A track day would be nice, with lap times .
I’ve been wondering when you were going to talk about all these bikes slowly reproducing in the background! 😂
"Slowly reproducing" 💀
Brother even didn’t tell us about him doing track days, has whole separate life we don’t know 😂❤
Missed Gareth on your channels Alex. Brings back old vibes of just the 2 of you rebuilding cars on car throttle.
On a driveway. Hug of successful engine start in the middle of the night
A budget bike battle with Alex, Gareth and the guys at 44teeth would be epic
A track day video would be nice with Alex, Gareth and Taylor!!
Meh, public road motovlogs are easier to watch and almost always more entertaining.
Disagree on Taylor, don’t think he’d be able to bring much to the party.
@@BeanzOnBread they dont owe you anything, mad how entitled people are. Not interested? Dont watch
@@BeanzOnBread do love how much I am under your skin, worthless mug 😘
@@OG-97 pipe down wee man. People are entitled to their opinion. This aint a left wing echo chamber so wind your neck in. They got so much wrong in this vid it can only be classed as poor content. For goodness sake they even claimed that the junk BWW s1000rr won BSB and WSBK. It done nothing of the sort, it got humilated by the yamahas and Ducatis even the zx10 beat it with an actual title. It was a fisher price race bike and these two made out that it conquered the world. Yeah they should stop trying to shoehorn BMW into motorbike racing history as they dont have any history in it. Gone to far with the blatant BMW fanboy baloney now so if you need a few reasons to why we feel the content is lacking then theres a few for you. And yes, we will stop watching and unsub if it doesnt get better, you dont need to tell us we dont need to watch pal. Wind yer narcissistic comments back and let people speak.
14:32 the look on his face is so priceless 😂😂😂
I'd love to see you ride those mopeds as far as they could go lol aim for Poland!
You have to do a road trip to Poland now lads😂 would love to see track content, road trips and any tinkering! Love motorbikes. Keep up the great work!
You mentioned the 748 not being ULEZ compliant, which is true. The fireblade isn’t either according to the system. But you can apply to Honda (for free) and get the CoC. My fireblade an ‘05 (but same as yours) is now compliant. Oh and mine is genuine repsol 😂 no red wheels for me!
The 748 is the most beautiful bike ever made, absolutely perfect
Finally more bike content!!!! I have been itching for this since the first cheap bike video…. Please finish that series even if it’s only on V2 I understand it might not do well on the main channel but more bike content is needed on CZcams 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Hi Alex, I don't recommend changing loads of parts on the Suzuki because it might get really expensive really quickly.
Gareth mentioned the secondary butterflies: there is a motor(which operates the secondary valves) which is sealed with rivets (needs to be drilled off). There are solder which sometimes crack and they loose contact.
It's really easy fix and I have done it on my friends K4 600. I really recommend to check it out first before touching anything else!
This is the usual Gixxer coil and plugs worn issues. They must not have been doing bikes for long if they dont realise this. Stick on coil and plug issue
@@TalksportWokistWomblesyes sir
@@TalksportWokistWombles I would check the resistance of the coils that they are in spec before changing anything
@@leba4651multimeter checks on coils only show up two possible faults of about 50 possible mate. All you can check for is resistance and continuity of coils with the multimeters lowest of the low current going through it. It in no way finds every duff coil. These era gixers are known for coils going on track bikes and it fries the insulators on the plugs as they go. Its not that its an unreliable bike, all bikes get duff coils when raced a lot especially Honda. Yamahas are the best as they use the outboard motor/jetski ones with the big dollop of epoxy at the top of the tube part. Ironically the cheapest & nastiest made coil packs fitted to any sportsbike in history are in that s1000rr junk heap.
Could also be the rectifier not working probably when hot.
Looking forward to the Poland BIKE TRIP, YES PLS....
what’s the poland joke
Nice chemistry here , too much crazy silliness detracts from the good content you usually create , keep up the informative light hearted tone it's amazing
So glad to see more bike content. You're the presenters we need in the automotive community. Absolutely brilliant.
