Great points bro! The Harley community is what surprised me the most. 99% are extremely cool people
Foreal!
Love the video man, I dig the humourous elemenets! I may be the VP of a riding group, but I mostly ride solo for the reason you mentioned. Most riders take forever to do what they gotta do at a stop and they want to stop a lot. I'm like you G Kue. I like to get up and go (early), go at a good pace and not do a lot of stops. It's about riding, not about standing around a gas station.
Man you said a mouthful! Gas and go well eat a nice meal when we stop for the day 💪🏽😊
My daughter and her husband both ride but what they call going out for a ride is heading to their favorite bar for a drink and a bite to eat then off to the the next bar. They do the same thing in the winter on the sleds. They have never done a long road trip.
I have yet to ever go ride with them because I like to ride and only ever stop for gas unless something cooler than me on my Road King catches my 👀🎉 unless my day trip is one where I intend to make stops to enjoy the beautiful views inside the parks.
G Kue make sure you plan for lots of stops when you do your going to the Sun road ride in glacier park.
That is one ride you will not regret stopping every five minutes.
✌️
Exactly...it's all about the ride!
Whew! Point 5 hit the nail on the head! Great video
Thx Rho!
Great point about the cost of a motorcycle. Even if you avoid upgrading just purchasing riding gear can add up quick. But getting out there and forgetting the worries of work and other stresses is good for the soul and makes it all worth it. Keep it rubber side down 🤞.
It definitely adds up very quickly and faster than we imagine!
I agree with the long time at gas stops that is a huge slow down
Hugeeeee
Man you are so spot on with the gas stops. Drives me crazy when on long trip and every gas stop brother practically undresses just to getting gas. SMH 🤦🏾♂️
Lmaoooo
G. you ain't never lied, I'm glad you put it out there.✌🏽
Ijs big bro
Thank you for sharing as always great tips!!!!!!!!!!!! Ride safe out there
Thank you so much!
Might be 1 of your best non riding videos. Love the humor.
Thank u! ✌🏼
Dude a clip of Wood Jr at a gas station taking his time would have been the best. He totally has a squirrel moment every time he stops at a gas station.
Lmaooo
All great points, nice work. JUST BROKE MY LIFE TIME piggy bank and got the cash deal of my life time dream of a "NEW" Harley Davidson... 2023 soft tail Sandard, the only one me me because I refuse to finance. This is my 4th Harley in my life, but this is the first new one. I DID PURCHASE my 2023 Softail standard at Twin Cities HD, Lakeville, Minnesota, USA, Diego and all the folks there did me right on the deal. I paid extra to have drag bars put on her before she rolls out. spent a year at a few dealers and Twin Cities HD, Lakeville, Minnesota, USA are tops in my book. Still riding my 2018 Kawasaki Zed 900 naked for those zippy moments. Keep up the good work. Like your style.👍👍👍
That is awesome and I'm glad they got you taken care of on your new bike! Stay safe and ride free brother!
good points all around, liked and subscribed.
Great attitude!!
Thank u!
Dag on bro! You hit every point that I was thinking!!!!! Love your channel bro!!
Thank you friend!
Great video….. when I trade my bike in I take as many add ons I can take off an put on new bike .. #5 u are so right .. that’s y I mostly do trip alone ..✌️
If I can get value. I'll let it go with the bike...otherwise...I take mine off too!
Good pts about the custom parts. It may help sell the bike quicker but you'll never get all that money back. Better to put the original parts back on and keep your aftermarket parts for the next bike or to sell separate. 👍
Totally agree!
Another Excellent and Entertaining video my young brother!! I am enjoying your new content!! We sat here and laughed out butts off!! EXCELLENT EXCELLENT G!!
Continue doing what you do sir, and when the rice gets done… give us a call because now….WE HUNNNNGREE!!!!😂😂😂
Keep up the GREAT WORK!!👊🏾👊🏾
Lmaoooo thank you so much!
