I am 70 yr old woman, have MS, and was diagnosed at 39yrs. I love riding my Triumph Street Twin motorbike! I call it bike therapy 😁

Hey mate hope you are all good out there. Dont get on CZcams much these days, see you havnt uploaded for a while.

I own one ( 1500 ) and I love her.

The legendary Bonang Road in Far East Gippsland, Victoria is on any serious bikers to ride list. 105kms of endless mountain corners on a challenging run through the forest, now fully sealed and mostly repaired …

you're a combination of whining Aus & whinging pom.. pass the dam things.. you're not on a scooter

I've owned 3 Harley 1200 Sportster models with twin front discs, the Sportster Sport, Roadster and XR1200. An excellent all round mid capacity cruiser. I would like another but truth is I could buy a Meanstreak for much less. Bit heavier than I'd like but saving thousands of dollars is hard to argue with.

missed the point of a big bike.. there are no hills.. or moving chicaines.. blip gone

Best review going! How tall are you? I’m looking at getting one, I’m 5ft 7/8” would you say it’s doable? Cheers! Gonna watch the rest of your videos now! 🙏

I just got back from there today. Where you pulled up at the Wier there is a road (you can see it in your video) across the other side of the main road and that is where the tennis court is. You can still see concrete walls, driveways and kerbing and make out the streets. Further along the road toward the power station is a concrete pad area and stairs which looked to be a shop or post office. Hope this helps for your next trip. 😊

Im curious what took you to Australia.. or were you born there.. im from uk and have friends in Australia and they talk about the potential safety issues on planning long distance travel

Im loving my vstrom..i do get wind buffering but nothing compared to my naked bandit lol.... so at the moment i can put up with it... great video

Where are you Paddy? I miss your adventure videos! I hope all is well!

When you stood looking at the weir, you were just upstream from the village. My street was the second street as you drove in from Tully and was directly opposite the large waterfall you saw downstream from the weir.

I lived in Cardstone from 1983-1988 and attended school there. I lived opposite the post office and tennis court. I could see the waterfall out of my bedroom window and went to sleep listening to it every night. I went back 4 years ago and found the slab of the tennis court and my old driveway, a few of the trees were still in the yard. I miss it still today.

It is fast

Those bags will sag with weight

That waterfall you showed at 9:05 on the vertical rock face was directly opposite the PS Super's house. It was the first Cardstone house you come across when driving from Tully. So, river and that waterfall on your right and first house on the left; then you come across the village, also on the left. I have to go back again after watching this. 😢😊

10:24 I lived at Cardstone village as a kid from about 1963 to 1967. Was a great time in my life. My father went back later on to work there again in about 1984-5 until he retired. Part of his job as Power Station Superintendent was the dismantling of the village. still love the place even though the village is gone. When I last visited there, it was very hard to recognise the features of the village that I remember from childhood and 20 years later visiting my parents as the rejuvenation of rainforest was well underway. Dad retired in 1987 and left Cardstone then.

The love child of Bob Geldof and Janet Street Porter,love the bike!

If you think that, than the need to do the Oxley highway over Walcha Mountain in NSW, it has over 300 corners in 130km.

Cool Beard

Awesome to see a Mean Streak, I love mine, it's an absolute beast!

Thanks for the video… nicely done… the bike did come with ABS as an option. I have one - black just like the one you are riding….

did u have to buy the adapter plate separately or does it come with it? and is it shad brand or another brand?

🤙first time seeing your first video. You had me chuckling. I've watched many of your vids. Missing. How all is well as can be.

How cool would it be hooking 2 or 3 up together and have them all charge a larger power supply, I would love to have a few mates with 1 each and set them all up to the same supply!

Love your enthusiasm. A real world bike with useable power. Ride safe mate.

Once you're cruising around at 80kph you should be shifting into 6th. That will stop the vibration in the handlebars

Love yea

Townsville??wtf

Oopppps for the love of GOD, leave it stock, she'll love you longer, long time

Dude bad ass, I seen them in the Philippines, great bike USA u been robbed,

It's a scooter.😀So funny where your knees reach on that little bike.

I got diagnosed with MS almost a year ago and I’m 32. I’ve been wanting to get my first street bike and this video has made me want it even more. Life has changed drastically for me but I also have a brand new perspective on my life and how precious living really is. I hope you win this lifelong fight my friend. Stay strong!

Glad you made it to the gas station! I’ve had my share of low fuel anxiety too, gps taking me to a gas station that was no longer in business. Had to turn back and head towards another town and creeped in just in time on my Concours. The joys of solo riding!!

Well done!

A Mean Streak will probably replace my VTX 1300.

I found a great little upgrade for my 06 Mean Streak, and think you'll really appreciate it. The foot pegs from a Vulcan 750 will fit right on it like they were made for it, and they have a rest that extends from the backside of them to put your heels on to prevent fatigue on the long rides. Good luck.🇺🇲 I enjoyed your style of reviewing so much, I've subscribed.

Good to hear from you. Welcome back.

Good to see you still around. I've been told that cane fires were no longer necessary, but that is obviously not the case.

Hey mate, you're in Townsville? I'm buying an immaculate super 4 in this weekend and bring it back to townsville.

Gotta love riding season... I guess it is cooling down for you now as it warms up for us making it better for all of us! :-)

Hell Yeah...... HARLEY DAVIDSON FOREVER!!!!

Kind of makes me think of John Turturros characters saying in Secret Window. " I will burn your life and every person in it like a cane field in a high wind"". Thanks for the upload, great video.

Mate, what's the issue, that you're being overtaken, that they're on Harley's, that nine bikers ride together or...? (I honestly don't get it and I do give you full permission to call me an idiot for not getting the obvious answer)

Yay your back watch out for them road warriors 😊

Top review😂😂👌👌👌

The legendary bike .

Dude, the fact that you can wring its neck and you STILL won't break the law is NOT a positive comment for the bike....LOL... And trust me, I love it too, it was my first bike...
