Found your channel several years ago and it’s been an absolute blast enjoying your content while following this amazing journey you have put yourself on. You’ve had me and my Mrs. in right stitches at times, and all the while we’ve been cheering for your successes. Keep up the great work Chops you’re a good man👏
I can’t wait for the ZXR 750 H2 restoration, it was that bike that really captured my imagination when it came to race replicas. even by today’s standards it still looks stunning, the best looking petrol tank in the business.
I still have a sign from my Dad's garage where he restored and maintained so many bikes, nearly all British and many from rusty basket cases. Anyway, the sign says "a bike on the road is worth 2 in the shed". With such a glorious shed having 5 splendid bikes and 0 on the road deserves a very special sign all of your own .. . Chopsy, pull your finger out!! I have my 07 Hyper ready for the season, updates for touring and the odd track day, can't wait to see progress on yours and much cash spunked all over her. Onwards, Chopsy!!
Absolutely love your videos chopsy it's like a mate taking you round your garage I could listen to you for ages just talking bikes. It was great to meet and see you at the 44 teeth cinema show and great to see what a normal geeser you are.. right enough soppy chat 🤣😉👍
Impressive inventory of motorbikes - you are one up on me and maybe a more interesting mix 🤔. Currently in my garage: 2019 KTM 690 Enduro, 2020 Husqvarna FE350, 2020 Triumph Street Triple RS and recently a new Ducati DesertX. I must say your garage is top shelf - well done.
Great collection chopsy , plenty to do , look forward to the Ducati and the Kawasaki rebuilds .👍 that's what happens now you have the double garage !! More bikes 😀😀 you'll need a triple garage soon .😁 ps love that bike lifter .👍
Awesome channel chops one of my favourite, can’t believe how long you’ve owned some of these bikes gone so quick to when they first appeared on the channel. Keep up the good work
Hey mate. Can tell you’re a Pom with all the jazzed up blinged up race replicas. Here in NZ most people would be happy with a trusty DR 650, and if they were lucky a a Honda postie bike. Different spokes for different folks eh. 😊
@6:28 a little rattle can special turned into a full blown restomod! Don't beat yourself up to bad because it could of happened to anyone of us😂😂😂! The wife has permanently banned me from Facebook Marketplace but I still have PH😜
Love the enthusiasm for completing the H2. I thought my P model would take about 6 months, nearly 18 months later its nearly complete 😂. Love the channel.
Yes Sean Chops youre right the price of the Ninja H2 is going up and up and up ,im so glad i got my H2 when i did brand new in 2021 , i wont be selling the H2 any time soon …hope you will join us on the Ninja H2 meet this coming soon this season … keep up with the good work brother love your videos 💚
When you said that you would never sell the 690 SMC R, I'm completely convinced that these supermotos by KTM, Husqvarna and Gas Gas are probably one the best all around motorcycles to have. Now I'm planning to buy a 24' 701 SM and build that up to my preference and never, never sell it! Truly appreciated your build videos on yours!
Thanks for the update Chopsey (almost forgot how many you had), I saw the video of you dropping the H2 when you uploaded it, so gutting and annoying, but we've all done it.
Have been watching lots of your videos lately LCR, thanks for your content. Great collection you have there. Keep up the great videos. Best wishes & safe riding.
Congratulations 007. You have built a wonderful collection of very tasteful bikes, to ride, enjoy and admire. And just like your bikes, your sense of humour has only improved over the years, especially when it comes to your Hyper 😂
Totally not surprised to see you having five bikes. After all, the ideal number is n+1, n being the number you currently own. However, I was quite surprised to learn 2008 was 15 years ago :O Ride safe and keep up the good work!
As always another great video. Don't get me wrong, I do love your bike reviews but these videos just feel a little more personal. Like we are getting to know you and your bikes better 😉 So thank you very much for having us 'round to yours ' and sharing your fantastic machines with us. Can't wait to see the fleet all restored/ repaired and knowing you, probably looking better than when they first rolled out of the showroom 👍 Keep up the great work Chopsey All the best Russ
Hey Chops, Been a fan and a follower since around 2016 with your Tuono video, Which then made me buy one, And now upgraded to a 2021 last year. Enjoying all of your videos for many years now, keep up the good work, Also I Think I’m gonna be buying a 2023 KTM 690 SMC-R, So excited, wanted to purchase one a while back but was hoping on a TFT display Upgrade but it doesn’t look like it’s going to happen, But you know the way it goes the moment after I buy it They will upgrade the TFT lol Talk soon buddy loving the channel again.
Just you talking about the parts you've replaced plus all the other expense on the rebuild ect , my wallet is cringing in my pocket, I'm definitely no tight arse but ifs so easy to blow mony on upgrades, I've been riding just short of 50 years, all I can say, I admire your dedication to improve and preserve these machines ,
Loving the whole new garage.....and seeing the collection in their full glory. I'm NOT jealous in the slightest......Looking forward to the builds!! TTFN
Enjoyed this video even more than usual 👍 it has a ‘Harry’s Garage’ feel to it. Hopefully a more regular feature? Like the detailed info on each bike and your feelings and future plans on each.
fyi motocomposits is coming out with a carbon fiber swing arm cover(mine will be 1st one out) for the H2 and R&G has a swing arm slider that is really a rear axle slide for the H2
So so jealous of you garage and bikes. Look how far you've come. Congratulations buddy. From your CBR build to now. Incredible. I've watch and learnt alot from your vids. 🙏🏼 I'm looking at selling my s1000rr. Getting I 2009 road track bike, super naked and a 1999 classic for them special days. Just want to say a massive thank you for sharing your knowledge. 👍🏼🍻
Really looking forward to seeing your video on the SMCR thumb brake. Your KTM looks awesome, my 701 got plenty of mods after watching you videos, keep them coming👍👍
Dream Bikes👌! KTM 690 it is just so much fun, and so i bought it.Gxsr was second choice but i live on Finland so cant ride sportbikes alldays but KTM can go all weather and all🌨️🌤️⛈️☀️ season.♥️ Btw That H2 IS so hot!!!🔥🔥
Nice videos I had 4 bikes at one point what drove me crazy was the yearly service and MOTs . Found some never got ridden as put at end of row now down to two more manageable
Have you got a licence for all those weapons ? 😂. Looks like you’ve got a lot to do this season !. Nice collection of bikes . Look forward to to seeing your project’s developments. Great video, Chops .
Just started blogging. Wondered what you think about the speedo showing minor speeding? Should I cover it? Can they prosecute ? Let me know what you think of Dave XR motorcycles if you have time.
A nice gang of bikes. I bought a Moto-Composites Carbon kit for my ZX14 R but it does not fit well and it would not have been mocked up to check for fit at all as very little of it lines up. It is a big Dremel job with me having to hack pieces apart to make them fit. I am a Fitter, I have worked in auto manufacturing and I know how to make things get together but this does not work. Single piece items are probably ok, like on LRC's H2, but the kit on my bike has many different joining points making it complex but they were not tested. Just a word of warning.
After many years(auld git)biking ...this garage is not my now personal taste BUT how fanbloodytastic this collecshunnn is id wuda luurved this many bikes to drool over👍👍 do it while you can 😊now wheres my vstromhimalayanclassic 350...atb sir👌👌👌😂😂

