- Out a Sunday run on the Classic 350 and trying out the new Touring Seat!
Despite the increase in height making yiu sit more on than in the bike i think this is going to get better and batter as the mikes get on it!
This just what the Classic is for, blatting down the the empty back roads, just you, the bike, the road. Made me smile.
Could not agree more!!! 😁👍👍
I like your TH-cam site very good well done....im getting a classic in march, would like the touring seat but i have short legs , do you think by elongating bolt holes the seat would seat lower, not keen on the lower royal enfield seat, what nice roads you ride on .
Hi i think you may well get the seat lower maybe a half inch at least least ovulating the seat holes, you may have hatched a great fix for folk wanting to achieve this! 😁👍👍👍
Cheers Bruce
Great video. Me? Just getting older, eating more sweets and growing my own touring seat.😊😊. What is your audio setup? When I video bike never sounds as good as yours.
Hi Mike, i use a Go Pro Hero 10 with a foam wind sock cover- there about £5-£10 on eBay and that makes a big difference reducing wind noise 👍👍👍
I really like these classic 350s, I've got an Interceptor myself here in Utah. If it weren't for the 80+mph highways that I'm surrounded by I'd totally grab one as a second bike. I know how dangerous those roads are if you aren't able to keep up. I drove a 1967 C20 Chevy with a 4.56:1 ratio rear from Ogden Utah to Bismarck North Dakota, I was able to keep about 60mph sustained which was very dangerous. I would watch people just come flying up on my backside and nearly clip me while trying to go around at the last second. I still have this chevy but now It's got a 3.73:1 ratio rear and can travel comfortably at 70-75mph
The 350 is ideal for our quieter country roads and it makes sense you having the interceptor for your faster roads! 😁👍
Cheers Bruce
@@Coastriderscotland the roads around my neighborhood here in the city are fast. 45-55mph in all directions. And it’s a relatively large city. I learned to ride last year and it was a trial by fire getting used to the speed.
Took a 350 classic out for a test ride a few weeks back, what a brilliant wee bike, very impressed. It will even do 70 mph if you ask it to! Would definitely have one a a second bike, or only bike for that matter!
Hi, great bikes if you don’t need to regularly use Motorways and if you enjoy country roads they really come into there own 😁👍
Cheers Bruce
Hi Bruce. Nice morning ride out .those royal enfield (all models) have really took off now sales wise. They get good reviews too
Ride safe mate old dave (Sunderland)
Hi Dave, thanks and yes RE have stile the show for value for money and fun!😁👍
Cheers Bruce
The touring seat for the Classic, looks so comfortable, but defo much taller in height. Will bed in nicely for ya.
My electric popped out in garage last evening, what a shitter, I got😮
So far the seats been nice on a couple of short rides Mark, deft taller though as you say
Hope garage leccy is ok 🧐👍
Is it just me? Or is a Barbour jacket just more comfortable for riding than a bike jacket?
Its just you and me… 😜😁👍👍
I like how the ribs on the seat match the tank pads. 👍 Be interesting to see how it performs on a long ride. I'm guessing just fine. - 1c and more snow here. Spring is getting closer 😃 Cheers 🥃
Hi Lance, seat is comfy on short rides so far!,
It’s 10 degrees c here today!, and 30 mph wind gusts! Very warm for January here!
First snowdrops are out which i a good sign!
Roll on springtime! 😁👍
Nice Sunday morning video Bruce. What mileage has your 350 done now?
Hi, not out far that much Dec and Jan so were still just under 11,000 miles,
Once the mornings are a bit lighter so safer for Roe Deer crossing i will be back commuting! 👍😁
Love the classic 350 very very tempted for one to go along the cb500x but now seen a suzuki gt250 ram air up for grabs and ive been swayed 😅 do like my classic stuff and not sure now what to do lol
Lol so much choice these days!, choose with your heart 😍😁👍👍👍
@@Coastriderscotland heart says both lol 😆 😂
A Nice morning's ride and the seat looks good and goes well with the rest of the bike too. Thanks for a great video.
Thanks Dez 😁I’m real happy with the touring seat after a short ride and think its going to be real comfy on longer rides! 👍😁
Cheers Bruce
The seat looks well on the bike Bruce, it looks proper comfortable, decent weather as well, nice ride 👌
Hi Mel, great to get out and no cold or rain!
30140mph gusts here now! 🤣🤣😁👍
Where did you get the tank top frame?
Hi these are available in black or chrome for £30 from Hitchcocks UK and have 4 sucker attachments to universally fit tanks 👍😁
Looks great, nice and chunkee 💪
Hi Glyn,think it will cone into its own thus summer on long trips away 😁👍👍
I fitted the same black RE single seat to my classic 350, it looked right and was very comfortable, it was the right choice, I have just bought a 2015 Bullet 500 UCE with the long seat, looked around for a single seat to replace it with but nothing as good as that seat available, so will stick with the long seat. Looked pretty cold up there this morning, I wanted to go out this morning but still plenty of salt on the road so will give it another week and hopefully it will wash off. Nice video, cheers Tim
Hi Tim, it was 9-10 C here this morning which is unseasonably warm! 😁👍
Cheers Bruce
That color🔥
👍👍👍😁
Looks good, and a comfy bottom is a happy bottom.
This should extend what is already a bike comfortable for 300+ mile days 😁👍👍
