- Don't you just love glamming up your bike? Changing this and that. The original rear rack on my Voge 300 Rally is a good rack, but I wanted something a bit bigger, so I got one from Uncle Wangshop. Here is is my personal experience and opinion of the rack, and my dealing with the company.
A bit of tinkering usually does the trick....well done.....What a place to ride your bike ....its been pissing it down in sunny Yorkshire since January 😪😪
Thanks. Also thank you for saving my life. My sisters were trying to convince me to move back to Yorkshire. I got your comment just in time! 😂
I totally concur with your "I love living here". I moved in 2000 from Holland and not one second of regret.
Thanks for showing us the rack and going through all the trouble of communicating with Uncle Wang.
I guess I would have taken it to a local blacksmith and ask him to weld 2 pieces of pipe on.Ten euro max. But, maybe now I wont have to when I order it.
I am told I should get my 300 Rally today or tomorrow. Paperwork. We´ll see...It is Portugal, after all.🙂
While I am here, have you heard of the Eastbound moto winch? At 71 I am not as strong as I used to be. Tbh I did only order my bike after I was sure I could pick it up after dropping it. It is a well made piece of kit and once you figured out how it works it gets you up and riding again in 5 minutes. There´s some demo videos of it on yt. Maybe you already covered it, havent seen all your videos yet.
Cheers! We have some beautiful weather coming...
Thanks for your support. I wanted to let Uncle Wang know there was a problem and give them the chance to resolve it. Seems like the fair thing to do.
I have heard of that winch and watched a video about it. It seemed like a lot to carry and time consuming to use. When I noticed my body turning to flab, I went to the gym and had a year of strength training with a personal trainer. It was well worth it. Now I have my own routine at home.
Good luck with the new motorcycle, and hope you are able to enjoy it . Until it gets too darn hot. 😂
@@livelongrideonover70 Good for you ! getting in shape again. The winch indeed looks cumbersome in use, those guys needed to fill youtube time I guess...but actually after figuring out at home, the first time, how it fits together, and practising assembling it once or twice without a bike, you can leave the most "difficult" parts in place when not in use, and being back on ones way again is a matter of mere minutes. The 2 kilos extra weight and bulkyness is well worth it for me, even if just for peace of mind. I like to ride alone and where not everybody else is already.
And there are people who not are just lazy, like me, but have some disability.
@@gammaraygem I can see where it would have some applications and be useful. Bikes never fall in textbook fashion. I've had to drag mine out of a couple of tricky situations. 🥵
So why not just fit a plate??
I suppose I just like the look of that shiny silver one 😂
