Keep doing what you do. Sharing ride experiences, a bit of local tourism, your expereiences with your dealer, any mods you carry out, your opinions on the bike, what tyres/accessories you fit next, and so on - all of which you have been doing. If you did another day at the ride school you could include a video about that (if the provider was OK with it). But I gather the issue is the need to keep generating 'content' for KZitem, who sounds like a fairly merciless master! Like you keep coming up with stand-out videos, or disappear into obscurity. I found a funny English Vlogger on here recently - Erroll somebody, but his videos had never appeared on my computer before that one. He also has a white Transalp. Ben Dork-in the-Road has a fairly illuminating video on all this KZitem stuff, and its ruthless nature. I had thought to do some videos myself with the new bike, but it all sounded a bit hard in the end. One camera not enough, the expectation to add a new video every week, the need to come up with eye-catching titles so people would watch them, and so on. It's all about the 'hits'. Pavlin (Motorcycle Adventures) whose work I enjoy, appears to spend a lot of his life either riding across Russia, or making videos now, and I decided I would rather just ride. Not across Russia, although eastern Europe looks rather nice, as we get more videos from the former Yugoslavic states, Poland, Bulgaria, Rumania and so on. I guess an international ride is another area you could make videos on. Italy, the south of France and the like. Many lovely and exotic places within a day's ride of the UK. Ireland another scenic destination I have enjoyed travelling in, and not far from you. But my experience (over 60 years riding, and 50 years professional work on bikes) make my 'life experience' unusual for this place. As a more recent new rider, you are probably more typical of those who come on here looking for some guidance, or information from someone who has already bought the model in question. Having such a long riding history probably makes me see these things differently to those who are more recently getting into motorcycles, and these are likely to be the ones buying this particular model. So my views are probably not as suited to the typical inquirer on here as yours. I am more about removing stuff from my bike, and lightening it, rather than adding a tall screen, top box, crash bars, quickshifter or the like! And I am not 6' 3", only a little over 5' 9", so the thing fits me pretty well as is. Just a bit large and heavy to shift around, compared to my old air-cooled ADV bike. So yes - you can call me old-fashioned... But, like you, I have been pleasantly surprised by the Transalp, which I bought with reservations. It is better than it first appears, and improves as you go. It 'grows on you'. Mine has smoothed out a lot in 6,500 kms, and is well suited to my elderly/retired status. Here in South Australia we get to ride year-round - lucky us. I'll be out on mine again shortly. I ride most days, with three bikes registered, and there's another sunny day out there! So keep doing it as you have been. You have a pleasant delivery, and sound fairly thoughtful in your comments, so if you go on with it, the numbers will come. But you are at a point which I anticipated: what to present when the bike is no longer new, or the latest thing, and 'the circus has moved on'. Generating content for its own sake not something I wanted to get caught up in, even though I have spare time nowadays. But if having a Vlog site encourages you to get out on your bike more, or take it to different countries, that is a good thing. A bit hard to generate content in winter in the north of England though. Summer in Italy (or Australia) much nicer... 😊

Thank you very much for this. It does get difficult to get out riding here at this time of year. It’s either raining, windy or there is too much salt and grit on the roads 😂 I will of course, continue to keep making content. I have a few ideas, but it is nice to know what others want to see and would find useful. I would love to post more regularly, but I don’t have loads of free time. So I want to make sure the time I spend making videos isn’t wasted on junk no one wants to see 😂 I too have found things get better and more smooth as the bike is used more and more. I have just clicked 3100 miles and the bike is very smooth. I absolutely love it. I have very little to complain about with the Transalp 😊 Your riding experience sounds huge, it’s great to hear your thoughts on what you like and prefer! 😊 Thanks again for the comment. I really appreciate your help and feedback!

Well done on passing your test! 😊 What bike did you learn on? It’s a fantastic bike, certainly worth a test ride. I don’t really have anything bad to say about it to be honest. If I’m being picky it is missing an ambient temperature reading and a fuel range reading… but that is me being very picky 😊

Uk TET can be done in sections if time is an issue, NC500 if a bit longer available. John o groats to lands end on B roads. Go from Hull to Rotterdam for a quick euro dash over a long weekend, or a few weeks! Ireland has Munster vales and the north coast WAW is stunning and quieter than the busy west coast.

The NC500 is a brilliant route and is certainly one I would love to do again. I have done it in my van, but not on a bike. What do you ride? 😊
