Oh yeah, I'm feeling that "fall in the fall" on my channel so much right now. I couldn't put a well-performing video out if my life depended it on this time of year lol
LOL, it happens... every year. What can you do? I do find it funny though - motorcycle people don't watch motorcycle videos in the off-season, when they have more time and aren't always out riding. What gives?
I am doing very well this morning, thank you! I have had no headaches for a few weeks and I am very grateful! I hope you're having a wonderful weekend, John! It is a crisp 18° out here this morning lol
Glad to hear you're doing well, and thanks for the well wishes! It's in the 30s today... might throw a leg over anyway :D So far, it's noon and I just got out of bed, so it's a good day!
Oh yeah, I totally forgot about THOSE! They'd follow you, and 30 seconds later - DING - they're like "dude, I can make you and your bike into a cartoon! PM me for details" ... uh, no thanks.
It was good to see that I am not the only one who makes multiple comments throughout a video. I do try to (but not always) wait until the end to hit the comment button. I hate spam messages of any kind. If I did not solicit the information, then I am not interested in extending my car's warranty LOL (for example)
LOL, no, you're not alone in the multiple comment arena :D I too, hate spam... the spammers sure do put in a lot of effort though, dang. I wish they'd just stop.
Awwe darn, I thought all those SEO love messages I've received were from folks who genuinely loves our channels... Bah Hah Hah... I don't get the 15 a day you mentioned, but my muscle memory for clicking to block 'em has been perfectly honed, but I still get those waste of time messages. Good stuff, John 😁👍👍
@@YouMotorcycle I cannot deny Adrian's comment... I DO put out a lot of videos :D FWIW, given what I've already recorded, I'll just about be able to do 3/week until Spring :D
Yeah, you can usually look at the stats and it'll tell you what's going on. I know my own channel sort of falls into that "stats look" category, but I haven't done any buying of views or subs - I just have a few videos that continually gain views and subs, LOL.
Buying views, and subscribers is something I can not afford. I still have a GoPro3, and two other Chinese action cameras. I am not complaining since all the action cameras I have were purchased by others. Lately, I've been testing out different settings to see if the other camera's could be used with the least amount of issues. If all else fails, the GoPro3 always works, but having only 1080p, and no image stabilization kind of sucks. At least the newer Chinese action cameras have image stabilization, not great, but better than none.
Oh man... I woke up to 3 or 4 more this morning, ugh. Now they're asking for paid Amazon reviews - no purchase necessary, just a review! Yay. Not doing it.
I love messing around with these folks when they send me an email...😂😅... I say what exactly do you like about my channel? What is so wonderful about it? Then they reply with another statement about how they can help me lol. And I send them another email back and say "answer my question" ... And then I block them and get back to editing 😅😅😅
That's awesome! It's like the telemarketers that call your phone... I'm usually mad I'm being interrupted and forget to mess with them. Same thing with the spammers - I'd rather click DELETE and move on with my day - too many other things to do :D
I keep getting them as well and just ignore em. I love that I can honestly say all my work has been real and authentic. Like you said TH-cam will figure it out .. good job on the two jump offs in a single video... Now how about 5??
I bet not only is it not worth it. I bet it's detrimental, since the next vids CTR and such will go down and hurr the vids that aren't watched by them.
I think you do have something on you. Looks like a shirt, almost. / How would you even sell subs? 😅 "I have 5 too many, best sell them to someone in need."
HAHA, yeah, my shirt. And no, I wouldn't give it to anyone... I sorta need it :D I don't know how you'd sell subs, but I've heard of people selling entire channels.
Prefer having a real conversation and having real views. It also more to have conversations with people who are into motorcycles and fun. 😊
100% Agreed! Thanks for watching, Dave!
Yes, a great little community! Real people and real relationships.
Yeah, it's awesome - and not so little anymore ;)

Yeah, I never understood paying for subs and views. They won't stay and there is no real interaction.
Bingo! :D
Thanks for really watching - bots won't comment :D
You will never regret being kind. 💜
Ain't THAT the truth!
I love my Bohn flannel.... And not just because it's purple lol. Yes I am drinking my coffee, coffee, coffee while I'm watching this! ☕☕☕
Oh yeah, we're Bohn Buddies! Is that a thing? No? OK, we should make it a thing :D
I used to get that type of solicitation on Instagram from people who wanted to make me into a cartoon.

