Podcasts about kawasaki vulcan

In den 80er Jahren erlebte die Zweiradwelt mit Yamaha Virago und Co. einen wahren Softchopper-Boom. Softchopper? Das waren von kundigen Motorradfahrern damals wie heute gern belächelte, aber unheimlich erfolgreiche Cruiser aus japanischer Fertigung, die bald in sämtlichen Hubraumklassen (und Motorenkonfigurationen) unterwegs waren. Dank Cruiser-typischer Zutaten bildeten sie nicht nur eine bezahlbare Alternative zum knochigen V2-Original aus Amerika, sondern waren mitunter auch das deutlich einsteigertaugliche und stressfreiere Fahrzeug. Kein Wunder, dass viele ihre Fahrstunden auf einem Softchopper abgerissen haben. In dieser Segmentbetrachtung diskutiert MOTORRAD-Podcaster Ferdinand Heinrich-Steige mit PS-Chef Johannes Müller und MOTORRAD-Grafiker Gerd Mayer aber auch über das Erbe der Softchopper, weniger im Hinblick auf den Stil, aber allemal mit Blick auf das unkomplizierte Konzept: Die (teilweise ebenfalls bereits Bestseller-Status genießenden) Honda Rebel, Kawasaki Vulcan S und Royal Enfields Meteor 350 und Super Meteor 650. Über die Podcast-Reihe Kurvendiskussion: Kurvendiskussion, das sind Benzingespräche am MOTORRAD-Stammtisch, mit Redakteuren und Testern. Es geht um aktuelle Modelle, Trends, Schrauberphilosophie und alles, was uns sonst bewegt. Und auch um die ein oder andere Anekdote aus dem Redaktionsalltag, die es im Heft nicht zu lesen gibt.

Click above to listen in iTunes... I realized a few years ago that I needed to stop asking people for permission to prove myself... What's going on, everyone? This is Steve Larsen, and you're listening to Sales Funnel Radio. Welcome to Sales Funnel Radio, where you'll learn marketing strategies to grow your online business using today's best internet sales funnels, and now here's your host, Steve Larsen. Hey, how's it going, everybody? Hey, I am really excited for today... First off, it is still freaking cold here. Oh, my gosh, it's so cold. I love motorcycles. I think some of you guys know that. I'm not a motorcycle connoisseur as far as like brand and all the little nitty-gritties of it. What I know is, I like to ride them, and I love to ride mine. Right? I've got a, it's a 2001 Kawasaki Vulcan. It's a cruiser. I wish it was a little bit more powerful. It's only 500cc, but anyway. It's still crazy fun, right? And the snow has been melting here, and the roads are clear, and so in the mornings, I have been riding my motorcycle, and what was funny is, I woke up this morning, and I rode it a little bit last week, and ... Anyway. It was fine, but this morning, I woke up, and I was like, "Oh, man, it's extra cold out. Oh, man, it's really cold out. Oh, my gosh," and since we moved new offices, we were only a mile and a half away at the other one, now I'm out four and a half miles away, which isn't that much difference, but it is when you're on a motorcycle and when it's that cold outside. And I started riding, and I was like, "Oh, my gosh, that is so cold," and I start driving, I start going, I start going, and now I have had a little bit of frostbite before in my life. I was a hardcore skier growing up. We'd go like 25 times in a single season. I started skiing when I was five years old. I don't think you guys know that. I don't think I've ever told you that before, and my dad was going to go be an Olympic skier, and I'll tell you guys more about that stuff later, but ... So we skied like crazy growing up, right? And my hands and my face and my feet are used to that kind of cold abuse. Right? And I was riding along, and I'm not going to lie, but about a mile in, I was like, "My hands are going to freaking fall off. This is ridiculous. I cannot feel anything anymore." I was like, and it starts to get dangerous, you know what I mean? Because your right hand controls the brake. Your left hand controls the clutch. You know what I mean?... Left foot is the gears, right foot, you got the back break. Right? I mean, riding a motorcycle's an involved process, you can't just sit there. And so I was like, "If I can't freaking feel the grip, this is going to be a scary experience," and it was about a mile and a half in, and my face mask starts fogging up. I wear a full mask helmet, especially when it's this cold. I mean, my face would be falling off otherwise in ... That's what it was like when I was a skier, a hardcore skier, but ... Anyway, I get to the office here, and I cannot feel my hands at all, and if you guys have ever had that experience before, I don't just mean like numb, but it's where you got the actual cells in your skin, in your fingers, they start to freeze, and it's a very painful experience, until your hands go numb. They go numb, but then you can tell they're getting extra stiff and hard. You can't really move them, and it starts to freeze, literally, and it's a painful thing to have happened, but it's like 12 times more painful to have them thaw. Oh, my gosh. So I got here to the office and I was like, "Hey, I'm going to record a podcast. I want to jump out to you guys real quick," but I had to wait for like 15 minutes just pacing around the office quickly, because my hands are just throbbing as they start to thaw. It's a ... Anyways, it's an awful experience, and I was like, "Hey, Siri ... " Let me see if ... Hopefully it doesn't turn on. Okay. And I was like, "Hey, Siri," hopefully Siri doesn't hear me, I was like, "What's the temperature?" And it was like, brr, 24 degrees. I was like, "Oh, my gosh, I didn't know it was 24 degrees outside," and I was wearing gloves, but they're these paper-thin little things, so like, oh, gosh, okay. I'm not going to do that again. Anyway... Hey, super excited for today. We are still about ... Gosh. I'm so excited. We're still about a few days away from Funnel Hacking Live, and I just wanted to recap real quick what happened last time. That was a life-changing experience for me. At the time, I was about to ... So this is last February. I was still in college, but I only had a week left of school, and I was getting straight As, and I was ... I mean, I was a ... For the most part, I was a straight A student. I graduated with a 3.85 GPA, and ... Which is kind of a rare thing, but I feel like, because most people are straight A students, I feel like they're really, they're kind of tightwads, and they don't know how to sell stuff, and they're ... I just get really into all the subjects. If something interests me, I'll go learn it and try and get good at it... But anyway, so I was nervous because Funnel Hacking Live was basically during finals week, and I was excited to get there, though. All I knew is, I had to get there. I couldn't explain it, I didn't know why other than it was my tribe. You know what I mean? I knew my tribe was meeting. I knew they were getting together, and I knew there were things that were going to happen there that were going to get taught that would not be taught otherwise. It would be hard for me to learn the things that I was going to learn there outside of the event. You know what I mean? That's why it's so exciting to go. That's why it's so important to go, and I didn't have any money, though. I knew that Russell's going to be opening the cart. This is like, rewinding even more, the last