What happened to my motorcycles?

In this update video, I address the question many of you have been asking: What happened to the motorcycles on the channel? It’s been an incredibly hot summer here in Phoenix, making it almost unbearable to get out on two wheels. With temperatures soaring, I’ve had to focus more on truck content, but rest assured, the bikes are not gone for good!
I’m working on balancing the variety of content, including trucks, motorcycles, side-by-sides, Slingshots, and some exciting local shop collaborations. Moving forward, I plan to mix things up more consistently, so you get a little bit of everything instead of long spurts in just one direction. Thanks for sticking around, and I can’t wait to bring you more diverse content as we move into cooler weather!

Dan don’t forget that your presentation and personality are also part of your content creation and despite what you’re sharing the way your passion shines through is also what some us enjoy, regardless of the vehicle choice. Keep doing what you’re doing sir, I’m here for it

[@douggantenbein5382]

Tough summer for sure 😅. Am one of the long term viewers, I remember when you bought the heritage. Might be a keeper, still have mine (identical to yours but with 80k miles). I find myself enjoying the varied content, and your refreshed enthusiasm. Keep it up ❤

[@mikewilliams1109]

Totally understand about your dilemma regarding the HEAT & Motorcycle riding. Appreciate your honesty and openness. Keep up the Great content!!

[@PinksAdventures]

You make'em...I'll watch'em!...great stuff on here!!👍...thanks for sharing...stay safe out there!😎👍🤙👍🤙🇨🇦

[@KrakensGarageandAdventures]

It has been equally as hot here in VA for the past two months. I haven't been riding as much this summer either. I tune in to watch you and see what you're into. Keep doing what you do. I appreciate you sharing your adventures.

[@hoss6048]

What summer is it not hot as hell in Phoenix?

[@andyfoley6906]

First tuned in when you got the Heritage, as I also had one. However, because of the diversity of your work, I find your channel more enjoyable and interesting! Keep it going your way Dan!

[@GearsGadgets]

Thanks I really appreciate the support.

[@AppleFanX2]

Hi Dan, I'm a motorcycle and car/truck guy. I really enjoy all your content. I've had two Indian RoadMasters (2015,2018) and now I currently own a BMW R18B. Keep up the great videos! Regards, Lindsay

[@waylinnelson]

I’ll watch anything you make. You have a great personality and always offer great entertainment. Thanks for all the videos lately.

[@BR549_o7]

agreed, riding a bike in hot weather is like being directly behind a tow motor forklift blowing hot air in your face. I pass up on riding when it is super hot as well.

[@MeettheotherBrowns]

40 degrees Celsius isn’t too bad to ride in. I am here for all your content from exercise equipment to trucks and bikes and anything else.

[@jefefumador]

Take the bags and the windshield of the Heritage for around town, and get a full dresser touring bike for road trips.

[@602North]

It’s your channel and I like that you do you. I’m the same. Change gears and lose a few but also pick up a few. I watch channels on a variety of topics I enjoy and yours is one of them. I’ve always said my channel is mine. I do it strictly for fun and if it becomes a job, I’ll stop.

You should invest in a hydration vest! I picked up one from HD about 3 years ago and what a difference that makes when riding! The great thing about it is that not does help cool your core but whenever you stop for fuel you can soak it again with water and start the refresh again. As to your bike dilemma, I’ve always had a touring bike from the beginning (2006), it’s what I learned to ride on. About 7 years ago is when I got my first 2nd bike, a Rocker C, it was a different type of riding which is what I wanted. Great for zipping around town and just riding for fun. So over the 7 years since, the Rocker turned into Fatboy, then a Sportster 72 and then currently a Breakout. The one thing that has reminded consistent since I started riding is I’ve always had a touring bike. Over the 18 years that I’ve been riding I’ve only had 4 touring bikes. To me it’s the best riding bike that can do everything you need. The other bikes are great for a sporty ride (although you certainly can get a sporty ride from a touring bike nowadays), but to me those bikes are a one trick pony. Sure you can add bags and a windshield and go touring on them, but it’s really not what they were designed to do. Your Heritage is what I think of as tween bike. Not fully touristy nor fully sporty, but a great bike to do both okay. If I could only have one Harley it would be the one I have now, my 21 RKS. With the 114 motor it’s got a lot of giddy up to scratch that speed itch and plenty of bag space so I can tour. I can put my windshield on and really enjoy the miles. With no big fairing to block my view or weak ass stereo to try and put out music it’s the pinnacle of Harley riding 😊! At the end of the day it comes down to what suits your taste when it comes to riding. Just like your YT channel it’s what makes you happy!

[@RoadReality]

Yeah, man - it's been a brutal summer all over! Walk outside: sweat. Sit outside: sweat. Go for a ride? SWEAT. Keep doing you, it's working!

[@BrandonBicasso]

That bread and butter Harley content, lol..

[@road_king_dude]

This man has 100% my dream garage! Sheesh! 🥵

[@vinniemadrox]

If you ever had interest in selling that herritage, I may be interested in flying out to AZ to buy it, and ride it back to NJ if the price is right

[@MoeLarrycurly1]

Well considering motorcycle is my almost only transportation. Rain shine or snow when I try and avoid snow life's too short to be in a box...✌️

[@pablocruz74]

Your not kidding i ride to work but this summer has kicked my butt

[@MoeLarrycurly1]

I think you said you Phoenix yeah my son moved to Phoenix first Peoria. He says that's in Phoenix somewhere and now he lives in Glendale he was the smart one he got out of the snow Best of luck...

[@KeithWilliams-uw9ym]

Man truck content more important no I'm not for the GM IM FOR THE FORD DAN BUT STILL LOVE YOUR VIDEOS 😢 DAMNNNNNNN

[@AXAR4]

Dont get pulled over by the smokies

[@mrdude3540]

U should buy the new Indian Challenger elite and make videos lol

[@indianbill3123]

if you’re thinking about going to a touring bike, then get it done so you’ll have what you need and want. Sturgis 2026

[@indianbill3123]

by the by…I know you already have one…but i highly recommend the “BatteryMINDer® 2012 AGM, 2 AMP, Part 2830438” from Indian Motorcycles. We’ve used them since 2019 on both Indian and Harley and they are great.
