Hey Danny, we missed you bustling Colin's ball 🇺🇸

Great to see you back on two wheels Danny

I've assumed that Collin is the owner of the dealership, never seen a owner work on bikes in the United States. Well done Collin!!

Colin is the owner of that dealership yep

I ❤️the Aussie banter. That Colin with MDB are a comic double act .😂😂👍🇬🇧🇺🇸

[@ursusaustralis1]

At the 20 minute mark I suddenly realised that I had a sore face from grinning at the enjoyment of such a simple thing as a ride with a mate. Thanks Danny...

[@Ben.jack.in.off.to.you1]

who wouldn't have a sore face from grinning.

[@stickers8447]

Bought a bike from these boys a few weeks back, everyone I dealt with was spot on. Col should be very proud of his team

[@dwaynemurphy814]

It's so good to see back to your old self, good to see Colin and the gang at the HD shop, everyone looking well. That pan head is nice, we have a dealership here where I live, that has one identical to it, one owner, the one whom owns the dealership. As i said good to see you all back and doing well. Be safe.

[@Phillipeddey]

Good to see you back up and running.makes me happy

[@nakedarse2507]

Good to see some familiar faces and some Bogan Boogie ....

[@eman4013]

Col is just one of those characters that makes you smile no matter what mood you're in., An gunner best fucking advice I've heard in ages, stay happy people. And look out for each other. You rock Danny 😁

Awesome video Danny! Thankyou for the laughs during this lockdown glad to see Colin and lads doing well 👍

bloody good to see the banter again

[@pietrogilbo697]

The Bogan putting smiles back on peoples faces.A Harley and a good mate to ride with is a great starter.Collin is a classic dude.Every HD dealership could learn from this great guy.Some real guys still around.

[@condal32]

That's what I love about old Harleys, they start 31st time, every time! Great to see the vlogs back Danny!

[@friedrichcrump6145]

That’s how many people watching.

[@fredflint1797]

Bought my '62 for $240 down, $40 a month for 2 yrs when I was 19. Hardest money to scratch up ever! Kept it 24 years, many changes. Had it in tune well enough to win many a beer starting on first kick ( trick to it!). Later, I lived on that bike for 2 years homeless.. I regret selling her the most, and miss that bike, but none of my 3 ex-wives....!

[@browngreen933]

Can you tell us the trick?

[@jonomasonILoveU]

Good on ya mate. Yeah I miss my old Harley, first electric start Sportster XLC1000.

[@fredflint1797]

@@browngreen933 when setting the timing, put the timing mark slightly toward the front of the hole (retarded). It's not enough to noticeably affect performance, but it does help starting. Then I installed a bending carburetor. It's basically the same design as a linkert, but you gain an accelerator pump. Two squirts on the throttle (eliminates the primer kick), hold one quarter throttle for fresh air, and bang! Keep clean points. Worked best with motor cooled down. Every bike is different, so practice what works for you.. Results may vary based on one's ability to kick the shit out of it...

[@fredflint1797]

@@browngreen933 my bike was an flh, so it had slightly higher compression and a 24 tooth engine sprocket ( I believe fl's came with 22). I ran a 24 tooth counterpart sprocket instead of the stock 22. Smoothed it out on the highway and gave me opportunity to downshift at highway speeds for passing. When the low rider came out, I found I could walk the dog right by them when she was wound up

[@johngifford7725]

@@fredflint1797 So many guys guard that knowledge and won't share it with the pups. You're a man's man, and an absolute legend for sharing like that. I've always felt the success of the next generation is a reflection of the character we showed when showing them. I appreciate you showing us. Hopefully some of the young guys will take up an old steed and put that knowledge to use.

[@fireforgedathletics]

Good to see the man back at Geelong HD.

[@richardwebster7740]

Just made my day watching this, stuck in a lockdown in Victoria. Please keep them coming Danny.

[@BobsGT235]

It's so great seeing you back at the Harley shop having fun. Cole is a legend.

[@ANONYMOUSBIKERUSA]

waking up the echoes of an old blokes bikes circa 1962 is just cool twisting the same throttle, squeezing the same clutch and kick starting the same pedal that some bloke did brand new in 1962! cruising some of the same roads possibly resonates with riders globally! super cool 😎

[@PanM8]

This is why I'll stick with my 65 Electra Glide, Panhead. When I was younger I could look "cool" kicking it over. Now I'm old and smart. I use the little black button on the right handlebar to start it.🤣

[@greg3166]

Appreciate the work you put into these videos to keep us entertained and sane! Cheers Danny

[@alisonwaring7500]

Great to see you back looking so relaxed, doing the thing you love and spending time with colin and the team loved it. Carry on living the dream and letting us share it with you xx

So good the have you back. Even better to have Col riding with you. Put a smile on my face. Thankyou!

[@tomb.8485]

I sold my 85 FXRS a few years ago. I have some days of missed nostalgia, it was a fun bike to drive. My 2018 FLHX ANV pulls me right back to realty and I don’t miss the FXRS (and the oil leaks) too much after riding the Street Glide. I have the king tour pack and hammock seat for it and long trips. I happen to be finishing up a long ride right now. Started just north of Chicago and went to Baja California, Mexico. Came back into the states and visited Zion, Bryce Canyon, Arches and Mesa Verde National Parks. Crossed back east to Alabama and now heading north currently in Tennessee.

[@o.t.goscargrouchygrouch8384]

So good to seeYou, Col and the boys still giving each other the same wise cracks as before BB. My days so much better now I’ve seen this.

[@yeehaa6942]

Thanks for the vid, so great to see blokes being blokes around each other. While I'm sure Col and his team find it an inconvenience it's really helpfull to see people interacting when stuck in lockdown. Thanks again, you've given me a massive smile today.
