    Nice. Brings back memories of my 83 Royale. Best touring bike I ever owned, after 4 HD dressers since.

    What purty machine, from what I could see she looks pristine. I hate the bugs and with so much white on my bike if I go a few days without a cleaning she looks like she ran through a hoard of zombies! Robert Rob is a good dude, been watching him a while too. Ride safe, bro.

    Hi Shawn, Thanks for the shout out! I gained a couple subscribers. I've been having trouble with You Tube not showing comments. I don't know if it's them or my account I'm checking into it. I get email alerts but when I go to respond there not there. That Yamaha Venture sure rides smooth, looks like a nice alternative to the Harleys on a rainy day. We've had two days of rain & our first dusting of snow in the mountains to our East but the rest of the week is going to be good riding weather.

    Nice scenery, and the bike sounds great! I have been having problems with YT as well. I'll be looking forward to see how your chin mount is set up, that is how I'd like to have mine. Evening ride here in the summer sucks...bugs from the lake make it nearly impossible to enjoy the ride.

    Thanks StripBolt! I need to finish the edit on the 2nd half of that Mt Hood ride and get it uploaded... I'll do that soon.

    Thanks pati1974! I won't be stopping any time soon. The weather is going to an issue for the next few months, but I'll come up with stuff. I have hours and hours of footage that I need to go through, there's bound to be some useful stuff in it, I hope!
    Thanks for watching and commenting!

    This might have been asked before, but how are you mounting your GoPro to your helmet like that? It's mounted on the chin piece if I'm not mistaken? I've been enjoying your vlogs, stay safe!

  • @ShawnSmoak
    @ShawnSmoak  11 ปีที่แล้ว

    I'll try and do a video on the helmet setup today... The bugs are really bad in the late summer here too! Luckily, this time of year, they're all but gone.
    Thanks for watching and commenting Steve!

    It's not just you, I've had my comments not show on TH-cam also. I get the emails, but the comments will not show for the video when I'm logged in. Then hours later, everything is fine. It was doing it yesterday on this video...

    The brakes are pretty rubbish you say,any upgrade you would recommend,my 85 brakes are very poor.

  • @ShawnSmoak
    @ShawnSmoak  11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Yes, it's mounted to the chin. I need to do a video on my setup. I remember trying to find info when I first started and found it lacking...
    Thanks for watching, commenting and the kind words!

    I really want one of these older tourers.

    How tall are you, I'm 185 cm long. Is it okay if one is so long to run this bike.
    Thanks for a great video

    • @ShawnSmoak
      @ShawnSmoak  10 ปีที่แล้ว

      Janne Johansson - I'm only 177 cm, but 185 cm would probably fit the bike better... It's not a small bike. The footpegs and handlebars have a lot of adjustability to fit your style or size.
      Thanks for watching and commenting Janne!

    Having a dirty black bike just makes you look like a bad ass!
