In this episode, Ryan takes us behind the scenes of his trip to Circuit of the Americas (COTA) in Austin, Texas, with Indian Motorcycle for an unforgettable weekend of MotoAmerica racing. Ryan shares what it was like experiencing the event as a guest of Indian Motorcycle, getting an up-close look at the factory racing operation, spending time around the Indian team, and watching some of the fastest bagger motorcycles in the world attack one of America's premier road-racing circuits. We talk about the overall COTA experience and what motorcycle racing looks and feels like when you're able to get closer to the teams, riders, and machines. SUPPORT US AND SHOP IN THE OFFICIAL LAW ABIDING BIKER STORE Of course, the big story at COTA was the 2026 MotoAmerica Mission King of the Baggers Championship. Indian Motorcycle factory rider Hayden Gillim arrived in Texas with an opportunity to wrap up the title early, and that's exactly what happened. Gillim captured his eighth victory of the season in Race 1 aboard the Vance & Hines-built Indian Challenger, setting a new King of the Baggers single-season win record. A second-place finish in Race 2 was enough to clinch the 2026 championship with one round remaining. Gillim also made history by becoming the first rider to win King of the Baggers championships for two different manufacturers.

From Ryan's firsthand experience with Indian Motorcycle at COTA to the factory rivalry between the Indian Challenger and Harley-Davidson Road Glide, we cover the people, motorcycles, racing, and stories that made the 2026 season one to remember. King of the Baggers continues to transform heavyweight American touring motorcycles into legitimate road-racing machines, and the competition between Indian Motorcycle, Harley-Davidson, Vance & Hines, Dynojet, and some of the world's best motorcycle racers keeps pushing the class forward. If you're a Harley or Indian rider, or simply love high-performance American V-twin motorcycles this episode gives you our perspective on the 2026 MotoAmerica King of the Baggers season and Ryan's inside look at racing at Circuit of the Americas.

Harley-Davidson has added two very different, but distinctly old-school, motorcycles to its 2026 lineup with the new Deadwood and the return of the legendary Super Glide. Both bikes lean heavily into Harley-Davidson history while combining that styling with the modern Softail platform, Milwaukee-Eight power, selectable ride modes, and current rider-safety technology. The Deadwood is an entirely new name inspired by the stripped-down motorcycles and independent riders associated with the post-World War II era and the Black Hills, while the Super Glide brings back one of the most recognizable names in Harley history. In this episode of the Law Abiding Biker™ Podcast, we break down both motorcycles, what makes them unique, and where they fit in Harley-Davidson's evolving cruiser lineup. SUPPORT US AND SHOP IN THE OFFICIAL LAW ABIDING BIKER STORE The 2026 Harley-Davidson Deadwood may be the more interesting of the two because Harley has given it a personality unlike anything else currently in the cruiser lineup. Finished in Denim Black with orange tank graphics, the Deadwood is blacked out from the front end and controls to the engine, exhaust, and tank console. A solo tuck-and-roll seat, smoked chopped windshield, clean fenders, black tubeless laced wheels, and a shortened rear monoshock create its low, slammed appearance. Underneath the vintage-inspired styling is a Milwaukee-Eight 117 Classic engine, five-gallon fuel tank, selectable ride modes, and Harley-Davidson Rider Safety Enhancements. Harley says the inspiration goes back to riders who stripped unnecessary parts from their motorcycles after World War II, while the Deadwood name and marketing tie the motorcycle directly to Sturgis and the Black Hills. U.S. MSRP starts at $17,999. CHECK OUT OUR HUNDREDS OF FREE HELPFUL VIDEOS ON OUR YOUTUBE CHANNEL AND SUBSCRIBE! The 2026 Super Glide, meanwhile, reaches even deeper into Harley-Davidson history. Fifty-five years after the original 1971 FX Super Glide helped establish the factory-custom concept, Harley has revived the name with a motorcycle designed to immediately remind riders of Willie G. Davidson's original creation. White Onyx Pearl paint, stretched vintage FX tank graphics with red-and-blue striping, extensive chrome, tubeless laced wheels, chrome mini-ape handlebars, mid controls, and a five-gallon teardrop tank deliver the retro look. Power comes from the Milwaukee-Eight 117 Classic, rated by Harley at 98 horsepower and 120 lb-ft of torque in the U.S. specification. Modern touches include selectable ride modes, rider safety enhancements, an adjustable front brake lever, and traditional-looking tank-mounted instrumentation backed by a multifunction LCD display. What really makes the Super Glide stand apart is its exclusivity. Harley-Davidson is producing just 2,500 individually serialized 2026 Super Glide motorcycles worldwide, with the model introduced as a Special Edition celebrating the 250th anniversary of the United States. With a U.S. starting MSRP of $15,999, it is also positioned below the Deadwood despite its limited-production status. Together, these two motorcycles show Harley-Davidson taking a decidedly heritage-driven approach: the Deadwood creates a new model around the stripped-down attitude of post-war custom motorcycles and the Black Hills, while the Super Glide resurrects a name and styling cues that helped define factory customization more than half a century ago. On the podcast, we dig into both bikes and discuss whether this blend of Harley history and modern technology is the direction riders have been waiting for.

