Can A $5,000 Harley Make It Cross Country?

[@Boreascorax]

The thing about pre-Evo Harleys, and for that matter all older machines, is they'll give you back just as much energy as you put into them.

[@geraldscott4302]

Never understood the speed/power/performance/handling thing, or about riding a bike at its limits. I'm 65, have been riding on the street since age 16, have owned over 40 bikes, all of them carbureted, and ridden over a million miles. I have never even considered performance when buying a bike. It's always been about looks, feel, sound, and comfort. I like to hit the highway, and just kick back and cruise. Mile after mile. Just me, the bike, and the road. No phones, no stereos. As long as the bike will mostly keep up with traffic, that's all I need. I always stay in the right lane on interstates, and usually fall in behind an 18 wheeler doing about 65, and stay there. Speed means nothing to me. 1970s brakes work just fine. I currently have a 1989 FXRS Low Rider, and it is one of the most fun bikes I've ever owned. I bought it 21 years ago, and have had several other bikes at the same time, but that FXRS is magic out on the open road. Just rumbling along at a nice easy pace. If performance is your thing, then maybe a crotch rocket would be a better choice.

[@Mr39knuck]

You got that right…you sure got that right.

[@truthbetold-jq8iw]

At '72 I'm in total agreement with you, these youngsters don't know what riding is all about.

[@alkempton1512]

@@truthbetold-jq8iwthere is a generation gap

[@Longrider-fp1ez]

I suppose this is why they make more than 1 motorcycle for people to choose from. I had a crotch rocket when I was 18 but I have enjoy building performance Harley’s. 🤷🏼‍♂️ doing thousands of miles stuck behind a 18 wheeler does not sound enjoyable to me on any level. But I’m confident enough not to judge you, just ride the ride you like. 👍🏽 🇺🇸

[@gd6349]

⁠@@truthbetold-jq8iwRiding is all about what “ The Individual Rider “ enjoys . That’s great that you guys enjoy what you ride and aren’t worried about performance , but many of us enjoy the performance aspect of riding . I am soon to be 61 ( in 10 days ) and I ride my 2007 Yamaha Roadliner ( 113 ci ) like I road my Sportbikes , and I can tell you both right now I was Drooling when Adam did all the Upgrades on his 2024 Roadglide , and if I had the money I would make my 113ci Roadliner into a 122ci , I would upgrade the suspension and make it haul butt even more than it already does . I also would upgrade the brakes , and then I would ride it even more like a Sportbike when I Felt the Need for Speed and getting through some Corners 👍😁 The only thing we need to understand about others on bikes , is the fact that they Love being out on two wheels , getting some wind therapy . I have a shirt that says it best , “ Some people have Therapy , The rest of us have motorcycles “ and another that says , “ Feeding My Soul , One Mile At A Time “ with a picture of a big cruiser road bike on it 👍👍👍

[@DebtheReb1369]

You need to have Loctite and a tool kit with you. My boyfriend rides with spare parts and tools in his old leather saddlebags on his '75. Parts literally vibrate off as he rides. Riding an old Shovelhead cross country is sketchy. I rode with my ex to Sturgis from Maryland in 1984 on a '59 Panhead. It took 4 days. I was 20. He was a great mechanic and nothing vibrated off, and we had no problems. Poor Mike, his bike needed some VTwin parts. That's where you buy parts for old motorcycles. You used to be able to buy parts at swapmeets for old motorcycles. Davenport, Iowa has a great old parts swap meet. A memorable trip for you two for sure.

[@DJPTEXAS]

Those were great times Deb...