time it was in March, so in like January, he was like, "Okay, I'm going to open up the ... " I think that was in, he's like, "I'm going to sell some tickets and get this thing going," and I was like, "Crap, I got no money." I was a poor college student. I was in the army, I was in ... I mean, there was a lot of stuff going on, my wife. I was trying to just keep up with school, we had two babies. We had, there's so much stuff going on, and that's kind of cool to have met a lot of you guys since starting this podcast. A lot of you guys were in the exact same situation, or are still now. It's kind of cool to bond over that, for sure, but ... And I was like, "Cool, I'm going to go find some guy that I can build funnels for who will, instead of paying me, he will just pay for me to go to the event," and this, it sounds cool, but it was like, man, the execution of that was rough, and so I went in ... Some of you guys are making a mistake when you go build funnels for people, you're trying to prove yourself. You're trying to ask for permission too much. I've done a lot of coaching sessions with you guys recently, and one of the things I've noticed in there is like, "Hey," I'm like, "Hey, now go build for somebody for free. Go prove yourself," and it's like some of you are asking permission to prove yourself. You'll go out and you'll say, "Hey, can I build you a funnel? Hey, can I build you a funnel? Hey, can I build you a funnel?" Right? And that question needs to happen eventually, but the time that it happens does not need to happen first, so what I did is, I went out and I found this guy, and I was like, "Hey, look. What I did at first is, I found a business that it was already succeeding, which makes it ridiculously easy to be successful with a funnel with. ...Hint, hint, hint. Massive gold drop, right there." Right? Go find a business that is already being successful, that, especially if it's eCommerce, it's going to be really, really easy. If they have their own list, that's huge. If they have a social media following, absolutely massive, those are like the big pieces, man. If you got to find a company that's like that and you're trying to prove yourself as a funnel builder, that is one of the magic formulas. It cannot be a new company... Okay? It's very, very difficult to do that with a new company, and you guys know that's kind of my policy. I don't do funnel building with new companies anymore. I tried that for probably two years. Half of that was when ClickFunnels existed. The other half, when it wasn't, and I was using it with WordPress, and it sucked, but okay, so I went out, and I found this company, right? And some of you guys are going at me saying, "Will you let me? Will you let me?" What I did, though, is I said, "Hey, I have an idea. I know you ... I build these things called sales funnels on the internet, and it's kind of a technobabble term. Most people have no idea what it is, which is totally fine. Anyway, your business fits perfectly in this scenario," and he's like, "Really? Okay. Oh, that's interesting." I was like, "I don't expect you to know what this is. I will pay for all the software. I will put everything together for you. I want to build you a sales funnel online... Actually, I'm going to do it for completely free, and I know that sounds crazy, but it's honestly so that I can show you that I know what I'm talking about, and that they work," and he was like, "Okay." And is a company, they sold water ionizers, and they had a whole bunch of monthly products, and they had a whole bunch of ... It was a really fascinating company, actually. Actually, it's still the water we drink here in the office now, with Russell, because I showed it to him, and he's like, "That's cool." Similar to the Kangen Water thing, but they actually work. Oh, man. Anyway. So I went out and I was like, "Hey, we're going to build you this sales funnel," right? And I went out and I built it, and I ran ask campaigns, just like you guys have seen me doing recently, which I should probably give you an update of that at some point, but I was running ask campaigns, and I was gathering all this research, and I was learning about his competitors, and I was all over the place. I was doing, I was funnel hacking, right? I was learning his competitors' businesses better than his competitors knew their businesses, right? It's kind of what you have to do with funnel hacking. It's not about just screenshotting pages. You got to, man, figure out what their margins are. I mean, figure out what the costs are. Where are they getting the ... Who's the suppliers? You have got to know their business as well as the business owner when you funnel hack someone hardcore, if you're actually going for it. Do not do a shallow funnel hack. Right? And be open about it... Don't be sold on those are the people that you're going to go out and build, that's the funnel you're going to go out and build. That was the challenge, is that I was going through saying, "Okay, are these guys actually making money? Are these guys actually succeeding in the marketplace?" Right? And I was going through, and I remember, I would get up crazy early, and I would ... Just like I do now, and I would go, and I'd hide in different places on campus where there was sweet internet, when the buildings were all closed, because I needed to funnel hack. I needed to build, I needed to get this funnel out, right? I wanted to go to Russell's event, and I had to figure out a way to get there, so I freaking hustled. And I went out and I ended up building this funnel for him, and it was a tripwire funnel. I was like, "Hey, let me walk you through it," right? And I just made all these screenshot videos of it, or I'd get on Skype with him and I'd walk him through it, and as I started showing him this stuff, he's like, "Oh, my gosh. I didn't realize this is the kind of stuff you're talking about." I was like, "Yeah, this is what we mean by sales funnels in this industry," and he's like, "Would you take over all of my social media?" And I was like, "Crap, okay. Yeah." He's like, "I'll start paying you for that. Let's see what this funnel thing is first," and as I'm taking over social media, and I'm starting to do posts and all this stuff, he goes, "Would you take over all of the server and tech stuff?" And I was like, "Sure," and I knew I had to do a lot of that stuff, just because I was ... I mean, my dad was an executive at IBM. We built our own like 115-port network inside of our house. Totally geeky, but, I mean, it's fun, and so I knew some of that stuff. He's like, "Would you take over this? Would you take over this?" Pretty soon, anything that had to do with a circuit I was in charge of, right? And so by the time I launched the funnel, I went out and I was like, "Hey, here's the funnel. This is going to be an awesome funnel. Let me show you... It works like this, and this, and this, and this, and this, and this, and the easiest way for this to make money is for you to send an email, a series of emails, out to your internal list," and he was like, "Okay." I was like, "So here's the email. Let's send it out, boom. Let's send it," and so we sent it. Right? And within the first day, it made 20 grand, and in, over