Glad to see you back

Hi guys hope you are well. Great bikes, great run. I swear i could smell the salty air just as you stepped onto the wet sand. Holiday homes are a scourge. Affluent folk spend their pocket money, elevate the house prices, locals can't afford the house prices, owners live in them for a few weeks a year. Young folk need to move away to get housing. Communities die. Land ownership needs changing. Thanks for sharing. Stay safe and keep up the good work.

I'm interested in sports touring bikes and the GSXS1000GT+ is on my radar. I was waiting for the Megalodon to snack on those surfers😆😺

You’re a wrongun ! Jam first then cream 🤦🏼‍♂️😂 Another great video though, thanks for sharing your adventures with us 😊

Thank you ever so much dear Kate for showing us your holiday you are such a lovely fun companion i almost felt i was there with you around those country lanes,best wishes Lance

Great Video and those Suzuki's sounded great, Loved how Mike let his true northern routes show without wanting to pay £4.00 haha!

Great vid. We had the pleasure to stay at Bikers B&B in Barripper. Kath an Phil are lovely people. Shame they are not opening again, but understandable. Wish them all well.

Thanks for taking me on this ride through a beautiful part of the UK.👍👍

Thanks Kate, best 30 minutes of the week.

Great video Kate.Good to see you back on KZread.

Great you guys had some fun there… fantastic to see you producing content again. Keep doing it at a pace you enjoy, and for the reasons you want to do it. Roll on summer and warmer weather though! 🍻 👍👍

Scones... when in Cornwall the jam goes on first, when in Devon the cream goes on first ......apparently

Ooh! Those roads look scary dirty! Had a tractor or two on them I think. Thanks for your channel and it's great content 👍

I nearly lost the laptop when i glimpsed the first shot of the B&b- i was fortunate enough on several occasions to have used Phil and Kath's place before; such a great place and location, shame the business has been wound up. The coast road from St.Ives to Lands End is an absolute gem of a road and that Suzuki looks like a genuine contender in the market. Only time will tell if it can make a serious dent in the 2021 sales of the Ninja 1000SX. keep up the good work and ride safe.

What a great trip and on fantastic new motorcycles too!

Another great adventure with Kate and Mike. I have never been down that way on a bike, it looks great. Love your phrase "Job is s carrot" made me laugh

Enjoyed the video. Tough cookies to be out on bikes this time of year. Keep it going.

Thanks for taking me for a ride to my home town. I was born and grew up in Porthleven, but moved away to the other side of the River Tamar to work, aged 22. I am 51 now, but still get back there regularly to visit family. You nearly rode past my old family home.❤️

Can’t wait for the touring season to start!BTB honest,I,ll hopefully do some winter tours too!Thanks for the inspiration!🙂👍

Great video again Kate. It brought back memories of the year's i spent down there. Some of those hills on the coastal roads are bit extreme especially if you head up the North coast towards Tintagel.....there's a little village off the A39 called Crackington Haven where it feels like your riding off a cliff. 😂 Those Suzuki's are very underrated....Awesome engine and great sound from a standard exhaust. Keep up the great work.. looking forward to seeing the next episode. 👌😊

Great video🐊 looks as though you both had a good time. I was in Cornwall in July. Your video brought back some good memories. Ride safe guys.

That northern accent❤️❤️ 😂😂 Keep the vids coming Kate👍

Really enjoyed this one Kate and Mike. I'm an expat Cornishman-lived in Oz since 1988. Have traveled back a few times with my wife and lads (now Men). Kernow is is still big in my heart and I am proud to be Cornish-born and a Celt. Those Oggies at your Aunts looked proper! When I was a young fella I worked with a company that would deliver Milk (in bottles-guess my age) and Newspapers across the moors and to the coast. A couple of the 'roads' (Lanes/No Friggin' Room) you rode were on my rounds. I recall a head-on crash with some 'emmet' (foreigner) in a Jaguar. The coffee I had in a cup ended up with much more full cream milk than was necessary-and a good scattering of glass just to add to the flavour! The Van was white inside and out-as was the driver and me (Haha). I'm glad Mike said 'Get Fu#$ed' to the Parking Fee at Lands End. It's twats like the owner of the 'land' there that have deprived the Cornish of their rights to be in their own Country. You could have parked outside the 'gates' and walked in-they can't stop you doing that. The comment you made about people buying property in Cornwall is a very sore point-it has meant that the price-hiking has forced locals out of the possibility of buying. It has always been a serious issue. One of the reasons I left Kernow was because I could not make an income relative to living-and forget buying property-even back in the eighties. The Gixers rode well. On a silly note-Personally, I love your accent-even more when you are trying to pronounce Cornish names. I own an S100RR M-every time I ride it I hear your voice (with accent) in my head-"this auto-blipper is so smooth"! Sorry for the essay...

