I agree with all your points Robert. Our time is very valuable. What gets under my skin is when they start making excuses and hoping I will get tired of waiting and just accept it.
After seeing the whole video the thing I most appreciated is how you showed us what to expect from a dealer. We come here to learn riding techniques but we come away with so much more. Thank you for your efforts.
Been learning a lot on being the boss of that bike. But most of all , I like the way you shout that Queen out and give her props. You a real King my brother. Your character is on fleek. Thank you for all of the knowledge and wisdom. Look forward to attending your class one day.
You a true leader that get things done. Are you sure you in your calling. I feel something more important in the working in you. I love Harleys too...especially Road glides and Street guide. Still working on owning one. Keep up the good work. Hopefully I will get to ride with you someday. If it's the Lord will...
When you spend the amount of money we spend on these bikes it’s no excuses when it comes to details like cleaning the bike. I agree with everything you said
@Car&Track7 thanks…I ask because there are a few light scratches I never saw on my bike when I purchased it. Was wondering if it’s something that can be “corrected”?
Congratulations on the new Road Glide CVO Robert! It's a fantastic machine for sure. I completely agree with your approach and standards when it comes to making purchases, especially large ticket purchases; the delivered product at the conclusion of the sale should be immaculate without defect or any issue. Also, I have mad respect for you and your lovely wife. So proud of your service as an officer and your pursuits now as you demonstrate products and produce quality videos and content for our information and enjoyment. I'm a Preloader, and now as you reveal in this video, all of us subscribers are in the elite group of 21% of viewers! Interesting... Thanks so much,, and blessings to you and your wife :)
At the 48 min. mark I could just imagine your neighbor across the street peeking through her kitchen window and shouting out to her husband "Larry, Robert's buying motorcycles again! "
The 14” windshield works great specially in the rain and you can hear your stereo, but the 9” looks cool. The 12” I don’t care for. I ride 2019 Road Glide Special.
I love your attitude of gratitude. Your words of wisdom are greatly appreciated. I will continue to watch your channel and see your improvements to the new road glide and hope to see it in the practice sessions. Got Bless.
Rob you made me smile and laugh out loud when you said you purchased that beautiful Road glide cvo congrats my brother loving it and continue enjoying your life
Hey Robert they did the same for me at Eisenhower Harley Davidson in Tioga county Pennsylvania. I received a free t shirt and so did my wife they also gave me a tour of the dealership and introduced us to all the key people who work there they also gave me a parts catalog and went over all details of my bike a 2019 road glide ultra mind you I bought it used used and they made me feel special . I will never forget that they will always get my business. Congratulations on the new road glide CVO and welcome to the road glide family best of luck.
Much respect to you Robert. I fully understand where you are coming from. When you drop 40K+ on a brand new bike, that thing had better be 100% spotless on delivery. I hate to say it, but when they hand you a "detailed" bike in that condition, it would make me question the continued service. JMO. With that said, that is one beautiful bike. Nice choice.
Logan82665 My thoughts exactly. If they can't wipe off fingerprints properly, are they really going to do a good and thorough job on the services? Amazing Bike Robert!
I'll never be able to purchase a new bike from a dealership so it's nice to watch a video like this and see the whole experience. Thanks for taking us along!
Just saw your channel first time. Love motorcycles (enjoyment vs need right on) but as a LEO myself, I like your video more because of how you have a standard, which indicates solid principles, and our world needs everyone to “professionally” hold others accountable. You just got a subscriber and a share with my riding group! God bless and safe riding my friend!
No you're not overreacting. You bought it, you need to get it like you want it. Thank you for your years of service with NYPD, Robert. You still represent them well, Sir. As for the new bike...that is one more beautiful bike!!! Ride safe and enjoy and keep up your good works Paying It Forward!!!
