Tuesday at Dobbs'

Thanks to Sizzapp for sponsoring this week's podcast episode! The motorcycle and car tracker and rider's/driver's mate. www.sizzapp.com After having a question from a listener of the channel that I'd never had before, I decided to give it my best shot to answer. Buying a motorcycle from the year you're born; is it sensible, is it a solid financial investment, and is there actually a bike that you...

For all of your motorcycle needs, check out the one stop shop that is www.xlmoto.eu With more and more frequent noise about plans for vehicles to be taxed on a per mile basis (regardless of whether electric, diesel or petrol), I discuss what this means for electric vehicles. And is it still sensible to look at a bike such as the Ducati 9...

I take a look at desirable workhorse of a motorcycle; the generation one Honda Hornet CB900. These bikes have often covered big distances, are not garage queens, but are starting to look like extremely good investments with their rugged build quality and reliability. And I see what type of Harley Davidson Sportster 1200s are available for around £5,000. And I check the specs of a bike I'm unspeaka...

I take a look at the 750cc Honda Africa Twin 750 (around the year 2000) to see if this could be a solid investment. And I look into used Harley Davidson Softail Deluxes in the US, and find a very very tempting offer! I also compare prices in warm states (Florida), compared to cold states New York, Pennsylvania etc, to see if bargains can be found in the colder states. And does it matter where your...

My motorcycle tracker and riders mate of choice, with no monthly subscription. www.sizzapp.com I take a look at a few motorcycles that I think (or more relevantly- a couple of listeners think) will be future classics in the not too distant future. All of these bikes are still affordable, but are juuust starting to increase in value. If...

Thanks to XLMOTO for sponsoring this week's podcast episode! For all things motorcycle related- this is your one stop shop. Check out one of my current picks- the Ride and Sons Arrow jacket .

Find me on: www.yout...

I take a look at the issues around Moto Guzzi ownership, the reasons why they don't sell in big numbers in America, and general feedback from owners.

And I share some recent news that the UK government may be looking at banning private vehicle usage in cities.

After seeing how strict Spain are with any kind of motorcycle customisation, it got me thinking- is it just a matter of time before the UK follows suit? And I find three superb investment motorcycles that I believe won't depreciate any more, and prices may even start to rise! Thanks to Sizzapp for sponsoring this week's episode! https://www.sizzapp.com Find me on: www.youtube.com/c/freddiedobbs ww...

I compare motorcycle fuel economy to that of normal every day cars and try to understand why they're not more economical. And I'm tipped off on a game changing electric motorcycle from Maeving.

Thank you to Sizzapp for sponsoring this week's podcast episode. A vehicle tracker with no monthly costs and can be setup in minutes. It's not cheap getting into motorbiking. Passing your test is expensive, motorbikes are often expensive, and riding gear is bib big money too! So I've found a £300 solution for anyone who's passed their test and only has £300 cash to buy a motorbike and full outfit....

I look into whether it's still sensible to spend big money on petrol powered motorbikes, with the looming ban on internal combustion engines coming. And I go through the results of Yamaha owners' thoughts on their bikes. I also share some insight from Ducati owners, as well as find the ultimate tourer for under £5,000! Thanks to XLMOTO for sponsoring this week's episode www.xlmoto.co.uk Find me on...

I chat about my recent four days with the Harley Davidson Pan America, and I look at a budget alternative. I'm amazed to find out how much Suzuki Bandits have gone up in value... And I discuss pillion comfort! www.freddiedobbs.com www.youtube.com/c/freddiedobbs www.instagram.com/dob/bs

I give my weekly motorcycle roundup, the expanding ULEZ (ultra low emissions zone in London), as well as my recent time spent on a Ducati Monster- my first ever ride on a Ducati! And I look into whether I made the right choice eight years ago when I bought a Triumph Speed Triple over a Buell. And I look into a 2018 parts bin special Suzuki that can be found now for around £4,000! Find me on: www.f...

I look at the costs of a Royal enfield Meteor and the pure joy of cheap biking. And a bike I saw today and was blown away by- the Suzuki Intruder. This is a bike that can stand up to Harley in the looks and presence departments! And I get a superb insight from a policeman on motorcycle trackers, and superb value alternatives! www.freddiedobbs.com www.youtube.com/c/freddiedobbs www.instagram.com/do...

I look into an often forgotten (in the Europe, at least!) motorcycle brand; Victory Motorcycles! And does a Suzuki RG 500 Gamma make sense as an investment proposition, and where can I find the cheapest ones?

I recently did a survey with the hope of finding out if Ducatis are a good used purchase. I asked; Would you class your Ducati as reliable?, and "Would you buy another Ducati?". I had over 500 responses, and the results were eye opening! I look into the Benelli TNT- this seems to be a brilliant mode of transport; fun and rock bottom prices. I then take a look at Ural motorcycles and share some int...

I chat about my first week riding in Tenerife, and a scary experience I had with brake fade riding down a mountain! And I look at the new Kawasaki Z900RS- a bike that'll rival the Triumph Trident and Royal Enfield Interceptor. I discuss rider safety; is it really necessary to wear full gear if just going to the shops at 30mph- for example? And finally, I take a closer look at a Ducati that's just...

I go through some of your thoughts about Harley Davidson and Harley riders- some extremely insightful input about how Harley riders see other bikers, and about how other bikers view Harley riders. And I look at a Honda cruiser motorcycle that you've almost certainly never have come across, but looks superb and is rated 5/5 by owners!

I pull together the final list of top 15 highest mileage motorcycles that you've kindly sent in. Some of the results were quite eye opening! There's a new Royal Enfield coming to showrooms in Europe in February 2021, and I gain a new found respect for BMW build quality. And I take a look at how much a Harley Davidson Road King would cost me per month. Find me on: www.freddiedobbs.com www.instagram...

I take a look at a country that makes vehicles that are more robust and more reliable than any other! And I get a glimpse into motorbiking in London in the 1970's. And finally, I share some cool used motorbike options! I hope you enjoy, and happy listening:) Find me on: www.freddiedobbs.com www.instagram.com/dob.bs www.youtube.com/c/freddiedobbs

I look into the Yamaha Mt-01; a beast of a bike that never had huge sales success, but has been slowly going up in value in recent years! And Japan's answer to the European modern classics; the highly desirable Kawasaki Z900RS. And of course a weekly roundup and general motorbike related chat! I hope you enjoy!:) www.youtube.com/c/freddiedobbs www.instagram.com/dob.bs www.freddiedobbs.com
