    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

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

      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......

    It's like these companies have done no research regarding names. Maybe they could rename to "On the Lash"

      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.

    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.

    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.

    • @MindfulMotorcyclist
      @MindfulMotorcyclist  วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      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.

    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!

      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."
