    Rest [Applause] Ball [Applause] Restall morning all we are out with our B and we’re test riding this this is the lxr first ride of the New Year lxr black rothman’s colors as I call it the black and gold and this one we’re doing a quick turnaround it’s already been prepped and pded before Christmas and

    We’re out test riding it for the customer this is going out in about 5 days time good fun under RB Bridge having a little bit of fun and we’re out on a test ride now if you’ve all seen the lxr test rid you can see how far

    This thing leans over on the side stand great one thing I’d like let motor do just lengthen that side stand a little bit for me and only has side stand on these six-speed box combined the braking system all your standards on the left horn indicator hazards pass light on the

    Left you’ve got your start button your light position now that is your driving lights just your position light middle one will give you the Halo eyes as you’ve seen before on the videos and then full lights on I always ride full lights on kill switch adjustable front brake

    Lever and it sounds really good as well great to see out these mirrors they’re like little butterfly uh antennas out the side quick check over the shoulder and we’re not going to go the other way because on the way down there is about a

    Foot of water and I had to go through 2 Mile and hour my feet are soaked I should have put me bik boots on I’ve got me uh army boots on that pey got for me but uh luckily it kept the water off they are waterproof but I’ve got wet shins and it’s

    Horrible and uh yeah I’m not going back that way again I would do it just for the fun of it but no not happening now we had heavy torrential rain oh God Almighty we had heavy torrential rain last night and the roads are all flooded

    Oh Jesus H Christ I’ve just seen what is in front of me oh fun fun fun fun fun uh right where do we find the lowest points uh I am not or shall I no I am not going to attempt to even try I don’t look that deep actually

    So I’m just going to go out oh s it let’s do it first gear Jesus Christ that is up to the bottom of my feet B wave oh wish I got an adventure bike oh yeah didn’t want to go that way the other way is is worse and as you can

    See the roads are very flooded this is going to be good cars coming the other way don’t you know RB is going to get splashed to Hell nice and steady feet up on the back of the pegs take your time RB drift through the puddles Jesus

    H yeah there was a lot of standing water this is going to be an interesting test ride today every single Road in Milton Kings is flooded and our village has about 4T of water down in the dip between the two Villages so luckily yesterday Mrs B on the way

    Home tried to come up on the normal A5 route where I go up the hill and back down the roundabout lights were out and she couldn’t get that way so she had to come dive back around the village and she got as far as the little

    Dip between the two Villages 4T of water farmers’s putting a post up do not enter 4T of water and she’s like I need to get home to uh the house and he was like I’ll tell you what love follow me opens the farm gate and he took her up the

    Farm track the gravel track up to the top of our village and open the other farm gate and let her into the top of the village he said I don’t do that for everybody Mel but there you go she went how do you know me he said I know your

    Husband he rides a bike doesn’t he yeah yeah I thought it was you and uh he opened the gates for us so thank you very much to my uh farmer mate Richard who let her through the village what a horrible morning it is right so I’m I’m even wetter now oh great

    Fun right we’re off he’s turning in there let’s get out on the bike oh please no more puddles this morning so doesn’t lxr go through water yes it does and all the people say water affects it no it don’t it’s rid it all right as long as you don’t go splashing

    Up the top of the engine into the top of the the plug cap you’re fine any bik will Coast through it’s when you start getting it the water in your intake system or over your plug cap that’s when you start getting the issues but but since they put the generation 2 wiring

    On these I’ve never had a problem with an alxr great fun the only thing that I do say to people that uh obviously keep an eye on them is the coolant level if you let the coolant go too low you will cook the engine and lots of problems lots of Road Works going

    On so around the roundabout we go wet tires take your time fresh tires very wet do not go cornering too hard on a fresh set of tires on wet roads that’s what I always say on new bike let your tires bed in for at least the first 50 mil get

    Some cook on the tires we’ll let the tires scuff up nicely and I am pottering around a nice steady 40 mph this morning taking my time and on that subject there’s me going down the uh the local uh A5 and which is where I am

    Going to go now we’re going to do a bit of jeel Carriage Way now and I tend to ride at 40 m hour on a dual carriageway position one which is here and uh we had someone actually comment on one of my videos who went well that

    Is very dangerous that you ride in position one you should be dominating the lane on a dual carriageway at 4045 no it shouldn’t be puts you more in danger being out here of a highspeed car coming up behind you and somebody’s in the outside Lane and he hasn’t got time

    Or overtake he’s going to slam you up the rear so I ride position one let them go around we said yes but they could could brush you really close and put you into the curve I’ve still got another 3ot of Road there where I can escape to the

    Inside and on the je carriageway there is a cycle track as well well you’re wrong well how long have you been riding well I did my CBT 2 years ago and my instructor told me never ride in position one yeah when you’re at four ball yeah but not when you’re test

    Riding a bike at 40 m an hour well you shouldn’t be riding at 40 m an hour really all bikes new bikes test ride 40 to 45 mph it says it on all the spec from all the manufacturers do not stress your engine in the first 500 mil until

