Thank you...yeah it was!

Hi, nice to have you here. I am planning to make more videos very soon. I have lots to catch up on, but have been a little busy lately, but will be back to it very soon now.

I still have the cb500f...yes the front sprocket was fine, actually due to change the whole lot again very soon. But they have lasted very well, even with winter use, so i will probably get the same again.

Its in ardrossan. I will find the exact street name for you.

@warhobbit7951 its in glasgow lane...go from glasgow street, onto park lane, onto glasgow lane in ardrossan.

@@ScottishSaorsa thanks 🙏🏼 I’ll check it out sometime 😜👍🏼

Thank you. Hope you are all doing amazingly and enjoying the summer over the pond.

Thats the perfect road trip right there 👌🏻 i love tighnabruaich

I agree...we need more sunshine...wait till i find God and get him told 🤣 🙏🏻🌞

@@ScottishSaorsa 😂

Yeah summer is really playing games this year. But fingers crossed you get some good days.

Thank you... It was one of those good days 😁

There has been too much grey weather this year so far, it's nice to finally have it a little fairer again. But this vid was last summer, so it was actually a great summer compared to this one so far 🤣 Hope you are all well up yonder 🤞🏻

If only haha that would be luxury. 🤣

No, I still have my cb500f... Chris has a cb650r.

Correct, it's a cb650r.... The first is a cb500f

That's very true. My life began when I stopped caring as much, I still probably care about the most random strangers than most others do, but I have learnt to dull my empathetic soul enough that I am not so affected by the world and every one in its problems 🤣

We have began to think it will never be dry for a full 24 hours ever again... Amen hahaha.... Yeah fingers crossed for September for you then 🤞🏻

Oooh exciting... Fingers crossed for you... Just take it all easy and enjoy it and you should be fully fledged and ready to go. 🤞🏻🍀

Great road Sam👍

@@ScottishSaorsa yea will do thanks Mega excited now

Thanks... Hope the weather down your way is more summer like than up here. We were down at 4° last night, it's like early spring or late autumn 🤣 crazy.

@@ScottishSaorsa I don't mind it being shit weather, I can't ride at the moment for a while🤣🤣

I'm glad you found it a relaxing one... I loved that morning and was just glad I had turned the camera on.

Yeah, very rarely you get it quiet for sure

Me too, this was me heading home that day 🤣 sleep was beckoning but the sunrise shouted louder 😴🌅

@@ScottishSaorsa Night shifts? I hate them

@tojj29 nope, just sat in his all night watching movies 🤣🤣

@@ScottishSaorsa 🤣🤣🤣

No admiration required, I was actually just heading home to my bed and thought I should catch the sunrise down the harbour. 😂

It's showing 10 now but yes, my views often go down somehow, we have been keeping notes and they go up and back down... Not even possible eh. I watched you and your princess out on the black beauty too, lovely video and deserves more promotion by TH-cam. They seem to have something against Scottish vloggers... None do as well as they should. We used to search for them and thought there must only be one or two... Over time more cropped up that had been posting for years, yet never showed when we specifically searched for them. But yeah, I get more views on tiktok than on here, but it's not better as need more than on here to get where they promote you more (unless you pay them 😂😂)

​@@ScottishSaorsaIf you have other comments I can't see them, still only showing mine. Also I know you'll have commented on my video but I can't see it. Then they have the cheek to give you a monthly feedback telling you how to improve your channel and views 🤨

No, no more comments on here. And I don't know if I commented as I've been a little off colour lately. But I will go check and leave a comment. But views etc have been dreadful lately on my videos.

@@ScottishSaorsa Cheers Sammie I hope you feel better soon.

@michaellilley6725 thanks, yeah I just need to shake it off now, the fact that it seems to rain almost every day just now isn't helping 😂 the odd sunny day I've hardly made it anywhere and then rain again 😂 but what I did find, was that when I threw my back out (literally on the floor and couldn't move) when I could move again, being on the bike took it away entirely (with help of a kidney belt) so that was a bonus 🤣

@michaellilley6725 thank you. Im loving the leathers and the new lid is amazing compared to my old ls2...still love my ls2 for the design though, but the agv is posh compared 😂. Just need a helmet mount and intercom now though 🤔 always something else eh. Hope you are getting some of this better weather finally.

@@ScottishSaorsa I took Black Beauty out for a blast in the sun on Saturday and intended to treat myself to some biker scran. I stopped at the Tullybannocher restaurant as had a few other bikers. Guess what? They weren't serving food, just coffee and cake ( nearly 8 quid for a small slice of millionaires shortbread and a Latte 🤑😯😲) Still I had a good chat with the owner of a Honda CB1300 Super Four.

@michaellilley6725 wow that truly is shortbread for millionaires 😂 i love a good coffee and a nice millionaires shortbread, but ive never paid quite that much for them so far thankfully. Black beauty is such an amazing machine. That bike deserves some lovely sunny days to get out and play 👌🏻

@@ScottishSaorsa Before heading to out on the run I got Black Beauty a healthy nose bag, £20 for 11 litres of Maximum Horse power. Had I known the cost of the coffee and shortbread I wouldn't have had it, it was two in the afternoon and I really wanted some lunch. I ended up going to Macy D's on my return to Perth, not what I'd planned but it filled a hole 😋

@michaellilley6725 sounds like us the sunday we were looking for food in newton stewart....luckily found a chippy, but i really didnt want hot food that day ...wanted a simple sandwich but apparently not in newton stewart on a sunday 😂 ...fuel must be quite expensive on that beauty though.