Keep making brilliant content
I always love when you and Gareth get together, and I love it when you start to go on about motorcycles. Please can you make more content on it?
There is a youtuber that stuck a Ducati engine on a gocart. They amusingly called it the Ducarti
Enjoyed this. Worth watching just for the 748 startup, let alone the rest.
Been looking forward to this video! As many have said, the bikes always pop up in the regular videos so it's great to know a bit more about them. Definitely get some more bike content in there 🏍️
I've had too many crashes in the time of a year and a half....my 2 major ones is when a stationary range rover pulled out of standstill traffic and I smashed into him a 40mph (all I got was severe muscle damage to my legs and back but I'm walking ok) and then 4 months later I got t boned by a golf coming out a side road but luckily the motorcycle was repairable this time...I love my 2019 Honda Super Cub C125....and all without an airbag jacket, and there's no big deal about how far can you get on a moped... I went to Scotland from Rugby on my honda Super Cub c125
I Love the bike content so please please please keep it coming! Rebuilds , service and maintenance videos, cleaning and protection. And off course riding them!! That’s what I would like to see 😎
Gareth needs a channel. Would love to see build projects there!
Definitely love to see some motorbike track day videos, maybe on this channel. Great content as always guys 👌
Moped Adventure sounds amazing
digging the bike content, thanks
Sounds like your track bike needs new coil packs and spark plugs, also Alex unless you're super fast get semi slicks you'll be faster and keep heat in the tyres better, and when I mean fast I mean you need to be in fast group and be over taking everyone and only having racers go past you to use slicks. 7:37 Alex man those strips on the tyre are huge!!! Show us if you've gotten your knee down yet, hey if you want an instructor for a day I'll be more than happy to come along just pay for me and lend me a bike as I've sold it all 😂
Creditals: ex racer and was a motorcycle mechanic for a while
Modern slicks are basically the top end road race tyre with zero tread. My brigestone and Michelin slicks on my BSTs heat up as quick as any road tyre. Also of you are in the Intermediate/Fast group like i am you likely have warmers mate they are about £100 these days.
agree on it likely being coils & plugs but slicks arent like that anymore. My battleaxe like the guy above mentioned heat up as fast as the roadgoing BXs
Also Aled is an absolute weapon of a driver so imagine he has that push on two wheels.
@@TheWorldListens Hes terrible on track so he is. Guy on this vid seen him at malory park said he was 50 pencing every bend
@TalksportWokistWombles Do you mean with steering inputs?
If so... that's the way f1 drivers are taught to corner. Breaks the corner up.
Maisie is the true star of the Auto Alex channels; some Maisie featuring merch please so we can show our devotion 🙏
As a SC57 Fireblade owner myself, i love them for their insane reliabelity and the under seat exhaust 🥰 I ride mine to uni from time to time and its pretty comfy for its performance.
yeah ive had a few blades only ever needed coil packs. Yamaha are the most reliable though the R1s outlast everything unlike the junk s1000rr. Had two s1000rr back from 09 to 2012 and both were terrible constant electrical issues and the plastics all fade and break from the year mark. The last one untuned decided to roast piston 1 and take a tumble in the barrel. My mates S1000rrs all the same melted top ends and dropped valves. No idea why people buy them out of warranty as the engines are 30k miles at most between bangs. Chris Northwood the other day i seen his spanking new M1000rr fresh out the box dropped a valve racing Mat Watson😂 Junk bikes.
