Hi! Traveling Tall, Just a FYI J&P cycles has a one gallon gas can that fits in the back part of your hard saddlebags. Just for this situation, that pops-up out of nowhere.....
Since they upgraded the radio to allow Android Auto i haven't even tried to use HD's navigation any longer. They (HD) can't keep up with the map updates like Google does. Nice video sir and have a blessed day!
Realized my full size Ford van didn't have a gas light while riding through Cades Cove. Needle was on E and you know how slow people go through there. Van even shut off once. Managed to get out and roll down the mountain in N and into the gas station right outside. Wife and kids still won't let me live that down.
Hey man that was me on the foothills Saturday. I was heading to Maryville to the Shed. Thanks for the heads up. btw it took me over 2 hours getting through all that traffic!
Really nice rte! Twisty, well maintained, and lightly travelled. BTW u may want ti consider getting a longer kickstand to better accomodate yoir new settup. Also, usually if u zoom in on the nav screen it will show less traveled side streets.in the area you're riding (although not all the time). Thnx 4taking us along. God bless.
Hey tall, i have the 18/21 set up on my street glide also... they make different length kickstands so the bike wont lean over so far when on the stand being a different height. Look into it.. the bike looks great!😎
Thank GOD you made it! Question: does your speedometer and other engines gages operate the same with the different size and wheels? Or is that just an’Old School’ way of thinking 🤔?
I was a little worried about the side stand after I put the 13 Olhins on my cvo road glide with the 21 front a little more effort to get up off of the stand but I love the shocks and the 13 I think steepens the trail some
Not trying to be a know it all but you can navigate through your display with your thumbs on the handlebars you’d need to use the touch screen.Love you videos.
No way! I was just there 3 days ago. Haha! We’ve been in the same places over and over again, but missed each other by a few days each time. Have a blessed one!
I'm jealous tall I have rc slip ons but those wheels are real nice man. They are a custom wheel it should ride good. Bet if you still had a 16 rear it might feel differently
LOL., Hey Tall.... $ 14 in gas is a Way better than a $$$$ ticket from the local federalies.... Most bikes , including my Yammy, leave you 35 clicks before the bike is a door stop. Not sure which dude conjured up 35 miles as the number.... but Yamaha Bolt is the same . Ciao
I pushed my range one day to see how far it would go. Ran out of fuel at a stop light, right next to a gas station. I did the walk to shame pushing her to the pump.
Tip: I have ran out of gas on demo rides. The motorcycle will start to sputter and then you start looking for a GOOD place to pull over because it is about to just stop. Even though there was a bit of gas in the tank, it won't start. Add about 1/2 gallon of gas and you are good to start the motorcycle.
What kinda handlebars are yours? Are they 12in? I've been pondering on bars and got over the pointed apes. Seeing yours while riding and the way they sit made my mind up for lol thanks!
Tall has KST 10 inch six bend bars. I bought the same bars for my 2016 Street Glide. They're awesome bars and you don't have to buy extended clutch or brake hoses. Very comfortable and look fantastic 👍!
Hey Tall, great vids I appreciate them all. Did you have to recalibrate your Speedo after the wheel change? I know it isn’t much of a change, but still a change. Just curious if that is required or recommended? Thanks, stay Blessed!
never feels good when that "low gas " warning comes up on the screen esp when you are away from home. we rode out west this year and i had my ultra under 5 miles when i finally got to an OPEN gas station.
When doing research on cams for the M8, I noticed, everybody talks about their torque and horsepower numbers but, I would like to find some info on how engine mods affect the mileage. That could be important for a bike that will see touring duty. Any idea on how your mileage has changed with the various mods? Thanks.
Hey Slim u just got so excited about that 21 & 18 wheels u didn’t check your fuel ⛽️. And of course Leonard has fuel his a Leonard ,you shouldn’t have any problems out of that set up me myself i have a 23&18 no problems. enjoy mask up stay safe Hey Leonard. Leonard from cali Rackem👊🏾🙏🏾👍🏽
Nice twisty and scenic route. BTW, u may want to consider getting a longer kickstand to better accomodate your new settup. Also, if you zoom in on your nav screen you can see the less traveled side roads in the area you're traveling.
I know H-D makes an adapter to move the mirrors to the pods next to the speaker. A lot of people with batwing style fairings use those mirrors to give the front end a sleeker look.
