To Cam or Not to Cam ? That is my Question!
I have never done any motor work to any of my bikes in the 22+ years I have been riding! It is now time. I am keeping my 2016 Road Glide and have come to the point where I need some more juice. I am finally going to cam a bike. I am a bit nervous, but look to your advice and support. Leave a comment for me after watching this video.

    my first harley was a 23 lowrider st. after listening to the stock m8 i knew i was going to cam it. while in there i also did preventative maintenance, changed out a lot of things. s&s sells a kit. Then took it to a dyno tuner that races in king of the baggers. It was cool of him to check on my work, and the tune was great. At first I messed around with dynojet and fuelmoto tunes but in the end nothing beat a professional dyno tune. i havent thought about motor work since then - i am real happy with my bike still and i dont plan on big boring it or anything like that. the bike is faster than me. One issue i did find was after camming the bike, the 2-1 short exhaust was really loud. i lived with it for a bit but im changing it out to a longer pipe.

    No such thing as a Road King Standard. Road King on the new chassis is what to expect. Softails will be unchanged. Moving Rev Max to Thailand will kill it. Trikes need the chassis upgrade as thats where the $ is. No sense in the factory making 4 separate fairings and two frames in the touring lineup. Dyna is dead. Have a good cry and get over it.

    You made some good points brother. Personally i like the silver color on the 24 street glides. But my favorite color is that shark skin. I have noticed the prices have come down on the 24s quite a bit and i was looking at them until i found a 21 street glide special. The price was great and it only had 5300 miles on it. I just put the kahuna heated grips on it Friday. Never had heated grips before so did my research and pulledcthe trigger. Wow. I cant believe how nice they are. I went for a day ride Saturday and had them set at the number 3 setting. So i am looking forward to extending my riding season in Ohio for sure.

    A few things: 1. All corps have dei and have had dei. If everyone is upset because of this and wants to boycott…cool. But be prepared to show that same enthusiasm with your banks, your fuel, your groceries…ect. I didn’t say some corps. I did say All. 2. Should they publicize their dei? Meh. This product and the demographic, probably not and when a company does this it’s kind of virtue signaling. 3. Should people be boycotting. That’s a choice but see 1. 4. Is the ceo a dumbass? Yes. 5. Is Harley in trouble? Yes. It has been. They have been far behind and playcating to a group that honestly, are more in the used market now and have been behind the rest of the market in new riders. 6. Is Harley trying? Yes. Look at the pan am. That bike is great but they are starting to price themselves out of that market too. When it first released I bought one, loved it and said good job Harley for having a 19k big adventure bike. Not having a sub 10k bike though is a big mistake. The barrier to entry is too high now. I have had soo many bikes. I left Harley for Indian for a while, went to triumph, and my latest looked at Honda goldwing (too smooth of a bike), rocket 3 (this was hard to say no) and bmw but came back for that sweet 24 road glide. I love the v twin. Love the water cooled heads, leds, CarPlay, and the overall lines of the new street glide.

Led all around? Yes please. Car play? Yup. Good functions and options yes. And now, I love my 6 day old, whiskey fire street glide. Rinehart exhaust…not too loud, sounds good when I get on it. No ear pro needed. Yes and yes. Love it!!!

Can’t really describe it. I will say that riding is my mindfulness if that makes sense. I now ride an Ultra Limited and I can’t really imagine not riding. It just feels like that’s where I belong. The other thing that changed for me was becoming involved in a biker organization that helps abused kids and that has really changed my life.

    CHIPS was a cool show. I watched it all the time. But the major influence was my uncle. We would see him a few times a yr because we lived in different states. But he would tell us stories of his adventures while riding and camping. He rode a gold wing. My first two bikes were Japanese brands but my plan was to eventually move up to a Harley. He hasn't rode in yrs but Whenever we get together we dog each other because he was a hinda fan and I am a harley fan. So when I go camping with my harley it's such a great feeling. A feeling of freedom. The sound. The smells. The sights. The experience. It feels great at the end of the day. Unloading your bike. Setting up your tent and relaxing. I just saw him a couple of weeks ago and we talked bikes and travels that we had done.

    Great tips Chef. Watching the tire on the other vehicle at intersections key. Alot of folks don't know that. On my last trip I was about twenty yards behind a semi truck when it's tire blew. I saw it when it happened. Heard it then saw the tire shred. That's why I don't like to get to close to them. I always watch my mirrors. Moving or stopped. When stopped and a car is coming up behind me I squeeze my break lever a few times so hopefully the car knows I am stopped.

      THANKS FOR ALWAYS COMMENTING BRO! Yeah I keep my distance from semi trucks if at all possible. Years ago on a group ride we had a semi blow out an air suspension bag and scared the hell out of us and we were all over the road. I am glad to know I am not the only one who uses the brake lever to signal folks behind me LOL.

    As a Scotsman, Americanophile and Harley fan, I can't believe what's happening with the brand. I ride a Harley because they build great motorcycles and to me represent American freedom and individuality, something long taken from us in Europe. Zeitz needs to go ASAP and the board need to be replaced by patriotic Americans who know what Harley Davidson means to us!

    I imagine the founders are spinning in their graves over this. I hope Harley wakes up and sees their mistakes. Thanks for a great video chef.

      I am sure they are- like rotisserie chickens. So many have worked so hard to make it the company it is. Hopefully this does not affect them the same way as others.

    The 2024 fairing is ugly. Those blinkers that run down the fairing ruins it. I wish it was the 2023 look with 2024 bells and whistles

    So which bars did you wind up with ? Mid bend or high bend with the 6.5 pullback ?

    They make a cable you can plug in that makes the system think that you have a headset plugged in.

    Beautiful ride! I was lucky enough to live and work in Savannah GA for a while through my job. (I'm from Scotland). I toured as much as I could, saw beautiful country and met some amazing people along the way. I'm a huge fan of the USA!

      I think it is crazy that you are from Scotland and worked here. So many miles away but so close LOL. I love the riding around here. I am glad you got to experience some of it. I would love to go to Scotland to ride.

      I was lucky enough to have a job that let me travel to different countries. (I was a hovercraft engineer and my employer had worldwide service contracts). I also lived in Seattle WA for a year. Scotland has some beautiful riding, but hey, don't forget your waterproofs! We can get four seasons in one day lol!
