They did his character wrong: first the way he "betrayed" Sheridan. Then how he ran away. As a member of the Religious Caste he probably knew all about atonement for wrongs. And it was all because they foreshadowed him not being around in 20 years in a season 4 episode.

This is what made B5 so awesome.

Almost as good as his adventure with Londo. Shame what happened to him in season 5.

My late husband Tim would have loved Babylon 5, and especially this episode because he loved motorcycles!

I love how these subplot stories were weaved into the timeframes and acutally added additional character depth and relationship revelation. Lanier didn't quite understand how assembling a relic that in now way could be used where it was in the time presented would be a pleasurable thing. But Garibaldi provided the example of the satisfaction that comes from taking desperate parts learning old things and accomplishing a seemingly impossible but useless task just for the sake of doing it. Lanier finally understood how he robbed this at the end but the "adjustment' was worth it. Often, the journey is the destination. There's a lot of subtle meaning in this little tidbit.

They also totally retconned the final standoff - Garibaldi told Sinclair to get out and that he had rigged the fusion reactor; now Garibaldi and Sinclair were at the last stand, and Sheridan goes to rig the fusion reactor?

@@Excalibur01 what? I didn't see it, F*CK

Later seasons lacked the little character moments like this!

Lennier learned Japanese with ease :) Love that character!

I wonder if this was product placement for Kawasaki? They sure did go into the bike specs in detail. lol

I love this story.

Theory: If Lennier had ridden this bike, Delenn would have chosen him over Sheridan.

Lennir then went on to form the first motorcycle club on minbar. Called, The boneheads!

5:03 Woo Hoo? Lenier was as big a weeb as he was a troll :p Character had his issues but so much of his writing was fantastic.

I like how they both have similar head designs despite being two different species I like to imagine the pattern for the non-human is it's species equivalent of going bald

In the B5 universe, the last gasoline-powered motorcycle was built in 2135. With the popularity of lithium-ion battery powered vehicles on the rise, that prediction may not be that far off.

I once owned a ZX-10 (forerunner to this beauty). And not a Minbari in sight...I think. BTW - I FAR prefer the color scheme on the ZX-11. ☮

Babylon 5 generates "gravity" by the station spinning. Unless those elevator shafts follow the curve of the station, as soon as they start moving up or down, the people inside should start floating.

I had forgotten about this side story. Wonder what other thing I've yet to rediscover.

Looks like Michael is having fun

That bike probably has more power then a star fury

0:43 A Vehicle?? Time to wage the second great Minbari War.

3:10 "Domo arigato", because obviously he's gone so hard into this he's learned japanese as well

@5:05 And then they both died in a horrific motorcycle crash. It was such a trope too. A woman with a babycart was crossing the hallway in Green 3 and they tried to dodge them at over 300Kph. The Funerals will be held next week at 1500 hours. As per Garabaldi' last wishes in his will, he dictates his wake be "Resplendent with all the foods of his homeland." So expect a lot of Gabagool.

A real bike brought back to life in that era? Life is good.

Ok that was cute. Sorta like a father and son moment

I wish this bike came back. Maybe them just riding inn the background for funsies or Garibaldi using it to get on scene quickly.

I wish I has a friend like Lennier

Doumo Arigato! I just noticed that!! XD

i now know why Lennier asked Sheridan "woohoo" later in the series. He 1st hear the term here while riding a bike (near end of the video)....next time he hears it Sheridan is with delenn.... he's like where's the bike :P
