Another great instalment of this series. Scotland is amazing! Cheers for the vid!

[@Gallagher2112]

Absolutely loving this series! You’re proving that a smaller/lighter bike can be a hell of a lot of fun. Good on ya mate!

[@Mrfish2015]

Thanks , you get to see more on a smaller bike

[@ronboe6325]

Your production quality keeps getting better. Sounds like this trip, especially today, has been great therapy. Well done!

[@Mrfish2015]

Thanks mate , appreciate it

[@tartanblackcountrytourist]

So happy you explored the B976 it is the perfect introduction to highland single track roads .. Yes the views are breath taking hahaha .. Yow know your on the good roads when you pass through snow gates.. I did it in the golden hour and with snow on the summits. On my Braemar to Tomintoul NC 500 vlogs . Made me cry . we are less than dots on this landscape. 👌🏻👍🏻💯🎬📽📸

[@Mrfish2015]

Wow sound like that was amazing

[@JTX-mv5ln]

Just picked up my Honda transalp A week ago looking forward to doing a Scottish or Welsh trip next year.

[@FenTour]

Great video, it’s lovely to hear your reaction to being in Scotland for the first time. But now you have been the magnetic attraction will bring you back time and time again. Bruce, me ans the clan were on those roads in August around Glanshee up to Tomitool etc, amazing roads probably the best in the UK. My only problem was having to blur my speedo in my KZbin episode, at least in the little Honda and with no Bruce up your ass the speedo stayed nice and clear to read! Cheers.

[@Mrfish2015]

Ha ha , definitely no blurring , it’s stunning there

[@FenTour]

@@Mrfish2015 cheers indeed it is.

[@alexandersmith8241]

That's my back yard! Loving that you enjoy Scotland, listening to your commentary makes me think I take it for granted a little, I'll appreciate what I have a little more after that. That section of the 93 from Blairgowrie to Ballater is a regular weekend run. Lots more bonny roads around here though. Great vid, great job.

[@Mrfish2015]

Thanks , all good roads , you can’t go wrong

[@johnbrandreth3140]

Great video really enjoyed it .Scenery just amazing even in that weather . Looking forward to the next installment .

[@Mrfish2015]

Thanks 👍 glad you enjoyed it

[@JohnDoe-xr5is]

I'm an American in the (American) midwest...made my first trip to Scotland last year. Made it up to the highlands too. This video brings back memories.

[@Mrfish2015]

It’s an amazing place you must have loved it

[@FatherCez]

What a massive change selecting the correct music makes. The "I wish I was there myself" feeling kicks in. The more I watch it, the more I enjoy it, EP1 was good, but every next is getting better and better. Good Stuff!!!

[@Mrfish2015]

Thanks mate , appreciate it

[@MrG61-u9k]

Nicely put together video. Thanks for taking us on your journey 👍

[@Mrfish2015]

Glad you enjoyed it , thanks

[@PeteskiRides]

After being stuck in London this week working, this has given me a nice slice of home. Cheers mate and glad you liked it 👍, next time I’ll make sure I’m home and I’ll join you

[@Mrfish2015]

I don’t think you were suffering too much whilst I was there 😂

[@n22pdf]

Looked a great ride dude.. NX performing well by the looks of it :) Pete

[@Mrfish2015]

It’s perfect for this trip

[@spugone]

I loved that route, it the one we did for the Clan ride, stunning views mate. The roads encourage the bikes to push on. I live a lot closer to them than you and have not really ridden up there. Loved the video. 👍🏻👍🏻

[@Mrfish2015]

I did see some of it on Bruce’s channel (I recognised as I was going past the ski centre)

[@hartley383]

Absolutely loving this series Mr Fish. Been to Scotland several times and just making me want to do it again, ummmm I’ve got 3 days holiday left 🤔. You’re doing it the right way, taking it easy, soaking it in . Great stuff. 👍🏻

[@Mrfish2015]

Thanks mate. Glad you’re liking them

[@martyndunn1905]

Amazing video and beautiful scenery, I can't wait to go there in 7 weeks.

[@Mrfish2015]

You’ll have a blast

[@vaughan350x3]

Nice to see folk dabling with roads outside the NC500. You came through the village I live in, Nethybridge. The road from Braemar to Glenshee ski centre is one of my favourite stretches to be naughty on. Often nip up there for a coffee. See Dulsie bridge? I’ve jumped off that 😆 Great vid, cheers for sharing.

[@Mrfish2015]

A nice playground . You’re very lucky

[@duanestiles4821]

Little honda nx 500 is a good mile muncher and a great way to get around thx for sharing your experience with us

[@Mrfish2015]

It sure is! , thanks for watching

[@skripka]

Great journey Mr Fish, brilliant route avoiding the A9, glad to see the Struie is still open, last crossed there on my DT 175 around ‘97. Wait till you see the west coast, best is yet to come !

