Took My Harley to a Sport Bike Meetup and This Happened

[@suzyamerica4679]

A couple years back, I was really impressed when an old dude on a Harley showed up at a dual-sport-oriented adventure rider rally .. the only Harley at the event. He borrowed someone's BMW, had a couple offs, bent a rim, yet finished a 220-mile ride. Now we're good friends and I've put some miles on his loaner Harley when visiting.

[@kevlarxkoffee]

lol nice. I had a dual sport. Loved it. I wanna ride some supermotos too 😅🙌

[@NanaRides]

I have never experienced any snobbiness from other riders, and I have pulled up to bike meets on Honda's and Harley's...the vast majority of bikers really do not care what you ride and welcome any and all riders. It's only the assholes like maybe in hardcore biker gangs that care about that crap.

[@texasrider4D5]

Yup. Experienced that as well. No issues with riding along groms or 300cc'ers or harley baggers. Seen more baggers on highways than town but thats just my experience. Be safe brothers and sisters on 2 wheels.

Perfect example of why I follow a group from behind when there are younger (or crazy) riders present. I was once riding with a group of people and one guy pulled up next to me at a stop light in a rolling stoppie with his girlfriend on the back. I don't have a problem with people doing stunts (I used to dabble myself) but I don't appreciate it when they do it next to me. I was impressed by how well your mirrors work. 😂

My first Harley was a Sportster in 2000 I won it in the CT state lottery and rode it for 800 miles, I probably wouldn't have bought a Harley but I traded it in on a 2001 1450 T-Sport and she's been treating me just fine for 24 years now with NO major problems lots of tires and battery's that Dyna's a great bike, so was the 1200 Sportster but if I was going to jump I'd do it while it was still new. I hate lane splitting you don't know what some ass hat is going to do if he's having a bad day I have a friend who busted up his leg to bad playing that game. I'm 71 years young and have been riding bike since 17 years old with only ONE accident that put me in the hospital for eight days so PLEASE STOP LANE SPLITTING I like the way you've got your bike set up. I didn't have mine long enough to change anything. But my Dyna was the best thing I bought myself. BE SAFE

I’ve been riding for 21 years, the first memorial ride I was in was many years ago and it was my first and last. In my opinion, and this is just my opinion, memorial rides are just another excuse to get out and ride and be stupid. The one I was on had nothing to do with the person we were “remembering”. They just sped the whole time, ran red lights, weaved through traffic and rode on the wrong side of the road. They stopped to eat, went to the beach and then rode back home. At least you guys went past his house, so props for that.

My only Harley was a kick start 1971 1000 sportster. It vibrated badly but was very dependable despite what people said about them. My other bikes have all been dirt, sport. I'm 72 riding a ninja 400 and 650 enfield now. I started riding at 14 in the 60's on a Bridgestone 90 2 stroke and have never crashed a street bike. That guy going down in a straight line at such slow speed needs to get a 125- 250 dirt bike and learn to ride before he hurts himself or somebody else.

[@kevlarxkoffee]

I built a 1971 Honda CL 175 with a cafe racer. It was a nice looking bike. Sold it awhile ago 😅 but I still miss it.

[@Studio51media]

WOW someone actually mentioning a 90cc Bridgestone!! My mom and dad had one [when we lived in Upstate NY [Rome NY]] . My mom rode the tires off that thing in the dirt [my mom often out rode some of the guys… made them a bit mad LOL but this was the late 1960’s]. both my mom and dad were into the “enduro’s” My dad also had a Suzuki 250 “Hustler” that was a Twin 2 stoke street bike. I’m 61 and I have a picture of me as a toddler sitting on the tank with a bubble faced helmet and a big ass grin on my face! Dad used to take me for rides all the time … thanks for your comment, brought back some awesome memories!

[@steveoc64]

I ride all sorts of 2 wheeled things ,depending on the weather One of my most memorable moments on 2 wheels - was in a road cycling group doing a 100 mile run through the hills in a tight pack - on a climb a group of sport bikes caught up with us as it flattened out, we all crested together side by side .... then did the next descent through the twistie bits all the way down. Man, beast and bike - all knee to knee the whole way down to the next flat. Fist bumps and smiles and salutes all round at the end. Was great

[@smiller787]

I generally don’t like group rides, because it raises the chance for giving out first aid. I like being solo and focus on my technical stuff. Each to his own. However, get a bunch of bikes out there on city streets and it can be a recipe for problems. You need to pick your areas to ride more aggressively, if you care about riding, it only makes sense to be an ambassador for riding. Here in the Monterey Bay Area, we have some pretty great roads up in the mountains.

