Official Website: https://www.lawabidingbiker.com This is an interview with me, Ryan Urlacher, CEO of Law Abiding Biker Media. I was contacted by freelance writer Janalee Chmel as she wanted to write a story on me for one, if not two different magazine publications. The story is at least going to appear in a tattoo magazine called Inkspired. Yes, I have tattoos and am a biker, so she thought it was fitting. Janalee has been following the Law Abiding Biker Podcast, our YouTube Channel, our website articles, our online motorcycle store, and joined our email club to learn all she could about us. She was also very interested in our Exclusive Patron Membership and benefits.  SUPPORT US AND SHOP IN THE OFFICIAL LAW ABIDING BIKER STORE I recorded this interview and let you listen in as Janalee asks me a ton of great questions. She really digs in and gets behind the scenes of Law Abiding Biker Media and how I, Ryan Urlacher, founded and continue to run Law Abiding Biker Media with all its different aspects. I share many of my thoughts from the past 5 years since the inception of Law Abiding Biker Media back in March of 2013. I started this endeavor back then with nothing more than an iPad, microphone, and computer and used my daughter's closet as a soundproof recording room. Wow, we have come along way since then.  We also discuss some of the hard times we've endured, such as our recent December 2017 online store storage facility fire where we lost all of our inventory and were not insured for it. I give you my deepest thoughts on the matter and what it's taking to try and rebuild that particular part of the business.  CHECK OUT OUR HUNDREDS OF FREE HELPFUL VIDEOS ON OUR YOUTUBE CHANNEL AND SUBSCRIBE! Law Abiding Biker Media has grown rapidly in the last 5 years and we continue to move forward into the future. Everyone behind the scenes here continues to put in countless hours of blood, sweat, and tears to serve the motorcycle/biker community. We could not have gotten to where we are without the support of that community, which I am still humbled by each day.  Law Abiding Biker Media, Inc Mission Statement: Helping as many bikers as we can worldwide using media to educate, entertain, and build a trusted online biker community.

Official Website: https://www.lawabidingbiker.com The Last Motorcycle on Earth is being filmed in Missoula, Montana by Writer, Director, and Cinematographer Eric Ristau on a shoestring budget and it's a true passion project for him. I interviewed Eric back on podcast episode #68 about his Sit, Stay, Ride Sidecar Dogs Documentary Film. In this episode, I have the pleasure of talking with Eric and his lead actor and co-producer of the film, Neil Olson.  Also involved in the film is Eric's wife, Geneva Ristau, who is a co-producer and editor. Eric is part of the law abiding biker community and produces great films for bikers. SUPPORT US AND SHOP IN THE OFFICIAL LAW ABIDING BIKER STORE It is not cheap to create films such as this and the expenses are piling up. So far, everything has been done out of pocket and on a tight budget. Eric has started an Indiegogo Fundraiser to assist with expensive items such as visual effects, sound mixing, and music composition and the fundraiser ends mid-May 2018. These things would give the film more value for the audience. There are rewards dependant on your contribution amount. Top rewards include a speaking role in the movie and more! It is yet to be determined if this will be a stand-alone film or spawn into a series. I will definitely be supporting Eric and the crew in moving forward! This motorcycle film looks so promising and I'm excited about it after watching the official trailer!  The Last Motorcycle on Earth is a dramatic series about a vintage motorcycle collector and bike builder, Conrad Mendel, as he grapples with a new world of technology that threatens to destroy his passion and way of life.  CHECK OUT OUR HUNDREDS OF FREE HELPFUL VIDEOS ON OUR YOUTUBE CHANNEL AND SUBSCRIBE! The Last Motorcycle on Earth Film Series Description: Motorcycles are outlawed. Gasoline is $20 per gallon. Self-driving cars are taking over. Silicon Valley and the United States Government have collaborated to push society toward a fully-autonomous transportation system. Motorcycles and riders are an easy first target in the drive to ban human-operated vehicles. Impossible, you say? Not so fast. Summary: The story centers on a small group of motorcyclists facing down the federal government and the tech industry as society is pushed to ban motorcycles, petroleum and transition to self-driving cars. Produced by professional indie filmmakers and avid motorcyclists in Missoula, Montana. This show is being made by the skin of our teeth and the thin tread on our tires.

Official Website: https://www.lawabidingbiker.com This is part one of my podcast interview with Ray “Izod” Lubesky, the International President of the Iron Legacy Motorcycle Club. Ray Lubesky was one of the founding members of the Iron Order MC, but is now with the Iron Legacy MC. Lubeksy says he was expelled from the Iron Order MC along with other members over disagreements in the club's direction. At that point, Lubesky and others started the Iron Legacy Motorcycle Club which now has chapters in the United States and abroad. Of course, the Iron Order Motorcycle Club still exists under new leadership.  Past Interview with Lubesky when he was with the Iron Order MC: Episode #65-Iron Order Motorcycle Club-Official Podcast Interrogation-Part 1 of 2 Episode #64-Iron Order Motorcycle Club-Official Podcast Interrogation-Part 2 of 2 We dive deep into everything you need to know about this club. The Iron Legacy claims to be a law abiding club and I can find no credible evidence to the contrary. The Iron Legacy MC is not a Law Enforcement Motorcycle Club (LEMC) nor do they claim such. They do have law enforcement members along with many other members from different walks of like.  I ask Lubesky the tough questions in this interview as there is controversy that surrounds him and the Iron Legacy MC, which was also the case when he was with the Iron Order MC.  You will definitely want to listen in on both podcast episodes dedicated to this interview. You won't hear an interview like this on any other motorcycle/biker podcast out there.  The Iron Order is a very large international motorcycle club. Like all law-abiding biker clubs should do, they refuse to follow the “Confederation of Clubs” (COC) rules. The COC has no authority over free members of the motorcycling community. They have no authority over anyone unless you willfully let them control you. For the most part, only the criminal biker community gives them any attention. Criminal bikers make up far less than 1% of all bikers/motorcyclists on the road. Instead, the Iron Legacy is a part of the Alliance of Motorcycle Clubs, which is for law-abiding biker clubs. The Alliance was created to promote fellowship and networking amongst law-abiding biker clubs. There is no fee to belong to The Alliance, but there is an MOU.  About the Iron Legacy MC: Taken from their website: On July 4, 2004 several men gathered in a garage in Indiana to found a unique law abiding club that was beholden to none. That club grew to become a huge family of brothers that paved the way for others to follow. In 2015 many of these brothers decided to start a new club to continue the Legacy of those founding principles and beliefs established in 2004. Our oaths to those founding principles and that club are intact, honored and followed to the letter as we carry that torch with us to this honorable endeavor of perseverance and continuance before those very ideals are lost to change forever. This is our opportunity to reignite the old school, traditional heritage of MC’s from the 50’s and early 60’s, following those traditions and close brotherhood all clubs seek. Our history is built on those premises established 14 years ago and we're starting our 15th year as Iron Legacy MC. Not a new beginning, but a return to the origins we swore our allegiance to that brought us together years ago with new horizons.

Official Website: https://www.lawabidingbiker.com Smaller Harley rider? This episode is a result of a voicemail we got from listener Stephanie Crabtree of Kansas City, Missouri. She asked about Harley's and smaller rider issues, mainly females. She wanted to know what would be a good Harley for her at 5-03 and 120 lbs. She wanted our opinions on this issue and that's exactly what we give in this episode.  This begs the question-does size matter? Yah, I said it.  Stephanie also wanted to know about females in a club setting and whether she should join one, so we touch on that too.  SUPPORT US AND SHOP IN THE OFFICIAL LAW ABIDING BIKER STORE The size of Harley you purchase is often determined by your riding experience and not size necessarily, as some modifications to the larger models can be made. We'll talk about that later. Our suggestion for a newer smaller Harley rider is the Street or Sportster models as they are smaller, lighter, and cost less. You could move into one of the smaller Softail models from there.  I will say that even if you're a smaller Harley rider, you shouldn't be scared off by the bigger Harley touring models. If you use proper riding and control techniques, you can easily handle a larger bike. Size doesn't really matter that much when controlling a motorcycle. Being bigger will help you if you have to lift the motorcycle after dropping it though.  CHECK OUT OUR HUNDREDS OF FREE HELPFUL VIDEOS ON OUR YOUTUBE CHANNEL AND SUBSCRIBE! Jumping on a bigger taller bike can be a challenge for a smaller Harley rider when it comes to stopping and touching the ground. Some modifications can be made to the motorcycle such as lower rear shocks and a lower profile seat. You can certainly drop inches doing these mods. You could also wear boots with thicker type soles, thus adding inches of reach. These are just a few tricks. Be careful not to go to the extreme with the Harley mods or you'll lose the rideability of the bike.  This article is just a glimpse into some of the information we reveal in this podcast episode, so you'll need to listen in for the rest. We also give our opinions on whether or not Stephanie should join a motorcycle club and what type.  New Free Video: How to Update Harley Wireless Headset Interface Module Software-WHIM-Boom Audio Device Manager Sponsor-Ciro 3D CLICK HERE!

We were filming a complete service, oil change, and service on a Harley-Davidson with a Milwaukee-Eight engine!    In this episode, we give you a behind the scenes look. The Harley dealership that performed the 1K break in service on this 2017 Road Glide did not do several things properly we found. You must hear our findings, so you can be aware what to look for! We also tell you why it's not worth your money to buy these oil change and service packages from the dealership when purchasing a new Harley. Brian will tell you the truth and he tested it.   Note: Understand that the problems we found were that of one unnamed Harley dealership. We know many great Harley mechanics and dealerships. We have found similar problems like this from a few other dealerships.    SUPPORT US AND SHOP IN THE OFFICIAL LAW ABIDING BIKER STORE!   It doesn’t matter if you have the 107 ci or 114 ci engine as the service is the same. It doesn't matter what model you have as what we teach you is the same. We are going to show you exactly what the Harley dealerships do and charge you $300 to $400 for every 5k miles. We are going to show you even more than they actually do.   The best part is you’ll have the pure satisfaction of wrenching on your own Harley right in your very own shop or garage.