Looks like a great ride! Truly enjoyable to watch

Yet another great vlog keep it up can’t wait for the rest of the Scotland vlogs

Love your Manchester accent

Great vid but it's butter,jam then cream for me.🏍

Nice video. Looked relaxing. Hope you’re feeling well chilled and taking it easy. Take care 😎😎

Love Porthleven Leven where you went at the end of the vid, amazing in the summer great sea views and enough cafe’s to sink a battle ship 😂 the bikes weren’t bad either 😜

Finished watching your videos Scotland trip Kate enjoyed that now watching your trip down Cornwall on the Suzuki 1000 s looking forward to seeing it tanks Kate for sharing your videos class😄👍

I used to Snorkel around St Michaels Mount all the time, most beautiful place to be in my opinion. I was lucky to be able to live in Cornwall, definitely going back

You know you are rather English. Every time you speak, it brings to mind a little speech from Shakespeare, Midsommer Night's Dream or Henry VI or something. Must be the syntax, or vocab. Very Elizabethan.

Yet another lovely video from Kate and her partner in crime - showing of all those lovely roads of the area. What a nice bike to ride - just not my cup of tea since i prefer more GS like bikes or similar due to the forward sitting position on these naked bikes. But my colleague has a 750 GSX with a special exhaust at it sounds so aggressive and it also has this reving sound that sounds amazing. Can't wait to start riding again - it's full winter here in Norway and I'm not a winter driver on two wheels. Nice roadtrip 😍

Great video,love the new Suzuki sat on one at the NEC yesterday very comfortable like my bandit. The head light isn’t the prettiest but when your on it you can’t see it,and as long as it’s better than my Bandits it’s a winner.

Hi Kate, Thoroughly enjoyed you Cornwall expedition, it looked like you and Mike had a good run on the GXSR's! Looking forward to your next post, all the best to you, ride safe... Annie from Oz, 🇦🇺🏍💨✌

No GSXR's here just the more friendly GSX-S... doing this on a gixxer would be much less enjoyable. Still a bit sporty for me anyway.

Nice. Took my new NC750x DCT for a tour around Devon & Cornwall for 5 days in October. Did all the nice bits, national parks etc. 650 miles. Good stayed in the Quality Inn Torquay, good value and nice food in the Beefeater next door. Deals available with breakfast/dinner deals as well. Suit Northern budgets, he he.......

I feel like I've been bitten by the tsetse fly ,brilliant !!!!!great video shame about the muddy roads .

Dang Kate, I got a head ache from you slapp'n me in the forehead! Just kidding from when you turn the go-pro off. hehehe Nice for taking us along and the Suzi's looked like a bunch of fun. I'm surprised that there was room for Mike to tie the bikes down in the van.

That’s it, I’m done watching username Kate…. Jam first then cream FFS!!!

Mike's crash helmet in black matched to the mask the curly haired child on Outnumbered had that changed your voice. Make it sound like Darth's voice🤗. Not paying parking for bixe, good for him. Also see Uncle Longbeard, he won't either.

Great video Kate 👍👍

Another good video Kate

I love Cornwall and try to get there most years. I've got two and possibly a third trip there in 2022 but none on the bike sadly. Hopefully a Wales ride will make up for that. Thanks Kate, you put a few miles down on that ride in chilly conditions.

great vid. last time i was down there was in the early 90s in a vw type 2. hopefully this summer on my first bike, a street twin. did my theory today but didnt get the result. the system was down so have to wait a week for the result!

Another top film. Nice round Cornwall. I will look forward to doing some of that next year as my wife’s sister has just bought a house down there. Free visits and lots of roads to explore 😮😘😘

Quite a few times I've seen you out on the GSXS.. Think it's one of your favourites.. having the previous model it to was fast, light and nimble. The new one does look awesome.. I think it has to be in blue..

👍👍👌👌 love Cornwall

Lovely video.

Hi Kate looks like you have fun even in the winters months still guy's. nice ride out have you hade a go of a Suzuki GS'R 750 or svf gladius, BEEN RIDEING SFV FOR 6 YEAR'S NOW Suzuki is so simple to get along with 😁 love the bolgs, 🇬🇧👀🏍️💨

I like your van, we don’t have much like that here in Canada.

Not sure about the bikes 🤔. Sailed around Cornwall a few times and loved it but some of the roads looked a bit unpleasant 🙄 Stay safe guys and keep the videos coming 👍

Being from Devon I shouldn't admit it but Cornwall is great. Next time though you should pop into Dorothy's Speed shop in North Devon & join myself & Nathan Millward for a brew.

Great video as always. I love Cornwall roads really lovely views. Me and a friend went not that long ago to lands end paid £2 each per bike then they try and charge again for parking inside which we ignored 🤫. Got down to the sign and they wanted more money for a picture with it 🤔🤦‍♂️. Not for me thank you absolute rip off, mike was right to turn round or he would of kicked right off at the prices if £2 nearly pushed him over the edge 🤣.

Kate, on your next ride, could you explain the weird pavement markings used in the UK? Like the squiggly lines. Unusual ones also used in the Netherlands also It's a dry and not so warm 10.8 F this morning with 6.7 F as overnight low.

Great videos Kate. What sort of video equipment and edit to do what you do. Had GoPro in the past. Really good quality. Any advice welcome thanks..

Mint!

I have to say that those glasses you are wearing suits you well.....😉

Good food in the old Quay house 👍

I know you test road the GSXS 1K when it came out but now you had your butt on it for couple of days what do you think of it. I miss my GSXR 1K. I miss the speed, the handling, and the fun you can have passing everything in sight. Don't get me wrong I love my HD SGS and my RE Continental GT but I need something else and the GSXS is on the radar.

What's the headlamp performance like in the dark? The Missenden Flyer tests try to show headlamp performance.
