You mentioned having to facetime with people to tutor them on the straps, and seemed surprised some folks didn't know how to use ratchet straps. How about a video on how to properly strap down bikes? Maybe show the difference in strapping for baggers, full fairing sport bikes and naked bikes.
Excellent idea!
I would definitly watch that. And they might even sell two more straps because of it. Or three.
Great idea
@@BikesandBeards seriously its needed.
Haven’t yet got a motorcycle but from my experience with mountain bikes as a kid a lot of people strap above the suspension which means when the vehicle goes over a bump the suspension bottoms out and damages the bike or breaks the suspension
Hey guys I'm Dylan , 26 from Columbia SC , and let me just say I freakin literally just started following you guys not even a full 24 hours yet lol , this is the first , ONE , and ONLY channel on the TUBE that I've ever subscribled to .. but man I raise my glass to everyone and everything that y'all DO , HAVE DONE , AND CURRENTLY DOING ... the other night I watched probably 30 videos or something like that lol , and man i support you guys and my advice is to you guys is to just keep pushing and just doin what y'all do ... I'm a local rider here , actually bought a 1984 YAMAHA YICS 750 , I've had it for a little over 2 months now and my third day of getting it , the starter went out on me and long story short , a few hours later and the twist of a couple wrenches , some blood , sweat , and tears lol .. replaced starter , totally rebuilt all four Carbs . But FYI , I've never worked on a bike a day in my life but I did because I'm a dedicated rider and am in love with the idea of 2 wheels and a rumbling engine that goes fast .. but besides all that .. I just wanted to pitch an idea that in no way shape or form have to benefit me at ALL so don't take this that way , so I'm gonna just get down to it straight up .. So , as I'm watching these vids I'm thinking to myself man it would be sick to do something a little outside the box .. like pull some of these forgotten bikes (HAVE TO RUN) OR (SIMPLE FIX ) that are just bottom of the barrel bikes as I call it and do like a Rat Rod style types of bikes . Because you guys know as well as myself not all bikes looks nice or have all of there components , but have to atleast run , so you get the idea .. and that might sound cheesy as hell idk but think about it , you could turn these things for next to nothing at all and so the idea is to get the attention of a different type of crowd , I think it would be cool as hell to do and no I'm not stealing the idea from Discoverys RAT RODS the show I'm just saying do something like it , now this is just a fantasy .. I haven't thought it all the way through as to everything that has to go along with it but definitely would get some more youtubers to scribe and man all things considered would just be fun and cool as hell .
Never saw guys in the motorcycle business who know so little about motorcycles, it really cracks me up.
Haha but I’m learning
The less you know the more you make.
W Hoggdoc ok gatekeeper. 🙄
It's a random comment on a random video of yours, but I just wanted to say thank you for inspiring me. It was mainly your channel and a few others that got me into motorcycling about 3 years ago. Keep it up!
12:50, that XSR900 in that blue color is gorgeous
I live in York PA it’s so weird seeing all the local places around my house in your videos. Keep up the awesome content!!!
Its funny from lancaster then went to york for a couple years and now in mount joy not far from his shop at all lol
2:37 Herbie the love bug drives by photo bombing in the background.
Harrison is holding the line for SRK cycles Sean is 1/4 back Tom Brady ..Caleb could be Rob Gronkowski or Julian Edelman.
What I’m trying to say you guys are a great 👍🏼 team !!
Pleasure to watch your videos if your into motorcycles 🏍
I/we know Sean owns SRK cycles but he would be lost or show be no go with/out Caleb and Harrison...great set up !!
Harley Davidson museum rocks !
Video gets better as the more you watch !👍🏼
Hey an XSR900, that's what I ride. They are super fun bikes!
Jason C. I’m selling my Suzuki savage 650 and upgrading to a 2012 XSR900 next week , so excited
@@samwamsley7049 2016 was the first year of the XSR, do you mean an FZ-09?
Jason C. Oh yeah my bad aren’t they pretty similar?
@@samwamsley7049 The mechanics are pretty much the same minus traction control and ABS.
@@samwamsley7049 Yeah they are almost the same bike. The XSR looks amazing ... The MT09 isn't bad though !
I love how Herbie just snuck on by in one of your shots
2:37 we gunna act like herby the love bug aint just drive by😂😂😂
That Yamaha XSR900 is so sweet. If only I could have a second bike, then third.....
i love how you guys are christian and inspire faith among other riders
5:43 I like the passages. Thank you!
