@@7un05 yea yea sounds wicked, I’m hoping to reach Australia sometime next year.

Man, I can so relate to incompetent craftsmen here in the US as well. It seems to be a lack of care and passion or something in this day and age.

It’s sooo hard to find a reputable mechanic. I found that outside of Europe there were far more skilled individuals, perhaps it’s a generational thing. Which is fizzling out in privileged economies…

Very good story 👍

Forgot to mention when you altered the hedon helmet I almost cringed (not because of you but because I own a 1.0 as well and know how much they cost. Also, I'm so happy they updated them with the 2.0 allow audio devices.

Haha yeah this is the original 1.0 Racer. You know I saw it in a window display in Lisbon and at the time was the best looking helmet I’ve ever seen. When in London I tried it on in a shop and made a very expensive birthday present to myself. Still the comfiest helmet now 7 years later. How is yours holding up?

@eddiertw I've had my stable black one for about 5 years now, though full disclosure it was purchased during their annual sample sale, originally like $900 but I got it for $600. Comfort is a 10/10, love the look as well. I've had to replace the visor once as a hinge cracked. The only other issue is that going anything above 60mph (which is legal on the hwy here) I get a bit of sound/whistles. Otherwise it'd super solid. I likely buy a 2.0 for my next birthday.

@@FunWithAJ Yes spot on, super comfy and very quiet - but yes weird whistle at high speeds, used to it now as I ride with earplugs.

Im loving this series and format. 🤌

Moved the brake caliber. I didn’t see that coming. Why didn’t Triumph think of that?

@@clayfarnet970 I actually don’t know. It’s a very obvious design flaw. I used a bracket from Free Spirits to get that remounted.

Another great one! Keep them coming.

Most relaxing and interesting video series in a long time! Is there a way you can share your Notion tables as a template? I would love to keep track of my spendings, tasks and weight like you do.

All in all, crashes and faulty painters included, what was the cost of everything as you left London?

Your exhaust wont make any good power without a link pipe. Check out Ultimate Twin Performance. They can make you an exhaust that will give the best power.