That is a sharp bike! I just purchased a 2021 Roadglide CVO this past June. My bike is the black hole color scheme. First bike I’ve ever purchased and that I have ever ridden. I have nothing to compare this bike to due to never riding another bike in my life. I’ve had it for a month and all I know is that I love it! Watching your videos and putting the techniques into practice, it’s helped me so much. I’ve already put 730 miles on it and a lot of those miles are slow riding practice. My confidence is so much higher and it showed this past weekend at a 3 day riding course. I nailed the tasked that we had to do in the course. The instructor couldn’t believe that I had only been riding for a month. It’s mainly due to practicing your techniques that you teach. It has helped me so much. Thank you! Btw, I am 49 years old and I’m 6’ 5” tall. I purchased a smoked 11” clockworks windshield. It was perfect and hits me about the height of my lips when I sit on the bike. It made a big difference for sure. Looks good on the bike as well. I’ve got a lot to work on to be the boss of my bike but wow, I’ve came a long way in a month and look forward to practicing and gaining more confidence daily. Thanks!
Wow Scott! Thank you very much! I appreciate your compliment on the bike, but it was quickly cancelled out when you mentioned that you've been practicing and that you're a new rider and most of your miles on your bike are from practicing! That's not only awesome, it's extremely responsible! I’m happy that my channel has been helpful to you! That makes all the time and effort that I put into this so worthwhile! Congratulations on your new bike! You did it right the first try! Also thank you for the information on the windshield! Preload!!! And Keep It Loaded!!!!
Love this gentleman, he still has the cop in him when he asked why is he signing something that is not checked. The Harley guy took the clip board right away and started reading him the checklist, lol! Not a full tank, ain’t going to fly by his standards. Attention to detail, love it!
Congrats on your new bike! Very nice! I'm also recently retired LE and purchased a new road glide limited as a treat to myself. Yes, you're absolutely right about YOLO!
I was given a catalog, a t-shirt, a tour, a history background of my 2003 Heritage Softail 100th anniversary edition and also, me being a Veteran, I was given a $250 gift card, and a 5 visit for 20% off the item. That was St. Paul Harley Davidson in St. Paul MN. I also had the walk to my bike with a ring of a bell and a song. I chose Poison, Talk Dirty to me. Right, I forgot it started with a free full tank of gas.
Great video. I live a few minutes away from FFHD. Their customer service has been an issue in the past and they obviously still have work to do. YOLO really hit home with me.... keep preaching.
Sweet Road Glide CVO. Robert just watched this on TV, I immediately wanted to comment on what you said and asked. 1st, I do have a premaintenace package. My local Harley Davidson shop worked with me and transfered it to where I can get all my work done close to my house, when my bike was bought at Bruce Rossmeyer in Daytona. I also have this package on my Street Glide Revival.I also agree with what you said with FOLO. You have earned this and God bless you. As always thank you for your passion. I have gotten so much from your videos and practice on what you teach. I am now teaching my wife to ride with what you say. She is doing good. Thank you so so much again for what you do. 💗you guys.
Thank you very much! I really appreciate your kind words!I’m happy that my channel has been helpful to you! That makes all the time and effort that I put into this so worthwhile! It’s my pleasure.
Robert, you may or may not know this, you measure from the middle screw that is in the fairing and go vertical, and cross that vertical 'measuring tape' horizontally level with your chin while sitting upright on the motorcycle, and the height of the vertical 90 degrees crossing the level horizontal 'stick' with your chin is the height you need for your fairing. Hopefully I'm explaining correctly.
awesome video robert...this is the first video of yours that i have seen and loved it....and yes i hit the like button, the subsrcibed button and the bell button....i am a retired florida state officer ( state corrections ) did 21yrs....i ride a 2014 ultra limited 2 tone blue peace officer special edition...my wife bought it for me for my retirement gift....i total agree with your yolo saying.....last year i was in a horrible truck accident and died....god and the great medical staff brought me back to life....spent 5 months in the hospital major truama and multible surgies....still recoverying....but never thought that when i walked out my front door it was going to be my last.....changed my way of thinking and life foreever.....i have some friends in georgia and plan on riding that way....would love to meet up....or if u ever come to florida....sorry so long of a post....again awesome videos....ride safe
Thank you very much! But more importantly, thank you for sharing that story! That is truly amazing! You are truly blessed. Also, thank you for your service! The good news is we both have good weather pretty much all year long so when you're ready, I'll be here.👍🏾
“Everything happens for a reason” my wife and I are a HUGE believer in that! I’m still trying to get her used to YOLO lol. Awesome content sir! Beautiful bike, congratulations! I am in Hinesville, GA and I am not satisfied with our local Harley-Davidson anymore. Thanks to you, I will be making a trip to Falcons Fury for another bike!