In this episode, I'm joined by Lurch and we talk about the 2026 Indian Roadmaster that was just added to the Law Abiding Biker stable.  This isn't my first time in the saddle of an Indian. Long-time viewers of my YouTube Channel will remember I ran a Pursuit PowerPlus for about a year, followed by a loaned 2025 Indian Roadmaster PowerPlus last fall, a bike I still have on hand. Both of those were loaner relationships, which is exactly why this 2026 Roadmaster means something different: it's the first Indian Motorcycle that's actually mine. I've also attended multiple Indian Motorcycle press events to test ride and review other motorcycles and those are also on my YouTube Channel. SUPPORT US AND SHOP IN THE OFFICIAL LAW ABIDING BIKER STORE I want to remind newer viewers what's always set Law Abiding Biker apart: I'm independent. I don't work for any motorcycle manufacturer — I work for myself and for you, the riding community. That means every video, including this one, comes with the same honest treatment: what I like right out of the box, and just as importantly, the small things that could be improved as I rack up miles. Owning this bike now, rather than borrowing it, means I can go further than ever — full customization, long-term testing, and an ongoing series of ride and review videos as the PowerPlus Dark Horse gets broken in. CHECK OUT OUR HUNDREDS OF FREE HELPFUL VIDEOS ON OUR YOUTUBE CHANNEL AND SUBSCRIBE! True to form, I wasted no time getting the rider triangle set up before the bike's even been started. First up was pulling the reflectors — step one on basically every bike that rolls into my shop. From there: Ciro drink holder — available in black or chrome, installed here using the perch mount (swapping the factory half-clamp for hardware and a ball head), with a universal bar mount option also available for those who don't want to swap the factory clamp bolts. Biker Gripper phone mount — my own cell phone mount, made in the USA and sold exclusively through the Law Abiding Biker Store. It's rated for 18 lbs of grip strength, needs no proprietary case, fits the largest of smartphones out there, has built-in vibration dampening, and switches between vertical and horizontal on the fly. I'm running the perch-mount version on this bike, with universal bar mount options also available. Figurati magnetic engine oil dipstick — going on right away. The Law Abiding Biker Store is the top reseller of these in North America, and for good reason: a 2,000-gauss magnet on the tip pulls ferrous metal and debris out of the oil that a filter alone won't catch, so I can pull it anytime and check what's happening inside the motor. Available in stainless steel, black, knurled, and curved styles. Exhaust — multiple options are already on the way for me to test on the PowerPlus 112, with reviews to follow.

In this episode, we take the guesswork out of diagnosing a dead motorcycle battery and charging system with the OptiMate Cranking Power & Alternator Tester. Instead of paying a dealership to troubleshoot the problem or trying to remember how to use a multimeter, this purpose-built tool can test your battery and charging system in about 30 seconds using simple, color-coded indicators. We explain how the newest OptiMate tester works with both lead-acid and lithium batteries and why knowing your battery type matters. SUPPORT US AND SHOP IN THE OFFICIAL LAW ABIDING BIKER STORE We also break down how a motorcycle charging system actually works, including the stator, regulator/rectifier, and battery, before walking through the tester's three simple tests: OFF, START, and RUN. You'll learn what the voltage readings mean, how to determine whether your battery can handle the demands of starting the motorcycle, and how to identify potential charging-system problems such as a failing stator or regulator. We also discuss lithium batteries on newer Harley-Davidson models and share a real-world experience with a lithium battery failure on a 2024 Street Glide. CHECK OUT OUR HUNDREDS OF FREE HELPFUL VIDEOS ON OUR YOUTUBE CHANNEL AND SUBSCRIBE! Finally, we explain how to determine whether your problem is the battery, charging system, or potentially both, along with practical battery-maintenance tips to help extend battery life. We also discuss the Stealthport flush-mount battery tender connection and why keeping your motorcycle on a smart battery tender when it's sitting can help prevent unexpected failures. If you've ever wondered, "Is it my battery or my charging system?" this episode gives you a simple way to find out before you spend money at the dealership.

