Despite all the calls to not ride a death machine, riding remains one of the most satisfying experiences. You remember every little quirk of your locals roads and the changes in temperature and smells really give some connection to moving yourself from A to B.

That quote from Miranda resonated so much. I haven't rode for about 5 years. Imagine how crazy I am!

[TheMotoShaman]

I feel this! Rider for over 20 years, and I will do it until I can’t anymore.

There's this point in riding when you just flow state you and the bike and the road become all melted into one and there's nothing but scenery and smell and sound and it's love and loud and lost. Lost to the passing of time. Try it.❤

One of my best friends just died on his, be careful for your loved ones

I’ve watched the full version of this video close to 15 times.

Have you fixed the 650 yet, Van?

[Tomfoolery]

Thanks for helping me convince the wife to let me get one

[egnate]

Why'd this shit make me tear up 😂🏁

[AlexanderRodriguez-nikt]

I feel the same way riding DYI electric bike.

[TheGreatZachary]

DUDE I was thinking about getting one of these Husqvarna’s what do you think of it?

[Agerian]

I love the idea of having a motorcycle but I work in insurance and see the deadly consequences and risks everyday. I have settled for a bicycle and that gets me most of the way there

[TaylorWashburn]

First time I’ve ever heard someone call a motorcycle “redneck” 🤣

[A_barrel]

I strongly desire a motorcycle, but after a few videos I want to try paramotor

[retrosniping]

I mean, I think any experienced motorcyclist would agree. Nothing new here

[ClamshellOSRS]

Did you just read a book titled “how to be a hipster and fart sommelier” and decide to make it your life?