Like Adam Sandoval says “life is short, buy the damn Motorcyle”... or in your situation, motorcycles lol congrats man, beautiful bike!... step 4? Turn from a stop
Subscribed. Just found your channel so jumped on my phone to comment. You did well recognising and describing the 4K TV watchers procedure. First time I have seen that. Unfortunately, no comments enabled on my 4K TV but the thumbs are there. I enjoyed your natural and informative dialogue and you obviously take a lot of care with your editing. Looking forward to exploring your channel over here in Australia.
Just seeing this. Beautiful bike. I just picked up a 21 rgs in red /black. I'll be joining your vipreloaders shortly. Thanks for all you do. I do agree that the bike should be flawless on delivery. I was also impressed with the tour & swag you got. An impressive dealer for sure.
I know it’s an old video but Ifyou are thinking the VIP service is free it’s not. It’s thousands of dollars. Consider $500 to change oils and check it over X 6. Pickup and delivery each time adds up as well. I’m guessing it was $2500 plus you cannot do any mechanical additions to the bike while under that program. They have to do it at that dealership. Def cannot do aftermarket cams or tuners while under the VIP program.
Robert, you my friend are out of control. Do they have a support group like AA for people who collect too many Harleys? Careful my friend or you will have to go back to work to support your habit 🤣
Y.O.L.O.!!!!! I've been putting this off since 2019. I'll be visiting Red Rock Harley Davidson (las vegas) on Sunday 8/1/21 to order my 2021 RGS BALLARD TEAL. Robert, thanks for the inspiration!
Like many (or most) of your subscribers I got hooked on slow maneuvering videos, and now am appreciating following you. Yes, we ought to keep our dealers honest and not to let them slack into poor customer experience. Thanks for sharing your life with us.
Hey Robert it’s Walt from Detroit, I’m a huge fan of the channel. I think the channel is dope and very helpful to me and some of my friends that ride. I also want to thank you for you service, and for being my brother blue even though your retired
Congrats man! Beautiful bike. Good on you for demanding it to me in mint condition. Nothing else to expect when its brand new! Enjoy this one, its stunning.
Man I wish I knew you were going to be there. I live down the street bro. Anyway if u ever want to get rid of 1 of your bikes??? U should autograph it and raffle it away. So u can buy even more bikes for u and the channel. Salute!
You are 100% correct that’s all we ask when we buy it we wanted to look like it’s brand new when we take it in for service we want to get it back like it was taken in brand new I don’t understand why dealerships can’t comprehend that this is their business!! That shows no pride especially for the managers sales and service!!!💯💯💯
Love your channel bro. I just got my first Road Glide 2021 Special. I live in Germany. 22 years retired from the Army. I am also from G.A. Home is Atlanta. I like your show cause you teach as you go. I have had plenty of street bikes but not a Harley. So I am still learning. It's a totally different ride. I look forward to watching you and learning even more. If you have any advice for me please let me know. Appreciate you and thanks for teaching as you go....
Freaking A Robert! I’m looking forward to you throwing that bad boy around. I’m practicing on mines and have dropped my RG a couple of times, but that ain’t stopping me.
I thoroughly enjoyed this video. You are the neighbor I wished I had lol. You have found the secret sauce to life that so many will never because of ego and fear. Good luck.
I never let the maroons in the back detail a new bike or a new car. I rather do it myself and use all new microfibers and the right detail products. They swirled the crap out of my brand new Ram 1500 the day I bought it.
