  • In this episode of On Two Wheels, Zack and Ari get to check two items of their bucket lists: Seeing a total solar eclipse and riding American V-twins across the heartland. The boys watch the moon darken the sun outside Casper, Wyoming, then ride back to Los Angles aboard two hot slices of American iron-Indian's 2017 Chieftan Dark Horse and Harley Davidson's 2018 Street Glide Special.
    --
    What do a solar eclipse and a road trip across the American West have in common? They’re both items that Ari and Zack had etched onto their bucket lists. That’s past-tense had, because in this episode of On Two Wheels the guys stand in darkness on the path of totality in Casper, Wyoming, during the solar eclipse last September, and then fire up a pair of big-inch American cruisers and head back to Los Angeles. It’s an iconic road trip on two iconic machines, and it’s an adventure the guys won’t soon forget.

    These 'vs' videos are just awesome. Insane shots, insane landscapes. It really shows me that riding a motorcycle will never be just about being the fastest, the loudest or whatever. It is about having fun in what you do and living the passion in riding. No matter if your bikes costs $30k or just $2k.

    Thanks for responding to my inquiry about my 2015 Suzuki Boulevard M109R and the motor oil change and oil filter request Surprisingly the owners' manual doesn't give a detailed explanation on how to do this procedure The oil itself is easy enough, but the oil filter is a bear to get out I've looked all over youtube and other places online to see how you get this sucker out, but obviously have had no good luck yet Well I'll just go straight to the dealership and ask one of the mechanics, although I went to one, and the guy had no clue I'll eventually find the answer I'll keep watching and maybe you guys can be persuaded to show this procedure anyway Have a good one

    I'm not a cruiser guy (more into naked and cafe racer), but I honestly would have a hard time in returning one of these bikes to the rental. There's something special about riding a cruiser, I mean, Ari's face in that last shot says it all, a bit of nostalgia and longing when you think that you won't get to ride more of those bikes.

    Just saw your video. Relived a road trip from Fort Worth to Casper for the Eclipse. Maybe we crossed paths. Unfortunately, I didn't purchase my Heritage Classic until Christmas. I would have loved to make that trip on a motorcycle. But, not the 9 hour, stop and go traffic jam, leaving an otherwise unpopulated state. I love it that your bike review was about the experience and not the bike. I think it shows others, get a bike, any damned bike that suits you, and enjoy the experience. My trip with my friend, made momories that will last a lifetime, even though it was in a stink'in car. A motorcycle, would have been icing on the cake.

      Five years later but this made me think. Alone on a bike or with a friend in a car? It’s not an easy thing to answer when I think about it. Lucky for me I have a kid who loves riding pillion with me (for now). Hope he’ll learn to ride when he grows up, if nothing else to always have that friend on his or her bike.

    I skipped all the eclipse traffic by camping two nights in the wilderness in Sawtooth, ID. Got to see the eclipse all alone with nobody else in sight, which was pretty amazing, and didn't have to pay $500/night for a room at a Motel 6. Did the trip in my van rather than on one of my bikes though, but there were plenty of adventure riders camped out not far from where I was which was nice to see.
    Now I just have to decide if I want to swing my adventuring towards moto-camping, or if I should stick with vanping and haul a dual-sport in the back for day-trips...

    I must say that I’ve allways been sceptic about these kinds of motorcycles, my attitude against them was like “just buy a car than”. But the more I ride on two wheels and the more I see people like these guys use them I’m kinda falling in love with them. They can be practical when there’s a bit more room and man they must be a cloud to ride on.

Also kinda funny you mention prairie but the prairie in Wyoming pretty much ends at I-25, the western 2/3rds of the state is all mountains and desert.

Awesome roads and heart stopping bike races - much better that the TT as it is racing and not time trials. Just make sure you bring waterproofs, just in case of the odd shower...
