All great tips for those not knowing or needing a reminder. I do have one input, the engine stop switch (kill switch) should only be used in emergencies or to input the pin code.
Thanks for the comment but that's wrong. You always use the kill switch when turning off the bike.
Now I'm curious, how many people don't? 🤔
* Comment below * "Use" or "Don't" use the kill switch?
@@TravelingTall I've never used it and was also taught that at MMI. I'm also curious. Maybe you can do a video interview with one of the Techs there to see what their input is on the subject, 🤷🏽♂️.
I only use it on my FXR with the 124 because of the heavy duty clutch won’t let me hit neutral. I’m going to adjust it .
@@TravelingTall “Use”
Use….every time
Brother, that dealership ought to hire you as their trainer for all the sales people. That was an exceptional good piece explaining all those items!
I’m trying to get into sales at a dealer and I’m using these videos to help learn about the bikes
I'm 79 years old and I ride a 2004 Heritage Softail Classic. I Live in Charles City County, VA. and just got back into motorcycles in May of this year after 54 years absence. I'll be moving up to a touring bike in the spring of 23.
Had to laugh out loud. That happened to me. I stopped for gas and found the key fob had fallen out of my pocket. Had to use my code. Retraced my route and found it a couple miles back. Sure as anything, someone had run over it. Thank God for that code. Good video.
Brother Tall, perhaps you’re already pursuing this; HD should/must hire you (independent contractor) as “The Voice of Harley D.” There could be different episodes covering a variety of topics. You have the passion, people skills, product knowledge, riding experience and your demeanor is refreshing. God’s strength be with you my Brother. Peace.
Great job thanks for that!
Agreed!! Get that voice on the brand and bikes will sell.
Very well said.
Excellent video sir. You just taught me more about my motorcycle than every salesman who's ever delivered a motorcycle to me combined.
My first bike, the only thing the salesman told me was which lever was the clutch! lol I was totally green, and very lucky to survive that first few weeks.

Hi Tall, this is Gert from The Netherlands, riding a ‘21 Road King Special in Deadwood Green and a ‘03 Fat Boy anniversary. I love your channel and although I ride motorcycles for a long time it’s always nice to learn something from fellow riders. Keep up the good work my man 👍
I really needed those reminders. A lot of times we just get to the new riding season and think we “know” or remember and that’s not always the case. So, thanks again for the reminder! Stay safe and have a blessed day!
Throwing in a comment to help your algorithm! 22 RG is my first bike ever. 3,500 miles of riding experience. I ride in the south so fortunately I don’t have a real winter cycle causing the bike to sit. Regarding the safety pin and transportation mode was very insightful. Slammed us with some knowledgeable tips! Thank you!
Thank you for the info. I bought a 2016 Ultra Limited a little over a year ago and as you mentioned I was really tired but excited when I bought it. I only knew the things I had learned on uTube prior to buying the bike. The salesman wasn’t much help and I soon found out that I knew more about it than he did. By the way, I bought a 2016 FLHTK. Thanks again for your videos. I’ve been following you for some time now and will continue to do so.
I ride an '03 Roadking Anniversary FLHRCI because many of the Harley mechanics I talked with say the '03 models are Harley's best because they represent the company's 100 year milestone. Enjoyed your video and insight into the complicated electronics the newer bikes have. Good job. Nevada rider now from Alaska.
Thanks Tall, good content. I just added a 2017 Heritage Softail to my 2006 Goldwing GL1800. Everyday is a good day to ride!
Great video! I dropped a fob while on a ride in Tombstone. Fortunately, a rider in the group knew how to start without a fob and also the default code to start it. I have my own code set (I went back and found the fob) now but had forgotten how to access it. After this video I will go out into the garage and check it out. I have the code in my wallet since 2020. Thanks for posting this.
This was brilliant, Tall, I learned some things that I didn’t expect to.
Thanks for the effort you have put into this video. ✌️
im on two wheels riding a 2008 street glide the best glide! tuning in all the way from Los Angeles California you have great content and i enjoy your channel.
Thank you for all the tips. Great job!
