The FXR is in Need of Repairs After Only 200 Miles of Riding!

Hate to admit it, but the #fxr had a few issues. Nothing crazy, but unfortunately we had to pull the bike back on the lift to get a couple of things sorted before this year's #polarride. With any build, expect a couple of things to go wrong, and this build was no exception. But we were able to work through them just in time! Also, Justin introduces a few more upcoming projects that will be slowly being worked throughout this year, so get ready for loads of content, 2024 is just getting started!

Plenty of car channels out there I scroll right past Kruisie’s car videos an only watch what I’m there for, the bikes an bike culture.

[@eric_fxbb74]

I love how clean your fxr is man. Build the SS for sure!

[@clubstylegeorgia]

That FXR is stellar!! Killer bike, get the killer SS to match!

[@jasonmiller5448]

I’m a new subscriber but, I’ll watch the tech & tips all day…. Sweet bike!

[@Me.MyMachinist.and.l]

Thanks for the input!! Welcome to the channel

[@jessespenc]

I prefer 20-30 minute videos. But I’ll watch your videos no matter how long they are.

[@user-bl8bn4kb8m]

I will watch whatever you put out, 5,10,20,30.. all good as long as you keep talking and explaining.

[@Sota_adventures]

I work in the hot rod industry so I say get the car going! I also wouldn’t mind seeing some of the work on the kids builds, love watching my Kid work on his stuff and helping the next generation.

[@Me.MyMachinist.and.l]

Def going to try and get Justin’s sold on camera as they are working on the bike. Should make for some great content to look back at years down the road

[@josetijerina7641]

Would love for you to get that car that’s been in your family back on the road where it belongs 🤘🏼🇺🇸

[@bvailes775]

I like the longer videos......and I just gotta say, I LOVE the two tone look of that motor with the bare heads. Looks AWESOME!!

[@Me.MyMachinist.and.l]

Right on!

[@daveatkinson4201]

Your videos get better every time and I love what you do with the bikes I have 5 Harley's now just got my first FXR so excited about that need to sell some of my others 😢 see you on the next one

[@Justwant2ride]

Yes!! For sure would love to see you do work on the car!! 🤘🤘

[@timphillips8966]

Here’s the thing… we tune in for two reasons; 1. The content 2. We like you guys as people. It’s like you’re a friend, a familiar face that shares the same passion so watching your vids is like hanging out with a friend that makes cool stuff so longer vids are preferred IMO. Capiche? Carry on…

[@Me.MyMachinist.and.l]

Happy to have ya with us!!

[@kap419pres]

I personally like the longer videos. Like 30-45 mins is perfect for my attention span. I tend to fall asleep on the really long ones. Which is probably better for the channels I watch because I play them two to three times to watch all of it. 😂

[@jimmyrustles8118]

Personally I dont mind the longer form videos, I just run em in the background while doing other stuff on the comp. Agree with you 100% with the Harley clamps being a cleaner setup as they dont leave the mounts on the forks, and had to laugh about the alloy art motor mount. Sometimes you just have to try for yourself!

[@Me.MyMachinist.and.l]

I’m stubborn, really wanted to prove everyone wrong on that mount 😂😂

[@bradleyyounger8499]

67 chevelle is my vote. Love bikes but 67 is my favorite chevelle of all time.. had one back in the 80s I wish I still had

[@nobutada55]

15 minutes is the best "happy" medium. Overall you get the watch metrics, if people are only watching half the video then it's too long!

[@STAYHUMBLE302]

Krusie has a great format and longer videos definitely longer 💪👊🙌

[@STAYHUMBLE302]

Also what’s your thoughts on pull back riders on the fxr platform I know with my m8 softail fxbb I run the lucky Dave’s 13 with pull back cause you kinda sit more back on the softails how did you decide the pull backs compared to straight risers ?? Love this build man gotta get me a fixer !!

[@gonefishing5867]

I like fxr content cause I have an fxr.

[@davidyager8817]

Looking forward to seeing more.

[@gonefishing5867]

Long videos every now and then but long videos take a lot of time to watch.

