    I totally agree with you brother, the heat and humidity in my area ( Westport, MA ) has been brutal the past week or so. Black Jack is looking awesome 🤘🏻💯!! Harley-Davidson of Rochester NH is an awesome dealership!! Great customer service and great staff!! I talked to a Saddleman representative at Laconia Harley during bike week, and he told me that they don't make much for my bike ( 2002 Fat Boy ) they told me to check out mustang seats, which was weird lol. But I do need a new seat. Just need a good Gopro and then I'll be able to make some cool videos lol. Awesome stuff John and great video!! Keep up the great work and ride safe brother 🤘🏻💯

    To your point and speaking on the Cardo, that doesn't guarantee that the CarPlay will work. Mine when down when I was on a 2500 mile trip. Have a back up plan but be patient, the bugs will get worked out. My back-up plan was my phone on the handlebars

    I had 3,000 miles on my commander 3's and had some brutal vibration in them (diagnosed by Harley Tech). Contacted Michelin and they sent me a new set of Commander 3's. Put 4,700 miles on tires and had same vibration. Had Harley check all wheel bearings, neck bearings, and they diagnosed it being the tires again... Roughly 2,500 miles on Dunlop American Elites NO ISSUES at all. Just my experience.

Everyone I've talked to that has them swear by them. So hopefully they are right. Cheers terry from 🇨🇦

    @hogluvr1 Před 4 dny +1

    Good stuff! Getting ideas for my eventual 24/25 RG. I'm rockin a taller KW windshield on the 17 SG. It looks great, but the nature of the bat wing gives me turbulence despite the wind skimming over my helmet. Having demo'd the 24 RG, the factory deflector seemed ok for the whole five minutes. I like the still air bubble, but at 6'3" am undecided how tall I should go.
    You nailed it with the SE Stage 1. That's all I've ever done to my last few bikes. Just a little more pep & bark, staying reliable. Shiny side up & be safe.

  • @johnmccormick6689
    @johnmccormick6689 Před 5 dny +2

    Just starting the video but hope you get into some components. I assume we’re dealing with a throttlebody/manifold situation that similar to previous years. Therefore leaving the only solution being a big bore kit clutch basket work and lots of air for the engine. Keep the videos coming because we’re all writing for our speeder bikes… George Lucas and musk are going to make them for HD… just like Buell but better

    I enjoy your videos. I've owned 8 Harleys:
    2005 Night Train, 2016 Fat Boy S, 2017 Street Glide special, 2020 Low Rider S, 2021 Road King special, 2021 Road Glide special, 2023 Low Rider S, 2024 Road Glide. I've enjoyed all of them. The Harleys I've owned served a particular purpose as to what type of riding I wanted at that time. I've owned 8 Ducatis from Naked to Sport touring and have concluded that you can't compare certain brands. With my experience to me Harley Davidson has no true competitors. I believe that the 2024 Road Glide is a solid multi-purpose motorcycle, with that being said you do need above average degree of skill becauseit'sa big bike. The 23 Low Rider S is also a great multi-purpose motorcycle leaning more towards manuverability and compromising in touring comfort, requiring a little less skill than the Road Glide needs. Looking towards your new customization. Check out my customized 24 Road Glide. I went all Harley Davidson parts this time except for my S&S 2 into 1. 😁.

    Just under 6000 miles on my 24 road glide. Had a crank seal go around 3500 miles, rear tire and barrings changed for free under warranty at 5k service. They didn’t know why they wore so fast. My gps thinks I’m In Canada and the dealer told me they had no fix. I got the plug for CarPlay from Tim, works excellent. Other than that it’s a beast. I got bassani 2-1 and a screamin eagle tune.

    Love and look forward to all your content. Quick question. I too bought a 2024 Roadglide and I love it. I wear a modular full face helmet with a cardo. Using apple carplay is no problem. But. When I ride with my HOG chapter we all communicate with the cardos. It seems the new bikes can’t do both. I either talk with my buddies, or I connect to CarPlay. Is there a solution to this? Keep up the good work

      Stuart, I have a 23 CVO Road Glide. Make sure to only have your phone connected via Bluetooth to the bike. Then make sure only your bike is connected to the Cardo. You lose the option to use the voice activation of Siri, but you can use the voice command button on the handlebars to activate it. When you try to have your phone and bike both connected to the Cardo, they fight over the connection. Hope this helps!

    Congratulations on your Road Glide and your plan for an 11,000-mile motorcycle trip! That's going to be amazing, and I'll definitely follow all the videos! I have a question since I'm very interested in the 2024 Road Glide. Why did you choose the chrome version instead of the black engine? Is it a matter of taste or maintenance? I've had several Harleys, and I found maintaining the chrome quite challenging before and after each ride... What are your thoughts on this?
    Thank you very much 🙏

    • @CYCLEFANATIX
      @CYCLEFANATIX  Před 3 dny +1

      Yeah, I think the black and chrome is just timeless. Looks beautiful whether it’s now or in 30 years, and I feel differently. I feel as long as you’re on top of all of the chrome it will always look great.
