Fuelling up (part 1)

[GarrettGantt]

In what country can you fill up your tank before paying!?!?!?!?

[mustermann008]

@GarrettGantt In Germany it's normal to do it like that ;)

[themeanguyguy]

I just got a black 2012 250 today. It will be delivered tomorrow morning. Now I can re-watch ur vids and learn something!

[prescapt]

Whateeeeever makes you happy

Whateeeeever makes you happy...(8)

Repeat for infinite happiness

[FallOfWar]

did you just fill gas ans then pay?? wtf

[ManOfDeath94]

@FallOfWar its the same in the UK, isnt that the norm?

[gokarter57275]

@ManOfDeath94 in america you'll get shot for that

[FallOfWar]

@ManOfDeath94 well I live in the US, and here we first pay with credit card or go to the cashier. Then your able to pump.

[floflospeed24]

91 ? I haven't see that, in belgium we only have 95 or 98 :p

[vanhoutsdeket]

wtf... i do like 380 to 450km on a full tank... it's 20L... ive got a 600cc and i don't drive creap.. i like to pull on the throttle... you use much full man!

[yellowbananas08]

its annoying because i have a Subaru Inpreza and the highest octane fuel i can find in England is 95, and expensive :(

[PadelManiaZzZz]

@yellowbananas08 dude how much L/100km does impreza make with 95 octane ???!!

[yellowbananas08]

@PadelManiaZzZz about 13l/100km 

[AngryBassist66623]

i thought a ninja 250 could take regular?

[Tavkastaja]

60L for 300km? WTF 20L/100km :D, my car takes 6l/100km :D

[iktus666]

Can you tell me how much did you pay for your ninja?

And can you tell it in €?

[cujootje]

@iktus666 A New Ninja is about 5500 euro's..

some country's a lil less or more..

[iktus666]

You are awesome and I enjoy in every video ;)

Keep up the good work.

[Rohanrk55]

what kinda fuel economy do you get from your bike mate... I have a 350cc bike & i'm getting 42kmpl (100mpg) from me bike & i easily run 550km+ range on my bike with a full tank of petrol 

[darksider63]

@Rohanrk55 yeah, I read that ninja uses like under 4L/100km, and blinky's bike uses around 6L/100km... @blinkycab Are you riding really hardcore, like full throttle or something?

[poopydoopization]

so i guess in some other countries you pay after gas? hahaha oh america.

[cankatoz]

@poopydoopization well, in Turkey you don't even have to get off the car. There is a gas pump attendant in all stations. Free of charge ;) And you always pay after the gas..

[almaas94]

had to notice :o bike and sandals? i usally use good sitting shoes when riding <.<

[HockeyHead252]

i use chevron with tegron!!

[kazeboy1]

I wish my bike had a fuel gauge! actually I wish it had analog gauges I dislike digital gauges

[HoRizoN2797]

whatever makes you happy

[jcheu4]

haha woodridge! 4114!

[Dinosaursarethebest]

Fill up your bike while your on the bike, you can fully fill in your bike that way instead of it leaning.

[pootang47]

dude, shorts? careful man

[NguyenEmpir3]

love the accent lol.

[GAZEDable]

shoot ya in WA for helmet on while filling up

[graeme127]

lol i have figured out that you go to the caltex at wood ridge lololololololololololololooll

[Clare1970]

I love your videos ;) they never fail to make me smile

[darklynxprotege13]

"This is exciting" See, even filling up your tank at a gas station is exciting if you have a bike. I must have one.

[RamirezRoyalty]

I'm American i dont know much about Km's :\

[NovaCute]

nice shoe

[eragonboy3]

is it better and safer to drive a car or a motorcycle?

[magster121]

@eragonboy3 more exciting, better on a bike but a car is safer, i still love motorbikes more!

[squibb07]

@blinkycab i sooooo want a 125 bike, do you know anywhere where i can get one cheap?!?! :)

[karolissp]

In lithuania you fill up yout tank and then go pay ;)

[jcomliller]

27 thousand people watching



[bfunwithfriends]

[rifk1111]

@bfunwithfriends you may want to consult a psychiatrist. just sayin'

[exas49]

[TheGibbousPhase]

Neva eva...haha

[MegaFOolCOol]

When you say fifty bucks do you mean dollars or pounds?