Anybody: Does or says anything
Caleb: Laughs for no reason
He's Goofy ASF
Out of all those bikes, I see the Virago and think, “Man, that looks so cool!” I’ve always liked them. It goes well with my love of 80’s hair bands.
"You can't sell 'em if you don't have 'em." I work in sales myself - I know what you mean.
Man Ive watched several of your videos and you say you have a dealers license. well I have been a mechanic in bike shops for my entire life and Im 57YO I can tell you this for certain
! You my friend need a in shop mechanic BAD! No offence brother! but someone that knows how to do way more than change a fuel filter and drain carb bowls
Yeah we do
@@BikesandBeards It would certainly save you guys a lot of time and money over the year.
Hell yes they need to get in on the real money in bikes. They seem to be good guys so a dealer that will service old bikes would be cool especially a place that isnt hard to work with or scumbags.
Bikes and Beards
To keep it cheap for you, do it like beauty shops with a few minor changes.
In a lot of Beauty shops they rent out chairs to beauticians, and all work together with each beautician paying rent for their chair and to cover cost of person at cash register, etc. (as needed).
Create a space and provide certain tools, etc. and rent out the space to a mechanic who can hang their own sign, bring in other business for them, but your work takes precedence (since you have last minute work that needs to be prioritized to make timely sales)... there is a motorcycle mechanic somewhere willing to do this... (no, it isn’t me).
The problem with going into the repair business is that is a minimum of 3 employees because you need a parts guy, you are going to put a ton of money into tools and parts inventory, and you will be competing against your existing friend that takes good care of you from what I’ve seen.
I grew up in lower York. My dad and I both got our bikes from action motor sports. I live in Texas now but really cool to see that place again
Have you done a video on how to strap your bike to a trailer? Also maybe recommendations on ramps, trailer... overview of the Versa Haul and to what extent you can use it (bike weight)?
6:33 bromance like this can't be beat
Continued good luck with your business. It seems to be more and more substantial each year. Slow steady growth and experience. You present a good face when you fret over a bike the evening before a customer comes to buy a bike with only a few hundred dollars profit to you. Pulling all nighters and disclosing everything to the customer. Good Business. Making personal connections to your customers.
Me as a swede hearing him proununce svartpilen and vitpilen hurts
congrats on yalls business !
looks good.
awesome video !!
SEAN,YOU ARE A GOOD MAN, PERIOD! I say that without meeting you yet.
Oh how I would love to have that XSR 900, I absolutely love those bikes!!!!
Me too, comfortable and fast af.
I bought one because of the video he made with it. Check our my channel. I have a exhaust video of it
@@erickflores01 shoulda kept the 2018 fatboy
@@soulfly3438 if I could afford both I would have kept it!
I work in York. It's funny to see you guys going to the local dealers.
Really love this channel for the fact that they’re not a stealership everything they sell they make sure is 💯 and they don’t rip you off. How many companies are out there that would loose profit to make sure you have a safe trustworthy bike!
"Stealyoursh|t".. FTFY
But now that they are breaking bank with YT revenue they closed shop anyway
That Victory Hammer looks sweet.
I binge watch this channel. So awesome
Favourite vehicle channel. What I don’t understand is why don’t you use couriers. A friend of mine’s job is to drive vehicles bought at auction to customers. He drives one way then gets the train home. It wouldn’t be very interesting television for us the audience, but it may decrease the transport fees.
just found you guys, and low and behold you're in my home town.
I dont understandcyour business model. Why would someone buy from you when you just buy from a dealer which would require you to mark it up to make a profit? Love the channel, but could you help me understand the pricing? Do you get a huge discount from dealers and why cant you get bikes the same way as the dealers?
Tank straps are the best out there! Just got mine yesterday and already used them. If you haven’t picked a pair up, you’re missing out!
How are they better than a ratchet strap?
Super strong and endless
hey i have a question. why are they called tank straps? i've watched many of these videos and constantly hearing about the use of tank straps. they're obviously not used across the tank, or on a military tank for that matter.
Is all the bikes on your website all u have...or are all of them not listed?
A Husqvarna 250 was my second Motocross bike (the one with it's power band from start to end). Also got to race Honda 175, Maco 250, Bultaco 175, Ossa 125 ,Yamaha YZ125, and a Suzuki 185 ta name a couple. Oh and that Can-Am 250 1970-77 love 2 wheels, ANY two wheels. Husky's were great except for their MOTOPLAT!
