What is Good Guys welcome back to another video as you can see I’m finally riding my voto Soo CPX it has been a long time coming I have now switched all of my accounts over to a motorbike from either a bicycle or a ebike account all
Of my insurance is sorted out with zego which is decent and I’m so ready to get started I’ve got my Puig Mega Box on as well which is unreal so we’re starting off this video with a double order coming in from Wendy’s and Sam’s chickens paying
£8.48 cuz there is a boost on at the moment cuz of uh Ramadan so Ramadan Mubarak for anyone doing that hope you enjoy breaking your fast T night hey this car in front of me is going about 6 mph down foret road is very annoying like why do you need to drive
That slowly I don’t understand yeah we got 7 Minutes 1 mile before we get to the first restaurant I’m very interested to see how much money I can make on a moped compared to my previous like bicycle and ebike accounts but it’s looking like a busy start to this Friday
Night I love kicking off with a 8 uh double order that’s not bad at all yeah we’re going to head there now man I got to be careful doing this tonight cuz I’m so used to riding my bike and I can normally get around all of these sort of
Construction works but today it is a bit of a pickle because I’m now using a proper vehicle I can’t park too close to this Wendy’s so I know a little place I can park just from now close to the pure gy I’m just going to back around here I
Might even be able to just walk to s’s checking after that cuz it’s not too far to be honest we’re just going to pull up around here somewhere loading only that looks good enough for me to be honest we’re going to chill here well not chill
But going to walk up to Wendy’s now yeah it’s mad this already feels like such a different experience as to what I’m used to obviously I’m like this little bag now got nothing on my back anymore which was was becoming quite problematic especially with like the rise of uh
Supermarket jobs so it’s nice to just you know have nothing on the back just chill you know hi hello I got a 81 81 please right here it’s got a scan yeah I hate this new system yeah it’s awful is it especially cuz we don’t print receipt paper really oh so you
Just have to do it straight from the tablet yeah fair enough see you later thank you bye-bye all right first one done and then Sam’s Chicken is literally down here on my right so yeah might as well just do that and then we’ll drop both of these off all right
We got there in the end order doesn’t look too big either hopefully it’ll just fit in this one bag hello got 8532 thank you y That’s what I’m doing thank you all right it’s set in the first one is 6 minutes 1.2 just got a little bit of a
Walk back to the bike then we’re going to drop off both of these orders I’ve got a feeling I’m going to be hit with a lot more double orders now that I’ve switched the accounts but be interesting to see my discover some new parts of pumpy hopefully all right hopefully the
Uh the bike is still here this is a it’s not like a sketchy part of Portsmouth but I know people that have parked here and they’ve had their cars broken into it’s just uh it’s a risky little place but fortunately my bike is still here okay it has changed somewhat it’s now
Saying 6 minutes 1.6 but that’s not an issue if you see me driving a bit funny please know that I just haven’t used this bike that much so I am still kind of learning how everything works I’m just terrified that I’m going to get either a speeding ticket or maybe even
Like a uh like a parking fine or something cuz I don’t know if I was meant to even be in that loading thing but yeah we’re just going to see what happens learn as we go and you can watch me either win or Fail Okay do you have the code as well please 39 39 yeah perfect have a good one it thank you thank you all right that is the Wendy’s dropped off now we got to go drop off this Sam’s Chicken order we got 3 minutes 0.6 this is just such a different
Experience to how delivering normally is like I feel like it’s going to take me to loads of new places that I don’t know where it’s where you going okay sweet yeah just the comfortability of it you know I’m just sat on my ass I don’t have to pedal or anything it’s a completely
Different ball game I got to say I brought two of my batteries out tonight on the CPX just because I thought it would be a good idea I don’t plan to do more than 80 miles tonight but it’s just good to have the uh the pece of Mind
Basically all I think I’ve arrived hey did you order the uh as Joseph yeah 39 39 79 oh 79 sorry thank you good and I got two drinks for you as well there we go all right thank you all right guys we’re getting another order in
£54 from locked and loaded which is in Gold Hall so not too far from here it’s paying 554 which is actually very reasonable I’m going to take that you going so what was going on with that there thank you stra Sh got this please per thank you very much thank you cheers okay 9 Minutes 2.3 mil little bit longer than I thought but not too bad yeah I’d be quite interested to know what vehicle schols you guys ride and have any of you ever made the switch
From a bike to a motorbike or an ebike to a car basically just want to know like what your favorite is and what reason that is cuz there’s clearer benefits to doing each one like bicycles you can get in and around a lot of places a lot easier uh mopads you can
Filter in between traffic cars generally are just quicker uh speed wise not necessarily uh delivering but yeah I’d like to know cuz this this is all new to me I have ridden bikes before but I’ve never used it for work purposes so it’s quite an interesting uh interesting way
To do it so one of the biggest things I’m getting used to is wearing the motorbike helmet so you guys will be glad to know that I’m delivering safely and I’ve also got a sort of motorbike hoodie on underneath what I’m wearing now it’s got like the elbow pads the
Shoulder pads everything so I’m all protected which uh yeah you guys will be happy to see for once keep feeling like little drops of rain as well it wasn’t meant to rain today oh you just pulled out of nowhere yeah I’m hoping it doesn’t rain cuz not really wearing waterproofs to be