Both Oscar and I are full-time Police Motor Officers. Of course, in our off time is when we create all the content for Law Abiding Biker™ Media, Inc.    We get into great detail about Police Motor Officer initial training schools and ongoing training. We discuss riding equipment and our thoughts on the different motorcycles used by different departments. I am assigned a Harley-Davidson Electra Glide Police Motorcycle, while Oscar is assigned  Honda ST 1300 Police Motorcycle. We give you the pros and cons for both and I have trained on both.    Not all Police Motor Officer training is the same. I am very blessed and get the best of initial and ongoing motorcycle training and get to compete. Oscar also gets great initial and ongoing training and will hopefully compete next year. There are departments that get very little initial Police Motorcycle Training and lack ongoing training, which is very dangerous in my opinion.    If you ever wanted to know all about Police Motor Officers from the perspective of two actual Motor Officers, then this is a must listen to episode.    Sponsor-Ciro 3D Innovative products for Harley-Davidson Affordable chrome, lighting, and comfort products.  Ciro 3D has a passion for design and innovation   New Patrons: Christopher Ray Wood of Elsinore, Missouri Joseph Dempsey of Dana Point, CA Channing Rankin of Longview, TX   If you appreciate the content we put out and want to make sure it keeps on coming your way then become a Patron too!

Official Website: http://www.lawabidingbiker.com Podcast-We spent the day installing and filming two complete Harley exhaust systems. We installed a set of Bassani 2x2 Dual Head Pipes on Matt "Lurch" Couchman's 2015 Harley Road Glide Special. We installed Python True Dual Headpipes on Rick "Big Daddy" Kane's 2016 Harley Road Glide Special.  Both these header systems get rid of your catalytic converter (cat), opening up the flow, increasing power & sound, & greatly reducing heat to the rider. Cats create a large amount of heat. Note: Always check your local, state, and federal law regarding motorcycle exhaust systems. Bassani: The Bassani pipes are nice because they are basically the exact same as the stock Harley head pipes minus the catalytic (cat) converter. This opens up the flow of exhaust, creates power & sound, and significantly cuts down on heat. They also re-use the stock chrome heat shields, which saves you money.  These headers have both 18mm and 12mm O2 sensor ports. You can use your stock Harley o2 sensors with these headers. If you want to change your O2 sensors out and use wide-band O2 sensors then you can use the larger 18mm bungs. Plugs come with the headers for 12mm and 18mm, so you can plug one set off. Putting these headers on increased the sound of Lurch's bike, because of the cat now being gone. It also increased performance & cut out a ton of heat.  Lurch was already running V&H Titan 450 OS slip-on mufflers. Remapping your motorcycle's Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI) is necessary when you change the flow of exhaust or air intake on your Harley, such as we did in these exhaust installs.  Make it easy and get a V&H Fuelpak 3 Electronic Fuel Injection Tuner from our store. We highly recommend this EFI tuner and we use it heavily here at Law Abiding Biker™ Media. Python: The Python true duals are just that, two separate pipes all the way from the heads to the rear. There is no chamber, so the back pressure is just not there. It's well known that true duals are not the number one choice for actual performance anyways. They look great and sound good though. These pipes only come with 12mm O2 bungs, which is great because you can use your stock Harley O2 sensors. You'd have to have 18mm bungs welded in if you wanted to use aftermarket wide-band O2 sensors. We didn't notice any significant increase or decrease in performance after install. However, we did notice a great improvement in sound and the reduction of heat from having no cats. We do have some back pressure because Big Daddy was already running Vance & Hines Eliminator 400 slip-on mufflers. Note: We want to thank our friends over at Revzilla for sending us both these exhaust systems for review.

Official Website: http://www.lawabidingbiker.com Podcast-In this episode we talk all about the lack of no-fault personal injury protection (PIP) insurance for motorcycle riders in many states. As a motorcycle rider, you likely have no clue you don't have PIP coverage and that could leave you high and dry if you go down on your motorcycle. Of course, insurance companies just want your money and are not going to readily advise you of things like this. In Washington State, insurance companies are not required to provide PIP insurance to motorcyclists and so they don't. Remember, insurance companies are there to make money & they're good at it. How many insurance companies do you see going out of business?  Note: We are no insurance experts, but here's some of what we learned through our own independent research.  Many riders out there get a motorcycle and are so excited that they go down and get insurance quickly and leave, thinking they are properly covered. We've been riding for many years and this subject matter just came to our attention. Wow, we were surprised. I had an acquaintance go down on his motorcycle when a car pulled out in front of him and he was injured and had to be transported to the Hospital. His insurance agent now felt it was the time to tell him that he had no PIP coverage and he was on his own for all his medical bills. Then his employer provided insurance told him that it was the auto insurance companies responsibility. Meanwhile, all the bills were stacking up. I did some research and was so surprised that I was just learning of this.  In Washington, it's actually State Law that what auto insurance doesn't pick up in an accident, a rider's employer provided insurance is required to take over and cover the bills. That is if you even have decent or any employer insurance at all. If you don't have employer-provided insurance then you are really screwed. Especially, if the other driver is not insured as in this incident.  In this case, the employer insurance company was wrong and put on notice. They quickly realized it is their responsibility per State Law and they are now covering his medical bills, but not without sticking him with deductibles and co-pays.   This is why you really must sit down with your motorcycle insurance agent and ask the tough "what if" questions. Make up situations and question them on what would happen. Your eyes might open very wide at their answers and your lack of coverage.  I also have uninsured/underinsured motorist protection on my motorcycle insurance policy. There are different coverage amounts/maximums depending on your financial needs. If an uninsured driver or someone that doesn't have great insurance is at fault then I am covered that way. So, if the at-fault driver is covered by insurance, but not well, my insurance will pick up the rest of the bill up to my maximums set forth in my policy.  There are insurance companies that do offer some very low-level personal injury coverage similar to no-fault PIP, but they don't call it that. No fault, means that medical bills for the motorcycle rider will be paid, regardless of who's fault the collision is. Beware of this PIP imitation coverage that insurance companies are advising you of and make sure it really is what you are looking for.  Understand, the maximum for this alternate PIP coverage is very low. We found that you can pay several hundred extra hundred dollars a year for up to $10k no fault injury insurance for your motorcycle. You can pay more, but it seems they will not cover you for any more than $20k. That goes very quick when you are talking about medical bills.  Some riders get that extra PIP imitation insurance in Washington State as a way to have coverage to pay their employee insurance deductibles and co-pays, since the employer insurance is going to have to cover it the medical bills anyways.  If you ride a motorcycle, have no PIP insurance, and you have no employer-provided insurance in Washington State and other States and you go down at your fault, you have zero coverage for your medical bills. Sure, they'll replace your motorcycle, but they could care less about your injuries.  That's a scary reality. I'd suggest you look at alternatives to getting some sort of protection or medical insurance and make sure to ask the tough questions to make sure you are covered should you go down. Make darn sure you have uninsured/underinsured motorcycle coverage. That way if it's not your fault and the other driver is uninsured or underinsured you are covered. Of course, you're covered somewhat if the at-fault driver is insured, but who knows what their insurance coverage limits are. Many motorists carry the bare minimum coverage. Oh, and what if the causing driver does a hit and run and can't later be located by law enforcement? Yup, another question you should ask your motorcycle insurance agent. Hit and run collisions happen daily in the jurisdiction I work in as a Law Enforcement Officer.  This gets complicated as you can see and we here at Law Abiding Biker™ Media are just everyday motorcycle riders just like you. This is our own independent research and this information was gathered from several different motorcycle insurance providers here in Washington State.  Make sure and listen in to this episode as we get into much greater detail.  Now, do your homework and check what kind of motorcycle insurance coverage you have.  ________________________________________________________________ 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/

Official Website: http://www.lawabidingbiker.com Podcast-In this episode, we talk all about the new Cavalry Bluetooth half helmet from Sena. We put these helmets to the ultimate test in a real life motorcycle riding environment. What does this helmet mean and does it work for the real world everyday biker out there? We answer this and many other questions you may be asking yourself in this podcast episode.    Note: If you appreciate our free videos, podcasts, and this information, please consider purchasing a Sena Cavalry Half Helmet directly through our store! The Cavalry has a Sena 10R headset Bluetooth system built right in and integrated nicely. The speakers are built right into the helmet and sound great for a helmet style headset. There are ear flaps that help direct the speaker sound into your ears. You may also want to check out my complete tutorial video on how to use the Sena Cavalry Bluetooth headset system.    You can listen to your music wirelessly and make phone calls going down the freeway at 70+ mph. Yah-really, in a half helmet! You can also pair your Cavalry helmet with up to three other riders for group or single communications at a max distance of 1/2 mile was our findings.   The Cavalry helmet does pair with the Sena Freewire Bluetooth transmitter/receiver. When the two are paired, this allows you to have wireless integration with your Harley-Davidson Boom!™ Box Infotainment System. You can give voice commands directly to the Boom Box system and hear anything coming out of the Boom Box such as music and GPS voice directions wirelessly inside your Cavalry helmet.   The Calvary helmet is definitely geared more towards a touring rider with a fairing or windshield, which helps cut down wind noise, so you can hear the music, make phone calls, use rider-to-rider communications, and give voice commands. The capabilities of the Sena Cavalry helmet are greatly reduced if riding a motorcycle without a fairing due to the added wind noise. If just riding around town or slow country roads, you may be able to use the Cavalry helmet on a motorcycle without wind protection.    The Sena 10R headset that is built into the Cavalry charges fully in about three hours and has about 10 hours talk time. There is also an FM radio built in with station presets. Of course, you can pair your Cavalry with Sena's beautiful smartphone app to easily manage settings. Using Sena's desktop app for MAC or Windows, you can plug your helmet in and update the software, which should be done immediately.    Sponsor-Ciro 3D •Innovative products for Harley-Davidson •Affordable chrome, lighting, and comfort products •Ciro 3D has a passion for design and innovation ________________________________________________________________ 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/

