The Secret No One Talks About At Harley Davidson Motorcycle Shows

Join me as I ride my Street Glide Special to a Harley Davidson motorcycle show and discuss this secret that no one seems to talk about. There is a clear issue in the community let's solve it.
Some sensational motorcycles and lot's of fun at the "Blessing Of The Bikes" on Phillip Island the home of the Australian Motorcycle Grand Prix.
Warning: Includes divisive topics, unsavoury characters, physical violence, bleeped out rude words and politically incorrect fun.

I have been riding for just over 50 years. I started out on Triumphs (69 Trident, 73 650 Bonneville, 850 Commando, 73 750 Bonneville, 75 T160 Trident, 73 750 Tiger) until I bought a 97 883 Sportster in 2007. I don’t care if some people think it’s a girl’s bike, it has taken me all over eastern Australia, including several trips from Melbourne to the Gold Coast and never let me down. Last year it turned 25, so I gave it a ground up rebuild; wheel bearings, re-laced wheels, headstock bearings, front and rear suspension upgrades, complete engine rebuild, including a Hammer Performance 1275 conversion, upgraded clutch, oil pump, and a rewire, removing extraneous wires and relocation of ignition switch and coil (to beneath the battery box and on the left hand side between the heads respectively) had the tank and guards resprayed and added an LED headlight. I get many compliments when I’m out and about. I did all the work except for the paint job myself and that makes it all the sweeter when I’m on the road. I don’t ride to please others, just myself, so I’m happy. Like this channel. Keep it up mate.

[@OldNotDead-Club]

Thank you, sportster is a great bike and it sounds like yours is awesome!

[@tboyz1]

Love the fact that you acknowledge current issues both local and global and initiate conversation around those issues well done mate! Sport glides are my choice of freedom cheers mate 👍😎

From a Canadian , I agree with your words. But not all see what we see when their eyes are wide shut , perception = control = outcome .

[@OldNotDead-Club]

spot on and thanks for the comment

[@michaelscott398]

Glad to see that the motorcycle culture down-under is so similar to what I’ve experienced here in the States; great people sharing a common interest and having fun. Add to that all the “charity” events that the biker community supports worldwide and you have a recipe for world peace. Government needs crisis to maintain control. Be safe, ride on!

I recently found your channel, the title grabbed my attention. I am older than you and not dead either, at 72 this year and riding 50 years. I have had many bikes mostly Harleys, and just a few months ago purchased another new lowrider ST. I still have my 94 FXR 107". I truly enjoy your video content and have subscribed and liked every video. I try not to miss a one. thank you for sharing. JT from Florida USA

[@OldNotDead-Club]

Thank you and welcome to the channel. Awesome riding at 72!! Well done.

[@charlesbolin7249]

We were never meant to be alone as humans. Unfortunately youth and naivety go hand in hand. Most of us as we age gain the wisdom to see we are all the same when it comes down to the basics, and become more open minded, speak less, listen more, and ask questions in a way to learn something new while giving a kind word of compliment. I believe us "older folks" have the stewardship of teaching the youth these things in order for them to make the most of their lives in a positive way. There are lots off bad things happening all the time, all over the world, but without evil there can be no good and we could not appreciate the good without the bad. Still most of us do the same things no matter where we come from, just in a different way. I hope when I retire I can visit the land down under, and do it on a Harley. My first glimpse of Australia was watching the Paul Hogan Show on PBS in the early 1980's, as a very young boy I absolutely loved his character "Super Dag". I'd love to ride the entire country and learn how you Harley guys do your stops, hanging out at the best "Biker Joints" eating the best Australian local foods, drinking, carrying on and learning the culture. I've lived and worked in Las Vegas NV for over 30 years and I can tell you the Australians I've met visiting our city over the years are a very fun and friendly lot. I promise not to act like Super Dag when I visit!

[@OldNotDead-Club]

Lol, look us up when you come over it will be a blast

Here in America Harley is mainly a T-shirt shop.

