Storm Eunice, an English Breakfast and a Honda

[@manfrombkk]

Is there anyone anywhere, who gets more excited than Freddie ? I / we, think not.

[@pmccartney80]

The enthusiasm and energy you inject into the videos is amazing. Keep up the great work!!

[@rmil4531]

Freddie….. your enthusiasm for life is so wonderful. Bike’s cool.

[@SuperDannyboy1974]

Have missed you guys being in the UK you bring such energy and enthusiasm to everything you do! The Honda looks seriously cool 😎 can’t wait for the next vid need a coffee now myself! Cheers Dan

[@FreddieDobbs]

Thanks very much Dan!🙂 I love the Rebel’s looks too- I’m a very big fan!😍🏍

[@michaelclarke3684]

Well come back home and storm Eunice to greet you, beautiful looking bike, look forward to your review

[@FreddieDobbs]

Thank you, Michael! What a welcome, hey!😆🌪

[@ChristopherD-M]

Great to see you guys back! And still experiencing the full range of emotions within a couple of minutes, from excited to heartbroken! 🙂

[@didiermarchant3024]

Haven’t been here for a while Freddie. And I now realise how much I missed your enthousiasme and energy. Good to be back mate 😉

[@BEEBEE58679]

Monika's verbal gestures speaks volumes. You are a fortunate gent. Have a great day. Enjoy your reviews & travels. Thanks.

[@deywo]

I was lookin forward the cmx review for a long time. Cant wait the next episode :) cheers!

[@jasonadams5187]

Awesome video and awesome content can’t wait for the next video Thank’s Freddie and Monika

[@aminekessar]

I know it's a shame to leave the clear blue sky of Tenerife, but I can feel the joy and the happiness in your eyes since you're back in the UK, home sweet home isn't it ? 🙂 Cheers from Algiers!

[@FreddieDobbs]

Good old Britain- it’s cold and wet and grey but I still love it!🌧🌪🇬🇧❤️

[@kim007250]

Any Honda will be well screwed together ,super reliable and give years of pleasure. It’s in the company’s D N A. Enjoy.

[@FreddieDobbs]

Strongly agree!🙂💪🏼🇯🇵

[@stevesteve1965]

Welcome back Freddie & Monica.

[@ExeterCenturion]

So happy to see you guys back in the UK! Want to see more of your trips around the South-West hopefully!

[@mikedavies5084]

Great video ,I’ve been a subscriber since you went to Tenerife,I love your enthusiasm in everything you do ,looking forward to more videos 👍👍

[@FreddieDobbs]

Delighted you’ve stuck around, Mike! Thank you🙂🙌🏻

[@mikedavies5084]

Do you have plans to go back to Tenerife??

[@MoroMagrew]

Ah the Rebel 1100, makes sense, look forward to the review! Miss the food in the UK, not been back since 2019! I’m from not too far away, Colchester!

[@davideccles1617]

I've only come across your videos over the last couple of days, they are very entertaining and most importantly British, I need to visit Ipswich. Your delivery is superb.

[@davidgalt8107]

That old school desk brought back a few memories, not all good.

[@robbikebob]

Always look forward to your video's. Such optimistic enthusiasm really cheers me up. Living in the UK I'm always in desperate need of cheering up! Yeah, I thought it would be a kawasaki too. Always forget about the rebel. I like the idea of the rebel but I really can't make my mind up about the looks. It looks good until it's got a rider on it and then it looks a bit odd. The riding position looks odd too, very cramped looking for a cruiser...

[@FreddieDobbs]

Delighted to hear it it, thanks Rob!🙂 Great to get your Rebel thoughts🙌🏻🙌🏻 I’m falling more in love with it with every passing day😍🏍

[@85PLD]

Good to have you back in the UK. Stunning bike, looking forward to the review :)

[@johnrussell616]

Great fun . Funny how we get used to seeing you in the Tenerife sunshine. Look forward to your first road trip on the new bike.

[@jjnewman65]

Nice to have you guys back in England. A Rebel in a Storm. It looks good.

[@markb3180]

Welcome back to Blighty Freddie, hope you enjoy the beautiful weather we have to offer! Looking forward to your bike review.

[@marcverdi665]

Lovely to see you back in the UK. Tenerife is amazing, but the character and charm of Ipswich, etc., is so lovely and warm. And Cult looks like a brilliant spot! Love it.