LAB-141-Motorcycle Profiling in the U.S. is NOT a Serious Issue | Stop the Propaganda

Law Abiding Biker | Street Biker Motorcycle Podcast

Official Website: http://www.lawabidingbiker.com Podcast-You may hear or see less than reputable websites out there pushing their agenda and claiming that motorcycle profiling by law enforcement is some huge out of control issue in the United States. If you are reasonable, do your research, focus on the evidence and facts, and check who is behind pushing such legislation, you'll find the real truth. That is what we want to expose in this episode. You really need to listen in to be fully educated on the matter.   Please understand, that I am totally against any and all "motorcycle profiling" by any law enforcement officer and it is improper. The very few possible cases involving such should be looked into for sure. But, let's not claim it's a big issue when it's not. Bikers/motorcyclists are stopped day after day all over the U.S. and all goes well, so focus on that fact for a moment. You'd see it on your nightly news for certain if it were some large ongoing issue.   Additionally, as I've always stated, not every member of every 1%er outlaw motorcycle gang is committing crimes all day every day. However, it is a fact that there are large factions within these OMG's that have committed and are committing criminal offenses of all sorts. This has been proven over a very long period of time with many OMG members convicted of an array of crimes and serving long jail and prison terms. I have come across many OMG clubs over the years and never personally had a problem with them.   On April 13, 2011, then Washington State Governor Christine Gregoire made effective a new law banning motorcycle profiling, which by the way was already not legal under long-standing laws that were already in place. That is my first point, and you'll see that this changed nothing, which is why it was easy for Gregoire to sign. This made the very few bikers behind the legislation happy, which is why I call it a "feel good" law. It changes nothing. Basically, the law added some minor training for new law enforcement officers, but it gives no specifics on length of that training or who monitors that it is occurring. Nothing changed as this sort of training was already in place. Oh, and the new law states that law enforcement agencies should put it in their policy manuals. Yup, most agencies already had profiling policies in place long before this law.   When you see the pictures of when the law became effective, you'll see Gregoire with outlaw motorcycle gang member and 1%ers. I can't blame her, as she likely had no clue who was actually pushing such a law. She clearly was not educated on these matters and that they were a minority of actual bikers. Sure it sounds great to say "stop motorcycling profiling", but it's not really a problem. You didn't see law abiding bikers pushing the law or standing next to the Governor in photos. Nope, it was pushed mostly by outlaw motorcycle clubs and affiliates, which account for less than 1% of motorcyclists on the roads. The more protection they can get the better I guess was their stance. Or maybe they don't really know that it changed nothing.   Be careful of the propaganda you'll see online making motorcycle profiling seem like this is some out of control issue. It just simply isn't.  Be very careful and always do your own research. On these rarely viewed small websites, you'll see a few very old videos of select encounters with officers that they cling to. Do I think officers make mistakes or act badly at times? Heck yeah, that stuff happens. However, statistically, less than 1% of law enforcement officers in the United States are corrupt or "dirty" in some way. No other place in the world can claim anything even close to that. That is a better average than doctors, lawyers, and clergymen.  We have the best law enforcement officers in the world and that's a fact.   The propaganda continues with these minority of bikers putting out a survey they did as if it were valid. This is why you always need to look at what's behind a survey before you accept it. They call it the "National Motorcycling Profiling Survey 2015-2016". Sounds official, doesn't it? That's exactly what they want you to believe, so they can continue to push their agenda. Quick research shows that the San Diego Confederation of Clubs (COC) put the invalid survey out. The COC is not recognized by law abiding biker clubs for the most part. It has no power or authority over motorcyclists. It's a private organization that is mostly made up of outlaw motorcycle club members.    The COC used Survey Monkey, a free online survey system. They sent the survey to all their acquaintances, outlaw clubs, and affiliates. They only had about 5,000 participants. I have to laugh........and this is called a "National Survey"?  By running an improper and unofficial survey, they got the very results they were looking for. The surveyed a very small minority of persons that already bought into their hype. We don't even know if they surveyed actual bikers?  That survey was not sent out to the good hard working law abiding bikers out there. If it had been, then the survey would definitely not have turned out in their favor. Their invalid survey, of course, claims that motorcycle profiling is some huge issue. Unfortunately, they are able to fool some with their efforts.   As you'd suspect, the survey is now closed and the link is dead. Nobody really knows what was asked in the survey, except the small number that participated.   Why would outlaw motorcycle clubs push such legislation and propaganda you ask? Easy, to try and further shield themselves from law enforcement scrutiny. Please understand, criminal profiling is actually legal and widely used by law enforcement today. Notice I didn't say "racial profiling" or "motorcycle profiling" but instead "criminal profiling".  There is a huge difference.  If you are classified as a 1%er outlaw motorcycle gang (OMG) by the federal government then you're already being criminally profiled. Somehow they think that when they get stopped for a valid traffic violation they can claim "motorcycle profiling", which will not likely be the case.   If you are classified as a 1%er outlaw motorcycle gang (OMG) by the federal government then you're already being legally criminally profiled. Somehow, certain OMG members now think that when they get stopped for a valid traffic violation by law enforcement they can claim "motorcycle profiling", which will not likely be the case in a court of law. You must look at the objective and subjective intent of the officer in a case like this.    You must also understand that law enforcement is not going to reveal every investigative tactic they use. I'm certain there are OMG members that are legally stopped pertinent to a much larger investigation, but the particular biker stopped may have no clue. If you play with fire, you'll eventually get burned.   New States/Laws:   Maryland:   On Saturday, October 1, 2016 Maryland’s new anti-motorcycle profiling law went into effect. Maryland is now officially the second state to have an anti-motorcycle profiling law on the books. Washington State passed a similar measure in 2011.   Boise, Idaho says no:   A proposal banning law enforcement agencies from profiling motorcycles has crashed and burned in the Idaho Senate.   Senate members spiked the proposal Wednesday, voting 13-22 after a lengthy debate over the need of bill despite receiving unanimous support from the House several weeks before.   The bill would have prohibited police officers from stopping bikers for riding motorcycles or wearing biker garb. However, some critics said police should have legitimate reasons for stopping all citizens, not just motorcyclists.   Here is what the Washington State law actually states: (Nothings really changed at all)   RCW 43.101.419 Motorcycle profiling. (1) The criminal justice training commission shall ensure that issues related to motorcycle profiling are addressed in basic law enforcement training and offered to in-service law enforcement officers in conjunction with existing training regarding profiling. (2) Local law enforcement agencies shall add a statement condemning motorcycle profiling to existing policies regarding profiling. (3) For the purposes of this section, "motorcycle profiling" means the illegal use of the fact that a person rides a motorcycle or wears motorcycle-related paraphernalia as a factor in deciding to stop and question, take enforcement action, arrest, or search a person or vehicle with or without a legal basis under the United States Constitution or Washington state Constitution.   Sponsor-Patch Addict   Use Coupon Code: LAB15 Get 15% Off Free Shipping on orders over $25   Sponsor-Ciro 3D   Innovative products for Harley-Davidson Affordable chrome, lighting, and comfort products.  Ciro 3D has a passion for design and innovation   New Patrons:   Larry Daniels Sr. of Mount Vernon, OH Zachary Brooks of Forney, TX Eddie Davis of Columbus, GA Paul Kelly of Glenolden, PENNSYLVANIA Zachary Norton of Richland, WA Terry McDonough of Medford, Oregon   If you appreciate the content we put out and want to make sure it keeps on coming your way then become a Patron too!

Check out our video titled, Install Handlebars Harley Dyna, Softail, Sportster | Extend Wires & Cables.  The 2016 Dyna Low Rider S (special) was the first for this model. Harley is making some "special" models. Although they are not a "CVO" model, they are somewhat of a "one off" bike and they have some special things about them. Harley seems to be doing this with other models too. Our 2016 Dyna Low Rider S came stock with the Screamin’ Eagle Twin Cam 110 engine (1,801 cc) on this small frame bike. And she really rips! It also came stock with cruise control and throttle by wire. It has a cable clutch and not hydraulic clutch, which we would have preferred.  It also comes with upgraded suspension, the six-speed transmission, ABS brakes, and dual front disc brakes.  We put Vance & Hines Short Shots Staggered exhaust and we tuned the electronic fuel injection (EFI) using a Vance and Hines Fuel Pak 3. The bike came with a stage one Screamin Eagle air intake. I am really digging riding this bike now that we have it all setup!

I read your information and there is something that you should know. I'm a retired Police Officer from York Region and have had bikes for 40 odd years. I have about 14 now.  In August of this year I purchased a new Harley Ultra Limited Low. When I picked up my new bike, they showed my how the security system works and taking their advise, I changed the code. Safe and secure!  In October I had my bike in the garage and attempted to start it. It would not start and a member came up to trailer it to the dealership. This gentleman made several attempts to start the bike without any luck. He asked me for my security code and I told him I had forgotten it. He then told me that he could override my code and start the bike.   I was curious and again asked him how he could override my security code. He told me that the dealership people have the knowledge to do this override! Interesting. So basically dealership employees could steal my bike! Turns out there was a module in the starter circuit that burnt out. They fixed it the next day..good service!

