Weem's Vlogs

The Loan Bike

June 6, 2014 /

The Fireweem needed to be taken in for it’s annual nipple greasing, so I booked in with Steve Jordan Motorcycles over in Great Bookham.

As the FireWeem was going to be in for most of the day and I had stuff to do, I was given one of their loan bikes.

SJM are a small independent bike shop, so their loaner is nothing fancy, but it gets the job done …… just about.

    Question from someone here in the states. I noticed on the road a few times that the white lines are all zigzagy. like at 4:11 What are those about? Are they like that whenever approaching a light or were the painters SUPER drunk that day? lol Serious question though.

    I ride a Bmw Gs in the uk but recently went to Fuerteventura for a couple of weeks & hired a Suzuki 500 & because the speed limit is a LOT slower + it was 35centigrade the “little un” was a refreshing change, Glad to see you enjoyed your adventure on that one. Ride Safe

    I wouldn’t say you where an aggressive rider more like assertive, It does you good now and again to get onto that sort of bike, makes you love your bike even more, good video buddy, RSMF.

    I don’t know how I would feel riding a bike like that, I prefer sports bikes, that said, its a higher cc than mine so I’d be grateful for a blast on something a little bigger 🙂

    The difference between the two bikes is like the difference between a large kit kat and a small kit kat.To work the brakes the gs needs 4 fingers and the blade needs 2 fingers.Riding on the motorway with no wind noise, what’s your secret weem?

    So when are you trading the ‘blade in?Suzuki don’t still make the GS do they? I can’t think of a bike they do instead now?

    Like all good Honda owners did you give it a good polish before handing it back? or did it just make you feel dirty touching a suzuki?

    Whoops posted twice.

    I’m suprised they didn’t give you a nc750.

    I hate having sit up bikes now, I don’t feel safe.

    Are you coming on our Newmarket ride?

    I’ve been fortunate enough to have worked at Morgan for a week and have a ride in a three wheeler, they’re brilliant at drifting!

    How was the GS500? I’m thinking of getting one when I pass my A2 (Turn 19 in September) and it seems like a nice easy bike to learn to ride with more power. Plus Regular Car Reviews video on it was hilarious, which somehow makes me want one!
