I would love a “planes need to chill out” episode 👀
Same
Wait until he sees the Merlin engine 👀
We need that also with their sounds
Problem is the current fastest plane, the USAF Aurora, is classified to the gills. So we don't have official numbers.
And a “boats need to chill out” episode
we want the "birds need to chill out" like you promised
Tell em bro.
Planes
Fucking pigeons shitting everywhere.
BUMP
Do you like the new slipknot seeing l song?
"do you think that planes need to chill out? let me know in the comments"
funnily enough, the SR71's top speed was limited by heat buildup/tolerance/dissipation, not it's maximum engine output, the thing was designed to cheat physics a bit and use the sonic boom it was making to precompress the air for it's engines, this got so much energy back out of what went into pushing the plane that it needed less power to push up against it's maximum flight speed than it needed to stay in the air at it's _minimum_ flight speed.
this also meant that both the sr71 and the somewhat faster and much less publicized plane it was based on could exceed their "max" speeds fairly easily, they'd just melt their nosecones if they kept it up for more than a few seconds and proceed to experience a critical structural failure and go from the tipping point of the metal in that spike and leading edge starting to denature to ripping themselves apart on their own shockwave and disintegrating so fast it might as well be an explosion.
damn I didn't know this, and it sounds absolutely nuts
Sr71 has an unclassified top speed, how fast it really went we won't know for a while, but the pilots will say off record that it's faster than what it's stated
I can easily fall asleep to other list channels, car review and general automotive CZcams... But not Mr. Pumphrey's videos. I'm on 110% energy every episode, and I thank you for keeping our spirits up in this crazy world.
"Do you know what hospitals were like in 1924? It was mostly saws!" That line was gold!
Which is actually true.
@@neeljavia2965 it is.
Oh, so that's what he meant. I thought he said "sauce". That confused me.
"ladies top underpants" fkn DED ☠️
James: "Motorcycles need to chill out! Really!"
Jeremiah: **smirks in the background** "We. Are. Speed."
We indeed are.
McQueen enters the chat 😏
@@jonlosito2004 Ah yes, Steve McQueen--motorcycles were his passion.
One of the best parts about living in NA is the fact that you can pull up a Facebook marketplace tab at 16 and buy a bike that'll click up to 280km/h for like, three grand. A buddy of mine got a 2003 Busa with 40,000kms on it and pristine fairings for that much. What a time to be alive, huh?
I learned a lot about motorcycles from this video. I never knew that the Japanese brand are limited to 186.4mph but that makes sense. I’ve heard people say it’s tough to hit 200mph without tuning/modding your bike. Would love to see more motorcycle content Donut 🤙🏼
Funny thing is you just pay 80 bucks and its unrestricted. They make it easy to bypass the limiters. The zx14 can do about 215~mph when derestricted.
It’s more so gearing that keeps people from hitting 200mph in bikes. Plus, risky asf. My R1 will it 180mph pretty quickly. You need a lot of room though to do these speeds too
Every time I get on my bike I remind myself of physics. Unlike a vehicle where you strap in to a 3-6k lb box that has pop out balloons when it comes in contact with something, on a bike your body continues until something stops it. Be careful out there
Unless you count the automatic seatbelts, my shit box is no different
Some idiot was racing around my residential neighbourhood on a very loud fast bike the other night; no leathers; no helmet; lots of revving up to the limiter etc. Probably stolen. I just thought " no helmet, no leathers, 200 mph bike, its dark and its wet and theres leaves on the road. This problem might just fix itself very quickly
@@throwback19841 that's what we call an organ donor.
I do the same! I cross a grated bridge, that causes my bike to get squirly. I always yell "Gyro scopic forces"!
I mean even in a car you're only really protected in a portion of accidents. Air bags wont stop a wrench left on someone's tailgate or a rebar/lumber torpedo going right through you - not to mention bits of the other vehicle(s) in the case of a collision
The laughing in the background makes the episode perfect
I'd be dying on that set!
Yeah James is a LEGEND
4:01 the camera crew's laugh when he says "that's a third Nolan" was priceless
Honestly I love going fast I have a 954rr and I can't imagine doing almost 100mph more than I've gone on it
Imagine being Kawasaki in 1989- you’re sitting pretty, all proud of your new speed king Tomcat, only for a bike from a piano company to beat you by a whole 7mph
To be fair, Kawasaki started out building ships. They still do today.
I really don't wanna be the one to tell you this... but except the name, current yamaha motors and the "mother company" yamaha have nothing left in common, btw all japanase makers started out building warships, like our german ones built tanks an planes and stuff
You mean 1988
Technically they started making organs...lol
@@redo1dr They have one thing in common. They both sound fucking awesome!
There should be a "James needs to chill out" episode, showcasing his time at Donut, and his acting career, and maybe even....... his papa
"James needs to chill out" by Nolan.
I'd watch that.
Pagani Racing would appruciate it
As someone who works at a motorcycle gear shop I can't imagine going 110mph in 1924...
I have a 209whp s1000rr and I also wonder how these bikes are legal, but I love that they are. I can casually hit 190mph on my way to school everyday and it’s not a big deal. We have some crazy engineering.
I would love a “James need to chill out” episode
Lol I literally was thinking the same thing and looked at the comments to say it. Old mate needs to chill the f out i had to keep turning the sound down 😂
16:23
no one needs to see that ..
I honestly wish it was more the vehicle and less a grown man acting younger than my toddler…
No such thing as too fast. Might to stay on the planet, but no such thing as too fast. Need, "No such thing as too fast" on a T-shirt.
13:36 "Same license that let's you buy a honda grom"
*Proceeds to show a picture of a 600cc stunt bike* 😂
I saw the same thing lmao
i have a feeling a lot of us caught this lol
Donut actually make ads watchable and informative on CZcams. Everyone else tries to down play the ads the have to do and makes me think they don't even deserve ad spots. Kudos donut!
My first bicycle was a 2001 zx1100...184 is the top I saw. Good "learning" experience for beginners.
Thank you for introducing "Power to Rate Weightio" to my vocabulary at 8:29. I plan to use it exclusively moving forward.
I can't say it without cracking up.