Official Website: http://www.lawabidingbiker.com Podcast-In this episode we talk about Rick (Big Daddy) Kane's large-scale project he just completed on his 2001 Harley-Davidson Road King, named  "Chola".  This bike has a ton of rich history and you really need to go back and listen to Podcast Episode #106, where Rick breaks it all down for you.  That will help you have a more true appreciation for this current project. Check out the Official Law Abiding Biker Store! Rick decided to do a full electronic fuel injection (EFI) to carburetor conversion on Chola. Yah, this is not something you hear about being done very often, but it can be and is done on occasion. Of course, there are reasons to do something as drastic as this. In Rick's case, he was having troubles with the older Magneti Marelli style EFI system Harley used from 1995-2001. These systems did not utilize O2 sensors in the exhaust for tuning. TheseMagneti Marelli systems are well known for causing problems and annoyances.  In 2002, Harley-Davidson switched and started using the Delphi EFI systems on their motorcycles, which are more reliable and utilize exhaust O2 sensors for proper tuning. This Magneti Marelli system left us stranded late one night in the middle of nowhere in the pitch black. I followed and Rick was barely able to limp the bike back to town.  Listen in as we tell the story. These types of EFI problems require expensive computers to properly diagnose.  So, Rick took it to a friend of ours at a dealership to diagnose it with their computers. Things were never just right after several times to the shop to diagnose and Rick spent about $800. He actually had to push his Road King home about 1 1/2 miles!  It ended up being recurring annoying problems with the cam timing sensor and neutral throttle sensor. Rick decided he'd had enough with the Magneti Marelli EFI system and wanted to get rid of it all together. He could have converted to the new Delphi EFI system but has always loved carburetors. Rick made the decision to do a full conversion from Magneti Marelli EFI to a carburetor system instead. Once and for all, he wanted no more problems with his 2001 Harley-Davidson Road King. Listen in as Rick describes the exact process he went through and the exact parts he used to make the carb conversion. He lays it all out for you in this episode and tells of what carburetor he went with. Rick is a wealth of knowledge on this subject and I learned a ton from him.  He has some great resources for you if you might be contemplating this project.

Official Website: http://www.lawabidingbiker.com Podcast-In this episode we play a voice message from Cody Case, who is a long-time supporter of Law Abiding Biker™ Media. Cody was involved in a motorcycle collision a week before Street Vibrations and he totaled his Harley. We are super thankful Cody was not seriously injured in the crash.   Cody was following a vehicle pulling a trailer with no lights or turn signals, which stopped in front of him. Cody rear-ended the trailer. Per Cody, the driver had no license or insurance. The other driver was cited and Cody received NO citations from law enforcement.   Check out the Official Law Abiding Biker Store!   Cody was insured through Geico motorcycle insurance. Even though Cody received no citations, Geico motorcycle insurance told him the collision was his fault and they doubled his monthly rates.   Listen in as we discuss Cody's incident and weigh in on the laws regarding appropriate following distances for motorcyclists. We also discuss civil infractions and the burden of proof in comparison to civil litigations and insurance company decisions. Each state has their own laws in regards to appropriate following distances. It is hard to paint a broad picture and things will vary on how both Law Enforcement and insurance companies deal with following too close.   Let me share Revised Code of Washington (RCW) 46.61.145 since that is where I reside.   Following too closely. (1) The driver of a motor vehicle shall not follow another vehicle more closely than is reasonable and prudent, having due regard for the speed of such vehicles and the traffic upon and the condition of the highway. (2) The driver of any motor truck or motor vehicle drawing another vehicle when traveling upon a roadway outside of a business or residence district and which is following another motor truck or motor vehicle drawing another vehicle shall, whenever conditions permit, leave sufficient space so that an overtaking vehicle may enter and occupy such space without danger, except that this shall not prevent a motor truck or motor vehicle drawing another vehicle from overtaking and passing any like vehicle or other vehicle. (3) Motor vehicles being driven upon any roadway outside of a business or residence district in a caravan or motorcade whether or not towing other vehicles shall be so operated as to allow sufficient space between each such vehicle or combination of vehicles so as to enable any other vehicle to enter and occupy such space without danger. This provision shall not apply to funeral processions.   Cody's incident demonstrates that insurance companies will find you at fault when rear-ending another vehicle regardless if it had working lights/signals or not. They seem to follow the rule that motorcyclists need to leave enough following distance to stop even if the vehicle they are following stops suddenly, stops for no reason, or does not have lights/signals. It really seems to be the complete responsibility of the following motorcycle rider to make certain they have all the room necessary to stop in any circumstance.   Regardless of insurance, as riders, we must be mindful of our safety first. Insurance company decisions are secondary. If we don't leave a safe following distance to avoid a collision, we may not get a second chance. We all get comfortable and think we can stop faster than we can on our motorcycles. I say, if you are following a car and it seems to be a safe distance, double it and you're probably safe. It is hard for our mind to calculate time and distance real time. We tend to feel overly confident when riding our motorcycles at times.   Sponsor-Patch Addict   Use Coupon Code: LAB15 Get 15% Off Free Shipping on orders over $25   Sponsor-Ciro 3D   Innovative products for Harley-Davidson Affordable chrome, lighting, and comfort products.  Ciro 3D has a passion for design and innovation.   If you haven't been to a riding course and practiced emergency braking, please do so.

Of course, this is dependant on what brake system you have, the weight of your bike, tires, etc. After much practice, you'll realize that you'll gain confidence and improve your motorcycle emergency braking skills, thus stopping faster.  A safe following distance is always the best practice, so you don't have to emergency brake.   The two-second rule   Under normal conditions, the two-second rule is an easy way to make sure you have left enough following distance between your vehicle and the vehicle in front, no matter what speed you're traveling at.   To check if you are traveling two seconds behind the vehicle in front:   watch the vehicle in front of you pass a landmark - such as a sign, tree or power pole - at the side of the road as it passes the landmark, start counting 'one thousand and one, one thousand and two' if you pass the landmark before you finish saying those eight words, you are following too closely - slow down, pick another landmark and repeat the words to make sure you have increased your following distance.  Note: Consider a 3-second rule to be much safer. 2 seconds is the minimum.    New Patrons:   Dan Currie of West Kelowna, British Columbia Steven Farmer Ryan Watson of Bonney Lake, WA Mike Pruitt of Jonesboro, Arkansas Harold Bohn of Pinckney, MICHIGAN Scott Gillies     If you appreciate the content we put out and want to make sure it keeps on coming your way then become a Patron too!

Official Website: http://www.lawabidingbiker.com Podcast-In this episode Chewy, Lurch, and I tell you everything we have learned about the new Sons of Anarchy spinoff pilot that has been ordered by FX called the Mayans MC that will start shooting in March 2017.  The Mayans MC show is officially happening, according to FX. This is no longer a rumor, it's an official series on the network's schedule. Sons Of Anarchy aired its finale in 2014 and many of us have longed for a spinoff series. SOA was the highest-rated ongoing drama series in FX history. We hope some of that greatness can spill over into this new show. Production on the pilot is set to begin in March and will be set in a post Jax Teller world. The show is said to follow EZ Reyes, a Mayan prospect, who will struggle with his desire for vengeance against the local cartel and his need for the women in his life to respect him. The show is set on the Mexi/Cali border. The Mayans, a Latino MC, controlled Northern, CA and all of Nevada during the SOA series. Emilio Rivera played the role of the President of Mayans Oakland Chapter in the SOA Series. It hasn't been confirmed that he's reprising his role as Marcus Alvarez, the president of Mayans MC, but his social networks have let fans know that he is involved with the show in some fashion. Both he and Sutter have posted numerous photos of themselves, the Mayans, and teases about the show. It seems Charlie Hunnam, who played Jax Teller, in the original SOA series will not be involved in the Mayan's MC show at all. The show will be directed by “Sons” creator Kurt Sutter from a script from Sutter and Elgin James. Sutter will serve as executive producer, with James as co-executive producer.  We think between these two individuals we should get a very creative and interesting show. Mayans MC will most likely take the Tuesday night slot that was previously held by Sons Of Anarchy. While an official premiere date hasn't been released by the FX network or Kurt Sutter, the show is expected to debut in Fall 2017. Mayans MC will most likely take the Tuesday night slot that was previously held by Sons Of Anarchy. There is much speculation on the exact story line of the show. Will we see Sons of Anarchy club members appear in the series? Or will they not integrate SOA at all? The show may go completely in its own direction.