This is episode 2 of 2.  We take a look back at Ryan's 30 year law enforcement career.  Ryan retired from the Yakima Police Department last July and is now working full time at Law Abiding Biker.  Ryan's path into law enforcement didn't start with a trooper's badge. He began in 1994 as a Reserve Sheriff's Deputy for Yakima County. In 1995 he moved to the Yakima County Department of Security, working courthouse law enforcement duties. On December 11, 1995, he was hired by the Washington State Patrol, graduated the WSP Academy, and was commissioned as a Trooper in July 1996. At the Washington State Patrol Ryan performed normal trooper duties, but also was a Serious Highway Crime Apprehension Team (SHCAT) member, K9 handler, and K9 instuctor. SUPPORT US AND SHOP IN THE OFFICIAL LAW ABIDING BIKER STORE In April of 2006 Ryan lateral transferred to the Yakima Police Department where he spent the majority of his law enforcement career.  In addition to routine patrol officer duties Ryan was a Police Training Officer (PTO), Narcotics K9 handler, Pro Act Team undercover officer, Gang Team member, Safe Streets Task Force Detective, Motors officer, and Motors Instructor. CHECK OUT OUR HUNDREDS OF FREE HELPFUL VIDEOS ON OUR YOUTUBE CHANNEL AND SUBSCRIBE! Across his career, Ryan was voted Officer of the Year by his own squad three times in 2008, 2014, and 2016. He received a Yakima PD commendation in 2008 for going above and beyond for a house fire victim, and recognition the same year for the apprehension of two assault suspects from a 2004 shooting. He was recognized by the DEA (2004) for contributions to drug law enforcement, by the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Eastern District of Washington (2005) for the large-scale "Operation No Mas" investigation, and by the Organized Crime Drug Enforcement Task Forces (2007) for "Operation Intolerance." Over the course of his career, he also authored and executed numerous search warrants. Ryan retired from law enforcement on July 31, 2025, after thirty years of service across multipleWashington agencies. He's now focused full-time on Law Abiding Biker, the motorcycle media branded store he built alongside his law enforcement career.

StealthPort is made right here in the USA, and we're proud to carry them. Ryan has been running one on his own bike for years, and this update video covers the seven new models he's most excited about, plus a full rundown of charging accessories to help you get the most out of whatever port you install. We've added seven new models to the Law Abiding Biker Store, opening up a ton of new options for heated gear, charging, and accessories. If you already own a StealthPort, this video is going to make you want to upgrade. If you're new to it, this is the perfect time to get one. Shop the full StealthPort lineup — all original models and all seven new ones — at the Law Abiding Biker Store. SUPPORT US AND SHOP IN THE OFFICIAL LAW ABIDING BIKER STORE Nothing is being discontinued. The original mid-frame mounts, top mounts, and heat deflector mounts are all still available and still the right choice for a lot of riders — it just depends on what gear you're running. If a single SAE port is all you need, those original models are solid. I ran a single mid-frame mount for years using a Gerbing SAE-to-barrel plug conversion cord from the Law Abiding Biker Store to power my heated gear. It works great. But as you'll see below, the new models open up options that make it hard to go back. One important note: if your bike has heat deflectors, you need the heat deflector mount — not the standard mid-frame. Both are available in the store with full fitment information. CHECK OUT OUR HUNDREDS OF FREE HELPFUL VIDEOS ON OUR YOUTUBE CHANNEL AND SUBSCRIBE! Think through your setup before ordering: Single port, just need to tender and occasionally run one accessory? Original models or the new single heated panels work great. Want dedicated heated gear plug AND a free SAE port? Mid-frame heated panel or top mount single heated panel. Riding two-up with a passenger who also runs heated gear? Dual heated panel top mount. Want maximum SAE flexibility with conversion options? Double top mount. Softail? Coil mount or tank mount depending on your year. Heat deflectors? Make sure you get the heat deflector mount — it's in the store. For pre-2024 Harleys without factory accessory barrel plugs, LAB carries the conversion cord that lets you connect directly to the battery. You're covered regardless of year. And yes — more models will be added over time. Check back at the Law Abiding Biker Store for the latest.

