Surviving Hurricane Helene on a motorcycle
There's no such thing as bad weather, just bad gear. What better way to test that theory than riding in Hurricane Helene. After picking up a new fall jacket and grippy Dunlop K180 tires, I wanted to put them to the ultimate test to see how they performed. Little did I know, that I would be the one being tested.

An AMAZING ride on Harley Davidson’s new electric motorcycle

There's something about riding on two wheels through the mountains here in Virginia that refreshes and recharges me. After outfitting my S2 Del Mar with some new, more aggressive tires, I plotted an epic 80 mile route through the blue ridge mountains and it was just what I needed.

They had it for a couple months and ended up having to replace the entire ECU but it still won’t update and is now in Turtle mode. I got the bike back but have no acceleration and if I drive it too fast it kicks off the motor and I have to pull over. The dealer is waiting for a TCU replacement so that it will update so I’m really bummed and hoping they can fix it. I got mine in January and it’s probably spent half the time in the dealership just waiting for parts. I’ve only been able to put 2500 miles on it.

I make and sell my own accessories, and that helps fund me as well. LiveWire has sent me parts a few times in the past, and that was part of an adventure series I had already planned before they got involved. I'm under the impression that they sent you a few screens for free, and considering those are over $1k, it's far more money in parts they've ever sent me.

Would love the Livewire to replace the BMW and the more I watch your videos the more I want one! The price is an obstacle to a degree. Here in Germany the HD version from 2020 still for 29000 euros (live in Germany), and the Livewire one for 24000 euros. I love the Harley orange but concerned about a 4 year old battery from a 2020 model which has not been driven?! I‘d also.

      You can have the battery assessed by a dealer - ask for a ‘RESS report’, which will show you what the battery health is. If it’s a new bike, typically warranty on battery doesn’t start until you buy it, but that’s something you’d have to double check on. You really have to try to damage these batteries

      Just depends on the terrain. In most cases, coasting will get you better range as you're not consuming any energy, but building up your own energy by rolling downhill. You will never regenerate more than what you're taking out, so its something good to use ONLY when you absolutely have to stop or slow down quickly, as that energy would be lost anyways.

    Very well done, sir! Bought my Livewire One 2 years ago on Mother’s Day 😅 and since then, it just keeps getting better as I grow to appreciate it more. Went to the HD in Fishers, IN a week ago for my 1,000 routine service and took the Mulholland for a spin. Your analysis is spot on. And I’m relieved actually that as much as I enjoyed driving the Mulholland, I was not tempted to buy it. For my purposes, I chose the right ONE :) But now I want to share some exciting news with you that you probably already know. Yesterday I was successful supercharging my LiveWire ONE using the Tesla Supercharger station with the “magic dock.” As you probably know, the magic dock has a built-in adapter that allows the Livewire to use the Tesla supercharger infrastructure. The other superchargers that are older do not have the magic dock will still work, but you have to provide your own adapter. I got a free adapter by virtue of my Rivian truck ownership when they recently mailed me one. It was a dream come true for me to charge my Livewire at Tesla Supercharger because their infrastructure is so convenient and so dependable and accessible nationwide. Opens up anxiety-free road trip possibilities. 👏👏

    • @AdventuresonZero
      @AdventuresonZero 13 днів тому

    Dude that did not look fun... but im.surpised the Del Mar could do that. I've been bouncing around on what electric motorcycle to buy. And I thought just buy a 6k cheap solor 2.0 but the del mar impressed me on that drive. I imagine a better tire for off rd but still good on pavement would be even better. I just don't know if I can pay 17k after everything for a electric motorcycle. I wish the sonders bike would have worked out. I was buying 1 of those for sure. And would of payed 8k maybe 9k. They fucked up. They could of changed the landscape. They should of begged Elon musk for backing somehow someway. I can't believe their isn't a Telsa bike. Harley is the only way to go right now. Zero is a company I hate. The way they do business. But im surpised zero hasn't put out a smaller 8k moto. To get people started. Then your hooked and move up the chain. But he'll what do I know. I'm just a dumbass.

      Not an adventure until something goes wrong 😉 yeah zero lost my trust a few years ago. They have a worthless repair policy and the components were subpar in the late teens models, dunno how it is now. Energica is a great brand as well, superior customer service. LiveWire is a great company and their bikes are even better, top notch. I put some Dunlop K180s on the Del Mar, and they’re really great! First adventure on them in this vid ua-cam.com/video/PLp-GZI5ooA/v-deo.html

    I’m 52. Ive been riding since I was 6 (dirt bike) and have ridden everything under the sun. My grandpas old Indian with a Jockey shift, hard tails, kick starts baggers, crotch rockets…My Livewire Mulholland is the funnest bike I have ever ridden. I ride it everyday. 120 miles is plenty to get me from house to wherever I’m going. And I’m not a left wing vegan hippie. I spent 25 years in the Army, most of that with special operations. If you are considering it, go test ride one.

      Curious about your experience. Can you share what it feels like to shift from years of riding old Indians & baggers to Livewire.

      @@Smart.Potato No vibration. No heat when in traffic. Quiet. I’m on 100% combat disability, so it’s nice not to have to clutch and shift. Even if I wasn’t, it’s such an enjoyable ride to just twist a throttle and go. And go damn fast too. If you want a bike that you can ride from one end of a state to another with your friends at 75 mph with a bunch of stuff, look elsewhere. If you want a bike that’s about the fastest thing out there off a light, that you can chuck around and zip by people and not have to worry about what gear you are in or anything, this bike is amazing. I’ve got my 1000 and 1500+ Ironbutt patches. 120 miles of range is fine for me and what I do.

      All the same reasons I ride electrics, also a vet with 100% combat disability. By the time I'm ready to take a break from riding, it's time to charge

    3:51 Canam might be liquid cooled but it's useless... you can't charge it fast enough to make a difference. I'm curios, have you experienced charging slow down with AC charging on S2? If so, it's not the battery, but the charger. Unless they are extremely conservative.

    • @AdventuresonZero
      @AdventuresonZero 16 днів тому

      I've noticed that if ambient temps are high, say above 90°F, the charging is throttled. But if I put the bike in the shade, it charges full speed

      @@AdventuresonZero Well, you are putting the charger in shade too. I've had 5 full DC charges back to back on highway, even if it dropped it didn't dropped below 9kW. About stressing the battery, Teapot One made The Iron Butt Challenge (across UK) on Energica, a little above 48 hours non stop (well... except charging stops). I suggest the watch, it's an interesting video. 😊 So unless it's extremely conservative, probably too much, or the charger is the issue, not the battery. Unless the smaller number of cells of a 14 kW battery increase the load of the single cells, compared to a 21 kW. I should run some numbers, but I don't think there are data on how many cells there are.
