Is that a YSS shock absorber you installed? how has it performed so far?
@@MarkoCajic-lo1jp No, They are Ohlins. They were on the bike when I bought it so I can't compare it to factory but I like them. Not sure how old they are and thinking about it with your comment, I need to take it off and get it gone thru. If nothing else, change out the oil.
Nice one bro. Great sharing on that annually event. It's very interesting video. I'm glad to add my self to your channel. Greatings from the Philippines bro.
Thank you sir.. welcome and hope you enjoy. I hope to keep getting to it or head to the big one over in California if I miss it.
😎👍👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
@@northbysoutheast5439 ✌️✌️
I was bummed I didn’t get to make it!
@@Athrottleholic it was a really good show. Hopefully you can make it next year!
@@theadventurousrider I hope to!
Good times!!
@@mikeweems1966 yes it was... Hate you didn't make it over.
chain slag shouldn´t be measured with the pilot on the motorcycle?
That is the ideal but with me being by myself i normally have it a little loose.
Good video.
@@bradwiebelhaus7065 thank you for watching!✌️✌️✌️
You edit well enough you could have gone another 10 minutes ... It was interesting enough to hold attention.
@@xanbiker thank you Mike. That means a lot!
Did you get the video of dude with the side car riding over dude at chopper drag races
@@bryanhoppet5130 no sir I did not. I seen a bunch of dust and the crowd was around before I realized what happened. Thanks for watching
I am also trying to find footage of that. It was absolutely wild! I was on the other side of the track from where it happened.
@@killianhicks291 unfortunately not.
@ no worries. Great video brother! See you at Born Free TX 4 🤙🏻
@@killianhicks291 thank you.. see you there!
Just got a 92 fxr. Hopefully to get all the twerks out to make it out next year. Mcallen Tx!
Very cool man. That seems like a very popular model. I might have to look at getting me one.
ALLLLLLLLL THE SPRINGERS!!
No doubt they were out in force there. Then again I might not have paid as much attention to them in the past.
Looks like a great trip. I really like that yellow and green triumph at the beginning of the video.
@@haneymoto yes that was one of the few triumphs I seen there... All of the invited Builders was Harley but the one Honda. Odd how vastly different the events are. You go to barbers vintage festival and there's very little Harley where these other are predominantly Harley
That old Honda probably the only bike there that will start quickly.
Very possible. And they run forever! Thanks for watching
Thanks for sharing your adventure with us 😎👍👍
@@northbysoutheast5439 thank you man. I appreciate you for watching!
Some nice old bikes 😎👍👍
@@northbysoutheast5439 yea no doubt was some really old original bikes there that I was glad to see. I mean don't get me wrong I love the custom ones but to see one not customized or fixed up is cool as well
I should have watched this a month ago, ha. Congrats man, the DRZ is a great machine, I think it will serve you very well.
@@DeweyRides Thanks man I think it will as well... And you were really busy traveling from SA and around so it's all good.
Man, I like the ONDA gas Honda! My kind of humor!
@@tommylitchfield3450 haha yes I thought that was quite funny myself when I saw it.
Very good video loved it just wish I was there 😊
@@georgiahillbilly6150 I know man.. would have been even better with you there. Hopefully next year.
Those coffin tanks would make the coolest piggy banks. 2:12
@@journeyofjerry820 yes sir they would. Hopefully you can make it next year.
Damn y'all Thems some cool scoots
Yes they were.. very well done
Definitely some beautiful bikes there. Hard to pick 1 favorite but I really liked that black pan head.
@@themissuscostelli497 no doubt.. i couldn't be a judge on this kind of stuff.
Man those are some beautiful bikes. Nice Job videoing them. You should start building bikes… you have the talent and more importantly, the eye.
@@TommyWasHere hahaha thanks for the compliment but not sure I have the most important thing needed... Patience
Great video Adventurous Rider. I’m definitely need to go to that event next year. Can’t wait to see your video comparison of the 411 vs 450 Royal Enfield Himalayan. I had the 411 and loved it, they look better than the 450 but need a bit more umphh.
