It was hella good to see you all you guys. It’s been awhile since my internet life and my real life collided. It’s nice to see all these thoughtful comments that I haven’t been forgotten. It’s been a few years since I posted, and somehow in business ownership years it’s been a week. Weird how that works. Super proud of you, Block. Doing the thing, and having fun. Thanks for not forgetting about the ol’ retired KZbinr, and stopping by. Even if you did just want to rub it in that you get to make epic road trips, and I get stuck working 😂

[@BlockheadMoto]

Miss you man, and the community does, too! We’re gonna kidnap you one of these days and force you to go on an epic road trip with us on these machines we work on all day! 👍🏼

[@PapaSancho666]

Good to see you still wrenching and doing your thing. I enjoyed your videos as I started my own harley journey. They gave me the courage to change my own fluids and do things on my own. Cheers man.

[@Big88Country]

You'll never be forgotten Bro, you are in KZbin Forever Land!

[@fps636]

It was you, me, and my bike in my garage every weekend. You and Itchy, the pioneers of the East. Dirty thumbs up on my helmet. We have a well known older guy in the Detroit area named John Maxwell, excellent Harley engine rebuilder. I had my John (Georgia) Maxwell beanie on at the eye doctor. This grey beard asked me where I got my hat and said he was John Maxwell, ha ha. That's how we meant in person!

[@randyservello64]

Miss watching your videos maxwell great content and awesome facilitator.

[@Firestorm637]

John Maxwell was the inspiration for a lot of people

[@roegiersmusic]

I miss John Maxwell!! He is the OG of how-to Highly Trained Unprofessionals!! Great to see and hear him again! 🤘🏻😎🇺🇸💜

[@frankvernol6911]

Maxwell hasn't put a video up in a real long time anyway. He did great stuff wish he didn't stop but wish him well

[@hughjanus590]

Yep I wished he never stopped also

[@bowesmobile4649]

I agree. John was dope.

[@chrisg2k1]

He made his money on KZbin and quit lol

[@brandonmacon3317]

​@chrisg2k1 Yea...That's why he's busting balls in a shop everyday instead of going on 1000 mile adventures every other week like most boobtubers... Between running his shop and doing his own thing the way he wants and family life the mans busy. It's called the Real World 👌

[@batt3687]

Actually bought a 2018 FLHCS thanks to John’s videos. Wish he was still making videos

[@FlipandTheBlueMule]

GREAT TO SEE HIM AGAIN !! THANKS FOR STOPPING BY THERE

[@jasonfrost2895]

John was the best ! I literally looked everyday for his new videos ! Wish he was still at the dealership ! I'm sure he is doing what's best for his family ! Good thing we have you now Mr. Blockhead ! 💪🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺😁

[@theoldmanflynchmotovlog4846]

I hope KZbin is still paying him, every time i need to refer to youtube for motorcycle repair and his videos pop up, i always click on them because he made them in a way that was clear and entertaining.

[@dsherburn]

Great to see Maxwell again. Hopefully he will come back to youtube.

[@figgy0673]

It was so good seeing John Maxwell. I so miss his content

[@jaredmcnutt731]

A dirty thumbs up for the Maxwell visit.

[@kurtisstanton7859]

Great to see John Maxwell again. He used to put out some great video's. I hope his business is doing well.

[@gunsnrides7248]

Thanks for taking us on the ride and it was nice to see John again keep on riding

[@2WheelsSometimes1]

Fantastic series, looking forward to the choppers out there. My wife and I just got back from a 1700 mile trip down to Glacier National Park, Yellowstone, Chief Joseph and Beartooth Pass. All on an MV Agusta F4. That was a long hard ride. But a great time, and beautiful country.

[@oregonoutback7779]

Good to see John Max is doing Well 😁 I miss that guy. Glad you all survived the adventure and are still speaking to each other 😵‍💫 Thanks.

[@jumperjosh1732]

man.. its good to see Mr.Maxwell doing well!

