Not sure if I speak for everyone... But if we have to listen to a minute or two of a VPN ad (or any random ad for that matter), and it means you pay your bills and have some leniency in your finances, I say go for it man! It's no big deal to us. And occasionally, it could actually be helpful! Keep up the good stuff Burch. Cheers.
@@LifeOfBurch go for it dude. If you don't want to make it generic, modify the ad read with jokes or something, maybe make analogies to riding, put your own twist to it then put it in the middle of the ride instead of a cut. That way if the ad read is hilarious/entertaining, we'd watch it in full. Get the bag, my man.
I came for the Honda Rebel reviews and stayed to support a fellow refugee from the restaurant industry. Whatever you're doing I always enjoy the content. Happy 2023!
i just bought my rebel 1100 because of your videos. my first bike ever. I rode it from the dealer to my buddies house, broke my leg a few days later. Now I watch your videos to ride through you till this thing is healed. thank you for your videos man. also its easy enough to skip a small portion of your video if we dont want to hear about a VPN. you need to do what you need to do.
5:27 "Held up" (like by gunpoint from a depression/anxiety/procrastination monster wielding a gun) OR "Holed up" like a motorcyclist boi in a corner with tons of comforters on. Both ways work, but different (if slightly) meaning behind them.
Get a Joe Rocket Survivor suit. Best gear money I've ever spent and keeps me riding year round. When we lived in Curtis Bay my wife needed her truck for work, I only had the Vulcan for a few years. Keep up the good work man. '23 is gonna be good to you man.
You should plan a trip to California for next winter for a couple weeks film a bunch of content that you can use during the winter season and maybe just dub a monologue over the vids. About whatever you want to talk about. I don't know... Love the channel, love the vids, keep doing you!
As a fellow gearhead, rider, and aspiring content creator; I definately appreciate content creators like you that let us viewers see behind the curtain a bit regarding the business side of TH-cam. Your story is an inspiring one, my friend. Godspeed!
Dude you’re making me miss my bike man 😭😭 you were one of the first few people to stop by the table by the way! Appreciate you brother, you kinda broke some nervousness that I had.
Found your videos because i used to ride a lot back in the college days and i miss it so much. Love Honda's and first bike was a Honda Shadow and if i get back into it i was thinking of the Honda Rebel 1100. Great content, keep it up.
Hey man! It was great meeting you at coffee the other day. The winter funk is a real thing. Always good to get out, ride, and meet new humans when you can. I don’t know Annapolis very well. Hopefully we can meet up again soon and ride around the area.
Just because you can't be out riding, we still expect the same number vids, lmao. This shortness of content will not be tolerated. All kidding aside, glad to see you're doing good. These milder temperatures right now are a godsend.
Happy New Year Birch! We just took our Honda Rebel 500 out yesterday for the first time since November! So you're not alone there. I enjoy your positive videos! Annapolis looks beautiful right now! Now I've got to get my Vespa Sprint back from the shop.
I totally get throttle therapy even thought I’ve never had a motorized vehicle. I call it two wheel therapy because all I can afford is a bicycle right now but even my dogs love to ride it.
I voted on the poll you had a few weeks back about when you want to do your meet ups. I'd love to make it this year if I can, I'll have to plan way ahead though to get the time off. Is it still going to be going down in the fall?
The vast majority of people voted for a season opener type deal, so I’m gonna shoot for April/May. I’ll let everyone know once I have an exact date locked down! 🤘🏻
@@LifeOfBurch Sounds great, I'll make an effort to be there. If not this year then definitely next year. Love your channel man, you keep the positive vibes going
Hey Burch, maybe release some Rebel or LifeofBurch themed merch; hoodies, bike keychains, t shirts. Ik I’d be down to grab a hoodie and support the channel.
Loved the video man. Happy New Year to you too! I feel the same way that there's something about 2023 that makes it feel like its going to be a year of growth! Keep on grinding mate! 🔥
fun to see you on the bike again. still hoping you sell hoodies like the one you have that speaks of riding safely becasue of the cat at home that needs you.
I feel ya, Burch! The SAD [seasonal affective disorder] is so wicked on motorcyclists! I got out today [1/1/23] and it was awesome! [check out my vid tomorrow - 1/2 - I got some EPIC shots!] Did you finish the Ducati Lego set? I didn't see a follow-up stream, but it was funny watching someone who doesn't build Lego, build Lego. My biggest suggestion for making sure you have content, even if there's a nice day you spend working on your bikes, is to create a backlog of footage - record a few videos and get to editing them when you have down time. That's what I do to make sure the 2/week schedule keeps getting met :D
It definitely gets tempting! But I want to stay true to the channel, and most of the offers don’t align with the channel or my interests. I’ve never even used a VPN honestly lol
Burch, dude! I was riding for a long while into "winter" and then a friggen cold snap hit and it was coooooold for these parts in Bama. Luckily, it didn't have any rain associated, but still -- balls cold. They snuck up in da stomach to keep warm. And yesterday, I went riding again! It was sorely missed! Also, are you allowed to lane split where you is? I wish they had that here. Peace Burch-dude! I need to get a Burch shirt! Where are they?
Hahah not them sneaking up in your stomach! 😭😂 I’ve been working on a Burch Merch site to sells shirts, so expect that to go live in the next month or two! I do have shirts already made though, so feel free to email me at LifeOfBurch@gmail.com if you want to get one before the site’s up 🤘🏻
Get some heated gear. I would recommend a battery-connected heat troller setup with some heated pants, jacket, and gloves. I got some warm and safe brand, and I love it. It's slim and stretchy, not big and bulky like some other brands, so it fits well under a hoody and some jeans. I was riding outside the other day wearing summer-oriented riding gear (jeans and vented Icon jacket) over my heated gear and I was completely warm even with it in the 30's. (I was actually a bit hot!) I bet if you reached out to them they might even hook you up.
Hmmm... Couldn't you put down a tarp in your living room to fix the Navi? There's no fluid in the transmission housing. You bring the Navis into the condo anyway, so maybe do the work for that in there when it's cold.
Yea that’s the plan, but I need it to be on a day where I could get out after and test to see if the Navi’s actually fixed or not. I’ve almost started working on it multiple times, but then talk myself out of it cause it’d just be sitting there taunting me until I find out if the work actually solved anything lol
The funny thing is, I actually made a joke about that and even counted the swans, but ended up not putting it in the video 😂 (There were 13 swans if you were wondering lol)
Great video and you are great at sharing your life while on a motorcycle. 2k for a VPN AD, well you do need to ensure you have a tool to keep your network secure and since you use the internet to drive and manage your business then maybe it makes sense to use a VPN and try that vendor. Take care and look forward to more of your content.
OOH Other idea, if you do advertisements as Voice Overs and add it into the video. You could post the copy of the video WITHOUT Ads to Patreon as Unlisted video??
A famous motorcycle YT'er states that NBT stuff is cheap and not protective for riders at all. I think he has a video about it even. It's too expensive and not worth the money if it is not going to protect you. You should look into it for your viewers and do not give them bad advice. Just sayin'.
I know it can give context, but I wish this channel would keep it bike related instead of youtoober life. That just makes you the same as all the other channels.
It’s staying bike related, I just mean that now when I go on trips on the bike I’ll have the handheld vlog setup to better document things when I’m off the bike at the destination. Before, that meant being the weirdo walking around talking to himself in his helmet and getting a heatstroke in the process 😂
Ya bro if they want to sponsor the channel I think most of your viewers wouldn't mind listening to a quick ad, if anything it just means you'll get more money to do more cool videos. Whichever you prefer I support you!
Hey man! It sounds like you may be reaching kindof a ceiling when it comes to your bike content. I’d love to hop in a call and discuss some ideas and brainstorm together. If you’re down for that I can drop my discord or twitter.
Not sure if I speak for everyone... But if we have to listen to a minute or two of a VPN ad (or any random ad for that matter), and it means you pay your bills and have some leniency in your finances, I say go for it man!

