Schedules are Hard

I think I just work and go home now. Every few days work is closed, but nothing else is open. Then I think maybe another week starts, or maybe its a different month or year. I'm not real sure...

I know it's work to keep up with youTube in your busy life, so I want you to know that I, as one of many, really enjoy your channel and I try to buy through your links when I buy moto stuff. You're a good guy with his heart in the right place. Thanks for all your efforts!
Dude, Good thing you are still working... Keeping people riding during these times is definitely "Essential". Stay safe!
Thanks for the video John. De-stress and don't worry about getting anything out on 'schedule'.
Thank you sir!! We are looking forward to talking with you tonight. It’s going to be a fun time for sure!!
I'm glad to see Clay is doing better, I know he's wanting to ride again, I've been following him, he's a good dude 💯, and yeah schedules are kinda tough with the way things are, ride safe and stay healthy brother 💯, OZ
Strange times for sure John! Hope you keep the faith and endure to the end! Best Always, jp
Thanks for the link to Clay. He needs all the encouragement he can get.
Thanks & keep up the good work!
I never been mentally or financially stable so am good just another day for me 😆
Good video thanks for sharing keep up the good work and you and your family stay safe and healthy
THANK YOU for the shoutout for Five Dirty Bikers!! We can’t wait to chat with you tonight. Thanks for taking the time. Glad to hear an update on Clay as well. People have been asking about him.
take care of fam, take care of yourself, and when you have the time you can help take care of us too with some vids.. if not well you have lots to go through and or rewatch.. hope you keep up with all the crazy yourself. cheers.
Hi John, Glad you are still working. I’ve worked for the same company for 29 years and we had a mass layoff thanks to the COVID-19 virus. Still waiting on unemployment to kick in. Up side to this is i have been able to get a lot done around the house. Keep up the good work!
Five Dirty Bikers is great, Been in their community for quite some time. Awesome people.
Thanks John, it’s a strange world that we all have to cope with eh? Your videos bring much needed smiles!!!
Thanks for the bump, John! Looking forward to chatting with you this evening!🤟🏻
Great channel! I'm binge watching all videos motorcycle while in Iraq during this COVID thing and found your channel; can't wait to get home and ride again. Keep it up and I appreciate everything I've learned about my Harley from you.
Glad you and your family are well, it will all straighten out sooner or later. Just keep moving forward take care of you and yours, we will watch your videos whenever you release them. Be safe

