What a Plonker

[dern]

I don't mind TMF, I don't think he pretends to be something he isn't. It's not my favourite channel but I watch a fair few of his vids, and for a Youtuber he isn't afraid to speak his mind about a bike if he doesn't gel with it. I suspect being a later in life/born again his journey is similar to a lot of other current bikers.

Lamb Chop. Yeah, not sure what it is but can't click with him.

Freddy Dobbs. I really like him, he's kind of Tim nice but dim character works and he does some interesting stuff and his clueless-ness makes for good viewing.

Can’t stand 44 teeth any more. I used to like them but they seem to be on a race for the bottom, seemingly wanting to dumb it down as far as they can. Copying top gear I guess. Chris’s video on the 990 race he did without Alastair was good but Alastair’s ‘style’ makes me cringe. Mossy and Boothy are always worth watching.

The latest 44T at the TT with Boothy was good. Mainly to see Boothy set his demons at rest. Don't think I'd have ridden like that after losing a leg last time but guess that's what sets TT racers apart.

I like BikeWorld a lot too. Chris seems a really decent bloke and Chad pops up too occasionally.

Just watched the TT video. Boothy is a brave bloke and no mistake. Milky's a star too.

I really like Chris' videos.

The UK Youtubers that I like are Bikeworld,Tim Rodie,Rides Motorbikes,Neeveseybikes,Mark Pulling & Moto Bob.
Of the rest,I listen to TMF doing his monthly MCN round up.Freddie Dobbs Morocco trip the other year was good to watch.Ths fact that someone so incompetent can get to Morocco & almost home was inspiring.I've never got 44 Teeth,the BBB series had so much potential but they come across as really childish/ irritating.I've watched a few LCR video's but they're not for me.

TMF really is clueless. He'd have done better to stop yapping and just let Millyard get on with it. TMF doesn't even know how to remove the tank, which is absolutely the first thing you ever do when working on most bikes.

Well he's a pilot...There's a reason they aren't allowed to work on aircraft...

As i said earlier, he's a modern biker.

Biker = mechanic hasn't been true for over 30 years or more.

He's no mechanic, but he's making a decent living from people clicking on his videos.

He's even got people posting his videos on other websites.

He finally got to ride it, lost a side cover, went back to get it & as he pulled up just past it a car had to swerve around him & ran it over.

LMFAO!!

just ffwd to 17min, you can hear the car hit it at 17.35.

[mangocrazy]

And you've just given him more hits on his YouTube channel...

Guilty as charged M'lud. I know how to, but have never actually removed a tank. Or done most other technical stuff on a bike.

I used to adjust the points on a bike back in 1963, and I have changed the oil and lubed a chain since then, but that is my limit.

I don't claim to be a mechanic, I just ride the damn thing.

Check out the wear pattern on that front brake.... something else the "restoration specialist" fucked up.