[@davidoakes7192]

Good to see you back in the UK. Definitely looking forward to seeing the rebel review, had an eye on it so interested on your opinion. Safe travels bro

[@alanbarnes2920]

Welcome home Freddie and Monika..nice review of the dockside and cafe! Weather forecast looking better for your time with the Rebel..looking forward to your vids!

[@nickcutler7759]

Just watched this vid and last one in Tenerife. It’s feeling very much like Ipswich here in Sydney, Australia after copping a months worth of rain in a couple of hours! Looking forward to a trip back in May to UK. Keep up the great vids 👍

[@crumblymal8479]

Fantastic guys your vlogs always lift those winter blues ,the bike looks really nice too and Ipswich who new looks a very cosmopolitan area round the marina there , lookin forward to seeing more as always all the best to you both : D

[@triumph_abroad6125]

When you first mentioned it in the botanical gardens, I was hoping it would be the Kawasaki W800, but then you hinted cruiser/bobber, and, the Rebel makes total sense. Sharp looking bike; have heard good things about the smaller displacement version, so curious to hear about the 1100.

[@FreddieDobbs]

The W800 was top three on my list (along with the Z900 and Rebel)🙂🏍👌🏻 I’ve been so curious to see the Japanese take on a bobber!🇯🇵

[@jazm6]

Sweet bike there Freddie! Welcome back to the UK, hopefully I do see you around in Thamesmead/Bexleyheath area some time in the future. :)

[@pommiegranite464]

Cool looking bike, great reviews. I've had the 500cc version for a year and it's really good fun.

[@drbhaskardas25]

Superb bike !!! I just love the enjoyment your face reflects in anything and everything both of you do. That is basically what is needed. That coffee was delicious I guess !! 🙂👍✌️

[@garydaver6635]

Hola, sorry Hello Freddie and Monika Well the difference between Southerners and Northerners. Everyone in the south as you said are locking themselves in the house, in the North the advice is perhaps wear an extra layer when you pop into the back garden to hang out your washing as it's a very good drying day..... Sir Gary de la Toon

[@FreddieDobbs]

I love this! And ai won’t argue with this- we are far far too pampered in the south!😆

[@DB1956]

So, massive comfy looking saddle - and Monica gets to sit on a little cushion on the rear mudguard...

[@maxreno9774]

Quality content and super underrated. Thanks for the new vid

[@FreddieDobbs]

Really appreciate it, thank you Max!🙌🏻

[@tobyambrose1114]

Hey Fred,loving the channel buddy. My wife and I have Barber Shop named The Mens Room in a lovely market town called Hadleigh,it has lots of indi shops boutiques and cafe’s. Hadleigh is about a 20 mins ride/drive from Ipswich and if you ever fancy visiting,your cut would be on us. All best mate and keep up the good work. Toby & Sarah

[@SharadTalekar]

Another beautiful video. Love your style

[@BeanoMark]

Wee doggie sitting with the other group at 9.40 looks like a Bedlington Terrier! People say how rare they seem to be, but when you own a couple you see them everywhere, including Freddie's video!

[@rodhunt5199]

When you picked that massive knife up to open the parcel you didn’t look dangerous at all…

[@stephenjamieson1003]

Been watching you since you set off in the Fiat for Tenerife, we are due out there on 26th Feb. Great content looking forward to your UK activities and reviews. 😀

[@richardbradley1306]

Good morning Freddie and nice to see you back in the UK! Wow - that bike is seriously cool, never heard of them before today - stealth fighter!! Enjoy

[@FreddieDobbs]

Thanks Richard!🙂🇬🇧 I think this 1100 only came out in 2021- it’s a weapon!💪🏼🏍🇯🇵🤘🏻⚡️

[@MrJckDoo]

@Freddie Dobbs You bring back memories to me down at the Marina, I used to park my coach up at the train station and walked over there a few times to look at the boats. (The place didn't look much like it does in the video, it was during the 70 to 80's) That was anytime I used Harwich to the Hook of Holland, We used to arrive back from Hollland around 1pm, and I used to let the crowd off to go into the town. leave at 6pm for Holyhead for the 3am sailing.

[@plummz]

Watching you stride along I was getting Fast Show vibes: "ent Ipswich brilliant!" keep up the good work you two!

[@oblahdes]

So nice to see Ipswich again , also cool looking bike that Honda.. We're still dealing with Anglia Research and Wolsey Probate in Ipswich, at least my Sister is.

