Those twins look great, really good to see something new. Absolutely no one is going to the go to the pub and say 'Fancy a look at my Benda Chinchilla?' though, the UK importer needs to step in and get a grip on those names
Well I'm inclined to agree with you but I'm told Benda have already invested tens of millions in the branding. Of course all over Europe is fine as they don't have the negative connotation.
@@MindfulMotorcyclist ahh ok, even leaving the brand aside, 'Chinchilla' isn't much better. RE have got the 'Bear' and 'Guerilla', I can't tell my wife I'm going out for a ride on my Chinchilla 🤪 RE do have the Flying Flea though, but 2 out of 3 isn't bad......
@MindfulMotorcyclist Well still work in progress. First vid will be Conwy MCC feb next year! (The ones I did prev can do as a bloopers thing due to mic issues n swearing😂). P s just did my first bike chain tightening. 3k service 1st week of Feb then Wales🏴. Cymru am byth.
Well it's only the UK that has an issue, the other 27 European countries are fine, as is the USA, Asia etc. We are only a small piece of the pie now...
The VOGE range does look impressive & good value. That 700cc inline 4 (with the widest rear tyre) looks good too. Thanks for the walk through of MotoGB's stand. 🤜🏻🤛🏻
It looked when you were bouncing about on the bikes that they must be displayed with there suspension as low as possible, obviously to make it easier to get aboard. Wonder how different they will feel when seen in a dealers shop. Most seem to be feet forward models how many were midpegs because i personally love the cruiser style but not feet forward position's.
Thanks for the video Sean & Suzie. I hope the best for H-D, but my gut feeling thinks that their time is limited. The way that I see the next 5 years shaping up, is Royal Enfield & the Chinese brands. Have a beautiful day! Cheers!! Illinois, USA
I can only imagine Richard Gerebil as the spokesman for the new "Benda Chinchilla"! Or King Kong versus Gerbilla? 🙂 In the '60s there were many advertisements in the comic books for young entrepreneurs to become "Chinchilla Ranchers"! No...Really. Picture yourself astride a mighty Mustang stallion, surrounded by your herd of thousands of rascally rodents as you drove them across the vast western deserts to towns like Tombstone and Dodge City where you would turn your Chinchillas into BIG money! The Chinese really need someone to help them name their companies and their offerings. By my faith, I truly enjoyed this video! SS in the once again united, USA!
I actually really want the Chinchilla, it's my habit of supporting the underdog. A lot of the older generation in UK do not like the name as it has a negative connotation here but the bike itself is lovely. I know, a United USA led to victory by the Avengers!!! Syria 'not our fight'! Brilliant.
These V-twins remind me that Moto Guzzi gets it right, having their V-twin cylinders turned to be more-effectively cooled by the wind (BMW's flat-twins have always looked awkward to me). Also that even parallel-twins with 270-degree cranks are less-costly to produce, while still having "the sound."
Some nice bikes guys I liked the morbidelli V 1000 cruiser, the TRK Benelli is nice but is a lump of a bike and like you say underpowered, nice to see you suzie …… Pete 🇫🇷
Completely different I think you will love a big VTwin didn’t you go to a HD experience, and the FTR Indian I remember you being blown away by the FTR 😂 or am I really losing my marbles 🤣🤣🤣
I like your channel but Suze camara work is awful she should concentrate on the bikes not the people , try to look a vid from biker simon for inspiration 😊

If they ever ate at a Wimpy they might be interested 🤣

Def worth a closer look! Still leaning towards a R E classic 650
Maurice rides out! Like the name. Cheers for the comment 👍

Or the Bear
@@deltabluesdavidraye 👍 (have a Himalayan so for me classic more tempting) but after 1st year of ownership the extras etc start to add up.
It's like these companies have done no research regarding names. Maybe they could rename to "On the Lash"

🤜🏻🤛🏻
Thanks Barry! They've got some cracking bikes tbh...
if the Street Rod had been made like this it would have been a hit. Most people liked that 750 engine, they just hated the package it was wrapped in.

I'm the same Ian, I'd have a cruiser with mid pegs or perhaps slightly forward...
With those names, they clearly not aimed at the UK market 🤣 although at those prices not much can compete if they could sort out dealer support.

I like HD too, nothing like riding them but they are very expensive here. Thanks Larry. 👍

Didn't go guys but thought your coverage was great and much enjoyed some really nice bikes on offer for next year 👌👍
That's really kind of you to say thank you 😊
Some truly stunning looking bikes, be nice to see how they actually are though
I would very much like to have one to borrow!
Mottled finish? Like Hammerite?
Exactly like the hammerite finish yes.
@ Hahaha, that takes me back to happier low-tech times.
Great video guys! Lots of bikes there that look AMAZING 😍
I'm still tempted by a Benda... might get one as the channel bike, be different 🤔 🤣🤣
Do it mate!!! I think they look SO good
1:15 Stunning.
Are you at a Chinese moto show? Never heard of any of those brands.
We are at Motorcycle Live in Birmingham, Chinese bikes are coming of age and to UK market...
Some nice bikes guys I liked the morbidelli V 1000 cruiser, the TRK Benelli is nice but is a lump of a bike and like you say underpowered, nice to see you suzie …… Pete 🇫🇷
Thanks Pete, I'd like to ride the 1000 cruiser, I've only ever ridden 1000cc in inline 4 form...
Completely different I think you will love a big VTwin didn’t you go to a HD experience, and the FTR Indian I remember you being blown away by the FTR 😂 or am I really losing my marbles 🤣🤣🤣
Enjoy your videos guys 👍
Have you joined the French foreign legion lol.
Thanks Greg, and no whilst Suzie would fit in I'm too soft for the legion 😉😂
you must be tired , you have been at that show for a month ;;
My mother-in-law 🦏has a huge 'rear tyre'.....but we don't talk about it...🤣
😂😂
focus!
😂
If I owned one and anyone asked what I ride I think that I'd answer, oh a Chinese V twin and hope I wasn't asked what make.
Could just say Chinese cruiser or the like. That's what I'd say.
i fancy a chinese .
Harley look without the history,, which Harley themselves slowly eroding
Both brands will meet in the middle at some point 🤣
I like your channel but Suze camara work is awful she should concentrate on the bikes not the people , try to look a vid from biker simon for inspiration 😊
😂😂- we pride ourselves on not being professional... and Suzes was right that woman was very distracting 😂
Bendas ride Harleys...then there's the Chinese? 😂
Don't be mean! 😉