I've seen lots of Harley Davidson videos, this by far is the best. Every one who is buying a Harley should see this video before and after you buy your Harley. Thanks so much.
Thank you. Great information.
I ride 2022 Street Glide Special and live in Louisiana. Great information, Thank you Tall!
This was a fantastic refresher. Thanks!
2018 ultra classic. Thanks for the tutorial. Great info.
Obama with a Harley career... I dig that brother. I learn like gazillion things with just this video and I was looking for a video like this for a long time specially the fact that I just bought a Road King FLHP in about a month ago.
And that key thing is super helpful. The part where you can actually set your own pin or even ride it off without the FOB!
Thanks man, I can't thank you enough and we kinda do the same thing in UA-cam for those that needs help. Never thought I would appreciate something someone else does here beside me, and it's been awhile since all UA-camrs are just floating the community and not taking their times to help and demonstrate. Like, subs and comment for sure 😃
Thanks for watching and subscribing
Those were some great tips. Thank you For sharing them With us.
I ride a softail classic 06 from Missouri. You are one of the best explainers I’ve come across with not ever using foul language and your extremely intelligent I feel blessed to have the privilege to join your channel because of you my next bike will be a street glide and with you help I will make it my dream bike equipped with all the upgrades I want!!! Thanks!
Great class. We appreciate you taking your time to do this video.
I would like to see that this is hands down the absolute excellent best educational and informative video explaining the functions of a motorcycle I've ever seen in my entire life and I'm 61 years old and have been a biker my entire life! You explain things so amazingly simple and clearly! Thank you so very very much, I was one of them **_ FOUR *_C guys where you stated that you are so excited about buying your bike that you just don't really pay attention to anything you're being told because you're just so ecstatic of your bike, you are awesome at what you do on these videos and you definitely have the right career because you are a people person. I am Hawk from Eastern North Carolina about 60 miles east of Raleigh North Carolina and I bought a 2006 new to me Road Glide ironically a year tomorrow isn't that ironic? I had not written or owned a bike in 19 years it took 19 years for me to get back to being able to own a bike and I am thrilled and it is a beautiful beautiful bike. Thank you again for this video and I will definitely subscribe and look at all your other videos. May you and your family friends and loved ones have a very very Merry Christmas and a happy healthy and safe New Year! Again I thank you. Hawk. I stumbled across your video today and the date of today is 12:17- 22, I just can't believe how ironic it is that I stumbled across this video and tomorrow makes one year I had my bike.
Very good tips, bought my 1st Harley back in February and the dealer didn't go over any of the things you covered with exception of how to turn it on and how to lock the bars. I bought a 2020 Street Glide Special with 97miles on it, riding out of PA.
Great to hear!
Very helpful. Thanks for sharing.
First time viewer. I subscribed and loved the video. I bought my ultra glide limited and had no instruction from the former owner. Thank you!
Blessings from the Motor City, That was a nice informative video because I did get the Four C delivery when I got my 2020 Road Glide Special. Hope to see you next season in Detroit. Peace and Love
This was very helpful! I’ve had a few instances and I somehow figured it out but don’t know how I did it. Thanks! I ride a 2020 Road King from Indianapolis, IN
2023 Road Glide Special. All great stuff TT. Thank you for going over these things.
This is a great video, especially for me. I bought my 1200 sportster and my first bike in the winter .it was delivered to me and went in my garage with no explanation at all. I didn't expect an explanation from the delivery guy nor did I ask for it. It was just the dead of winter in Canada. Great channel for info and entertainment! Thank you!
Awesome video Tall thank you so much for sharing with us I’m from Grand Prairie, Texas I ride a 2003 100 Year Anniversary Heritage Softail Springer and 2019 Road Glide CVO be blessed Tall.
really appreciate you taking the time to help lots of us out with info we don't know or have. riding a 2020 black/black FLHCS 114
Thanks for watching
Lots of good info. Just got my new 2023 Road Glide. Thanks for posting!
First time Harley owner here- Thank you for this video. Great explanation and tutoring! Thanks!!!
