Orcas under my boat
Went fishing a couple of days ago and ran into a pod of Orcas on my way out to Flat Island. Fished for a few hours and came back a slightly different route to avoid the area where I saw the Orcas earlier only to meet up with them again off Hegseth island.

Homer Alaska to Tok Junction

The Canadian border is about 600 miles north of Homer Alaska, so think of it this way, to ride out of Alaska I have to ride 600 miles and 600 miles back south in Canada just to be at the same latitude that I started from! The temperatures were moderate in the upper 40's to lows in the mid 30's. The ride offers phenomenal views of the Matanuska Glacier the St. Elias mountain range and sometimes ...
Pro Rider training, I’m so far from being a pro rider.

I stayed at Grove Ridge RV Resort for three days. This Resort is quiet and clean. I got plenty of rest staying here. Much nicer than a hotel, in my opinion.

I’m riding my 2021 Honda gold wing DCT tour from Homer Alaska to Spring Hill Florida with many stops in between. This is an introduction to my bike.

I love the Honda spray. Living in the desert with very little rainfall it works perfect to clean my bike after every ride no water washing/waxing needed.
Thank you for making this video, Randall. I'm a subscriber and, as a fellow GW owner ('24 6-speed Bagger), am grateful for your content. So, of course I went to Amazon and read the reviews for the Maxima SC1. They're unbelievably great reviews, although the few negative reviews talked about defective nozzles (no biggie...luck of the draw), many mentioned that it causes dirt, bugs, etc. to stick to the point where it's hard to remove. One H-D owner even claimed it peeled his paint. The H-D could be a fluke, but before I buy, I wanted to ask if you've experienced any of the stickiness issues other reviewers claim? Thank you again.
I've got a 23 Goldwing. I am retired I wanna do this too. Only with me it would be north east where i live to south west. Bucket list stuff. I also use the same stuff to clean and polish my bike. Nothing quite like Hondas own polish.
I really want to make my way up the northeast coast, I've ridden to New York but want to go further up into Maine! Hope you get to ride your bucket list!
How was that last shot? Mud?
The Honda gold wing is the highest quality motorcycle on planet earth, you could literally tour the entire globe with no issues. The best mathematics went into the engineering of the gold wing engine is incredible. I own a 1986 Honda gold wing interstate GL1200. Best motorcycle I ever bought. Best machine I ever owned period.
I agree! I traded my 2017 ultra limited in on the goldwing. I loved the ultra too, just wanted something different and really like the looks of the wing. This summer while riding I considered trading it for an Indian or a road glide, but for several reasons I couldn’t. First I hated the idea of being halfway through a 15000 mile ride. Only to have to stop after a day to have the first service done, and the expense of that along with the hassle of scheduling the service. Then the list went on from belt drive maintenance no xm radio on the Indian, no heated seat on the Harley etc etc the short list goes on. I would own all three and throw in a hayabusa while at it but alas my pockets are shallow and I can have one bike and as you mentioned do well it is the best bike in the universe!
@@SpedtravelsAk yes
Does your goldwing have a ticking sound on the right side?
Not really I haven’t heard a ticking sound. I do hear odd sounds occasionally. Now the sound is something like rubber squeaking from the top of the steering head when I turn the handlebars. Sometimes I can hear a hissing noise down in the engine when it’s running, sounds like air rushing through the air box of an old fzr1000 I once owned. Could be air being sucked through the filter.
If you have a a ticking noise is it a valve tick maybe? Does it go away when riding or more pronounced? I have heard of people having the tick but can’t remember the fix.
Being a "PRO" does not matter. Being SAFE is what matters. You are fine. 👍
You’re dead on right about that!
Your bike looks great and it seems like you are well prepared for your trip. The plastic tape is a cool idea. Let us know how it works out. Have a fun ride.
I made the trip I went from Florida to Alaska. Had a Goldwing pulling a camper. Great trip be safe.