the next three ... Because people open their email at varying times. Over the next week or two, or a little bit of time, overall it made I think almost 60 grand, and he was like, "Oh, my gosh," and it was all through my system. It was all through the thing that I built, and I was blown away and was changing my mindset, just I was reframing my brain. I was like, "This is insane. I've never done this before, and I'm proving myself, and I'm ... " He didn't know that I hadn't done all that stuff. He didn't know that ... Anyway, all I was trying to do is prove myself, right? That's how you do a hardcore funnel act. That's how you actually prove yourself for the marketplace, and there's been people that have been coaching with you, like I said, I mean, you guys, you're doing a great job just getting more hardcore on it. Don't ask permission. Just go build it. Right? And that's what I was telling these guys, also, when I built for them, was like, "Look, I know you don't know what it is. I'm just going to build it. If it works, awesome. If not, you'll never hear from me again," and he was like, "Okay." That's an easy proposition as a business owner. Some kid's going to work for me for free, if it works and makes money, then I'll start paying you, and if not, no harm, no foul? It's like, "What?" I ended up rebuilding his entire website into ClickFunnels, building out tons of funnels that hooked from his main website, and, I mean, it was a cool experience. I left right before we were about to launch a webinar, and that's when I got hired by Russell, and ... Man, that webinar was going to crush it. Oh, I'm so sad they didn't launch it, but you're the only one that's passionate about it, and your value proposition goes through the roof, right? So after he started making money, I was like, "Hey, look, there's ... Honestly, as far as payment, it was good for me just to prove myself to you and to myself and to the industry that I know what I'm doing on this stuff, so as a payment, I would love it if you would just pay for my hotel. Just pay for my ticket, pay for my flight," and he's like, "Okay, and so you brought in 60 grand. I can cough up a little bit of that. It's hardly anything, comparatively." And I went, and I went to Russell's event, and I totally miscalculated the days, and so ... The first night, I got my own hotel room. It was this total dump. I mean, it was like a 50-dollar-a-night hotel, and I couldn't get a car, so I was renting bikes on the other side of San Diego, and I would bike, I don't even know how many miles, but I biked a long way, all the way into the event, and so I was kind of sweaty, but I just knew I had to be there. I knew I had to be there, and I remember I ... There was a very surreal feeling, you know like those moments where you just, you are where you are supposed to be, you know? You walk in, you're like, "My gosh, this is it." Like, "I'm, this is ... I don't even know why, but this is it," and I walk on and into the event, and it was the day before ... The day before the event, it was registration, and I walked in, I was like, "Hey, here's my ticket," and they're like, "Awesome." They gave me my name tag, and it was like, "Oh. Wow." And some of you guys might laugh at that, but that's what, it was a huge deal to me. I knew my life would be changed by being there. I did not know why, I could not explain it ... And I walked in, and I was like, "Hey," I got my badge, and they hand over this bag with all this stuff in it, and I was like, "Whoa." I mean, it was like holding gold, I was like, "Holy crap. Wow," and I had biked several miles to get there, and I was biking around the bay, and I was like ... Anyway, it was a really interesting night, and I remember, after they gave me my bag and they gave me this badge and all the stuff, I turn around and there's all these support guys sitting at this table if you had any questions, and I walk up, and I think some of you guys heard the story, and it was actually Mark Bangerter. I'll tell him that I mentioned him, he sits on the other side of the window from me over there. He's like, "Hey, who are ... " Oh, and he looked at my name tag and he goes, "Wait a second, are you that guy who's pulling off all that Star Wars ninja crap on our software?" And I was like, "I don't know." And he goes, he's like, "Where do you work now?" I was like, "I graduated on Friday," and he's like, "Are you kidding me?" I was like, "No." He goes, "Get this kid an application." He's like, "What have you been doing?" I was like, "Well, lately, I've been building up a CRM with Infusionsoft that integrates with ClickFunnels back and forth," and he was like, "Oh, my gosh. You know Infusionsoft?" And I was like, "I've set up," and that's where, the company that I built a funnel for, that's where it had turned into. They wanted me to build up the CRM, despite me telling him how much they did not need it and how much of a waste of money it was, and how much it did not work, and how hard it was for it to do everything, they still wanted me to use Infusionsoft and go and integrate ClickFunnels with Infusionsoft, so I ended up doing it. And so anyways, Mark was like, "Holy crap, you know this? Man, get this kid an application," and I got asked to apply to ClickFunnels four more times throughout the event. Four more, and the peak of it all was when Russell gave the speech for certification, and he stood up and I knew I wanted to be certified. Again, part of that whole, I don't, mystical crap, whatever, but I knew I needed to be certified, and Russell stands up and he goes, "Okay, we got this thing called certification. Here at the event, it's eight grand. Besides here, it's going to be ten, and basically, by the end, you're going to be making a butt-ton of money," and I was like, "Cool." I already love ClickFunnels, I already know I'm pretty good at it, I already ... Part of it was my background in layout and design in high school. I was a head editor for yearbook, I designed all the editors in InDesign with Adobe, and ... Anyway, I'm kind of rambling now, but all I'm saying, guys, is this event is a big deal, and for those of you guys who are going to make it, I'm really excited for you to be there, and this isn't like a, I'm not trying to ... There's no affiliate link here. There's no ... I'm just really freaking excited. This event changed my life, and this is one of my ... I look more forward to this event than I do, like, Christmas or my birthday, all right? People's lives change here... Now, for those of you guys that are coming, my dad's going to be there. He's, we're building out his product for the financial ... It's called financialinvestingsecrets.com. He's got a futures trading product... I think I was just telling you about that, but anyway, all I'm trying to say is, I'm super stoked that you guys are going to be there, and when you come, already have ... For those of you guys who are just starting out, already have funnel hacked somebody, all right? That's the ... I'm trying to think of the easiest ways you guys can get the most out of it when you're there. Anyway, guys, it's going to be a great experience, and I'm excited to see you guys when you're there. This ... You know what, I'll just