This type of video is on par with what makes a written piece so special. It’s so personal and gives more time to ponder and offer more detail than a ride on / off review or account. I love it all dearly but really appreciate the time you give to these vids.

Delivery, duration & content are superb. Name-dropping yet self-effacing. A clever & enjoyable blend. And always entertaining, thanks.

Thanks for the upload. Another gem. Passed my test on a Suzuki X7 and bought a brand new 350LC May '81. Sooo much fun. In Niall Mackenzie's autobiography he names his favourite road just North of Glasgow and how he only got beaten once on it by a guy on an LC. Now the Drymen/Stockiemuir Road was my stomping ground but I bet it wasn't me who beat him!! (Athough it could have been my brother, he was BLOODY quick on a bike.)

Another really good look back at past biking times, I use to buy all the biking publications and PB was a fav back in the day when Ronnie and Gus were doing their thing great, great times, sadly missed, I passed my "big bike" test in 1979, I've owned a lot of really nice bikes over the years, from Honda CBX-6, to R6, to (5) Fireblade's, SP1, but I have to admit the GSX-R1000K5 was my all-time favorite, such an amazing machine, so capable of doing anything and the most comfortable full on Sports bike I've owned.

Neevsey,my first legal bike on the road was a 21bhp,10w,RD125lc,saved up from my16th birthday,untill two months before my 17th birthday, bought it second hand,in mint condition, I then pushed it too get on the A92,when they started construction on the bypass past my town, there was mile long strips of new perfect tarmac,where I used to thrash it back and forward, doing 100mph on the clocks, I know they where well out,but I didnt care! Then on the morning of my 17th birthday, I was up early and rode it too my YTS job🤣 Those where the days,gangs of us racing around on,RDs,MBX,DTs,and looking for Honda superdreams to beat on the road!<br>But the first time I saw a Rd350lc I was hooked,the RD125lc though was pretty special too, thanks for the great video,it really has brought back a few memories 😂

<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FZCaOOBPqdY&t=733">12:13</a> That’s a superb question about written journalism as opposed to video content ! <br><br><b>A good answer from Neevsy too</b>

I never knew your history and how you got the job with MCN, but I started following you on YouTube through MCN because your reviews are genuine, and thanks to that genuinity, your review on the 22 panigale v4s made me pull the trigger. Got it 6 weeks ago and love it to bits.

Neevesy you're probably thinking "nobodies going to watch this one" but you're wrong! Enjoyed that and I'm looking forward to more stories 😊

I had an RZ 350 (same bike) and loved it! It felt much faster than it was. ;-)