1st time viewer & this is my 3rd comment. I'm very impressed with your style & skills so I'm subscribing. BTW that is the nicest NEW Harley I have ever seen, congratulations
Great video Robert. I too have 'expectations" when you buy a new vehicle. The dealership looked clean and modern, friendly staff, service dept sounded great w 6 services free, a free membership to H.O.G. , welcoming gift, catalogs, but the bike ready to go out the door in less than show room condition is real egg on their face and reflects bad on them. I purchased what I thought was a brand new bike off the show room floor from the dealership I have done business with for years and quickly learned after signing the papers on my street glide, the staff was taking it to and from home and had 300 miles on it and was dirty when the saddle baggs came off. I was pissed !! ... p.S. I would like to apply to the NY city PD. I want to afford 4 new CVO's with all the trimmings without batting an eye... bahahahahaha ... just kiddin.. good for you that you can do that. the Road glide is beautiful and I know a few people that went from the street glide to RG because of the frame mounted fairing and easier to move around. Great channel Robert and wish you and Anita all the success. An avide V.I. preloader
Robert, you did the right thing. You're spending your money and it will be taken care of. Never give up. Thanks again for your help with slow motorcycle maneuvers.
New subscriber. Wood nation brought me here. From one cop to another. 21 yrs. on the job. You are such a motor. Rigid, rules, citations, incessant. Ease up, you’re retired now. Ride safe!
Congrats on your awesome purchase. And thank you for your service, very glad to see you out and healthy and enjoying your very deserved retirement. Love love love that rig.
I bought a $14,000 pre-owned Indian Springfield, and it was in impeccable condition with a full tank of gas when I bought it. The salesman also helped to load the bike on my trailer. For the price of a CVO, the dealership should check and recheck to make sure everything is up to your standards.
Robert, As much as a CVO is you shouldn't have to add anything else! I also agree with the check list.if they didn't detail my bike properly, shit would hit the fan after spending fifty grand. and also them not filling the tank up! great job Robert!
My take on the most important thing said here... “Things are not important, people are”. I needed reminded of that today. My parents would tell me that all of the time. True it doesn’t mean we can’t enjoy nice things. It means keep perspective. Practice gratitude and humility, they are also perishable traits. You eluded to all this. Thank you for the riding improvement lessons, attention to detail in all things and the positive attitude. Thank you also for your time.
The failure to pay attention to detail is concerning...especially when you know you're selling a $40k bike to a dude with a 40k subscriber base. Every bike should leave in pristine condition, but when you know this is going out to thousands of people and still don't get it right...C'mon man!
My god it’s a beautiful motorcycle I wish I could afford one shit I don’t even think I can handle that big motorcycle I have only been riding for a few year and my middle weight cruiser weighs about 675 lbs
Thank you very much! Try your best to forget about the weight. You're a Preloader! Of course you could handle it! Practicing will improve your techniques, which will raise your confidence, which will make you believe that the weight of the motorcycle doesn't really matter.
I agree with all your points Robert. Our time is very valuable. What gets under my skin is when they start making excuses and hoping I will get tired of waiting and just accept it.
“Hey Tim, it doesn’t have a full tank.” Tim learned a lesson this day
After seeing the whole video the thing I most appreciated is how you showed us what to expect from a dealer.
We come here to learn riding techniques but we come away with so much more.
Thank you for your efforts.
It’s my pleasure. 😊 I’m happy that my channel has been helpful to you! That makes all the time and effort that I put into this so worthwhile!
Been learning a lot on being the boss of that bike. But most of all , I like the way you shout that Queen out and give her props. You a real King my brother. Your character is on fleek. Thank you for all of the knowledge and wisdom. Look forward to attending your class one day.
Thank you for watching and hopefully you’re subscribed to my RUclips channel!👍🏾😊 ruclips.net/user/BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle I’m happy that my channel has been helpful to you! That makes all the time and effort that I put into this so worthwhile! Also, thank you for the compliment!
It’s my pleasure. 😊 Hope to meet and practice with you soon! Preload!!! And Keep It Loaded!!!! ©
You a true leader that get things done. Are you sure you in your calling. I feel something more important in the working in you. I love Harleys too...especially Road glides and Street guide. Still working on owning one. Keep up the good work. Hopefully I will get to ride with you someday. If it's the Lord will...

@Car&Track7 Nice!
@Car&Track7 been thinking about getting my new RKS coated. What is “corrected the paint” mean?