The Husqvarna 701 is a beautiful bike, but the seat shape and clip on position made it extremely uncomfortable for me at 6'3. I wanted it badly but just could make it work for me. As far as the XSR900, is a fantastic version of the MT 09 but you could hear something was off. Hopefully they fix it up right for you.
Fun fact: buy a collectable vintage bike and when you go to sell it ten years later it will be worth what you paid or even more. Buy a new bike and in ten years it will be worth less.
Great tip
The thing about the V4... with good exhaust they sound like a NASCAR car... I will never understand how the Japanese figured out how to make an engine that sounds that good.
Japanese ingenuity-that's how🙂😀
I never knew how to use a ratchet strap ..trial and error u gotta be gentle feed it in ..gentle then crank the ratchet to tighten..great invention .
Ratchets are weird at first.
Pull the strap so the tail is as long as possible and then ratchet all of three to five times
Once you go ratchet you'll never use a rope again
I still can’t believe you closed the dealership. That looked like so much fun.
This is random but the editing is so good, lol ( pointing out the best hot chocolate.) HAHAHA
Caleb is the funniest dude ever. The perfect amount of awkwardness and sharpness
that joke at 2:31 was absolutely killer it was hilarious he should really be a comedian
What are your thoughts on 07 honda vt750 shadow aero i have never seen you buy or sell one and would like to know your opinion thanks
8:47 Oooooh, Caleb Caleb! (u gotta love this guy) ;)
I love hearing that Husqvarna dealer trying to pronounce Vitpilen and Svartpilen. (Fun fact: svart= black, vit= white, pilen= arrow).
Swedish follower!
Thank you for translating
Victory makes a great bike. I used to have a 2004 Vegas. I like how you put a Bible verse up during your videos. If I ever get back into riding I’m making the drive up to see you guys. Thanks for the video guys. God bless.
Awesome thanks
Bikes and Beards no problem. If you guys ever want to sell that little red Honda trail bike, you just picked up a couple of episodes ago, please let me know.
I work at a Yamaha deAlership up in Canada and we’ve got about 10 used bikes in good condition and about 2 dozen vintage Yamahas in various condition
I’m curious to hear your thoughts on the Hammer vs M109.
At 2:13 , the diner on the left is the absolute best diner I have ever been to, they have the best breakfast you will ever eat.
Sean, you guys have any of those green zip up jackets?? Would love to buy one!
Sean - your website shows 16 (?) bikes, but videos in your shop show wayyyy more. Would you put the list on the website? I'd potentially buy from you if I really knew what you had in stock.
wait. pull van and trailer in shop, to back bikes out into the parking lot?
Where’s your shop located? I’m interested in buying a bike again.
I would totally like to connect with you and do the same thing you are doing. I have been searching motorcycles for several months and have found that there are many bikes for sale within a 100 mile radius of where I live. The biggest issue I am finding in this area of Southern West Virginia is that all the dealerships are dealing mostly in atv's and UTV's. There is such a small market for motorcycles here but so many of them for sale. Please let me know how to get in touch with you and possibly discuss some options for getting into this business.
Would love to work for these guys or with them. I am certified motorsports mechanic and have been for 18 years. Atvs, side by sides,motorcycles, snowmobiles, jet skis.. all the fun toys lol. To bad they dont hire full time techs. Awesome videos
When you guys was looking at the red Honda St1100. Did I see Herbie the Love bug Drive pass ?
I'd like to buy that bike with the red wheels. Do you only do cash sales or do you work with a finance company?
I'm pretty sure trailer chains shouldn't be dragging on the ground or is that a myth?
15:00 That Virago
Man, I posted another comment that I deleted. Just something about your channel is making me remind myself of what it's like to be a decent human being. I'm not a jerk or anything, but I sometime lack that extra touch of love that makes things seem pleasant.
the problem with the tank straps.... look up the history of CorningWare...
Sean, when you realize how good these straps are, and that no one will ever need to replace them, do us a favor and keep making them!
That was way more entertaining than I thought it would be! It had been in my recommended for over a week. Kudos guys!
Hello! Just a question, what about the sitbelt on the guy on the rear sit? (bench l
Hey I’m a big fan of the channel and I live in pa I’m 18 years old. I’ve always wanted a motorcycle. I was hoping you guys could help me out with some tips for buying a beginner bike, I used to race bicycles and I’ve always wanted to follow in my fathers lifestyle of being a die hard Harley fan. Please let me know anything is appreciated! Love the videos 👍🏻👍🏻
You should make a TH-cam video tutorial on how to use the tank straps for people to refer to when they buy them. It’ll save you time explaining.