I love you boys and absolutely ADORE motorbikes (I own 14 including 3 Ducatis, 3 Triumphs, a Bimota SB6R, a Benelli 1130 TreK, KTM Superduke and the remainder mad/classic Japanese stuff..... I'm also a track instructor here in Ireland (Alex, the back tyre on that sweet Gixxer 750 is shocking..... come talk to me next time you're in Ireland!) and you may even notice one or two motorcycle review videos on my own channel...... I really, REALLY do have a problem! 🤣), BUT......... BMW has never done anything in BSB or WSBK. Yep, they do great on the roads (Hicky is BEYOND legendary status!), but nope, in the bigger arenas, they are very much just grid fillers. Sorry, but as a multiple Ducati owner (and funnily enough, also 3 Yamahas and a track Kwacker ZX6R!), I cannot let you get away with saying that about a bleeding Beemer! 🤣
Dudes not got a clue 😂 is he new to bikes? That gixxer is the usual coils and plugs issue and the s1000rr is a junk bike with no pedigree whatsoever. The only success it had was at IOM because BMW failed on circuit with its poor build quality they had to offer it as a cheap package at the IOM with loads of aftercare. He must be confused the boy, watching to many American vids about bikes they know nothing about. BMW have the least race pedigree of any of the main bike manufacturers and hes making out they are some amazing race bikes hahahaha
@@TalksportWokistWombles what was he on about BMW being dominant in BSB and WSBK? they havent won nothing hahaha. This bmw fanboydom is becoming ridiculous now. Just straight up lying about BMWs success (lack of in this case)
@@TalksportWokistWombleswhen i heard him say that the s1000rr was dominant i got embarrassed for him. The only thing s1000rr is dominant at is falling apart and breaking down. Has anyone ever seen or heard of an s1000rr doing 50k miles on one engine? meanwhile R1s do 100+kand get taken around the world on marathons. See the guy who took the first R1 around the world on a trip that time, he still has that bike and its at 150k miles on the original engine. Let that sink in while remembering s1000rr are lucky to do 30k
AG1 helped Alex concentrate - yeah, right :D
Definitely more bike stuff guys. Trackdays, road trips and rebuilds would be great!
More bike content please its amazing!
Yes please, road trips for days, gonna make fantastic content!
Definitely need to see alex and crew on a long road trip on bikes/scooters
It’s nice to see Gareth on the channel, love his work on project Zeus 🚗
Loving the camaraderie between the two of you. Definitely do the challenge of riding somewhere on the free mopeds. Whatever you do we’ll be here
Real keen on the moped video! Especially if they're 2 stroke mopeds 😁
I love bike content, Iv got 125 and a 250 and a 500 2 stroke ❤❤❤
500 2t is mental, I love it
what 500 mate? id have thought youd have told us what one
Please do a 748 video together!! That sound is *chefs kiss*
Yes! All the bike trips!!
Great to see you two back together. I want to take my triumph sprint st over to the continent in the summer. Where would you recommend going?
Love the bike content,seeing as u and Gareth both have s1000rr,how about a trip to their birth place in Munich,taking in a lap at the ring,the b500 through the Black Forest and of course a high speed run on the autobahn, the catch is you have to carry all ur kit on the bikes,big Pete can only be used for filming from not as a support vehicle
This means you’ve a lot of decisions to be made about what bringing with you do you really need tools etc etc
s1000r crap they will go through 3 engines on the way to Germany. No racing pedigree at all they never won no BSB or WSBK as was claimed in the vid. In UK the s1000rr is known as the most unreliable sports bike in history
Love the bike content, keep it coming ❤
I'm not a bike guy but I love the bike content. That Ducati is a work of art. I don't even ride and I still want one just to look at it. Not surprised to hear it doesn't like going slow. I've seen a few in traffic and they've all looked leery AF at low speeds!
We definitely need more bike vids, builds and of course a trip to Poland on the peds is a must 😂😂
Great to see more bikes!
If you want more bike content in the Midlands get in touch with Midlands Motorbikers and we will be more than happy to help!
And for crazy bike projects, The-Machine-Shop is the place to go 💪
I know this corner on Welsh Road near Southam, it's fun but very tricky :D
Love the bikes! Especially the ducati! Loved taking photos of both ducati's at Caffine and Machine 👌 would love to get some more !