It was a good day for sure. Mildly chilly as i was using heated gloves, but not bad at all. Love that road, its a great stretch to enjoy.

Yeah i do love that road on a fairly quiet sunny day 👌🏻

The south west is often overlooked, but the whole area down there is amazing for bikes. This day we were riding down to catch the glasgow slow riders ...we didnt want to join in, just wanted to catch them on cam and give them all a wave 😂 so more to come from the south in next vid or 2 maybe.

Sadly, she gave up after a year because of insurance prices. This was her first day after passing her cbt, and she did improve a lot. We hope she goes back to it again sometime 🤞🏻

Thank you. Yeah he captured the sound well for me that day.

@@ScottishSaorsa plus the weather was on your side It’s days like this I see and can’t wait to experience for myself

@warhobbit7951 absolutely, the days when you get endless dry roads are my favourite, but it can be fun enough on grey or even damp days too...just not so nice on camera 🤣

Its the first section they have closed, you can go in still and go a different route into inverkip, but its now local access only. You can access the longer road up the back of greenock 'old largs road' and end up where we did though. ...im currently listening to your bike roar through the mountains for the second time (watch as me earlier and now he is playing it on his account 😁 so im spoilt today)its fantastic .... those views are just amazing.

Not a re-upload, but may have done this road back on the ybr 👌🏻

@HippoDrones absolutely...thats why when he sold his bike...i bought the akra off him for mine 🤣 its actually meant for my year anyway but the guy who owned his one from new wanted it regardless 🤣

@@ScottishSaorsa sounds like destiny! 🙂

Loud pipes save lives 👍😊

I've loved owning the cb500f....its a really fun bike that does everything well but isn't too quick. The new hornet looks great too. I highly recommend them at least for a while.

@@ScottishSaorsa thanks 🙏🏼 I’ve been swaying towards the Triumph Speed 400 and Kawasaki Z500 But the Honda is blowing them all out the water for my liking 😝

Haha, yeah 🤣

@@ScottishSaorsa 😜 I’m looking forward to getting my bike big license this year and getting out on the road

Its brilliant having the full license, knowing you can then progress at your own pace with whichever bikes you fancy. The cb500f has been an excellent first bike for me. Its got just enough power to enjoy on the roads but not too much to get you in serious trouble. I keep thinking of upgrading and never quite manage it. Selling the 500 still feels wrong 🤣 good luck with your own journey. 🤞🏻

@@ScottishSaorsagot my bike license 🙌🏼 🥳 🎉 So I bought the Honda CB Hornet 750

Thats awesome...what a great choice. Enjoy it. Although i am pretty sure you will. And congratulations...its a great thing to be able to do.

Nah, not that time...i was riding to his place, the long way 🤣

@BlastOnWheels we are hopeful she will return to riding again, she was a natural so it would be a shame if she doesnt. I agree, the more new gen the merrier 👌🏻🤞🏻

@@ScottishSaorsa At least she gave it a try, as you said future will tell. Maybe you can change her mind by going on trips, and showing off the photos or footage :D (sort of "shame you weren't there", though I'm only joking). Looking forward to you future videos. Thanks.

@longriderxx 👌🏻

Night riding is definitely a different ballgame...I've gotten more used to it, but I'm still happier with a little daylight. Yeah, we never stop at largs carpark, well, actually we did once...I might still have a vid to make with that...we were out late again that time and the carpark was entirely deserted 🙃 Thanks for that, I wasn't very close to my dad since he was away down south, but still weird knowing he is gone now.

Awww thanks. I'm never sure if I am, but I was trying to be. 👌🏻

@@ScottishSaorsatbh I’m pretty new myself to riding I could have done with someone like you behind me giving me advice and a calm word. Dropped my bike 2 times in 5 mins never felt such a fool haha

@Stevefoster80 I started riding in 2020 so fairly new myself. In this video I had been passed my full test a little under 2 years, so it was easy to put myself in her place. Don't stress yourself over learning, just enjoy it and in no time it becomes natural and you wonder why you were so uncertain at first. Dropping the bike isn't great, but most learners do it, and every now and then so can seasoned riders. The main thing is that you're ok and keep learning from every situation, good or bad, until you start to feel like you've nailed it.

Thanks Tojj. Yeah it definitely helped to get out on the bike. I'm a pretty logical thinker, but even I have moments when it gets me in the emotions ...so it's nice to have a way to clear my head and think more straight again. 👌🏻

This was our first proper ride this year, I ride to and from his daily, and we've done some short or necessary rides,but this was the first "just because" ride. So it was nice to catch a sunset as well. 👌🏻 Hope you're getting better weather up there now, we have rarely had a day without at least a little rain for months now. 🙃

@@ScottishSaorsa The weather is much the same here, some days it starts off looking promising only to turn for the worse by lunchtime. The odd dry day we do get tends to be during the week when I'm working. The odd occasion when I have got out I've had audio issues with the wind. I've also been lazy to edit and upload on the Grey Wolf channel and seriously disappointed when I finally did. My last video was in absolutely stunning countryside up and down a historic Glen, yet for some reason doesn't seem to have been seen by many of my loyal subscribers. It's almost like I've been shadow banned, I have other footage I could put up, but the way I feel it's like " what's the point".

I often see great videos and yet views are low...it's soul destroying when it seems to be 'hidden' . I love watching scenic vids, so when I find a good one I always wonder why I had to search hard for it instead of it being quickly recommended. It took us ages of searches to find so many Scottish and British motovloggers even though we were searching for and watching them. We felt like there must be almost none then found new ones that had videos going back years. TH-cam clearly has a favouritism problem .