It's bad. I may have exaggerated slightly... but not by much. They're really bad. Ugh.
It's because he publishes 15x the content everyone else does lol

I just started getting Facebook messages like this. I guess some people actually do this?!? It’s a no for me also.
Yeah, people fall for it... SMH. It's a gig economy... sometimes you get the gig, sometimes you ARE the gig, LOL.
I agree. Earn it. Natural growth is the best growth.
Amen to that!
I too have a flux capacitor on my bike...at least a decal of one.
😂😂
So, we'll meet at Twin Pines Mall at 1:30am?
@ Let me get the Delorean warmed up!!
@@Motoramblings Unlike your Delorean, a Harley WILL get up to 88mph :D
@ 😂😂😂
Yes, a fall in the fall especially December
Hey, at least I nailed the timing on this one, didn't I? It's almost like I knew...
Agreed !!
Organic growth is the best
Heck yeah! How ya been, Craig?
@ - all good ! Ready to get back at it in the new year !!! Rested and ready to start creating again.
@@SHHHMotoTravels That's awesome! I already took my break... I have too many videos to edit to get caught up, LOL.
Thanks, now that sweet caroline ditty will be in my head all day 😅😅
It's a catchy tune, isn't it? 😅
@RoadReality Yep...bom bom bom.🎵
@@SpyderWayne HAHAHAHA
Great advice John 😎👍👍
Thanks, man!
I’ve seen a few that pay for views and even someone like myself can see it.

Hey, I have seen channels spend money on worse. Better equipment will almost always beat buying your way through! :D
Yeah. I'm always getting the SEO emails. I do not get it. I'm just having fun. lol
I know, right? Like, hey dudes, we're not getting rich off this, how do you expect us to pay for it? And just, no.
So obviously when this is done. Just press record...it all works itself out.😂😂
Yeah, 100%... give it a shot. LOL, that's now how ANY of this works, Karen!
😎👍👍
Extra protein.... Don't worry about it.... Embrace the moment lol with whatever landed on you
HAHA, ok. :D
I hate those emails/ messages …

Birdie birdie in the sky sky you do that in my eye
Right? Totally unexpected, and left no residue outside of a smudge on my glasses. What the heck?
Pretty trees!
Yes indeed! More pretty trees and foliage to come... I got quite a few rides & videos done in the extra-long Fall season we had!
Thanks for the Neil diamond going through the head now 😂

Dude I get these email daily from my TH-cam account and my Website. It’s annoying as hell.
Right? Geez, #BigChannelProblems :D
I keep getting them as well and just ignore em. I love that I can honestly say all my work has been real and authentic. Like you said TH-cam will figure it out .. good job on the two jump offs in a single video... Now how about 5??
Good job! And 5 jump-offs? That's... coming? Stay tuned, it depends on what you consider a "jump off" :D
I bet not only is it not worth it. I bet it's detrimental, since the next vids CTR and such will go down and hurr the vids that aren't watched by them.
Yeah, great point!
The real tip for growth. Make a lawnmower video. ;-)
HAHAHA, that thing still cracks me up!
TH-camLandia 😂... Up here it's also WinterWonderLandia 🥶
Oh man, I feel for you! We have cold, but it hasn't snowed... yet.
I think everyone one is out to rob me lol.
It's not a conspiracy theory if they really ARE out to get you!
Also, most people ARE trying to rob you, one way or the other.
I want none of it either...F off.... Well of course purple on three doesn't actually say that but I think it sometimes 😅😅😅
Yeah, I get the gist! :D
Buying footlong subs
Oh man, even THOSE are only 11" anymore!
@RoadReality oh well. Important thing is to celebrate the holiday. Happy Hogiefest!
@BobbyMiller3 is that like Toyotathon? It's gonna be a December to Remember!
Lol. #notsponsored , "they gave it to me for free. Ummm, I'm pretty sure that is the definition of sponsored. ;-)
You caught me! 😉 They only gave me the windshield for the one video... I just keep using it because it's THAT GOOD. :D
Okay this is my 10th comment. On this video alone. So you can venmo me the $10 that you owe me...😂 I'm just kidding and having a little fun!
Haha, ten comments?! You must really like my videos! 😄
*AI generated this comment. What do you think of it?
Wait you can buy subs
You can... but I don't recommend it!
I think you do have something on you. Looks like a shirt, almost. / How would you even sell subs? 😅 "I have 5 too many, best sell them to someone in need."
HAHA, yeah, my shirt. And no, I wouldn't give it to anyone... I sorta need it :D

@@RoadReality Selling a channel I can understand. It would be more beneficial than losing to a hostile takeover.