Law Abiding Biker | Street Biker Motorcycle Podcast

Official website: http://www.lawabidingbiker.com Podcast-A special thanks to guest Evan Grist of Fort Collins, Colorado, who is an electrical engineer and affiliated with RMSTATOR, a manufacturer of high-end power sports electrical parts.  Via Skype, we were able to bounce our questions off Evan. In this episode, we'll teach you everything you need to know about your Harley-Davidson charging system. We break it down to what bikers actually need to know in an understandable way.  Your Harley-Davidson, or most motorcycles for that matter, use the same type of charging system, often referred to as a permanent magnet alternator. In a car, an alternator is belt driven. In a motorcycle, it is driven by magnets embedded around the flywheel. The flywheel is permanently affixed to the crankshaft, which is spinning with the engine RPM's.  Check out the Official Law Abiding Biker Store! So, the easy way to generate power is with a stator inside that flywheel magnet system.  A stator is a metal core and is made up of a bunch of stamped steel plates that are riveted together. It's insulated with some sort of powder coat or plastic to protect the wires. There are windings wrapped around it, which are a particular gauge of solid core copper wire that's insulated. So, you end up with coils of wire wrapped around the stator. Those are attached to a wiring harness, which exits the side case of the motor & heads to the regulator/rectifier. And finally, to the battery to charge it. With the motor running, you have your crankshaft spinning with the flywheel attached to the end with the magnets spinning outside of the stator. Those magnets spinning past and around the metal core with wire wrapped around it generates electricity. And there you have it.  You may hear this referred to as an alternator at times. If you hear someone call this an alternator on a motorcycle, they are generally referring to the entire package, the flywheel and stator.  You do see Harley-Davidson refer to it as an alternator in their manuals. Regulator/Rectifier: The alternate current (AC) current created by the stator cannot be sent directly to the battery. It needs to be prepared, limited, and changed to direct current (DC) to correctly charge your battery. The current would destroy your battery if not first sent to the regulator/rectifier.  In a motorcycle, the stator flywheel set up creates electricity and sends it to a separate regulator/rectifier. In a car, the rectifier/regulator is built into the alternator. On a Harley-Davidson, you'll recognize the separate regulator/rectifier as a little black box with cooling fins machined into it and it often times sits up front behind the rear tire attached to the frame. Regulator/Rectifier=2 Functions: Rectifier: The rectifier is responsible for converting the alternate current (AC) current created by the stator to direct current (DC). Basically, it chops off the negative polarity portion of the current that the battery can't use. Then it passes the current to the battery. Regulator: The regulator protects the battery voltage and when the battery voltage climbs too high it shuts off current to ground and bleeds it off as heat. That is what the heat fins on the regulator box are for, to dissipate the heat. If the regulator did not monitor the voltage to your battery it would destroy it. Note: Often times a bad regulator can do just that, send too much voltage to the battery. Battery: All the current required to run your motorcycle comes from your battery. The stator system charges your battery and replenishes it. You could actually run your motorcycle just fine for some time without a working stator as the battery has reserve current. Of course, the battery would eventually die. Aftermarket High Output Stators: If you add too many electrical accessories then you'll come a point that your stator just can't produce enough current to keep the battery charged. There may be subtle hints over time-like your bike starter is sluggish and has trouble cranking the motor over. There are available aftermarket high output stators. However, it is not wise to install an aftermarket high output stator just because. You should only do this if you actually need it to keep your battery charged.  If your motorcycle is not consuming all that extra current the high output stator is producing then you end up dumping that entire load on your regulator. This is a quick way to ruin your regulator by overheating it. Can I test the load my electrical accessories are creating? You can look in your service manual and see what your stator is rated for in amps. Then you can find your electrical accessories (lights, heated grips, heated seats, stereo amps etc) you have added and find out what wattage they are rated for.  A good rule of thumb is you can convert to power by multiplying the stator amps (current) x the battery (voltage). You can use 13 as a good all around battery voltage. That is a good healthy battery staying charged just above 12 volts. Example only: Let's say the stator is rated for 10 amps x 13-volt battery: 10 x 13=130 watt charging system. So you have a 130-watt charging system in this example. Now, you can take the wattage of all those electrical accessories and see if you're under or over your 130 watts and how much you have to play with. Volt Meters: You can check your system by putting a volt meter on your battery. Or add a volt meter gauge to your motorcycle. I have a Vance & Hines Fuelpak 3 Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI) tuner on my Harley. It syncs to my smartphone wirelessly via Bluetooth and I can monitor real-time data such as voltage. My smartphone is attached to my handlebars with my Biker Gripper Mount. You can turn all your electrical accessories on and make sure you have your engine at a good regular riding RPM, so your stator is charging at full output. Note: if your meter is reading anywhere at or above 13 volts you are in great shape. Remember, your Harley is a 12-volt system, so just above that means it can keep up. 13 volts is the point where the battery is not discharging with all your accessories on. Regulation Point: Generally speaking, 14.6 volts is a hard set regulation point on most 12 volt systems such as a Harley. Basically, this does not allow the regulator to send voltage to the battery any higher than 14.6 volts. Harley Charging System Failures: Stator Failure: If the stator fails, your battery will no longer be charging when you're riding your motorcycle.  Often times, a short can happen in the windings around the stator. The insulation on the wires can wear down over time or a wire can break. If the copper inside the insulation rubs against the flywheel as an example, you could have the windings short to ground. This is a problem because it all loops back to the regulator through your battery negative connection.  The motor, the frame, and everything metal on the motorcycle are tied to battery negative. Battery negative is tied to the regulator and the regulator is tied to the stator and it loops back. If you have a short to ground then you have no output from the stator. Multi-Meter & Testing Stator: Recommended Multi-Meter Tester Here (affiliate link) Find where your 3 stator wires are. On a Harley, this is up front near where the inner primary connects to the motor case. Right by the seam. The three wires will track straight from there to your regulator/rectifier. You'll want to measure the resistance between each pair of those wires. The rule of thumb is to look for a low number, around  0.7 Ohms due the size of wire used for this application.  You can really measure anywhere under an Ohm. The main thing you want to see is that you are getting the same number between the three wires.  Test 1: Set your multi-meter to the lowest resistance range it has. Take the three measurements. If they are all the same then your stator windings are in tact and all three coils are in good shape.  Test 2 Measure from each of those three stator wires to a good frame ground, such as a good clean motor mount bolt, battery negative terminal, or whatever you have that is good and clean and connected to the metal of the motor. Using this test, you should see an "open". You should see an infinite resistance, no connection, no short from any winding to ground. **If you pass both these tests you can be 99% certain your stator is good. Regulator/Rectifier Failure: Here is a technical document Evan Grist wrote on testing a rectifier. Multi-Meter Regulator Testing: Assuming your rectifier part of the unit is still working, you'll see current flowing to your battery. You will see your battery voltage increasing because it has current flowing into it. If you suspect the regulator part of the unit is not working, you can set your multi-meter to the "DC Volts" setting, generally a 20-volt setting. Then connect it to your battery, start your motorcycle, and rev it up. Ideally, if the regulator is working fine you'll see the battery voltage increase from around 12.8-13.2 volts at idle and increase when the motor is revved up to around 14.6 volts. **If you see results above 15 volts then you likely have a bad regulator. If you were to ride with 15 volts going to the battery then it will be destroyed.  RMSTATOR MOSFET Regulator/Rectifier Upgrade Kits for Harley: The standard Harley regulator uses an electrical component in it called an SCR, silicon controlled rectifier, which is a little electrical switch. When the regulator sees your voltage climbing to high to the battery it shorts the stator wires to ground, which kills all the output from that leg of the stator. The regulators that use the silicon controlled switches are just not very efficient. The electrical switches do not shut on and off quickly and they get very hot. That heat over time can cause regulator failure. A MOSFET, Metal Oxide Semi Conductor Field Effect Transistor, regulator is a very nice upgrade. This transistor runs much cooler, switches much quicker, has simpler circuitry to control it, which in turn means a longer life.  Additionally, your battery will be much happier as it is much more efficient. When the MOSFET switches current on and off to the battery it is much more efficient, so you end up with much more stable battery voltage. You will see much less voltage fluctuation at the battery, which increases battery life. Use coupon code EGPOD10 for 10% off anything on the RMSTATOR website! So, you get a longer regulator and battery life! Evan Grist recommends the following regulator/rectifier kit for your Harley-Davidson electrical system. Universal Mosfet Harley Voltage Regulator Rectifier from RMSTATOR.  Harley-Davidson Specific Regulator Rectifier from RMSTATOR. If you upgrade your stator, you'll definitely want to upgrade your regulator/rectifier as it may be working harder regulating the additional current.

CHIP's was a classic TV show and I loved watching it as a young boy.  The show ran 6 seasons, from 1977-1983.  The movie stars Dax Shepard, who will be playing Officer Jon Baker and Michael Pena who will fill the role of  Officer Frank “Ponch” Poncherello.  Shepard also wrote and directed the new movie. Other cast includes Vincent D'Onofrio, Adam Brody, Rosa Salazar, Vida Guerra, and Kristen Bell. Principal photography began on October 21, 2015 in Los Angeles. The film is scheduled to be released on March 24, 2017 by Warner Bros. Pictures.  This movie is really not a replication of the original CHIP's TV series. Instead, it is an action comedy and Hollywood put their flare on it for sure. There are high-speed chases, motorcycles, and explosions. There looks to be much comedy between Pena and Shepard in the trailer.  Many relate the comedy between Shepard and Pena as that of a Lethal Weapon movie.  So, just go into this new movie with the mindset that it will be nothing like the original TV show and instead, a completely different experience. The story line is that there are corrupt officers in the California Highway Patrol (CHP) and Pena is sent in by the FBI to infiltrate. Shepard's real-life wife, actor Kristen Bell, is also in the movie. She stars as Shepards "Trashy, Estranged Wife" Shepard is fairly skilled on a motorcycle and did his own stunts, while Pena looks to not be such a good rider and a dolly is seen balancing his motorcycle in many behind the scene photos. Interestingly, they chose to ride Honda ST 1300's for the movie. It is our understanding that the real California Highway Patrol Motors Officers currently ride Harley-Davidson motorcycles with some left over BMW's they are phasing out. So, we're not sure why they chose Honda's, but hey it's Hollywood. They rarely get anything accurate. Our opinion is that it will be worth seeing this new CHIP's movie.  It's got motorcycles, action, explosions, and some great humor from what we can see from the trailer.

