    For the love of god, man, please do come back. Your style of storytelling and comedic timing is second to none

    Excellent!
    Balanced and unbiased comparisons are a great benefit to all riders.
    I will be happy to pay way over book price for that BW, I will go as high as $100...
    Now, if I could just find one.

      Thanks but I live in Alaska and we are extremely limited in what is available locally. Shipping a bike up from the lower 48 prices start at $1,800 (and that is exposed on a flatbed trailer, enclosed shipping is much more).
      I think Mr. Bigwheel has cornered the market up here... I keep watching. Maybe I could set up Mr. Bigwheel for a pink slip race? But what if he wins and takes my DR650 home????

    Hooray for the Big Wheel... Channel that is. Another great production. I went out to Moab and rented the WR250. I actually pinch flatted the front tire not far from that cliff looking down on the road into Moab. Came home and bought a KTM 350 EXC-F. Great to be back in the dirt.

  • @Thumpermad
    @Thumpermad Před 4 lety

    Excellent comparo but hey the big wheel did boil over it just boil over oil at the end there instead of coolant like the WR 😜👌😅😁 but what a fun machine the BW they were super popular back in the 70s highly underrated fun bikes . Thanks for sharing mate cheers from Sydney Australia

  • @SteveJayWiseman
    @SteveJayWiseman Před 7 lety

    As always a hilarious vid! its crazy you guys came here to my hometown of Moab, wish I could have meet up with you guys! Im a bigwheel fan myself owning two, a bw200 and a bw350. gotta say my new project will be pretty fun, atc250r with a missle engineering 2 wheel kit, i.e. bigwheel with suspension and a 250 2 stroke fire breather for its heart!

  • @apuetz19
    @apuetz19 Před 8 lety +1

    Great vid as per usual. Although its concerning that H6LLYW66D and I have the same choice in bikes, I can rest assured mine will ride better as I do meticulous maintenance on it! Keep up the great work.

    The swing arm on the BW 350 can be swapped with an ideler arm from a Sherman Tank to reduce weight.

  • @eyeprod3101
    @eyeprod3101 Před 4 lety

    That big wheel can rule the dunes if you know how to ride in dunes. I used to love riding one in Glamis, but always wished for less weight and more power. Reliable, but a pig.

    I love the Big Wheel and take that anyday over any other bike!
    But $75.00???? I'll buy your for that much and pay the shipping to PA.....LOL...:)
    p.s. I know that the $75.00 was a joke....:)