Great news on Clay, that man is a warrior I watched the video. Can't wait to hear you on The Five Dirty Bikers :)
I listen to FDB. Glad you’re going on the show.
Your doin great brother!! Keep the vids coming!!!
Hi, love the videos, they're helping during this lockdown. Over here in the UK we've got restricted travel, so can only ride to get essential supplies & are allowed out once a day for some exercise, so we need as much entertainment as we can get, thanks!
Go for a ride! I got out across the mountain yesterday, seen quite a few fellow riders out enjoying themselves while social distancing
Thanks for the video John! Things will get better. That being said, let’s brace ourselves for things staying the way they are… Life may be very different from here out. Holla!!
Hey! 5DB! Those guys are all pretty great. I was lucky to get to spend a weekend camping and riding with them at MMM last year.
Really you close to Fort Benning cool . Doing good me and wife both working. Still riding some staying closer to home.
Take your time brother, we’re not going anywhere. Same as you 😂
👍Thanks John
John, I subscribed to Clay’s Channel last week I think. I saw a link on your video. I did see his update video. He’s got a long road ahead of him. Upload when you can I always watch for certain uploads and your channel is one.
Another great video, I’m retired now and still find it hard to get my videos done. Keep the videos coming
Hope Travis is doing well
I wish I could get a Schedule lol I crunched 4 videos plus editing in 3 days before heading to daytona and that was rough....One a week can sometimes be a challenge with everything going on. Subd To Clays Channel. Thats awesome hes doing that...love seeing new channels in our industry. Be safe!
Hang on in there John. Anything you put out is very much appreciated but don’t worry if you can’t. We will on be here still on the other side. Here in the UK we have been on lockdown since 23rd March and it’s just been extended for 3 more weeks. No work and no riding!! Loads of jobs need doing around the house though.
I still enjoy your 📹 my friend. Do what you can when you can. Be safe.
Nice video!!! 💯 Hey John, Do you have a video on how to take the battery out of your Heritage 114? I have one myself and need help...🙋♂️🤷♂️
I will be more mentally stable when I will ride my bike on Canadian roads . 🙏🇨🇦 Take care.
At least all of you Lower 48ers are riding and have been riding for some time. There is still 3 feet of ❄️ on the ground. However, that’s changing by the minute. We’ve officially entered breakup, the big meltdown has begun. It was almost 60F here in North Pole, Alaska today. Before you know it my wife and I will be out riding and I can’t wait. We paid off the Road King this winter so this will be our first ride with the bike officially being ours. I’m am so looking forward to that first ride. I’m hoping by May 1st! Be safe everyone! Cheers ! 🎄🎅🏻🇺🇸
I tried doing the schedule thing once and it didn’t work out for me. We appreciate you doing what you can.
Shi**, this sure is a messin me up😣... so just to getcha sorted John ma boy, I reckon i've figured it out for ya with those weekdays... Thisday Oneday Someday Anotherday Thatday Anyday Whatday. All other days are cancelled until further notice. Thx for your incredibly interesting and informative blog...😁 see ya on the other side dude... coz this is damm right doin my head in and I wanna go ride😕
Good videos how do you like the roadster?
I can only imagine how difficult it must be being a tech right now at a Harley shop. Spring is here and people are stuck at home with nothing to do but ride. Maybe for the time being the owners need to reconsider the business hours until things calm down at the dealership. I dont know maybe some technicians would agree or not. Stay safe.
Well that was a lot! I love the ending...awkward pause...duces! 😂 I hope you guys are okay financially. When I hear the wife is not working I cringe. One day at a time, one glimmer of hope at a time that this crap will go away so things can get back to manageable, I don’t dare say, back to normal. ✌🏻
Hi John, love your content! Hello from India and India HOG! We do not have all the Harley models here, but the highest sold are Street750, which I own too. Haven't seen any in your videos..

Jupiter, that’s kinda by design. The MoCo knew that folks in Asia love them some HD, but we’re virtually unattainable because of the price. The street was essentially built for your market. They aren’t big sellers here because we do have every model, and at a closer to affordable price. I really should do a video, though!

@@barrybambmessagedeletedbyy7467 Street750 is my 4th Harley, the Harley I bought from my own pocket. The one I could afford. I owned the Iron883, FatBob and SuperGlide Custom before this. About they suck or not, well, we have got riders who have completed 1 lakh kms(100,000 kilometres) on it. But yes, they have their fair share of problems, mine does too. But very nimble and light and the cheapest Harley Davidson out there.

I think Canada’s stay at home order is more strict than ours, too. I’ve seen some pretty nasty comments from Canadians toward the American motovloggers for being out on the roads. Which is weird because it’s obviously different countries and rules I also thought Canadians were supposed to be overly nice! Seriously, though, I would rather be by appointment, we still have a lot of traffic, which seems a bit irresponsible in a time of social distancing.

John Maxwell we have had very clear messages from our Prime Minister about the importance of all of us across the country doing the same thing so that this thing can be contained with the least amount of deaths and infection our provincial primer said all of them are in conference calls together with the prime minister to work together with one message I think that might be why you see frustration from Canadian Moto vloggers no unnecessary travel is the message we are being given
John, I have been thinking about this a while now. I got a 2020 FLDE, the black. I think it looks pretty good with the stock bars but I wanted to maybe go for the fat chizeled bars that they have on harley site. I think it looks good but I'm 5'11" and my arm span isn't like amazing long or anything just average. I wanted to really get something under shoulder so I'm not getting fatigued. I'm 35 and I don't do rides longer than a few hours usually. Any thoughts. I figured I'd ask since you got the heritage and know more than I.
Hey man! Love the channel, moving very close to your area (well, closer than I am now) but I have a question about my grips, I bought the get a grip ones from harley, but the logos on the grips are not even, is there a way to fix that? They are on a cable throttle. If not easy to explain, I can just ride the bike over in a month or so and meet up with you for a break or lunch.
Yes Sir 😆🤣😂 Schedules are All Jacked Up..
Stay safe brutha
Hey John Love your vids. I have a ?? I am changing my regulator and there is what looks to be Oil in the connection. Why is this and is there more wrong then i can see ??? Thanks