Honest with you this blue thing is I used to have this when I was a kid I used to wear it when I was playing football uh when I went training on Saturday mornings but yeah it’s uh probably about 15 years old it’s ragged but it does the job getting a bit
Smoother with the uh transition of getting out of the box always takes me a while hello hello oh sh 16 16 yeah thank you sir have a good night yeah I do love that you can park at like all those Ringo machines you don’t have to pay if you’re a motorbike
Which is very nice indeed should I do a delivery shift on uh one of those not sure you’re even allowed to be fair but would make quite an interesting uh journey I think now again they’re trying to make it a double for 168 like not going to
Happen hello I’ve got a Kate can we drop can I have ETA can any fellow motorbike Riders let me know how long it takes for your helmet to feel comfortable because mine is really painful at the moment it’s actually like proper pressing the part of my skull like just above my ears and
It is getting a bit painful I’ve not worn the helmet for this long before I’ve done sort of like half hour rides 20 minutes here and there but this is like the most extended period of time that I’ve used it and uh it’s getting pretty painful so if it improves I won’t
Replace it but you know it is actually really hurting so I might have to get a new helmet but hopefully we won’t have to I heard that some I think somebody told me that it kind of like molds to the shape of your head after a while
Which is exactly what I’m hoping for anyway guys we got 5 minutes 1 and 1/2 miles I’m going to listen to some music CU I’ve got a banging intercom I’ll put a song on for you as well Enjoy hi sorry I was just calling you sorry it’s okay have a good night yeah that job was not really worth it I think it pays like £3 something but yeah it took like 15 minutes or something so not a deal trying to work out exactly where I am at
The moment like I did predict it this uh these motorbike accounts they are taking me to a bunch of different parts of portsman and the restaurants are different I think that’s the first time I filmed natti’s pickup as well it’s a little Caribbean place but as long as it
Keeps it interesting for me I like the ability to be able to switch between the voto and the hyway that’s what’s going to keep uh the job fund for me I think guys I’ve been driving around for good like 30 40 minutes and nothing’s coming in I’m on Uber and
Deliveroo I’m not really sure as to why it’s so quiet it is 900 p.m. on a Friday I mean there’s a lot of people out obviously but I just figured there’d be more people uh ordering it is the middle of the month so that is always an issue
When you get to payday that’s always the best weekend to work like I’ve made s of 2025 an hour on those days it’s looking like I’m on about £7 an hour tonight which is really weird that’s partly my fault because cuz I have just been
Learning how to sort of use the bike I don’t know motorbike shortcuts that’s something going to have to learn obviously it was different when I was on the uh on the ebike cuz I knew all of them already but yeah I’ve got to sort of like relearn how to do the job if
That makes sense I know it sounds like a minor change but it is actually quite a big change indeed the batteries on the bike are looking very healthy still I think I’ve used about 30% of the first battery I’ve still got all of the second
Battery to dig into if I need it so one of these batteries on the voto CPX they give you about well they say about 44 mil with the way I drive I get about 40 so I sometimes I put it onto sport mode sometimes I’m on the full uh level three
So that’s obviously going to increase your consumption making it less efficient but it’s just nice to have something a bit more powerful you know I actually drove this bike from Portsmouth to Hazel uh which is probably sort of there and back it’s about a 65 m round trip and um yeah that
Was good fun it was nice to be like out on the bike it was my first time using a moped in England and sort of except for my CBT anyway and I hope the audio is good I’ve put my microphone sort of in a similar place to where I did it on the
Ebike videos and I don’t know if that’s as effective I know some people they put their microphone inside the helmet they do the whole like Moto vlogging full setup but I’m still experimenting and hopefully I’m just going to make more videos and learn how to ride the bike
Better learn how to film better cuz again that’s changed you know my uh camera used to be on my chest it’s on the on here now so that’s why you can follow me around but yeah it is just very strange that no order are coming in you know I always figured once you
Switch your accounts over to moped and all your insurance gets approved and everything then I always thought it was up from there but I feel like during the peak times is great but I’m not too sure how well it will do in these maybe less quiet times sort of your
9:00 you are in the middle of the road sir Lally got two massive Pavements either side of him and he’s like yeah I think I might just walk in the middle you know it’s so funny but I guess that’s what happens when you come out 9:00 p.m. on a Friday all the drunk
People are getting ready to go to the clubs out causing Havoc no doubt so guys this will be a short video today I am going to wrap it up just because my head is actually hurting from this helmet I might have to adjust it but I’m glad you
Guys got to see a little taste of me using the moped uh there’s going to be plenty more videos like this coming and I hope you all enjoy enjoy them very much so yeah as you can see there I did the three orders for delivery one of
Them was a double paying £14 to and I did the Uber 335 so if I do some quick muths that is £ 1737 for 2 hours I’ll put the hourly rate on the screen now but yeah I don’t really want to talk about how little money I made today but
It’s good to be out on the CPX I’m going to be using this bike all the time make sure you like the video subscribe if you’re new and I’ll see you in the next one

Hi hi Sir
Your audio is great . Fantastic video Sir so close to hitting 10k
Hi from Vancouver Island BC Canada. Like your videos top stuff. You should give us a tour of your new wheels. Keep safe. Cheers
Also audio and video was on point. No worries.