Bro, someone has to be the boomer. It actually says: "power to rate ratio" if you watch with CC
@@titusmihes9236 Well the translator is wrong

James is like the only car guy that gets pissed off when things get faster 🤣
High hp is fun, but i also like traction 🤣

My best friend (God rest his soul), his sisters then boyfriend (this was my high school years) had a Hayabusa that was what he called "Gangster Purple" and I was on the back of that thing going 160 MPH. He topped it out at nearly 200 MPH on the Interstate at one point. That thing was a BEAST.
I just watched this video and I do have throw this in there. I had a 2006 Suzuki GSXR 1000 and I got it up to 202 MPH on a local freeway here in Columbus OHIO. I wanted to go faster but I wasn’t wearing a helmet. I just got lucky cruising one day and had a long straight away with no one in front of me for mikes so I got on the gas. It was crazy.
Were you going off the bike's speedometer? If so, you were going slower than that. Most bike speedometers are very optimistic and the faster you go, the more inaccurate they become. If the speedo says 189mph, you're most likely doing 168-170. If you truly hit 202 MPH, that bike was not stock.
A helmet won't save you in a 202 mph crash
@@john4642 Agreed. I go by 15%. 202 I think would really be around 170. It's listed topping at 173 online. I hit 186 on my 01 zx6r.... Listed at 163. Lol.
Early 2000’sJapanese manufacturers, “let’s stop here. No more speed.”
Italian manufacturers, “ciao! Mo powa”

