The police in Sturgis are very serious about full stops. My in-laws live on Douglas street and we sit on the porch and watch them pull folks over all the time when turning from Nellie st to Douglas. When turning left on to Nellie from Douglas, no stop required, but when turning right onto Douglas, there is a stop sign. If you do get pulled over, treat the officer with the utmost respect and you might get a warning. What they are looking for are drunk riders, in which SD has very strict drinking and driving laws, so don’t do it. Be safe out there!
I've been coming to the rally for 21yrs straight now. Pretty much straight up common sense is all that has to be applied!!! Lol. Amazing how far it'll get ya nowadays.
If you stay in Deadwood use the trolley to get around in town last time I was there it was only a $1:00 and you don’t have to worry about parking or riding drunk
So maybe it’s just me but it sounds counterproductive to say no drinking and driving and then also say if your bike is left over night it’s getting towed. I’ve worked in EMS and I’m absolutely against drinking and driving but the bike isn’t going to drive itself to wherever you’re staying.
@@Brian-mp2mv Wrong. Our tow trucks do just fine ALL year round. DUH....The I-90 corridor goes right through here. Nonetheless, the rally is a big revenue bringing bonus. $200+ towing fee plus $200 per day impound fees. Most of these poser sheeple bikers leave here nothing short of dog dick broke. If you want to piss with the big dogs, you gotta get that leg high enough.
@@thedog4499 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Hard pressed. You've obviously never been here. Our jails are full of tough guys, all crying like little girls, once in front of a judge. By the way regardless of who you are, the cops will work you over taze the shit out of you and lock your ass up so quick your head will spin.🤣🤣🤣
I never been to Sturgis but I have been to many other rallies, and for the most part you kinda have to go out your way to get a ticket. The town's just want you to enjoy the event, shop local businesses and not be a problem.
I've been to Sturgis and they generally go after people doing Triple-Digits.......usually RIGHT outside town, trying to catch drunk idiots going to their Camp......other than that, I really don't see many cops there Outside town, they just Don't have the budget, it's mainly to enforce "inner town" type shit.....if you're on back roads or Wyoming, you can pretty much do 140mph all day long.
J&P cycles, thanks so much for sending me a paper catalogue 2 years ago. In spite of the fact that I've got 7 decades under my belt, I've got my nose in it all the time and so very much appreciate your kindness in sending me one way up here in northern Ontario Canada. God bless you all and ride safe.
Oh yeah - FMVSS 108 (Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards) (49 CFR Part 571.108 S7.9.4) allows motorcycle headlight modulation systems all 50 states provided they comply with the standards set forth in this section. Title 49 USC 30103 (b1) (US Codes) prohibits any state from forbidding a system that conforms to FMVSS 108.
A good rule of thumb for headlights for ANY vehicle is: 'on' one hour before sunset and 'off' one hour after sunrise. It's not so much for you to see; it's more for you TO BE SEEN BY OTHERS during that critical time. Stay safe, everyone and have fun!
People who ride a motorcycle without eye protection haven't taken a minute to think about the consequences, when all it takes is a fraction of a second to learn the hard way!
The first time they catch a rock or bug in the eyeball, they will understand the need for eye protection... Eyeballs dont grow back, and they havent figured out how to make new ones yet.. ✌♥️🇺🇸
Shit.....basically 90% of riders are Bombed 24/7........dudes dropping their bikes ALL over the place, LMAO.........only advice is DONT SPEED Right outside town......they Love to set speed traps there, cause they know drunk idiots Can't resist ripping the gas Leaving town and heading to Camp.
Just a quick comment, been living here for 3 years. Watch out for wildlife, dusk and dawn all kinds of animals come out. Some big, some small. Either can do a lot of damage.
NEVER saw any animals at all!!!.......it's all fucking Desert and Open plains.....only fucking animals I saw were Vultures circling, and they looked Pretty fucking bored.
@@94SexyStang you my friend better open your eyes respectful if your not seeing wildlife at night. There's tons of deer, elk wild cats even sheep. The turkeys tree at night, but their out during the day in the ditches!
Also a law to know about Sturgis, there is an open container law in town. Can not have a drink containing alcohol on the streets, so finish your drinks on the bar.
USA - Department of Transportation: FMVSS 108 (Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards) (49 CFR Part 571.108 S7.9.4) allows motorcycle headlight modulation systems in all 50 states provided they comply with the standards set forth in Section S7.9.4. Title 49 USC 30103(b1) (US Codes) prohibits any state from forbidding a system that conforms to FMVSS 108. No State or Local ordinance shall usurp the authority and enforcement of the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards
There are also laws and court decisions which say unconstitutional laws are not laws at all and don't have to be complied with... hope you have lots of money for lawyers if you go that route... cops don't care one way or the other what the law says if they want to write that ticket... they know 99.99% of the people will simply pay the fine and go home.
