Hello,
Today, we are off to Devils Bridge in Cumbria on Scorpio, my Royal Enfield Guerrilla 450, prior to going to Barbon and Sedburgh (next video).
A chap coming off the motorway slip, almost took me out, but fortunately managed to stamp on the brakes in time…….he did worry me for a minute there though ! (off camera, I could see him accelerating, before hitting the brakes).
Whilst at Devils Bridge, I had a nice chat with a subscriber, called Darren. He recognised my voice, and watches my vids. It’s always quite humbling when this happens. Thanks Darren.
Hope you enjoy this short ride, the next one will be much longer.
Thanks for Watching

Nice run out ian . Have you considered getting a Ducati scrambler? 😂
I mentioned in another video that RE could remove the tft indicator lights and have the speed reading flashing when an indicator is on 😮
Morning Ian is It's always a nice ride up to the Bridge enjoyed the natter aswell 👍
Morning Ian, nice wee ride out, must admit I agree with you on the tyres, I have been quite surprised with the Ceat tyres for the power output of the bike’s they are fine, very predictable, no nasty surprises even in the wet and appear to be long lasting can’t really ask for anything else out of a tyre at that price, hope you’re having better weather than up here and can enjoy putting more miles on your new bike, all the best buddy 👍
Morning Ian, Jeezus those 🔔 ends that come flying up to junctions and brake late do my head in ! As for the Ducati vs Guerrilla, it's the Guerrilla anyday , on price and looks 👌,
Cheers Mel 🍻
I wouldn’t even consider a Ducati Scrambler, over-priced and for posers only! I did replace the CEAT tyres on my Classic 350, but only because a pothole took a chunk out of the rear! They gripped well in all conditions but I did find they gave quite a hard ride.
One of my favourite stops for a sausage barm and a cup of tea. Bit of a run from West Lancashire but the roads leading up to it are well worth it. Usually visit during the week because as you know Saturday and especially Sunday can be chaotic.
Nice ride out by the looks, lovely part of the country. Really enjoy following your rides.
Hello Ian. Another good video and it looks like you are enjoying the Guerrilla. I ordered my Guerrilla a few days ago. I put the Scram 411 on market place, but unfortunately got very little response. Therefore I decided to trade it in and as a consequence didn't order it from Crewe sadly. Due to the colour I chose, there's going to be a few weeks delay, before i get it!
Honestly didn't mean to offend. Prices were off auto trader bikes. I find it odd you don't like the scrambler when your bike is pretty much a copy of one, anyhow sorry to bother you. Love your vids by the way.😊
Hi Ian. i have not seen a Guerrilla in the flesh yet, Jim has some in but not in the colour i would choose, i like the one you have or the yellow. What is involved on the first service is it just an oil change or do the valves have to be set as well.
Cheers
Baz
I'm so torn about this bike. Don't know if I love it or hate it yet 😊
Nice ride out Ian and not to many miles until the fun begins Then the real enjoyment begins. Regarding the Ceat tyres i have no problem what so ever in the wet condtions we have in Wales on my 350 Hunter. Ok is a smaller bike but results are good. Ride safe until the next time. ps. I love your rants, Keep them coming. Bfn Mike ,Sunny Wales
Hiya Ian, I think it's fair to say you don't like Ducatis then!!🤣🤣🤔 – me neither! Thanks for the tip about the Speedo shield, can you tell me where you ordered it from again, didn't quite catch the name?🤔 Mine's now up to 1300 miles and I must say that hitting the 1000 mile mark has changed the bike again. It's much smoother in low speed traffic and less jerky on the throttle, I can only assume that any initial tightness particularly on the Piston has now ironed itself out and the difference is certainly noticeable, running like a dream otherwise. Keep up the good work mate, always enjoy your Vlogs.🙂👍
Hi Ian or should I say, Daddy Cool? I saw you strutting around in that little black denim number, the other day …….. suits you sir! 😁 Just so you know it's not personal, we've got our fair share of numpty car drivers down here in Somerset too, I can only imagine most of them have had their brains removed. By the way, I made a little mod to my throttle twist grip so it doesn't react to the slightest bump in the road. Just been out for an hour, on mine, to see how it feels and it's a thumbs up 👍 Will have a longer ride later this week and see how it feels then. Also, just fuelled up to the brim and done a manual mpg check ……. about 83 mpg but the dash readout, linked to 'Trip 1', is saying 95 mpg …… 83 mpg is ok though 😊 Still enjoying your Guerrilla videos and the ones with 'Clementine' too, of course 😉 Cheers, Phil (Somerset)
Hi ian my name is Chris I've ordered my guerrilla in smoke grey don't won't all the technology but want a sweet engine what jacket are you waring look warm
Another fantastic ride, my heart mssed a beat with that idiot on the roundabout, great scenery, keep up the good work Ian, look forward to the next ride, just goes to show you can have great fun even at running in speeds on the right roads.
Hi Ian , it was nice meeting you and I enjoyed the crack. Nice ride mate👍
Hi Ian, enjoyed your ride out as usual, i did notice the dash on the Guerrilla that i had a tedt ride on, had a white background it seemed quite clear to see, but it wasn't a bright sunny day, look forward to your next video on scorpio 👍
Great ride Ian; smart overtake on that Disco. Getting stuck behind cagers is a given on our over populated little island; it is what it is.
Ducati’s are not my cup of tea either; they tend to be way overpriced as is their dealer service charges; shame really. A motorcycle manufacturer and their dealers will charge what people are willing to pay.
Luv Devils Bridge; awesome chuck wagon. I used to like watching folk jump off of the bridge, seen it a few times back in the day.
Good run Ian he certainly was trying hard to stay ahead so it had to be done 😉 Scorpio is goin well .Have to say I tend to ride with my foot under the gear shift too which I guess is a bad habit 😁👌👍
I have ridden a Ducati Scrambler 400 and what I remember is that it had a very jerky on/off throttle and also the engine generated a huge amount of heat, which was the last thing I needed in hot and slow Bangkok traffic. Keep up the good work!
G'day Ian, good little ride, apart from the idiot coming off the slip road. Won't take too long until Scorpio's run in, then you'll be able to really have some fun! 👍
Nice ride out, looks like a nice area to ride in
