In this video, I head over to Mountain Cycleworks in Asheville, North Carolina, where I install a new Hyperpro remote reservoir shock and fork springs on my 2019 Honda NC750X. Also making an appearance is the motorcycle legend, Scooter Tramp Scotty, as he works to get his new bike outfitted for the road. Later, we ride around the gorgeous mountains of Western North Carolina, trying some delicious barbeque along the way.

Scotty and Joe.... together again...the legend and his protege... living out their lives that most of us dream about most every day... great video... cant wait to see Scotty out on the new bike. As for his old one... tell Scotty it belongs in a museum. Tell Scotty to contact Matt at Wheels Through Time... thats where The Old Mule belongs... its a piece of motorcycle history.

Scotty is like a new proud Poppa with the new Bike. Good for him. It's the little things in life that make us happy. I'm sure the new shocks were a game changer on your Bike. Maybe I'll catch you guys on the road 95 n. bound Saturday to 26 then 77.

@dirtymotorcyclevagabond 4 месяца назад

Yeah I don’t think he liked that lmao

@theadventurousrider 4 месяца назад

Man I don't feel bad as the amount of tools I carry now. We use those remote resovor type shocks on our race cars due to the heats like you were talking about. Glad everything is riding better and man Im going to have to try that BBQ place as that looked good.

@dirtymotorcyclevagabond 4 месяца назад

I've been really impressed with it thus far

@bendaves77 3 месяца назад

Joe, you get through Davenport Iowa which right along the Mississippi River in the i80, 74 corridor make sure that you are able to stop by a restaurant called Mission BBQ.. you will love it.. nothing is frozen and everything is cooked up and smoked the day before.. its a new restaurant that does some really cool things for veteran. They're able to travel to events They're hired for in a old duece and a half with a custom smoker built in the bed of it

@dirtymotorcyclevagabond 3 месяца назад

Cool!

@josephreisinger33 4 месяца назад

Hay Joe. Back like 20 years ago, I had a 83 GL1100 that would not sit on the side stand the forks and rear shock were so beat. So I put Progressive springs in the forks and a set of shocks in the back, and man, what a difference. Fixed the brakes and put on new tires. It looked like shit but went down the road great. Ride safe brother and watch ⌚️ your 6.....

@dirtymotorcyclevagabond 4 месяца назад

Will do bro 😎 thanks!

@lonecowboyadventures 4 месяца назад

@dirtymotorcyclevagabond 4 месяца назад

@ExhaustCraft1968 4 месяца назад

After I had written the comment, I realised that many modern bikes have one fork for preload and the other for rebound damping, So you have fitted the springs correctly as the instructions stated. I run 70's Japanese bikes. They are not like that, I am getting old, and my memory isn't as sharp as it used to be

@ExhaustCraft1968 4 месяца назад

That's why I wrote observation, not a criticism at all. Love the channel.

@GratefulBamboo 4 месяца назад

Scotty is right. Unmolested Harleys are the best as stock is most always dependable. I will take dependable over somewhat more power every time. Broke down along the road trying to troubleshoot a bike modified by someone else sucks. Your spine thanks you Joe for replacing the rear shock. In a month you probably be a half inch taller again 😁

@dirtymotorcyclevagabond 4 месяца назад

Cool, they're priced a lot better than some of their competitors

@paulmszyco970 4 месяца назад

The efi on Scottys bike isn't bad, it's problem was if you added performance parts it's wasn't tunable. If I were Scotty I would replace the 2 fuel lines sooner rather than later, that's what blew out on mine going to Sturgis last year (400 dollar tow and 400 dollar repair). The new gas eats that old rubber up. Those fuel lines are pressurized with check valves in them, best to fix before the leak.

@dirtymotorcyclevagabond 4 месяца назад

Good info 👍 wonder if he’ll read this…

@gregorytubbs3444 4 месяца назад

Red threadlocker is fine where you can get to it and heat it up to break it loose. This is from Permatex: Permatex High Strength Removable Orange Threadlocker is a hybrid formula that combines the strength of Red threadlocker with the removability of Blue Threadlocker. Orange Threadlocker is ideal for modern day engine bays with a great deal of lightweight components and high vibration applications. Unlike traditional Red Threadlocker, Orange Threadlocker can be removed with hand tools when extra force is applied.

@dirtymotorcyclevagabond 4 месяца назад

Good info 👍 I've heard about it, but never used it.

Joe, I’m headed down, on my bike from upstate ny tomorrow morning. I’m meeting my father in Tazewell to ride the back of the dragon.. any spots you’d recommend camping tomorrow night when I get into VA area?? Thanks!

@dirtymotorcyclevagabond 4 месяца назад

Very cool! I'm not sure right off hand. SW Virginia can be a bit tricky...

@gregorytubbs3444 4 месяца назад

About the springs. My CTX1300 has two different fork shocks. I'm not sure, but it seems one side is for dampening and the other for the rebound. One does call for slightly more oil than the other too.

@dirtymotorcyclevagabond 4 месяца назад

Mmm, interesting

@ExhaustCraft1968 4 месяца назад

The right-hand spring seems to have been fitted upside down. When you removed the left spring, the coils at the bottom were tighter wound than the top spring coils. Unless that is how the right spring needs to be fitted, that is just an observation.

@slimshady8249 4 месяца назад

Yes, definitely put it in opposite of the left side.

@dspence8086 4 месяца назад

Yep, I noticed that too.

@dirtymotorcyclevagabond 4 месяца назад

That’s how the instructions have it going in

@slimshady8249 4 месяца назад

There for a second, I thought you were on a carnivore diet, but I guess you’re on a keto diet, glad you got your chocks changed out yeah that makes for a brand new bike for sure sometimes that some of the best money you can ever spend as shocks for a bike , travel, well, Godspeed

@dirtymotorcyclevagabond 4 месяца назад

Yeah, it's pretty much carnivore, although I do eat some vegetables and a lot of fat. I just feel a lot better when I do it. Yeah shocks are the one thing that make the most difference.

@bryanmitchell5790 4 месяца назад

@@dirtymotorcyclevagabond I just started the carnivore diet about a week ago , going good so far it’s a little expensive hey but meet good, travel well, Godspeed
