    For future journey 's J&P cycle sells a one gallon gas can that fits inside the back part of your saddle bag. You and the boys may want to check them out.

I'm also a member of a public safety motorcycle club, good to see your brothers from the job on this ride! As always, stay safe!

    It really helps to know the approximate distance to empty using the trip gage. Also here is a little pro tip. I take two empty SeaFoam cans and fill them up with gasoline leaving a small space of air for expansion. I then wrap the two side by side with some duck tape recap em and into the saddle bag. Its 2 quarts of gas for emergencies like those

    Good stuff brother. Glad to see everyone’s bike mechanically strong, covering great territory and enjoying the company along the way. Gotta tell ya, you guys all bond and mesh together for big rides like this, is Gold. As important is content over our bikes, our travels, riding in weather, equally as important, is knowing the boys you’re riding with, and how they can roll without complaining. They always say you never know someone until you travel with them….lol. I’ve had a couple buddies, who became one and done, after an invite for a 4 or 5 day road trip. A bad wingman can ruin a trip…. Could be a future video! 😂😂😂🇺🇸

I know you always have good stuff, can I ask what helmet and glasses you have? Thank you Dan

    So, I started carrying one of those little amber LED strobes with me a few years back. One of those little flat/pancake types. One late afternoon on the shoulder along a freeway gave me the puckers. I've used it a few times since and at least cars realize I'm on the shoulder.

    My Victory's fuel gauge never worked right, even watching the mileage, I ran out of gas twice over the years... Both times my wife was riding with me, I never heard the end of it 😐 Until I told her it was the "extra weight" aboard that caused the poor fuel mileage.... 🤣😂 ... 👀

    I am glad that you got the bike going and with a group. I had my 2022 Nightster leave me stranded due to the implosion of the fuel pump. Luckily a fellow biker stopped and got me a tow. I know that both my insurance company and my HOG membership offers a tow.

    First let me start by saying love your videos. I have a question i see you been riding with a saddleman seat with all your current and past bikes. I currently have a mustang seat and was thinking of switching to saddleman can you provide your thoughts. everywhere i read it says it needs 5000 miles riding to break it in that sounds quite silly. what are your thoughts.

  • @ontheothersideoftheroad
    @ontheothersideoftheroad Рік тому +3

    Every rider should know his bike range by setting his "Trip" A or B to zero and experimenting with mileage so you know what mileage capable is of the bike. Most 6 gal tanks can go 200 miles depending on your bike setup most bikes that have been modified in Stages will obviously get fewer miles out of a 6 gal tank. My last 15 Limited stock was able to get between 190 to 210 miles. My current bike 19 Limited with a Stage 2 will get me 180 miles seems to drink more gas.

    As you get older, sleeping is a bitch. Ask me how I know. I exercise before bed and sometimes sit in the hot tub. It works for me. I get 6-7 hours of quality sleep. I have not seen 8 hours in over a decade. I am older than you. As for gas, carry octane additive. I use Amsoil octane boost and their Quickshot additive to combat the really bad ethanol fuels. Parts of America is absolutely beautiful. HD fuel gauges have always been inaccurate on my bikes. I never run it below a quarter tank.

You would think for all we pay for these machines that they should be dependable and things should work as they are supposed to, especially on a newer Harley like the ones you guys got. I could excuse this happening on a 10- 20 yr. old Harley but I guess unfortunately the joke is on us. 😐