Check out our Routine Maintenance & Oil Change for 2009 & Newer Victory Motorcycles with Freedom 106 V-Twin Motor Video Victory began in 1998 with sales peaking in 2012. Since then, they have declined over the years and in 2015, Victory represented only 3 percent of total Polaris sales. It is reported that Victory dealerships only sold about 20 motorcycles a year.   Polaris has lost money in Victory 3 out of the past five years. Add in the recent recalls over the Slingshot and its side-by-side vehicles, and their decision to give up Victory is understandable.

LAB-130-Should You Start or Idle Your Motorcycle During Cold Winter Weather?

Law Abiding Biker | Street Biker Motorcycle Podcast

Official Website: http://www.lawabidingbiker.com Podcast-In this episode we break down the old myth that you should go out during the winter every so often to start your motorcycle and let it idle for a bit to warm it up. Many think this will keep things lubricated and that it is good for the motor to do this. Heck, I used to do it because that's what my father always did with sitting cars. This particular subject matter came up in the Patron Only Private Facebook Group. If your not in this group you should consider it, because a ton of reliable information and discussions are in there. Many bikers can't ride during certain snow months and head out to the old garage, fire up their motorcycle, drink a beer, maybe have a cigar, and let their bike run for 15-20 minutes. They shut her down and head back into the house.  Is this a good practice? Now that I am more educated, I realize this is actually a bad thing to do to your motorcycle's engine or any engine for that matter. You're better off just letting your motorcycle sit unless you are actually going to ride it for a fair distance. You see, idling your motorcycle in the cold not only wastes fuel, but it's also stripping oil from critical components that help your engine run, namely the cylinders and pistons. Normally, your motorcycle engine runs on a mixture of air and vaporized fuel. When that mixture enters a cylinder, a piston compresses it, which generates a combustion event, powering the engine. New Patrons: Tony Falvo of Coatesville, Pennsylvania Roy Skaggs David Duffey of Jackson, Tennessee If you appreciate the content we put out and want to make sure it keeps on coming your way then become a Patron too! There are benefits and there is no risk. You can also support us via a flat donation: When it's cold outside the gasoline is less likely to evaporate. Your motorcycle purposely runs "rich" and compensates for this initially by adding more gasoline to the air-vapor mixture. That's the problem,  you're actually putting extra fuel into the combustion chamber to make it burn and some of it can get onto the cylinder walls. Gasoline is a great solvent and it can actually wash oil off the walls if you run your motor in those cold idle conditions for an extended period of time. Over time, that can have a detrimental effect on the lubrication and life of things like piston rings and cylinder liners.  This can have a serious effect on the overall operating life of your engine. Myth busted; idling your motorcycle does not prolong the life of your engine; rather it shortens it. Your motorcycle doesn't run rich the entire winter. It only happens when the gasoline is cold. Once your engine warms up to about 40 degrees Fahrenheit, the car transfers to normal fuel-consumption rates. You might think by idling your motorcycle, you're warming it up, which will prevent this problem. Idling doesn't really get the engine up to temperature, and until that happens the engine control module (ECM) on the engine is going to keep sending a rich-fuel mixture to the cylinders so that it can ensure that enough is evaporated for a consistent combustion event. The best and only real way to get your motorcycle engine's temperature up is to actually go out and ride! If you can't ride because of ice and snow, then just don't start your bike at at all. When you ride in those colder temperatures, letting your motor run for about thirty second to a minute is a good standard before you take off.  Once you take off, don't just immediately open up the throttle and rip on it. Ride gently for a bit to give it time to warm up or you'll put unnecessary stress on your engine.  It can take 5-15 minutes for your engine to warm up depending on the driving conditions. Also, because your motorcycle is going to run a bit rich before the engine reaches 40 degrees Fahrenheit, you're going to get lower gas mileage than usual. Definitely keep your motorcycle battery on a tender or it'll go bad! This is a great one! Click on the picture to check it out. (affiliate link/support us) Why the Myth? The myth started in an age when all motorcycle engines relied on carburetors. Then came the standard application of fuel injection. The main difference is that electronic fuel injection comes with a sensor that feeds the cylinders the right air-fuel mixture to generate a combustion event. Carburetor-run motorcycles lacked this important sensor. If your gasoline was too cold, your car wouldn't run rich, it would simply stall out. In those days, it was important to get the carburetor warm before driving. Those days are gone........ Another Private Patron Only Facebook Group Subject we covered: Oscar writes: Wanted to let you all know about my K&N filter problem so you can check yours out before the big Sturgis trips. Recently I found that my stage 1 K&N filter (aftermarket stage 1 kit 2013 Limited) looked like it had deformed. I reached my finger to the point where the intake met the filter and found an open air gap large enough to get my pinky into the intake chamber. I checked with our local service manager and one of our dealership mechanics and found it happens but is very uncommon. I checked the KN and went with the Harley filter for now because no one had a replacement. Check your filters, they should be tight against the intake shoulder. With mine I could literally pry it up off the intake without much force. We don't want to be riding through any large storms with a faulty filter. ________________________________________________________________ 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/

This motor is a cooler and quieter motor from Harley-Davidson, which were several of their major goals in the redesign. Several days after recording this podcast I had the opportunity to spend some time with a crushed ice pearl colored 2017 Harley-Davidson Street Glide Special with the Milwaukee-Eight 107 ci motor. I filmed the bike in detail and went over the specs and information for you. I then did a MotoVlog for you as I took her for a test ride.

Official Website: http://www.lawabidingbiker.com Podcast-Many of you requested we do a follow-up podcast episode on the violent criminal biker gang shooting that occurred in Waco, Texas at the Twin Peaks Restaraunt on Sunday, May 17, 2015 that left nine bikers dead and many others hospitalized. We listened and go in depth in this two-part podcast series. Don't forget to listen to podcast episode #78 & read the article we released shortly after the incident. It has been about one year now since these violent acts took place between the Bandidos Motorcycle Club and the Cossacks Motorcycle Club. These motorcycle clubs are designated as outlaw motorcycle gangs (OMG's). The Bandidos claim 1%er, but the Cossacks do not. The clubs were both present at the Twin Peaks Restaraunt to attend a Confederation of Clubs (COC) meeting. The Bandidos control the Texas COC and want the Cossacks to pay them dues. The Cossacks refused to pay the COC dues and also decided to start wearing a "Texas" bottom rocker on the back of their vests, against the advice of the Bandidos. The Bandidos MC believes only they have the right to wear that Texas rocker. There had been many documented violent feuds between the clubs leading up to this shootout. The Cossacks claim they were at the COC meeting to ask for a truce. 154 out of the 174 bikers arrested that day have been indicted for engaging in organized criminal activity. Most are out on bail and it will be some time before many ever see a court room. It is a large-scale investigation that is ongoing. Over 1000 weapons were recovered throughout the crime scene. Guns, knives, brass knuckles, hammers, tomahawks, machetes, bullet proof vests, and even an AK-47 assault rifle were recovered. These criminals hid guns in bags of potato chips, between bags of flower, and tried to stuff them down toilets. In the words of Sgt. Swanton of the Waco, Texas Police Department, "They were not here to eat barbecue and drink beer".  I agree with his thoughts that these criminal biker gangs were there for trouble. It is clearly demonstrated by the amount of weaponry recovered and the way they were hidden. This kind of evidence shows these clubs true intentions. Shortly after the Waco incident, Bandidos National President Jeff Pike and several other top Bandidos leaders were arrested and federally indicted. Not for the Twin Peaks incident, but for a federal investigation that was already ongoing. The indictments were for assault, murder, and extortion. Pike stepped down as the President and is out on bond awaiting trial.  The police did everything they could to warn Twin Peaks management of the dangers of holding more biker events, due to the mounting violence between clubs. But, they disregarded warnings and went on as usual. One former Twin Peaks waitress has spoken out and witnessed Police telling management of the dangers. Police had no authority to shut the Twin Peaks down and had to standby with forces outside the event. Their hands were tied and their fears came true. These criminal bikers even opened fire at the police during the shootout and it should be no surprise that several criminal bikers were likely shot & killed by police. However, the ballistic reports have not yet been released. In fact, Bandido MC member Jake Carrizal has publicly stated on a CNN special that it appears police shot a man that was clearly going to shoot him. Carrizal is likely alive, because of police protection and their swift action. A simple thank you to the police would be nice for saving his life.  We will have to wait for ballistic reports to confirm this.  Carrizal was directly involved in the start of this brawl and can be seen on video surveillance. Former Bandidos National President Jeff Pike is ignorant enough to say that all would have been fine had one uniformed police officer been inside the restaurant walking around. These criminal bikers knew SWAT and police were all around the restaurant and still opened fire on each other. Clearly a uniformed officer would have stopped nothing and put that officer in great danger. The juvenile thinking of these criminal bikers speaks volumes. Of course, there are those bikers arrested complaining. Many complain and shift blame as usual. Honestly, I don't know the merits of each case nor the details of each, nor does anyone else except those involved with the actual investigation. I will say that if you are going be a criminal biker, attend events with rival 1%er clubs clearly present, involve yourself with the COC, or just hang with known criminal bikers then you are putting yourself at risk of being in the middle of fights & the possibility of being criminally investigated. Sometimes common sense needs to be used. This is just the start and you'll have to listen in to this two part podcast series to get all the facts and details.

LAB-109-When Should You Replace Your Motorcycle Helmet? Is There a Standard?