@@TommyWasHere they definitely have a little more umphh to them and yes it's a great event
😎👍
@@northbysoutheast5439 ✌️✌️
Beautiful bikes 😎👍👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
@@northbysoutheast5439 yes they are .✌️✌️
🏍️🏍️🏍️👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
@@MoeLarrycurly1 ✌️✌️✌️✌️
I really liked the knucklehead that still had the drum brake on the front. Some sweet scooters, for sure
@@tommylitchfield3450 yes they are. How they come up with the ideas is mind-blowing
Wish that wasn't so close to the campout, maybe after I build up some vacation time, I could hit both!
@@9milsOn2wheels I hope so man. It's a cool event
I did both last year.
Tell everyone hello y'all having too much fun
I will man. Hate you couldn't make it.
We missed you!
I was so sad I couldn’t go this year. Thanks so much for posting this so I can see some of what I missed.
@@franko-y2q not a problem. Glad you enjoyed it. Hopefully you can make it next year.
You did a good job showing off what the festival had to offer. I was there three days and never made it to the dirtbike track
@@onetrues3978 thank you. If I would have went back Sunday I would have spent a good bit of time over there... Enjoy motorcycle more than the big track. Thanks for watching
I look forward to seeing your test ride and opinion on the Royal Enfield. They seem to be the most old school new bike out there.
@@tommylitchfield3450 yes they are... It's gets a good makeover. Might be the video after born free though.
That first African Twin had plenty of padding on the seat. 👍👍
It definitely has more than mine.. I'd have to lower mine as I'm already barely touching with no bags on it
I could have spent some serious time in the brain bucket rehab area. I like old helmets. 😃👍👍
They are pretty cool.. was my first style of helmet when I was a kid.
Barber is THE place to go for anything motorcycle! Wonderful coverage of the event.
@@KrakensGarageandAdventures yes it is... Hopefully you can get there one year while I'm there
Awesome content love the vintage motocross I'm reminded of all the fun I had 40 years ago first thing ever morning when I wake up love the big bore 2 strokes
@@georgiahillbilly6150 never owned a 2-stroke but always loved the sound of em
I wish all tutorials were in depth like this one !
@@IsaccMelton I appreciate that. I try my best to make them all like this when I do them. Sometimes I wonder if it's worth it but when I get comments like this It helps me to keep doing them.. thank you
Where did you find the bike
I found it over on Craigslist down in Panama City Beach. Just happened to be looking and saw it. Thanks for checking it out
Great live video… I wish I would have been able to see it live. My back was hurting after watching you work so hard. 😂
Lol... Those tire bead breakers work pretty good check helped out alot. Also need a new bucket as that one is done.
time to buy a tire machine dude! Watch those auctions!
Lol I need to but then again it's good exercise.
Congrats on the new purchase. FYI- That factory blue coolant is really high quality stuff. Long life, much more so than anything off the shelf at a typical automotive retailer. Same as Honda OE coolant.
Thanks man. I've run Preston in my truck which has 510k on it and no issues with build up. If you look at the repair books they both say to get antifreeze that is safe for aluminum radiators which Preston is.
What bike model is this???
@@CosmoVlog 2005 fat bob
Great video friend. I really like that bike. I was surprised about the oil being in the frame…pretty cool. Very informative and well done. Tommy
@@TommyWasHere thank you Tommy. I was just as surprised about the oil tank as well.
I agree with you 100%. It's always a good idea to have a good starting place for your maintenance schedule, and the only way to know for sure is to do it yourself right away. I gotta say, whoever the engineer who came up with that oddball seat strap idea never did any maintenance themselves. That is just weird!
@@tommylitchfield3450 exactly. I have gone behind too many before that didn't. Yea who knows what the deal was with the strap
Nice bike you have there 😎👍👍
@@northbysoutheast5439 thanks man.
