I absolutely loved hearing a little bit about your motorcycling and motovlogging journey so far, I can just imagine having you on Wolf Tales telling us all of this experience in greater detail, as much as I've enjoyed my own journey so far, I love hearing other peoples journeys, I find them fascinating finding out how people got into motorcycling and sometimes motovlogging etc. Ahah unfortunately there are a lot of stupid people on sport bikes that give us all a bad rep, but you're right I think it is getting better. Oooo blueberry muffin YES the best choice. Thank you so much for the shoutout mate, your kind words definitely mean a lot to me bro. Man I'm so happy you did start a channel, because your videos are so genuine, they're insightful, very well presented and a lot of fun as well, you're doing the sport bikes guys and the motovlogging scene proud mate. Keep up the hard work, I promise the subs and views will come, it's just such a grind. Great video mate, really good stuff, I hope you and Mrs KG are both well.
I really do appreciate those compliments man!! Dude...it would be so weird to be on something as professional as Wolf Tales! Blueberry FTW!! Actually Banana Nut is pretty good too!!
Over 30 years of riding and did not think of starting a TH-cam channel of course there was no TH-cam when I started riding. But 7 months ago I decided to start a channel and hell I love it , Great video brother 🇺🇸👍👍👍
On point here KG, I started riding in 1983 and years ago I had a lot of people ask me if I would start a YT channel…… no way !!! Haha. Until I retired and now it’s an awesome hobby that replaces “work” for me. Cheers
Interesting subject. Had my channel over 12 years, for most of that time, it was used as a personal diary of our travels. A kind of a dumping ground for ride clips. It was the comments section and folks like Hippo-Drones that persuaded us/me to try and make better vids to try and appeal to a wider audience.
Hell yeah, it's cool to hear the backstory!! I definitley don't regret starting mine but I agree, the hill to climb is super steep and sometimes it feels like it's angling over top or vertical
Good stuff dude. No hooliganism. I to started my channel and it’s a struggle but fun. I am a cruiser guy but still like sports bikes. Return to riding after 20 years away and wanted to focus on safety training. Folks don’t care to hear that stuff but I will continue on my journey. Keep it up. Ride safe.
That's awesome man! I'll be sure to stop by your channel. I like ALL bikes too. ( Maybe not scooters as much ) 😂😂. Practicing safety is the smart play!! Don't let anyone tell you otherwise!
That was cool hearing about origins starting in riding and YouTubing. Douche bags are everywhere in the world, in all works of life. That's what it's about for me, having fun doing what I do. You're spot on with all you've said. Good video, Kode. Ride well. Cheers
The Kleb and Sub D got me interested, because it looked like fun. Then I realized it would be a perfect journal of memories. I had garbage cameras to start...then a really cool guy from Oz, Bobber400 sent me a camera that I still use to this day. The vlogger community is awesome, and I'm glad I started. When I'm 80 I can binge watch my younger, fun days.
That's awesome of that dude to send you that camera!! Yes, the vlogging community is definitely awesome! I hear Sub D is supposed to come back and make videos again. No idea about the Kleb.
Enjoyed it KG. I still think it's odd hearing myself talk and moving my arms around while riding. Have to wonder what others behind or beside us think.
Sport bike dudes... There's a whole vlogging episode right there! another great video Kode, I love how you actually vlog, while on the bike unlike a lot of Vlogger channels where they seem to have forgotten the purpose of the ride itself, which is actually riding! The struggle is real huh? You'll make it, you're over half-way there bro! Your audio is really good man! Keep up the great work!
Great video mate, I always loved the idea of making videos for my own video diary and it progressed into vlogging, but still for me however anyone else is welcome to watch. I never look at analytics, it just consumes your time and becomes depressing. Do it for you. If you make it, they will come ⚾️
I mainly do it for me. There are some videos I know aren't going to do well, but I wanted to make them, so I did. But also, since I am putting them out there for the world to watch, I try to make them enjoyable. Analytics can be depressing, I stay away from those as much as I can! Thanks Phil!!