Hi John. I own a Street 750 2017ABS, 30k kms run. My swing Arm Bearings spoilt(which Harley says doesn't usually happen) and it screwed my belt, sprocket, all bearings in the rear end and my ABS module spoilt, it was going on n off and also wore off my rear tyre in 5k kms. Why does this happen?
Hey man, Kyle here driving from MS to Savannah and up home to Annapolis Maryland. Wanted to stop at Chattahoochee HD to say Hi! You guys open on Sunday?
Crazy days for sure. I'm layed off, but thankfully my state doesn't have a stay at home order, so I can ride and keep my sanity. Sadly, one of my local H-D dealerships, where I got my FXDWG, is closing permanently(Great River Road H-D in Quincy,IL). Later bro.

Hey John just a random question about your GT Air-2 and the Sena SRL2. Do you use it to communicate with other riders much and can you here them at around 60mph. Been lots of negative about there speakers and looking at the GT Air2 so just wondering what they are like for communicating bike to bike. Thanks Stay safe.
Schedules are tough for sure and I’m slowly losing my mind. Hahaha. Stay safe man and hopefully this all passes soon and we can go tear up some roads again soon. 👍
Hey buddy! I'm in the market for some motorcycle gloves - I was thinkin of going with a Harley pair, but I'm skeptical as Harley's rebranded stuff hasn't been of the awesomest quality recently. I notice you're running Harley gloves, has your experience been good with those?
John I have been a long time subscriber of your vidieos and have learned a lot. The question I have for you is about the rurok atlas 2 you reviewed previously. I where a shoei neotek 2 and was thinking of trying the rurok because it being lighter but, I noticed you dont wear the rurok since initial view. Just wondering if there is a reason. Thanks Again and we will get through these tough times!

I wear the Ruroc every day, actually. I mentioned it in the review that I didn't want to put a camera over those cool graphics. I also kind of just wanted to have a helmet that didn't have a bunch of stuff on it! I wear the Ruroc at work (it stays there), and still use the Shoei for motovlogs. I do actually have a "core" model from Ruroc in route. It's all black with no graphics, and I'll be putting a camera on that. The Atlas flows so much air, it's going to be great for summer down here in GA!
What bike are you riding? Not used to the different set up. And what is that clear thing you have to look through?
Mr.Maxwell, I have a 2020 Tri Glide. It was delivered Saturday. I’ve had no one go over the bike with me. I h ave two SAE cables I. The bike. One is sticking out from under the fron part of the seat on the left side of the bike. The other is below the side cover on the left side. Witch is for the charging the battery? I assume it’s the one under the left cover. If it is what is the other cable for?

John, Take a breather. I like your channel and subscribed because I like the Harley tech and aftermarket info you offered. The more I listen to you though it is sounding more like you are about to give the Harley tech and you job up. I hope I’m wrong. You have to do what’s right for you and yours, but recently your videos have taken a dark, and frustrated sounding turn. The voice is John Maxwell. The tempo and subject matters are not what we your fans are used to from you.

John, try to relax. I know you’re going through a lot of stressful things right now and it’s making it hard for you and your family. You’re a young guy and you can keep young by just taking this stress and pushing away. Take a long bike ride or play in the park with your kids. Take it from a guy who has been through a lot of stressful things in his life, I lived in a house with two guys that were younger than me and they both and looked older than me. If you can do that you’re way ahead of the game. Yes stress is tough, but you can be tougher.