bring it full circle here, all right? So when I was at the event, I heard Russell give certification, and I was like, "I got to figure how to ... I do not have eight grand. I barely made it here as it is. Somehow, I don't even know how, but I'm going to make it work." Right? And I ... Some of you guys know I'm religious. I went back to my hotel room and I said a prayer and I was like, "Heavenly Father, God, I've got to get to certification. It's the next step for me. It's what I'm good at. It's what I do for Russell, I'm his funnel builder. It's what I'm good at. I've got to figure this out." And he didn't know who I was yet, and he had no idea who I was, and I walked back into the room and I kind of had this feeling like it's all going to be okay, and I walked in there and I started talking to some of the other certified partners, and I was like, "I got to make this work," right? And I started talking to Nora, who's a ClickFunnels employee, and I was like, "I got to make this work," and she's like, "I feel like you got to make this work," and I was like, "I'm trying to make it work," and the Hackathon started shortly thereafter. And I went downstairs, and there was a whole bunch of people, all of their computers set up, a huge noise going over, the smell of pepperoni pizza all over the place, people are staying up crazy late funnel building, and there was a guy there, a ClickFunnels employee who was, I won't name him now, but he was sitting there and he was building something, I saw what he was building, and I was like, "I can build that faster." And I pulled up my computer right next to him and I was like, "I'm going to beat him," and I just started hauling and all these people started watching what I was doing and I was beating him on this funnel hack using the editor, and I was, I mean ... Anyway, I'm very competitive, and I eventually met this lady whose name's Nora. She was in charge of the certification program, right? And she was like, "Oh, I'm super impressed with you. Oh, my gosh, you got to ... You've done that and that and that with our software? Oh, my gosh, that's crazy. You're in college? Oh, my gosh, I need you." And she's like, "Let me introduce you to Brent," and I go and I get introduced to Brent and Brent's like, "Cool, why don't you get ... Why don't you go apply? That'd be awesome," "Sounds good," and I was like, "Okay, sounds good. I'm literally going to go be the CMO of this other company they're building funnels for and on Friday, four days from now," and he was like, "Holy crap. You're graduating that fast." He's like, "Please apply." And the last night, I stayed up the entire night, the event was over, right, and I remember just, I needed to just act, I needed to act, and I was definitely the last person at the event. I was definitely the last person to leave the hotel, and my flight didn't leave till the next day, and I stayed up the whole night making this video explaining to them why they should hire me. I don't think a lot ... That's probably the part of the story that you have not heard. Russell's told the story before and he's like, "Hey, he stayed up the whole night because he didn't have a hotel room." Well, there was a hotel room that I got, and it was a junky piece of crap one, because I didn't have enough money for another one. I could've stayed there, but I ended up just staying in the hotel where there was good WI-Fi, and I worked my butt off, and I funnel hacked, and I built a brand, and it's actually where the basis of salesfunnelbroker.com came from, that night, right? And I created this huge, amazing video. It was only about, they only wanted a seven-minute one, so I was like, "Okay, cool," so when I made it, this awesome seven-minute video, and I'll put that video in the show notes as well. Ooh, that'd be kind of cool. All right, I'll put the video in the show notes. And I went back to college, right, and I sent the application in, right, the night before I left San Diego, and on Tuesday, right, I came back on Sunday. On Tuesday, I got a call from Brent, and he's like, "Hey, man, just saw your application. Crazy impressive. I loved it if you came down for an interview," and I was like, "Cool, I'm in the middle of finals, but what if I drove over there?" And he was like, "Okay," so I drove from, it was about four and a half, no, it was about, yeah, about five-hour drive, and luckily I'd been doing so well in my classes I kind of just left, and I went and I stayed the night somewhere and then drove into ClickFunnels headquarters the next morning, and I walk in there and Brent's like, "Hey, how you doing, man? Looking sharp. Thanks for dressing up," and we chatted for a while, and he's like, "Hey, would you go sit and just wait for a little while?" He and I talked for a while, he was like, "Would you go away for a while and Russell will come in, you'll get to meet him," and I freaked out. I was like, "I get to meet Russell Brunson? Oh, my gosh," and I started freaking out. And I went, and I started sitting in another room. I was just trying to make conversation with another guy, because I was freaking, I could not believe that I was about to meet the man who had already changed my life, and such incredible respect for him and what he's doing. Most entrepreneurs get pretty cocky... Most entrepreneurs get pretty all about the money, and, no joke, I mean, he, the guy wants to make a lot of money, it has nothing to do with not wanting to, and he makes an absolute insane amount of money, but he is more about helping people, and I'm all about that, so it was really kind of cool synergy there. But anyways, he walked in, and we met, and we had an hour and a half conversation. We talked for an hour and a half face-to-face. It was so crazy cool, and at the end of it, before I left, he sent a message to Brent, and he's like, "I want that kid. Do whatever you need to take, do whatever you need to be able to get him." And I was like, "It's Wednesday. I'm supposed to leave on Friday for Florida," and he's like, "Well, what are you going to do?" I was like, "Well, if you offer me a job, I'm coming here. I'm not going to Florida, I'm going to stay here, and I'm going to go ... " Oh, man. Anyway, anyway ... All right, guys, that was a long episode. I just wanted to tell you guys how stoked I am for click, for funnels, for... ... Anyway, this is a long episode, and I want you guys, when you who are, those of you who are coming, I want you to come and know that this is something, expect that it will change your life. Expect it, right?... I do, I did, it did, it has, and I'm really excited to meet you guys. Definitely say hi to my dad when you guys are there. I'm just, he's just getting introduced to this world, I'm just introducing him to people, so that'd be awesome too, but ... Anyway, long podcast there, but, anyway, hope you guys enjoyed it. Super stoked. If you want to turn those intro things into your own alarm clock, go for it. That's me getting stoked every time, every morning to do stuff with Russell, but ... Anyways, guys, I will talk with you later, and, yeah, I'll talk ... All right, well, see you guys. Bye.   Thanks for listening to Sales Funnel Radio. Please remember to subscribe and leave feedback.