Mo powa, bambino!
And then, japanese manufacturers: POW, 400 km/h in a motorbike!
Can we get James some better magnets so my man doesn’t have to struggle so much labeling the monolist!! Keep up the great work donut love y’all!!
I'm convinced it's a running gag at this point.
How bout not using dry-erase markers too?! He keeps wiping off the mph, lol.
absolutely not! the shitty magnets is like 42.069% of the funny
The struggle is what makes it... REAL.
NOPE!!!! Its part of the charm. Back to you, James!! Btw...Diesel pickups are pretty rad. You prolly heard about'em?
I always liked how MV Agusta made the F4 R 312 go so fast. It makes a really good visual representation of how quickly their engines fail.
mv is decently reliable nowadays
@lunchtreyy I've been out of the industry for a bit under 2 years. Unless they completely fixed oil, electrical, and ABS system failures in that time I'm going with a hard doubt.
A lot of moddern bikes could go a lot faster,
because they are limited by the gear ratio of the last gear.
The RPMs simply get too high and either the motor doesn't generate peak power anymore or the rev limiter kicks in.
Many are just ecu locked, you can pay about 80usd to bypass and the the full speed. A few folks have their zx14 unlocked for around 215mph top end.
as an australian hearing 249 mph didnt sound amzing till i converted it into kmh and realised this is literally double the speed of the v8 super cars going around bathurst 1000. you legit have to be insane to ride a bike 400KMH!!!!!!!!!!!
its a piece of cake for isle of men tt riders
@@theMelvinShow no but they are driving bikes on normal asphalt country roads with speeds that goes way beyond 300 km/h lol, one tiny mistake and your dead
And that 273mph is 440km/h!

"A ladies top underpaints!" I think that was one of the funniest things I have heard in a long time. It really made me laugh out loud. LOL
I’ll forever be yelling “AND A PANCAKE FOR THE TABLE!” Thanks for that.
IMO more impressive than top speed is the acceleration and cost of these bikes. for $18k, you get 200hp, 9s quarter mile, and an engine that revs to 15k rpm
And (hopefully) won't break down after 3 pulls
@@bucalo8548 havnt seen one break yet, buddys gxsr,r1 and there ninja all made 10+ pulls and they rode them home 45 miles
these motor made to rev and be ran hard
@@codys2439 hell yeah, especially the R6! That girl just wants to scream!
@@bucalo8548 bikes are reliable as hell! You can put 100,000 hard miles on them if you do regular services and maintenance
18k buddy not all of us are stacking lol, for less than 5k if you look hard enough you can find a beat 1000 from the previous decade and absolutely gap 99.99% of cars you see in your area. Then you get speed wobble and die cause they didn't have steering stabilizers then but that's just part of the experience
I remember being in my almost/ early teens and watching my neighbors daughters boyfriend and his buddies ride over to pick her up on a bunch of crotch rockets. Ninjas, Gixxers, a Blackbird. I watched closer then than when she would tan topless. I swore I'd have one. My parents swore I wouldn't as long as I lived with them. I graduated, got a job, moved out and bought a brand new 2000 Hayabusa at 19 years old. I'd never rode anything on 2 wheels with an engine. The salesman said I'd be lucky to live through the first ride. Long story short. I did and I've still got the bike. I've had dozens of other bikes since but my kids will inherit the original blue and silver Busa. Any bike can kill you if you don't respect it.
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 I’m going to put this on a shirt