Great to see some bike content 👍
get the ducati independently ULEZ tested, most bikes will actually go through the test. there are plenty of places doing them, and ive seen old 2 stroke bikes pass no problem
Gareth is amazing, need more of him, proper petrol nut!!
proper petrol nuts dont buy BMWs mate. Car or bike.
Great to see some bike content!!
:) nice bikes. The weather in the UK is usually quite shit but I'm impressed u guys still consider riding bikes. I'd love to see more!
Michelin tyres are the secret to survival here.
Love seeing Gareth in a video, need more Gareth content for sure 👍🏻
More bike related content please!! I want a bike so much but family and holidays take all my budget!
So once they’re sold I really want my bike license
Nice bikes!!
Would be really cool if you could do some content of starting off on bike track days. Ideally starting off from preparing the bike and kit you need personally. Then what it's like on an actual day on the track.
I bought an R6 for the track this year so would be really helpful!
Great watching your stuff and keep up the good content!
I was thinking exactly the same! Good plan !
Finally some bike content! Cheers lads!
A 748/916/996 ect has been top of my bucket list since the late 90s when I first really got seriously into bikes. I've owned quicker and newer stuff(a '17 RSV4 RF which was my daily even in the winter, was still comfier and easier going than the GSXR600 I had before that) but they still look and sound amazing.
YES Road trip please!!!
And can we have some track day footage please would be epic
Don’t know about everyone else but me personally I’d love to see some top gear style challenges on bikes and with like low / medium budget with challenges.
However I wouldn’t change Alex’s channel for the world as for me it has filled the hole that top gear left. Best of luck guys
Tell Gareth he should start his own channel dedicated to riding, but also builds or just general fixing. I watch The Bearded Mechanic here in the states and his content is fantastic. Would love to see something similar if Gareth was interested in doing something like that.
he hasnt got a clue though. He cant even figure out duff coils and he thinks s1000rr was a successful race bike🤣 it got tonked in bsb and wsbk for fun by Yamaha and Ducati
17:39 i had mine for 9 years. Did 30k miles on it. Have ohlins and quickshifter on it. It’s got a short front so your arms aren’t out, much easier for longer runs.
I'm not actually a bike person but being somewhat curious about them, this is quite interesting content and your trip to the Isle of Man was cool so yeah why not a roadtrip video with Alex and Gareth 😁
Good to see Gareth on the channel - a proper bloke.
The moped challenge sounds great. Take them over the Alps!
More Bikes please! Love this content!
I did think ‘where did those bikes come from??’ Nice to see you your channel!
So happy to see bikes on the channel! I hate to admit that I agree with Rory though, the blade is the one for me. I hope we see more soon.
We need a video of you two teaching Taylor and Rory how to ride
Love the channel and even better with some bike content, road trips/track days/rebuilds all would be bloody brilliant! BTW live the 748 as well had a BIP and an R so miss the R should never have sold it 😢
I would be looking at crank position sensor as it’s had a tumble and probably had cases replaced at some point, ensure it has the right spacers fitted so the air gap is correct, seen this a few times with track bikes
its the usual coil & plug issue with them😂 they are known for doing exactly this when they go. They dont seem to know much about the bikes they buy. I mean they claimed s1000rr dominated bsb and wsb 😂 What the hell is that all about? junk s1000rr never dominated anything bar the MCN front page and the sales chart for about one summer back when it came out 😂 They need to get their facts straight
I know nothing about bikes but whatcing tow guys talking with such great passion is really something...
Alex mate, I had the same issue on my K2 GSXR which turned out to be the fuel pump... Worked perfectly with full power until warm then not throttle/power. Might be worth looking into to see if that helps your issue?
My first big bike was the new Trident 660, not particularly fast but certainly good fun, with very dynamic frame. I then got a MK3 MX5, sold the 660 and potter around on a Meteor 350 - fun? Not so much, fast? Nope! Cheap? Hell yes!
About time we hit a look at the bikes. More please!!
How far can you go on a free scooter??
