STS. New Bike.

[@CityNDN]

your old blue bike needs to be in a museum!

[@anthonymasluk2295]

Cheers

[@clarkrock114]

Harley Davidson should give you a free bike brand new. You are the best ambassador for Harley Davidson in history. They should be ashamed and embarrassed that they haven’t come to you.

[@veiledallegory]

Or the worst ambassador, because he points out what pieces of crap they are! It’s funny how people buy these bike because “they can work on them” instead of buying a bike you never have to work on!

[@bradleyyounger8499]

I've never seen a bike you don't have to work on. You ride them, and they eventually break. These old evos are about as good as they come and very easy to get parts

[@bendaves77]

He wouldn't take a new one unless they built him a brand new evo

[@modernvisionscc]

He would trade it for 3 used one!

[@PanM8]

​@@veiledallegory what fairytale world do you live in. A bike that never has to be worked on? Who makes it? I want one. Every manufacturer of bikes, cars, trucks, tractors, etc. have a service department. And their service departments are full of their respective products, in for repair.

[@paulhewson4600]

Congrats Scotty,, another 30 years of riding for ya Now!!

[@trekbsg]

I'd think a motorcycle museum would be a great place for your old bike, like Wheels Through Time. That bike has history.

[@ElectraWillem]

One day those EVO's will become a collectors item, once they all figured out that the new crap is over engineered with all those onboard computers and TV screens.Congrats with the new ride Scotty.

[@Curtis7391-t8q]

Been waiting for this video! The blue mule belongs in a museum along side Adam Sandoval old war horse

[@bullitt79]

I'd like to see a video doing a walkaround of Adam's old bike in detail.

[@dawnsearlylight784]

The bike made it 29 years completely unmolested….until Scotty got ahold of it.

[@paulwalker7202]

Congratulations Scotty!

[@cobaltt88]

NICE BIKE! Get some LED headlights and turn signals. they use a fraction of the power and last FOREVER ! and are extremely bright.

[@lonesometinman3147]

Auction sounds like a.real goodi idea Yep a piece of nostalgia right there

[@brandonsmith4367]

I had that exact bike!! It was my first Harley. What a great bike, it never left me stranded or ever let me down. Just regular maintenance and she purred like a kitten. I had some great times riding that beautiful machine! Enjoy it!!

[@bullitt79]

I'm STILL enjoying my '95 Classic (carbed). Just can't scream across the country at 95-100. Well, you could but it would be miserable.

[@stevejames6758]

Congrats!! I looked for a EVO Electra Glide like the Blue Mule. Got out bid every time . Ended up with a '10 Twin Cam. Love it. Cant wait to see the new one on the road.!!

[@powmanmoto]

I agree. Harley should give you a bike or some freebies. Definitely motivating me to get one. 😁 I think the auction is a good idea.

[@okinawadonkichi]

Congrats on the new bike! Looking forward to the "how to rip out the fuel injection and install a carbuerator on the side of the road in Mexico" video! 🤣 You know it's coming!

[@scootertrampscotty]

For now, I'm just gonna carry a few extra, used, injector parts. Maybe a carb some day.

[@peted2770]

I wonder If Harley would be interested in the Blue Mule? It would be an excellent museum piece for them.

[@robertverrigni4768]

Beautiful bike. That’s the way to go. Evo motors are great.

[@bradboustead1682]

Your new motorcycle has set a long time. You may want to look down into the gas tank for possible rust problems like crusty filter. Also, check cables for corrosion.

[@WestfallWorx]

That beauty will finally get the life she deserves. May she bring you thousands of safe miles!

[@honkey6373]

I think it needs to go to wheels through time museum.

[@conniewaite1371]

Yes!!!

[@DebtheReb1369]

Great idea, that way you can visit her whenever you want Scotty

[@MrDavid3846]

Nice bike, thanks for always sharing an adventure great video be safe.

