Suzuki GSX 1400, "First Ride in the Sunshine" !

[@PaulR387]

No feeling like getting on your motorcycle out for the first proper run in the summer, also Del boy we had our first Motorhome trip to Warwick this week and for the first time I was sporting my dell boys garage T-shirt with pride, after a few days I whinged to my wife that nobody had recognised it, half an hour later we are in the pub and this Aussie ask me what bike I had, I replied how did you know I had a bike? He replied? Dell boy’s garage!!, you were than the subject of conversation with your great teaching methods and contribution helping people, your videos are worldwide Dell, Well done to you and Penny, keep up the great work!!

[@Moonfleet41]

Hi Paul.. Wow, that's a wonderful story, thank you so much for such loyal support, and to your Aussie friend too, what an honour to be regarded world wide. We're so pleased that they content we offer up to the net can have a use for our fellow riders and maybe make a few lives easier out there in the world.. Take care my friend.. Keep in touch, and have great weekend.. D&Pxx

[@alexmorgan3435]

Fabulous. Bike sounds awesome. Thanks for taking us along with you. All the hard work was worth it. Nice to see that you are a great ambassador for bikers riding slow through towns and villages, but the open road is fair game and what great roads you have to ride. Looks like it was a gorgeous day. Therapy for the soul. ATB and thanks again.

[@Moonfleet41]

You said that right Alex, it was a great day out and lots of fun, like you say therapy for the soul!

[@leckywoznicki5393]

Thank you for all your videos & it's nice that you put the side stand in as we've all been there.

Sure thing buddy, just goes to prove how important a working side stand switch is aye!!

[@brynthomas2047]

Lived in South Africa for a while - now back here and I just love going fishing in Weymouth using my big 14 to get there and bombing around the lanes in Dorset on the way. Like them so much bought a spare one. Fed up being let down by modern electronics on new bikes.

[@paulkinsella612]

What a glorious sound track. Throttle therapy at its best. Makes me miss my old 14 even more. All the hard graft you put in to the bike was worth it. Now planning a group ride to your neck of the woods to include Zig Zag Hill.

[@Moonfleet41]

Hey Paul... yeah, i can't think that microphone waffle would ever be better on a ride video than just the sound of the bike working hard... and if you're coming to play around here.. and haven't done Zig Zag before.. then go careful mate.. do at least one tip toe test run up and down to get the lay if it first...two of the inside bends drop steeply like a step and are uneven.. it still catches me out after 30 years..lol.. but if you know it, then you'll already know that.! Ride safe buddy.!

[@howder1951]

Thanks for the ride Del, I love the curves, hills and the brush cutouts on the trees. Coming from the flat lands of central Canada where I have to ride 4 hours to find a curve and a hill, perhaps you will understand my appreciation of these things, ride on Bro!

[@Moonfleet41]

Oh thanks buddy, we are very fortunate to have such awesome riding scenery... you don't have to go fast here to have fun, and now summer's here, even better!

[@Goldwing1500rider]

The zig zag hill really something, I wouldn’t mind riding that…. Pretty Kwel…. I’m guessing it’s your favorite spot !!!

[@johnhudson1692]

Thoroughly enjoyed the vid Del - it's been quite a while since you made a 'riding' video. The change in content was most welcome and harks back to 'the early(er)' days of your channel. Looking forward to a Del + Penny ride out for a cuppa and a sticky bun !!.

[@Moonfleet41]

Thanks buddy, with so much garage footage behind us now, we are planning to do a little more riding... we'll be investing in some new cameras, so this is a small taste of things to come, glad you approve!... and sticky bun, hell yeah!

​@@Moonfleet41 Gday Del, Great to ride along and hear the sounds. But, does the sound of the exhaust through your ears when you're on the bike match what we hear when we watch it? Don't get me wrong, it sounds awesome, l was wondering how close the vid sound is to the live sound. Great to ride along with you. Kind Regards

Personally, I think the hippie trailer should have been towed by a VW bus. Would have been more appropriate. But DAMN! The countryside in the UK is amazing! Always on the edge of my seat during these vids... driving on the wrong side of the road, houses and hedges right next to the street. I wonder if the people living in those homes have to buy a "just in case someone slams into my house" insurance! Thanks for the ride, and HUGE happy birthday to miss Penny, also!

[@Moonfleet41]

Hey Doc, you're not wrong, some houses are so on the road that they practically have to get the road closed to clean their windows lol and a few have armco placed round their corner walls, specially in small villages, where you often see thatched roofs getting the edges of the straw stripped off by big trucks!

