(I had a long answer here, but RU-vid killed it ☹) I do like @ItchyBoots and Noraly a lot for what they present, but trying to get any interaction or response from her is like getting blood from a stone nowadays. It is a channel, a oneway street, and you can watch it if you like, but do not expect Noraly to ever reply or to interact with you or any other channel subscribers at all. That makes it rather dead and cold. (I'm convinced she can do a lot better if she wants to, and I do not know if it is that she wants to make more money (books, video courses and whatever) or if she just doesn't have the time or motivation to interact with lowlife subscribers.) It's a pity with such an intelligent woman that has so so much to deliver and share with all of us. Others that I thoroughly enjoy to watch and interact with is: @LNRmoto and Leonoor - graceful, skilled, absolutely amazing attention to detail and always always interesting! @OffSheGoes and Runa G - A lovely, humble attitude, excellent voiceovers, and videos that never ever fail to amaze me. Engaging, motivating and just pure fun. @TheGirlOnABike - Give her two wheels or four, it just doesn't matter, Vanessa R master it all! There's a passion and a drive in her that goes beyond all and everything. She's a Fighter with a capital F! @MalinAhr - Extremely underrated and foulmouthed like you'll just never know. Malin Å is entertaining and inviting. She could make a Vicar blush...
You know what sets me off with the Vulcan? The damn halogen lamps.... I hate how this is a 5yold video, yet now in 2024 Vulcan comes with halogen lights... Come on Kawasaki...
The truth is that the Arrow sounds good only when you're on stop and speeding up a bit. At high RPMs, it's just a slightly better version of a lawnmower.
Thank you! My project is, I’ve been teaching myself how to fix up an old 83 Honda Ascot, I got it good but the first thing I did on it was rebuild the forks, apparently I gouged one of the fork tubes in the process and it’s leaking bad, so I ordered a set of parts forks off EBay, but the fork tubes have a little rust on them I’d like to get it perfect like the ones on my bike, no rust. Thank you, if I remember I’ll add an update
The price in 1964 was about the same as a base ford falcon, which was an economy car. But HD deserve credit for keeping the price low for decades. Not sure what its like now, but back in the day it was competitive.

it seems wtih the 22 M8 engines, they've ironed out the vast majority of issues, they are pretty reliable now at this point and most makes are pretty good these days, a far cry form the 70's.
I'm in my 50s, 6'3" and about 215-220. I'm interested in buying a Heritage as a beginning rider. What do you think? Any aadvice? I've looked at a Triumph Bonneville T@20 too but I like the Heritage more, I live in central Texas where it can get pretty hot and humid. What type of gear would you suggest?
To me, the Vansen Heines have a throat eater deeper more mellow sound than the higher pitched Reinhart’s. I’ve ran both of these on my bikes before I just really liked the deep throat mellow growl of the Vansen Hines without being too loud.
The helmet cameras are now old and we as viewers only see dirt ahead. We want to see the rider ride and race so it’s best to get someone to video the rider as he rides. Thats the best view. It’s 2024 so that should have invented a way to have a drone follow the bike at 10’, 15’,20’ and 25’ away and something attached to the rider so the drone knows to follow the bike and video tape the rider.
I love this bike. Very powerful. Very light ride. I’m early 50’s and not getting any younger. So I appreciate the weight of it. Even though the new RG is a little lighter than previous years. Would definitely get the FXLRST.
I just bought a used 2016 heritage softail with only 9k miles on it. Paid 11,500. All LED light upgrades but still had factory exhaust on it with the cats. Run hot as hell. So the pipe shopping has begun 👍