Awesome! Thank you Dukie 👍
In love with the Gixxer 😍😍....
I can’t wait for the ZXR 750 H2 restoration, it was that bike that really captured my imagination when it came to race replicas. even by today’s standards it still looks stunning, the best looking petrol tank in the business.
Another corker Chopsy! Enjoyed that, pure enthusiasm and knowledge - love it!
Cheers Andy 🍻 hey maybe a future guest appearance?
The ZXR750 was my first brand new “big” bike. I absolutely loved it. Great video, thanks for the memories. 👍😎🇦🇺
That H2 is a beauty. The scuffs just show shes been out and about!
Very jealous of your Gixxer and ZX mind Chopsy. Beautiful collection of bikes
Great selection of bikes Lamb Chop. GSX-R is still my favourite.
I still have a sign from my Dad's garage where he restored and maintained so many bikes, nearly all British and many from rusty basket cases. Anyway, the sign says "a bike on the road is worth 2 in the shed". With such a glorious shed having 5 splendid bikes and 0 on the road deserves a very special sign all of your own .. .

Pretty nice selection of bikes there Paul! 👌
As long as the 690 stays i do too! Came for the smcr series and love how the bike ended up❤
Really like the KTM, cool to hear you say you wouldn't sell it, says a lot about it. As for the rest... Amazing, a real dream garage.
Beautiful bikes, well looked after 👍
Your videos are always a pleasure Chopsy 🙂 The most relatable vlogger in TH-cam land 👍
Wow, thank you 🙌👍
Really enjoyed that John and a superb selection of bikes. That GSXR though…..!😍
Thanks matey 👍
Fantastic! You turn everything you touch into motorcycle beauty. You are a great inspiration to us all.😊
Great collection chopsy , plenty to do , look forward to the Ducati and the Kawasaki rebuilds .👍 that's what happens now you have the double garage !! More bikes 😀😀 you'll need a triple garage soon .😁 ps love that bike lifter .👍