Great video Tall, keep up the great work. I ride the real bike Road Glide. I had a streetglide, but I lost it in a house fire.
Great video Tall! Riding a '21 Road Glide Special and am from Ohio. Many great handy tips that are useful. Would love to see a video on the GTS, I feel like there are probably lots of cool uses that I'm just not aware of or don't know how to do.
Love the video! I appreciate you for the education. I own a 2021 Softail Slim.
Oh, I wish I found this video a month ago. I had a 4-See delivery myself on my first Harley about a month ago. Imagine my surprise when the controls did not behave the way I expected them to. And the computer seemed to have a mind of its own. After watching this video and reading the manual cover-to-cover, I picked up several important bits of knowledge. I love my Street Glide Special, bought new off the showroom floor.
Thank you for developing this topic. Too often, experienced riders forget that some of us are soooo new that we don't really understand our own machine. Cruising around the Napa Valley in California.
Great video Tall! I bought my ‘17 UL from a great dealer here in North Eastern Indiana!
21 Trig Glide and 2 FXRs,from Oklahoma. Good information.
ATLANTA 2015 Street Glide Vivid Black chromed belly. Thanks for the vid. Very informative !!
2015 streetglide S , from fort Erie, Ont Canada… the head wrench did go over all the points about starting without the fob, but if you don’t do it all the time, you forget, like did. Thank you for the refresher. Most appreciated.
WELL DONE, THANK YOU!!
Came across your channel on accident and I learned something new from it. Thank you for the content and I will be tuning in. I currently have a fxr, a convertible, a street glide, and a street bob.
Thanks for watching
one of the most informative "new rider" videos i've seen. great job!
2010 heritage. Nice video ty for the tips / reminders.
Thank you for schooling this over 50 yr HD rider - no-one alerted me on at least 12 of your 21 points . I bought a 2019 Road Glide / my next newest bike is a 2007 Ultra - no comparison / next 96' Road King , which is antiquated by comparison - but still very much loved . KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK ,,,,, AND THANKS AGAIN !!
2021 road glide special, and I’m from the Knoxville area. I was actually at bootlegger yesterday while you were filming this
Great video Tall. I am in Lawrenceburg Indiana. I ride a 2016 Ultra Limited. Color is Purple Fire Blackberry Smoke. I get lots of compliments on it. My lighting is 99% Custom Dynamics.
Thanks!
Really good video Tall. I'm a rider for many years. I got a bunch from this. Thanks again for the great job. Stuart. 👍
Nice review keep up the good work Traveling tall
Great refresher Tall, I ride a 2021 Street Glide CVO all year round in Alicante, Spain. I’d appreciate a boom box tutorial buddy.
Can't thank you enough for this video! Fantastic information. I just bought my first Harley; a 2015 Street Guide Special. I don't yet have an owners manual (ordered rom the dealer) and the place I bought the bike from knows NOTHING about Harleys, so this is lifesaving info for me.
Thank you!!
Great vid for new riders on the newer platforms… best I have seen!
My 14 street glide special does everything you mentioned.
I ride a 16 Road Glide Ultra and a 04 CBR1000RR. Riding in the great state of NC. I know you used to always say Street Glide or no Glide but I see you having more Road Glides in your videos and I’m loving it. Both are great bikes and the next bike I get will be a Street Glide so I can have both Glides. Keep making those videos. BTW I have a bunch of Custom Dynamics lights on my Road Glide too and I absolutely love them.
That’s awesome. Not many harley owners have a sport bike to go along with it. I have a 17 ultra limited and a 08 zx600 myself. Mad respect for people on 1k though lol im terrified of them.
This was the best tutorial I have received for my 2017 Street Glide…thank you so much…sending koodos all the way from Texas
2019 Road Glide Northern Virginia. Great video. I learned some things I did not know. Thank you.
Bootlegger HD needs to put you on the payroll😀
Great video brother...can you do a video on the do's and dont's of buying a Harley?
You did a great job Tall !! Thank you very much.
Thanks for video, yep was alot of info to comprehend when I went out the door with my 22 road glide.