You don't have 2 in on the rear the overall size is the same you just have a lower profile tire, and you only get a inch higher in the front 2 in total but it's inch on the top and on the bottom of the ram
1st rule Tall. Full tank, empty bladder. 😁
and a little food in your stomach :-)
When the needle gets close to E you need to pay attention!😁

Lots of good laughs on that trip ! ...Thanks Tall and Leonard. I could almost hear Leonard.
Wife and I rode The Parkway Saturday and stayed in PF. Heaviest traffic ever for the Rod Run. Roll on,Tall!
Since they upgraded the radio to allow Android Auto i haven't even tried to use HD's navigation any longer.
They (HD) can't keep up with the map updates like Google does. Nice video sir and have a blessed day!
Beautiful bike.
And all this video proves is that you are one of us. It happens to ever biker from time to time.
Thanks for a great video ride.

Foothills parkway is an ausome ride. I'm heading back down there this weekend from Ohio. Taking a friend to the tale of the dragon & deals gap.
Tall in the military when we return off any road trip you ALL ways refuel before to go back to the motor pool
Well I’ll put the Foothills Parkway on the list, dang what a beautiful ride.
Love all of your post videos. Keep up the good work. Love how your bike looks now with new rims and tires.
Just got back from Tennessee rode the parkway north to south. Absolutely beautiful ride.
The Nav update is a separate update. You will see it at the very bottom of the GTS update page.
Wheels look good! Changes the stance of the bike. I dig it!
Really nice rte! Twisty, well maintained, and lightly travelled.
BTW u may want ti consider getting a longer kickstand to better accomodate yoir new settup. Also, usually if u zoom in on the nav screen it will show less traveled side streets.in the area you're riding (although not all the time).
Thnx 4taking us along. God bless.
Very cool video//I was cracking up😅😅...happens to ALL of us!
That's a great scenic route. RIDE SAFE TALL. GOD BLESS YOU.
Hey tall, i have the 18/21 set up on my street glide also... they make different length kickstands so the bike wont lean over so far when on the stand being a different height. Look into it.. the bike looks great!😎
I just left there Sunday it's beautiful
Cool video nice ride
Thank GOD you made it! Question: does your speedometer and other engines gages operate the same with the different size and wheels? Or is that just an’Old School’ way of thinking 🤔?
Thanks for the ride Tall . Enjoyed it !
I was a little worried about the side stand after I put the 13 Olhins on my cvo road glide with the 21 front a little more effort to get up off of the stand but I love the shocks and the 13 I think steepens the trail some
That looks like a great road to ride Tall.
Riding through Boone. Hopefully see you out there soon enough
I carry a spare gas can in my saddle bag, Harley has them in their catalog
Not trying to be a know it all but you can navigate through your display with your thumbs on the handlebars you’d need to use the touch screen.Love you videos.
WOW BROTHER, that's crazy........👍🏾 thank goodness for downhill HUH MAN. 🤝🏾🇺🇸💪🏾
I’m excited just started watching 🏋️♀️🏋️♀️🏋️♀️🏋️♀️🥊🥊🥊🥊🥊🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
Low fuel all of a sudden... That’s a 124 thing lol. Just kidding. We have all been there. Glad you made it.
04 zx10 always caught me off guard.
No way! I was just there 3 days ago. Haha! We’ve been in the same places over and over again, but missed each other by a few days each time. Have a blessed one!
That low fuel light is your reserve :)
I'm jealous tall I have rc slip ons but those wheels are real nice man. They are a custom wheel it should ride good. Bet if you still had a 16 rear it might feel differently
New wheels look nice man! Good thing the ride was down hill ! I can’t wait to ride that road ! C ya Tall
I’m surprised you don’t feel the difference in the bumps with less sidewall on those tires. That Ohlins suspension isn’t really doing a great job. 👍
Fuel gauges are a option no days.....lol we've all had an issue at some point
Tall what tires did you go with? Have you ever considered air ride would the 18” rear rub just some thoughts love the set up and the videos
Hey brother. You had me scared to death. Enjoyed the ride. Keep up the great videos...
I live in the area and ride that Parkway often, AND I know that gas station, lol.
what size tires you have on the front and back? The bike sits so nice!
Does a radio update also update the maps in the nav unit? How do you update the nav maps?
