- I traveled out to the Hill Country to ride the most notorious motorcycle roads in Texas, the Three Twisted Sisters. And it was a wild ride!

***Watch for deer and hogs crossing the road. This is especially important around dawn and dusk. If there is no moon light, even more so.
Also, there is no cell coverage in places. Having a Garmin InReech is a pro-tip.
My buddy hit a deer at speed. He had a concussion and a broken collar bone. We barely got him out of there. His PE saved his life.
Done this ride many times. Its loads of fun.
Stop at the Bent Rim Grill for a burger and cold drink.
Shiney side up!
Agreed 8am to 2pm and back home never even drive a car out there at night, truck with a deer gard only.
I live Bay Area, CA and ride to Texas frequently for work. Had no idea this little gem was snug in the middle of the state. Definitely be paying a visit next time through on my MT-10. Cheers.
Sweet ride bro. Brings back great memories from when I was a young man in my 20s out driving in the TX Hill Country. Those were the days.
Glad you enjoyed it! It was a such rad ride.
I'm glad I live out here. Never get tired of riding in the hill country
I bet! Such good riding.
I used to live down in TX many years ago as a fresh graduate. Even before having an MC I used to love driving this road. I had a rental Ford Mustang with my girlfriend for a trip down to San Antonia and it was a blast driving around with the roof down.
Stuck in old Lubbock right now. Sucks to ride in. Hopefully moving to the Dallas area next year
Brother, just stumbled across your video, this riding is outstanding. Your bike sounds good, lovetheriding content. Looking forward to checking out the rest. Have wanted to ride this stretch for some time. Great cabin choice as well.
Thanks! I really appreciate it.
Awesome trip. Thanks for sharing!
Thank You!
Bro ! Awesome content, really enjoyed it. Thank you for sharing
Thanks! I appreciate it!
Awesome video! I’m from South Texas and soon I’ll be riding those roads! Thanks for sharing! 😊
Thanks! They’re a blast!
I'd eventually like to make it out there to ride those. Nice Vid!
Thanks! Yeah it’s a great ride, definitely worth the trip.
Awesome content!
Thanks!
Thanks for sharing this. I live about an hour from the Sisters and have yet to ride them, but your video is really enticing to get out there. Hopefully someday soon. I know... someday never comes. Take care.
Glad you enjoyed it! They're a blast, its definitely worth the trip.
New subscriber. Just got my new Scout Bobber and plan to ride it as soon as possible. Thanks for the video and great aerial shots.
@dawgridesagain8511 Thanks!
Hell yea nice work, I’ve rode there 1 time and it’s worth every mile
Thanks! Definitely worth the trip.
So you did it in the cold, and we just did it last weekend in 105 degree heat. Not sure either were ideal, but I KNOW we will be going back. Great area to ride. Cool angle with the drone footage! We hit coopers BBQ in Llano and that was damn good bbq! If you haven't been....check out the Ruidoso/Cloudcroft/ Mayhill areas of New Mexico. Great mtn riding there
Ah man I bet that heat was brutal. I just got back from taking a trip up to Taos and it was great, I’ll have to check those places out for next time I take a trip out there. Thanks!
Cool Ride! My second bike is the Indian Sport Chief
Thanks! I wish had the sport chief, I got my scout right before they came out. Might need to upgrade soon haha
Now, you have to ride the Devil's Backbone, in Central Texas...look it up.
I’ve been wanting to ride them too. I have a Scout bobber so nice to see a video with that bike in it. And Go Cowboys! 😅
Nice! Yeah it’s such great bike, I was surprised with how much I was able to pack on it for this trip haha. Go cowboys! 🤟🏼
@@cruisingwithkyle I saw how much you packed. I just got a sissy bar for that reason too. If you’re up around Fort Worth let me know so we can meet up.
@@SteelHorseTexasTwangExchange For sure man! I got family there so I'm sure ill be up there at some point.
super dope vid dog
Thanks!
I live in san marcos, maybe one day ill do it!
Thinking about doing it this weekend starting from Austin. Teh bluebonnets are out and stuff
It’s a great time of year for it that’s for sure! 👍🏼
Ha! Dude, I stayed at that same exact Cabin #1 at Oak Hills cabin and used the same coffee machine while I rode the sister on a Scout Bobber Twenty 😆 The place had no TV and which was cool since it gave me a chance to clear my thoughts on that porch. Only annoyance was the AC unit directly above the bed.
Haha nice! Yeah that cabin had a great vibe to it. It’s definitely going to be my go to spot when I travel back down there.