[@jonathanloveday153]

Great to see you guys back in Blighty all safe and sound. Give us a shout out if you’re going to ride down to the New Forest area whilst you’re here as it would be great to meet up!

[@FreddieDobbs]

I will do- although probably over summer as I’ll have plenty if time then!🙂👋🏻🏍🤘🏻

[@MalContent]

Good to see you back in the UK. Looking forward to the Honda review..Rebel without a storm.

[@MOTOUK1]

Now that’s a looker Freddie! Love that it’s all black no chrome very today. 1 off engine or taken from another Honda? Will wait for the video. Cheers Nick

[@Duckie313]

It's the same engine as the Africa Twin, and the new NT1100, but tuned diffrently for low end torque. It's a lovely engine, makes the bike surprisingly sporty for a cruiser.

[@FreddieDobbs]

Isn’t it- it really is a slick looking bike👌🏻 It’s quite wye opening jumping onto a modern Japanese bike. They’re really very good!

[@MOTOUK1]

@@FreddieDobbs can’t go wrong mechanically using that tried and tested 1100cc motor. Looks awesome 👏

[@lord.onk99]

Great vid Fred, can we see a bit more of Monica please. Fank you.

[@roberthardy2013]

Such Enthusiasm, Much Wow! Great to see you both back, it’s nice to hear Monika giggle! We are in Kenilworth and it’s quiet round here as well. I got my garage door blown on my head because of Eunice - it still hurts! Love the coffee shop, they have some great bits and pieces, I prefer a proper breakfast not a fakemast though…

[@FreddieDobbs]

Oh wow- glad you survived without too much damage!🤕 It’s a brilliant cafe! I know my breakfast choice isn’t to everyone’s taste😆

[@Adam-mo2qw]

Yeah you should have your own prime channel or something. Amazing stuff 👏

[@henryhartley9993]

Nice one guys, looking forward to the Honda review...

[@allsearpw3829]

Hi, suits you Sir, the jacket and the Honda, with Monika getting a little blown about by the wind . Black is Black and it looks like it,s back . Fun all the way .

[@williamjsmith9877]

What a gentleman, opening the door for Monica, very old school, nice.

[@michaelpullen8527]

Oh no! Now everyone will be in our favourite spot in Ipswich, it’s a great spot and great prices. So how long in UK? Or did I miss that in all the videos posted.

[@richardbarrett-peck8395]

Hello you 2 Welcome home to a somewhat blustery day, the walk to the waterfront looked breezy alas the breakfast looked far from appetising I hope it tasted better than it looked. Looking forward to your review of the Honda. Regards

[@michaelbrown5900]

Hey Freddie, fantastic video as always. I wondered where you buy your t-shirts from with the thicker neck stitch, I’ve been trying to find some for ages!

[@PhilipBallGarry]

Nice to have you guys back if only for a short time 😁🙏. I love the way you selected the biggest knife possible to open that package! 📦🔪 For a moment I thought I had the wrong channel 😳😂 P.s. I want that jacket! 👍😁

[@fariss8327]

It snowed a little yesterday and my neighbours fence fell down but my garden swing was still intact so I went to play badminton with friends. Storm Eunice was definitely overhyped but not as much as the Khan vs Brook fight haha. Can't wait for the video on that rebel, it looks so stealthy I'm black

[@staceytoepfert7684]

I’ve been saving up for this Rebel 1100. Don’t have what I need yet but it’s cool.

[@gdfggggg]

Glad to see you back. I love the UK even when the weather is shit. First impressions of the bike are, very good.

[@FreddieDobbs]

Thanks!🙂🇬🇧 I really, really like the Rebel!

[@robert07787183]

Glad to see you back in blighty bud. I have a scooter it's an aprilia 850 SRV quite rare. It's big and very fast. If you can you should try and do a review on one. I live in Colchester it would be nice to see what you think. Take care.

[@markable5338]

Oh boy. England sure has changed. When I come back to visit the UK I always look forward to a good old fashioned English Breakfast. But if I was served facon and guacamole for my breakfast I would be mortified. Man o man.

[@klapphelmfahrer4148]

The Rebel does look good, can't wait for the review.

[@greyriddance64]

You can still put led bulbs in this taillight, so you get the extra brightness, lower drain, and same looks.