There's currently about 8 people doing tasks for me at all times… There's no way I could do it without them… Click above to listen in iTunes... What's going on everybody? My name is Steve Larsen and you're listening to another delicious episode of "Sales Funnel Radio". Welcome to "Sales Funnel Radio", where you'll learn marketing strategies to grow your online business using today's best internet sales funnels. Now, here's your host, Steve Larsen. All right, all right, all right. I am super excited for today. I actually grew up riding dirt bikes. I never actually owned one. My brother did, I had a friend that did, and I would ride theirs a lot. It was a lot of fun. I had a fun childhood, man. It was awesome. We did our fair share of things that were dangerous, stupid, but we were just really adventuresome kids. A lot of fun. Fast forward a whole ... I'm still pretty young I feel like so I guess don't fast forward that many years, but up until right now. My wife one day was like, "Did you want to get that motorcycle?", and I was like, "What?", and for some reason she gave me the clear so I am super stoked. I've been riding a motorcycle. I got a 2001 Kawasaki Vulcan. It's a cruiser. It's awesome. It's only a 500cc so it's not like ... I actually wish it was a little bit more powerful, but it's great though. It's fun for what it does and what I use it for. I only live like a mile and a half away from the ClickFunnels office. I don't need to go that far. It works fine. It's great. Today, I took my motorcycle test and I was, I'm not going to lie, I was nervous. I had been watching Youtube videos. I've been watching videos of people who had hidden helmet cams, because I guess you weren't supposed to see what's on the test, and I was like ... it was kind of funny. I got there and I was like, "Man, some of these maneuvers are really hard." Weaving cones, things like that. That's not that challenging but there was a few parts that were challenging. There was another guy. There was only two of us. We ride up and we got out and we were chatting with him. There was some paper work we had to do. We had to tell him about some stuff. At the end of the paperwork part, he told the first guy, "You're going to go first, and Steve, you've got to wait". I was like, "All right". I stood off to the side and I watched. The guy starts, and he was a little bit cocky when I was chatting with him before the whole thing started. He had the most gorgeous bike and he had done a lot of custom work to it. He had done ... It looked fantastic. His bike was, I'm not going to lie, I had a little jealousy. It was pretty dang sexy. I will probably get a bike like his in the future because it was amazing. I love my bike, and luckily it's over on the other side of the wall right now so it didn't hear me just say that... He had a great bike. He goes and he's weaving the cones and he put his foot down, which is a huge violation. You get a lot of points for that. You don't want points... If you get so many points you fail. He skipped the last cone too. He skipped a cone, that's another lot of points. He put his foot down and got tons more points. He turns around and he's doing the next part and he puts his foot down again. I was like, "What the heck, this is ... ". It was kind of crazy because he was talking big game. Beforehand, we were checking out each other's bikes, we're looking at each others what we're riding. He had this awesome cool really awesome throaty sound that you want from motorcycles and stuff. My current bike is a little bit too quiet so I was like, "How do you make it louder?" He was telling me and showing me all this stuff. He's like, "You could do this on your own, man. You could do this on your own. You could just drill out these little screws right here and you could pull this thing out. Your bike could be so much louder, so much faster. It's amazing." I was like, "Wow". My first thought was like, "Crap, I don't want to figure out how to do that on my own." I'm really freaking good at computer stuff and funnels. That's my thing. I would rather pay somebody to make all the adjustments for me. That was my first initial thought... I was like, "Oh man, I just want this bike louder." It was funny, though, because during the test afterwards, he failed the test. He wasn't even allowed to continue. I saw the instructor get close to the other guy. The guy that was going first. He's like, "Look man, you put foot down twice and skipped a cone. You failed. I'm sorry, but you failed... I can't even let you continue with the test." He was a good a sport about it, but you could tell he was pissed, which is totally understandable. He was a good sport about it. He pulled off to the side. I was like, "Crap. That dude didn't do it. How am I?" I get on my bike and I went through and I put my foot down where he put his foot down. I start going through and I'm weaving though and I put my foot down again where he put his foot down but I didn't skip a cone. I stayed on the course... He just gave up but I didn't, which was awesome. I went through and I actually did the rest of the test perfectly. I got my motorcycle license today which is totally awesome but the guy, he didn't wait around to finish to watch. He got on his bike and he left. He was super pissed. Oh man, it's okay. It's all right... It's funny, I've been teaching my little three year old daughter, well she'll be three in December. I've been teaching her ... I walk up to her and I'm like, "Brinley, what do we do when life gets hard?" and she gets in kind of like a fighting squat stance and she just starts growling and gets her face on and I'm like, "That's right!". "Brinley, what do we do when life gets hard?", and she puts her arms down slowly while she's flexing. I'm like, "That's right! We just get mean back, right back in its face", and she's like, "Yes!". It's really funny. It's pretty awesome. She's cool. My daughter is awesome... I wanted to say it to this guy. It was funny to me though. I was laughing at how much he wanted me to go change these pipes on my on and I was like, "No! I want to do that on my own." I was thinking about that today. Obviously, it happened all today. It's actually been on my mind though, the last couple days. I've been looking around at different entrepreneurs... I've been looking at a lot of the people who either build funnels or who own businesses or whatever it is. Here's a commonality I'm starting to notice. You guys know I'm obsessed with patterns. You guys know that about me. I like to watch for the patterns that are all around us that no one's looking for. What I noticed is that people who stay solopreneurs never quite make it. You know what I mean? They never get to that spot where they're like, "I have so much money now, I can just sit back on my own." Meaning, I have enough money now where money is no longer an object the rest of my life. They never get to that spot. They never get to any place like that. I had that realization, it was a few weeks ago. It's just been on my mind and I saw it again when this guy was trying to tell me to go do all this stuff on my own, and "You can do this on your own, and you can do this on your own", and I was like, "Holy crap. I don't want to make