You need to throw a 100k subscriber party, a biker meet in a large field near Ipswich - a couple of bands, stalls, biker gear and bikes, call it 'Dobbs' and make it an annual event.

I'm relatively new to bike riding. At 63, I chose to buy a Royal Enfield Meteor 350 to start my riding obsession. This clip caught my attention by the title, and I have to say, I have not been so impressed with a "Scientific Research" video in ALL the thousands of videos I've watched over 18 months. I don't know if it's because I've just come back from England, so it brought back memories of an amazing holiday, visiting pubs and walking the lane ways of seaside villages, or it could have been your delivery of the video, and you're not too hard on the eye (I might be 63, but I'm not blind!) It was so informative and an absolute delight to watch. Needless to say, I am now an avid follower (bordering on obsessive 😅 ) Thankyou, just THANKYOU!

Harley's are a stage in everyone's life that you go through if you can afford it. I owned 5 in my lifetime and now happily bumbling around on a Classic. A different format to the usual and a pleasent change. Listening to 2 guys just chatting unscripted; perfect 👍

Good video Freddie. I got to say looking at the side by side comparison of the Enfield to the Harley is totally apples to oranges. There’s no comparison. The Enfield is a nice little bike with old school nostalgia. The hog is a beast. I’m totally sure you could have the same amount of fun on both bikes, and on the Enfield it would a lot cheaper. But you just can’t beat the Harley power and style. And life’s to short to run around on a 500.

@grahamkorn6236 Жыл бұрын
Life too short to run around on an RE 500 Classic but I think it would be fine on one of their 650s. I was always disappointed that they went with the 350 to replace the Bullets - 500 single with another 10-15 hp that could easily hold 70 two up would have been a lot more versatile.

'Not a new bike pretending to be a classic' is exactly how I feel about my Bullet 500 - compared to an Interceptor or even the Himmy (which I know you love but as said, I find a bit soulless), the Bullet just has so much character. It is the bike that's captured my heart, despite it being not at all capable. I just love bimbling around on it. All the best mate

Freddie, It wasn't the Harley that made me watch this. The Royal Enfield 500 classic is a beautiful machine. Could be said it is the last real classic 'British' motorcycle ever to be produced by my reckoning. I have a Meteor which I love, which will be replaced when I retire by an Interceptor, though a Classic Reborn might be the interim. I'm not anti-Harley they just don't spark with me, and I just couldn't justify the financial outlay. They seem to look out of place on gritty English roads, despite being beautiful in their own right. They get a lot attention from on-lookers, whereas the Enfield seems to be more joy for the actual person on the seat? Smiles per mile winner goes to ......RE! Another great video.

If you want a genuinely old-school bike (i.e. with a basic architecture that goes back 50 years) but with enough grunt to manage modern road conditions, I recommend checking out a Guzzi 850 V7. It has its roots in the late-70s Guzzi V50 and still has air-cooling, shaft-drive and a pushrod / overhead valve motor, but I surprised myself on a single carriageway A road this afternoon to see I was doing 75 mph with no stress at all. I think you tested a 750 V7 on Tenerife a while back but the 850's a jump up in capability while still retaining that old-school feel.

I'm not sure what a HD experience is. Every time I do a demo ride, I'm surprised by how different one model's ride is to the next. If you rode that SPort Glide, then a Fat Bob, then a Heritage, then a Fat Boy, and you couldn't look at them, I bet you'd never consider they were from the same mfg let alone the same platform. They do all share a heap of weight if you don't hold them upright at stops though.

I understand why you like this bike. You look right on it. Do they do a 114 version of this? I like it with the small fairing. My favourite Harley is the 114 Fat Bob. Not only would I have taken my helmet with you, I'd put a disc lock on any bike anywhere in GB. Great panniers on this 107. I agree. I hate soft luggage. It looks nice around the Ipswich area. Long time since I've been there, but as I'm moving back to England from Portugal, I may ride down from Yorkshire. 1990 [Nick J]

I’ve had a Honda VTX1300 since 2011 doesn’t get a second glance, bought a Meteor 350 and lots of people comment for just being an Enfield.

I would go buy that Sport Glide tomorrow if it had some nice spoked wheels. Everything else on it looks great, and I love it without the fairing, but these rims remind me of the (imho) rather ugly cast wheels that was on my old Yamaha TR1, before I converted it to spoked. I'll stick with my 48 for now I guess :)

Great video, as always. I have a Tribute Black (ordered it within minutes of it being orderable!) and I in run the Tribute Black FB group. Interestingly there are 2000 on them, not 1000. 1000 for Europeean market numbered x of 1000, and another 1000 for the other rest of world market, simply numbered x (not of 1000). Cheers fellas.

I got my Tribute black last March from a guy who had just bought a sport glide and could not keep 2 bikes. I paid £5,400 wit had 275 miles on the clock it is number 462, it now has 6,800 miles on the clock and i love it, a keeper indeed. My other bike is a 99 Harley night train.

Funny that. I sold my '09 Night Train after having it for 10 yrs. Was a beautiful bike and got top dollar for it @ 32k. But I was drawn to the Tribute for its nostalgic feel and have one now a year and a half. Getting close to 70yo. Rode them all in almost 60 yrs of riding. Now time to lay back and take in the scenery and nostalgia of it all. Cheers from downunder.

Great to see Danny again, on the beautiful Royal Enfield classic. I was getting worried a few years ago, that motorcycles were turning into Mutant Insects. Loved the Harly Davison but it's more a collectors item, l prefer a workhorse.