One of the happiest days in my life when I finally became a HOG! Harley’s are like Barbie Dolls! Accessorize, Accessorize, Accessorize! 😊✌🏻 Loved the rice! 😂
It's like no other!
On point! Grew up 20 minutes from the falls. Summers on Lake Ontario fantastic, winters not so much.
I can't wait to go back!
Excellent video!
Thank you!
Big Facts G!
Love the rice at the Fuel stop rant!😂
Lmaooo bruh it's always someone that gotta eat a ridiculous amount of food at a gas stop!
FACTS Bro! I know I've bought the same thing a couple times, had things painted a couple times. lol.
Crazy huh!?
Great tips bro!
Money pit bro...lol money pit
Love this Video and bro….. that Back drop art is amazing!
Thank you!
Everyone of these is absolutely true!!! 💯 We don’t make rice but Sam can be a little slow at gas stations some times! 😂
Insert________ to eat. Some people have to have a full meal by any means necessary lol
As Always. Excellent video Sir.
Thabk you!
You got me bro, I like longer gas stops…lol
Yeah like a mini rest stop. I agree those gas stops are for hydration and stretching 2 hrs on the bike then 15 to 20 minutes helps me enjoy the riding experience. But if the conditions call for a quick stop I can do it.
I do small breaks but when we got 13-14 hrs days...we gotta make the most out of the daylight. But you are correct! Stretching and hydration is extremely important!
Ahhhhhhhh lol...I'm like mannnnn we gotta go! We been here 30 minutes and still have 8 hours to ride lol
Yeah, just did a 1382 mile round trip ride from southeast Pennsylvania to Myrtle Beach South Carolina and back this past weekend. Went down to see my brother and to have Amsoil Adam at Myrtle Beach Bike Week install a set of Love Jugs on my 2022 Heritage. 12 hours each way on the road. Did 5 gas stops each way. Each stop was enough to gas up, check engine oil, Mother Nature call if needed and to grab some water. Each stop no more than 20 minutes, less time if Mother Nature call not needed.
That's how it should be!
Another great one ☝🏾
Thx bro!
The rice cooer had us rolling...We organize many group rides and definitely can relate to people taking all day at stops. BTW Kake purchased he Gold wing F6b from a Harley dealership. And yes they are a great group of people...Even though she purchased a Honda from them, they still invite us to all their events.
I can't do all day brother, especially if we got a long way to go. 😄
Truth! Great video!
Thank you!
Good stuff. I had no idea motorcycle tires cost so much and wear out so quickly.😢
The costs has gon up soooo much! It's crazy!
I get road commander 3 off the net both tires for 450 take to shop mount and balance for 50 per tire so around 600. My local Harley dealership charges close to 1k. I live in one of the most expensive places in the u.s.
@Sparky Spark Yup, I buy tires online. I've tried to do them myself but getting the bead to seat can be a challenge. Hit and miss.
@@bluesriderDF dang you bust your own tire's, your a real man.
@@bluesriderDF
I do my own tires and have no issues with setting the beads.
A little lube makes a big difference.
Just want to make sure and take plenty of time balancing them perfectly.
Awesome video brother! Fantastic and accurate points all around, plus it was damn funny. 😂
Keep up the great work!
Thank you! I tried to switch it up a lil bit...glad you enjoyed 😉 stay safe and ride free! Peace ✌🏼
@@JustGKue I love it man. It’s really refreshing to see some straight talk mixed with creativity and humor. Especially in the motorbike world. Keep ‘er between the lines friend and stay safe out there!
@@dustinranck7388 respect to you friend! ✌🏾✌🏾
@@JustGKue right back attcha! 🤟
First time I've seen your videos, very good presentation...amusing...true.
Thank you!
All true… well done 👍
Thank you sir!
I would say the best thing to do is to figure out what features you want on the bike. Search for a used one and then purchase it. There are bikes that are already customized and may have most if not all of the major things you want on it. That is less money coming out of your pocket. Then you'll have more time on the road enjoying the bike versus having it in the shop being customized.