all the adjustments to my bike because it's not my passion first of all, and second of all, someone else has the unique ability for that. Why not let them do it?" You know what I mean? I've been thinking about that. I've been thinking about that with my own business... About a week ago, I hired an assistant. I think I also told you about this, but she's been amazing. It's my sister. She's awesome. My sister is crazy good at ... She's a great organizer. She's very, very, very bright. She got straight As in high school while I barely passed, which is not a joke. I barely graduated high school... I'm really excited because I have now replicated a part of me. It's the biggest thing I've noticed. A lot of people go out and they're like, "I do this thing on the side." It's like, "Awesome". Until you actually involve other people. Until you build a system that does things while you're not there, you're going to remain a solopreneur and it's going to just basically be a hobby that makes you money every once in a while. That's the rough truth. Business is collaboration. Business is people. If you can't get another person to work on things with you ... You are already capped. You can go and have an idea that's actually not that good. You can go and have a business that's actually not that good but because there's multiple people working on it, you actually could make some money with it. Your chances for succeeding are so much worse if you stay by yourself. All I'm trying to say, the thing that's been on my brain ... The thing that's been on my head is hire people. Even if it's not full time, go outsource stuff, use VAs. I use VAs like crazy. Way before I even hired my sister Marie to do this stuff with me and handle a lot of the content part of these podcast and blog and stuff like that, which has been great. Lets me go focus on the other revenue generating things that keep the business afloat. We both win. Everyone wins because of that. All I'm trying to tell you is that ... Use VAs for parts that are amazing. It's funny. Russel's actually, I shouldn't say yelled at me because he's one of the nicest guys on the planet. He doesn't yell, but he has reprimanded me several times. Here's the scenario... I sit next to him at work. We'll be building a funnel together and he'll be like, "You know what? I wish ..." He'll say something like, "I wish this video had X, Y, and Z in it. I wish this video has a little bit different of an intro." I have video editing skills. A lot of them. I love video. I really like video. I'm not a noob at all in video editing. I was like, "Oh dude, I'll do it." "No, no, no. I'm just going to have this other guy do it." I'm like, "Are you sure? I could do it right now." "Yeah, but you're doing ... You're busy building the other thing for me." "Oh, that's true." Time will go on and time will go on. He'll say, "How cool would it be if I had this huge, big blowout poster board of X, Y, and Z." I'm like, "Oh dude, I could do it because I love Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator." Actually, I don't really like Photoshop that much. Illustrator's amazing. I digress. This went on for a while. After a while, Russel's like, "You know what? I got to tell you, man. Just because you know how to do something, doesn't mean you should be the one that's doing it." I was like, "Oh, that's a really good point." He's like, "Think about it. I could do lots of the stuff that the rest of the ClickFunnel employees can do, but that doesn't mean that I should be the one that's doing it. Someone else has the unique ability. Just because I can doesn't mean I should." It's the same thing with your businesses. They're going to feel pain of disconnect. I dare you to hire somebody full time. I dare you to take somebody on where they're completely dependent on you for their income. I dare you to do it because it will explode your business. It will make you do things you didn't ... You would have continued to plan on doing in the future. "Oh, I'll do that in the future. I'll go try and land that contract in the future. I'll go try and get that sale done in the future." Nope, bull crap. Someone is dependent on you for their income, for their livelihood and their life, their lifestyle, everything. I dare you to go do it... Even if it's an assistant and you're paying by the project, which is how I'm starting with my sister. What it's doing though, and what I've noticed that it's been doing is it's forcing ... I'm already a go-getter and I'm already somebody that wants to go take on the galaxy all the time. Bring it on. I'm a fighter, I am. I'm a nice guy, but internally, the conversation that's going on and what drives me as hard as I go is that I'm a fighter. I dare you to do that. Second of all, you've got to go hire someone. Go get someone out there because what it does is it forces you, like I was saying, to go out and close business. It forces you to focus on revenue generating activities while they take care of the managerial things. That's what needs to happen in a lot of your businesses. I've had a lot of you guys come to me and say, "Hey. What will you do here?" Look, your skills are good enough to get paid for. That's awesome. Your business is good enough... People are paying for it and that's awesome, but you personally are way too swamped so you're not staying in any kind of creative zone. Does that make sense? By you not staying in a creative zone, you're not going to stay in the forefront of your industry. Whatever it is. What if they are selling toilet paper? You can sell anything with a funnel. You can sell anything because it is basically what's going on on the internet. Those are the two things that I realize that, wow, hiring somebody has done two things. Number one, I go faster because she's taking care of awesome stuff. She's putting things together. She's incredible. She's very intuitive, solves problems without me always having to babysit her, that kind of thing, which is awesome. So, so cool. Find someone like that... Number one, like I said, you go faster. The business will go faster. Number two, you're going to be supporting somebody else's income. That does ridiculous things for your drive. Some of you guys, if you have hesitation on it, which I guarantee 90% of you guys are, and I still do. Keep in mind that what it's going to make you do is it's going to make you clarify what your business actually is. If you've just been dabbling in, "I make some money doing this and I make a little bit of money doing that. Sometimes I'll make money in this way." All that stuff will go away and you'll get clarity because you'll go, "Okay. What will turn a dollar? What is actually going to pull in money? I've got to pay somebody."Even if you feel like you don't have enough money to pay them, find a way to get a little bit of cash and don't get married to that cash. Give it to the other person... Have them do some task for you while you go do some revenue generating activity. Anyway, that's all I've been trying to say, and that's what was going through my mind when the guy was telling me, “Hey, you could do all of this on your own.” I was like, “Yeah I could but it would take me forever, and the amount of time I would spend is worth a lot