[@OldNotDead-Club]

lol, is it that bad? They have to generate profits for the shareholders - but the flip side is they can survive and make bikes.

[@kellyemery5514]

@@OldNotDead-Club I "live on" a 1997 Electra Glide. I barely make it on disability. I sleep on the ground. And it's almost impossible to find a Harley shop that will work on my bike. It's falling apart. I only use cash when I get enough saved. About four years on this bike. Yes when you have simple things like drive belts go or simply need parts that are hardly ever in stock like an air filter... It's that pathetic.

[@frankmarkovcijr5459]

I remember when I was in ABATE of Florida we would coordinate events with other chapters so no one would have their event on the same weekend. This way instead of having to pick which one you could go to them all.

[@frankmarkovcijr5459]

I have found the Harley Community to be basically a group of clique. If you are not a member of one of the clicks you are like you're not there. Smug and self-righteous, judgemental. They want you to conform to their standards. Very vocal about your choice of motorcycle especially if it is not considered to be the right kind of motorcycle. Country Club type who think that their shit does not stink. Nose in the air looking down on everybody else.

[@OldNotDead-Club]

Some are like this - but I have found most to be really good and welcoming

[@frankmarkovcijr5459]

@@OldNotDead-Club maybe in Europe it might be different but in America a Harley is a chrome penis extension for an old fart who is spine is as limp as his penis and who has more money than God. I have had Harley dealers tell me I am not their kind of customer because I ride my motorcycles and I don't spend 20 grand on garbage. I went to Harley once with a friend of mine who sold his Sportster for $10,000 to a collector he was looking to buy a new bike and not a Salesman would talk to us he ended up buying a Moto Guzzi and is happy as shit. I have I don't know 30 motorcycles so I'm always in the market for another bike I'm not interested in anything or Harley currently produces at all

word brother. division is definitely on purpose. a divided people are easier to controll and concur. the thing about that is you have to have willing participants. everybody , for whatever need wants to be on " the right side" but you said it best : there is only one side. lets all jump the line together. sports bike and girls bikes can all ride together. hell we all played together in the sand box when we were kids .still plenty sand.

For the most part, if you want to understand the division we self inflict, follow the money. The other part of that division is Ego. I find at the core most bikers tend to get along until one of those two topics is broached.

[@OldNotDead-Club]

You are spot on. Money is the energy of the world and Ego is what destroys many relationships

Great video and wise words but....... as we get older and the young kids are not riding Harley's anymore or even riding bikes at all, it's a matter of time before it all ends. At least that's how it looks overhere in Europe. 🤐

[@OldNotDead-Club]

That's sad if it's true

[@ronjovi]

Because Harleys are considered premium in Europe (and expensive) and American centric pop culture isn’t as strong as it used to be.

Too many people manage their lives based on emotions, rather than facts and logic. How many people subscribe to media (newspapers, magazines, etc.) that help to keep them informed of local and world issues? How many make an effort to investigate the issues behind the politics, and what the politicians actually stand for. Yet so many are aware of what's going on in the Internet, even when its full of misinformation, and outright lies. Democracy exists because we fought for it. We did not want to be dominated by a King's whim. We wanted to determine how our tax money is spent. What has changed is politics is more controlled by those who try to 'spin' how they're out for the little guy, all the while cutting taxes to the Corporations and wealthy, where the majority of their campaign funds come from. Yes, the trend has been that the Corporations and wealthy fund all the lobbyists who actually get all the government their money can buy... Our democracies are in danger, and if we let those (primarily right-wing & Conservatives) gain control, they'll do whatever they can to ensure their vested interests come first, and those interests (the Corporations and wealthy) are that they gain advantage, at the cost of everyone else losing their rights and freedoms. There are reasons why Corporations continue to grow bigger and richer, while everyone else is struggling to hold their own... Stay informed, and stay active to demand your politicians are actually looking out for you...
