Yep, that's a 2 stroke engine... one day .... BOOOM!!

I think Inta guys might be out tonight, going down to Custom cafe. The next outing for me will be 9th at Canada heights. Then, not sure. Happy to meet up whenever. Thinking of changing my gearing to mental mode of 14/44. That'll be so much fun 😅

@@RG500_detectorist Been out on the 🍺 today day so not riding tonight. Work tomorrow and Silverstone Sunday. Is that next Friday custom cafe?

It was my sense of humour! Sorry! Sadly, the sensor on the speedo became loose causing an issue. As you'll see the speedo went crazy. Luckily I have a speedo on my phone, as a back up. I've ordered the new sensor and cable, £30 delivered.

Thanks so much! Just editing what was one of my best rides to date. Not sure whether the excitement will transfer to video, but hopefully. Epic ride to Wateringbury. Keep your eye out for it. ❤😍

@@RG500_detectorist Will do bud, who was with you?

@@RetroSuperbikes Just me. Don't need to wait around for anyone then, plus when I fall off, can crawl home without the embarrassment! 😂 Melted an old RD and a couple of other old boyz 🤣🤣🤣

Coming home tonight, thinking about going 14 front sprocket 😮😮😮😮 would be so mental 😊

@@RG500_detectorist What front is on it now?

Did you change the brake switch? هل غيرت مفتاح الفرامل؟

@@RG500_detectorist لم اخيره ولكن أحيانا يعود للعمل بمجرد إرطام العجلة بحفرة

@@oussamachokri28 Sounds more like a faulty sensor connection at a wheel, than this brake switch issue. يبدو الأمر أشبه باتصال مستشعر خاطئ على العجلة، أكثر من مشكلة مفتاح الفرامل.

😅😅😅 Not sure about this one 😉 th-cam.com/users/shorts0bQZZK_E9Zo?si=o8UfdYhFYBPZSpIK

Definitely some suspected harm on this one. I think the CBR's pride 😅😅 😉 th-cam.com/users/shortsEaLrAZLyqVw?si=KnJMP5Zfry-SKX4u

Can you solder them on?

Me too! Both great bikes, but for me, only one keeper 😉

@@JohnSmith-sj2dk surely the RD?

@ThomasDoubting5 Cheeky bugger lol, I had a black water cooled (rz350) with a nervous front end, and a white red water cooled (great bike, loved it) full fairing (rz350 fn)., but the RG was next level power/weight ratio and fun factor..

​@JohnSmith-sj2dk always dreamed of the fn version. I had the bikini faired 350ypvs, but back then, one with a full fairing was, in my mind, a proper race bike. Cracking bikes, but as you say the RG has that next level of 'oomph'. A standard RG is quite tame. This one at 110bhp is just right for power to fun ratio. ❤ thanks for watching. Hope it took you back, to great memories 👍

Yep, we were privileged to see those 3 race bikes started. Loved it. Proper, little event. I see there's another just up the road this weekend. National Motor Museum, Beaulieu

Thanks so much. So pleased to hear that you enjoyed watching. The ride there and back wasn't the best this year. A bit damp in places going down and some awful traffic coming back, but what a fantastic event. It made for a brilliant day.

Thanks so much for watching. So pleased that you enjoyed the epic bikes. Such an unexpected, privilege to hear these start up. To hear and even chat to Sammy was the cherry on the top. Belfast boy is a true legend ❤️ 😊

Thanks for watching. Lovely to see the Tuned RG400. ❤

So pleased to hear that you enjoyed the video. It was a great ride. All being well, we're off to Sammymiller.co.uk 2 stroke day tomorrow. Should be another awesome ride. Over 200 miles 😮 I'll post the new video when ready, but to give you an idea, I'll find last year's. Went on my own last year but this year, there should be a few of us 👍

2023 at Sammymiller.co.uk was awesome 👌 th-cam.com/video/AMDtZAjP5Ss/w-d-xo.htmlsi=LuHIPQBV3Rx6wB9I

Hi. It is truly amazing and bewildering just how much has been dropped. The odd field may not turn up much, but amazingly in most cases, I found any and every field will deliver some coins. I believe it is purely down to the 1000s of years that we've been occupying this land. Recently I have been detecting land near a very old Manor house. I found a gold Edward III quarter Noble coin (circa 1330-1376). Amazing! A few fields along, we found over 100 coins, mainly from the turn of the 19th century, but a few older. So to directly, answer your question, I don't think a market needs to have been held and I think in the case of these fields, it's just the population over the centuries. In the case of the 100 coins, yes maybe an annual event occurred. It is similar here, if you can detect, then get a field ploughed, then it's like a brand new field to detect, you're certain to find more. I always thought of the US and Australia were the places to find the buried "Gold" treasures, but actually the UK is packed with dropped items. You literally find at least one coin on ever outing. Thanks so much for watching and sharing your experiences. Happy hunting!!

