From, now on, you're one of my favorite TH-camrs. You mostly go to the Breweries for a nice meal/ drink, and that's what I'd like to see more of! Thanks for the great content, and giving me a great road map for my very first motorcycle road trip that I am planning to take pretty soon!
I don't know if this is still true but I noticed Oregon and Washington were not colored in. If you want to ride some absolutely beautiful country, western Washington is perfect in the summer. Preferably July or August. Seafair is an annual festival here in Seattle over a 2 week period ending with Unlimited Hydroplane races on Lake Washington with a halftime air show with the Blue Angels. Right over the water. The course is set up out from a beach/lakefront with the backside bordered by a log boom. Thousands of boats tie up to the log boom. 1 big sun filled boatfest with an amazing air show right over head. The surrounding areas east up against the cascades have river after river you can ride by from North to south. Great summer ride. Temps up here usually in the 80's maybe 90's but always cool in the evening. Great combination of scenery and climate.
Gila National Forest is definitely on my list now. Was gonna head a more northern route to Co. Next time...but I gotta ride that. Thanks for sharing these vids. Great stuff.
Hello, my new friend. Wow, that's a really nice, beautiful 💗❤💜 motorcycle ride. I'm glad to be your great channel friend 💚💞💗 Have a lucky 🌿💜💛🍁🌷❤ day 👍👍👍🤙👌
I got it a Bike Week years ago. But here's a similar one on Amazon: www.amazon.com/Larger-Motorcycle-Biker-Jacket-Embroidered/dp/B016ASWS4Q/ref=sr_1_21
I’m a lone wolf from SC looking to make a cross country solo ride. Is there a prep guide or manual that you followed? Things to pack, places to visit, etc
Nothing formal… I just looked for interesting roads near I-10 so I could run some highway and some state roads. Then I used hotels.com to find interesting hotels like el cosmico in Marfa, TX.
I had an 03 softail standard that got 50 mpg. I could count on 250 miles per tank, that’s part of the reason I had such a hard time managing fuel on this trip. The Road King only got around 175 per tank.
I use an E-Cloth brand glass polishing microfiber cloth with water when on the road. us.e-cloth.com/collections/microfiber-cleaning-cloths/products/10603-glass-polishing-cloth

Thanks! Keep watching… I’m leaving for Alaska in less than 30 days… videos will post late July

Awesome tip, thank you! You’re right. I still haven’t ridden Oregon or Washington. I hope to soon and will try to coordinate with that festival.
Glad I stumbled on your channel. I took that exact route towards Miami and those west Texas sunsets are amazing. Ride on brother!
Thanks for watching!
Beautiful ride! Great job on documenting your travels, and once again, thank you for sharing!!
Thanks!

NM-152 through Gila has to be one of my favorite roads of all time. Enjoy! And thanks for watching 👍🏼
Just want to say thanks for posting little teepee huts look cool
My pleasure! Thanks for watching
Hello, my new friend.

I'm glad to be your great channel friend 💚💞💗
Have a lucky 🌿💜💛🍁🌷❤ day
👍👍👍🤙👌
Thanks for watching!
Very good series, the camping grounds (safari tent) that you showed looked awesome.
Lots of cool stuff to see in Marfa, TX
Wow! VERY NICE Ride Safe
Thanks, you too!
Use to truck thru Texas,so glad it's over
Not a lot to see on I-10, that’s for sure. Thanks for watching!
@@CrunchMoto after looking at your ride,now I want a ride exactly like yours:)
Silver City on the Continental Divide at about 6000'. This may be why the morning was cool.
I'm still amazed at how varied the geography is in this country.
Very Beautiful Country
This was probably my favorite day of the trip.
Hello from Florida, Freedom Rider checking in man. Great trip and love that bike. Just came across your channel, you have my vote man 👊👍🏍
Thanks. Enjoy the ride!
@@CrunchMoto your welcome👊👍
Again, well done.
Thank you! Cheers
Love the whitewater center cap. I live a few miles away from there. That map that you color in on your bag where did you get it?
I got it a Bike Week years ago. But here's a similar one on Amazon: www.amazon.com/Larger-Motorcycle-Biker-Jacket-Embroidered/dp/B016ASWS4Q/ref=sr_1_21
I love Your Bike Sounds GOOD
Thanks! When I bought it used, it has these oval-shaped slip-on mufflers. I don't know what brand they are. Thanks for watching and commenting!
Prada in... nowhere 🤔
Best wishes 👍🏻
They call it "art."
Marfa is a funky little town, ain't it? Did you get to check out the Marfa Lights?
No, unfortunately, I didn't know about that until after I got back from the trip. Even so, Marfa was still a highlight of my trip!
Ok I take back my comment on the first video. I thought you were going to mostly be on I-10 you have been taking some scenic back roads!
I found myself running backroads in the morning then highways in the evenings. Thanks for watching!

1 qt aluminum camp stove kerosene bottles make for great emergency reserve gas supply. On long trips I stow one in my saddlebag. Jus sayin’. 👍
Good tip for next time! I'm pretty sure my buddies back home have one waiting for me.
I had an 03 ultra and it got the worst gas mileage so i know how you feel ......

What do you clean your windshield with?
I use an E-Cloth brand glass polishing microfiber cloth with water when on the road. us.e-cloth.com/collections/microfiber-cleaning-cloths/products/10603-glass-polishing-cloth
Hour 1. Almost ran out of gas. Day 3. Came even closer to running out of gas. God's still looking out for you.
You bet
How many gallons per mile the motorcycle gives you.
25-30 depending on speed
Nice video 👍
Also what saddle bags are those?
They're the leather bags that came on the Road King Classic.
I have a request. Please make the exhaust sound louder thank the music.
The music covers up my amateur editing skills