Great collection chops.. favs for me are h2, smcr, gsxr and Zxr can’t wait to see the vids on these ❤ 👍👍🤩🏅👏 roll on 2023
What a beautiful collection of bikes, you really take care of them too
Yea mate , it’s because you love motorbikes (greatest love of all) and you can have that many , variety is the spice of life.
Hey mate. Can tell you’re a Pom with all the jazzed up blinged up race replicas. Here in NZ most people would be happy with a trusty DR 650, and if they were lucky a a Honda postie bike. Different spokes for different folks eh. 😊
Cant wait for both project. Love those bikes

I’m eager to see the thumb brake kit. I’d like to install one on my bikes. They make a lot on sense IMO.
Whenever a new video of yours comes out' I know I'm in for a treat.....Thank-you
Thanks Rob 😁👍
You can buy some GB racing engine case covers for the Kawasaki H2? Great protection. Maybe polish the vandemon exhuast to save some money?
Loving the way you did up the garage own two bikes Gsxs 1000 2022 and CCM 604 2002 fun on back roads
Wow U had a zxr in your childhood .. respect man !
Keep up the great work chops! Love the channel. Can't wait for the ZXR restoration!
Lovely to see the Hypermotard - even if it is just the beak 😁 The garage is looking incredible too - your shutters (ooh err) are looking great!
What a great and varied selection of bikes. Can’t wait to see all the restoration work. 👌
Thanks Richard 👍

Always find your videos relaxing.. thanks for sharing.
Stunning collection ❤❤

Have been watching lots of your videos lately LCR, thanks for your content. Great collection you have there. Keep up the great videos. Best wishes & safe riding.
Thanks Shawn appreciated 🙏
The production Value has really shone throughout this video...Great job! 👏
Much appreciated!
Congratz on the garage, pretty awsome.
I got to say, that ZX7R is beautiful, got to love these 90's bikes.
Cheers from Portugal.
Couldn't agree more!
Many thanks for posting Chopsy - another quality video, and some great bikes.
Thanks Stephen 👍
Great to see our flooring still looking fresh 🔥👌🏻
Yeah still like the day you fitted it!! 🙌
Be good see those projects taking place, enjoy your garage vids. 👍
Congratulations 007. You have built a wonderful collection of very tasteful bikes, to ride, enjoy and admire. And just like your bikes, your sense of humour has only improved over the years, especially when it comes to your Hyper 😂
Thanks Bruce 😄👍
2023 is wheelie time for Chopsy Gixxer and SMCR can't wait for the action! 👍
Totally not surprised to see you having five bikes. After all, the ideal number is n+1, n being the number you currently own. However, I was quite surprised to learn 2008 was 15 years ago :O Ride safe and keep up the good work!
Your channel is the best thing on TH-cam - so excited for the upcoming garage time ❤
Wow, thank you! 👍😁
It’s a very nice collection of bikes mate.. And the garage/man cave is mint. I really need an adjustable work table in my life as well 😎
Good to hear you'll never sell the 69SMCR. I have the 701 SM and have the same attitude. It's just too much fun.
Love you chops. Peace brother.
Great video chops, garage looking ace. The blue of the GSXR always pops in your videos and gets me trawling eBay Suzuks afterwards 😅
Thanks buddy 😁👍
As always another great video. Don't get me wrong, I do love your bike reviews but these videos just feel a little more personal. Like we are getting to know you and your bikes better 😉 So thank you very much for having us 'round to yours ' and sharing your fantastic machines with us.
Can't wait to see the fleet all restored/ repaired and knowing you, probably looking better than when they first rolled out of the showroom 👍
Keep up the great work Chopsey
All the best
Russ
Appreciated Russ 👍
Hey Chops, Been a fan and a follower since around 2016 with your Tuono video, Which then made me buy one, And now upgraded to a 2021 last year. Enjoying all of your videos for many years now, keep up the good work, Also I Think I’m gonna be buying a 2023 KTM 690 SMC-R, So excited, wanted to purchase one a while back but was hoping on a TFT display Upgrade but it doesn’t look like it’s going to happen, But you know the way it goes the moment after I buy it They will upgrade the TFT lol
Talk soon buddy loving the channel again.
Thanks Scott 👍
All great bikes in there. Proper garage, properly stocked. Nice! 👍👌
Thanks 👍😁
Love your bikes especially the gsxr great video, always look forward to your vids 👍👍👍👍
Just you talking about the parts you've replaced plus all the other expense on the rebuild ect , my wallet is cringing in my pocket,
I'm definitely no tight arse but ifs so easy to blow mony on upgrades, I've been riding just short of 50 years, all I can say, I admire your dedication to improve and preserve these machines ,
So good to watch more than just bike reviews. Good work Chopsy.
I watched one of the first Hypermotard videos in the week, you said it would be done in about 2 months, that’s a 2 year old video!😂
Should have never sold Beastie loved that bike🏴👍
Great bike collection Mr chops
I'm sure you put the gel seat in your ktm to, or I could be wrong lol 😆
Great vid as always
All the best 👍
Thanks Michael, yes your right I did! Also loads of other stuff I missed on all of them 😄
Love your selection of bikes!
Can't wait for you to get started on the ZXR.
The garage looks amazing now. Very jealous 😁
I have severe garage envy! Great garage and video set-up.
Thanks! 👍
Both Kawasaki’s are gorgeous 😍
This makes me feel good cause i am at 4 bikes right now. Yes!
You deserve all the toys you can get John.
I always enjoy your videos and diversity is king. 👍
Thank you so much 👍
Loving the whole new garage.....and seeing the collection in their full glory. I'm NOT jealous in the slightest......Looking forward to the builds!! TTFN