[@TrikesNTreats]

I missed John, glad he is doing well. Wondered what happened to him.

[@funshine3571]

I used to watch all of john maxwells vids. Sad to see him go but love the update. Glad he's livin the dream!

[@Jaycat48]

I miss Maxwell too. Come back John!

[@justinturner4850]

Dang! I used to watch John Maxwells channel all the time! Good to see him again!

[@lelap2239]

best hot weather gear is a cooling vest with a mesh jacket over it. You get a swamp cooler effect where the water evaporates slower and keeps you cooler longer. Great seeing John Maxwell again, miss his channel. As always, great content

[@RandyJohnsonRikthove]

Fantastic series. Appreciate all the hard work that went into this!

[@youmustbethistall5861]

Great to see @TheHarleyTech thriving in his own gig. We do miss your videos; probably the best mechanic led information I've ever seen. And Blockhead - your buddy/travel videos are the absolute best to watch. Keep bringing some of those among all the other bike material you share! Thanks!

[@JDY517]

I miss John’s content but understand why he made this move 👊🏻 respect

[@brandonmacon3317]

Love the guys at Maxwell's motorcycles. John and the whole crew are much appreciated in GA 💪👌🤘

[@T600INFILTRATOR]

Been a Harley Davidson Technician for almost two years now, got a job at a dealership when I left the military. John Maxwell was my inspiration to wrench on bikes, I had no idea what I was going to do with my life after I ETSd. Thanks John, you're my hero

[@HarleyGeezer1954]

John Maxwell was my inspiration. I miss his videos.

[@MeettheotherBrowns]

Thank you. I was hoping someone would pay John Maxwell a visit.

[@chriss19827]

Loved his channel he has helped me alot with things on my bike by watching his channel.

[@Countryboybiker]

I miss the hell out of Maxwell. His channel was the first I ever subscribed to. I wish you the very best brother! I hope all of your dreams come true! I will find a reason to make it down there for some kind of service!

[@bav114]

I miss John Maxwells videos. Great to see him again.

[@richardlindsey7112]

The Harley tech and Adam Sandoval were my first 2 motorcycle subscriptions. Thanks for bringing him back even for a moment

[@journeyofjerry820]

Glad to see you ride Blood mtn. I live very close to it and is part of my local loop ride. There is 2 other awesome rides right next to Blood mtn. Richard Russell PKWY and Wolfs pen gap.

[@waynebastian3163]

Good to see John again,miss his videos.

[@RedOutlaw1911]

Loved these set of videos. Can’t wait for it again

[@AdaMoto83]

Awesome trip. Get the next one booked. Also I’m on a epic road this this week tho so this just got me super pumped 🤣. As always great work guys

[@dcobb3120]

My favorite part of going to Gatlinburg is getting out of Gatlinburg and getting lost in the hills. Great series y'all. Can't wait for Chris' inaugural vlog adventure.

[@dcobb3120]

It was also good seeing Maxwell again.

[@jimtrice6668]

Great trip! One day I hope to make a trip like that. Thanks for dropping in on John Maxwell. Used to love watching his stuff. Maybe one day he will be able to KZbin some more.

[@jumpingjack4725]

Man I miss John Maxwell content. It was great to see him doing well!!

[@thanosetsitty1896]

John had the talent to be a KZbinr. Missed watching his videos and I’m glad he’s doing good. Can’t wait to see you all ride together someday with john on your channel.

[@st3ib]

You touched on it at the end of the video, talking about how you’re going to give your thoughts about your current set up. I think it would be really interesting to hear everybody’s thoughts based on the bike they chose what they would change or do differently. Great video as always, love the channel.

[@noelpogiako1]

It's been a long time. I finally see your face in this video. You such a nice guy reaching out with John Maxwell. I miss his video contents as well. Great job Bro 👏 👍🏻 🙏

[@righteous247]

Pretty stoked for you to check out the blue ridge. I live in NC and take them for granted. Time for a trip this fall

[@223remington3]

I am glad to see the stage 4 on a long-ass ride. There have been questions about engine wall thickness/engine temps. Keep up the quality work, fellas.