That's true, but most people tend to learn more quickly on smaller, cheaper, less powerful bikes because they can focus on all the other aspects of riding and aren't distracted by trying to control the power all the time. Most modern 300-400cc bikes are capable of +/-5 second 0-60 times and are powerful enough to handle passing maneuvers on American highways. I always advise people go start off on something slower; anyone who doesn't and is still alive is simply lucky.
Why can't people lie better than this
Unfortunately the masses only think riding a motorcycle is as dangerous as performing a high wire dance over a pool of hungry crocodiles.
I can’t get enough of these. Keep ‘em coming 🤣👍
There is a local pub near me which every week in the summer hosts a classic bike meet. All the old boys turn up riding through the narrow country lanes on bikes older than 100 years old, with suicide shifters, leather strap final drives (no chain) and solid frames. The get pissed (drunk as hell to our American friends) before riding home again. All of those bikes in that meet must be worth MILLIONS if all totalled up. Brilliant.
The only thing they actually limited was the speedo. In the EU they won't (and still) go any further then 299km/h. But the rev counter keeps on going.
That's not completely correct, some bikes are restricted to 300kmh what you sometimes see is the rev keep going because speedo wasn't correct. Also sometimes people just removed the limiter. Or the bike didn't come with restricted and ofc only shows 299kmh but it maybe only does 310kmh or so.
@@Xfacehack That is true although the new machinery seems to take the piss when some bikes go 299 and they are still in 5th gear accelerating, the S1000RR is the prime suspect here where the speedo goes no more but the bike definitely does ;) although a restrictor to 299kmh is pretty pointless ;) bikes are more about acceleration anyways so
@@ricac.h8717 i smell bullshit
I remember my dad's 86 GT Mustang was the same way. Speedometer only said 85 but the car could do well over that stock.
@@mateuszwojciechowski9622 I was gonna typ in that comment that the s1000rr is a prime example of bike shows 299kmh but goes to 300kmh gps. It's usually over 20kmh off

James and the editor are the absolute best duo in youtube history. This stuff is solid gold plated excellence.
Yeah whomever that editor is he needs a raise.
editor got too lazy to put a small text overlay that shows speeds that international audiences can understand tho xD
Except for a lot of that information was absolutely wrong . They need to do there homework.
The editor put wrong bikes for a lot of the video.
We hear ya! Just saw this video and we were just discussing. Great videos and we at MotoApes love this one !
Bruh. You’re literally gods gift to earth. I’m dying on the treadmill at the gym 😂 thank you for this.
I love hearing the giggles and suppressed laughter from behind the camera. The fun and friendship is what makes Donut so easy to watch. Great job.
This is my favorite Donut episode. Motorcycles DO NOT need to chill out though. 😆
They don't, but they do. They make you do bad things lol. I'm happy to never go over 85 in my prius, but on my CBR... I rarely go below that on the freeway

It's just the title they found that works best for D-List.
No, they don't. But their riders do. Especially when we're on public roads.
Great video, I didn't even mind the wrong pictures coming up for the bikes you were talking about😅 'Grom' was some 600cc stunt bike not a 125cc mini bike, and 'H2' was the h2sx touring variant with side cases, not the sports bike. Tbf the sx version and probably do 186 mph as well.
Cool Beans!
I have 2 of these bikes GSXR 1100 AND TomCat
I love how you can randomly hear the guys behind camera laughing 😂
As a German Driver who frequents the Nürburgring (hope to see James and others from Donut come here sometime) here in Germany during "Touristenfahrten" on the Weekends, which is the time anyone can come and race the Track no matter if it's a Vespa, a Lamborghini, a Wiesmann Roadster or a Semi-Truck, i'm always on edge when i see Motorcyclists at specific parts of the Racetrack, so hats off to those keeping their passion alive, even if they get into terrifying situations with Cars.
Also i gotta say I'm happy i found James and the Donut Team recemtly!
Love your Up to Speed episodes, especially on German Tuning Companies and Heritage like f.e.: RUF, which btw. is now still a family business and the 20-something Grand-Daughter Ruf is now running things together with her brother. Just figured you might like to know about that, always awesome when the children take over and are just as passionate.
Hope to see more videos like that, but also from others here in europe that deserve attention so much history and crazy stories to pick from. Would love to send you Guys some Suggestions and Information, Footage you'd probably have a hard time finding a lot of during research if you don't speak german, italian etc.
And if you're ever here, i'd definitely let you try out my Wiesmann MF5 GT and my 1988 Volkswagen Scirocco 16V GT Scala!

