Yellow and blue work I reckon.. Think it was Suzukis old racing colours back in the day.. I may be wrong though..👍

This reminded me of that time you taught me about road positioning and awareness of your surroundings. You should make some little bike riding tutorials for learners. ❤

You might ave a point there Anna…Your always welcome to come out on the bike for a ride round.. You’ll get on with the suzuki a lot better than you did the KTM 😄❤️

Pig Town magic roundabout what a place 😅

I worked on a large timber frame job not far from that roundabout a few years ago and dreaded each Monday as I travelled down to the job, never got to grips with it, but having a white van just went for it🤣🙄👍

Only us swindonions ( pigdonions) understand the magic roundabout, i think it's very clever but im a worzel! I like these videos motorbikes around wiltshire great. Maybe im wrong but im sure i know you from a long time ago when i worked at george whites motorbike shop at manchester road, i spent most of my time there out the back helping bob rebiuld old relicks out of bits from micky and buggys bike scrap yard ( two wheel brakers) im sure i saw you around there quite allot, anyway looking forward to seeing you rideing round wiltshire some more, cheers for the videos.

I feel like I'm one of 10 Americans that understands the roundxabout. We don't have many, but it seems like every time I come to one, everyone else is stopped dead in their tracks, with confusion. It's hilarious and sad.

Hi Dickie i like your new bike its very nice ride safe 🏕️

You got a thing about Yellow...! On that note, I'd considered the TRK looked very much the same as Vstrom off the block, more than CB500X. Days out with Sandy will be interesting on comparison with the Vstrom's. Until then, stay safe. Cheers Davey

My son is looking at a Vstrom as a result of your earlier videos, replacement for an old Honda Deauville 650. That Magic roundabout looks like a nightmare, I bet Friday evening rush hour is good fun...👍

I’m really surprised at just how good the 800 is.. It’ll handle the dirt really well but with the added bonus of being a fantastic road bike.. Brilliant engine too..👍

Nice one Dickie, now give your gopro's lens a good clean and the video will be even more clear:) Also if you can stretch to it get a wireless mic with wind jammer for when your off the bike. On bike audio was very good

Didn’t even know you could get that stuff . Audio was a bit hit and miss..😂.. Still learning..Thanks for the advise Sandy 👍

Trying to follow SatNav instructions on that 'roundabout' would be a nightmare 😵‍💫. Looks like a good bike, if I was looking for an adventure bike now I'd consider one of these but I've reached that age when you start to shrink, so being a shortar$e already I've got no spare inches left! Comparing a Harley to a Suzuki😲, dangerous territory Dickie!

The magic roundabout looks a mess to me, a little confusing...I am sure it could have been designed easier and better than that?! It is a great bike, seen Sandys close up, smart looking too. I hope you are enjoying my books? Be well

That’s really kind of you John.. Still learning and making a few mistakes at the moment 😄.. Going to have to sort that old flathead out that’s on my bench.. It’s been there far to long 😄

Nice one, Sir Dickie, or is it Lord Dickie? As a (rival) Oxonian I was introduced to the magic roundabout thus: eyeball the exit you want, look neither left nor right, and head straight for it with determination. Later, was that the road towards Avebury? What a fabulous bike road that is.

@@DickieMintCycles there are some cracking bends on that road and no sneaky off-camber... woohoo!

Very interesting review of the Suzuki, mate of mine has a T7 and loves it, I was going to possibly get one too as we do a lot of green lanes but this Suzuki has caught my eye. Any chance you could do a review or share your opinion based on how good it is off road? Better still come over to wales 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 and show us 👍😁

Yep.. Sorry the audio was crap ..need to buy some wind muffler things apparently 😄.. Wasn’t a proper review really..The footage of lane/trail went into hyper mode for whatever reason so lost most of it …But thanks for watching it .. I’ll get onto Salisbury Plain at some point in the future and do a proper one..Love the bike very good on road and off.. The suspension is great considering the price of the bike..The Aussies have taken to em and are stripping them out for proper rally stuff.. They like the air filter apparently 😄..

Hi Steve.. The Kawasaki 650 Vulcan is worth a look.. Nice and low with a good tried and tested motor that Kawasaki use in a few of their models..👍