more money to me than be going and watching a billion YouTube videos. I'd rather just go pay some shop a couple hundred dollars and just have them do it because it's not worth it to me." Is this making sense? Are you guys getting this? Is this sinking in that if you're in the funnel game or any kind of business at all, and you're by yourself, you're the solopreneur, you're already capped. That's all I'm trying to convey here as I say this. It's important enough ... What's funny is, even since hiring my sister a week or two ago, our revenue's already gone up. Almost doubled. It's because I get to go focus on actually generating revenue and not managing what I've already committed to creating, producing, and putting out there. I really want to know, if you could, please go to either Sale Funnel Broker, The Facebook page, or the actual blogpost to this. I want to know what you've noticed as you've taken on someone else. Again, if you want to baby-step it, which is probably the best way to do it, the smart way to do it, I'm not telling you to drop everything and just go hire people. One of the adages in this industry, if you've never heard it, is that, and I can't remember who said this, but the rule is you only hire when it hurts. That's the second part of this whole thing. Hire somebody because it forces you to do awesome stuff, but until you are just dying, don't hire somebody just because you have to ... Hiring people is what kills businesses a lot of times because they hire too fast. That's the caveat... Understand what I'm telling you... It needs to be in a balance but push hard... Go as hard and as fast as long as you can. Just go, go, go, go, go, produce, get the grind out of the way, and then when you can, hire somebody else and watch the amazing things that it does for your company. It's not something that a lot of people think about. Even just collaboration and teaching that person all that you know is amazing. It's amazing to watch what comes out of that, even in just a short amount of time. Guys, that's my challenge, understand? Hire somebody. Don't be a solopreneur your whole life. There's a time, there's a season while you're proving your business model and you're proving how you actually make money consistently. Also know that you should not hire until it hurts so you don't hire too fast. There's a strategy with this. Do you see what I'm saying? Nod with me while you're listening. Yes Stevie Wonder. I hear you, I get it. I've been putting Stevie Wonder in all my emails to Russel. It's been kind of funny. That's another story. Anyways. Like I'm saying, I want to know what cool things are happening as you've taken on just one person, just one VA, just one part time individual. Just one person who consistently does the same task and project for your over and over again... Please let me know because it's very, very fascinating to me. You got to be smart with it obviously. Be careful with it, but don't create the mistake of not hiring because you're so scared. It's better to hire and learn from it than try to play it safe in this category. It's that important. It's that huge. Guys, I will talk to you later. I just had Jimmy John's delivered to me and I'm really stoked about it. I used to not like their stuff that much but I'm really pumped. It's starting to get late but I just wanted to record this. I am going to pound this and I'm super excited. All right you guys, I will talk to you later.

In this edition of Talking Motorcycles with Barry Boone powered by Crosley Brands we go LIVE with all three podium finishers from the 2016 Springfield Mile II! Cory Texter parted company with Richie Morris Racing and fired up his privateer effort riding the Kawasaki Vulcan powered twin to a strong third place performance at Springfield. Strong right out of the hauler, Texter served notice early in Qualiying Practice that he was going to be a factor in this one! We get his thoughts fresh off the box at Springfield. Bryan Smith rode his Crosley Howerton Kawasaki to the lead with a holeshot and let 24.7 miles of the 25 mile Harley Davidson GNC1 presented by Vance and Hines Main Event. He never put a wheel wrong and did what Smith does by running up front from the initial start leading every lap but the one that counted. Did he know what Coolbeth's plan was? Would he do anything different if the race was ran again today? His goal for 2016 was to win every mile. This is his second Mile runner up finish of the year. This race was critical for his AMA Pro Flat Track GNC1 Championship quest. Following the New York round he was protested by Jared Mees Racing and AMA Pro certified the protest to be justified causing Smith to loose all money and points from the round. Winning the event was Springfield Mile II was his plan and he came up a little short though Mees had a mechanical that created a 17th place finsih. Now all await the Appeals Board deciision that comes by Sept 13th.  Kenny Coolbeth rode the Zanottti Harley-Davidson XR750 flawlessly hounding Smith every lap at ever corner for the race. In turn three on the white flag lap he held the throtle open and charged up into the high groove to make the winning pass. We will discuss that pass and the race with the veteran Coolbeth who is always strong on the Miles on his XR-750! Thank you for listening to this edition of Talking Motorcycles powered by Crosley

Listener Line: (509) 731-3548 Computer Voicemail: http://www.lawabidingbiker.com/voicemail General Contact: http://www.lawabidingbiker.com/contact PODCAST-We try to answer the question of which of the Harley-Davidson "Street Glide" class motorcycles you should buy. What are the difference and specifications? What are the difference in prices and why? Should I buy a Harley, Victory, Indian, Yamaha, or Kawasaki? We dive deep into this topic and you really have to listen in to this episode to get all the details. We call all these bikes the "Harley Street Glide" class, because the Street Glide is The Motor Company’s perennial best-seller, and the new “Special” edition is the world’s favorite bagger. It is simply a fact that Harley came up with the overall look and style of this class of bagger and the other manufacturers have been chasing it every since trying to get a piece of the pie. Harley has been developing and designing this bike for many years and the others are all fairly new to the game in comparison. Harley has had much time to perfect and test the Street Glide. Not that the others aren't good bikes, but just stating the facts. The 2014 contenders we chose to compete with the Harley Street Glidein the "cool baggers" class are Victory Cross County Indian Cheiftain Yamaha Star Stratoliner Deluxe Kawasaki Vulcan Vaquero ABS SE MSRP Indian Chieftan $22,999 Harley Street Glide is $20,599 Victory is $18,999 Kawasaki is $18,699 Star is $17,240 EFI All are fuel injected Engines Harley Street Glide is 103 CI/ 1690 CC High Output V-Twin Air Cooled Integrated oil cooler Victory is 106 CI / 1731 CC V-Twin Air CooledStar Stratoliner Deluxe 113-cubic-inch/ 1854cc air-cooled V-twin Integrated oil cooler Indian is ThunderStroke 111 CI/ 1811 CC air cooled Kawasaki is liquid-cooled V-Twin/ 1,700cc / 103.7ci Patreon DO YOU WANT TO BECOME A PATRON AND SUPPORT US?