I support this message!
Thanks for that perspective dude! I’m lucky to have that type of support from y’all!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
On the channels that I enjoy watching like this one, I take my time and watch the whole ad to give them the best revenue possible. I say go for it!
Agreed 💯
@@LifeOfBurch go for it dude.

"Holed up" like a motorcyclist boi in a corner with tons of comforters on.
Both ways work, but different (if slightly) meaning behind them.

I’m trying dang it!! 😂😂😂 Happy New Year brotha! 🙌🏻
2023 for the win! For real though ya always have to have a goal to work towards. Will it into fruition in 2023!!
Happy New Year, Mike.
Happy new year dude! 🎉🤘🏻
Happy new years fam ☝🙏👊
Happy New Years bro from Texas ❗️
Currently looking at Navi, grom, or nc750x ? Any thoughts peoples ?
Or rebel 1100
Happy New Year

Finish line? Guessing, it was a Turkey Trot. Glad to hear Nina's name.
The Bay, ahhhhh. I always say hello to it when I go over the bridge. Ok, enough replies. How lucky are we????
Awesome to see you back out! I can’t wait to see you accomplish your goals, Burch! Sky’s the limit, and 2023 will be YOUR year! Cheers!!
Thanks so much dude!! Right back at ya! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Ads don’t matter man, do what you need. You make great videos with a different perspective than most Moto Channels I follow.
Just a suggestion, maybe look into cold weather gear? I normally ride year round. Normally because I'm injured and not allowed to ride
🥺🥺 the story about the flower guy is so sweet. I’ve bought flowers from him a few times before but never knew that
How would you compare the Honda Rebel 1100 to the Honda Shadow? I have a shadow but I am started to like this 1100.
I totally get throttle therapy even thought I’ve never had a motorized vehicle. I call it two wheel therapy because all I can afford is a bicycle right now but even my dogs love to ride it.
Yeah this weather is great. Do I ride the motorcycle or take the boat out???
Six bedroom house adds up to Nina, you and cat. Oh yes little Burch's running around. Go for it!