[@mikeskidmore6754]

I bought a Buell in 2022 in Souix Falls SD I needed to mount a phone holder ect A Ram Mount the HD Dealer didn't have one but a Power Sports Dealer 1/4 mile up the road did. I camped in my pickup for two nights at the Twin Cities HD Dealership. For Goodwill to them I bought a Tube of Locktite. I paid $13.00 for a tiny tube in 2022 at the HD Dealer for what Home Depot sells for $8.00 for 6 ml in 2024. I used to buy 50 ML bottles for $15.00 Now NAPA wants that much for a 10 ML bottle

[@Lucky..B]

GIRL You know Your Shovel Heads . Same for Pans Nuckles and Flattys .lol

[@QuadeQuick]

Bro, your explanation of riding at a bike's limits was right on. Several of the commenters have other viewpoints, and that's exactly how riding should be - an individual sport. There's no need to disagree or judge; if you happen to be riding with somebody who does it differently, find a happy medium. As much as the government and even manufacturers try to categorize and divide us, real riders should know better. 🤙

[@Longrider-fp1ez]

I agree with this

[@deniporter3321]

Don't know why, but it gives me a certian amount of satisfaction, to hear Adam talk about the thrill of riding "an old ride". Before all the modern technology. A Harley Chopper was and is the perfect example of "excited to ride".

[@SaddleTrampTV]

Agreed. Riding my FX shovel on a road trip is way more of an adventure than on my electraglide. Kickstart only; foot clutch and jockey shift; the more the sketchy the more the rush which equals priceless adventure.

[@JoeybarriosBarrios1971-in6xy]

I ride a 94 sportster 883 and it's comfortable at 65 miles an hour not fast but I just enjoy the slow cruise the sound of the drag pipes all I need , my buddy has a 2001 dyna he always likes to ride like a bat out of hell and honestly it takes the fun out of it , I like to enjoy the ride and views that's much more enjoyable

[@martincvitkovich724]

In 1971 I rode a 1951 20 y/o pan. In 1979 I rode a 30 year old 49 Pan. All of my riding buddies had these old machines and we would ride them 1000 mile round trips on a 3 day weekend, sometimes out for 10 days. Aside from a few brake failures (fixed using roadside debris) and generator failures (fixed with matchbook covers), we had little trouble. In a nut shell we were great mechanics when we put our experiences together.

[@adamsandoval]

That’s the stuff memories are made of💯

[@timmygtruckingstories1687]

Adam I love what you’re doing with the campground. My wife and I stayed there a couple months ago in your freedom camper for veterans and absolutely loved our stay. Cindy is a great hostess and it was really cool to finally see her husband and can put a face with the name now. Looking forward to staying with our group in one of the cabins next year!

[@FTW_74]

[@lex7062]

Loved this episode. I will have to make time for me to take a trip. Never understood cruisers, specially loud H-D. Ride a BMW 1200 GSA for 12 years good on long stretches, cuts corners like a sport bike, best of both worlds. I thought that until I went out and tested a used 2019 H-D FLHTP. Ride it for 1/2 mile and got the dealer to deliver it. First ride out scared the s# out of me, very torque, heavy, leaning in turning was awkward. I forced myself to go on a Sunday morning with very little traffic and took a full day trip. I managed to reset/rewrite my thinking and adapt the riding stile for this new iron horse. I guess it is true what they say, you have to ride it to understand it. Despite all this BS with the company, I love riding it and I will keep riding it. Look forward to see more videos from you. Be safe.

Coming from a detailer that is ocd about his bikes, if you get gas like that on your bike, wash it thoroughly, and yes it will wax/buff out. If it seems to dull a little, use a good clay bar, then buff after. Use Griots wax’s, and chemical guys spray detailer in between. Paint will look show finish. That bike is the same age as me, making me feel old, but damn what a sweet bike! Be safe brother! 👍✌️

Those bikes were built when 55 was the speed limit and they are geared accordingly so they run best around that speed

I made a decision when I bought my Low Rider in 2018. I was torn between the street glide and the Low Rider. I picked the Low Rider because it was really more fun to me. I’ve put 62,000 miles on it since I bought it. From California to Florida, 50,000 of those miles with no windshield. I added that a couple of years ago to keep some of the cold wind off during the winter and liked it enough to leave it in. Great video.