In this episode we explain what is needed and what your options are for adding Ciro lighting to your 2024 and newer Harley-Davidson touring model with the new IFCU infotainment system.  If you own a 2024 or newer Harley-Davidson touring motorcycle and you're looking to upgrade your rear lighting, it's important to understand how the Ciro lighting system works before you start buying parts. Harley's newer electrical architecture changed the game, and that means riders need to know which components are required, how the different products connect, and what options are available for basic or advanced functionality. We break down exactly how Ciro lighting for Harley-Davidson motorcycles works, what products are needed, and how to choose the right setup for your bike. We'll also highlight the individual Ciro products discussed in the video so you can easily link them to the Law Abiding Biker Store. SUPPORT US AND SHOP IN THE OFFICIAL LAW ABIDING BIKER STORE The 2024 and newer Harley-Davidson touring models introduced major changes to the bike's electrical system. Because of those updates, adding aftermarket lights is not as simple as it was on previous Harley-Davidson models. That is why riders need to understand the Ciro system before purchasing. The good news is that Ciro engineered a clean, plug-and-play style solution that works with these newer Harley touring bikes. Once you understand the system, it becomes much easier to plan your lighting build and choose the right components the first time. If you are adding Harley-Davidson rear lighting, improving visibility, cleaning up the rear of the bike, or building a custom look, this guide will help you avoid confusion and get the setup you actually want.

The most important thing to understand is that your first Ciro lighting purchase determines how your system will function moving forward. When adding Ciro lights to a 2024+ Harley-Davidson touring bike, you generally need to choose between: Ciro Lightstrike Commander Ciro Standard Adapter That first decision matters because it determines whether you'll have only basic lighting functionality or full app-based customization and expandability. If you are building out a lighting package for your Harley, this is the foundation of the entire system. The Ciro Lightstrike Commander is the advanced option and is often the best choice for riders who want a more customizable setup. This component acts like the brain of the lighting system. It allows your Ciro lights to integrate with the bike while also unlocking the Ciro Lightstrike app. With the app, you can access more advanced functionality and customize supported lighting products individually. That means the Ciro Lightstrike Commander for Harley-Davidson gives you more than simple run, turn, and brake lighting. It opens up added control over supported lighting features, light behavior, and customization options depending on the products installed on your motorcycle. If you think you may add more Ciro products in the future, the Lightstrike Commander is a smart long-term investment because you only need to buy it once.

Clean fit, quality finish, and customer service that actually answers. We run their gear on our own Harleys because we trust it. The Ciro Standard Adapter is the simpler route for riders who want straightforward lighting without app control or advanced programming and it comes standard within the lighting kits.  If you choose the standard adapter, your supported Ciro lights will provide basic run, turn, and brake functionality. For many riders, that may be enough. If your goal is simply to add visibility and a cleaner rear lighting appearance on your Harley-Davidson, this option can work very well. However, it is important to understand what you are not getting. The standard adapter does not provide access to the app-based Lightstrike features. So if you want greater flexibility, deeper customization, or plan to build a more elaborate lighting system later, the Lightstrike New Patrons: Nick Jackson of Gillette, Wyoming (Patron Member Gary Jackson's son) Tolleigh Capps of New Market, Tennessee Chris Derr of Greenville, Ohio If you are trying to decide which Ciro components to buy, think about your long-term goals for the bike. If you only want basic run, turn, and brake lighting, then the Ciro Standard Adapter may be enough and it's included in the Ciro lighting kits. If you want app-based control, added customization, then the Ciro Lightstrike Commander is the better choice. If you want one of the easiest starting points, the Ciro Filler Panel Lights are especially appealing because they can work in a basic plug-and-play fashion while still allowing for future Lightstrike integration. That is why understanding the system first is so important. It helps you spend money once, buy the right parts, and build your Harley lighting system the way you actually want it.

In this episode we discuss motorcycle tires and tell you the best one, in our opinion.  We have had the opportunity to test many.  Lurch and I talk about the Harley-Davidson OEM Dunlop, Michelin Commander III, American Eagle (now referred to as AE2), and Metzeler CruiseTec (current OEM tire for Indian Motorcycle).  Which one do we think is the best?  Listen and find out.   SUPPORT US AND SHOP IN THE OFFICIAL LAW ABIDING BIKER STORE The Metzeler CruiseTec motorcycle tire delivers a strong balance of grip, stability, and long-distance comfort for riders who want modern performance from a cruiser or touring tire. Designed for heavyweight V-twin motorcycles, the CruiseTec stands out with impressive wet-weather traction and confident cornering characteristics that many riders don't typically expect from a cruiser-focused tire. The dual-compound rear construction helps provide solid mileage while still maintaining excellent edge grip, making the tire feel planted during aggressive riding and smooth during highway touring. Riders often report noticeably improved handling response compared to older-generation cruiser tires, especially on bikes like Harley-Davidson touring models and Indian motorcycles. CHECK OUT OUR HUNDREDS OF FREE HELPFUL VIDEOS ON OUR YOUTUBE CHANNEL AND SUBSCRIBE! Another major strength of the CruiseTec is ride quality and predictability. The tire warms up quickly, tracks well through sweeping turns, and remains stable at freeway speeds even when carrying luggage or a passenger. Road feedback is confidence inspiring without feeling harsh, and the tread pattern does an effective job evacuating water in rainy conditions. While some riders may find that ultra-high-mileage touring tires last slightly longer, the CruiseTec generally earns praise for prioritizing performance and rider confidence without sacrificing durability. For motorcycle enthusiasts who want a tire that combines sporty handling with touring comfort, the Metzeler CruiseTec is widely considered one of the top choices in the V-twin tire category.