[@jonathanstyles5033]

Looks good but I found the riding position uncomfortable, let's see how you find it. I managed to locate one of the last CB1100RS's instead, before euro5 killed them off. Still has old school looks and is more practical, your welcome to ride it if you're interested, once spring arrives that is!😁😁

[@FreddieDobbs]

Oooooo Jonathan, I’m desperate to ride the CB1100!! Please do ping me an email so I can stay in touch!🙂🙌🏻🙌🏻. [e-mail]

It is a school desk, i had one in my Maths class circa 1980, lethal on your fingers

[@Posttraumaticgrowth]

Always great videos, thank you👍🤙🚀

[@FreddieDobbs]

Really appreciate it, thanks Jasper!🙂

[@1990-t1j]

I was tenuously interested in a Rebel 1100 until I saw one in the local dealer. Hard to tell it apart from the 500 it was parked next to. I'm sure it's a great bike - the engine is superb - but I was underwhelmed. Surely there isn't enough room on it for you. Good old school rear light set-up, Freddie. Great jacket. Only a medium? It looks really good on you. Ipswich looks a good place. I've only been through it once: on my old R1100GS in the late 90s.

[@willgarrod9907]

Want to go to Ipswich now!!! Can you park a bike near (& safely) to that cafe?

[@FreddieDobbs]

I LOVE Ipswich- especially the marina!🙂👌🏻 You can; I park my bike right next to the outdoor tables if I’m sitting outside (depending on which coffee spot we choose), or next to the window if there’s no outdoor seating. It’s a very nice spot for bikers🙂👌🏻🏍☕️

[@icemodica7118]

Hi Freddie, good to see you back in the UK safely. Another great video, where did Monick lean her video shills or is she just a natural? Her filming and editing skills are to be envied. Your commentary is first class which makes it all very interesting.

[@The1977andi]

Great video, don't know why but your UK videos seem so much more interesting. Even though I'd know where I'd rather be this time of year🌅🌅

[@rumblebumble1196]

Like the look of that Rebel.... it did get proper windy here. Lost half of the fence and I sat in my workshop with the America just incase!!! Good to see the lightning going back to stock on the Bonnie BUT!!!!!!! Seeing you waving a carving knife around in the bedroom 🙈🙈🙈 that's a whole new series!!! Oh yeah and how do you turn the lights on in that room? You need that switch moved 😉. Welcome back to Suffolk you pair 😉

[@FreddieDobbs]

I did have to hide the Rebel in a supermarket trolley dock while shopping because ai was scared it may get blown over!🌪🏍 I can confirm- if is the wrong bed for the room with that light switch😆⚡️

[@paulfosbery6026]

After 70+ years of motorcycling, British and Japanese bikes, and presently the proud owner of the Honda CMX250C Rebel, (1985-2012), I am looking forward to your opinion of the new CMX1100 Rebel and the sound of its parallel-twin engine at slow tick over with its 270-degree, crank, "vee-twin" torque and sound!! Excellent addition to the long-range of popular Honda Rebels!.....😀...😀...!

Is it the same as the one at the start looks a different colour?

It’s the Marstone Jacket from Triumph’s “Lifestyle collection”; www.triumphmotorcycles.co.uk/shop/product-detail It was the same jacket throughout the video- it’s very good quality, I highly recommend it🙂👌🏻

Cool video, but you got one thing wrong. Its 86 Hp. Here in the US anyway. Love mine. Plus got a storage unit under the seat and also a USB socket there. A love the DCT dul transmission version. Unbelievable programming in the user mode for performance.

[@leebarber7354]

I enjoyed test riding the Rebel but didn't find it very comfortable. Ive ridden loads of cruisers but it was the least comfortable. The cvt sticks out a bit and seating position was odd. Engine is a peach though. Interested to see how you find it.

[@stevezahn8056]

It’s nice to see you back in England. It seems so nice over there. It I just can’t seem to understand your English breakfast. Beans for breakfast? I guess you got to grow up with it. But if you ever had some good southern grits you would forget about beans. Would you rather stay in England or Tenerife?

Welcome back, look forward to seeing your opinion on this bike, if you do get in touch with Kawasaki, maybe try the W800, especially the café racer style. Interested to hear your thoughts 👍

As much enthusiasm and energy you show on your vids I hope you do the same in the next vid for a bike am thinking of getting. Please give it a thorough review, pros and cons of the bike...well it's a Honda so they are very reliable but just looking forward for your feedback. One thing I have to say is for 1100cc cruiser, Honda should have had a shaft drive instead of chain. Trying to maintain that chain can be a pain plus one would need a heavy due lift to work on it. Looking forward for your next vid and great to see you both back home 😊
