My first bike was an 86 Savage, bought it in '93, can't believe that was almost 30 years ago. Buying motorcycles back then was a bit different than today - no youtube, facebook market place, craigslist, websites, or internet. Just newspaper ads, calling people and talking to them, getting directions from a map book, and hoping for the best. I've never liked the big bikes, give me a light and nimble bike over a heavy powerful bike any day. My Second bike was a 94 virago 535, then 2001 Honda Sabre 1100, 2007 Vulcan 900, 2011 Triumph Bonneville T100, and now looking to get a Yamaha Bolt - that's what brought me to your channel - thanks for the videos, I'm a new subscriber.
Thank you dude! I’m bummed that TH-cam posted it without me being able to do all the title thumb and tags but there’s always the next video 🤷♂️ I’m just happy you noticed that 😂
Hey quick question what tyres would you recommend for the Yamaha bolt? Preferably after something that isn't afraid of the wet and is decent in the turns. Not particularly fussed about mileage just would prefer grip
Honestly I use a lot of used tires because of the burnouts. For sticky I’d say shinko, they are cheap but very grippy. Only real recommendation I have is to go from a 100-90 19 on the front to a 110-90 19. It’s wider and way better got grip

The 80's montage with the eagle @6:50 is the cherry on top.

@@Tardy_Productions awesome ok thanks dude 🤟
Electrical issues scare me. I respect those able to fix the forbidden spaghetti
Hahahha dude it was a nightmare to try and figure out
I would rather bleed brakes for hours than deal with an electrical issue 😖
Not a joke! Wiring is by far my least favorite part of motorcycles