[TheGamingDirect]

@MegaFOolCOol Dollars, me thinks :)

[Arcamea]

Haha "come on lady its green!"

[marlowekurt10]

You say potentially hundreds with you?? Try 25 thousand mate ha ha

[Zeppelindude628]

[happyrider100]

Hey Blinky,

Thank you for encouraging myself and

others to give vlogging a go!

[guachu13]

Wait .... wait... you can fuel your bike before paying? WTF? Well that's convenient hahaha

[KKOBII]

"thinking they care, but they dont"

I CARE!

[47flamenco]

hi guys im going to get my ninja 250r 2010.i really confused that which color is better for the ninja 250r.so i decided to ask u guys and get ur opinion.which color is more cool??!

would be happy to know ur opinion.

[TheGamingDirect]

Just got my first bike (I haven't passed my CBT yet, it booked for 3 days away). Great video's!

Glad I can use the side stand the fuel up, I'm quite weak, damn its hard to use the centre stand :x

Am I the only one?

[ELHV]

@TheGamingDirect

You're not on your own with that. At first I had big issues with the center stand, too - hardly could engage it at driving school and that got me very nervous!

Eventually I found out that it's much easier to engage the main stand if you use the inertia of your whole body instead of pulling back and up with just the muscles in your arms from standstill.

Don't let this worry you too much for now, you will get used to it very very soon! :)

[TheGamingDirect]

@ELHV Thanks for you're reply, sorry I have only just noticed it.

I see what you mean, I can confirm since I went to the CBT, I can now confidently use the centre stand with no problem. Its not how strong you are, its if you use the right technique.

[Ashitaka255]

@TheGamingDirect I know it's an old comment but I feel the same way! I'm quite short and thin and I'm really worried about how I'll manage once I get a bike, if it falls I'd be probably struggle lift it up again.

[TheGamingDirect]

@Ashitaka255 I understand you're concern as when I wrote that comment I only just got the bike. I can reassure you that once you've done it a few times, you'll be fine :) Its not how strong you are, it's more about technique. I lean't that during my CBT. Have fun riding :D

[Ashitaka255]

@TheGamingDirect Cool. Thanks for the reply, I just had my first lesson and I loved it. I'm gonna be a rider for life if everything works out.

[kingkelv666]

" i don't look at the cost of fuel" Lucky you ... i look and cry over here in the uk!

[pyramidhead138]

$1.50? u lucky asshole

[Ryanl993]

seriously dude..wear long pants

[gabbb75]

Approx. 1,30 $C / Liters IN CANADA!

[twistandshout87]

In Sweden we pay 2 dollar per liters. (We don't have any oil). XD

[CristianoS522]

Nehva ehva

[dougaholic]

Once you get to E on that gauge, you still have another 100ks to go mate. I regularly get 300-350 from a tank on my ninja 250 and I don't exactly go easy on her haha. Also You only need to run regular in the ninja 250, I run 95 octane but that's only because I'm a fussy bugger.

[yq8166051]

you Australian?

[chrisingoodcompany]

40 bucks at mcdonalds?!? WTF! HAHahah

[ratmfreak05]

lol, blinky kicks so much ass

[andersv114]

ohh how nice! I got 1 bullet im ny gun and it is only one that dosent like this vid.

use or not to use is the question, what can i use my bullet on ??

[JaMarvin2525]

Loving the vids man. I'm bout to get my first bike in a few weeks... Kawasaki ZZR 600

[chivasfor22]

so in australia you fill up your tank then pay?

[GAMESGLORIOUSGAMES]

@chivasfor22 in most countries you do that. i was surprised when i went to america and the petrol station guy said we had to pay first and then we paid $10 to much. its a much simpler way to fill up then pay.

[TheGamingDirect]

@chivasfor22 :O You have to pay before you fill up?? Its the same here in the UK :) Fill before you pay!

[RossDavis28]

@chivasfor22 same in the uk

[alber697]

@chivasfor22 same here in spain, fill then pay :D

[lostagent23]

@chivasfor22 same in New Zealand

[DioIsTheBest]

@chivasfor22 in greece too

[magster121]

@chivasfor22 its the same like that in england chiv

[jason23189]

@chivasfor22 yep. its this amzing trust system we have going. also we have freedom of speech which if ur from america you will not have heard of...