They are the same as any other time of year in South Dakota. All the states gun laws remain the same. Carrying a firearm on a motorcycle - SDCL 32-20-6.6 states that "No person, other than a law enforcement officer or conservation officer, or any person on the person's own land or land leased by the person, may operate or ride on any motorcycle or off-road vehicle with any firearm in the person's possession unless the firearm is completely unloaded and within a carrying case which encloses the entire firearm. However, this section does not apply to any person who is carrying a pistol and possesses a permit to carry a concealed pistol issued pursuant to chapter 23-7. This section does not apply to any person who holds a permit issued pursuant to § 41-8-37 while engaged in hunting from an off-road vehicle in accordance with the provisions of the permit."
@@jpcycles maybe thats what the statute says but my motorcycle club was jacked up big time last year.Didnt matter if you carried a concealed carry permit from a state recognised by the state of South Dakota.This happened within Sturgis city limits only
Our state went open carry years back. Some people walked around with an open carry just because they could. Anyway, one day a guy goes by on a 70’s era bike with a single barrel shotgun with a sling and he has it around his body and appears to be a 36 inch barrel over his shoulder. I think in the event he was thrown off in a crash he would stick the barrel in the ground and stop. Or impale himself. 😂
Great video! For everyone riding to Sturgis from other states, be aware that other laws may apply, those cops sure are. Don't be easy pickings, don't give them an excuse. Also, we don't $h!t where we eat. You may get away with it the next five riders pay the price. Most folks are glad to see us, let's keep it that way and not give the whiners any legislative or enforcement leverage.
i would like to go to Sturgis before my legs give out on me 100% guessing they are about 60% gone now and would need to get a trike. but trikes cost to much money.
Okay sidecar onto your present motorcycle on you can prolong your riding bikes are expensive and once you've done that to your bike then you are left with a pile of expensive part you'll find that your wife will like riding in the sidecar better than pillion because they can see things besides the back of your helmet they can sleep they can eat they can read most feel more comfortable in the Sidecar
Quick question - I'm thinking about riding up from Arizona, but I'm not into the whole rat race of large crowds. I'm thinking about going the week before the rally. Is there anything going on during the week before the rally?
So, next year if I ride out to Sturgis on my little 125cc Honda Grom and I want to take my .50 Barrett for a little anti-material fun, do I have to have it cased? Or can I just carry it in my scabbard like the way I ride around with it in Chicago?
I've been riding around for 4 years with obnoxiously loud exhaust, and only one bar end mirror. My dad's bike has no turn signals, and a big chrome headlight for a mirror. Cops don't actually care, don't be doing anything dumb and unsafe, and you won't be pulled over.
He missed the MOST IMPORTANT ONE…carry bunch of cash on you. Every TICKET HAS TO BE PAID ON THE SPOT AND NO THEY DONT HIGE CHANGE BACK. If not they take you to holding till someone pays the ticket.
ACTUALLY...you might want to look at South Dakota Codified Laws, Section 32-15-17...specifically the last sentence of it. "No person may use a muffler cut-out on any motor vehicle upon a highway"...this has been, and can be interpreted to mean 'modified exhaust', as all 'mufflers' have baffles, and thus to have a straight-pipe without a baffle would violate this part of the Section (being as the first sentence of the same section says that ALL vehicles must have an exhaust system WITH muffler, in GOOD working order). While Sturgis (city) may not have a more concise law (as many cities do...based on decibels at a given distance...like 85-dB at 50-ft, etc.), they can enforce state laws locally, or state can enforce state laws (local cops OR state police).
@@CplDon63 What i do't understand is this! As a child , my father taught me that it was wrong to be a showoff, but all the Harley riders i see seem to make a virtue of it!
@@MrJimmy1437 in my experience there are two riders out there: the riders that are all about look at me and the riders who just love ther ride The riders that are all about look at me are the people who invest tens of thousands of dollars into a bike they never ride or the kids who think it's cool to do wheelies down the freeway or blast down the road at 95 miles an hour. You know the show offs. Me, I ride a Harley, pretty much stock except for a little engine work and a couple of trinkets to add comfort to the road. I'm not a Harley snob as I know several people are. Kawasaki Suzuki Honda Indian even victories: I have ridden with writers from every brand. But it's not just writers who have to be the look at me crowd as you can notice in any Camaro or Corvette or other car rally..... Granted I do believe that there are more of the look at me crowd amongst Harley Davidson owners than any other brand but not all of us are like that
@@CplDon63 I just don't understand why a person, would buy a Harley that costs, 25,000, that makes 56-66 hp that has an old design push rod engine, that is overweight, vibrates,is not reliable etc when for 15,000 you can buy a Yamaha FJR that makes 148HP, is smooth as silk, very reliable, fast, and handles like a race bike! A friend bought a new Harley last year, and it broke down, at 2,000 miles! I have a Yamaha FJR that has 88,000 miles and nobody has ever seen the engine except the people, who built it! It runs like new and the spark plugs have never been changed!
@@MrJimmy1437 all about what you like brother. I ride a flhtk. I'm comfy, happy and enjoy the ride, the wife had actually fallen asleep on the back seat. I rode an Electra glide for work for years and it never let me down. I got friends who ride Yamaha, Honda , Indian, Suzuki and even a victory..... nothing more than what makes you happy........ two wheels, open road, no destination..........