Just want to say a massive thank you for sharing your knowledge. 👍🏼🍻
Thanks so much Gary 🙏
Great video chops!!!!!
What a garage! I could live in it. Out of these, I'd like the KTM.
Really looking forward to seeing your video on the SMCR thumb brake. Your KTM looks awesome, my 701 got plenty of mods after watching you videos, keep them coming👍👍
Lovely stuff Chopsy! I can't wait to see how the ZXR turns out.
The good old N+1 formula where N=the number of bikes you already own 😂😂
Alternatively expressed as S - 1. Where S is the number of bikes that will cause your partner to separate from you.
Whoooo the intro song is back ! Btw if your supermoto goes missing, I know nothing.
Nothing wrong with that mate I got 3 at the moment would end up with more but my miss says no
Dream Bikes👌! KTM 690 it is just so much fun, and so i bought it.Gxsr was second choice but i live on Finland so cant ride sportbikes alldays but KTM can go all weather and all🌨️🌤️⛈️☀️ season.♥️ Btw That H2 IS so hot!!!🔥🔥
Great collection, all unique with great mods... good vid as usual.....
Much appreciated
690 is my fave, but that might change when the Ducati is done. Nice bike collection.
Looking forward to the Ducati! I really enjoy your videos!
Welp, I am picking up my 2nd motorbike this week.....Fe501 supermoto'd up brand new! will compliment the hypermotard nicely!
Another great video John
Love your collection and have mild envy.
Just the 3 bikes here currently but you can never have too many right 👍
Nice videos I had 4 bikes at one point what drove me crazy was the yearly service and MOTs . Found some never got ridden as put at end of row now down to two more manageable
Yeah that's the downside
I like that talk a keeper on gisser 😅😅
Love it John! Great video! Can I ask what you do for a living?
5 bikes? Lightweight 🤣
Love the channel, no hype and always interesting.
Hello where is, that old Honda Fireblade you made look like a modern MotoGP ? A stratospheric beauty
Sold that a few years ago 👍
Nice on LC!
Has MAVIS gone awol 😯
Really nice stable , everyone a superb motorcycle.
Best regards Shaun.
Lucky boy Chopsie.
Have you got a licence for all those weapons ? 😂. Looks like you’ve got a lot to do this season !. Nice collection of bikes . Look forward to to seeing your project’s developments. Great video, Chops .
Need another Fireblade style build series!
Just started blogging. Wondered what you think about the speedo showing minor speeding? Should I cover it? Can they prosecute ? Let me know what you think of Dave XR motorcycles if you have time.
Need to be careful Dave, get another camera and point it back at yourself. Easier than bluring the speedo. 😉
A nice gang of bikes. I bought a Moto-Composites Carbon kit for my ZX14 R but it does not fit well and it would not have been mocked up to check for fit at all as very little of it lines up.

Great review keep them coming.👍
More power to you for your incredible perseverance. Surprised that H2 isn't in bubble wrap. All that carbon-fiber. Keep the Hypermotard an the Suzuki.
After many years(auld git)biking ...this garage is not my now personal taste BUT how fanbloodytastic this collecshunnn is id wuda luurved this many bikes to drool over👍👍 do it while you can 😊now wheres my vstromhimalayanclassic 350...atb sir👌👌👌😂😂
Good vlog. Bad luck on dropping your bike; I know how that feels.....'not good'!