So you’re no longer going to use your himiway?
Seeing that indicator left on. Tut tut you! Tap it every so often, after every turn. Even when you know it's off. Build that habit!
You're allowed to park it on the pavement. Even outside a shop if you can walk it there.
Helmet should improve within a week maybe even less depending on how much you wear it. If it's that painful I'd say it's too small to be honest.
Glad to see you finally on the bike. Take it easy!
Do you get more orders on a moped Vs car and bike??
You need a bigger lid
Just another amazing video, hello From Portugal 🎉☺️
once you get a little more confident mate, you will see the window for filtering…..that's where the dollar will come from!
Hey congrats on getting an e-moped! I have recently switched from push to e-bike 🙂
I'm using ebike but changing to the same moped in couple weeks for the comfort
the issue with changing to a motorbike account in my city is that them and car are last on deliveroo priority so its pointless
Ref helmet: the padding does mould to your head over time (which is also why you shouldn't lend your helmet to people ideally), but it won't take all that long, maybe a couple of decent shifts for you. It's not like bedding in shoes or gloves where you're softening leather, you're just squishing foam. If after that though you're still getting discomfort you should go try some different ones on at your local bike clothing store. There are a few general head shapes and certain brands suit certain people better than others. In time you'll learn which shell shape suits you best, which shell size suits best, and then know what feels right and what doesn't going forward.
Can we get a bike walk around? Would be nice to what it looks like.
I got a 500cc bike. I use it for commuting and travelling Great fun.
Have been riding motorcycles for over 40 years. New helmets can take some breaking in. But never had one that actually hurt. Sounds like a bigger size needed to me.
Go you sir great 👍
I love giving people the novelty of a standard bicycle, never tried an elecy
'Sup, from Montreal (Canada)!
When I first got my e-moped (Niu UQi+) I often forgot my blinker. It happens a lot during winter, as I'm wearing thicker gloves, so I often accidentally hit the switch when tapping my cruise control button. I also accidentally honk more often during winter because the horn button is right next to the turn signal and cruise control buttons.
Not to mention I'm wearing a helmet with ear covers, so I don't hear the audible turn signal.
As another viewer mentioned in another comment, don't rely on the automatic shutting off of the turn signal after a turn. Turn it off yourself every time.
EDIT: Extra Tip: If you want to save battery charge but still take off from a stop rapidly, you'll have to get used to changing the modes while riding. For example, most of the streets you're on have a 20 speed limit (is that km/h or miles/h?). You don't need to be in a high mode at those speeds. But if you're on the lowest mode, you won't accelerate rapidly. So, from a stop, I switch to Turbo (what I call my Mode 2, I don't have a Mode 3) to accelerate rapidly, but I'll quickly switch it back down to Mode 1 once I reach the speed I want.
And if you're just cruising, stay slow to extend the range. It'll take more time, but it'll bring you further.
I went from a normal bike to electric bike. I don’t think I would upgrade to a scooter, motorbike or car.
Thank you for being honest about the money you made. It’s very quiet nowadays for various reasons.
Definitely need a bigger size helmet!
💪✨
Are those miles or km per hour on ur bike mate
I've been doing this for the last 3 months and I have to as at least in Italy is not worth it.
My account is setup as Motorbike/Moped. but I guess it is better to set it as bicycle.
I say this because even with my account as motorbike, it makes me travel from 7km to 12km each delivery and the price can be from 3.77€to 8.00€ Gross, so net in Italy would be from 2.94€ to 6.24€ and with the price of gas is not worth it. I really don't understand why are customer able to order from restaurants that far away.
The biggest downside of the App is that you just don't know the distance of the customer unless you pick up the order physically and then it shows you. It's very frustrating.
Let me make an example.
1. You accept an order that's maybe 4.20€ Gross which net would be 3.28€ and the restaurant would be like 3 to 5 km to reach but that's fine.
2. You reach the restaurant, wait maybe from 2 minutes to some times 15 minutes to pickup the order.
3. After pi picked up the order you can navigate to the customer and then realise the customer is 10km away from there.
It's annoying cause you'd then have to give back the order if you have an electric moped as I do that maybe is low on battery.
I once had 1 order at McDonnald's for 4.00€ and the customer was 6km away.
While I was waiting the app asked me to pick the second order from McDonnald's for +1.00€ Gross which is insulting. I refused cause the customer resulted to be as far away from the first delivery which ended up being around 7km.
They wanted me to deliver the second order for just 1.00€ for a trip that was 7km…. WTF?
Is Deliveroo always been like this or am I just unlucky?
Also if it’ll help I normally wear a hoodie and actually out the hoodie over your head to keep your ears warm and everything aswell bro I hope it helps
