As someone watching you amazing video from Europe. I am always a little shocked how compliant Aussies are with random breath testing. It means the cops can stop you without probable cause. This happens no where else in the western world, as it's recognisd as an affount to due process and human rights.

G’Day Mate 😂, thanks for visiting my little channel. I guess I have never really given it a second thought, from memory RBT was introduced in the 1980’s, so ever since I have had my drivers license (1986) its always been a part of my driving life. Over here it is accepted mostly, it has had a major influence on fatality figures in Australia. I support it especially now most of my irresponsible days are behind me. It’s a very subjective topic I guess. If you drink/ take drugs and drive there’s always a chance you will get caught. Anyway thanks for the comment and thanks for watching. Cheers HR

To all lams learners... wear gloves and protective gear. Not like the host riding this bike
@HarleyRumble6 ай бұрын
People will wear what they feel comfortable wearing, it really doesn’t need your comments on my videos to try and persuade new riders to wear whatever. If you feel comfortable in full protective gear, great. If you didn’t wear any gear at all, great, I’m not going to tell anyone what they can and can’t wear. At the end of the day it comes back to the risk that people are prepared to take.

i think they are the best small bikes Harley ever sold. Brembo clone triple discs with stainless steel lines. ABS, 100% LED lighting. premium tires. 50mm inverted front forks. adjustable front and rear. great exhaust sound for 500cc bike. great fuel mileage and light weight. i understand these bikes are built to bring in new riders and not built for the die-hard HD fans. two thumbs up from me.

Your right, these bikes are targeted at a specific demographic but I am seeing some HD lovers that might not be able to purchase a larger bike purchase these just for the brand. They definitely have a bit of fruit on them as well. Cheers HR

How do you set these for your weight ? Apparently they come setup for someone pretty small 170-180 lbs.
@HarleyRumble7 ай бұрын
Hey mate, mine were not adjusted at all, I set the preload as per manufacturer’s specifications that are in a table within the instructions. To set the preload get the measurement from instructions the measure from top of collar down the thread and adjust with tool. The compression and rebound also have settings in the instructions. I have watched other KZbin videos and there is a lot of opinions out there, hence why I didn’t go through it in my video. I am still learning about this suspension but even the Ohlins that aren’t adjusted correctly are miles better than stock shocks. Hope that answers some of your questions. I will do a follow up video after a couple of months to let everyone know how they’re going and what settings I have. Cheers HR

Hi Jason, First of all you will need to be a member of HOG AU I think it’s about $80.00 a year, if you have brought a new Harley you get 12 months free. Then you have to join the Twin City HOG Chapter $40.00 a year. We have members from all over the country side. TCHOG Chapter members have access to organised day rides, rides that have an overnight stay, Gleeson’s Twin City Harley Davidson shop rides and apparel at a very good price. As you see in my videos we are all about having a good time. If you want more information let me know, I am also the Director of the Chapter. Cheers HR

@@HarleyRumble perhaps, though when you damage yourself you will turn up to a public hospital no doubt, it’s not that it’s KZbinrs who show a bad example to new riders who don’t have 50years of riding experience and who are more likely to deck themselves on a new bike - exactly the target market for these bikes.
