So Rich, how many miles to the quart are you getting? hahaha. Haven't read the comments yet, but I can hear the HD leaking oil jokes already even if they didn't post 'em!!!! Great video. May I inquire as to how far the video time line is behind your actual?
Mid September is when we recorded this. Next video takes us to Nashville TN to get the leak fixed. That took forever!! Then a quick ride to the Blue Ridge then we'll be caught up and only 3-4 week behind us. Thanks for always watching Willa. Cheers !!
@@TwoWheelsBigLife But we haven't heard of any BMW maintenance on Chris's bike. I have an 08 k12GT w/just about 54k. need to do the oil, final drive, valve check, etc.
We have been doing long trips every year for 35 years and in the last few it's trailer and more and more camera and drones. What a great way to see the country on 3 wheels :)

@@richardmourdock2719 I have opened my home to family and friends for years. There was always an extra teen-ager or traveling friends that dropped in for a night or stayed for months - maybe years.

You two have a great relationship! Enjoy your channel. My Kawasaki Voyager needs no “Spa time,” but does spend lots of time “working out” on the highway!

Chris...your comment or her (Ricks bike) just needs another couple days in the spa cracked me up. Damn near spit my beer on the computer screen! Love the videos!!
Hey Rich, you are putting a lot of hard miles on the old gal so not to worry about a little leak here and there. At your next stop just pick up an official Harley oil rag and you'll be all set 😉 cheers Dave
Wow! That's a great video. The scene where you two travel freely on motorcycles is so cool. Your travel course is fantastic, too. I'm glad to be a friend of your great channel. 👍👍👍🤝🤝🤝🤙🤙👌
My 2018 Lowrider had 60000 miles on it. After the first 15k I was leaking oil from the air intake like crazy man, there would be oil literally splattered all over my exhaust and the right side of the bike. It was my only gripe with the bike before I hit a deer in CO totaling it on US 550. I'm totally unscathed, but so far I got 1.1k on my new Honda Africa Twin. Really enjoying it. Totally different animal compared to the FXLR. You guys inspired me, I decided I'm going to quit my job pretty soon once I become debt free and live on the road full time. Thanks guys!
Hey guys great videos...we’ve been watching them in envy...we’ve done a ton of miles ourselves but not full-time... after watching this video I’d like to offer up a little pointer… Because the bike is so heavy and I see you struggle to lift it up in a few videos, I always turn my handlebars to the right all the way when I get off my bike and it makes the bike so much easier to stand up after when you get back on… If you throw your leg over and use that momentum plus the handlebars being turned to the right it makes picking that heavy bike up so much easier
OMG. You stopped at Outlaw Harley Davidson in Blue Springs Missouri. That's our sponsored HOG chapter. You were within 1 mile from our house it was so cool seeing Outlaw in your video.
Syn oil loves to find a way to leak and does so better than good old fashion dino oil. Try changing to regular oil, bet your leak stops. Good luck, a 2017 or older wing is looking better all the time. Ride safe.
Don’t know if anyone has passed on a tip on how to lift a heavy bike off of its side stand. Merely turn your handlebars all the way to the right to shift the weight off the side stand. Sometimes just turning your bars to the center position is sufficient. Try it and see whatcha think! Loving the videos y’all. Fan from Arlington, TX
You guys are blowing up so fast! That’s awesome! Can’t wait to watch more videos! You should come up to Indy sometime and explore some of our parks. You won’t regret it!
At the 10:24 mark in to your video you do it you show everyone what it means to own a real Harley.. hahaha! that never ending oil leak it just never goes away. I bet Chris's bike don't leak like that every time you stop.. hahaha!.
Glad your stays have been working out for you. My wife and I travel and camp for months at a time, most years. It's surprising how much time is taken up with planning for routes and camping. Last year we cut down on that a bit by going for 10 - 14 days stays instead of mostly 3-4 day stays.
To save some weight run AMSOIL 20W-50 Synthetic V-Twin Motorcycle Oil in all 3 holes and you can get by with carrying one quart with you. Plus you can usually find it pretty easy on the road.
That is such a cool place! Of course because of the covid the reservations was closed to thru traffic to do the complete loop! We went there June 2020. We stayed in hot springs south dakota and ventured out to all the sites. What did you think of the little ghost town with the one gas station?
Such a FUNtastic journey!! Comfy beds!! Good company!!! Stay safe! Our corn here in Ontario 🇨🇦 is very tall like 6 feet or more! Has to be knee high by the 1st of July to be the best!!!
Another happy Sunday. Thanks for the updates! I'm looking forward to Bunk A Biker's assistance in 2021 on a couple of trips I hope to do. Chris has tennis elboe and Richard needs new gloves. Good luck with the HD. It's doing monumental work! Happy New Year!
Love your videos and am waiting for more. I too have a HD (2006 ulta) now with 120000 plus miles. I had to replace seals and gaskets a few times, I use Mobil full syn.

Did you folks see any of the wild bison or big horn sheep in the Badlands? That place spoke to my soul when I was there in 2017. The Mrs and I love watching your videos. Keep up the awesome content. Stay safe!

It's good that you're using Bunk a Biker, it's similar to Warm Showers used by cyclists. Stayed in two warm showers and three churches when cycling coast to coast, should of used more. Can see the Harley needs to go on a Rotella diet.
I quit using sync 3 because I would use a qt of oil every 1000 MILES. A MECH friend told you will burn that oil. Go to a full synthetic oil and he was right the oil consumption quit.
@@TwoWheelsBigLife Syn 3 is chemically a blend of 60% synthetic and 40% petroleum oils but they can call it full synthetic. Castrol won a lawsuit in 1999 allowing them to market Group III oils as full synthetic.
I understand what you’re saying there I travel back-and-forth across the states a lot I never had much luck getting anything done at the Harley dealers
When was this filmed? I live in K.C. Mo., and it’s been too cold to ride. But then, you’re a lot tougher than me. I 70 between here and St. Louis is a bear! Isn’t it? Too many big trucks that’ll just pull right out in front of you. It’s the worst stretch in the U.S. Happy New Year!

That’s a hard one. I love My Ms Alice but the GS is so comfortable and has so much more capabilities. I’m liking the GS.

Towing is hard on motorcycles. They all tend to go through clutches more frequently and also cable usage.