    You get a service that is exactly what I do and uh I did refer him to a very good handbook called the motorcycle riders handbook very very good book if you haven’t got one go and read one because it is what the police motorcycle instructors right use it is also what I

    Am use and it is also what the Roser Riders use use and it’s called the motorcycle riders handbook you can find a copy of that it’s about 15 quid or something but it will tell you everything you need to do and it actually states on the motorcycle riders hburg position

    One um should be ridden in this position if you are slow moving or on the Jew carriageway or you can get better visibility on the road which is what you should be doing and you notice my head moves around like a nodding dog I’m always checking me mirrors and shoulder checking

    Everywhere and that is what the motorcycle riders handbook says position one because position two where I am now is where tires don’t go which is where all the crap drops and all the oil and all the crap from under cars and larries because the tires are in

    Positions one and three and we’ll get rid of everything position two is where all the the rubbish will be so would you ride position two where all the diesel spills and the petrol spills and the oil drips are absolutely not big bike I tend to write position three or position 1ish

    2ish just sitting out away from the curb so I say 1 and a half and I tend to watch my mirrors if something is coming in a little bit fast I can do that and Scoot to the inside and get out the way so totally wrong mate totally wrong read

    Your police motorcycle handbook and obviously it does say be aware that there will be obviously gravel and crap all in the curb yes I know that but if you read the road ahead and you’re doing your sevens and looking as far ahead as you can you are watching the road for

    Potholes bumps little bits in the road like that so I just moved out so you’re constantly watching the road there we go another one there just move the inside a little bit so that’s what you should be physically aware of what is around you white mini coming up

    The back end of you or a white car there there he is look so constantly watching the mirrors and constantly keeping an eye out for cars behind you shouldn’t be fixated on what is coming in from in front or from just over your mirrors left hand side slip lane coming in I’m

    Already on that left hand mirror quick shoulder check make sure there is nothing coming up the inside of me and another final check picks up the car to my left who is now realized he’s out of space and he’s ducking in behind me there and it is an Audi I believe and it

    Is there we go so that is what you should be doing physically aware of everything around you all the time so little tips that you can pick up but go and get yourself a copy of a motorcycle rider handbook very very good and I ride a lot of time um we did go

    Out with the rosper group quite a lot um obviously one of my friends is an I am instructor but I tend now to go out with Gary and pey as well now Gary is a met police seg Rider which is a special escort group in London that do the queen

    And all that he is a very very good motorcyclist and uh I ride for Pei as well now pey has done nearly every track in the UK very good track Rider but he is very very good riding his GS and so is Andy a lot of the guys that I ride

    With I have total faith in their riding so when we do pack rides we tend to go off and yep Hammer around now do I try and keep up with them uh no they normally call me Slow Coach because I ride my own ride if they disappear off

    And they a little bit too fast for me I am not going to try and keep up with that pack just for the sake of Keeping Up With The Pack and pushing myself out of side of my comfort zone you should be riding at 60 to 70% of your ability you

    Should never be riding literally ragged Edge Full Throttle all the time you should be riding within your capabilities taking your time and for the sake of an extra 2 minutes to get to your destination is it really worth putting the foot down and uh getting there a little bit faster absolutely not

    You should be riding totally safe check the left lane even though the lights changed never know if everyone’s going to run a red light watching the Lorry behind me who has gone round the roundabout and I’ve got a van behind me tucked in back there over my shoulder so

    Keeping an eye on them so that’s what you should be doing physically aware of everything around you and keeping an eye on everything Hill Climb roundabouts working this morning so traffic lights are back on that is good and I wonder how bad the water is

    In our village at the top of the hill and normally the water runs down but there are loads of dips and dals and little uh tiny bits of road where the water water does come and obviously gather and get picked up it was flooding down this

    Hill last night it was literally like a river on the way home from work last night so much so that all the water was running down the road here into the Verge over there on the offside the cars were still bundling up here at 70 80 mph

    With a massive great water Trail across the road Aqua planing and I was like oh God accident waiting to happen take your time nice and steady through water puddles risk of aquip ploning on a bike obviously you’ve only got two tires so take your time if the roads are wet or

    There is a heavy layer of water on your road surface anyway enough of me blurbing on what has gone on this week we had a run to Super sausage last Sunday we got another one coming up this Sunday we are going back out to the bike

    Cath thank you very much to my camping people who sent me an O ex Taca or a Tacoma and said could you obviously you’re doing camping at Wild bad navr this year can you please do us a review on this and uh if you enjoy it please

    Keep the product I said well if I don’t enjoy it and I don’t want to use it do you want it back no no you you’re quite free to have it so I unboxed it last night it is a lot bigger than my jet boil and it looks quite a good bit of

    Kit but obviously they can’t send it with gas so I’ve got to go to go outdoors and buy a cylinder of gas because you’re not allowed to obviously ship gas in the post which I totally understand so we will get out and uh do a review on that Ox Tacoma in the next

