Sorry to hear about your discriminatory rules against small but over 50cc bikes in NZ. Bikes in most of the world where are not too many /like south east Asia aria/, are bit overlooked and strange. We in eastern Europe have exponential taxes for bikes but the insurance is one and the same 50cc or 2000cc .. You pay the same, but it's not that expensive.. 65€ per year. Some parts of central Europe have rules that with car license, you can ride up to 125 after some years .. Otherwise we have M - 50cc from age of 16, A1 - 125cc age 17, A2 from 18 with completed rules for weight and up to 48 hp and full A categories from 21 .. That is why there are tons of bikes around 47 hp

Haha I’ve had about 10 people directly let me know they bought one because of the video. At the time it was a gamble by the dealer that flew me down. There was no guarantee it would get views and Honda themselves didn’t bankroll it. So a huge thanks to them at the time. But they’ve since dropped Honda and been bought out and renamed so it’s not even a positive return for them these days.

To me, it seems like your channel has two kinds of content, obviously small bike reviews, but there's a travel side to it as well. As much as I love your channel, I've always heard that mixed content channels suffer via algorithm video reccomendations. If you ever do another analytics video, interested to hear your thoughts on having a mixed channel and if you think the algorithm is being fair towards you.
@SmallBikeStuff
@SmallBikeStuff 3 күн бұрын
Very fair comment. The travel videos are a bit few and far between at the moment. They do tend to get better views but they also take a lot more time, effort and $$$ to film. I do categorise them at the point of upload as a ‘travel video’ by category whereas most of the others are uploaded as ‘automotive’. I think suffering from the algorithm is somewhat true but that more comes from retention rates. If I have a long form video and lots of people watch it then those people will get shown other videos of mine that aren’t necessarily long form and they might click out straight away. I could go on for hours but yeah, it is interesting to see how it all works. I did start a second channel for anything and everything in 2022 but I couldn’t run both at once. Small bike stuff took a big hit then and it took 6 months of weekly uploading to get my viewership back so I’ll just keep plodding a long for now and see how we go!

@@SmallBikeStuff Yes, I refer to it as the Kub, and you know exactly why ;) Motorcycle registration in Korea is taxed mostly on engine size, but even for large motorcycles, it doesn't cost too much. I think a liter-plus bike costs maybe $120 a year. There is a one-time fee for purchasing the license plate, but that is only around $15 when you first register it. I believe for motorcycles over a certain amount (high vaue motorcycles) there is a luxury tax when bought new. None of that applies to motorcycles with smaller engine sizes, of course.
@batterybuilding
@batterybuilding 4 күн бұрын
Does that include all taxes? In the U.S. we have registration every 1 or 2 years which is about $50. But most states also have property tax which is based on some arbitrary depreciating value over the years. So having a bunch of old small bikes isn’t too bad.
@SmallBikeStuff
@SmallBikeStuff 4 күн бұрын
Yeah that's including all taxes. I did miss a few pieces of information. Anything bigger than 50cc needs an regular safety inspection - every 6 months for older than the year 2000, 12 months for post 2000, and you get a 3 year inspection exemption on brand new vehicles. This inspection costs ON TOP of the registration fee. If anything fails you have 28 days to rectify the issue for a free reinspection. 50cc is much cheaper - similar car costs. Also we can put the registration 'on hold' if we choose to but it needs to be for a minimum of 3 months.
@RideWithRen
@RideWithRen 4 күн бұрын
@@SmallBikeStuff Every six months! Wow, that would be a hassle if you had a small fleet of vehicles. Here in Korea, there is a four-year exemption for safety inspections from new; after four years you need a safety and emissions inspection every two years. Vehicles made before 2009 are emissions exempt. You're also exempt from emissions if your county has less than 500,000 inhabitants.