Nice to see you out among the shrubbery and hedges again! 🏍

[@eMotion_Video_UK]

Dorset used to be my riding playground when lived down there. Any chance you could post a link to the location of zigzag hill. I did a rider training course with a ex police rider on that road. I have searched maps for hours trying to find it without luck. He rode that road with only throttle control at a proper pace and didn’t use the brakes once until he had to stop for the roundabout at the end. I was told to follow him staying a constant 3 ft off his back wheel doing the same. This was to help with my throttle confidence and control in right handlers, as I found left ones ok. Naturally I did use the brakes a bit gently, but it was some of the most intense and enjoyable riding I have ever done. It would be great to go back and try to do it again. At the following coffee stop I was genuinely searching his handlebars for any unusual switches, as I was convinced he was turning his brake light off because I didn’t believe it was possible to slow so rapidly without braking. I have never seen riding skills like that and would love go with him again, but I suspect he’s no longer around due to the time frame and his age at the time. Just to give you an idea, he was on an ST1100 and I was one a Fireblade and I could not keep up with him even after two days of his instruction. (The speed limits were an option). These two days and Dorset has some special memories for me.

[@Moonfleet41]

Ah Zig Zag Hill is on Google Maps mate, on the B3081... thanks for sharing your memories!

[@allenhuling598]

[@rickrogers2649]

Beautiful countryside, beautiful roads and beautiful weather. Doesn't get much better than that Del. Zig Zag Hill must be the UK version of Tail of the Dragon. I'm surprised how close many of the houses are to the road surface. Considering the average skill level of US drivers many of them would be Drive-Thrus in short order. Thanks for the ride-along. Blessings and safe riding to you and Penny. ❤👍👍

[@Moonfleet41]

Sure thing Rick, it is a challenge, but not enjoyable tbh, the switchbacks are far too tight, and they drop in height like a step, you can't ride if fast, no matter how fast you are! Penny rode this on her Harley some years ago and it's always a challenge, unlike the Dragon that's 17 miles of fast bends... not to mention the glorious canyons you have there in the mountain ranges!

Hi Del, I do miss the UK at times, seeing that ride reminds me of my home in north wales but i think you should come and have a motorcycle ride here in Otago NZ. When you get out of the towns theres less traffic brilliantl scenery and sometimes you'll be out and not see any other traffic at all. Great times, best wishes and ride safe mate.

Hiya Del, I rode those roads today. I live in West Moors, set off from home about half 2, up to Three Legged Cross, up past the Horton Inn, through Tollard Royal, stopped off at Compton Abbas airfield cafe for tea and a baguette, then carried on down Zig Zag hill and up to Shaftesbury, then back down to the Blandford bypass, then down to Wimborne past Kingston Lacy, back up to the Horton Inn, then Three Legged Cross and home at West Moors. A really great sunny Friday afternoon ride, but after an hour, the Speed Twin's standard seat is considerably less than comfortable. I recognised some of the lanes, but where else did you go?

[@Moonfleet41]

Hi Neil, sounds like you had a great ride today, great to have some decent weather at last... I did a round ride, just taking in my favourite roads... up the A350, through the s-bends at Child Okeford, you probably noriced Shaftesbury, then down to the bottom of Zig Zag for a couple of passes up and down, then straight over the top and through Tollard Royal, like you... as you know that follows on to Sixpenny Handley and then followed the Cranborne road all the way to Wimborne and up through Cramborne Chase to Kingston Lacey to finish! I ran out of camera card space at that moment and had only taken one for each camera! Loads of other roads, routes and villages as you know, so I'll probably do a few more of these as it seems they're very popular!

[@neillambton4065]

@@Moonfleet41 hi Del, it must be me, but I'm fin going down Zig Zag hill, but going up, I never get the bends right, I always seem to lose my rhythm. Maybe next time i'l go up in "rain mode" which softens the throttle. In road or sport mode, riding round on very little throttle can at times be very snatchy.

[@Moonfleet41]

Sure thing mate, up is defintely harder than going down, and everybody runs wide on the left handers... I just leave my Scrambler in sport mode all the time and just slip the clutch in 1st, it works real well... Zig Zag is most certainly useful practice for throttle and clutch control! Anybody who thinks they can rag up and down it has probably never ridden it lol and the proof is, the amount of bikes that have ended up in the woods!!

This was awesome, Del! Must feel great to be riding her after doing all that wrenching… beautiful roads you selected! Loved how you left the side stand bit in the vid- that was funny stuff. Tell me though, does she feel as heavy as she appears? Regards to both of you… 🏍👍🏍

Hi Gary, thanks for your kind words... just testing the water to see if a ride video now and again is popular and it certainly seems to be! It is a bulky bike, but not heavy... only a shade over 200kgs, the same weight as my 1200 Scrambler... I think it more looks heavy than is heavy! Have a great weekend both, D&Px

@@Moonfleet41 Good stuff, Del- yes the ride videos are good because we get to see you enjoy the bikes after all your hard work on them. Simple as that! Enjoy… 😎

Made me smile nearly as much as i bet you were , i love riding mine , power handling and it just feels right , be wary as they do have a habit of dropping the fuel pressure regulator of the fuel pump

Thanks Mike, good insight, every bike has a weak link somewhere!