"WHYYYY!!???" lmfao this made the whole episode.
Ikr lol
Totally agree
this is great i feel like you should get bike guys and do wheelie media ahaha
Why is it so funny when Nolan says, "no, it doesn't actually smell like beans."?
Should have explained this in Km/h as the gentlemen's agreement's speed limit was limited to 299km/h. Bikes are technically still able to go above it. but the speedo meter will not go above 299
Exactly, most of them will hit 299 km/h in fifth gear:))

James: 😤
Plane is just a car for sky.
First of all, get James stronger magnets, second back the monolist with thicker steel, third can we get an honorable mention for the Y2K and even though it has four wheels the Dodge Tomahawk. The two mentioned obviously are very limited but they showed the capability of Mo Powah Baby in a small package, pun intended. The Y2K reached speeds of 250mph and the Tomahawk hit 298
Y2K is the MTT turbine with the helicopter engine... the tomahawk has never even been up to highway speed. Also aerodynamics say it would never actually hit 298... wouldnt get close
Pretty sure the Tomahawk has a theoretical top speed but has never been tested much past walking speed if that.
@@boduke9428 it has been up to 160 KMH but would be literally impossible for it to hit it’s claimed top speed of 400 KMH
Did the y2k actually do 250mph tho? I've never seen 1 move at much more than cruising speed...seems the fastest jet powered bike in the world didn't quite manage 240mph about 10 years after the last y2k came out 🤔
Strong magnets and thick steel aren't nearly as amusing as their alternatives. Also: #JustSayNo to run-on sentences.

“Faster, Faster, until the thrill of speed overcomes the fear of death.” ― Hunter S. Thompson
I love motorcycles. Have been riding for 21 years now. Been hit by 2 cars over that time on the street. I only ride the road course and dirt tracks now. Will continue to ride as much as I can because I can't get enough of that thrill.
I love that quote. I always found that when I'm riding, it's kind of like a peace. I can do 150mph on the highway, and there's no fear of death because I love what I'm doing.

Imagine if the editor would overlay the metric measurements. Wouldn't that be wild.
I watched the entire video making the convesion to metric myself like a fucking caveman.
You can tell by the crappy images of the bikes (example the H2 is the wrong model, that's the H2 SX and the absolute Ducati image they've chosen when there's millions of better ones on the internet) that they didn't put any effort into editing this. Why would they bother putting the measurements for the rest of the world

That would require a product of the American education system doing maths. We all know how that would turn out...
Consider just using the superior form of measurement?

Love planes and y’all should do one on jets !! As fast as you can find
I thought this was going to be some sort of hit piece when it popped up on my suggested vids. However, it turned out to be quite funny and entertaining. As a guy who has raced motorcycles for 2 decades, I’m actually very glad that ‘normal’ people haven’t the slightest idea how fast the bikes have gotten over the past decade. Any 2007+ liter bike will bust the 200 mph mark with an ecu flash and descent tune. Some, like the Panigale V4R, the ZX14R, the ‘Busa’, and the H2 will easily hit 220 or more.
In 15-20 seconds too, so many people get upset with me when I say bikes are better when it comes to raw performance. For $3,500 on Facebook marketplace you can find a piss missle that can’t be beat by most things you encounter on the street. Then some guy who spent that much on an exhaust for his c8 corvette gets upset with me for being a smarter person😂 ride safe brother