[@kevlarxkoffee]

It's a difficult topic. When I'm riding with my main group, we ride along pretty well and look after each other. Cars also see us more since we're in a group. But I understand and don't force anyone to ride in a group ride if they don't want to. Also friends from our group has had close friends that passed away riding canyons, and I had a close call with a car in one of my canyons videos, so it convinced me to stay away from those rides. Different for everyone and it's fine. Everyone rides their own ride 🤙

[@AdamScoots247]

I think the major takeaway would be to understand your skill level and ride accordingly. Everyone was a noob and probably most people did some cringy stuff along the way, so why hate. I dont care much for riding with inexperienced riders while in a pack, including when I was one myself. Some people understand better than others, and I felt I was one of them. It gets way too hectic with noobies in a pack, so the best course of action is everyone create plenty of distance. Take it as serious as if your life depends on it, because it happens fast. No one has anything to prove, pushing past your limits is when things go bad. Practice in a safe environment that minimizes risk when you want to push it, in order to become a better rider.

[@kevlarxkoffee]

[@kevlarxkoffee]

[@vwr328u]

I have a Sportster S and showed up to a few of these. It's like herding kittens... That rider for sure grabbed all the front brake because he was distracted looking to the right and panicked. Never had to worry about being rear ended by another biker until one of these rides. Not gonna lie. Some times I enjoy it. Other times the old man kicks in. Screw you Deebo! Get out of my head LOL. Ride safe Brother

[@kevlarxkoffee]

Stop being a b#tch and come on 🤣🙌

[@mogcanalboats]

The rider that went down 'over applied' his rear brake (watch his tail light go on) and locked up his rear wheel. The result is the rear tire slides, losing all adhesion, then slides to one side, collapsing the motorcycle. This is very common and requires the rider to rethink and practice 'panic stops'. Great instructional video and thank God nobody sustained serious injury. If you step through the video moments as he goes down, the tire streak on the ground will become obvious (of the rear tire) and leaves the characteristic 'hook' at its last contact before falling over, losing contact with the ground. Once the bike loses contact with the ground it can be headed to the soft grass or under an 18 wheeler. Sooo.... USE THE FRONT BRAKE, then add some rear break as needed. Please use the front more than the rear and get use to the application, especially on a sport bike which has extremely strong stopping power up front. Learn and practice 'modulation' on non ABS motorcycles especially. Practice, practice, practice and you will come out alive from a panic stop. There are some good videos out there, please take a look. Stay safe and ride it hard and intelligent on the track days.

[@mbtbd]

Wrong. This was all about an oil leak. Nothing to do with braking. Either you did not watch the video carefully, or you have little if any experience riding.

I went on a group ride like that on a Harley. But it wasn’t a traditional Harley lol. Pan America Special 1250. Some knew about the bike saying that the PanAm will give a sport bike a run for the money. A few chicks riding sport bikes walked up to it digging the bike and were like “Is this a Harley?” The Pan America is a high tech rocket. The 150hp Revolution Max 1250 is a serious adventure bike. 5 modes Sport, Road, Rain, Off Road, and Off Road + adjust the bike beautifully for a perfect balance of power and stopping depending on what you are doing. The Adaptive Ride height is awesome. While coming to a stop it will automatically lower. When I rode with the group I was in Sport Mode. It automatically adjusted suspension and engine mapping helping me keep up the group with ease. At the end of the day the group had a different vision for Harley. As it did me when I first twist of the throttle. It speaks metric all through the 6 gears. Awesome ride and cool content! Ride safe ✌️.

[@davidboydarnott417]

Your audio was a bit low Bro! Nice listening to the bike, sounds healthy. 👍

[@Second_Opinion_2]

Is that an ipod nano on your wrist? That is old school.

[@savagenez9584]

This was a fun watch, Im subscribing. Also what a bummer that guy layed his bike at the very start mannnn I was hoping you were joking

[@savagenez9584]

Also lane splitting is illegal in Fl, (too crazy out here) and watching you do it gave me anxiety

[@kevlarxkoffee]

😂 thanks for the sub! It looks more crazy with my camera angle. It's not bad. I think I saw in FL you don't need to wear a helmet? That's even more crazy 😅

[@gavinnance4475]

15:59 flabbergasted

[@lukemoran6574]

Yo what’s your helmet cam set up?