@Car&Track7 thanks…I ask because there are a few light scratches I never saw on my bike when I purchased it. Was wondering if it’s something that can be “corrected”?
If you are going to collect bikes like Robert Simmons, you better Pre-Load that bank account and keep it Loaded!
🤣🤣😂😂
Thank you for your honesty, you set the bar of what customer service should be. 💪🏽
Thank you. It’s my pleasure.
This is how you assert yourself without being disrespectful. Thank you for your example!
Thank you. It’s my pleasure. 😊

Robert, I love the dealer critique! They may sell a lot, but their QC needs work!
100%. End to end, continuity.
At the 48 min. mark I could just imagine your neighbor across the street peeking through her kitchen window and shouting out to her husband "Larry, Robert's buying motorcycles again! "
😂😂🤣🤣
That my favorite CVO. The Kali Muscle CVO.
I couldn’t help but smile during the ringing of the bell.
The 14” windshield works great specially in the rain and you can hear your stereo, but the 9” looks cool. The 12” I don’t care for. I ride 2019 Road Glide Special.

Enjoy, I bought the 2021 Red & Black CVO Street Glide. Love it. Thank you for your service.
Rob you made me smile and laugh out loud when you said you purchased that beautiful Road glide cvo congrats my brother loving it and continue enjoying your life

Hey, thank you for reminding these guys who the Customer is. thumbs up!

Love your collection buddy.

Never heard a dealership give out any free service before. Thats crazy good for them, and great for the customer. Congrats on the CVO, beautiful bike!
I know right!! Thank you very much!
You’ll probably be getting a bill of $2,500.00 for that “free” service. 💸
I know it’s an old video but Ifyou are thinking the VIP service is free it’s not. It’s thousands of dollars. Consider $500 to change oils and check it over X 6. Pickup and delivery each time adds up as well. I’m guessing it was $2500 plus you cannot do any mechanical additions to the bike while under that program. They have to do it at that dealership. Def cannot do aftermarket cams or tuners while under the VIP program.
Thanks for a great channel. Thank you for your service.
Robert, you my friend are out of control. Do they have a support group like AA for people who collect too many Harleys? Careful my friend or you will have to go back to work to support your habit 🤣
Agree 100%....YOLO! You are very blessed and we are blessed to have you in our lives!
Thank you very much Jim! That means a lot! Very powerful words that aren't wasted on me!
Y.O.L.O.!!!!! I've been putting this off since 2019.
I'll be visiting Red Rock Harley Davidson (las vegas) on Sunday 8/1/21 to order my 2021 RGS BALLARD TEAL.
Robert, thanks for the inspiration!
That's outstanding!! Keep me apprised please and send me some pictures of it!
Like many (or most) of your subscribers I got hooked on slow maneuvering videos, and now am appreciating following you. Yes, we ought to keep our dealers honest and not to let them slack into poor customer experience. Thanks for sharing your life with us.
Thank you for watching and subscribing!👍🏾😁
Hey Robert it’s Walt from Detroit, I’m a huge fan of the channel. I think the channel is dope and very helpful to me and some of my friends that ride. I also want to thank you for you service, and for being my brother blue even though your retired
Hey Walt! Thank you very much! I really appreciate that and I’m extremely flattered!!
Also, thank you for your service! 👍🏾
Both dealerships I've bought from gave a free shirt, catalog, patch and pin, tour, etc. with every bike I purchased.
Anything you receive is not free. It's all built into the sales price. If you buy a $30,000 t-shirt, H-D will give you a free motorcycle.
@@bobberguy1 No they won't. They'll give you a free t-shirt.
Treat someone the way you want to be treated - customer service is key! 100% - Time isn't the one thing you can't get back! Great post.
Thank you very much!
I felt the message at the end 💯 Thank you Mr Simmons!!
It’s my pleasure.
Congrats man! Beautiful bike. Good on you for demanding it to me in mint condition. Nothing else to expect when its brand new! Enjoy this one, its stunning.
Thank you very much!