Your sign looks great, when me and my wife stayed there on our 13th anniversary back in May this year. your carpenter was still working on our porch so the manager moved us to the crows nest, what a great time we had staying there and riding around on our bike. I had a 1981 Shovel head I called Frankenstein because of all the parts and peaces that broke or fell off on the highway. The motor just was not balanced correctly from the factory when I took it apart it had spun the bearing races in the engine case ruining the motor. I fixed it and traded it in for a 1986 FXST custom no more problems just maintenance that's it for over 30 years now of owning it. The trouble with Shovel Heads on back to many hands on them through the years. Glad you all made it back ok the best rides to remember are the ones you break down on and fix it and keep going.

Adam that's one hell of a rode trip. I like what you said about knowing the limits of the bike your riding. There's 5 bikes in my little shop here and I know how hard I can ride all of them but one. The old ASPT Ironhead Sportster will run out of brakes real quick if you push it. The Super Glide just likes to cruise at 70 in 6th gear. The two metric Adventure bikes will make you think your better than you are and I haven't found the limit on the new Honda XL 750 Transalp. Just picked up a 03 Low Rider with over 4K of aftermarket parts on it including 2K in shocks and springs ( Poor man's FXR! ) I tell my riding buddy's all the time you ride your pace and I'll ride mine.

Welcome to the shovel head club Adam. Been following you for a while first comment. I bought my first new shovel in 1978 FXFB I think? As soon I got out of the USAF. As a SAC (Strategic Air Command) Aircrew trained killer I was ready to cut loose a little. I had it a couple months before a not to be named 1%’ers club stole it. Took the insurance money and bought a used 68 FLH chopped. Tons of great memories on those bikes. No other Harley sounds as good a the ole shovel. Ride on brother and thanks a ton for all your support for us as vets…we got NONE! during the 70’s.

My Gold wing is a 2002 1800 has about 98 horse power goes 150 ish. But goes 75-85 all day. Love those long rides 2000-5000 mile rides. Seeing the USA. Enjoy your new bike😊🎅🏼🏍🇺🇸

Adam I rode a 56 straight leg frame with 77 shovel motor and 48 hydra glide front end. Rode that bike all over the country for 12 years. You need tool kit with bolts nuts tape wire etc so you can fix most issues on the rode.

That must have been quite the experience

[@adamsandoval]

💯 agree!

It was fun and wild times, I rode that bike from 1978 to 1990, you have to remember back then everyone was riding shovels pans, me having a brand new 77 motor, I felt like I had one of the newer Harley’s on the rode. It was fun but I like my 2022 FXLRST a whole lot more. But I am 67 and don’t think my body could put up with riding a ridged frame. I love seeing the young guys resurrect the old bikes and ride the crap out of them. That is Harley Davidson tradition!

Another great video man. If you're ever in wyoming..... let's ride (:

Rocky point? There's dispersed camping at Ajo AZ and then further south Organ pipe NP campground before you cross the border

I can relate to what you're saying, I have a 95 Fatboy and a 09 Roadglide, the older bike is just a better ride, but I did more work on the 95 like the seat, pully ratio to bring the vibration down and handle with a bat wing faring.

The tank paint will be fine. Clean it, wax it with some quality wax. Thanks for taking us along. Where are you leaving from on the Mexico ride on Nov 7th? I'd like to ride along.

Rode pans and shovels but I am Evo to the core. EVO’s forever

The conclusion RIDE, of 62. Been waiting for you to drop this off. Looked like a awesome, rural type ride. As I said awhile back, I bought the damn BIKE, waiting on prescription glasses, cause I couldn't pass my eye test 😢 soon man...soon ! I CAN NOT WAIT 🦿🇺🇸

[@adamsandoval]

Congrats on the new bike!

[@KevinHarrison-u3u]

@adamsandoval thanks Adam, see you out there, if it's the last thing, I do...👊
