Hi Faye, I use a piece of anti slip rubber mesh stuff under my tank bag to protect the paint and it works great. The rubber mesh leaves a slight mark which disappears when the bike is washed and polished. As for petrol range anxiety, there are quite a few small petrol containers available which could get you another 15 to 25 miles or so in emergencies.
Oh! I really like your "stikers" of your brand. That's awesome! Also, the wrapping makes a super nice touch! Yes, we do like textures as artists! Makes sure your suspensions are well adjusted for the added weight. I would be interested to know what you will be bringing on your tour. How many days are you leaving? (I don't remember... 😒) Love the painting! Ride safe!
Faye, we have just got back from a two week tour of France and my wife’s CB500x was getting on average 90 miles per gallon. I think you have the same engine in your bike so that may help with fuel anxiety !! Hope you both have a great trip and we look forward to your videos along the way 😁
Your bike looks great Faye. I was like you four weeks ago heading to France first time on my bike and my husband on his. Started packing and getting things ready weeks in advance 😅 I was excited and nervous, but it was absolutely brilliant and I am sure you have nothing to worry about and you will both have a great time. 👍
Think it was a couple years ago, we just missed each other... and this year it's no different. Leaving Switz on 5th for Calais. Will be in Sussex, Norfolk, York Ridings, Liverpool and Shrops. Then back via Dover and LaMoto (for3days). Total, about 3 weeks with no timetable... Fab being Retired, you 2 should try it sometime 😂!! Have a peaceful and relaxed week, only then will you remember all to be done/organised.
Hi Faye enjoyed your latest vlog with my feet up on Sat’ morning at our Van in Benllech. Another great painting. You are such a dynamo your positivity is infectious I am excited for both of you on the Tour! Ride safe, stay on the black bits 😂 😂D&M x 👍
Good pics.....maybe try and develop technique of blurring background slightly even when not in photo....gives impression of a bit of speed and makes the bike stand out more.
@@fayedorantinsley578 You inspire me to get the crayons out. Have a nose at 'Lionheart Machines'...bike artist and cigar smoker...goes beyond just commissions and does 'pure' art...'steam punk' art of bikes and animals. video...'Lionheart Automotive Artist (mostly motorcycles)' Good luck on the tour and the new career [ish]...and if it's not a Z900RS I'll eat my helmet.
👍😁👍 you can totally tell how nervous AND excited you are!!!! Mega happy for you guys thar shauns getting another bike and you'll be on TOUR AGAIN SOON!!!! 💯
Kwacker 900 methinks. Excited foru both. Exhaust sounds much nicer. Honda say 12L in fuel tank and approx 190 miles to empty. To my detriment I have run out of fuel abroad in France where the didn’t use to open on Sundays. Fill up at 100 miles in my opinion
Bikes looking cool there Faye. Thinking about it you forgot the wine rack for the bike so i think you're going to have to dump the luggage 😂😂😂❤ X good on you girl everything is working out for you both.. take care and stay safe x
Hi Faye how about a mural on the tank and possibly do it yourself as your art work is fantastic it maybe another string to your bow artistic wise, plus hope both enjoy the Tour. Gav 😊
Hi, does all that GoPro scaffolding on the front of your helmet not get on your nerves and weigh your helmet down ( neck ache ) all the best Enjoy and Ride safe guys 👍

Thanks I will give this a go and definitely get extra full container 😊
Logo is great but it may pay to also ad the TH-cam logo. That way people know were to look for Bikes and Brushes. Hope this helps.👍♥️🇦🇺

Not usually into carbon fibre unless it’s a fishing rod , but it actually looks good & suits that bike & batwing fairing looks cool . 👍
Yeah, it's not too bad, thanks. Personalised bikes can be a love or hate thing 🤔

Thank you 😊 it has been said a few times that I'm infectious, 😅 you have to be positive when life can get you down so easily 😀
Good pics.....maybe try and develop technique of blurring background slightly even when not in photo....gives impression of a bit of speed and makes the bike stand out more.
Yeah, I noticed other artists doing that . Do you paint ?

Painting a bike must be so difficult..so much detail. But..uv got it 😊
Landscapes where always my thing it's only since I've met Shaun I've started them ... although it is sort of helping me understand bikes
Have a great trip guys , Plenty of photos please
Thanks Bri 😊
All the best for your holidays guy's ×××××

To be fare I don't notice it anymore 😊 my lid is light, so all good
You'd be surprised it's quite light and don't notice after a while.
a1 plus faye
Are fay you tease I’m guessing it’s the z900rs
Definitely don’t want to see what you’re packing it seems wrong watching a lady pack on TH-cam ☺️
Haha it'd have to be me packing as if i left it to Shaun nothing would get done until an hour before we went 😅