@@cruisingwithkyle The dad of the lady that runs the place drives around on the ATV with a dog and is a super friendly guy. I’m taking another overnight trip next week, hence why I’m browsing through videos of the sisters looking for different routes to and from there (I’m in San Antonio). I might stay at camp wood this time by Nueces river. Also considering the Marble Falls to Tom Hughes park area to ride lime creek road, but not sure if I can really make a two-day trip out of that. Likely just a day trip for the future. BTW, nice levers dude 👌🏽
Right on, it’s a great time of year to ride out there! I live in North Austin and ride that area lot, it’s awesome. Definitely worth the trip!
Hey kyle
,
I appreciate your videos. .
Good info ,
Awesome scenery ..
A couple questions,
How Are the titus bars
Doing as far as comfort ,
On the longer trips ?
Have you gotten rid the
Luggage rack that was on the bobber. Before the new seat. ?
If not ,are you considering
Selling it. ?
Thanx
God bless
Jef

Thanks! The Titus bars are great! I’m about to put bigger bars on but I would definitely recommend them. I’m thinking about putting the luggage rack back on but modifying it slightly to fit over my seat.
Kyle, my lady walks into the room as I’m watching this and she says “He looks like the Hamburglar.” 😂
Haha 😂 I’ll take it!
Imagine taking these on a CBR1000RR. I’ve been on the Twisted Sisters many times. My favorite ride though was on my CBR1000RR. We flew
I bet taking those corners on that was blast haha. Would love to ride it on a more sporty bike next time.
What month did you do this? I was there early November. The day I was there it was very foggy so I didn't get to see much, but it was fun no less.
I went around the middle of October. I got lucky with the weather I think haha, little chilly but the sun was shining.
Cool video thanks for sharing. I haven’t been out there yet. It doesn’t seem that much better than some of the roads around Austin. For example 1431 out to Marble Falls and the roads around Inks Lake or Lake Travis. What do you think?
Thanks! Yeah it’s not too much different really. The roads there are definitely tighter so it forces you to slow down more and not carry a steady pace the whole time. There’s a handful of back to back hairpin turns.
@@cruisingwithkyle I’m going to watch your Texas to New Mexico video next. A big ride a head of you to Canadá very cool. I’m looking forward to all the future vids. Hope the ride is enjoyable and safe!
Thanks! Overestimated my ability to travel that distance solo so I only made it to New Mexico haha. Still a great time.
@@cruisingwithkyle oh no, that’s a shame. What caused you to head back? Bike wasn’t comfortable enough, isolation, body aches, something else?
@@cruisingwithkyleHey Buddy! Thanks for sharing your Moto-Madness! Needed your advice: I'm visiting Austin from India. Got a bike on Riders Share and rode the twisties around Lake Travis (Hippie Hollow Horror) through Volente onwards to Jonestown-Marble Falls-Buchanan Dam-Canyon of the Eagles-Inks Lake-Long Horn and then back to through Hill Country Back Roads (CR334-CR335-Oatmeal-Cow Creek Road). It was killer riding but the Heat and Sun seem to have scorched all the colour out of the hills. Great fun nonetheless!! Wanted to ride the 3 Sisters but the views and roads seem identical to what I've already done and since I'll be renting the bike again, i wanted to know whether it's worth the spend?? Thanks in advance!
I just moved to South Texas and heard about Three Sisters. That was a dope lodging. How much was the cabin?
The cabin was awesome, it was around $100 for the night.
That’s not bad at all! Thanks.
Awesome video! Where did you get your gloves from?
Thanks! They’re the Deerskin shorty gloves from Sullivan Glove Co.
Hey where did you get that seat ? Looks great!
I got it off the saddlemen.com , you can customize them how you want it on there. It’s a great seat!
Nice video 🙏🇮🇳🇮🇳🙏
Thanks!
It’s pronounced LAAAAAKEY…. Not LEEEEEEKEY…. Nice video!!!
Hahaha whoops. Thanks!
Can you tell any difference between riding the bobber naked and the quarter fairing?
The quarter fairing makes a slight difference with chest wind but really doesn’t do too much. If you’re riding longer distances I’d definitely get something bigger.
@@cruisingwithkyle Got it. I really just want to minimize the chest wind on the freeway and keep the amazing look of the bobber. I might give this a try. Thanks!!
How many miles do you get out of that tank please?
Around 130
@@cruisingwithkyle Wow, that is a lot more than I thought you could get from this bike. Thanks!
How did you video your self riding?
I used a 360 camera (GoPro Max) mounted to my handle bars.
whats the cabin you stayed at?
Oak Hill cabins in Leakey. They were great.
What kind of bike is that
Indian Scout Bobber
literally the most beautiful part of texas is west texas....south of the panhandle. only part of texas that has actual mountains..
Absolutely! I couldn’t agree more.
The e is silent.. Leakey pronounced Lakey
The twisted sisters are a training ground for many real rides out west. Nothing more.
