    Man, talk about nerve racking. I live in Lincoln Arkansas and there are no laws against lane splitting but there are no laws saying we can either so I’m a little apprehensive about trying that. What would you do????

    So can you fix your brake squeak?

    • @dawnrobb8809
      @dawnrobb8809  6 років тому +1

      yes. I can just remove the brake pads & reapply anti squeal to the back of the pads & re-install them. It would only take a few minutes to do it. Right now I'm dealing with stage 4 pancreatic cancer and don't feel like working on the bike. so no I wont be fixing the squeal

  • @samsmithmotovlogs

    • @dawnrobb8809
      @dawnrobb8809  6 років тому +1

      Thank you The Softail is still having problems. Now the electronic ignition is not firing so I have to replace that next. I've gone over all the wiring & replaced everything else i found wrong. I hope that's the last thing needed for awhile. It does feel good to every so often just ride like you stole it

    • @samsmithmotovlogs
      @samsmithmotovlogs 6 років тому +1

      I know what you mean. It almost sounds like you have a bad ground wire somewhere. Well good luck.

    • @dawnrobb8809
      @dawnrobb8809  6 років тому +1

      yea I've gone over every inch of wiring and fuses etc. & they all look good. I get voltage to the parts but no spark at the plugs now. I tested the coil and it gave no ohm readings & it was 17 yrs old so replaced it with an old one that was weak but worked until I could buy a new one. Got the bike fired up for a short time. It also was time for a new battery so I replaced it. The charging system had melted the plug ends away on the voltage regulator & stator so I replaced the whole charging unit. I got it running for awhile and then she quit again. No spark at the plugs. The red LED test light on the electronic ignition unit stays red constantly and it's suppose to blink with firing sequence. That's a sign it's bad so I'm getting a new one and we'll see what happens. I might have shorted it out when I was doing the spark test earlier as you're not suppose to turn it over without the spark plug cables on & plug grounded to heads. When doing the test the plug fell off the head were I had it grounded for spark or it may've just been time for it to go out? After this nothing else left to replace so it better work I've also got to buy a special tuning light for motorcycles & a tach along with the new electronic ignition module because my old one only works on cars & I don't have a tach. They say anyone can get it set to run and fine tune these new modules we'll see LOL Thanks

    It doesn't get any less scary every time I watch you, Rob! We can lane split over here in England, but your high-speed version scares the heeby-jeebies out of me, and probably some of the motorists, takes them by surprise...and all that; "hooliganism stuff" is best left to the Rice Burner Brigade on their Sports Bikes!....LOL....! Take care Rob!.....😀...😀...😀....!

      It's not as dangerous as you may think as long as you're paying attention to your surroundings. Yea I probably do scare some drivers when going past but not intentionally. Why leave all the fun to the sport bikers? Cruiser bikes should have just as much fun as they do but I should watch my speed which i usually do. I just needed to get away from the truck who was chasing me. Thanks

    Great show Rob, wish you didn't has ta put up with those Non-sense, drivers. And I don't think they'd understand, that you have the right to Lane Spit there.
    Had trouble with my ignition some time ago,( on the '89 Sportster XL) it had a slow speed miss, like while ridding in a 25 MPH speed zone, turn out the Red Wire was shorting out on the engine case at the Nose Cone hole. I keep the old ignition, coil and all for a back unit if ever needed. Hope the New Coil fix the problem. RSMF.

    • @dawnrobb8809
      @dawnrobb8809  6 років тому

      Thank you There are always some who don't know it's legal or don't like lane splitting but I'll not let them ruin my fun lol
      The new coil worked great for about 5 minutes then the electronic ignition unit in the nose cone went out? The red LED status light is suppose to flash every time you get a spark, mine stays on all the time as you crank the motor, a sign it went bad. I might have shorted it out by accident while working on the electrics & checking for spark. Apparently you're not suppose to pull the plug wire off and spark it against the head using a screw driver like the old days. Suppose to use a special tool I don't have to check for spark. Who knew lol. Well that's the next & last part to get replaced next weekend & we'll see what happens. I've got to also buy a special timing light & tach to set the timing. My old ones aren't for motorcycles just cars The fun & expense never ends

    • @darknitethunder
      @darknitethunder 6 років тому +1

      Yeah I can remember having only a very few tools as a youngster, and could repair most command break-downs and / or tune-up's with just a screw driver and a wrench or two. So here we are today with thousand (Ok maybe only a couple of hundred, or so) of dollars in tools, and still we always seem to need just one more to get the job done. But I love it, Live to Ride and Repair some too. Hope the new ignitions make the grade. RSMF.

    @davidgrason161 6 років тому

    I don't see where you have a lot of room to complain with the lady at 4:28. You're traveling at a considerably faster pace than she is while approaching her from her right side. This is NOT the defensive riding that any good biker should be exercising if s/he wants to keep on living. You are not lined up in her mirror and her B and C pillars are hiding you from her. But you get pissed at her. I don't get it. Why is it so many bikers apparently have absolutely no ability to see the situation from anyone else's point of view?
    I've ridden motorcycles all of my adult life and probably have at least a million miles seat time on them - 54,000 miles on the old Harley alone. I've watched all of these lane splitting videos and I have to say that I am damn glad that lane splitting is illegal in my state. I think that, when Cali legalized lane splitting, they opened up a huge can of worms with bikers pushing traffic around the way they do. Surely the law makers in California had no idea how bikers were going to start abusing this new privilege when they simply said: "Motorcycles can split lanes WHEN THERE IS ROOM!" Dude, you're splitting lanes where there is clearly NOT enough room for safe operation. And yet you seem to feel completely entitled to do that and bend someone's mirror when they don't give you the room you think you are owed.
    I think that it is interesting that, in those states where lane splitting is illegal, bikers split lanes very safely cause they know they'll get ticketed if they get caught. LOL

    • @dawnrobb8809
      @dawnrobb8809  6 років тому +2

      The reason I was not happy with her is because #1 she was going below the speed limit #2 she was busy talking to her friend instead of paying attention #3 she never looked before starting to change lanes. The fact that I was going faster than her and legally passing her in my lane doesn't excuse her bad driving. It makes no difference if I was on a bike or in a car, She NEVER looked before changing lanes. If you're OK with idiots like that that's your business, I'm not OK with idiots like that. I saw it coming and avoided being hit because I was watching for her to do something stupid because she wasn't paying attention & I knew I was going to be going through her blind spot. I wanted to get my point across to her to pay attention is why I purposely scared the shit out of her. Her point of view what ever it was is irrelevant IMO.
      I figured you to be a non rider or just another weekend, fair weather, posser rider that is against lane splitting & that's your right & you probably shouldn't ever try it. Just stick to the country roads & slow lane as you putt around town. You stand more of a chance getting hit than I ever will.
      You like so many other uninformed have no idea about Calif & it's lane splitting history or law. Lane splitting has been around since the 1960 when I first started riding. There was NEVER a law AGAINST it they just now passed a law setting the regulations they want followed. I always have room or I don't do it . Unlike those I've seen who run into cars that you're talking about As for bending a mirror out of the way that was one time with an ASS HOLE who came into my lane as I was passing him trying to hit me. If you think that he was OK to do that then you're as bad as he is.
      If you don't like lane splitting then don't watch & don't comment just like i wont watch your guitar playing or make any comments about it

    Seems that you cause most of your own frustration on 2 wheels by lane splitting because you can, and not because you need to.
    Keep lane splitting and one of those cars will punch your ticket eventually.
    Legal or not.

More riders get hit by people turning in front of them or rear ending them than they do by lane splitting. My only frustration is with idiots who don't what they're talking about or how to drive
