@@GlynOC Bugsy wisely chose to go upstairs for a sleep….

@@billyking722 I often argue with inanimate objects….

@@billyking722 where’s the fun in that? Much more fun playing it by ear!

Fingers crossed!

@@martintraffordmoorlandbike7121 I’m going to teach my wife to fly this eventually!

She'll probably make a good pilot! What d'you think of the new star of my channel then?

@@martintraffordmoorlandbike7121 Chloe is lovely!

Aye, she's a right little diva though Steven! 😅

@@5dTraveller Thanks for highlighting the Fly more pack, I did indeed buy this pack, I just wanted to test it off the app first. You are correct in that you will get far more functionality from Neo when you use a controller. I also own a DJI Mini 4K drone, but I wanted to practice on the Neo first, before I risk the more expensive drone. I certainly think the Neo is making drone use much more accessible to beginners and represents a big step forward. PS, I paid for it out of my own money and contrary to rumours I am definitely not a professional reviewer…. 😂

@@TheNorfolkThunderbolt You're sorted then, sorry for butting in 😊 I'm tempted myself, maybe for Christmas, so I'll be watching how you get on 👍 Much more fun watching a confused old bloke than a 'paid reviewer' 😄

@@5dTraveller it’s certainly guaranteed fun! Unfortunately once I’ve mastered it I then have to teach two other confused old guys and my wife how to operate it too! I think you will enjoy owning one as it’s not only accessible but almost indestructible too (except if you ditch it in the drink)

Evening Steven 😊 this is the second drone video tonight, Ian Hughes, and now you 😀 can't wait to see what you get up to with them 😊

@@Ainsworth-RiderI didn’t upload to TH-cam though 😉

@@theadventuresofbellatheenf4627 I will get it under control eventually! 😂

@@old-n-Goldie yep, my wife is a demon of the dark arts of wool! I’ve just ordered the Neo drone, and I have a more expensive drone still in the box as I want to learn on an easier one first. Hope your leg is getting better! Cheers, Steve

@@ianhughesroyalenfield the light drones up to 250g don’t require a license, but you do have to register as a drone pilot and the way to do this is in the DJI FLY app. Not sure if required for Neo, but I’ll try to find out.

@@Timothy-ns4qn thank you for your kind words.

@@icedidi thank you! Coming from you, the praise is very much appreciated!

@@old-n-Goldie I should be well enough to ride soon so I’m really looking forward to riding my new CL500. I’m quite confident that the Beeline will be a great gizmo. I hope your leg is still mending well and hopefully soon you will be able to walk unassisted again.

@@tedcase9175 nice to hear from you! I hope you are well!

Good at the moment but you know things can can change once your 70, great to see you back in action again, just living the dream Regards Ted

@@5dTraveller yes, well satnav is not too difficult for me as I used to be a computer engineer! Can’t wait to get out on the new bikes! I hope you continue to get better.

@@TheNorfolkThunderbolt Just about fixed now thanks Steven, got out for a couple of rides last week.

@@ianhughesroyalenfield good morning and I hope you are all well up there! yes, it’s a clever little widget, and the mark 2 is even better!

@@TheNorfolkThunderboltI have a Beeline 2 coming today 😎

@@ianhughesroyalenfield excellent choice!

@@theadventuresofbellatheenf4627 thank you for watching!

@@thesilverfoxtravels6653 well, your video on the Beeline was most fortuitous for me as it answered all the questions I might have had about it, so thank you once again!

Evening Steven 😊 Jolly-good chat about satellite navigation, I use the Bee-line, which connects to Foxy mush simpler 😊😊😊 enjoyed the natter 👍

@@Ainsworth-Rider thank you for watching!

@@blearyview2254 I can’t wait to get out on them as soon as GP says it’s okay!

@@Lanes-Explorer5733 there will be a new RE project in the autumn! I’ve just been to the hospital and the doctor has given me some advice and new treatments, so back out and riding soon!

@@andypaddon8531 yes, he is a diamond geezer!

@@mikespeaks6038 welcome aboard! I hope to get some ride outs soon!

@@grays5112 yes, the CL500 is a very impressive machine! A lot of bang per buck!

@@kammelryder that’s the plan!

@@GlynOC yes, I will be interested to see if the fly screen does anything useful!

@@ianhughesroyalenfield thanks for the diet advice! I didn’t know about that. I’m still waiting for them doctors to follow up and tell me what I should do next!

@@Timothy-ns4qn indeed they do!