[@fa7842]

I am actually seeing your interview with "Back Waters and Back Roads" a Gem. Thank You! Greetings from Switzerland 1.June 22:00 (10 p.m.) 13°C , rainy Fabio

[@bradboustead1682]

I have a '95 (carbureted). Some other mods for you to consider: Aluminum backing plate for air cleaner to replace plastic air box. Better inner cam bearing. The headlight plug is black plastic and will melt. Can be replaced with a ceramic plug. I haven't had any heat problems but my carb is rejetted and I don't run my lower fairings.

[@edwardsimpson1583]

Congratulations you deserve it, hope it takes you lots of miles, Ship it to Sturgis where you sell your book and raffle it off and sign it.

[@ericmckinney7350]

The blue Mule should be in wheels through time in Maggie Valley, North Carolina

[@shameless6963]

Absolutely agree, 'cept it ain't old enough. Maybe another bike museum

[@SheldonBrown567]

I watch all your videos Scotty, and this was my favorite! That ‘95, what a find! Good going 👍

[@StevenHerzog-e4f]

Sweet! Scotty, you are an inspiration. Your vids have helped so many riders.

[@stavroshatzistavridis878]

Wheels through time motorcycle museum should purchase the Blue Mule. This Bike would be a great addition to their inventory.

[@jeffkeni]

6 grand is a fair price. I'm glad you shared the new ride and drilled into the warts it has. I enjoy real world bike reviews based upon tens if not hundreds of thousands of miles.

[@trdxtrkr]

Congrats on the “new” bike. I believe’95 was the first year of the MM fuel injection. My current ride for the last 23 years is a ‘98 police edition road king with the MM fuel injection. I’m fully aware of the bad rap that the MM injection gets. One thing I have found, is that there is a mechanical aspect to this fuel injection system. Even though it’s fuel injection, it’s not a fly by wire like the newer Delphi systems. There is still a mechanical linkage that’s subject to looseness and slop that occurs through normal wear and tear. The manual says not to attempt to adjust the linkage. I found that anytime the bike has any issue with poor idle or sluggish performance under acceleration, was fixed simply adjusting the linkage until all slop and play and is removed. At 35,000 mi. I installed a EV27 cam, lifters, cam bearing upgrade, and adjustable pushrods. I also replaced the plastic breather gear with a stainless one. I also added a DFO which enhanced my throttle response. I now have 66,000 miles on it and she runs great! I did have a crank position sensor go out at about 50,000 miles. $130 and 1 hr labor (myself) and she was back on the road and has been running great since. The MM fuel injection gets a bad rap, but so far, I love mine. Of course, just like everything else that’s old, parts are getting scarce. Good luck with your “new” ride. Just remember that any mods you do ie; pipes, cam, and etc. will require some tuning. Happy trails!

[@ClovisPoint]

have a 97 Ultra ,replaced the head temp sensor ,after it kept stalling and the red trouble light coming on ,I like how it starts first go ,unlike the carbed FXD which takes a bit more .......cajoling

[@ClovisPoint]

there are some vids on YT doing just that adjusting the linkages etc

[@SecretSquirrel-et6dl]

A motorcycle museum needs to start a go fund me to by Scotty’s bike and put it on display.

[@joeharley87]

Good luck. I still have a 1987 electraglide.

[@noronronron]

Scotty the mule needs to be at wheels through time

[@scootertrampscotty]

It's to new for them.

[@Glyder1959]

Nice new horse Scotty. I still ride a 96 Evo. Have fun with it.

[@JamesReilly-en4di]

The benefits of knowing every nut and bolt, stay with what you know, keep it simple. Best of luck with the new bike scotty. Enjoy your adventures.😊

[@eloyrodriguez6562]

Howdy from Corpus Christi Texas once again. Its been awhile since I commented on your videos. Always enjoy them though. Congratulations on your new sled Scotty she's beautiful. Outstanding videos Always 👍 👍

[@jsprankel4712]

Congratulations on the new ride Scotty! Stay safe!