And its considered a somewhat slow beginner friendly bike. Recent bikes are insane and people not familiar with motorcycles have no clue just how insane they are.
Yup. Got my 2008 zx10r for $4.5k, 16k miles I love this little rocket lol
As long as gas exists, liter+ bikes will never go down in value, and will retire as legends.
People also don’t realize that they can get around a road course in blinding Speed too. They run sub 2:00 at thunder hill all the time - WITHOUT THE BYPASS!!
It’s crazy how there are still motorcycles designed that looks exactly like the 1924 yet cars went through like 10 phases lol.
I think if it wasn’t for crash safety laws in cars there certainly would be vintage style cars available new. They would probably be quite popular. Imagine vintage style cars built with modern manufacturing methods and using modern engineering and accessories. They would be the coolest cars on the road and wouldn’t cost any more than a regular modern car. We can only dream
@@KingOath I mean, most of the safety for impact is in the frame and design material.
The porblem is old design is not practical at all because car means practicality meanwhile we know Sport Motorcycle is purely hobby
@@Dominus_Potatus square edges are pretty bad for crash safety, imagine hitting a deer and shearing the legs off
That's because motorcycles are not large enough where aerodynamics are a problem. And also cars have to integrate safety features into the car
@@dr.science_0177 I assure you that aerodynamics are very much relevant to motorcycles, even at road speed not just on a salt flat. Just laying down in a tuck is enough to radically change what's going on with my unfaired Kawasaki.
I love these herz purtzes. Many of them
I maxed out a '99 Hayabusa when it first came out. I was working in Saudi Arabia at the time, amazing roads but I cringe thinking back, no gloves, jacket, just a helmet. I was really into fast bikes at the time but this ride put me off. I had seen a McLaren F1 crash at the time and an image of one of the wheels lying in a field kept coming to mind whenever I remembered going fast in the bike. I never rode super fast sportbikes after that, I settled on Buell which turned out to be much more enjoyable.
I still love that honda came out with the black bird and Suzuki said... "Idk what kills those things?"
Hayabusa is the fastest bird in the world (390kmh / 242mph)
Up Next: *Wagons need to chill out*
yes yes *YES*
my 650 HRSPRS wagon has zero fucking chill, mate. zero. I maybe would agree with you...
Love the little laugh that wasn’t edited out
Yesss! Good job on this one
In the early '90s there was a custom turbo-charged Ninja (ZX-11, I think) named "Mr. Turbo" that could hit well over 200. (220 if memory serves) The magazine article about it fueled my dreams for years and years. Who am I kidding? It still fuels my dreams.
That article was in Sport Rider magazine, they had a competition for builders (UFO), that zx-11 made 459.8 horsepower at the rear wheel. With that much power, chain torque drove the wheel so hard in to the ground the bike would bunny hop of the line. And yes the top speed was impressive but abbreviated because again the force from the chain was bending the frame and making the bike pull to one side. Terry Kizer a great motorcycle tuner
It's actually ridiculous how easy it is to be able to drive a fast bike in the U.S, if you wanna get a bike license for a 650cc+ bike in Europe, you need to be like 24
you just need to have 2+ years of bike licence, so 20y & its not a cc reglementation but a hp (for the 2 first year of licence)
That’s the responsible way to do things, although it makes peoples egos larger because they’ve waited to get a bike for so long, that’s why all the crazy road rage incidents are in Europe. I’m 17 and ride a 600cc super sport almost every day. I’m in high school and hit 155 mph on my way home from school. That being said I feel responsible enough to have that privilege, my friends who are also 17; one has a 500 hp cobra and a 200+ hp Ducati panigale 1199. The other friend has a 2016 yamaha R1s. I crashed a 500cc going 60 mph (100kph) that just taught me not to be stupid on the road. Now I can drag knee on backroads given good circumstances, it’s all about the rider. Ride safe everyone
@@mrfkyobitch6282 z1000 does 150 tops 👍🏼
@@lucasgarrett2107 I promise you, that 1199 is not 200hp - not even close. Even with a full exhaust and tune, you're looking around 185whp tops, probably less. Even a 1299 needs a full exhaust and tune to hit 200+whp (see Brentuning - the authority in Ducati tuning). So unless your firend has a purpose built race motor running MR12, he's well under 200hp.
@@mrfkyobitch6282 listen bud you can say what you want but since I'm a mechanic I know better. Hope you get a bike one day kid 👍😭
y'all, them not editing out the behind the scenes crew's laughs is literally the best
The Knick.
Really good show.👍👍👍
I can still remember seeing my first Ninja in person. It was at a flea market they made a show room in the rotunda. It was probably 1990. I was a kid just wondering around in circles all bug eyed, hearing things like "slicing through the air" and "fastest thing on land". what a great memory.
I'm a car guy but I don't think I'd ever experience a car that gives you the same connection and free feeling of riding a motorcycle. They are just way too fun to ride.
The best sports cars are the ones that come closest to the feeling of a motorcycle
A bike will never feel as controllable or balanced as a good car.
@@sunsinger970 lmao WHAT?! Have you ever ridden a high end sports bike?
@@sunsinger970 I doubt that you have ridden any bike ..
😂😂😂 love this guy ! Ur my favorite outta everyone
i would love to see a or many videos on factory race cars you can buy , like homologation specials but maybe newer ?
On behalf of motorcycles: No 😁
This, they are actually getting safer. Comparing my stone age MT-09 with the new gen, it's night and day. Save for some awful problem that needs a recall, it's some riders that need to chill out and check their egos at the door.
@@tarouyamada2686 i got a first gen mt09, thing is balls to the wall. Scared the shit out of me when I first rode it, but it's fun as hell
@@tarouyamada2686 agreed. Riders need to check their ego and also their surroundings and always assume that drivers don't see you
@@tarouyamada2686 and also I'm not going top speed. Imagine having a wobble during that
In the UK you can ride what ever you want... But you have to go through a graduated license system. Enough of no fear, teenage kids having liter bikes
Planes don't really need to chill out, they've been chilling out since the SR-71. Also, you did a very bad job of convincing me that I DON'T want the MTT; describing it as "A 420hp jet bike" just makes me want it and want it now.
i mean no offense but if u want ur body to be in the worse possible shape after crashing at 273 mph and having a -10% chance of surviving that then u my guy, u are worthy of having the mtt
Personally, I have gone 140 on an R6 on a track and anything over 120 gets pretty terrifying. I can't begin to fathom over 200.
@@scottflorek7171 I have an 2019 h2r and 2007 R1. What I used to think of as warp speed has become decaf
@@scottflorek7171 I made the smart decision to go 120 on my Daytona1200 on the interstate and while it was amazing, a single wobble would knock my lights out.

