Bottom Sprocket

Climb into our minds and listen to the untold complaints of working in and running a YouTube channel. Millions envy content creators without ever putting their rent on the line for it. It may look great, and it certainly can be, but there are plenty of things most people don't think of or talk about when it comes to building and operating a YouTube channel.   Come and hang! We have a lot to say and need people to listen and make us feel important. We're excited to share our experiences and help new riders get on two wheels. Audio versions are available on all major platforms, and here: https://bottomsprocket.podbean.com More from us: Whitney: https://www.youtube.com/@Whitney_Does Insta: https://www.instagram.com/whitneydoes/ Josh: https://www.instagram.com/suzuki_simp/ Jake: https://www.youtube.com/@spitescorner Insta: https://www.instagram.com/spites_corner/   

In our short motorcycling careers we have purchased over a combined 2 DOZEN motorcycles. We've bought everything from crappy cheap bikes that don't run to beautiful brand-spanking new machines and everything in between. Where do we prefer to buy nowadays and what is the best option for our audience? Grab some tea, take a seat under the beautiful live oak in your backyard, and let's talk about the wonder (and sometimes nightmarish) experience of buying a new bike. Come and hang!

Bottom Sprocket took the last month off because LIFE! So we're back with our favorite bikes released at EICMA this year.

@spitescorner is upset about a recent law passed without a vote or really any discussion. Does lawful lane filtering make sense to you or does it even matter?

We're getting a little meta this time of year. @spitescorner asks @Whitney_Does and @SuzukiSimp "Do motorcycle reviews even matter?". This might be a strange question to ask a bunch of motorcycle enthusiasts, but HEY we have a lot to say on the matter! Come and hang! This is the opening episode to Season 2 of The Bottom Sprocket Podcast Featuring Spite, Whitney & Josh. We have a lot to say and need people to listen and make us feel important. We're excited to share our experiences and help new riders get on two wheels.

@spitescorner has been thinking about this for a hot minute... What's been stopping YOU from going electric? We all know it's happening regardless of our judgements or biases. So in today'as episode he picks @Whitney_Does and @SuzukiSimp's brains on the matter.

In Todays' episode, @spitescorner , @Whitney_Does and Josh bring their collective experiences into the fold and share tips on staying alive whilst riding. Of course several side tangents occur like horrifying dealer demo stories and how to ACTUALLY take a corner.

All signs point to an unprecedented era in the motorcycle industry. EV's, greater regulations, stronger opinions than ever, and shifting demands are making every motorcycle brand adjust on the fly. Some don't seem to be adjusting very well and we're calling them out!   Come and hang! This is Season 2 of The Bottom Sprocket Podcast Featuring Spite, Whitney & Josh. We have a lot to say and need people to listen and make us feel important. We're excited to share our experiences and help new riders get on two wheels.

When some people get a motorcycle they become do-it-all builders and fabricators, and other never touch a wrench. If you want to start working with your motorcycle then maintenance is the obvious place to start. We discuss oil changes, tires, and all the jobs that we would confidently tell an beginner to go for. When should you call it quit and take it to the dealership? We've been there and are excited to share our experience. If you're setting out to build a tool box and begin saving time and money, give this a listen! Let us know what we missed in the comments.

Come to Dream Land with us where money, safety, and reliability are no more! Where do our hearts take us when we let them dream? What does Whitney choose with 3 great bikes already in the garage? We dive into our dream bikes and why they will probably never make it into our garages... 

Dealerships get a bad rep. Spite and Whitney tackle horror stories of serial killers, service departments, their own bad experiences, and those of our beloved Discord folks. This weeks episode ends with the first major meme competition where a winner will be crowned victorious and take home a Cardo Packtalk Edge. Tune in and share your dealership horror stories with us in the comments! 

If there was one piece of knowledge that would have saved us money, trouble, blood, and tears, here it is. None of us came from motorcycling families. But we learned anyway and it wasn't pretty. Add to the discussion! What would you with you had known and why?

Aren't all motorcycles good? Well sort of, but what makes one stand out amongst the crowd? What makes one stick in your mind and haunt your dreams? How do you quantify the ROCK HARD effect of an awesome motorcycle? We honestly don't know but in this episode we take a hard crack at figuring it out. What do you think makes a motorcycle awesome?

**Episode one has some production quality.....challenges. These have been fixed for future episodes to give you the rich and deep podcast quality you expect.**   In the very first ever episode of The Bottom Sprocket Podcast, we get straight to the point and start offending unexpecting and undeserving motorcycle owners. We take aim at some of the most hated motorcycles as well as some of the most beloved motorcycles you can get your hands on. We discuss why people love them, why they are wrong, and why things have gotten this way.    Notable mentions include the Triumph Bonneville, Suzuki Hayabusa and even the absolute peach of a motorcycle, the Suzuki SV650. Let us know what we missed in the comments. Check out the video companion from our live recording on Spite's YouTube Channel, Spites Corner.    Do you part. Don't be lazy! Stay on the trail, go over logs not around them, check your tire pressure before you ride, and like and subscribe to our new podcast. Comments are nice and we read every one so do that as well but please be nice to use. We are fragile bikers.