[@diablo.josh.1229]

Heck yeah! Build that car!!!! ❤❤❤

[@afidarkside]

I haven’t finished this video yet but I personally prefer the 20-30 minute videos!

[@stevenjacobson8177]

Please work on the SS. And I am a bike guy ! Muscle cars are awesome too

[@orangiemn]

I want to see engine and wheel alignment as so many have handling issues because they don't align everything like they need to. Plus properly adjusting the primary chain and drive belt at the tight spot so you don't lose power running improperly adjusted chain and belt or drive chain

[@Me.MyMachinist.and.l]

I wanted to do that on the recent fxr, but to do it properly, the equipment isn’t cheap. I cheated and never moved any of the motor mount strut arms, so in theory it should still be as it was. I have rode it, taken my hands off at 80 mph, and all feels straight. I’m sure it’s not perfect, but is very close.

[@josetijerina7641]

Longer videos 🤘🏼🇺🇸

[@orangiemn]

Proper clutch adjustment after greasing and checking the neck bearings. How to do the front wheel drop check.

[@Me.MyMachinist.and.l]

As far as neck bearings go, I used both the manual, and videos on here using the fall away method with all hand controls removed from the bars. Now that I know people are into the longer videos, I’ll be sure to properly show more technical portions of these builds to ensure we can help those of you watching. Thanks for the great input!

[@jerrybigrig9475]

😎👍😎 Get a Honda hardtail chopper.. Put a BIG sign on the chevelle .. Free up some motorcycle space ..

[@Me.MyMachinist.and.l]

Hahahaha. I’m going to tuck the Chevelle in a storage unit and pull it out when I retire 😂

[@a.r.o7697]

Work on the Chevelle.

[@kap419pres]

13:28 jace was just saying on the patreon podcast that he wanted a sportster with mids and mags. Should sell that to the fast life.

[@Me.MyMachinist.and.l]

It might be sold already

[@williamhinds2816]

I'm looking for a good bike. I'd love to come see it when you have time. And I know that y'all would have looked it over so I wouldn't be getting hosed

[@Me.MyMachinist.and.l]

I believe it actually is pending as of today, I can keep you posted to know for sure.

[@williamhinds2816]

@@Me.MyMachinist.and.l ok thanks

[@Crashking14]

Just subbed..i enjoy your content...what part of the south are you guys from? Im from the west side of Atlanta, Ga

[@Me.MyMachinist.and.l]

Central Arkansas, however Scott is from Central GA, Warner Robins area. Welcome to the channel

[@Justinll23_]

Yooo what kind of rack is that for the leather pros ??

[@Me.MyMachinist.and.l]

It’s just the Rubbermaid Fast Tracks system from Home Depot

[@bobjustbob5220]

How much for the front 9 spoke wheel?

[@Me.MyMachinist.and.l]

All the parts have sold. 1 guy bought everything off the bike.

[@scottseibert7796]

Longer bike videos . That’s what we were looking for when we found you , might lose some followers switch to cars .

[@narule2695]

Id say 15-25min

[@tanner2730]

Longer videos are better in my opinion!

[@Jscogs]

Longer vids

[@marcussiriotis5324]

Stick the bike dude we want car builds there is 10000 channels out there .. Nice car but come on ... bikes ... bikes I wait all the way till Tuesday and you going to build and you tell me your switching to cars we have one day a week ...come on bikes ...

[@Me.MyMachinist.and.l]

What if I do cars on thurs, and still have a weekly bike video 😂😂.

[@Galaxie288]

Longer videos are fine and you guys don’t talk too much in your videos.

[@MrTheDays1]

Don’t be like thrashing! A day become a month video SMH it’s an episode of that 70 show

[@Me.MyMachinist.and.l]

That’s why I felt the recent fxr build could have been done in less videos, but longer ones. In my head I wanted to stick with shorter videos, but truth be told, I can just get more work done on it in one episode and make it more enjoyable to watch

[@MrTheDays1]

This is true like the famous saying, says quality over quantity. It may seem like less episodes, but , it becomes great episodes