Man I wish I knew you were going to be there. I live down the street bro. Anyway if u ever want to get rid of 1 of your bikes??? U should autograph it and raffle it away. So u can buy even more bikes for u and the channel. Salute!
Like the program. You’re doing what I’ve been doing lately. Checking out future rides.
Thank you very much! Thank you for watching and hopefully you’re subscribed!👍🏾😊
You are 100% correct that’s all we ask when we buy it we wanted to look like it’s brand new when we take it in for service we want to get it back like it was taken in brand new I don’t understand why dealerships can’t comprehend that this is their business!! That shows no pride especially for the managers sales and service!!!💯💯💯
Indeed!
Love your channel bro. I just got my first Road Glide 2021 Special. I live in Germany. 22 years retired from the Army. I am also from G.A. Home is Atlanta. I like your show cause you teach as you go. I have had plenty of street bikes but not a Harley. So I am still learning. It's a totally different ride. I look forward to watching you and learning even more. If you have any advice for me please let me know. Appreciate you and thanks for teaching as you go....
Thank you very much! Thank you for watching and hopefully you’re subscribed to my RUclips channel!👍🏾😊 ruclips.net/user/BeTheBossOfYourMotorcycle I’m happy that my channel has been helpful to you! That makes all the time and effort that I put into this so worthwhile!
Also, thank you for your service! Preload!!! And Keep It Loaded!!!! ©
Freaking A Robert! I’m looking forward to you throwing that bad boy around. I’m practicing on mines and have dropped my RG a couple of times, but that ain’t stopping me.
I thoroughly enjoyed this video. You are the neighbor I wished I had lol. You have found the secret sauce to life that so many will never because of ego and fear. Good luck.
Thank you very much!!!!!
I never let the maroons in the back detail a new bike or a new car. I rather do it myself and use all new microfibers and the right detail products. They swirled the crap out of my brand new Ram 1500 the day I bought it.
Thanks for posting no idea why I connect our video too long
It’s my pleasure. 😊
Custom Dynamic lights will be the first thing you do (smile). By the way, major congratulations on your new Road Glide CVO.
You're absolutely correct! Thank you very much!
Man them LT checks must be long! Lol, keep rolling good my man! I ain't mad at yah!
Congrats on the new CVO!! 💪🏽💯
Thank you very much!
1st time viewer & this is my 3rd comment. I'm very impressed with your style & skills so I'm subscribing. BTW that is the nicest NEW Harley I have ever seen, congratulations
Great video Robert. I too have 'expectations" when you buy a new vehicle. The dealership looked clean and modern, friendly staff, service dept sounded great w 6 services free, a free membership to H.O.G. , welcoming gift, catalogs, but the bike ready to go out the door in less than show room condition is real egg on their face and reflects bad on them. I purchased what I thought was a brand new bike off the show room floor from the dealership I have done business with for years and quickly learned after signing the papers on my street glide, the staff was taking it to and from home and had 300 miles on it and was dirty when the saddle baggs came off. I was pissed !! ...
p.S. I would like to apply to the NY city PD. I want to afford 4 new CVO's with all the trimmings without batting an eye... bahahahahaha ... just kiddin.. good for you that you can do that. the Road glide is beautiful and I know a few people that went from the street glide to RG because of the frame mounted fairing and easier to move around. Great channel Robert and wish you and Anita all the success. An avide V.I. preloader
Thank you very much Lenny! For the record, I only have 3 CVO’s. 🤣
Robert, you did the right thing. You're spending your money and it will be taken care of. Never give up. Thanks again for your help with slow motorcycle maneuvers.
Thank you very much! It’s my pleasure. 😊
Finally... now we can get a Road Glide tee shirt!
Congrats on the new bike, Robert. Wishing you many safe miles with it. Be safe. Signed, a fellow Brooklynite (who now resides in Maryland).
Thank you very much!
Wait until you ride it for a while, can’t beet the frame mounted fearing.
New subscriber. Wood nation brought me here. From one cop to another. 21 yrs. on the job. You are such a motor. Rigid, rules, citations, incessant. Ease up, you’re retired now. Ride safe!
Thank you for watching and subscribing!👍🏾😁 Also, thank you for your service!
