Wasn’t expecting this from the RS250!!

[@TARONYX.]

My dad watches you guys while eating his dinner, Thankyou for making these vids, I like seeing my dad happy ❤😂

[@blackdoublezero]

what's he having for tea ?

[@BRMCaptChaos]

Sit down with him and talk about it - you now know more than most. He'd enjoy it.

[@ewantodd]

Ha. I watch these vids in my dinner breaks lol. Quality lee. As always

[@TARONYX.]

@@BRMCaptChaos we already talk about them a lot, I told him when some American twat down the pub called / pronounced a GSXR a “jerrxerr” and I almost decked him 🤣

[@tonyaustin1895]

Big up to Mr Secret ....Your Boss, for the money he has spent on these amazing Motorbikes, and for keeping them not only running but racing them

[@John_Wood_]

must be some whale funding all this

[@andrewoverton5170]

And this is what most people forget. There's sod all profit in bike racing for those actually running teams, most times it's just wealthy enthusiasts piling their own money in for the fun. And without them we'd have no sport. We all owe these guys - and gals, like Faye Ho - a beer.

[@carlo6004]

Love them strokers. Never heard Neil talk so much😁

[@DuncanHolland]

Hearing that RS fire up did something to my nervous system. All senses on overload. Experienced motorcyclists look at me as if I'm from another planet when I say a 250 2-stroke is the pinnacle. But it is.

[@pmacc3557]

Where could a lad buy one

[@ReCheck_WotTheFluck]

Yeah, no experience with race bikes, but my RGV250P was the best bike I've owed/riden. Shouldn't of sold it, but like the owner before sold because of child on way. Rode RD's and Rg(s)'s all types/sizes(not 50/80) other than the rear straight. Now been priced out of the 2 stroke market. Had to get a lardie CBR600RR 08.

[@DuncanHolland]

@@ReCheck_WotTheFluck KR1 and Kr1-s here. 65bhp (allegedly) with the weight of a toothbrush. My, those Blades and YZFs were embarrassed. 👍

[@ReCheck_WotTheFluck]

@@DuncanHolland Rode a couple of KR1's but not the KR1S. Great bike. Nice but spares were like rocking house poop back in the day. Wouldn't like to think about nowadays.

[@DuncanHolland]

@@ReCheck_WotTheFluck Yep. They're going for silly money now, a good one over 10k. Still, your CB-RR's a good substitute.

[@Andy.01_uk]

Neil seemed happy in this one.. James Whitham is just a walking encyclopaedia on all things bikes and racing.. love you channel Lee.

[@brockett]

Thanks for posting these videos. They reveal the otherwise hidden people involved in the sport and the hard graft they contribute in a way that no other media can match.

[@colinstewart1432]

I see a purple spring, I think Maxton. Great seeing all the work involved behind the scenes. Every lap of race probably represents a workshop hour.

[@josefmd]

Picked up a Aprilia RS125 here in the states a few weeks ago! Love my 2 smokes!

[@poc329]

I love the 2 stroke. Lovely sound. Can't beat it.

[@nickk0019]

I wish I could smell this video!

[@AndyHumphries-cs4rv]

Loved hearing the RS, God I miss that sound, makes the hair on my neck stand up (none on top of my head!!) Used to run an LC with a TZ750 barrel in the the open 500, great sound!! Whit makes me laugh so much, I could watch him all day.😂😂😂

[@ManxAndy]

I can smell it from here on the IOM👍🇮🇲. Love two strokes….raced a KR1S in 92….best days….👍👌🇮🇲🏆

[@Mox3d]

God that sounded good. ❤️❤️

[@jamesrolfe3650]

Allways a good video with a happy (ish) neil and whitham 😂

[@K-so8gx]

You and neil together are great 👍

[@johnmccoubrey6042]

Cracking vlog Lee,I can smell the two stroke oil from here. You are surrounded by greatness Neill and Mr Whitham It just doesn't get any better..

[@ChumiStu]

What a fantastic guy Neil is. For some reason I want him to read me a bedtime story 😴

[@andrewoverton5170]

The stuff of nightmares 😂

[@ogofog9120]

That 250 is soo pretty

[@LyndonWilliams-jj7zx]

The 2 strokes are just great many thanks for the video 👌

[@Colin-ci5ll]

Well done Lee what we need is smell a vision lol😀

[@BigBadLoneWolf]

Things are getting technical, in the Eighties, we used a babies bottle to measure out the Castrol R40

[@paulkeogh3518]

Early morning practice and the smell of Castrol R drifting across the paddock. Those were great days.

[@BigBadLoneWolf]

@@paulkeogh3518 I was helping a sidecar team, so we only did early morning practice once. first year I went was in 81, and we camped in the paddock, bikes would wake you up, but then you just went back to sleep

[@robertwhite7906]

Had the odd buger fryed in it backin the day 🤪😝

[@terryhosker1298]

What a beutiful machine Lee

[@andrewthomas3326]

Quick tip lads. We pour 100 or 200ml of fuel in to the measuring tube then add the 2 stroke oil after. It saves loads of messing about. Great vids, keep up the good work!

[@minisla]

Two stroke the best sounds

[@andrewepps2927]

Poor old Neil , wearing the old boy out.😂

[@Colin8979]

Bruuuu that RC45 .. is just insane

[@markbooth6745]

Good video Lee, and Neil. That 250 sounds great.🔥🔥🔥🔥😃👍

[@johnbunkle3280]

Now I know you'll be back at the manx (always will be manx) I'll marshal this one, watching you and John were always the highlight of my marshaling year. And after last year I feel it's only right you'll get your leg over this year and be able to cheer you on. Come in all of the crew and family for a pint this time, the ginger btw.