[@PotatoeJoe69]

Holy SHIT finally some ANSWERS! Been wondering where tf he went. Figured his new shop took off and was taking up more time than he has.

[@areikUSA]

It's good to see John still at it 🤘

[@luish8056]

Great to see Maxwell doing well.

[@wskeyson3382]

@ 10:00: Never wake up in a hotel room with a bunch of dudes saying "my butt hurts", Lol!

[@generichards6497]

Cool, you were around my neck of the woods up on Blood Mt. Was just up there yesterday coming back from Tn. Stay safe out there.

[@petecarvo9284]

"I'm used to having to hold my own." Me, too, John. I miss the days of wasting a couple hours going through my favorite KZbinrs' videos like John Maxwell, Shadetree Surgeon, Blockhead, Biking Bird (before he started talking shit to so many commenters, me included), Photogromer (family happens, man).

[@petecarvo9284]

And you, Blockhead, should come up to the PNW with Shadetree. We have lots of room to stretch Goldzilla's legs.

[@BigXam]

I remember Maxwell put out a short video he put out on vacation saying he had a big surprise when he came back. Then a year later I was worries something happened to him and checking he was alive, but just never followed up the video and went Mia. Wish him well still!

[@redbeardfred8561]

Block you need to set up an arrangement to have John video and send it to you to have edited and post. Maybe do a merch split and keep the John Maxwell experience alive for us!

[@KeViNMCMXXCIX]

Seems like a great dude! Wish him all the best like you guys!

[@woofersd2383]

Good to see Mr Maxwell again. Wish he’d start posting again.

[@chucktheobald4931]

Great video! Seeing John Maxwell was very cool. Riding content was great as always.

[@RobertJones-ix2hu]

Over my phone speakers that bathroom vent fan sounded like a damn riding mower starting up 😂

[@newbornlog2789]

I love Maxwell I have been looking for his stuff for years now

[@billyfinch7341]

I wondered what happened to John Maxwell, he's the one who got me watching KZbin, your channel was second and got me upgrading my 2022 Lowrider S, been a faithful follower ever since, I do miss Mr. Maxwell however, Aloha from Maui

[@Aaronkt]

Glad to see Max again , I miss his KZbin videos

[@joshuawaters151]

I’ve made that last leg from maxwells to Orlando. Gotta love that cruise control

[@Big88Country]

Looking to hit The Hills all around where you guys were at. Hopefully we can take at least 4 days of pure mountain riding. I am currently in the heat of Eastern NC on the coast and the riding here is nothing like in the hills, can't wait to go as soon as the heat breaks. Appreciate all you guys sharing with us!

[@jetdoctn]

Visiting Maxwell's shop is on my bucket list, hope to do it soon.

[@dtr6432]

Love seeing all the sights I get to see in Georgia. Beautiful area up there.

[@michaelmitchell5909]

Another great video from the king of moto vlogging on you tube, Blockhead....man I gotta get out and put some miles on my road king....

[@nikkik6412]

I have made a lot of tweeks and changes and undone some of those over the last 2 years on my 21 RGS. Stepped up from yamaha 650 and sportsters. Nearing 30K, I'll hit it before end of Sept. When I saw Blockheads face reveal I thought "it's John, nope it's not". Maxwell was the first Harley content youtuber I started watching when I wanted to do my upgrades myself, all old content but still valuable! I was looking for a bar exchange video seeings that is my next project this week and adding heated grips. Gets cold riding year round in Maine!!!

[@jasonwhite7462]

It was awesome to see John again and that he appears to be doing well.

[@fps636]

Yeah!!! A ride with the Block Posse & Maxwell the Man would be epic!!!

[@rogerkennedy8849]

Nice to see John again miss his content but love yours

[@trippontwowheels]

Best of luck to you both!

[@jaxchrisfla10]

Stopped at that same exact parts store next to the gun store/pharmacy a few times on our travels through Blairsville!