Thanks for sharing your video. Lots of good information in there. I also begin a trip with my oldest clothing that I loose as the days pass. Camping is a thing of the past for me as well. I want hot food, nice shower and good bed at night. lol. Yes, it must be the old thing. ha ha. This year I have added a trailer, just to make things even better. Catch you on your next video.
I like that “ he gets tired of picking up cones” I would most likely be dismissed.. The slow riding is so difficult
You can do it on any big bike.not just this.
I’ve ridden it on an FZ700 back in the early 90’s, a hd ultra limited about 5 years ago, and I’ve even seen people riding scooters up the alcan, so whatever you ride will work.
Hey Randall, great video my friend. It must have taken a lot of energy to launch the falcon. Could you hear it pass?
Thanks for the reply. I couldn't hear anything as it was really far away and actually traveling south down the coast of California and Baja. It looks a lot closer than it actually was, I'd never seen a falcon launch before.
Hi there. Road Glide sent me your link so I came over to check out your channel. Nice bike, great ride. Just subscribed. Have fun out there.
Good video. Subscribed
Hey thanks for subscribing once I’m back in Alaska I’m going to put all of these clips together to make actual videos! This is really hard to do on the road and a heck of a learning curve
Now I could go for that with Cruiseman!
0700 at that location. Maybe we see you there some Sunday morning RB.
Nice RB! All those miles and you still manage to keep that Gold Wing looking sharp. A master class in pride of ownership. Great job out there. More in 24! Some day see if you can attend a Cruiseman’s breakfast at Awake Breakfast in Carrolton, Texas. On Hebron Pkwy.
RB looking awesome! Yes Jerry is a Pro. But his entire career and still continues his riding expertise with a Clutch. Jerry still would need some acclimatization with a DCT. They are two different animals. Give yourself some slack. You now know what it will take to reach these optimal turning thresholds to be efficient and confident. Practice makes perfection. Then continuous practice to maintain it. Well done.
Thanks roadglide! I’m going to continue working on it. I even rode over to Round Rock Texas yesterday to attend a class with Paul Harper at Central Texas Pro Rider tomorrow morning, he was gracious enough to let me get into a class.
@@SpedtravelsAk Excellent RB!
I love that stuff from Honda. BMW has something even better, I think. I can go thru so many cans a years. I found that dish soap with water (1:10) ratio in a small spray bottle with Micro Fiber cloth, great for cleaning on the go/long trips. Never fails.
Nice job out there RB! Excellent camping and traveling pointers. Also looks like you have the Gold Strike Shock & Awe kit. Looks great! I commented on yesterday’s Gold Wing cleaning video and gave Cruiseman and all the other awesome content creators noted in that comment about your saddle scuff cleaning tip with SC1. Thanks again.
Thanks 👍 the scuff cleaning was a great thing to come across. I don’t think it’s a permanent solution I don’t see how it can be, thanks for letting Cruiseman know as it was his channel that led me to buy this bike, I’m off to Austin Texas for Paul Harpers Pro Rider Central Texas riding class! Thank you so much for your kind words on my videos!
@@SpedtravelsAk You bet RB! Have a great time at the advanced training! Good stuff!
Hi there Randall. My friend Road Glide sent me your link so I dropped over to check out your channel and subscribe. Thanks for sharing all the cleaner products information. We all struggle trying to find the one product that does the job well. Your bike looks awesome. Have fun out there and try to stay dry! lol.
Awesome, thank you!
How did you make it that far so fast??
He must have been watching your videos. Had to be. 😂
Quite a few 700 plus mile days!
@@SpedtravelsAk more power to ya.. I’m headed up and currently in AZ
@@F6B_ADVENTURESI’m headed to Surprise Az then heading back up hwy 93 from Wickenburg takes you all the way!
@@SpedtravelsAk wow!!! I’m going to take the scenic route and cross into California nd go up
Man I love how you take care of that beauty. I’m on the same page. Chris Caliente and Cruiseman of Cruiseman’s Garage are the same way. Those cats set the bar! All of us have impeccable looking machines. Thanks for the saddle scuff removal tip! Robert White another great content creator Robert White Moto has been looking for this very answer. Someone’s going to be very happy. If you aren’t familiar with the aforementioned Gold Wing Cats, check them out. SC1’s on my list! Excellent job RB!

Interesting. I will have to check that stuff out.
You should! I hope you like it I got to grab a few more cans
United States Flag goes on the right, not the left. Check the flag code. Thank you
Thanks for the information. I followed the manufacturer’s instructions without paying attention as initially my goal was to fly two flags one on each side. If I can find a drill today I’ll move it over to the other side.
It's center to right.
I made the trip in the opposite direction. I left Florida and went to toke Alaska That is a great ride. Be safe.
@@TheDocBurns when you have two flags, one American, it goes to it’s own Right. So when you look at it, it’s to your left.
Love hearing the story. Jerry Paladino is awesome. It must have been challenging on a DCT? And spectacular Florida living too. Snow birds from up north and around the world come to Florida from Nov through March/April. Good stuff RB.
It was a little more difficult since there isn’t much of a friction zone. Jerry was great about explaining the proper methods. I have a mental block about turning right, left turns, no problem. I’ve got about 40000 miles on the bike and I’m very comfortable riding it. But being 4000 miles from home I didn’t want to drop the bike. Jerry is thorough and I rode away satisfied with the day.
@@SpedtravelsAk 40K miles RB! Nice.
Looking great out there RB! The Wing looks fantastic from here too!
I’m on the same page with the Honda cleaner & polish. Your bike looks great. You take great care of it and it shows. The protective tape is a great idea. The way a motorcycle should be card for and look like. The DCT is a ripper. Easy and quick off the line. I also like all the accessory choices and the Traxxion kickstand pad too. Is that the new Shoei Neotec 3?
You noticed the kickstand pad! The helmet is a neotec 2. My second season with it. I love the helmet the best modular helmet I’ve ever owned. Putting a new face shield on it in the morning. Thank you for the kind words!
This is the bike to do it with. No other bike on the planet is for that. NONE!!!! Super trip, man. I wish one day to have time to do this too. Safe one!!!
Thank you! I made it to Florida! I have videos I want to upload to this playlist
100% agree on the right bike!
@@alp3781 I was 79 when I made the trip so don’t give up on it be safe and healthy
Show us some more videos from Your trip. I bet it was a great ride
I will upload more videos as they are made
