    This video felt like oldschool FortNine. No ads, just great production quality.

    The center stand deserves at least an honorable mention.

    It's friggin' hilarious that the vintage Honda ad highlighted "how great it brakes" by just locking up the rear wheel.

    As a bike nerd from Japan, I’ve been obsessed with your videos for years. The insight, cinematography, humor, and storytelling are all on another level. Being able to understand English feels kinda like a cheat code or something, and your channel is a big reason why. Thanks for making these vids.

    I just picked up a 1984 750 Nighthawk S 2 weeks ago. The bike I wanted when I graduated high school.

    I miss the kick starter that every bike had along with a seat that was hinged on the side and flipped open.