[lakkasito]

@chivasfor22 here in spain also

[mattyz2004]

@chivasfor22 yep.



[pootang47]

@chivasfor22 yep, but not at night anymore, pre pay at night

[javaleira]

did he buy his bike new???????????

[papercut272]

carb bikes only take premium

[pooleyusk]

why would you waste money on premium?

[hudsonlovestosurf]

@pooleyusk Over 11 litres he probably paid like 60 cents more...

[MegaRyoNo]

your vids are great

[5spd5thgen]

dang sucks in america we have nothing more than 93!

[bhtooefr]

@5spd5thgen We use different octane standards from the rest of the world. His 98 octane is roughly equivalent to our 93 or 94 (and I have seen 94 available at the pump in Ohio.) His 95 is equivalent to our 91, and his 91 is equivalent to our 87.

[nokia26300]

@bhtooefr here in philippines we have 100 octane available at the pump

[espdeangibson]

@ 6:47 Foo Fighters - This is a Call

[joelflmartinho]

I'm watching almost all your videos and the funny thing is that i'm starting to recognize the streets where you're driving.. xD

Nice vids men! :D

[tpattersonification]

$40 at McDonalds! :P Are they buying everything on the menu?! Jk. Great videos!

[adadda66]

How many kilometers did you pased with full tank ?

[stopyellingslut]

Your the best blinky, I want a bike so badly

[toMATo152]

blinky i love you. no homo. nuff said



[TheCyclops777]

You always put on your gloves and then suddenly you remember to get keys out of your pocket :D

[OBS3RVE]

I always life up my hoes so that nothing drips in ;)

[peter0139]

cool video you're mad haha

[ExiasRevenger]

Does the bike have one of the things that stops it from overflowing like with cars??? you know how it clicks and it stops pumping?

[casedawg15]

@ExiasRevenger i think thats the pump not the tank

[ExiasRevenger]

@casedawg15 yea cheers, just did some research on it.

[Wreckage72]

how did he fill the tank BEFORE paying?

[69warbeast69]

@Wreckage72 some gas stations still let you fill up with out paying first

[fewsh]

@Wreckage72 Australia bro, everything is backwards. 

[BiGMiKe314]

16.00? it only takes me 7.00 to fill up my r6.

[animewolfshadow18]

*sings along* What ever makes u happy... xD

[IcePickSnowmanzzzz]

HEY nice 2 c it isnt raining lol

[chargerman06]

a wanker lol

[joshshoot]

you must live in a old english conquered (whatever) part in australia right?, because british dudes ride on the left side of the road to.

[texlyon]

@joshshoot Whole australia drives on the wrong side.

[joshshoot]

@texlyon it does ? Lol i didnt knew that, i thought only a part of australia did.

[BALJIT147]

don't use bp they will murder your penguins

[TheJahmarr]

neva eva, neva eva lol

[70chevelle8]

That sucks here in the united states our fuel options (at least in iowa) are 87 89(with 10%ethanol) and 91. On the rare occasion you'll find 93.

[dropvlop]

Yeah, only using one type of fuel is indeed a pleasure for your bike. But the guy talking about the lubricant in bp was just telling bullcrap :)

[shane12345656]

a dollar fifty!!!! i pay $3.80

[joecaporaso]

@shane12345656 for a gallon or a liter?

[shane12345656]

@joecaporaso a gallon

[woodmontguy]

@shane12345656 gallon or liter?

[MrChazOMatic]

@shane12345656 he pays per liter so compared to USA he pays about $5.50 per gallon...which is a hella lot more than we pay :P.....math is power

[shane12345656]

@MrChazOMatic i did not know how liters were measured untill i looked at a 2 liter of soda haha

[1775edde]

@shane12345656 i think they go by Liters not gallons.

[hanrahan4]

@1775edde Its in the UK somewhere, so yes, it is liters lol

[Logo3801]

@1775edde yeah maybe humm

[DustinsReality]

@shane12345656 A litter he said, not a gallon

[frozenskipper]

@DustinsReality litre*

[MrTarheelblue1011]

@shane12345656 liters are smaller than gallons (major factor of price) :)

[chargerman06]

@shane12345656

yeah a dollar a litre lol

[oliver2341]

@shane12345656 petrol or "gasoline" comes in liters over there.. not gallons like i n the u.s.