[@woodly1069]

Auction that bike man, I betcha there will be a LOT of people who would love to have it because they've been following you and would give it a good home while supplying you with finds for the road

[@fosterloy1425]

Talk to Matt at wheels through time motorcycle museum. He might be interested in your old one

[@conniewaite1371]

I would love for them to get it!,

[@m.f.m.67]

A semi-pro drag racer/engineer/mechanic once told me something I will never forget: "Stock is Trick!"

[@scootertrampscotty]

I like it.

[@Cacheola]

Awesome motorcycle, great year evo! Nice to find these bone stock barn finds, congrats! Great mods, looking forward to you swapping in a carb, imagine you'll go CV. Auction the Mule, she's been good to you, live simply

[@rogue5643]

Great score, Scotty. I would say all fluids need to be changed. Fork oil, brake fluids, and primary engine oils just to be on the safe side. I agree, leave it stock. See you in August.

[@jeraldwells-oo2dv]

Wow I'm Happy for you couldn't happen to a more deserving Rider Jerry Rapid City South Dakota USA

[@hippytrev7452]

big thank you for showing me that push solenoid starter years ago... it has saved my arss so many time's... cheers Scotty from Down Under....

[@garyshinn4626]

Put the Mule in that big bike auction out in Las Vegas, it should bring a lot of money.

[@oldchicago3216]

You should park the old bike inside Wall Drug if they'd let you or maybe one of the bars in Sturgis. A lot of people would appreciate seeing it.

[@TurnipGreen]

That's an awesome idea! ❤ Maybe the Full Throttle Saloon or Buffalo Chip?

[@jimsullivan306]

@@TurnipGreen GREAT IDEA

[@chrisakaloulou_mozart38]

Blue Mule is now getting to retire, she did good all the way long, so long Blue! Red strike is going to be very afraid of what will happen in her life, she thought to be an Icon of the past , revered like a Goddess, in her clean temple, never brutalized or pushed on some weird roads...well Baby doll, now you got to have a new lover, who doesn't mind to ride you far and hard.. good luck Scotty, this is another chapter, but Old Betsy will forever stay your favorite Mistress!

[@alkempton1512]

Really good video,nice bike

[@richard-hr4tw]

I ride a '92 FLHTP with 87K , an '80 FLT with 58K . Love them both . Simplicity and durability.

[@Zzus321]

The celinoid fix is awesome, I've never seen that,

[@ericwhitro]

Good deal I agree on the auction idea would bring some money for blue .You are a master Evo tech .

[@greatfulsurferdude]

Nice score Scotty. The older baggers are so cool. Love my 2001 electra and how is it easy to work on them without the computer crap.

[@ciminoscycles]

Congratulations brother! I can’t wait to see how this one plays out for you. Stay free brother!

[@paulperrigo3517]

Enjoyed the video. That's the new fad buying older bikes you can work on. Yes, auction the blue mule off. For the next guy to enjoy.

[@christanmitchell9466]

Beautiful bike scotty...congrats man!, you deserve it brother. Cant wait to see what you do with this and the adventures you take it on!...

[@sid5156]

Congratulations on the new to you bike man! I definitely enjoyed this video. Maybe sign then auction off the mule for $ 5 an entry. I'm sure enough people would be interested. Just a suggestion.

[@TREEHUGGAH1]

Congrats on the new sweet scooter. that color is awesome, really cool. Much Respect and safe travels.

[@oldmanwood5011]

Wow, man. What a score. Hope it gives you thousands of miles of happiness.

[@pureblood2020]

That is a very clean example. I had two of them. That should serve you well Scotty.

[@SEILLC]

My Evo has the starter button. Its typically only needed when when cold starting. When shes hot, the start button on the bars usually works.

[@bluoval3481]

Congrats on the new (used) bike! What a beauty. If anyone deserves this one, it's you. Because you will use the bike as it's intended to be used. Put it through its paces, ride the heck out of it, partner!