The first step to recovery is admitting you have a problem 😂
I gotta admit, some years back I had as many as 6 bikes at a time...it is an easy hobby and vehicle activity to fall in love with for sure!
Congrats on your awesome purchase. And thank you for your service, very glad to see you out and healthy and enjoying your very deserved retirement. Love love love that rig.
Thank you very much brother! It’s my pleasure. 😊
Love the lesson at the end!!!!!
Thank you very much!
Congrats on the new RG! My husband has the Snake Venom RG you mentioned that is different colors depending on the light. Enjoy your new ride!!
Thank you very much!
I bought a $14,000 pre-owned Indian Springfield, and it was in impeccable condition with a full tank of gas when I bought it. The salesman also helped to load the bike on my trailer. For the price of a CVO, the dealership should check and recheck to make sure everything is up to your standards.
Exactly!
Robert, welcome to the RG family!! Your gonna love the road glide!
Thanks brother!
So glad you bought a road glide now show me what she’s capable of
Thank you. Will do!
Glad to see someone meticulous like me. 30 year's on the job Robert. I appreciate you.
Thank you very much! Thank you for watching and hopefully you’re subscribed!👍🏾😊 Also, thank you for your service!
Robert, As much as a CVO is you shouldn't have to add anything else! I also agree with the check list.if they didn't detail my bike properly, shit would hit the fan after spending fifty grand. and also them not filling the tank up! great job Robert!
Thank you very much Matt!!
My take on the most important thing said here... “Things are not important, people are”. I needed reminded of that today. My parents would tell me that all of the time. True it doesn’t mean we can’t enjoy nice things. It means keep perspective. Practice gratitude and humility, they are also perishable traits. You eluded to all this. Thank you for the riding improvement lessons, attention to detail in all things and the positive attitude. Thank you also for your time.
It’s my pleasure. 😊 Thank you very much! Thank you for watching and hopefully you’re subscribed!👍🏾😊
Harley should give at least a 3yr., 36k warranty on their premium product.
BMW gives 3/36 on ALL of their bikes, HD could do the same premium or not.
Congrats Rob on the new bike. The Road glide was an excellent choice. I have a 9” clockworks on my 2020 Road glide special.
Thank you very much!
I'm sure you'll change the exhaust and lighting.
Yep!
I can understand your frustration, but reality follows us all the time in an imperfect world. Keep the BP in check! Love your channel too.
Thank you very much! Thank you for watching and hopefully you’re subscribed!👍🏾😊
Mr. Simmons get them straight on how they should wash and detail a very expensive motorcycle…👨🏾🦱☝🏾👍🏾🧐🤔
Very, very, expensive motorcycle
Yes ma'am!
What a sweet ride ! And thanks for your years of service.
Thank you very much! It’s my pleasure. 😊
We need a simmons bike show, let’s see them all lined up together! Congrats!
I C U got 26 Haters!! Live on my Bro!! Thanks for all the great Information you provide.👊🏾🤟🏾✌🏾Continue to live well, bless and highly favored.
Congrats Bob, its an excellent choice. Enjoy your new machine.
Thank you very much!
The failure to pay attention to detail is concerning...especially when you know you're selling a $40k bike to a dude with a 40k subscriber base. Every bike should leave in pristine condition, but when you know this is going out to thousands of people and still don't get it right...C'mon man!
Wow that's an excellent point and well said Dave!You're absolutely correct!
More than $40k! More like $50k!

Congratulations Robert! That CVO is a beast! I saw one just like that at the dealership here in southern md.
Thank you very much!
My god it’s a beautiful motorcycle I wish I could afford one shit I don’t even think I can handle that big motorcycle I have only been riding for a few year and my middle weight cruiser weighs about 675 lbs
Thank you very much! Try your best to forget about the weight. You're a Preloader! Of course you could handle it! Practicing will improve your techniques, which will raise your confidence, which will make you believe that the weight of the motorcycle doesn't really matter.
Nice bike LT., welcome to the Road Glide family. I’m 6’4” and I have the 8” shield.
Thank you very much! You must wear a full face helmet.