I know the guys at Alf England and live a minute from them. Happy to drag my bike out for a video (newly passed biker).
Yes to more bike stuff 👍🏻
Gareth rocking the Amish beard, looking like Mose from The Office US
since the dawn of the 27th April 2023, I have been praying to the gods that Sir Alex 'Auto' Kersten will at some point release his £500 budget bike challenge, Part 2!
Really like the bike videos keep them coming!
Track days, a little tour or two and some small builds would be lovely. Also maybe try out some different styles of bike.
If you like The sound and vibration from the Ducati, you have to try a Buell xb12 (2007 modell has a perfect pitch👌)
I live in Devon UK, got myself a aprilia tuono v4r, Gen 3 zx10r, gen 2 zx12r, and a Triumph TT600! Love my bikes, I use them daily too lol. Your bikes definitely need a clean lol
He mentioned riding to Poland! It’s out there now, he’s gotta do it
Great video!!, would love more bike content 😃🏍️
So glad to see Gareth again, big hugs mate.
Nice selection of bikes, but BMW have never dominated wsbk and BSB. They first got a big reputation when Michael Dunlop was smashing it at iomtt.
yesh BMW bikes are unreliable junkers. I worked for mottorad from 09 till 2019 and was disgusted with the blatant engineering mistakes and poor build quality. BMW age worse than any other bike. No joke a 20yr old R1 will likely be in better physical and mechanical shape, well defo better mechanical shape as its not full of engineering disasters like s1000rr. No idea why any biker would buy a BMW bike out of warranty given their diabolical reputation for going bang
more people need to tell them to stop it with the BMW hyping. S1000rr was a crap race bike its a road bike nothing else. IOM proved this
As a biker who has been watching this channel since Alex left car throttle I’m so happy he is bringing more bike content threw to us
not really, not if hes coming out with false stuff like BMW dominating any sort of racing. BMW have NEVER dominated any BSB or WSB and ive no idea where they got that from 😂 S1000rr is a junk bike.
Thank you 🙏 some bike content at last 😊. Love your Ducati 748, GSXR is nice too, and Gareth's Honda is superb. BMW .....nah, you can leave that one out in the rain 🌧️😅
Hard to beat an almost Matrix Reloaded rumbly hammer cycle!
A questions for all the boys - what's your perspectives on cruiser and dual sport motorcycles? Would be brilliant to see a roadtrip or some green laning stuff with them.
any chance of seeing that VFR again :( i really liked that bike. Also Yes, we'd like to see more Bike content
Bikes bikes bikes !!!! Love the videos keep them coming what a collection 🤩
Some footage from your track days would be sweet ✌🏼
More bike stuff please!!
15:55 I can hear the chrome on the rockers just wearing away!
We absolutely need the 748s on a road trip. One of them sounds amazing, but TWO would be even better
Can't say personally that I'm a huge fan of sports bikes, I never got my licence to ride fast. I'm deffinetly more of a cruiser. My bike is a Royal Enfield Meteor 350 it sounds great and is just fantastic for commuting, and those sunday rides into the british countryside. However, having watched this, I am tempted into the sports catogary a little. I might do an experience day on a track bike and see if it's for me. Great video as always
I so want to see you take the bikes to poland! you have said it now
That Southam road is one of my faves.
I don’t think I’ve ever been 50 down it though 😉🤣
More bike stuff is always a bonus 🏍️
Love the bike content!
You guys need to pop over to France to the Mangy Course Race track!! That would be a good couple of days' worth of riding for you both and a good chance to give a review on speed, fuel, comfort etc and maybe set a challenge or 2. If my 2023 Royal-enfield super meteor 650 can do it you guys can as well. Ps mine did 210 miles to the tank riding between 70 and 90mph over there.
Hey Alex check on the stator and rectifier on the gsxr. my 06 has the same issue. if the bike gets extremely hot it will fry the wiring connectors. :) seems to be the only thing wrong with my gixxer though. been reliable everywhere else!