They clean the streets with fire hoses and street sweepers. Bikes gotta be out of the way.
Park at couple streets over
Sounds like having a tow truck business in Sturgis is lucrative.

I agree, I have the 2019 catalog, I think the last year before they discontinued the catalog
My Canadian Husband had the opportunity to go to Sturgis years ago, I hope he's still riding a Harley in Heaven
@Mate Varszegi swing and a miss with that joke.
Was he obese?
Nope it’s broke down he’s walking should’ve been riding a Indian
Back in 2005 ape hanger were illegal. Handbars couldn't be higher than shoulder. A couple cops helped me adjust them down. Good guys.
Headlight modulators are and have been Federally legal under FMVSS in all states since the mid 1980s.

Headlight modulators are for tools. They mimic the blink pattern of emergency flashers and distract drivers more than keep you safe.

Unless you have an almost forty year old bike, there is no switch anyway. How do you turn off yours?
Florida requires you turn on your headlight in the rain if you turn your wipers on.

Common sense is a super power.
I wish I was there! A complete stop is defined as Complete Stop of Rotation. Make sure your wheels stop rotating completely.
Excellent explanation of what you need to know.

Was Sturgis going on back in the 70's, I never heard about it in northern Okla if it was, I was working a lot then but I'd like to have gone.

LOL don't drive drunk but don't leave your bike. It's almost like entrapment.
Most states have laws pertaining to headlights, they have to be lit 1/2 hr before sunset to 1/2 hr after sunrise
Or just leave them on all the time. Safer that way. Most bikes in the last decade or better, the headlight is on at key on anyway.

Question. What do you do if you’re parked downtown and have to much fun? I don’t want a DUI and some jail time but I also don’t want my bike towed?
Motorcycle headlight modulators are legal in all 50 states per federal law.
What about yellow tinted sunglasses at night?
I would LOVE TO GO!
Then go!

hey just want to thank you for the tire i just purchased from site was fast delivery
Haven't been for awhile, correct me if i'm wrong, but Wyoming was single file on the highways.
I’m not a Harley rider I have a BMW 1250 rider Is that a bad idea to go ?? Is just for Harley’s riders ?
I've been there 5 times. BMW, BSA, Triumph, and Harley. No problem
The headlight law is as follows... Half hour before sunset, and half hour after sunrise, the light needs to be lit and visible at 500ft.. ✌
I believe that’s chuck jines bike at 3:15 pretty cool guy his channel is backroad biker adventures
Shoulda covered gun laws.They are far more restrictive during Sturgis
They are the same as any other time of year in South Dakota. All the states gun laws remain the same.

What kind of draconian place do you live where rolling a stop is a night in jail?
It's a small fine anywhere I've lived...
I have a question. When did motorcycling , start become a platform, to put on a show, instead of exciting transportation?
Well Sturgis is in its 80th year (less two during WWII) , Daytona is at 79........
@@CplDon63 What i do't understand is this! As a child , my father taught me that it was wrong to be a showoff, but all the Harley riders i see seem to make a virtue of it!
@@MrJimmy1437 in my experience there are two riders out there: the riders that are all about look at me and the riders who just love ther ride The riders that are all about look at me are the people who invest tens of thousands of dollars into a bike they never ride or the kids who think it's cool to do wheelies down the freeway or blast down the road at 95 miles an hour. You know the show offs. Me, I ride a Harley, pretty much stock except for a little engine work and a couple of trinkets to add comfort to the road. I'm not a Harley snob as I know several people are. Kawasaki Suzuki Honda Indian even victories: I have ridden with writers from every brand. But it's not just writers who have to be the look at me crowd as you can notice in any Camaro or Corvette or other car rally..... Granted I do believe that there are more of the look at me crowd amongst Harley Davidson owners than any other brand but not all of us are like that
@@CplDon63 I just don't understand why a person, would buy a Harley that costs, 25,000, that makes 56-66 hp that has an old design push rod engine, that is overweight, vibrates,is not reliable etc when for 15,000 you can buy a Yamaha FJR that makes 148HP, is smooth as silk, very reliable, fast, and handles like a race bike! A friend bought a new Harley last year, and it broke down, at 2,000 miles! I have a Yamaha FJR that has 88,000 miles and nobody has ever seen the engine except the people, who built it! It runs like new and the spark plugs have never been changed!
@@MrJimmy1437 all about what you like brother. I ride a flhtk. I'm comfy, happy and enjoy the ride, the wife had actually fallen asleep on the back seat. I rode an Electra glide for work for years and it never let me down. I got friends who ride Yamaha, Honda , Indian, Suzuki and even a victory..... nothing more than what makes you happy........ two wheels, open road, no destination..........
Ban baffles..........Silence is violence. Chant it with me.