LOL., Hey Tall.... $ 14 in gas is a Way better than a $$$$ ticket from the local federalies.... Most bikes , including my Yammy, leave you 35 clicks before the bike is a door stop. Not sure which dude conjured up 35 miles as the number.... but Yamaha Bolt is the same . Ciao
So Tall are you going to do a video on the Android auto ? What’s your thoughts on it ?
I pushed my range one day to see how far it would go. Ran out of fuel at a stop light, right next to a gas station. I did the walk to shame pushing her to the pump.
Hi Tall, I have a 21 front and 18 rear now also. What brand of tires do you run on yours?
Do you have pics of the bike with the 21” front wheel? I want to do the same on my 2020 SGS. But was thinking 22 or even 24”
Tall! Can you tell me if adding the lower fairing on your bike helped with head buffering? Enjoy the video’s! Thanks!
When is the next episode? You’re making my work time go faster 😂
Sounded a little worried. It's happened to all of us.
I wonder if a 21 inch on the front and 18 on the rear would work on a sport glide ? 🤔
Haha....that was scary...Be safe T.
Motorcycle and Reese’s Cups Humm yum yum😋
Did you have to recalibrate your speedometer and odometer with the new wheels?
Tip: I have ran out of gas on demo rides. The motorcycle will start to sputter and then you start looking for a GOOD place to pull over because it is about to just stop. Even though there was a bit of gas in the tank, it won't start. Add about 1/2 gallon of gas and you are good to start the motorcycle.
How much air do you run in that 21" and the 18"?
What kinda handlebars are yours? Are they 12in? I've been pondering on bars and got over the pointed apes. Seeing yours while riding and the way they sit made my mind up for lol thanks!
Tall has KST 10 inch six bend bars. I bought the same bars for my 2016 Street Glide. They're awesome bars and you don't have to buy extended clutch or brake hoses. Very comfortable and look fantastic 👍!
What size and brand tires did you go with?
Coming up that way this weekend might run into you...
Hey Tall, great vids I appreciate them all. Did you have to recalibrate your Speedo after the wheel change? I know it isn’t much of a change, but still a change. Just curious if that is required or recommended? Thanks, stay Blessed!
Same thing happened to me the other day on my challenger
Wen you wet from 107 to the 124 what did your mpg go too
never feels good when that "low gas " warning comes up on the screen esp when you are away from home. we rode out west this year and i had my ultra under 5 miles when i finally got to an OPEN gas station.

I talk about gas mileage in this video. Thanks for watching.

Hey Tall so there's a new update for the SG Special with Android Auto?
What gloves are those ?
Hey Slim u just got so excited about that 21 & 18 wheels u didn’t check your fuel ⛽️. And of course Leonard has fuel his a Leonard ,you shouldn’t have any problems out of that set up me myself i have a 23&18 no problems. enjoy mask up stay safe Hey Leonard. Leonard from cali Rackem👊🏾🙏🏾👍🏽
Nice twisty and scenic route. BTW, u may want to consider getting a longer kickstand to better accomodate your new settup. Also, if you zoom in on your nav screen you can see the less traveled side roads in the area you're traveling.
E doesn't mean enough.
How tall are you? I’m 6’3 wanting to know if this type bike is comfortable for someone like me.
Hey brother ever since my 14 inch apes came into play my mirrors are pretty much useless on my sgs. What mod you running to hang them low like that?
I know H-D makes an adapter to move the mirrors to the pods next to the speaker. A lot of people with batwing style fairings use those mirrors to give the front end a sleeker look.
You need to update that nav
LOL lite on the throttle...
What do you average per gallon?
E means Empty not Enough!
You don't have 2 in on the rear the overall size is the same you just have a lower profile tire, and you only get a inch higher in the front 2 in total but it's inch on the top and on the bottom of the ram
Well you do have a Gauge
I hate the low fuel light
Funny video You had me laughing listening to you laughing. Almost running out of gas is funny but not funny if you know what I mean
I can slightly hear him
Leonard..
Welcome to riding, class 101 know your mileage. Or carry xtra fuel.
Always carry at least 5 litres of petrol.
Cómo estás
Really enjoy your vlogs. Live a good life my friend. I love my evo motors. Check out my channel and listen to the old potatoe potatoe potatoe evo.
Yeah 103 and 107 have better gas mileage that that 124 lol
You didnt even do a walk around. What a waste of my time
