It was time to self reflect and figure out WHAT I WANT

[@davehoover6699]

I absolutely love your channel. Of the 150 or so channels that I follow, yours has become my favorite. I love the fact that you include the fam, and the no nonsense approach you take. Very refreshing. I am headed over to become a patreon member for the first time ever, for any channel, and I have been a KZbin junkie for at least 10 years! Please keep at it, and expand, you got the right personality for us regular day to day guys and gals, and the content you put out is thoroughly entertaining. Appreciate you brother. p.s. you have inspired me to believe in myself when it cones to working on my own bike. I also applaud Ally (hope I got that spelling right) for her bravery. That she rode that sporty back from Sturgis, with a broken kickstand lol... She's a beast bro! Love your shit, don't change, and keep dreaming the dream!

[@GilstrapGarage]

What awesome feedback. I appreciate the support, brotha! I believe everyone should be able to have their idea of fun on 2 wheels 👊🏻✊🏻

Dude. Keep doing what you do. You guys are sharing the life I on!y wish I could have! You ride, you two have fun, your wife is now riding (congrats!). My wife works an opposite shift to me. I work days, and she works afternoons, so our time is limited. It's great to see you guys enjoy yourselves! My wife won't ride, (that's better for everybody), so she will be on permanent backrest duty. That being said, wives who love harleys, love being on them and doing the things us knuckle-draggers do are hard to come by. Keep it up! Cheers from Amherstburg, Ontario. Canada.

I feel ya' man. We have been on opposite schedules until just recently. It made it difficult to match energy while we had time together, because one of us was always tired.

[@Jaysonic3423]

Your channel, Unaffiliated channel, built on beers are some of my fave channels to watch All of you are just your normal selves. no KZbin overblown character. Just regular dudes and that resonates with a lot of viewers. It makes things more relatable, I think. I dig it. I also appreciate your how to, or, garage stuff, as I am NOT mechanically inclined, but, dictated by the economy, I've started, within reason for now, to do as much wrenching on my bike as I can. Keep up the good work, and stay safe!

[@GilstrapGarage]

I appreciate that, man! I prefer to keep it real

[@TheLamont1974]

I’ve been watching your videos for quite sometime ! I enjoy them because you are just a down to earth guy who likes to ride and wrench ! I think with your wife riding her own bike it will open up your channel to a bigger audience! I think you would be a good candidate for the motor company to reach out too and work with ! Good luck with channel !

[@keepgrinding99]

Love the videos keep doing you bro! Ride on be safe! Love y’all both ride and enjoy it! Your wife cracks me up I kno she scares you to death! I like the love you have for her that’s awesome

[@GilstrapGarage]

Thanks brotha!

[@gasmann6746]

Good luck with the goal, as a content consumer consistency and honesty is the main thing the quality and range of content will follow I’m sure. You do a great job now to be recognised by the Motor Company would be awesome 👍🏻🇦🇺

[@GilstrapGarage]

Well, thank you for consuming my content! 😂

[@danieljuhl3524]

With her now riding her own beside you it might be time to get a pair of Senas? She definitely has taken to that bike well!

[@alygeee112]

We have lexins !

[@harleydave2316]

Ive been digging your channel for a long time now and enjoy watching you wrench. Harleys are my passion and did the youtube thing for a couple yrs with a decent sub count for a small channel. Im burnt out on making videos but sure do love to work on my bikes still. You and Aly are super awesome and not just because shes hot. Haha. You two really need senas or something though.... 😂❤😊

[@GilstrapGarage]

We have the Lexin Comms, we love them. But she always swears that she cant figure out the button to talk. Super frustrating, but we will dial in the communication. I appreciate the ongoing support!

[@WESTCOASTBAGGERS]

What mount you have for your power vision tuner ?

[@GilstrapGarage]

It's a Ram B-347U

[@LHawk-l8f]

I think it's cool that she wants to ride her own. My wife tells anyone who makes the suggestion that she's quite happy to be a fashion accessory on the back of mine . 😂😂 Old Road King with a full tour pak, which she affectionately calls her chair. Be patient and communicate and you two will have more dang fun running around on those things. Otherwise it's all about priorities and balance. Do what makes you happy as long as it doesn't take away from family, everything else is replaceable.✌️

[@GilstrapGarage]

Aly was fine on back for a long time, but she got the itch and it never went away lol. For what we've got in to that sportster, it wouldn't be a problem at all to hand it up, sell it, and walk away knowing she gave it a shot.

[@BIGFOOT.]

I would think a brick with your sticker at harley would definitely get some attention

[@GilstrapGarage]

that may not be the kind of attention I want LOL

[@SushiTattoos]

Y’all need some senas or headset

[@alygeee112]

We have Lexins !

[@vwhallucination2647]

Can i ask why you didn’t like the 360 camera?

[@GilstrapGarage]

It takes a lot to edit. The 360 camera (in my opinion) is great if you edit with the app on your phone. It makes great short form videos. But editing the 360 video in Premier Pro with the newest mac computer available, it uses so much ram that it takes hours to edit about 30 minutes worth of footage, and I’ve found the image quality is not great when it’s edited outside of insta360’s app. I’ve tried all the export settings possible and just can’t seem to get it right. The juice isn’t worth the squeeze for me.

[@moto-rollin]

I noticed you put a windscreen on the sportster. Which one did you use and how does she like it? Also, Ally why did you piull over twice with no notice? Your loyal followers want to know!!

[@GilstrapGarage]

We put on the Memphis Shades Rio Grande, actually the same one I run on the Dyna. I’ll let her answer to why she pulled over, I don’t remember 😂 I can’t remember if it was a wardrobe malfunction or a phone thing

[@moto-rollin]

@GilstrapGarage thanks to you and Ally I had to get my girl one. We got a great deal on a 2008 sportster 1200. She is watching your videos every night!!

[@GilstrapGarage]

@@moto-rollin hell yeah! That’s just means we all gotta get together and go ride now haha

[@alygeee112]

I had to pull over because my shirt kept flying up and exposing my fat flaps lmao