@@weemark67 Yes, the engine was what attracted me to the Honda!

Thanks!!

I’m pretty sure I will. Thank you for making the videos that you did on the CL500 they really helped me to decide what I wanted. It’s good when you can look at other peoples content on TH-cam and it can help you to decide what you want from the machine and also what the pros and cons are of a particular machine.

That's the plan!

Yes, thank you for your kind words. I’ve been really frustrated with not being able to get out on my new Honda. It’s fully automatic! I still have to steer it though! I’m just waiting for the results from the hospital now… I hope you are in better health than me!

@@TheNorfolkThunderbolt Yes I can well imagine your frustration, Steven. Regards my own health I recognise that I have to make the most of each day and never take my own life for granted. I have a good friend visiting for a few days from Saturday so it'll be good to catch up and then it's out on one of the Hunters exploring our wonderful country. I hope it won't be long before you're able to do the same. 👍

I’ve just got to wait for my results now….

I still miss camping though!

The flushing out is getting a bit old now…..

I'm sure, being flushed out or vacuum cleaned are both pretty unpleasant, thankfully I think I've avoided having my lungs vacuumed this time 😳

@@5dTraveller oh yes, I’d forgotten about that procedure! Very unpleasant, especially in the ICU

I'm with Mick on this one, Steven, having owned a Meteor and didn't get on with it in the long term. Mick (and Saddlebags) shows just how brilliant the 500 is.

@@Lanes-Explorer5733 I am starting to think the same way. There’s something about the 500 Bullet that just resonates…

Thanks again!

Thanks for calling me the other day, it really cheered me up!

@@TheNorfolkThunderbolt It was a pleasure I'm so glad I did can't beat a chat at our time of life 👍

Yes, I suspect that this is the case. I had not used this workshop before as it is relatively new to the area. Needless to say I won’t be using them again, and I will be taking up the issue with them. Normally the work would have been done in my own garage under my own steam, but as you know I haven’t been well and had to farm the job out. In future, if I am not well, the jobs will just have to wait as I now have zero confidence in any local workshop…

@@TheNorfolkThunderbolt I'll be upfront with you Steve & tell you that I work for Haywards of Cambridge, we generally discourage the odd customer who suggests fitting performance cams to modern Enfields as we genuinly don't think the juice is worth the squeeze. To be honest so far only a couple of customers have suggested it on 411 Himmy's, one of the possible reasons your bill was cheaper than expected could be becuase they didn't take the engine cover off to lock the crank ? This would have saved time & effort but is unacceptable if you supplied the neccesary tools to do the job, don't get me wrong Steve I'm not trying to stick the knife in but this is the main reason I work on my own bikes at home. I'm lucky enough to have a home workshop with a brace of Hydraulic bike ramps & my own engineering machinery for making those hard to find parts for my 1930's BSA's & other bikes.

@@gvinrad no offence taken. I do these little projects for my own amusement and also to see if they make any useful difference. This time was an unusual occurrence as I was not able to complete the sequence myself because of ill health. I originally fitted the free flow exhaust to my Meteor for purely aesthetic reasons as I already had the same fitted to my Bullet. Then I thought, what if I go the whole hog and see what happens if I fit all the goodies? Well, apparently the parts certainly work better if the damn workshop does the actual work you paid them to do! There are many tuning options that I certainly wouldn’t recommend, especially if you don’t have any experience of doing so. In this particular case, I checked with Hitchcock’s on each item used and quizzed them about each in turn. As for being “worth the squeeze”, that was not a factor in this case, as I wanted to see how well they performed together in concert. Anyway, it was a hobby project and it’s now done and dusted. I do agree that from the point of view of cost, it certainly isn’t a bargain, but it was never about that in this case.

@@TheNorfolkThunderbolt Are you attending the Wheels at Wells show tomorrow ? I'm riding over on my 1996 500 iron barrel bullet, the one I took to the outer Hebrides last year.

@@gvinrad I didn’t know about the show! I shall have to see if I can lure my wife into going there with the promise of fish and chips (this gambit usually works!).

Yes, I’m getting better Peter! I just started the B12 supplement pills and they seem to be working. I should be out and about on two wheels again soon. Meanwhile, I’ve acquired a drone and will be learning to fly it soon, and I just bought a satnav for the van so that Jaki will have a bit more confidence to drive us out a bit further. Hope you are well, we have been enjoying your rides out as the weather was still a bit frightful here, luckily summer seems to be here now after a bit of a false start.
