RIGHT ON! BD, a week after I bot my wideglide, I got caught in torrential rains, 4 inches in the street. I had half a mile to go, got home safe. Next day I do a pre-ride, the horn sounded like a constipated duck! ten feet away it could NOT be heard. I could imagine the danger of gettin' on her an out for a spin only to need a horn that was useless.I carry a tire gage in forkbag as well as a pkg of 1157's for running an stoplites. that way when I do a pre-ride, I don't have to go running out to the auto parts store. .Nothing to do w pre-rides but I keep a few 5 gal jerry jugs so if I want to leave right away for a ride I can top off the tank at the house.
Beautiful bike, it's a shame the Victory brand will be no more. Though a lot of good points to remember when checking in preparation for a ride, especially for a newbie like myself. I enjoy the videos and the lessons.
Black Dragon National President .. yes, they ARE ,, kool as hell. They seem like they do more than just look kool,, js. Lol. I can't believe how you talk to meer mortals like myself. You're thorough as hell BD.. respect to you & BS🔱
Black Dragon National President Great videos by the way! I have learned so much about MCs and it is so interesting all the knowledge you put out there. Thanks and keep up the great videos!
So I found a Road Captain that doesn’t know all the protocols including having the highest authority while on the road; if structured properly. What do you call an outline of protocols/responsibilities for every position in the MC?
@@BlackDragonNationalPresident thx. I think it’s odd not to have the basic historical MC protocols for positions not available to those that are elected,at least; though any patch holder should have no excuse but to know the “rules”. It’s not like its some secret internal operational thing; and it sets the protocols in stone. It eliminates learning curve/bs from those selectively giving the knowledge to the newbie position holder. I see it like some treat prospects; learning as you go, and some just being plain Aholes about it. It can be a voted per protocol to be set, and allows for personalization of the protocols per MC; and it’s future generations that may want or need to change? I think some MC’s don’t even have a clue who they’ve invited in. It’s their fault for not allowing the prospect to truly contribute and exchange while the prospect = no-nothing and stay in their f’n lane. 😈 Been learning from you for awhile now. Truly, thank-you 😁
Most certainly. I have many videos coming on that subject, plus a book which will be called Sgt at Arms Bible. Just trying to make the time to get it all in. :-) Thank you for watching.
I'm all about safety but you're putting a lot on one guy if you have 20 or 25 guys or however many guys in the group you're going to have your road Captain do that pre-ride inspection on all of the bikes you'd have to start a day early just to leave on time
The Road Captain should be doing his inspections daily on all of the bikes in the pack. He should know what condition every bike is in, such that he wouldn't have to complete it all in one morning. He would already have a running list in his mind of which bike needed what. This not be something that catches him by surprise. He could say "King did you get that water pump check out and did you buy new tires like I asked you to three weeks ago?" You see he's already on his game. When the MC gets too big for the one Road Captain, then he assigns an assistant to help him do the job. He can have as many assistant Road Captains as needed to get the job done. :-0
Valuable information. This should encourage members to have their bikes in good working conditions always.
Love this format ! Straight to the point .information given with a great delivery .
Great video brings back military inspections. Used to have too do inspections and now I do this for our club.
Make 'em pop tall bro!
I could see myself loving this part of that job lol. Maintenance is probably one of my favorite aspects of motorcycles other than riding them

I just started watching your videos today and I love em
Thanks for watching and for taking the time to write.
Thank you sir!! Thank you for letting me know what I don’t know.👍💪
Black Dragon, you have a very beautiful bike. Good video
That is one sweet bike
Mr. BD,
When we check our bikes a tire pressure gage must be used while checking the center of the tires.
She is so gorgeous (motorcycle)
My dad is a road captain, he grounded the president of the chapter once, for bad tires
That's right.
Appreciated.
Black Dragon this reminds me a lot a military convoy pre-roll inspection. What about responsibilities of a pre-order brief?
I can go over that in another video. Good point.
BD, what are those "git bakk" whips for... really? And that bike is like half bike half spaceship big guy! Lavishhh!!!💎💎💎
I love my futuristic bike! And the get-back whips have been on my bike for years. :-) They look cool, I think. :-)
Black Dragon National President .. yes, they ARE ,, kool as hell. They seem like they do more than just look kool,, js. Lol. I can't believe how you talk to meer mortals like myself. You're thorough as hell BD.. respect to you & BS🔱
What is a rc vp supposed to do
10 point check
Black Dragon, is it a good idea to have a road captain who is an agressive rider or is that not a good skill to have?
It's a good skill to have, but not while leading a pack. When leading 10 to 100 guys, EASY DOES IT is always the best way.

Few MCs actually have that.

Can you make a video about Sgt @ Arms?
Most certainly. I have many videos coming on that subject, plus a book which will be called Sgt at Arms Bible. Just trying to make the time to get it all in. :-) Thank you for watching.
I thought, I'd heard you mention a RC's Bible. Was I wrong? If so, where can I find it?
NO RC's Bible. I suppose I could try to write one. I'd have to do a lot of research.
Black Dragon Biker TV No worries. Thanks for the reply.
200 pound girlfriend? Daaaaaaannnnnnng! Thats a big gal!