[@DrTabarnak]

Dammit Wes, you trudge through the trenches with the homies. No Irish goodbyes.

[@gregorr1404]

Heading there at the end of month. Smokey mountains bike rally. Looking forward to it

[@billypilgrim6770]

Highlands and Franklin nc are in my backyard, I’m about an hour from highlands I was riding all through highlands, cashiers, sapphire and brevard on Friday!

[@hawkeyeforabargain]

A bit hard to hook up with you guys from Australia , but still enjoying the hell out of your video,s . Stay upright guys .😅

[@pierrotleblanc3449]

Nice to see that John maxwell is still alive and kicking. He was the 1st guy I followed on youtube.

[@HaXaW5150]

I was just at The Dragon two weeks ago. Awesome ride.

[@bradstoddart5567]

That logging truck looked like something out of final destination!

[@Rockeys_Chop_Shop]

If you do decide to ride a Grom on the Dragon, I highly recommend the Smoky Mountain Small Bore Rally. It’s a blast. Centers in Townsend TN. Happens in June.

[@roadgliding2818]

Great road trip always good content !! Look into riding cooling vests work great

[@jaja91951]

Wasn’t ready for the Dom and family skit, needs that laugh 😂

[@79SctDriver]

Great video. Oh, and I live walking distance from the gun store you guys were at. Ride Blood Mountain often. It’s a small world!

[@thomasrodriguez1931]

7:58 yeah that chief fairing throws the head around a lot. Hard to get in a comfortable spot on it for long rides

[@cyberpunk4622]

Adventure! Great video as always.

[@tennwingman3350]

Block, the hot weather trick on the long trips is to keep the sun off you. I use a mesh light colored jacket and wet the cool shirt underneath and it will cool you for about an hour and a half. I have been doing this for many yrs and it works. Cool points go right out the window when it comes to staying comfortable on long trips. Be safe, have fun.

[@HD_Dyna]

We did that same road. Like 4 waterfalls in a few miles. Really didn't want to ride back to flat florida lol

[@shoomapadoo1141]

Ok. It was nice to come here for exactly what I needed to hear.

[@wanderinggander9286]

Road trippin' with your homies is always an adventure!

[@petrinkyle]

Big dirty thumbs up to this video miss you John

[@lazzyrj1]

We miss you, John !

[@RG9591]

Much better with noise and chatter, Blockhead is a coool dude.

[@fmac452]

@blockhead what is the first place y’all ate breakfast. Going through that area early next week.

[@darrylarvidson3558]

Come ride New Zealand with me bro, Far North to Deep South. Done around 8000km for the Burt Munro Challenge in February.

[@willbe7442]

Yes! I was so curious where he went. This video will be interesting.

[@johnproctor3071]

That whole trip had to be a blast.

[@hj1smith]

Great story good to see John again. Be aware Cherohala Skyway is closed due to washed out roads. Still plenty of good riding. Let’s go 🇺🇸🐾🍻

[@badlsxgarage]

If Chris is planning on riding Cherohala skyway soon….it is closed. I went last week to a MESS!! Apparently the road has washed away and they are not sure as to when it will be open. You can ride part of it, but when you get to the bald river falls area it’s all closed. Just a heads up. Good to see Maxwell! Wish he would start doing Tube again but I get it! Good video! ✌️

[@Taino871]

That is an incredible view!

[@pauly680]

How was riding that many miles on the saddleman step up ?

[@richardrussell500]

I miss John Maxwell... I wish him well :-)

[@lesmurad8467]

I for sure miss John Maxwells videos.

[@tex9280]

The Harley Tech... John Maxwell & Maxwell's motorcycles💪🖤🧡🖤💪 I'm always repin it here in 🇦🇺 in his t-shirt & got his sticker on my pick-up & on my helmet too "A BIG DIRTY THUMBS UP".... When he was at the dealership was when I come to YOU TUBE.... & NEVER miss a video from him.... I actually not long ago shot him a msg telling him I miss his channel & his content.....