What’s up Tall. I’m not a Harley rider. I own a Goldwing. Still enjoy watching your videos. I’m from Southern California. Thanks for the awesome content.
Goldwing great bike, I owned 3 of them and was looking to buy a forth one but they didn’t make one in 2011, so I been riding Harley-Davidsons every since. But I still love the Wings
22 Streetglide.. Huntsville Alabama
Thank you, Brother. So helpful.
Thank for the video. I’m riding a 2016 Street Glide 1600 love the bike. Looking forward for more videos.
Hi Tall. I ride a 2002 Heritage Soft tail and a 2021 Tri Glide Ultra. Thanks for the tips.
Hey cool brother! I have a 93 heritage and 2013 tri-glide. What a co-ink-e-dink!
Thanks for the tips, I bought a 2022 Harley-Davidson Heritage in May and I was told about starting without the key fob but wasn’t told how to use it or reset the code however I found how to in the manual and found only two UA-cam videos showing how it’s done. I keep my code and how to activate it on my iPhone that is always with me. I didn’t know about the battery tender plug until I bought a battery tender to keep the battery charged in the hot Las Vegas summer.
Love your videos and rides!
P.S. I just bought the Sena 50s do you have a video on how to connect to a GoPro to record while riding?
Hey Tall, just came across your video here of the 21 things you need to know. I'm working on getting my first Harley-Davidson Motorcycle. It'll be my first Motorcycle period! I'm a 1st generation German/American, so I'm seeing brand loyalty here. Thanks for the great tips on the "care" of the bike so it can last a VERY long time! Doug🏍️⭐⭐⭐❤️🐻😇👍
Such a useful video. Thanks so much. I've just got my third Harley, and learned a lot about it here.
Thanks for sharing that information
2017 in Southeast Florida. Thx for the tips!
Great video and very informative. I will use the tips for my 2022 Street Glide Special.
Man what a great video. I have been subscribed to you for alittle while now and every video I've seen has been awesome, and informative keep em coming Tall I've read my manual but seeing you describe how to do things makes it so much easier. Thanks again and keep up the good work.
I like to say Thank you for this video I,m riding 2022 Harley Davidson street glide special 114cc new to Harley my first one ,lovin it from Phoenix AZ ,Thanks again !
Thank you, I ride a 18 model fxfbs, and I'm from Warrnambool Victoria Australia..... the modes are bit daunting when you read them in the manual but when you watch someone do it in practice was a big help, thank you again.
That was awesome!
Thank you, sir!

Great info thanks for sharing.
2018 Heritage 114. Knoxville, TN. And I was fortunate enough to have a great group of guys take care of me on my purchase. Coming from a Litre bike, they made sure to go pretty in depth with the information needed, as well as common differences not only in riding, but in maintenance. Ken Glover at Kodak HD
Thank you for the great tips.
Thank you! thank you! thank you! I'm subscribed. I'm a New rider & new owner of a 2016 Street Glide Special. You answered so many questions in this one video. Please Keep up the good work and keep the tips coming. Great Job!

Very helpful for the information just gave I just bought a 2022 Street Glide Special
Really great video, thank you. Nice show room, with so much open space.
Perfect! Just what I needed! Been riding for 25 years and finally bought my first Harley (120th Ann. Fat Boy)
Hey Tall. Awesome video. I have a 2018 street glide. Bought my bike from my neighbor. It's in excellent condition since he took really good care of it but didn't tell me about these tips. I don't think he even knows so I'll share with him as well. Keep the videos coming and God bless.
2021 Road Glide Michigan - Great Tips that were not shared when I purchased the bike, this was very resourceful and I have added to my favorites to do all of the updates necessary.. Thanks
I love it, you are right on, I've been a motorcycle mechanic for 30 years, you can kill the brand, honda, harley, bmw, but you cant kill the motor, and the stripes around it, your colors are a representative of you,
Good things to be reminded of! 2018 Road King in South Texas
Great video! Thanks, I own a 2010 iron 883 with the screaming eagle 1200 kit. My first Harley and I love it!
