Harley Davidson Forty Eight Cruising over the 59th Bridge NYC Crazy View...

Hi 48ers! 
This is in my opinion one of my best visual videos to date. I am traveling from Queens over the 59th street bridge. I can tell you what a captivating ride it is but it's best if you see it for your self. During the whole ride i was lost like i had never seen it before. 

I have driven over a ton of times but there truly isn't anything like the open air and no cage feel of the ride to make this one of my most memorable ride and videos. All last year i took the lower level on the bridge but after this i will make sure that i will be taking the upper level. Hope you enjoy the ride.

Bx48 New Camera Angle riding in Queens NY on his Harley Davidson 48

Hi 48ers, 
This is the first video that i am using my new Harley 3/4 Helmet. Because of the face shield i had to change the camera positioning on the helmet so you will see that it is a left side view of my ride. I may attach a another clip on the right side. My advantages are that i don't have to wear glasses or bandana. Cons are that i can hardly hear the audio from my voice. In future videos i try speaking louder but sooner or later i will have to invest in a mic attachment for the Vlog. I am riding in the Astoria section of queens toward Steinway street. I talk a little about the diversity of queens. Enjoy the ride.

Harley Davidson Forty Eight Traffic Jam on the Major Degan i87 Bx48 vlog Go Pro Hero 3

Hi 48ers, 
A little video filmed on my way back form picking up my wife from midtown. This is a typical rush hour ride back to the Bronx on the I 87 in the Bronx. I was riding 2 up which mean with a passenger on the the back. It was a plesant day in the Bronx and the beauty or riding is that traffic is a little bearable on a motorcycle because it is my mission to make sure i stay moving. 

What would normally take 30 minutes is a 50% reduction in time would be a little more if i were riding solo but with a passenger you have to ride a little more cautious because braking and weight play a bigger factor in the ride. Harley's aren't know for great stock breaks. My wife freaked out a little when we went between 2 big trucks i don't mention it but i got a little punch in the ribs lol. Enjoy the ride.

Harley-Davidson Softail & Forty Eight w/ Honda CBR 1000 Cruising The Bro...

Hi 48ers,
This is the unofficial part 4 to the ride with the fellas. I didn't want to add any more parts to the riding series. The Sarg on the CBR 1000 and Rog on the Harley Davidson Fatboy. In this video we are riding back from Empire Harley Davidson and me talking about the first time i met the Sarg. The Sarg also showcases his hidden talent of doing cool Wheelies. Rog had just picked up a new Helmet at Harley which i got one also because i was a little tired of the open face helmet and at the price it was a bargain. 

You will see the new videos that i post from now on will have the new video angle on them because i had to mount the camera on the side due to the visor on the new helmet. It was a great day to ride early in spring so we took advantage of that fact. The ride to City Island was awesome since there wasn't any traffic. That is a completely different story in the summer time where it is jam packed with cars. Enjoy the ride.

2013 Harley-Davidson "Forty-Eight" Sportster with Vance and Hines "Black...

Hi 48ers!

On this blog i introduce another rider in The Bronx that owns a 2013 Harley Davidson Sportster 48 2013 motorcycle. I was looking for a parking space to jump on the metro north into midtown and simultaneously found a parking and saw the bikes owner by the bike. 

After a few minutes talking about bikes the owner (Fabian) allowed me to film the motorcycle and also gave me a preview of the bad ass exhaust sound that comes from his Vance and Hines 2 into 2 exhaust. Its a short but sweet film. Enjoy the video.

CBR 1000 Harley Davidson Fatboy & 48 Cruising to City Island NYC Bx48 vl...

Hi 48ers!

In this ride we are crossing over the bridge that takes us into the town of City Island in the Bronx. City Island is one of the little treasures of NYC. The island is small and mainly attacks hundreds of visitor daily in the warmer spring and summer months. It has a ton of Seafood restaurants and small docs where there is allot of boating activities. 

I hold allot of great memories of my childhood hanging out in Tony's pier at the end of the Island where our family would come to eat and hang out on the pier. Now with a motorcycle i find out that this is a great meeting location for the fellas to come relax and hang out kick back and relax from a long week of work. This is part 4 to our ride with the Sarg and Rog. Since it is right before the busy season we cruise back and forth on the island pretty quickly. Enjoy the ride.

Motorcycle Insurance in New York City Harley Davidson Sportster Bx48 Vlog

Hi 48ers!
For this video i wanted to discuss the prices of New York City motorcycle insurance through my experiences. I am in my 30's when i got my first motorcycle. That bike was a Honda CBR 600rr. I was determined to break all normalcy and learn to ride and treat myself to a motorcycle that i would not need to upgrade.

Little did i know that it wouldn't be the bike that would break me but the insurance that would shorten my desire for a fast bike in New York City. My insurance for liability was $1500 for the CBR for the year. Which was more money than i expected especially being the car was fully insured for less than this. I have an amazing driving record which didn't matter in this case of having a super sport motorcycle.

Insurance in New York City goes by statistics based of accidents and how much these great machines are stolen. This lead me down the path of a cruiser. I saw the Harley Davidson 48 in the NY motorcycle show. I sat on it and knew this was the bike that i wanted to ride. I instantly called my insurance company and my insurance dropped so dramatically that i went on a feverish assault to change my motorcycle to assure that i would be able to continue to ride and be able to afford it.

The Sportster insurance for the year full coverage is $500. FULL COVERAGE FOR THE YEAR! Hence Bx48 was created. Hope you enjoy the video.

Honda CBR1000, Harley Fatboy & Forty Eight Cruising in NYC, Bx48 Vlog Go...

Hi 48ers,

This is part 3 to the chill ride with the fellas The Sarg on the Honda Cbr1000 and Rog on the Harley Davidson Fat boy. The oil change was done and we did a last minute change of plan to head over the City Island. Which is in the works to be uploaded soon.

The ride back was relaxed with us cruising on the 95 south. It was our first group ride but since we have been riding together for a few years now we all have our styles down and we know what to expect and have our signals all down. Towards the end of the film you will have the sarg do a very cool wheelie and Rog zoom by with that sexy exhaust.

The video is a simple highway chill but since i have been getting good feed back from this film series i decided to include it and have you guy enjoy the ride. Stay tuned for the City Island video that was a fun ride.