🤣35mph guy I like it ! KG who cares man you keep your bike in tact you don't injure yourself the footage and sound are always great and the freeway ( if that's what you call it ) is the place to stretch her legs from time to time .I've noticed you touched 60 there at least once too 😉.As far as vlogging goes the thing you need to master is editing and I just can't do it 😁so that's why anything I might do is just fer me to look back on when I start to fall apart . I think the thing is just enjoy your rides and talking to yourself because hey you ain't gonna fall out with yourself (hopefully ) 😁👌👍
I don't know man...I can get awfully angry at myself sometimes!! 😂. I always ride MY ride. And I actually think it's a bit safer to vlog at slower speeds. I need to focus when I'm going a bit quicker. That's hard to do when I'm running my mouth! 😁
Great video bro. I think it's cool you had the courage and motivation to try making TH-cam videos. Understandable that it's hard trying to build your channel when there is sooooo much content out there. There is a TH-cam video for just about anything you can think of. Glad you haven't given in to frustration because you make pretty cool videos and I like the topics you talk about. Before you started your channel, I didn't even know there was such a thing as moto vlogging. Turns out I actually enjoy it. 😁
Reese Rides and Feed on Speed are some good sports bike channels. I don't care what someone rides, if they are entertaining/informational and fun. I'll watch.
I'm already subbed to Reese Rides. But I think she is mainly doing car stuff now right? I will certainly go check out Feed on Speed though! Thanks man!!
I tried launching my channel. It stopped right after visiting the clown motel in tonopah, NV lol. I just wanted to capture the memories of all the places i went to and youtube would be an easy place to store everything to view it later on in life or show people where i've been. My issue is literally i work so much i am exhausted by time i have a day off after working 12's+ that i stopped.
If you are doing 12's then I don't blame you!! Trying to find time just doing 8 and a half is hard enough! Nice to have the memories, but you have to sleep too.
sorry, i way behind on watching vids. But good vid Kode, I think you are doing it right, and started your channel for the right reasons. Its refreshing to see channels like yours and Rythmic's, that are sport bikes doing normal riding and not the crazy stuff. As long as you are having fun, like you said.
Nice video. 👍 I started my channel cause I was watching alot of motovloggers and noticed that there was Noone from my area and I was bored at the time, so I started it. I wasn't expecting much out of it, because I am not much of a talker. But gave it a shot. Then I noticed a couple of others near by started channels. 🤣🤣 But anyways, I enjoy vlogging even though I am not that great at it.
I haven't been lucky enough to find any motovloggers near me yet. There are some within a few hour ride, but none really close to me. That I know of anyway!! Thanks Roy!!

I remember about 10 years ago a buddy asked me if I was gonna switch from moto blogging to vlogging... I said no way. He was like, really???? You sure???? Biggest mistake of my life. The competition and quality was so low ten years. It's definitely way harder now. People have an endless source of stuff to watch from creators all over the world. We're all too late lol
Oh we are very late to the party!! Almost impossible now to get really big. Especially if you're not focused on motorcycle or gear reviews. Thanks man!!
The douche bag ratio in motorcycles is sadly, quite high (not just here on TH-cam, but in general). One of the best things that happened to me being a TH-camr is the friends that I have made along the way. One thing I have found being a Moto Vlogger on TH-cam is that the attrition rate is quite high. There are alot of channels that have stopped producing content. Some have even been deleted all together.
Couldn't agree more!! I've met SO many cool people doing this!! Yeah, it's weird. A lot of those channels that disappeared were really good channels too! Thanks Matt!
LOL, a sport bike rider not doing hooligan stuff? Say it isn't so! At those speeds, you appeal to the cruiser crowd, just sayin'. I saw your high score this time was 62! Were you skerred? HAHA, thanks for the shout-out - glad I could inspire you... is your name Stan by any chance? AND, you singled me out... I'm not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing!?!?!?
I have to laugh, when you started riding, you knew you weren’t going to do the TH-cam thing. When in started riding, there was no such thing as TH-cam!!😂😂 I’m old!!