Lol, that's funny as hell. Thanks for sharing
Thank you so much!
Money pit point hit home. It's a constant outflow of cash on something just about every month. But I don't drink or have any other vices...so my Harleys are my vices. Ride safe and enjoy. 👊👍✌️
Same here!
Amazing points
Thanks bro
Maaaann me too!! I dislike when someone takes forever at gas stops😮💨. I be like YO, let's get back on this road😒. Like you said, "Gas and go baby😅". Great video✌🏿💯!
Thx brother! You know how it goes lol
Thank you G Kue
Np!
Solid video!
Thank you!
Great video, pot in the saddle bag🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️🤣🤣
Lmaoooo
All great points! 💯 % 😂 Alwatlys keeping it real. ✌️
Thanks friend!
That 1000 maintenance fee was a beast!
They gonna get it out of you one way or another!
SPOT ON with all of these for the most part......although I have usually done pretty well when I sell my bikes....guys want them because of all the stuff I did to them and usually try to lowball me, right to the point where they say all my add ons dont increase the price and I say fine, I will take all that off and return it to stock... :D. Figure your addons are worth about 40-50% for the COST OF THE PARTS....you cant include labor....and you will usually get close to that back....if not, remove it all and sell it on the side....
Agreed!
Facts bro!
💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
Thats why i buy used HD's that have low miles....under 10K...and as maintence and replacement parts....I buy aftermarket...(Dennis Kirk) and (Cyclegear)....Great low prices....and i do 90% of the work myself...
That's a great way to go about it for sure
all were on point i think i got a good deal on my bike trade in was fair even though i aint realize my trade in had a salvage title when they did that i felt like ill do business here vs trying to shop more round especially when the bike i wanted with all extras was right there
💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
This video A+ 👊🏾
Thx brother!
I just hollered 😂that pot took me out 😂😂😂
Lmaoo
You are a very cool man.. infact you are a Gentleman....i never had a bike 😂..im planning to buy a Harley Davidson...soon i hope..
You make me more able to buy it ..
Thank you man....be safe
Big wishes 🇸🇦💐🌴
Go for it! its amazing!
The dealership one goes across the board for sure. I went to 2 different Indian dealerships the first one were assholes the second ones were amazing and ended up buying my bike from them it’s really about the environment their in if it’s a smaller dealership their normally under more pressure to just sell and not care about the customer as much
Agreed!
💯 Bro ❤
Show me the lie lol
its almost worse then owning a boat always braking out another grand for something from dakatoa digital gauges, handlebars, upgrades for stage kits on engine, better seat blah blah never ending i own a trike and damn just never ending. Also so true never meet a rude rider always willing to help see someone broke down always stop always kind and helpful so much of what you said is true man ride safe
The money pit never ends lol but luckily there's great people to meet and hang with along the way...stay safe friend!
Great words of wisdom,right on point,as always.
Thank you friend!
The rice at the gas station had me cracking up 😂
😄😄😄😄
Got that right. They are not the same
At all
Rice cooking!!!! 😂😂😂😂
Too damn true.
It's always that one person! Lol
I thought you was about to whip up some jambalaya with that pot homie😂😂 All. All valid points peace army chief 🫡
Lmaooo some of these dude really like that 😆
Good info - I’m looking at buying a Harley unfortunately recently found out they partnered w bud light smh - hopefully Harley backs away from this or I’ll be spend my $$$$ on another co that ain’t pushing an agenda I don’t align with.
They did? Thats something I gotta look more into because that's wild if it's true.
@@JustGKue yup bud light got a can of beer w the Harley logo -- smh - won’t take my $$$$ if they go down this bs route
I like them 6 speed "trannies", but 7 speed would be even better!
😆
If you really wanna spend some money on a Harley Davidson, get a shovelhead. You'll be buying parts that you need that you won't have much time to put into it what you want.