    Uh couple of days over the top around the bottom hello Mrs B who is at home working from home today I would pop in and another a coffee but uh I’m out on a test ride we are quite a good bit of mileage in as well so cranking up the miles this

    Morning through the box six-speed box this box on these lxrs is really soft going up and down through the gears no issues at all it’s not a hard clunky gear box on these it’s lovely smooth and soft it does give you that sports bike feel once you have run the bike in you

    Can obviously open these up now these are good for about 65 66 mph but I always say City bike around about 55 60 it’s a 125 it’s not going to be a world breaking uh speed braing machine it’s a 125 at the end of the day

    If you want to go faster do your mod one mod 2 and do your big bike test and get a bigger bike but CBT laws are changing I believe in the next year or so which means you now have to do the theory to get your C VT

    License so you got to do the first part of the module now good good good good stops all these people just getting their CBT every couple of years and going I’ll just re reapply for me CBT no you can’t do that now you’ve got to go

    And do the uh the theory test now as well so good on them more money for the government nice steady 42 mph heading back to the garage my hands are freezing I need a cup of coffee and a one final test ride to come up on this

    Machine and it’s Friday so it’s live stream tonight we had a great live stream with pey on Wednesday went on for about an hour and a half that was very good mine went for 3 hours last week we’re normally only on for an hour but uh depending on who comes in the channel

    We tend to obviously finish when everyone else is ready to finish so it normally lasts an hour but we got some really good guests on again tonight so if you’re watching this on a rerun go and watch the Friday Night Live stream be aware that obviously Friday Night live streams are

    Adult content we do drop a few uh swey words being bikers all together so if that does offend you please do not watch a live streams but good fun to be had by all on a Friday Night Live stream this week is the early finish week we have changed the hours Monday to

    Saturday we finish early tomorrow which is good so 2:00 finished tomorrow means I can prep up the bike let’s get the visor up for a minute have a little bit of fresh air get to prep the bike up and we are out Sunday back to the super sausage for another little bike

    Run and that is bitingly cold this morning it’s about 2° today where is the spring and summer that we’ve been waiting for all it’s done is just rain rain rain rain rain all we’ve had is these Mega storms just proves that the uh the planet is absolutely screwed and the uh

    The climate has changed probably all due to the fact of these orange clad people sat in the middle of the road blocking up the roads and causing more damage to the environment yeah just stop oil and just have a look over there look that is the cricket pitch it is flooded absolutely

    Flooded not good it’s just water everywhere it’s about 4T of water over there and the river has probably burst its banks yes it has so yeah there we go River’s burst its banks not good electric charging Center’s quite empty one little van in there my favorite venue pink punters

    Great night to be had in there they got a great drum and base room do like a little bit of Chase and Status right down to 28 mph make sure we’re nice and steady through the camera head back to the garage and grab a cup of coffee so if

    You enjoyed the ride a little bit of a longer one me getting wet that was fun and there’s just standing water everywhere if you enjoyed it like share subscribe leave a comment we will catch you live stream Friday loads more test videos coming up it came Str

    There you have to watch that road as well cuz they Hammer across there and it’s been day today as well so much for these uh recycle uh bins at everybody I and it’s like no we haven’t got enough bins you going have to use black bags there we go more standing water

    1. Back around 24 years ago , one of my motorcycles was actually a 125 cc twist & rip auto scoot ,a Malaguti Maddison maxi styled Scoot which shared the Yam majesty engine . At the bottom of a local hill under a rail bridge was a flooded road , I decided to go for it & managed following a big bow wave to get through . A few weeks later the regulator / rectifier ,situated low in belly pan ,had corroded & burnt out causing my battery to go flat causing lights on dash to flicker & engine to just about make it to the dealer ,for a replacement regulator / rectifier to be fitted under warranty . Ever since then I have been wary about riding through any water deeper than 4 inches ,although my motorcycles have their regulator / regulators fitted higher than belly pan height . The bloke stating that you shouldn’t ride at 4O mph is obviously not living in the real world ,& I wouldn’t like to buy a used bike off him ,as the engine will have probably been ragged to hell during it’s vital few miles of run in period . All the best for new year 👍

    2. That water looks fun. Do you remeber the floods in the 90s? We had so much fun making bow waves as teenagers haha So much rain the water pressure was lifting manhole covers and flowing out like mini fountains. As for the people who criticize what you say about how you ride. I hope they actually take note of what you are saying. Who the heck are the instructors saying about dominating the lane? They could cause a serious accident telling people that. If the guy thinks that how to teach people he should not be teaching PERIOD! Some one that has only passed their CBT two years ago knows more then the manufacturers who make the bikes? I think that says it all really and will leave it there.

    3. When i did my cbt they said to never ride near the curb on a 60 road on a 50cc but i think its stupid riding near the curb [positoon one] is a bit more safer on a 50cc or for bikes what cant quite do 50mph yes u may get the odd person give u a inch of room but most people over take with a good amount of room and often say thanck you