[@ArtD2368]

That's a lucky break on the price of your new old bike now you got a pretty bike again good luck Scotty ride safe good travels

[@FatHD1]

Super nice bike Scotty. Good find. And no molestation😁

[@woodsontr]

Nice looking bike! 😉👍

[@stefanocappella9612]

Beautiful. Similar to mine. I bought a 93 ultra classic with 18000 kms. The owner did a stage 3 on it and put an 88 kit on from new. 🇨🇦 looking for a back rest for mine

[@georgerobinson9275]

That starter button is amazing! I never have seen one of those before. Good luck with the crimson coyote!

[@Cacheola]

I'll throw 'red bull' into the hat

[@jman4995]

Congratulations!! And thank you for the update on your forks I’ve been meaning to ask.

[@arthurmanderson4892]

EVO is the best motor Harley ever made.

[@dictumfactum9468]

Never should have discontinued them. Engineers gonna engineer though.

[@tommylitchfield3450]

You should definitely auction off the Mule. You can kit the new bike out just like you want it and buy a sh!t-load of gas for what some collector will be willing to pay for The One, The Only, Scooter Tramp Scotty's ride. She'll be in somebody's private "museum" of scooter related stuff.... I run the Progressive cartridge forks in my 06 XL1200 and like them. I can't really say just how big a difference the new forks made, since I changed out the shocks at the same time, but it is definitely night and day difference between stock and all new Progressive suspension. The made in USA stuff they sell has a lifetime warranty, so that's a big plus. My scoot is the last year for factory carbed bikes, and I love the simplicity. I need me one of them starter buttons for a just in case.... I wonder how that plastic air cleaner backplate will hold up down south? My guess is, you'll be putting a CV on her soon. Not wishin you any bad luck on what you have, but I just don't trust all that crap and them miles of wire and sensors. She looks mighty fine!

[@peterv.2033]

Great bike, Scotty! Some rubber seals can be deteriorated (hardened), because of age. I have this issue on a similar story with a ‘81 BMW, which runs like new.

[@danielcarroccia1042]

Blue mull bike should go into a museum

[@marshall4759]

Congratulations on the new bike.

[@bendaves77]

Keeping the miles down on your Harley is like not touching the ol lady to keep it fresh for the next guy..😂

[@raybrdjr]

WOW, THAT BIKE IS A BEAUTY! IM HAPPY FOR YA SCOTTY! I INSTALLED LOWER FAIRINGS ON MY M8 THIS PAST WINTER AND TOOK THEM OFF BECAUSE MY TEMP WAS GETTING UP TO 320'S WHILE ON THE INTERSTATE AND I NORMALLY RUN IN THE 270'S.

[@okinawadonkichi]

Dude, you may want to get your bike looked at. If you are normally running in the 270s (oil temp) at highway speeds you may have an issue. 270 head temp is more in the normal range for an M8, albeit getting closer the high side. If you are stock, get an exhaust that gets rid of the catalytic converter and get a tune. My 103 twinky runs at 170-190 oil temp at normal highway speeds, above 90 for extended periods I will get to 210-230 (max), this is with no cat, upgraded oil cooler (UltraCool), and a tune (mo' gas). 225 oil temp equates roughly to about 280-290 head temp on an M8.

[@raybrdjr]

@@okinawadonkichi thanks for replying. However, that is with a dynojet tuner and tuned to stage 1. She has 106k miles and hasn’t had one issue engine wise. The tuner did get it down more than it was without

[@okinawadonkichi]

Good deal! Didn’t know which temp you were talking about. M8s have engine temp, head temp, and coolant temp, whereas everything before the M8 only has oil temp! 😂

[@raybrdjr]

@@okinawadonkichi yes this is head temp. It’s a 2017 road glide s stage 1 with 106,000 miles and runs flawless. I even have the same fucked up oil pump that had has revised twice.

[@KyleGrimes-qs8sp]

Nice bike Mr. K . Ride safe, my brother. You’re still inspiring me five years later, and I still have my original FXR.

[@RESTLESS_ERRANT]

The Mule needs to be in a museum; there are numerous, but surely you'd know the right one. I needed this inspiration. My dad is in his last days and we are just sitting around waiting. I was looking for inspiration on YT and found you... right on time. Thank you for sharing. Sending positive vibes your way. Take care.
