The Davidlee8 Interview

In this episode, Tyler talks with country rock guitarist, vintage BMW aficionado, and frequent motorcycle seller David Lee, who has made quite a name for himself on BaT as he approaches 50 sales. They cover early parental concerns about motorcycle riding; obsessive tendencies; the power of the no-reserve auction format; a red door as branding; building community by selling from the heart; the upcoming Quail Motorcycle Gathering long-distance rides on old bikes; a near miss on the Autostrada and the life-changing insanity of riding in Italy; the endless wonders of the western USA, especially when experienced on a BMW GS; how to achieve success as a beginner on BaT; therapy through working on bikes; and the origins of the infamous “riding gloves.”
