This channel is focused performing self maintenance to keep your bike in good running condition for riding. Working on your bike will instill a sense of personal pride, satisfaction, and save a lot of money that can be used for those long road trips you might be planning. I also cover some videos on how to add custom parts to give your bike a personal touch without having to take it to the dealership.
Along with the maintenance I include riding videos of some events and trips we embark upon which depicts the "Ride it" portion of the channel name.

Riding The Three Twisted Sisters
Riding the Three Twisted Sisters in Leakey, TX is a must for any motorcyclist. The route covers Ranch Roads 335, 336, and 337. The roads wind, twist, rise, and fall for 100 miles through the scenic Texas Hill Country. Riding it in the spring adds to the experience with the native flowers in full bloom.

This nostalgic past ride video is quite a bit different from the others. We used to have a skills day once a month with our local HOG Chapter. Doing these courses will develop your riding skills and help you to learn your bike. Now there is a local group that puts these ride layouts together that I will occasionally attend to keep sharp on slow speed control. Website: rideitwrenchit.com/ Facebo...

Most of them were recorded on a GoPro 2 which was at the time the top-of-the-line GoPro so the quality of the video is a bit behind. Hope you enjoy them!

Kemi Moto Saddlebag Organizers are a great way to keep items organized and keep them from bouncing around in your saddlebag. I was very happy with the quality of the item and after a 3100-mile road trip where I was able to put them through a solid test, I would highly recommend them.

My seat didn't come with instructions for the bracket install. This video was perfect. Thanks!
So far, I've dropped the straight part into the battery well. Wish me luck.
Thanks!!
Great job , i think 12 inch look great for Street Glide
Wow, Sir, you are a beast. I am definitely letting someone doing that. I got the parts here but after seeing you doing that, there is no way I can replicate that. Hats off to you. Thank you so very much.
I dropped the nut. Lol. Great video. Thank you.
Thanks brother
That is awesome, very good tip and saved me a bunch of time. Thank You
Very good detailed install 👍
You make it look so easy 😂!
Thank you.
Thanks for your review. I used the coupon code and saved $17.50 on the 9” touring windshield. I have a 2017 Ultra Limited that came used with a 8” - 9” Klock Werks that IMO has terrible visibility. Glad I came across your review because like you I never heard of Freedom shields before.
Do you need brake and clutch cable extension for 12in hammerheads on a 2021 road glide special ? Or can I use the stock cables ?
Ps freedom used to use notches. Mine has notches like HD standard.
How tall are you? I recently purchased a 03 elctra glide and the gentleman had a 7" freedom non touring on the bike. I'm 6'0 wearing a full-face helmet. I noticed after long rides my necks sore, granted I have a herniated c6. I'm wondering if it's the right height.
By far, one of the best DIY videos I have seen to do handlebars. You've convinced me to do my own. Thank you. Keep 'em coming.
In the Twist Grip sensor harness, what is the two wire cable. Black/white wire assembly.
No...not leekie....Leakey pronounced "Lakie"...
Question: Is yours the Dark Tint? Great Review!! Helped me make the decision to go Freedom.
If you ride and you’re in Texas, this is a must ride. I enjoyed your video. Thanks for posting it! 👍🏻
Loved this ride when I did it! Went on a Tuesday and had the whole route pretty much to myself. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks for the ride, good to see you again
West Texas highway speed limit is 80 and 90 mph. What is the roads you are on posted speed limits???
US83 going to Leakey was 75.
I have been using your video to put 12 bars on a Tri Glide. Basically the same.
Awesome video. I had more trouble getting the left control off the handle bars. I could not get the top button off the switch housing. Actually a relatively easy job
Great Video, thx from Germany 👍🏻💪🏻
Do you recommend bushings for the newer bikes?
Couple things….great video. But never use an impact with Torx fasteners. You’ll learn after you do enough of them. Also, use a spray bottle with Dawn water mixed on the wire harnesses. A lot easier pulling/pushing through the bars.
Awesome and quick 👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks for the detailed informative video, you have earned my subscription today.
I noticed you did remove the ignition switch. Is it not in the way of anything?
I like mine taller than me. No different than a car windshield. I like looking through it. I’ve tried EVERY configuration you can think of and if it’s not above me looking through it I get severe buffeting
I wish the people reviewing these would tell us how tall they are for a reference point.
I used PAM
Thank you!
Great review, sir! What's your height and which saddle are you using?
Just finished swaping handlebars on my 2023 street glide, everything works lights,horn,ignition but start button is not,bike won't start. Any suggestions?
I have a Freedom Windshield ordered. I am returning the Klock Werks. Distorted vision and helmet buffeting. Hands and arms get a lot of wind also.
and... how to wash the bike, and getting rid of dust and any sand-particles accumulating underneath such cover?
what a headache of an installtion
Man this is a great vid, getting ready to put the same bars on my 22 Tri Glide, will be interesting to see the wiring/"under the hood" differences if any?
Good video, good audio, good instructions. 👍
Nice job. Saddleman makes a good product.I recently bought the saddlebag liner and struggled to get it to fit. I let it sit out in the sun for a few hours and it helped some. Also it would be nice if you could color match the lid cover.
My service guy forgot to do this. Thanks for a quick and clear solution!
Looks like a pain in the azz. Bit you saved a ton of money in labor
Best video i saw for installing new handlebars! Thank you so much for sharing it with us!
Just came across your page some great videos, on the 2015 Street Glide you put 10" apes on without additional cabling etc, would it work for 12" bars on a 2014 Street Glide cable wise, any help appreciated.
What style of aftermarket mirror did you go with?
NEVER USE WELDED HANDLEBARS!
Can you tell me what model of bars those are? Also this should be identical for a 2022 Electraglide standard?
