Riding from Golden Valley AZ to Sedona AZ on June 14, 2024
Переглядів 135Місяць тому
This is a ride from Golden Valley to Sedona. Round trip it was just a little over 400 miles. I left home about 10:30 am friday morning. Debbie was going to Sams Club in Bullhead City and she said “why don’t you take a ride”. So I did. I took I-40 through Seligman and Flagstaff and then took Hwy 89A south down through Oak Creek Canyon and Slide Rock State Park to Sedona. What a beautiful ride. M...

Rebuilding a Holly 4 barrel carburetor. It's a 1965 Rambler 770 Station Wagon with a 327 Rambler V8
Переглядів 342 місяці тому
George gave me a class in carburetor rebuilding today. I was impressed. He tore that Holley 4 barrel apart down to nothing. We cleaned it in a gallon of carburetor cleaner. Then washed everything with dish soap and water and then rinsed everything thoroughly. Then blew everything out with compressed air. He just put it all back together like it was nothing. Yes. I know he has done it many times...

George's transmission mount for his 1930 Model A hot rod.

We spent the morning modifying the front engine mounts and mocked up a rear transmission mount (rear cross member). I tacked it together at George's house and took it home to weld it up. Not bad for a couple of old farts with no experience.

Riding a Kawasaki Voyager from Golden Valley to Ludlow then to Amboy
Переглядів 914 місяці тому
It was a spur of the moment ride. I left home in Golden Valley, AZ at 10:30 and took about a seven hour ride. Just about 360 miles of beautiful weather and countryside. I rode to Ludlow, California and then took Route 66 over Ash Hill down past Siberia, then Bagdad and finally to Amboy and discovered the road closed on the other side of Amboy. So I had to back track back to Ludlow to go back home.

      I sent my ECU to Ivan's and had it re-flashed so the cooling fan comes on earlier. Yesterday I rode from Golden Valley, AZ to Las Vegas and back and the temperature gauge never reached the "red" hot zone. The temperature was 114 degrees. I was hot and the bike was very hot to the touch, but the engine never overheated.

    Great video, Gunny. I love the 2022 Voyager's paint scheme. I know that a lot of younger guys like their baggers all "blacked-out," but I like some color (for aesthetics and visibility). I will likely be getting a Voyager or a Vaquero sometime in 2025. Did you reflash the ECU?

      Yes I did. The second week I had the bike I sent it out to Ivan's and had it done. I've never had any engine issues and the warranty is up in 8 months so I don't anticipate any warranty problems.

    Hey Gunny, would have loved to had a bike even a car back at Camp Horno 1979-1982. Can't say I had a good time at Pendleton, as an 18 yr the home sick blues got the best of me. Though after some time sank in I knew I was stuck till 82. I graduated ITS - Infantry Training School San Onofre sometime after 02/80. After that many of us in our class dreamed of getting stationed somewhere around the world. Until I heard my name along with others going down the street to Camp Horno. What a bummer, during ITS many of us would hear stories about boring Horno. That's what stood out. But I was blessed to have been chosen to S-2 ST&A Platoon - Surveillance Target & Acquisition, not a line company. ST&A Platoon was the forward observers of the battalion in the field. They had a week long course in mainside that taught us about ground sensors, night observation devices & small areal radars. Mostly for troop & vehicle detection while in the field. Nothing against grunt line companies but back than the living amenities were not a priority for grunts in my beloved Marine Corp. Goes back to the ole Marine Corp philosophy don't give the grunts shit, keep them hungry & ready for battle. Ooh Ra!!! Mainside Marines didn't know crap about that, they were living in modern day facilities with all the perks. But I had some great friends in line companies that were with me on the 1982 Super Squad Team. We ended up competing in Quantico, with 8 other super squad teams. I'm reminded of this great video you have shared with us. A couple of times when hunger appeared on the radar late at night at horno. I would borrow my best friends motorcycle get in all the other orders. Make a mad dash to Oceanside I believe Jack n Box. I just remember leaving Horno driving towards Pulgas somewhere down the road exiting the gate and driving down I-5 south for about 20 min. My version of Peter Fonda ( Easy Rider) with a high n tight, only my version included an igloo cooler on the back seat to accommodate chow for many hungry marines. Towards the end of 82 I was no exception to the ole marine corp myth called short timer phase. Can't tell you how happy I was for that time to arrive. Don't get me wrong the Marine Corp was an essential important part of my life. I'm happy to say it taught me valuable lessons in life and made me a man. But as anything in life it wasn't for me. I guess Easy Rider gave me that free spirit liberty that we all dream about. I apologize for the extended history story on this former marine. I thank you along with all the others for sharing this great video. If for no other reason to reminisce of such an important place in our lives, that we still cherish till this day. Blessings Always!! Ooh Ra!!

    So Gunny, I have a question for you. I'm an old guy who loves motorcycles and gave my Yamaha FJR1300 away to a friend a few years ago after I had back surgery and didn't think that I was ever able to ride again. Well, I feel great and I work out at the gym 3+ days a week and I KNOW that I can ride. I miss it terribly! But, being 75, do you think that the Voyager might be too heavy of a bike for me. I know there are "lift" devices that can help raise a bike up again after it's gone down (not that I think that's going to happen, but it has in the past) but I still worry about not being as strong as I used to be. What do you think? Voyager or smaller? Greg

    • @oldgunnyjones4452
      @oldgunnyjones4452 Місяць тому

      Greg....I have a bad back. It goes out if I just sneeze wrong. I do carry a lift device when I ride by myself just in case. Although I have never used it yet. The Voyager is a heavy bike. No getting around that. But I love it. It's just so comfortable to ride. I'm 73 and don't plan on quiting anytime soon. I also ride a 2012 Harley Road Glide Ultra. They are both about the same weight.

    I recently had a woman rear-end me on my 2005 Yamaha Road Star Silverado 1700 and totaled my bike. I've owned a lot of bikes over the years, a Harley (won't ever buy another one), several Yamaha's and Honda's including 3 Goldwing's, and that Yamaha was my favorite. I got 2 cracked ribs, a badly sprained shoulder, and 2 large hematoma's on my legs. Other than that, I think GOD was watching out for me. Anyhow, when the woman's insurance paid for my bike, I bought a 2016 Kawasaki Vulcan 1700 Voyager! A definite UPGRADE! This Kawasaki is my new favorite bike! It's just that the previous owner wanted LOUD, so they put a Vance & Hines exhaust on it. I don't like LOUD! I love the way your bike sounds and wish mine was that quiet! But it costs too much money to buy a stock exhaust for it. So, I guess I'm going to try repacking the baffles to quiet it down. Stay safe out there!

      @zachredner8....I bought almost new stock exhaust at a Harley dealer for my Road Glide for only $150.00. I bought the bike used and hated the loud exhaust. The Harley dealer employee "upgraded" his exhaust to Vance and Hines and Python head pipes, so he sold his stock stuff to me cheap. You might look around on Ebay or Craigslist. I called Harley dealers and found mine about 80 miles away. It was worth the drive.

I went to the local Kawasaki dealership and 1 of the employees had a Vaquero with a stock exhaust and he offered to trade me for the Vance and Hines that my bike had and he paid the mechanic for switching them. So it didn't cost me anything and now my bike is nice and quiet. :)

I still have a Harley Road Glide Ultra that is an absolutely beautiful bike and runs awesome. I ride the Voyager way more than the Harley now. Yes! I would absolutely buy it again. I think its the best bike for the money. My Harley would be way more expensive to buy new. So would a Gold Wing or a BMW, etc., etc.. I love it.