[@Mrfish2015]

Thanks mate

[@The_Arby]

Welcome to Scotland Mr Fish...Wait til you get to the West Coast, much more beautiful 🙂

[@Mrfish2015]

Sunnier too lol

[@righ_na_coille]

First came across your channel when I was researching the CL500, which I did go on to buy. Absolutely loving these videos of your trip to Scotland. Perhaps I'll have to get an NX500 next year!

[@Mrfish2015]

One of each is the way forward lol

[@jamescant6625]

👍 love it , I used to drive (car ) to Glenshee A93 , most winter weekends in the early 1980's to go skiing 😁 , cracking road . Also ridden it many times , my perfect highland bike was the Yamaha TDM900 , 85hp, not too heavy , tall roader. Living in Suffolk now and have to get back home occasionally for the scenery and roads.

[@Mrfish2015]

I used to love the tdm’s

[@moonrakercbr1649]

Thoroughly enjoying the tour videos on the backroads of Scotland. My style of touring

[@Mrfish2015]

Thanks

[@deepjoyrides]

We went over that same pass in our camper a week later on beautiful sunshine & even stopped in the same layby for pictures. We were heading from forfar to Moray Firth. Absolutely love Scotland. Done it many times on bikes. Next year I'm taking the bike again. We also stopped at Glenlivet.🐟✊🏻

[@Mrfish2015]

Nice one

[@janeharris9879]

Was on NC500 last month, 5th/24th Sept. Weather abominable but highlands majestic. Camping was interesting!! Will go back! People adorable. (2 bikes, 2 ladies, a Transalp and an Er6N)

[@Mrfish2015]

Sounds great , I bet camping was challenging.. lol

[@johncrawford2304]

The Cairngorms ❤ Defo one of the best riding roads in the country. Shame about the weather. Fabulous when sunny

[@Mrfish2015]

It’s stunning

[@andyhorsfall9394]

Very entertaining trip vids so far, thanks very much.

[@Mrfish2015]

Glad you like them!

[@mattguest1094]

I noticed in your last post you rode right past my house as I live in Carsie lol. I'm lucky to have the snow roads right on my doorstep and they're great on the bikes. If you're ever up this way again, give me a shout I could show you some of the other wee roads around here that are quite fun. Wee technical twist roads are the order of the day up here. Have fun and ride safe.

[@Mrfish2015]

Thanks , ha ha .. next time I’ll spend more time to see more

[@keithsbitsandpieces]

Stunning mate 😊 I want to go again soon I just love to stop and listen to the silence ;)

Hi being fairly local to Scotland (cumbria) Scotland and our area never gets old.....🙂 as a long time pondering on cb500x aka nx500 I've finally got that motor albeit in a voge DS525x....and wow what a bike this is for the value👌👌👌 I'm impressed that your comfy on that NX being big lad....ps recommend you try Orkney and Shetland....all the best...

They are on my list to do , the bike struggles more than I do 😂

[@mickd802]

Great scenery up there and amazing roads,as for highest in the uk I was told great Dunn fell road upto the radar static was over 800 metres,sure was high last time I visited

[@Mrfish2015]

I’ve been told that’s not passable for motors it’s cyclists only as it’s restricted access only

Wanlockhead? Been there, highest village in Scotland. Did your route on my RT1200 twenty years ago, snowing in the cairngorms, bloody freezing, heated seats and socks were essential! Thanks for the vid, love from leeds x

These NX/CB engines like being above 3.5 - 4 RPM. Great video by the way.

[@kademmuratdemir8273]

Mr Fish May I ask you something about heated grips. As I see, You use oxford heated grips for the bike. This model has optional heated grips also but I dont remember the price of it. is there any specific reason to prefer oxford instead of honda's original ones. Thank you for the video. Have a nice ride ^^

[@Mrfish2015]

They are much cheaper and run hotter they are thicker than the standard grips .. I have the hind ones on my cl500 and prefer these , but they drain the battery if I forget to turn them off

[@thebackyardengineer9110]

Where did you get the windshield deflector from

[@Mrfish2015]

Mra, had it for nearly 10 years

[@baldomeroh]

Mr. Fish! I'm planning to upgrade my bike from Crf Rally. How do u feel about your NX500? Do u think you'll upgrade to another in the next year/s? I'm thinking about Aprilia Tuareg 660 but I love Honda so I'll look for transalp but if you feel like the NX500 Is more than enough then I'll buy the NX for my next bike. 😄

[@Mrfish2015]

Up to you , I have a crf250 Rally as well