Here’s to ‘23!
So I am trying to see if the new rebel 1100 cruiser batwing and the bags will go on the 22 model? Any help would be nice.
Yup, everything from the new 1100T will go directly on the regular 1100! I haven’t seen anywhere that you can order the parts yet though.
Great video Burch !!! 🤙🏽
Thanks Marvin! Happy New Year! 🙌🏻🥂
What is your Honda's mileage now?
78 degrees down here in Houston today. 😎
Daaang I’m jealous! 😭
Hey Burch, maybe release some Rebel or LifeofBurch themed merch; hoodies, bike keychains, t shirts. Ik I’d be down to grab a hoodie and support the channel.
I have that in the works as we speak! Burch Merch coming soon! 🙌🏻
Loved the video man. Happy New Year to you too! I feel the same way that there's something about 2023 that makes it feel like its going to be a year of growth! Keep on grinding mate! 🔥
Thanks so much dude!! This is our year for sure! Happy new year 🎉🥂🙌🏻
fun to see you on the bike again. still hoping you sell hoodies like the one you have that speaks of riding safely becasue of the cat at home that needs you.
I’m late on this one but you’re awesome!
I feel ya, Burch! The SAD [seasonal affective disorder] is so wicked on motorcyclists! I got out today [1/1/23] and it was awesome! [check out my vid tomorrow - 1/2 - I got some EPIC shots!]

Absolutely brotha! This hoodie is so sick! 🤘🏻

Thanks for the recommendation man! I’ll definitely have to check them out. That sounds right up my alley. Heated gear usually just seems too bulky!
If you think thats cold try living in the UK its 2 degree celcius now. But bikers go out anyway aslong as it doesnt hit 0
Hmmm... Couldn't you put down a tarp in your living room to fix the Navi? There's no fluid in the transmission housing. You bring the Navis into the condo anyway, so maybe do the work for that in there when it's cold.

Hope '23 treats you well and hope you can have a subscriber meetup I can join in on this year!🙏Keep on ridin'!
Thanks dude, same to you!! Tentative plan is a meetup in April or May, but I’ll post a definite date once I have one 🤘🏻
I wonder why u couldn’t rent a house in warm weather states during cold time
Were there 7 swans a swimming?
The funny thing is, I actually made a joke about that and even counted the swans, but ended up not putting it in the video 😂 (There were 13 swans if you were wondering lol)
As long as you include a taco stop in your vlogs, we'll be fine with it 😂❤️
This late winter surge of warmth has been killer. Dodging rain like crazy but at least I've been riding lol
Agreed! I’ll take warm and rainy over negative temps all day!! 🙌🏻🙏🏻
Great video and you are great at sharing your life while on a motorcycle. 2k for a VPN AD, well you do need to ensure you have a tool to keep your network secure and since you use the internet to drive and manage your business then maybe it makes sense to use a VPN and try that vendor. Take care and look forward to more of your content.
Very good point! I appreciate the comment! 🙏🏻🤘🏻
Happy New Year. 100% agree, stay a Motovlogger. yes another taco episode! Happy New Year.
Thanks Paul! Happy new year!! 🎉🥂🙏🏻
OOH Other idea, if you do advertisements as Voice Overs and add it into the video.
You could post the copy of the video WITHOUT Ads to Patreon as Unlisted video??
I always find the 'no wave back' awkward especially when it's other bikers that don't wave as I pass by
True that!
Its Holded up, LOL.
Look at a big buddy heater... You're welcome
The issue is I don’t have a garage to put the heater in though 😅😂
@@LifeOfBurch I smoke cigars outside, my big buddy heater and 20lbs propane tank keeps me warm. Hell sometimes I have to turn it down lol.
My guy!
hopefully you get to crank out some more videos now baybeeee
hello
Yooo! Happy new year! 🙌🏻
Daytona is coming up
20TWENTYTHREE is your year!!!
It sure is!! 🙌🏻🎉🙏🏻
Monitize for the future
Let me know when you want to sell that puppy

Step 1: Get house on the water