I'm actually lookin for one!
The rice though! 😂😂
Lmaoooo it's always one dude!
What is something you wish you knew before buying your Harley-Davidson? Lmk below!
Check out my ride to daytona bike week below!

Backing it up, Picking it up, & Parking it! 😊
No, some act like they are doing you a favor showing a bike or even talking to you
Facts
That's what's up 😊
Thx brother!
Man I rode with those that did that 10hr break at the gas station
And act like they are taking a long time lol
@@JustGKue The video’s were dope
Real talk bro 😂
Lmaoooo
Lol I roll up every stop 😂😂
Lmaoooo
Agreed. #5 especially for me! So annoying!!
May I add your brand new Harley will sound like a sewing machine...Stage 1 STAT (at a minimum).
Definitely agree!
I have owned Harleys my whole adult life but never purchased a new one, never have I ever spent over 7k I own an Arlen Ness show bike that I bought off of craigslist for 6k with 3300mi. I never deal with dealerships for anything, just a huge rip off. I am totally that guy who smokes on every break... I don't do hotels I pack a tent, when I'm on the road I just push in free camping.
Cigars or Cigarettes? Lol I'm like hey man we gotta roll!
@@JustGKue that's really funny because I usually smoke cigarettes American spirits 15.00 but recently started smoking talon cigars but they are more like cigarettes 20 in a pack for 2.23. I'm down man, I'd be honored to have a UA-cam STAR as a road dog... I'm not very techy and don't want to put my number for everyone to see...
@@JustGKue sorry I thought you meant ride together when you said roll, my bad
@@SparkySpark-ch8vi I'm not opposed to that either! 💪🏽💪🏽 shoot me an email brother
@@JustGKue shot you my email but I guess utube deleted
All facts bro 😂 💪🏾💪🏾🔥💯
Right! Lol
It's sounds familiar bro!!! about gas stops
BigMike from Gainesville FL
They aggravate me lol
Tell me about why they burn oil, and how l get one that doesn't.
Everything burns oil over time. But with Harley motors that's how they are engineered. It's not a drastic thing though
truth
Where the lie brother!?
The actual cost of buying a brand new $30,000 Harley-Davidson off the showroom floor.
1. $700 new seat ( because the factory seat sucks)
2. $1200 new handlebars ( because the factory handlebars suck)
3. $1500 in accessories ( because the factory accessories suck)
4. $600 for a new wind shield ( because the factory wind shield sucks)
5) $800 for LED lighting ( because the factory lighting sucks)
6) $400 for riding boots ( because your Walmart boots suck)
It's expensive!
$800 for lighting?
I have a couple grand just in lighting on my Road King.
💯
💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
THE RICE 😅
Lmaooo
WORD 😎
😎😎💪
Ha! Funny cooking rice at the rest stop. One more thing you can add to tell all the younger guys: #4.5--Just because you bought a Harley doesn't mean you're going to meet girls/women, in fact most of the time all you meet are a bunch of dudes. Nice video, hope you're road glide repair is coming along.
Great point!!!! Damn that would've been awesome to put it in!
@@JustGKue It's all good man. You could do a second 5 video with some other funny stuff.
We have 2 dealerships in my city one is awful I wouldn't send my worst enemy to them the next is 10/10
That's exactly how it is.
where in the H are those fuel prices over your shoulder at?
In general when riding long distances on a trip the gas adds up...heading to Vegas last April it was over 40 to fill the tank
It definitely becomes a pit 🇺🇸👍👍👍
And don't realize it until later on!
Gas and Go

Bruh cooking dinner lol…..they be working my nerves

✌🏾thank you
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 RICE

What does that have to do with anything?
LMAO.
Don't judge me lol
Pssst! Here's my secret... Just buy a Japanese bike instead. It'll be cheaper and more reliable!
😊
What is so special and secret about this “advice”? Nothing.
Who said it was special? 😆