[itsrobbinhood]

@oliver2341 i was just about to say that. lol

[CaulayFlames]

@shane12345656 You're lucky. that means you're paying a 1:1 ratio (approx) for your gas:cost. while he's paying 50% more than a 1:1 ratio

[1SB1]

@shane12345656 I have to pay $9.80 US dollars per gallon..don't know how much that is in AUD but I know its one of the highest petrol prices :(

[quadguy112895]

@shane12345656 i pay 4.50/gal

[coolfool13w]

@shane12345656

that is per letter. in the us we pay per gallon

[wingsOfAnthrax]

@shane12345656 @1775edde yeah your right, in australia its per litre, not gallon, one gallon is 3.8 litres

[Logo3801]

@shane12345656

[xomiakas]

@shane12345656 *~7-8 liters, Yamaha r6 (2006) ~23$ for 100km

[flybikes90]

@shane12345656 Per liter. So if its 1.50 per liter, its 5.6 a gallon

[ThePotatodan]

your not waring pants :O dont be a squid

[vagabond791]

what brand of gas here in the states is good for a bike

[quadguy112895]

@vagabond791 my buddy runs nothin but shell in his bike. (v-power) arco raped his motor.

[hahaland74]

You're driving on the wrong side of the road, lol jk

[VR8691]

14 thousand other people with you

[parshnipe16]

way to let it warm up first..

[evilmuffen117]

@natw87 I did not know they use liters over there. damn

what is that $4.50- $5.00 a gallon

I thought we had it bad.

It seems like it should be less over there.

[regmo209]

Is everything cheaper in Australia? Like how much would you pay for an average meal at McDonald's or something?

[evilmuffen117]

$1.50!! 

Only if it were the same here*sigh*

[SlimySnail44]

@evilmuffen117 First off, It's $1.50 in AUD (which is about $1.58 USD) and as the other guy said, it is in liters. 1.50 USD/gallon would be a hell of a good price, but oh well :)

[evilmuffen117]

@SlimySnail44 Yeah I just wasn't thinking about that at the time:) O well

[SlimySnail44]

@evilmuffen117 it's ok, sorry for being a smartass, I don't mean to :)

[bananapuffcream1]

Haha I wish gas was $1.50 here in texas. It's like $4.00 a gallon. And my RM 125 takes super unleaded so it's like $4.80 D:

[Bassiknoise]

After watching your videos now I want to buy a Ninja xD

[joelflmartinho]

@Bassiknoise +1 :D

[AusShinDig]

Not sure if it's true but I read that putting high octane fuel in bikes not designed for it is bad. Apparently slowly over time it can damage the engine. Some bike manuals even advise against it. I'll ask the dude at my local bike shop when I get my ninja in a month or two.

[hakrsakit]

i live in central Illinois and we pump first... hahaha

[meshuggahfan]

hahaha, caltex = texaco, i'm lovin it.....

[Chakiifullar]

whatever makes you happy!!! hahaah,nice vid man

[Rkooner]

HAHA blinky you are so funny bro. "Then they go and spend 40 dollars on macdonalds or something." Rofl. OI man im so excited. Im getting my brand new kawasaki ninja 250r 2011 model, colour black.. this friday... few more days to go :D I'm also in Australia... Sydney here.

[StitchMitch36]

Hahaha!! "Because everyone thinks, if you're wearing a helmet you're doing the wrong thing!"

[cmoshier77]

in austrlia its litters??...in new york its freakin $4.10 a gallan for 93

[silv3rlogic]

Its so strange seeing someone pull up, pump, and then pay. That's unheard of here in the states, you have to pay before you pump everytime

[007StephenC]

@silv3rlogic I live in Arkansas and a lot of the gas stations you pump then pay. There are some that you have to pay first but the pumps are pretty far from the actual place that you pay.

[Bogdan841]

where i live it is now become rare to purchase non ethanol premium fuel or any type in general not sure about diesel. Would the ethanol effect the performance? or anything?

[RJacobs8907]

Great videos man, keep em' coming!!

[marino4691]

with these 100 people with you, you could have easily robbed the fuel station !

[TheBikerBoiii]

why u got slippers on and then decent gloves how weird nothing to protect your feet and ankles witch u need more

wow, i get around 350-420km from a tank of shell 91 fuel in my 08 ninja!
