[Applause] hey guys welcome to another video um motorcycle content Channel with no motorcycle content at the toughest time of year winter in the UK we’re in March now uh hopefully the the weather’s picking up and I’ll be able to get out on the bike today has been absolutely

Horrendous the first weekend in March first Saturday in March I wanted to get on the bike today I wanted to give it a good road test after the works it’s just had um and make sure I’m 100% happy with it I’m 99.9% happy with it I just want to be

100% but um sitting in the garage is doing nothing so I need to get out on it tomorrow is going to be a dry day hopefully doesn’t matter how cold it is as long as it’s not IC I’ll be out on the bike tomorrow and hopefully that’ll

Be content for next week for you guys to see um and obviously witness my enjoyment hopefully all the good times on the bike um in the last week I’ve bought um from Swansea Harley I’ve bought a locking fuel cap um obviously fantastic idea I can’t believe the bike

Doesn’t come with him in the first place I bought a bar locking mechanism uh for the bar which again from Swansea Harley they they’re fantastic online eBay I’m not an ebayer I I use Amazon for everything pretty much but eBay Swansea Harley are on eBay and they’re fantastic everything I’ve bought

From them has been with me within 36 hours I can’t believe it’s the third time I’ve used them now and um they’ve been fantastic they they you know the service is second to none um but yeah I’ve I’ll share the um the part numbers and the information for what I’ve just

Bought and obviously some some clips of of what they are is fantastic absolutely fantastic um something else guys obviously I wanted to talk to you about was obviously adverts on my channel it’s something that I’ve got no control over absolutely zero and I didn’t realize until last week that you guys were

Getting blasted with video with adver on my videos I didn’t know this it’s out of my control I thought that um YouTube would give you you know when I when I get to 1,000 subscribers naturally they ask me to then put on adverts when I want and this that and the other for

Revenue for myself I’m nowhere near a thousand I’m not even halfway there I don’t know why there’s adverts all over my channel it must be because it’s getting higher numbers now I’m guessing that’s what that’s what you know YouTube do to sort of make some money for themselves but again let me apologize

For that it’s out of my control I can’t do anything I don’t want to put ads on my channel in the first place let alone have them on there without even getting any revenue for myself um and also again the Channel’s growing and I love it I absolutely love it and I’m so

Pleased but I can’t believe the negativity I get sometimes in the feedback I mean believe it or not I’ve got a full-time job this isn’t my full-time job I love doing this I love doing everything about it I love doing the editing I love it it’s it’s the

First time I can be creative I’ve got I’ve got a job where I’m pretty creative or you know job satisfaction you know but um for me to do something like this every video I make I’m so proud of it whether it’s viewed or not I’m so proud

Of what I’ve achieved cuz I wasn’t excellent at school I I didn’t go to school hardly you know I just I didn’t do I was always a Hands-On sort of person and to be able to use a computer now where it weren that long ago I

Didn’t know how to turn one on so to be able to make videos now is something that I’m so proud of and also that it’s going to be around hopefully forever it’s going to be around for for family members and everybody else to to see and

To enjoy everyone all over the planet to enjoy but um yeah I just I I love doing it I don’t get paid for it I I I get a lot of negativity believe it or not I get a lot of negativity which um I try and hide it from the channel because I

Don’t want anyone else to see it or to come across it or I try and hold my tongue all the time I usually swear every every second word and I’m I’m trying my best on this uh on this camera to to stop you know being like that I

Want I want to be able to put content out there for you guys to enjoy it but not just for you to enjoy it but for everyone in the family to enjoy everyone to be able to watch if I let a loose word out every now and then I I’ll try

And cover it up it’s not what I want to be doing but um yeah the negativity I’ve been getting including sexual things and all this I I just don’t understand I’m I’m not joking i’ I’m confused by it and I’ve I’ve seen or I’ve heard a lot of

YouTubers say that the negativity that they get obviously these are Big YouTubers not me but the negativity they get does actually drive them away from to do it because for every 10 comments that you get a good you’ll get two or three bad ones and um again this isn’t

My full-time job I’m at work I’m painting cars I’m doing whatever and I get a ping on my phone I look at it and I think oh my God and I HDE it I don’t want anyone to see it I don’t want to be lowering the you know I just I don’t

Want to be a part of it and and if that’s you if you’re one of those people that are doing this I’m hiding you from the channel instantly I’m I’m taking you off so you won’t be able to do it again but it’s just why why are you doing and

It get a life you know let’s all move forward and enjoy things my video last week I put a comment u i put comment up I put a start screen up saying obviously what was going on uh about me not feeling myself or not being myself in the video and

It’s very true obviously I I had some news a couple of weeks ago about a family member of mine uh my younger sister who’s got um some problems some medical problems and um it turns out that these are problems she’s not going to be able to over come in the long term

She’s not going to be able to overcome it and uh after losing my mom as a child uh us all losing my mom as you know when we were when we were kids I’ve got two older brothers and a younger sister to know that my sister’s going to go

Through the same thing or you know 32 years later is going through the same thing I can’t I can’t bear it and uh I don’t want to upset myself I don’t want to you know but I just wanted you guys to know I’ve been I’ve been getting

A lot of personal phone calls and stuff from friends I’ve got a probably 50 subscri subcribers and my friends and uh people have been contacting me asking me what’s going on and um yeah I just not only that I’ve even had some some some random uh subscribers some people out

There who could sense you know what I’ve said and what’s going on and theyve messaged me to say are you okay and you know best of luck and everything’s good you know but um yeah I’m I’m fine personally yeah I could probably do with being a bit lighter a bit healthier but

Um it’s just shocking news to to hear and um I certainly don’t want any s ay from it cuz it’s not my battle it’s my sisters but guys I just wanted to let you know I’m trying to make this channel as good as I can and as and as honest as

I can and um yeah there’s a lot more to come and obviously weather permitting definitely tomorrow I’m going to get out in the bike and there’s a reason I bought this bike this bike there’s a reason I bought this bike is cuz you only live once and um my wife said to me

Obviously you know I didn’t even I didn’t even have a bike license a few years ago and my wife said to me that um if you want to get one I understand she said but she was worried she was worried about me about my health about me

Hurting myself on the bike or whatever and I get it and and that’s why I ride a bike like this now not a sports bike cuz I had a sports bike for a year and um let’s put it this way when I got it I

Was scared of it and when I got rid of it it was scared of me so um I don’t want to be that kind of Rider I want to be someone who enjoys it and um gets out to enjoy my weekends my Sundays my summer nights and um hopefully share it

With you guys and and go from there so let’s do this together let’s have it hopefully guys I’ll have some nice content for you coming soon and and especially obviously the trips I’m having this year I I’m going to go to the US my wife doesn’t know it yet but