Official Website: http://www.lawabidingbiker.com Podcast-We received a computer voicemail from David Schwarz of Israel and that spurred this very podcast episode. David wondered if there is a standard or a specific time frame on when we should be replacing our motorcycle helmets. So, we busted our butts like usual for you Bikaholics out there and researched this very topic.  We came up with some surprising information & best practices for you. As usual, you'll really need to listen in to this podcast episode to get all the specific details. We also talked about several other things, but this was the main topic.   A Must Listen to Podcast Episode & Article on Motorcycle Helmet Ratings and Testing: (Get in the know)   LAB Episode #94-Motorcycle Helmet Ratings | DOT, ECE, SNELL-What does it mean for bikers?   Do as you like for your personal safety or course, but we believe that our information here is cutting through all the smoke and mirrors for you. Certainly helmet manufacturers would like you to replace your helmet often, as it is a huge industry.   Sponsor for this Episode: (Biker Supporters!)   Bikebiker Planet Community (Browse for Free)   Use our Special Law Abiding Biker Link Here! There are a ton of myths out there. No, if you drop your helmet you don't need to replace it, within reason. If you drop it from an 8 story building, then it has endured a significant impact, so by all means replace it. If you simply drop it out of your hand or off your bike, then be realistic, the helmet is fine. It may have a scratch, but that is cosmetic. If you are involved in a motorcycle collision and you actually impact the helmet with some force, then certainly replace it.   You should treat your helmet with some respect and care for it properly, which will ultimately extend its life. This includes storing it in a cool dry place. Don't leave it out for long periods baking in the direct sunlight.  Keep your helmet away from petroleum-based products such as fuel, cleaners, and paint. If you notice the helmet getting loose in fitment, some of the lining is coming out, or it leaves little black flakes in your hair, then it’s time to replace it. I know, this all seems to be common sense and it is.   A general rule is that a motorcycle helmet will last for about five years with regular usage. The glues, resins and other materials used in the making of the helmet can lose their effectiveness and also deteriorate the lining.  Another reason to replace your helmet every five years is that helmet technology is always advancing and a new helmet is going to offer more protection.   Here is from the Snell Foundation website, which is very reputable when it comes to motorcycle helmet safety standards.   The five-year replacement recommendation is based on a consensus by both helmet manufacturers and the Snell Foundation. Glues, resins and other materials used in helmet production can affect liner materials. Hair oils, body fluids and cosmetics, as well as normal "wear and tear" all contribute to helmet degradation. Petroleum based products present in cleaners, paints, fuels and other commonly encountered materials may also degrade materials used in many helmets possibly degrading performance. Additionally, experience indicates there will be a noticeable improvement in the protective characteristic of helmets over a five-year period due to advances in materials, designs, production methods and the standards. Thus, the recommendation for five-year helmet replacement is a judgment call stemming from a prudent safety philosophy.   At the end of the day, you really just need to ask yourself one question. Is my helmet in good shape and will I trust it to protect my head should I become involved in a motorcycle collision? After all, it's your head.............   New Law Abiding Biker Video Release!   Remove, Install, Repair Harley Starter & Starter Clutch   New Patrons:   Tim Valdez of Arvada, CO Geoffrey Allen of Lyndeborough, NH Eli Robles of San Antonio, TX Ralph Keuhel of Manchester, MISSOURI Al Long of Centennial, Colorado John Schroeder of DePere, Wisconson Patreon Biker Motorcycle Podcast   If you appreciate the content we put out and want to make sure it keeps on coming your way then become a Patron too!

I would have never tackled this project without your video. Only difference is I wasn't confident enough to do it without covering the tank and front fender. I didn't have a dental tool to put the ground wire in the connector but used a paper clip that worked fine after several tries.. I also used velcro to attach the plug to the tank so it would be easier to remove if necessary.   The dealer I bought the connector from wanted 2 hours labor to install. That seemed a little much and they described it as a big job. That was fine until they seemed unsure answering my questions. I left there feeling like they were going to be experimenting on my bike. I had to find a better way. Went home and started poking around on Youtube and found your channel.   Ended up taking me a couple of hours taking my time as I had never had the bike apart before.

Official Website: http://www.lawabidingbiker.com Podcast-Hang on as we have another law abiding biker motorcycle club interview for all you Bikaholics.  In this episode, I have the pleasure of speaking with Randy "Jake" Patton, who is one of the founding members and the President of the Immortal Knights Public Safety Motorcycle Club (IKPSMC). Also along for the interview ride is Steve "Pirate" Bills, who is the IKPSMC Sgt. At Arms. The Immortal Knights MC is based out of the Salt Lake City, Utah area. We really break it down from how the Immortal Knights MC came into existence, their struggles, their accomplishments, their ideologies, their beliefs, and just what makes them tick.  We dive further into what it may take to become a member of their club and how to get in touch if you are interested.   All law abiding biker clubs should be jumping on this platform and setting up a simple podcast interview, so we can all learn from each other. Clubs that do so get on the exclusive Law Abiding Biker Club Page. And you get a permanent link directly to your very own interview and page. You will always be able to send prospective members or anyone interested in your club directly to your episode! Get a hold of us on our Contact Page Now and schedule your interview.   biker planet logo   The following is approved by Immortal Knights IKPSMC President Randy "Jake" Patton: On December 2nd 2011 I made the trek north. At this meeting were Jetwash, Mickey, Minnie, Bubba and Dory. As I explained why I made the decision to leave our old club behind, I could see the discontent rise in their eyes. It was then that I pitched my idea of a club that would be what I had thought our former club was supposed to be.  Not only did they find the idea of starting a new club intriguing, each one of them removed their patches and decided to help me form our new club.  I had the idea of using "IK" in the name of our fledgling club. I wanted the name "knights" as part of the club. It took us a while, but Mickey came up with the word "immortal" for the first part of our name. We named our club the Immortal Knights Public Safety Motorcycle Club. The Phoenix was chosen as our back patch centerpiece. We chose that as we saw ourselves rising from the ashes of a crumbling mess and moving onward from that in a rebirth of something new. The reasoning behind using the letters I & K are, "I" is the ninth letter of the alphabet and "K" is the eleventh. Together they represent 911. The 911 has a double meaning in our club. It represents September 11th when the United States was attacked, and the emergency number that is called when the public is in need of a first responder. It was decided that the sign of our clubs founders would be the infinity symbol. The infinity would represent the original eight members of the Immortal Knights as well as keeping the memories of the fallen first responders alive. When we started this club, we thought about how we wanted to approach our bylaws. We wrote them with a national flavor but knew that we did not want to grow too fast. After the experiences from our former life, we saw firsthand what fast growth can do to an organization. So, we decided to take it slow. If that means we never grow out of the state of Utah, so be it. With that being said, we are not afraid of moving out of our home state, but will do it at our own pace. Our First Responders Tribute Ride is a cornerstone of the club. Each year we select a different first responder organization to raise money for. We beat the pavement and pound on doors working towards the end goal, which is the ride. We gather as many bikers as we can and ride through the local mountains. At the end of the ride we have some good food, raffle off some of the items that have been donated, and we also have an auction for some of the bigger items. Every penny we raise through these efforts is then given to the organization we ride for.   New Patrons: Dan Walters of Felton, CA Terrence Lewis Shelton Dawkins Scott Brummer of East Bernard, TX Martin Roberts of Tonbridge, Kent - Great Britain Lou Dolente of Havertown, PA If you appreciate the content we put out and want to make sure it keeps on coming your way then become a Patron too!

LAB-103-Harley Boom!™ Box Wireless Bluetooth Pairing Headset Hacks-The Facts-Special Patron Guest Darwin Cheng

Law Abiding Biker | Street Biker Motorcycle Podcast

Official Website: http://www.lawabidingbiker.com Podcast-In this episode we talk about the inability of the Harley Boom!™ Box Infotainment system to pair "directly" with a wireless Bluetooth motorcycle headset.  We speak the truth based upon facts, research, & testing that was done. We discussed all of this via a Live Blab session. On the mics with me were Rick Kane of Law Abiding Biker™ and Community Patron Member Darwin Cheng of California.  These are the kind of things that go in the forums in the Private Patron Only Facebook Group!  Darwin conducted his own testing and on his own came up with an affordable workaround for "limited" connectivity from the Boom Box to his Sena Bluetooth headset. He shared all the information with us some time back and we finally got around to putting it together into a podcast and video. Darwin himself will tell you that his setup is a workaround and a hack of sorts. He can get some functionality, such as pushing the Boom Box audio to his Sena headset, but he cannot give voice commands back to the Boom Box, something only a wired headset can do at this time. Harman Kardon, the maker of the Boom Box system for Harley-Davidson, never intended it to work with wireless Bluetooth headsets. They only created it with a hands-free profile (HFP) to work wirelessly with things like smartphones and MP3 players.  It was not created with a headset profile (HSP) to work with wireless Bluetooth headsets and those are the facts. Related Video & Article: Is there a Bluetooth headset that pairs "directly" with the Boom Box Infotainment System? Truth or Fiction? We dive in deep and discuss all aspects of this subject, so you'll have to listen in. We break down exactly what items are needed to get a Sena Bluetooth motorcycle headset to partially work with the Boom Box System. Darwin shares exactly how he transfers between listening to audio from the Boom Box system to transitioning to receiving and making phone calls. He shares inside tips and tricks if this is something you want to do. Understand, the Boom Box was specifically designed to work with a wired headset only. That really doesn’t bother us here, because the good quality wired headsets work great and there are no headaches that go along with Bluetooth syncing. It is just one simple wire that plugs into your 7 pin communications port anyways, so there is no hassle. Use our Special Law Abiding Biker Link Here!  At the end of this episode we announce a brand new product we are coming out with called the Biker Boom Headset. It is a fully functional motorcycle headset with microphone that fully integrates with the Boom Box Infotainment System. And it is better quality and half the price of the Harley brand headset. Scroll down for further information and availability exclusively in the Law Abiding Biker Store! If a future Bluetooth headset that “directly” pairs with the Harley Boom Box becomes available we will certainly let you know. I wouldn't hold your breath though. _________________________________________________ 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/

LAB-102-Harley Compensator Noise From Primary-New Chain Tensioner AND Torque Cones-Do they work? Plus more!