To fill that category are two new bikes, the 750 and the 500, both liquid cooled. The 750 has a 46 cubic inch motor while the 500 has  a 30 cubic inch V-Twin Revolution X motor. Further, these motors are a 60-degree V-Twin with chain-driven single overhead cams and four-valves per cylinder. All is finished off with a 2-into-1 upswept exhaust. Here is a video and all the specs for that new bike. Patreon Thanks to loyal listener Charles Penner of Calgary, Alberta for taking action and becoming Patron of Law Abiding Biker Podcast & Media. DO YOU WANT TO BECOME A PATRON AND SUPPORT US? As we head into fall don't forget to check you motorcycle's tire pressure, both front and back. It is likely that with temperature changes you may have lost about 5 psi, as Lurch and I did. It can be tough on some models of motorcycles to get at the valve stems with a standard tire gauge. We happened to be in town and came across this handy little digital tire pressure gauge that will fit into tight places. Harley-Davidson Boom!™ Box Software Update 1.18.1 Harley-Davidson and Harman Kardon are running around like chickens with their heads cut off after the failure of the release of software version 1.18.1. It actually caused more problems than it fixed. My advice is not to update any software until Harley comes out with an even newer update version. I can't guarantee that will fix much either, but we can hope. Harley-Davidson and Harman Kardon are trying to avoid a massive recall on the Boom!™ Box system and loosing customers respect & support daily by remaining silent on the huge issues. Harley has even taken down the ability to download any new software versions on their website. I made a simple link for everyone to keep checking back to see when they have new software available. Get onto the free email list, as I send out critical Boom!™ Box updates. Harley is certainly not going to let you know what is going on.

Emails Andy Havener of Fort Worth, Texas I just bought your video on heated grip install and it is worth every penny. Although your video is on an 2014 my bike is an 2013 Flhtcu but many things are the same except in the fuse box area. Also your update on Lerches 2008 when you talk about where to wire that plug, that plug is hot already. And makes for an easy hook up to the red wire from the heated grip. All in all Thanks again and I will be watching you in the future. He referenced our Harley Davidson Brand Heated Grips Install Video William Light of San Diego, California I have a 2015 Street Glide CVO with wiring inside the bars. Before I buy your video I need to know if you run all of the wires inside the bars? MY RESPONSE: Be careful bro for sure. Even our local dealership mechanics get confused between the years and different heated grip kits until they get it in hand. I have a very good relationship with them and they tell me a lot. Because some mechanics have installed on past models inside the bars that is not the case for the 2014 and above. Many mechanics have not even seen the new kit and procedures. The bikes are very new. Right side is internal. Left side is external, but the way Lurch and I did it, you can't even tell. I could run them through my bars too, but modifications outside Harley's recommendations would have to be made. Guarantee the dealer would have to modify to make that happen on a 2015. They usually don't do that, because then the job would not fall under warranty. Donald Meitz Heated grips installed. Before I watched your video, I was more than confused with the factory instructions. After I watched your video, the install couldn't have been any easier. Thanx a lot. Donnie, 2014 street glide. He referenced our Harley Davidson Brand Heated Grips Install Video Mark Holmes of Ontario, Canada Hi. Came across your site when searching out a question about the above bike. I'm a new rider and looking at buying my first bike. I'm 6'1" at 245 lbs and have been told to start on something in the 500 cc range. Was actually looking for a Kawasaki Vulcan 500 but then my daughter said to me "Dad, if you really end up liking it, go bigger from the start" I mulled this over after thinking of another friend that essentially did the same thing, but he just went out and bought a 1600 cc for the get go! I don't think I want to go that big, but would a 900 cc be a good purchase to start with? Do you have any how to videos on Kawasaki maintenance? I very easily found the answer I was looking for here (belt drive vs. chain drive) and it set my mind to ease. I have a line on a very low mileage 900 cc Vulcan for a really good price. Just wondering your thoughts on this bike. Lurch's Response: Thanks for sending your question. You’re a good sized guy and will quickly outgrow a 500cc bike. I think you’re right. The 900cc Vulcan will be a better fit for you. I bet you can ride that bike for a long time. My interment research showed favorable results for the Vulcan 900. It’s a good looking bike and it sounds like you have a line on a good one. I say buy it! Nothing beats getting out on the road and having your knees in the breeze. We unfortunately don’t have any Kawasaki maintenance videos at this time. Hopefully we can get some done in the future. We just need to get our hands on some metric bikes. ________________________________________________________________ CHECK US OUT AND SUBSCRIBE:   Website: http://www.LawAbidingBiker.com   Email & Voicemail: http://www.LawAbidingBiker.com/Contact   Phone Hotline: 509-731-3548   Twitter: https://twitter.com/LawAbidingBiker   Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/lawabidingbiker        YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/scrappy587     Google Plus Page: https://plus.google.com/b/104041070580228657262/+Lawabidingbiker587   Instagram: http://instagram.com/lawabidingbiker     RSS: feed://www.LawAbidingBiker.com/feed   iTunes Direct Link to Podcast:  https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/law-abiding-biker-podcast/id622424087    Stitcher Radio: http://www.stitcher.com/podcast/law-abiding-biker-podcast   TuneIn Radio: http://tunein.com/radio/Law-Abiding-Biker-p562288/