When I was a kid, my grandpa used to take me and my sister on motorcycle rides, and since I was the younger one (about 5) he placed me on the front and I experienced that feeling of flying while riding and I’ve been in love with motorcycles since 🏍 . However he always sat my sister behind him and she was just hanging in there, holding on to grandpa for dear life and she Absolutely HATES motorcycles 😂

James is so entertaining and his attitude is so sick ♥️
Have you seen his movie called Awful Nice
And then there’s Nolan 😶

An '84 VF750F was my first motorcycle at 17... and I was hoping to go look at the 1000R that was originally listed. Probably good I didn't get it!
You are a legend! 💯
I'm amazed how the design of the 1100XX aged well. That bike still looks GOOD
Huge Honda fan and I've always thought that bike is ugly as sin
@@fiddynutz68 well, taste is very relative and that's ok! It is a great bike nevertheless and if i think a mod and turning one into a scrambler or a cafe racer also would be cool
I agree. It still looks very good ..even better than some recent bikes if I may add
I personally think most 90s bikes had the best aesthetics
I have a ‘97 Bird, can confirm, they’re sexier than sin, and faster than hell
Correct me if Im wrong but that bike is hated by the community for it looks..
I got my first bike at 16 years old…I never knew anyone who rode bikes so I didn’t know how to ride. Got it home. walked it down the sidewalk and across the crosswalk to a church parking lot to learn, then proceeded to have about ten or so close calls in my first two days on public roads, then got it on the highway and discovered death wobble on my own😂
I've had my fair share of tank slappers and im only 24 dude 😅😁
My first tank slap made me realize the importance of a riding buddy😂