Law Abiding Biker | Street Biker Motorcycle Podcast

Official Website: http://www.lawabidingbiker.com Podcast-In this episode we start out with a post from a Patron member of Law Abiding Biker private Facebook Group. That private Facebook Group is growing quickly and it is all about bikers helping bikers. The only way to get in is to become a Patron Member of the show. NEW FREE VIDEO-Touch up paint chip or scratch on Harley Davidson Patron member Carl Lingelbach posted a question about motorcycle torque cones for exhaust headers and their effectiveness. He put true dual exhaust on his Harley and now doesn't have enough back pressure and his bike is not performing optimally.  Luckily, I had mechanical advisor Oscar on the microphone and he answered this very question. At the end of the day, he's not a big fan and doesn't think that torque cones are all that effective. There are much better options for performance out there like getting other exhaust aside from true dual pipes. You'll just have to listen to get all the details.   Next we cover an email from Nora Dalton and she asks: I have a 2014 FLHTK with a compensator noise.  I'm talking with HOG members with the same compensator noise can you tell us what is going on with the Harley Davidson compensator problem?  Our Original Response: Listen and you might also hear the chain whirring around in the primary. Pull the primary cover off & replace the OEM Primary Chain Auto Adjuster with a new Auto Tensioner. A few have experienced that the auto tensioner was bad or needed to be quickly adjusted.  What your hearing could be a primary chain with slack in it. So as the bike idles you hear the chain whirring or rubbing against the inside of primary. Then the compensator eventually gets a slack slap (knock). Of course we discuss this in more length, so listen in. Next we cover a voicemail we received from Martin Royal: Martin is wondering if he can use the Vance & Hines Fuelpak 3 (FP3) motorcycle fuel injection tuner (EFI) with his stock Harley head pipes if he removes the catalytic converters (cats). He related information from Vance & Hines that the stock O2 sensors are too close on the stock Harley head pipes and he will get cross-talk of some sort & that the auto tune function could then not be used.   Note: Make certain you check your local, State, & Federal laws before removing catalytic converters from motorcycle exhaust pipes. Oscar and I give our personal opinion and our real world experience on this matter. Quite a few of us are using the Vance & Hines Fuelpak 3 on our current Harleys in just the manner Martin describes in his voicemail and have absolutely no problem with the functionality of the FP3 and our bikes are running great! And yes, we run the auto tune function on the FP3 and it works great! Certainly you could buy Vance and Hines head pipes or another manufacturer if you choose and they don't have catalytic converters and the O2 sensors are in a bit different location. Next we cover and email from Peter Ried Fort Hood, TX: (stationed there) I have been a member of your youtube channel and facebook page for Law Abiding Biker. After watching your videos and doing my own research I purchased my First Harley today. I haven't ridden a bike in years and love my 2014 Street Glide. Just wanted you to know that your information and videos is what put me back on a bike. I am stationed at Fort Hood. I at cant wait for more information on your forums. Keep up the great work Next we cover and email from Rory Seldon of Walnut, CA: Just wanted to drop a note and say that I tried to install the Hogtunes without your video and wasted several hours.  Once I purchased the video, installation was a breeze.  Great job and well worth the money!!!!   Next we cover and email from Jon Philbrick: Thanks for the bundles of information you have passed on throughout the year. You are appreciated and looked to as a source of information. I know it takes more time than I think I could expend to put together your programs for us bikers (and other interested parties), but there are those among us that acknowledge your extra effort, and all useful. So as this year comes to an end and another one is coming face to face with us, I wish you and yours a most Merry Christmas and a great new year. May you be in health and continue on with your enthusiasm...and great informative emails/videos.

We actually have 117 episodes out, because we covered several Sons of Anarachy seasons, but those episodes were not officially numbered.   We were live on Blab and had a blast with community members jumping in and grabbing a Blab seat when we could (call in). We had quite a few of our beloved Patrons join and say hi! We even had numerous giveaways of items from the Official Law Abiding Biker Store, such as Biker Gripper cell phone motorcycle mounts & support shirts!

With a ton of work, dedication, and support from the audience we are proud to now be the#1 listened to motorcycle podcast!   With the help of the Law Abiding Biker crew and audience participation, we have built this into a very large & continually growing worldwide biker/motorcycle community. That's right, we are the motorcycling majority and the 99%ers and we now have a very loud voice that many in the motorcycle industry are taking notice of! It's what we call a Biker Revolution!   We have also worked very hard to build our YouTube channel and put out tons of free content. As of this time we have nearly 3 million views and that number is growing rapidly! We were able to move into a larger area and have a much more professional broadcast studio and equipment. Those that know how much we provide free are more than willing to purchase some of our popular for purchase videos & we continue to grow that library of videos too!   We are also proud to have started the Official Law Abiding Biker Store and continue to bring new products to it for the motorcycle community. We want to provide the best possible experience for bikers, unlike so many other online motorcycle stores that only try to take advantage. We are transparent and we want bikers to truly know who is behind the store.   We have become a real team & of course, brothers.  We are working hard behind the scenes here at Law Abiding Biker™ and we trust that will propel us into the future.

And so, it becomes a delicate balance.  We all know how limited space can be when traveling on a motorcycle. That is also one of the reasons we love it so much. Pack what you can fit on your bike and ride into the sunset! Free your mind and soul!   This episode is spawned from an internet voicemail we received from audience member David Schwartz from Isreal. He is planning a long motorcycle ride here in the United States very soon and wanted to know what to pack. He wanted our thoughts, experience, and insight into packing for motorcycle trips and that's exactly what we give everyone in this podcast episode.   David Schwartz of Israel also mentioned how pleased he was with our Harley oil change and maintenance video. He has saved a ton of money doing his own oil changes and routine maintenance.   Harley Routine Maintenance & Oil Change Tutorial Video We dive deep into this topic and it will make you think for sure. You might even refine what you pack yourself. This episode was also a live broadcast and we had much input via audience participation over on our Live Page.

Official Website: http://www.lawabidingbiker.com Podcast-In no way does Law Abiding Biker™ Podcast & Media promote or support activities by any outlaw criminal motorcycle gangs (OMG's). We are simply reporting on the recent one hour CNN special called "Inside the Mongols Nation", which was hosted by Lisa Ling. We had numerous emails requesting we cover the story and put truth and perspective to it. We listened to our audience and recorded this podcast episode for that reason.   We take a fair and balanced approach & have much insight and perspective into what is fact and what is fiction based on our experiences. There were many facts that were reported in the CNN special and also many things that make little or no sense. To be fair to Lisa Ling, she has no experience with OMG's and that makes it much harder to decipher the truths.   biker planet logoSponsor for this Episode: (Biker Supporters!)   Biker Planet Community (Browse for Free)   Use our Special Law Abiding Biker Link Here! Make note that we have never reported that every single biker in every criminal outlaw motorcycle gang is committing daily criminal acts. That would make us like them to assume and place broad stereo types. However, it is fact based on history and evidence that there are factions within these outlaw 1%er clubs that are committing and continue to commit criminal acts to include murder, assault, extortion, racketeering, robbery, & drug trafficking just to name a few. And it is tolerated within the clubs and many look the other way.   Organized motorcycle gangs are becoming much more astute when it comes to the Racketeering Influenced and Corrupt Organization Act (RICO). You'll here it when criminal indictments are handed down on individual outlaw club members. Leaders in these biker gangs will say such things as.......that may have occurred, but the club did not know about it. RICO allows the Federal Government to go after entire criminal organizations such as outlaw biker gangs to dismantle them.   It is a cat and mouse game and by keeping things loose in the club and letting smaller groups conduct criminal acts it does not involve the "organization" as a whole, thus helping avoid RICO prosecution. Attorneys for these biker gangs have trained leaders on what to say and how to help avoid RICO.   Lisa Ling believes she had "exclusive" & "unprecedented" access to the Mongols for this special, but we find out quickly that is not the case. In fact, she was not allowed in a closed-door meeting and that is certainly not full access and leaves much to be speculated on. It is humorous at best when she tries to talk with club members, who just chuckle and say nothing of importance.   The Mongols MC National President Dave Santillan, who also goes by Lil' Dave, seems to have organized this public relations attempt. Even he doesn't answer many of Ling's questions during the few times she asks serious questions backed by evidence. He steers away from them, becomes very uncomfortable, and his body language speaks for itself.   Many criminal outlaw biker gangs have been manipulating main stream media for many years now and this is nothing new. It is a public relations move that Dave Santillan is now attempting.  Outlaw clubs like this use main stream media to have them see what they want them to see in hopes of bettering their overall image to the general public. It's actually a really brilliant move and does work for them many times. I'm not surprised that Santillan sought a left wing liberal media outlet like CNN, because Fox News certainly would not have been manipulated like this.   Lisa Ling and CNN were clearly not given access to complete a true and full story of the Mongols, but I give Ling credit for trying. She did a good job with the limited information she was allowed to gather and see. Even she says she can only draw conclusions on what she was "allowed to see" by the Mongols MC.   Although we think that it was a good attempt at manipulating the media, in the end it appears to be a failure. Based on Santillan's and other club members lack of responses and evasiveness to valid questions, it leaves the public even more suspicious in our opinion.   New Free Tutorial Video:   Kuryakyn Phase 7 LED Comparison and Install New Patrons:   Chris Watson of Tampa, FL Don Malcolm of Auckland New Zealand Jeffrey Cagle of pheonix, AZ Patreon Biker Motorcycle Podcast   If you appreciate the content we put out and want to make sure it keeps on coming your way then become a Patron too!