Maybe check out my Facebook group. Go to photos and you'll see the 100s of coins and other amazing finds, since December 2023. facebook.com/groups/656190973168659/?ref=share

@@RG500_detectorist Thanks for the explanation about how those coins got in that feild ..still seems odd to me but 1000s of years with people walking around with coins it makes sense i guess ...Yes Id say you have the better metal detecting opportunity in Europe than we have in the USA.for sure and I'll check your Facebook ....

@@bri-hq4on I've heard that the invention of pockets in clothing wasn't until 1700s

Hi Vivienne. The Minelab Vanquish, I heard, is literally the same technology as the Equinox, but is much simpler to use. Personally, I'd go with that. Maybe join our group on Facebook, South East Detecting. We've got lots of members to ask, who use them.

The Vanquish has more features but I'd double check which one is waterproof. I think the Vanquish may not be.

Absolutely! I played with one of these in the twisties of Gloucestershire. A good friend and excellent rider. I was on my RG, but with everything original, except the engine and pipes. Totally ran circles around it, except for my lack of braking into the corners. With the Brembos now fitted, that would be sorted. I am yet to find a new bike that I would totally bow to, saying "Wow, that is quick". This is on the roads, not a track.

Thanks for confirming. So funny a guy at work who owns a CBR said it was an R1 🙄

You obviously don't know what a 2stroke 500 is

Guy at work said what he thought is was. Do you actually know? Sounds like you might 👍

Yep, nearly btoke off last week. Such crappy roads, my number plate fell off too!

He was trying, his bike clearly wasn't. Not everyone is an idiot like me, or has the confidence to ride as good as you ! 😉

@@RG500_detectorist 🤣

Everyone's a pro with a keyboard💭

Thinking typing fast is like riding fast ​@sumitd500

At the start he had no respect for the "Moped", now big respect, old but lively 👍

​@@RG500_detectorist"old but lively"🔥

@Zskilledfeam definitely... still smells good too!

Thanks for sharing your great story. Hope this video brought back lovely memories for you. 👍

Yes, that little RG won me over. Loved everything about it.

Love that little RG400. Really crisp off the throttle.

Thanks for sharing your knowledge. I think it needs setting up correctly. As not had too much success to date. Would be great to get to grips with it, so I could use it as a spare.

Yep, great fun... you might enjoy my latest ride out... certainly draws a crowd these days .. so different th-cam.com/video/XRlmcwDSyM4/w-d-xo.htmlsi=7BVpw0eA5x4ZJITj

Glad you're liking it. I have managed some good revs the last couple of weeks. Sound quality is improving, I think. Getting ready for my longest trip to Sammy Miller's 2 stroke day. Over 240 miles 👍 Should be an epic day, end of June. Fingers crossed that we get some Summer that weekend ❤❤

Thanks for watching. Hope you enjoyed the ring-a-tin-tin at 12,000 rpm ❤️ You might enjoy this one .... th-cam.com/video/EYnDQxQtGYg/w-d-xo.htmlsi=OGuKbZecMTbvfS8r

I clipped the microphone onto the number plate light, between the top pipes. Had to turn the audio gain right down, but managed to lose a lot of wind noise. Although ear splitting, it's much more like it. The thing is noisy!!

Love it mate!

Yes, funny there were a group of guys waiting 30 minutes or so, just to see it, hear it, smell it! ❤

Yeahh..i will also do that😂✌🏻

Thanks so much! So pleased that you enjoyed the video. I've got a really great ride to Sammy Miller's bike museum this month. I'll post when done!

can't wait to see it

@@AMIRUL1997 End of June....

Okay got it👍🏻

Thanks for watching. Great to hear you are enjoying the sound, full bore 👍

Thanks so much. Hope you enjoyed it. 👍

Glad you like it. Did you watch the end ? Some nice high revving stuff 👍
