go Shotley have a pint in that pub or if you carry on round there’s a posher place not sure if it’s a yacht club but have a beer in there only one though then I ride through under Orwell bridge and go back home up past the ski slope past jimmy’s farm into brantham then right down to harwich have a ride round there then back road through couple villages to Thorpe nice little run out for couple to three hours be nice to meet you one day and have a ride out together my uncle use to do earth moving like you do with 3 D8’s and scraper boxes had his own low loader my father worked for him for a time and I use to go with him on a Saturday morning he had a BSA 650 gold flash I was about 5/6 and I went on the back of him anyway take care ride safe

[@petersheppard6085]

I keep saying it, but I really must try and leave Essex and venture into Suffolk....weather permitting !

[@robwilkguitar4458]

Is it an aging thing? Very funny regarding the drill. Just about right for me anyway, I'd have done the same, I'd have given up when the drill caught fire and gone out on the bike although some would say, it's not like him to give in. Not the case anymore those days are gone. Keep up with the videos always enjoy a good chewing over.

[@kalyansankardawn5188]

I have had this model for 7 years, but I was forced to sell it due to financial constraints 😢😢

[@colincraig6269]

Nice watching your video and travels through your part of the UK. Colin from Vancouver Island

[@Volcanicbrown1878]

@colincraig6269 Thanks for watching!

[@dungspreader]

Grand ride out , I'll be watching it again during the long Canadian winter . Talking about bunkers , I expect the govt is digging some new ones , if they've sold all the old ones . Royal Enfields used to be made underground . I worked underground for a few years and hated every minute of it . I can't fathom wanting to live there . The fresh air and freedom of the road is a tonic like no other. Ride on Mr Brown .

[@Volcanicbrown1878]

@dungspreader The advantage of living in a cold war underground bunker is that you don't get hassled by double glazing salesmen!

[@philbailey1397]

They can't get out because someone keeps parking in their parking spaces 😊

[@dozerblade]

i wondered what your thoughts are on the E 5 and E 10 petrol for the Enfields ?

[@Volcanicbrown1878]

@dozerblade If they are modern, I use E5 but the old cast iron Bullets will run on anything that will run through a straw! so they get E10!

[@Classics-in-the-sun]

Nice little ride out Mr Brown. Did you know there is a bike show at shotley in September?

[@Volcanicbrown1878]

@Classics-in-the-sun No I didn't!

[@Classics-in-the-sun]

@@Volcanicbrown1878 pretty sure its the 8th of September..

[@mred7030]

mcn says lube chain at end of ride as it cooks on hot chain and less mess .

[@Volcanicbrown1878]

@mred7030 Never, ever seen or found a chain that was hot! so I disagree with mcn!

[@splodge57]

I never over oil my chain and always do it the end of a ride giving more time before I next use the bike. Definitely don't get as much fling off.😊😊

[@simongarey8575]

Enjoyed the video. Am off into the lincolnshire wolds from sunny Norfolk shortly.

[@Volcanicbrown1878]

@simongarey8575 Nice!

[@ruahinesrider]

Buy a Dremel they got different speeds & are really good. It's great going for a ride somewhere you haven't been for decades,it's good just going for a ride.

[@Volcanicbrown1878]

@ruahinesrider You didn't listen to what I said in the video!! LOL!

[@ruahinesrider]

@Volcanicbrown1878 I meant the brand 'Dremel' rotary machine I got one in a kit with a gas torch & engraver & had good use from it.. You said you got another better one to do the job,be able to knock a few casings out on next wet day.

Lovely bikes ain t they.

[@Volcanicbrown1878]

@zedcharlie I think they are. Good to look at and enough minerals in the engine to back up what the bike is saying!

[@daviddavies5347]

Typical, sympathy for your disabled viewers but you take up their parking space! 😡 Only joking! I think there are people who’ll tell you off for that but if you don’t leave your bike and go away and can move it if need be it’s fine in my eyes! Like parking on double yellows opposite a post box to post a letter! I was told off for that and the whole operation took two minutes! In fact I was kept longer for the busy body! 🙄🤣

[@daviddavies5347]

Actually you inspired me to give the Enfield a polish. I’m in the middle of changing the sprocket, as mentioned by yourself, but need a 46mm sprocket to finish! I looked at the cases and thought, I should polish these! 🤣

[@daviddavies5347]

‘Socket!’🙄

[@Volcanicbrown1878]

@daviddavies5347 LOL!

[@Volcanicbrown1878]

@daviddavies5347 The flip side to that coin is that if they can't get out, then they won't be needing the parking space!!

[@daviddavies5347]