I actually have a couple of those, if you search tank straps you will find them
Thankyooooooooooooooooooooou going to be checking out your inventory daily.
Awesome
The Harley Davidson dealership where I live has a crazy Harley museum in the top part with some amazing bikes in it.
Plz Sean, test the various riding modes on the xsr900
How do you buy bikes from a dealer at a low enough price to sell them for a profit? Do they have mechanical issues the dealer just doesn't want to trouble with or something? Or is that all trade secrets? LOL
I'm retired down here in Florida and would love to flip some bikes. Not so much for the money (which would be welcome, don't get me wrong) but mainly for the pleasure of getting to ride so many different bikes.
West Philadelphia BORN AND RAISED "thug life!!" .. is he gonna be there ? .. well its either him or his mom .. COMON :D .. after hearing that remark my board is now drenched in coffee
Oh man that Yamaha is sweet.Wait a minute where is the rear tail light assembly?
Agree
is the light strip you see behind the seat, pretty cool.
"Dude it has pedals!". Yeah. I feel old now... thx :P.
Hi after your review on the kawasaki vn900 I'm having mine on sunday Shaun thank you for your great video's well done
I had an interceptor, it was beautiful. BRIGHT YELLOW
Greg Hancock is one of the greatest speedway riders ever Retired last year at 49 And was still filling 55 000 seat stadiums at this time An American I see your epp where the guy wanted 3000 for a 1000 worth of old speedway bike Greg is your man Check him out
I wouldn’t know how to use a ratchet strap if I didn’t work with steel and drive the flat bed . It’s good to know and comes in handy a lot
How on earth do you get dealerships to sell you a bike at wholesale?
Simple. You buy a boatload of bikes from them.
Holding the sauce cup for your homie to dip in, now that's real bro shit right there! 🤜🏻🤛🏻
vitpilen and svartpilen translates to "white arrow" and "Black Arrow" and is basically a KTM with husqvarna branding.
Huskys basically are KTMs but using different break companies for the peripherals like breaks, wheels etc. The chassis, engines suspension are basically the same sometimes with different intakes but still. However for some reason I like Huskys better and from all I've read they appear to be more reliable also a tiny bit more expensive as well usually. Just reentered Moto3 and are apparently going to be making road bikes, can't wait to see what they bring to the roads.
Mmmmmmm loved that Diavel, fantastic bike, can't wait to get mine out again in about a month....damn snow.....lol
The ST100 is notorious for heat build up causing the gas tank to get very hot. One guy stated it was burning his balls. Extensive modifications are needed.
You guys are so cool it looks like your just having lots of fun selling stuff and riding bikes lots of love have a great day!!! 😁👍👍
We are and hopefully it inspires you to have fun too
@@BikesandBeards Heck yeah I got my licence and bought a sweet vtx1300 with a 240 back tire kit because of your guys review on srk on price and reliability of Honda vtx cruisers. Having a blast now I just need to buy a couple more bikes lol. 😁
I was waiting for the moment you slammed on in the van and sent that lad in the back through the window screen 😂😂🙈
In what's month do you sell the most bikes in your area ?
The most was 40 and it’s normally between April and October
I came here for the Maxim lol just kidding, it was actually just a pleasant surprise!
Goin to look at a 04 sportster 1200 custom 9700 miles with lots of after markets parts dealership askin 3999 whats a good price to buy?
Seems fair
Good video! How do you not have more subscribers?!! Also love your weekly Bible verses! thank you!
Love the van. Super cars, 300 bikes
........and a rusty trusty!!!! After my own heart.
I live in gainsville area good to see you had a good time
Wow, you have the greatest boat ever..it's a Grady white..fantastic quality..looks like about 21 foot cuddy cabin..that tells me you appreciate quality..need a video of some serious fishing
Haha that’s a good eye but it’s not my boat. It’s the landlords boat and he takes great care of it
My grandad used to own some of those old bikes you showed in this video
What makes those tank straps any different than a ratchet strap? Im not seeing it?
Harrison you're the best man
That Yamaha is an absolute beauty!
I was waiting to hear about the Husqvarna trail boss off road bike with the twin chainsaws in the front and dual leaf blowers on the side.