[@kevlarxkoffee]

GoPro 12 on the front of the helmet. I have some older GoPro setup vids, but I'll see if I can do a new one coming up with all my current settings. All links in the description/website 🔥🙌

I wasnt expecting s crash two seconds in lol. This is why a lot of people dont go to group rides

[@itszorbii690]

where did u get the kakashi hatake charm/keychain

[@kevlarxkoffee]

lol at one of those fye stores in the mall. One of those random boxes and got lucky when I opened it 🔥

[@ismaelismael8021]

The guy who fell, did he brake only with front tire?

[@kevlarxkoffee]

I think so 😅

[@ascarcelle1]

Key to heavy front braking is have a shitty front brake 😂 like me. I only lock up the rear if i down shift to fast for my speed 😅

[@itsdjslime44]

What kind of Harley are u runnin?

[@kevlarxkoffee]

2022 Harley 48. Check the description for full info and upgrades 🙌

[@Ontharock]

Looks like he grabbed a handful of front breaks. You can break really hard with the front break but apply breaks gradually. You cannot just squeeze hard all of a sudden. Also don’t go cheap on tires, keep good air pressure.

[@mbtbd]

Wrong. This was all about an oil leak. Nothing to do with braking. Either you did not watch the video carefully, or you have little if any experience riding.

[@Robert-oz9fy]

I’m not a sport bike rider either. However, the sport bike community is more laid back than any Harley group. Sport bike people are more accepting. They wave at me when Harley people don’t.

[@NanaRides]

These kinds of comments keep the stereotype going. Harley riders (myself included) wave to any riders, even trike riders. Some people are just assholes. I've had my wave ignored by sport bike riders and Harley riders. Stop stereotyping people. Some are jerks, some do not see you in time.

[@Username-2]

@@NanaRidesThe comments don’t keep the stereotype going, the Harley guys do. Take it up with them. Where I ride in the northeast, Harley guys almost never wave and almost everyone else does.

[@DCoop-uo2wq]

​@Username-2 some people just aren't nice people. It's not a prerequisite to buying a harley

[@DCoop-uo2wq]

​@@Username-2 also some people aren't comfortable taking a hand off the handlebars

[@Username-2]

@@DCoop-uo2wq Just saying 90% of the time it’s Harley guys. The stereotype exists for a reason. Maybe they are all noobs to afraid to take a hand off the bars.

[@mbtbd]

A lot of people get the slide all wrong. It was on oil leak that caused it. There was no hard braking. People, really, did you look at what happened, or is it so important to pass judgement on others, perhaps to make yourself believe you are better? My guess is that the oil filter was not put on properly, maybe an old gasket was left in place, I've seen the exact same thing happen, and when you go over freshly spilled out, very easy to go down.

[@TheToycloser]

That was unexpected 🙈

[@christopherguzzi1316]

Sorry, not sure if I caught it, what brand of bike do you ride???😅😂🤗😉

That Husky 401 wasn't a sport bike LOL That was a weird crash.... I don't like riding with big groups. there's always some kind of drama.

[@kevlarxkoffee]

🤣 first time I've seen that type of bike 😂🙌

[@maguslascivious4980]

@@kevlarxkoffee It's just a 'standard' bike. The Svartpilen is an awesome platform. They make a 'sporty' version called the Vitpilen. but it's still more of a standard with clip ons.

Looks like to are close to the IE! We should ride some time! I just picked up my iron 883. Need more Harley buddies!

[@demonman1234]

I’m planning on getting my motorcycle endorsement, sometime in my future. Tbh I’m a sport bike person, love the look of them. Might start out with one of the 2 most common starters (Yamaha r3 or Ninja 400), still haven’t decided which one though. Both are similar but with minor differences.

[@kevlarxkoffee]

Check out our vids. Our girl Emilin is on the 400. We did some upgrade videos with her. And our friend Robert with the white R3. He was the one that passed away. You can see that bike in the Huntington Beach US Surf video and a few others. Enjoy 🤙

[@LilApe]

I miss my sportster 48 sometimes but man that thing had too many problems within 2k miles for a $13k bike.

Gotta keep tightening things down 😅🤙

2022 Harley 48. SPC Lanesplitter exhaust. My full upgrades are in the description 🙌

[@atrain882]

That’s why I sport bike riders and Harley riders. I have nothing in common because that guy and sport bike was trying to be a tough guy and split lanes and unfortunately those metric bikes are dangerous as fuck. I love them. I grew up on them before I went to Harleys, but motorcycle is dangerous driving a car is dangerous nowadays

[@eugeneolivier1421]

Ride your ride and stay safe some guys on sport bikes think this is MotoGP and it isn't Be safe

Your front left indicator is wonky.

It is and I hate it. I bought Amazon rear led lights so I think that's why it's doing that. My front led's are the good expensive brand 😅