[@jimgracie6403]

What a diffent style of video, love it and obviously you can see your passion on the mountain, brilliant.

[@Bigyin600]

Neil at 3 min 40 into the vid....Hawk thua 🤣🤣

Sounds as sweet as a nut ! By god you are going to enjoy riding that around the TT course after all the diesels, Just dont forget your left hand at the ready !!!

[@olithephoto]

Love a 2Stroke……..the sound and smell is just the best!

[@claretbuck1882]

Awesome bud 👍🏻

[@derekcomer4858]

How lucky are you Lee to be riding the rs and the 45, oh my goodness what beautiful bikes ☺️

[@captainsensible298]

When you mentioned an RS I thought you were talking about an Aprilia, then you wheel out a 250 Honda RS GP monster, it's most beautiful.

[@ragnarironspear1791]

Bet that smells awesome 😂

[@briandalgleish9768]

Love a 2 stroke, hats off to you guys

[@jaysmartin]

So good when you get Neil on the 45s. Suddenly, you cant get him to stop being a youtuber!

[@IRacingGreen]

You should take the bikes to the CRMC meeting at Donny at the end of July for a run out in the parades.

[@terrytopliss9506]

Like your impression of a kid in a sweet shop Lee,some nice kit there mate. Nice to see you more mobile. Thanks for the video.👍👍

[@racingfrank7]

Get to Cadwell park this Friday for the classic and retro trackday on the RS250. There is other RS250s going 😉

[@terryferguson4080]

Major workshop envy!

Looking forward to lots of 2-stroke content Lee! Speaking of v-twins, has there been any updates on the SP-2?

Can't beat the sound of a 2 stroke. Pity you can't send the smell. Would love to see it on track.

[@timclough3009]

Great to see how well you are walking again. Keep up the physio. Will you be getting to Oliver’s Mount this year? Hope so!

Ring a ding ding here we go! ❤️ it Lee can't wait to see you on track with it! 🔥🔥🔥

[@AdamWarwicker]

I had to start my RGV250 race bike by hand, it normally wasn't too bad, but I have fond memories of putting my gloves on before getting on track and having crusty, blistered hands...

My 250 was exactly the same as yours Lee.. It was bloody quick, can’t beat the two strokes. You running standard heads ? We ran VHM ones. Look forward to seeing you out on it 👍

[@ChrisHodgson86]

If only you mixed the fuel with strawberry scented oil 😂, back in the day we used to do that in random pre-delivery bikes at the dealership without telling the salesman.

[@TT_STUIE]

Saw carl fogarty at aintree on rs250. Think he won every race, even the open class. So, you doing the manx then?

[@ironzombi]

Right side race shift ? I would love to know the reasons for that, that is rather unique ?

[@aidengibson499]

Injury

[@stevenwilliams-mp5wo]

Was the 2 stroke mix 40:1 ?

[@fivedotsdave9723]

I would need to sell my house to be able to afford the half of those tool cabinets!!!

[@davetaylor4741]

I love the older bikes and especially the two strokes. At my age it was originally four strokes. Then came the big two stroke era. Back to the four stroke. And now the era of too many electronics, like anything mechanical. Not really interested in the modern stuff. What is the point of building a bike that can't be ridden by a human without a computer. Power to weight ratio on the two strokes totally changed racing. Listening to the start of a GP grid was awesome. Takes me back to better days.

[@cabovermike]

My heads spinning i dont know about your lee, R6/triumph/rc45's/yzr/honda superbike/bmw/R1/nsr250/aprillia have i missed any others, youve riden them all nearly, my faves still the R6 and nsr + yzr, be a good runout at the manx hopefully, cheers ,....

[@therealpaddy4687]

Chain and sprocket on right side.something you don't see every day.

Race ye for pink slips😜

Could anyone else smell the 2 stroke oil through their computer like me???@18'25

[@firebladeclements]

When's ya racing Lee?

[@PGU13BHEI]

Lean it over a bit next time. Get some fuel out of the overflows.

[@ReCheck_WotTheFluck]

Bit of a let down I was expecting a single cylinder 4 stroke. lol . Sound on the 360 is pretty poor, imo. Nice bike prefer a RGV250P. But then I'm a road abuser.

[@nicccccccccccccccccccccccck]

Whenever I can't start a bike, I sell it. Explains why I'm so poor

[@DeathsStalkerRVT]

Nice video Lee 😁 What year is that RS250? My first RS250 was a 1985 with a single disk, for its day is was miles ahead of the TZ's. My second RS250 was a 1987, very trick with a cassette gear box but it had a bad tendency to blow up and experience braking issues 😳 With all the problems American Honda was awesome with support even supplying a complete upgraded 1988 engine that my tuner did his magic making it a rocket that nobody could ever pass me on the straights 🚀😉

[@allanhughes7859]

I can almost smell the fumes !!! you should bottle it and sell it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@CraigOC1482]

My god that 45 is a beautiful machine especially in the colour scheme

[@leslieharding7514]

Who tf edited the bike running. Watched this for that

My dad said you are a pair of you know what a little bit too much will not hurt a little bit too little blows it up !!!!

[@Grandudeable]

More than two strokes you're a walker.

[@grachoderunwiderstehlichen]

125 cc to much 😁 ...i mean who win's 44teeth or a team with you inside ...do you practice only with this "heavy" motorbikes or is for a career as a racer also "lower" cubic with less wight intresting ? what do you like at single-zylinder or more zylinder and !!! disslike arguments ...a "real" mass debate 😆

[@terrazzo]

No need for all that faffing about with expensive oil, just chuck an egg cup of Flymo lawnmower oil in. She’ll be reet. 👍 😑
