Hey there! How are you? Thanks for watching :).
Nice 👍
Thanks for watching.
Hello great movie very nice filmed ;)
Thank you so much for watching. Thanks for the feedback.
Beautiful movie, Greetings from Germany 🌹❤️
Thank you.
Good video, Melissa! I knew you had had struggles on that trip, but this makes it seem so real. Sorry.
I have never been on a trip where something didn't go wrong, from minor issues to major problems. That is part of the adventure, adapt, overcome and persevere.
Great advice!!! Scary when you are not by my side, dear.
Oh no Melissa! 😔 Over the years i have had situations where i got stranded in the middle of nowhere all alone.
Sometimes i got help and other times it was all me. I always took solace that in the end it would work out with
a little help. ✝✝✝ I hope they found the problem and fixed it for good. On with the adventure. 😃💪
............................. 😎👍👍
Yes, God is good and I so appreciate the kind souls around me that helped.
To have Kris Kringle help you with your sled is the most awesome thing I've ever seen
Yep, he was great!
Great video Melissa. I haven't had any major issues with my Indian as of yet, but I hope I will have some of the support you did during your small crisis. It's good to have good people around.
YES, I love the biker community. They are always watching out for one another. Thanks for watching.
YES!!! I am so thankful for IRON HORSE MOTORCYCLE LODGE and those who helped me that day.
Oh man! Sounds like it wants to start but isn't getting the spark or right amount of fuel flow.. Can't wait for the next video! 👍🏾
Almost ready to go up. Monday. 😊
Tales of the road are always the best, even if we have issues! Hubby is a bike mechanic so I am fortunate if he is with me, Glad you had help!!
Are you a Lady of Harley and a member of HOG, they come right away and get it to closest dealer!!
Sounds like it all worked out!!!
The motorcycle community is amazing!
Working on day 4 where I will address the towing concerns. I learned some things about roadside assistance. Not a part of HOG or any group right now…no time. Glad your hubby is a mechanic. Would love for him to teach me a few things about motorcycles 🥰. I will learn. On my long list of things to do LOL.
@@MidLifeStyleTwins I am a national member of HOG but not involved use to be way back in my day, but staying a HOG member really helps for roadside!!
So glad you were not alone, and yesss staying tuned for Part 4
@@MidLifeStyleTwins Ya hubby does some pretty cool rebuilds etc and I need to hang out in shop more so maybe I can video him! Haha
@@HarleyGurl114 that would be great. Do a series on what we women should know to troubleshoot and maintain our motorcycles.
@@MidLifeStyleTwins I have mentioned that yesssss!!
You are awesome!! I love how you think!!! Have a blessed Sunday!
Thanks Melissa for the kind words and great footage of Ironhorse! We try to help, whenever we can.
Tim, your smile in the video still warms my heart as much as your kindness. ❤️
Hope you all enjoy the 30-60 second recap of day 1 and 2 and then our DAY 3 Adventure. Please let me know what you think. :). Thank you so much for watching.
If the starter is spinning the engine then it is "turning over" but it just won't fire. If the starter is spinning the engine at a good cranking speed then jumping the battery won't help.
You either have a fuel delivery problem or lack of spark. You could also have a lack of compression problem but not likely on a newer machine like this.
The reason I say this is that in the future , if you have to explain to someone what the bike is doing (or not doing) you can speak accurately and they will know what your situation is.
Thank you so much for that information. It turned out to be a bad crank sensor.
Hi Melissa, Being new to three wheels after many on two, my question is how do you maneuver the curves? I know there is a technique can you tell me yours?? Thanks Diane
Welcome to the wonderful three wheel world. I love it. So much more relaxed though it is important to still be alert and cautious.
When turning right for example, I pull on the right handle bar push with left. Always look ahead into the curve because you go where you look. When I first started riding the trike, I had to remind myself of these different maneuvers. Soon I got the feel and it became second nature now. Just remind yourself at first to continue to apply gentle pressure and do not let up/let loose on the bars as you are turning into the curve. You will slowly turn the bars straight as you complete the turn. There is definite need for arm strength and found sore muscles at first but now I do not feel the strain. Biceps and triceps exercises are good to prepare.
I also practice still shifting my weight a little into the curve and go the posted curve speed limit. Trikes handle curves beautifully I think but the can still tip if you go too fast.
I may find time soon to create a video on this.
Sorry you had problems with your bike but it is nice to see there are good people out there that help us along our path when we need some help. Ride safe and enjoy the ride. 👊👍🇺🇸
Thanks for watching. Yep, so thankful for all the nice people who help in times of need.
@@MidLifeStyleTwins 👊👍🇺🇸
I hate that you had so much trouble. My wife and I have put over 30k riding over the past couple of years and have had some similar experiences. We have been lucky to make it home on a couple of occasions. You can forget about hog and the insurance company about a tow. They are useless.
Hopefully you have some cell service.
Let us know how it ended up and what happened.
I am working on Day 4 now where I address just that about the towing/roadside assistance. More challenges. Also found out why my cellular service was an issue. I put 25k on my Blue Trike with no issues. It was a 2017. Kind of wishing I had it back at about then. Thanks for watching.
A Modern Fuel Injected engine with a good battery and fresh fuel, it's not a good idea to use either in warm weather.
It would have fired and run on either if it had spark. Either is very volatile and can blow up an engine.. Most starting fluid is 50% Propane to make is safer for your engine to use.
Seems you would of had some warning lights on the Dash ..
My Buell has a check engine light on 99% of the time.
Thus if with one simple try to start it on starting fluid ..and it does not fire .. It's time to go to plan B and contact a Dealer.
I would assume that ECU was made in China.. for the HD
Thank you for that feedback. Turned out to be a bad crank sensor. :(. They fixed it. Did not have any more problems.