Industry observers view Kennedy as a motorcycle-focused executive with deep experience in dealer networks, aftermarket performance products, and brand development.

In this episode, we tackle one of the hottest debates in the Harley-Davidson community: throwaway paper motorcycle oil filters versus reusable motorcycle oil filters. We break down the confusion surrounding micron ratings, nominal versus absolute filtration, and why comparing one filter's numbers to another without context can be misleading. Instead of getting lost in internet comment wars, this episode explains oil filtration in plain biker language so everyday riders can make smarter maintenance decisions with confidence. SUPPORT US AND SHOP IN THE OFFICIAL LAW ABIDING BIKER STORE We also take a close look at two of the most talked-about reusable options on the market: the Figurati and the PC Racing FLO oil filters. From stainless mesh filtration and cooling fins to magnetic debris capture and serviceable designs, we compare what each system brings to the table. We discuss why oil flow matters just as much as filtration, how overly restrictive filters can create problems, and why reusable filters have been trusted in racing and demanding applications for decades. CHECK OUT OUR HUNDREDS OF FREE HELPFUL VIDEOS ON OUR YOUTUBE CHANNEL AND SUBSCRIBE! Finally, we bust the common myth that aftermarket oil filters automatically void your Harley warranty, explaining what federal law and Harley's own warranty language actually say. We also explore the added benefits of inspectable filters, magnetic dipsticks, and building a complete contamination-control system for your motorcycle. Whether you're already running a reusable filter or just curious about making the switch, this episode gives you the facts you need—without the hype—so you can stop stressing over microns and get back to riding.

In this episode, Lurch and I are joined by Patreon Member Matt Haywood and we talk about Firearms Legal Protection.  Being protected by a Firearms Legal Protection plan gives gun owners immediate access to experienced attorneys after a self-defense incident, which is one of the most critical moments to have professional guidance. Instead of scrambling to find legal help while under extreme stress, members can contact a 24/7 emergency hotline and be connected with a lawyer who understands self-defense law. This early legal support can help protect your rights during questioning, prevent costly mistakes, and ensure you navigate the legal system properly from the very beginning. SUPPORT US AND SHOP IN THE OFFICIAL LAW ABIDING BIKER STORE Another major benefit is financial protection against the high costs associated with criminal and civil defense. Legal cases involving firearms can quickly become expensive, with attorney fees, expert witnesses, investigations, and court costs adding up fast. A Firearms Legal Protection plan helps cover these expenses, reducing the financial burden on the member and their family. This allows individuals to focus on their defense and recovery rather than worrying about how to afford a potentially lengthy legal battle. CHECK OUT OUR HUNDREDS OF FREE HELPFUL VIDEOS ON OUR YOUTUBE CHANNEL AND SUBSCRIBE! Beyond legal and financial coverage, these plans also provide peace of mind and education. Members often gain access to training resources, legal insights, and guidance on responsible firearm ownership and use of force laws. Knowing you have a structured plan in place can make a significant difference in confidence and preparedness, helping ensure that if you ever face a self-defense situation, you are not navigating the aftermath alone.

In this episode, we talk about the 2026 Harley-Davidson Limiteds. Harley clearly put a lot of thought into rider and passenger comfort on the 2026 Limited. The redesigned heated seat is one of the first things you notice. It now comes standard with heating for both rider and passenger, and Harley wisely kept physical buttons on the bike for adjusting heat levels instead of burying those controls in menus. That matters in the real world. When it's cold outside, nobody wants to scroll through screens just to warm up. The heated grips are also standard and work very well. Like the seat, they heat up quickly and get legitimately warm on higher settings. SUPPORT US AND SHOP IN THE OFFICIAL LAW ABIDING BIKER STORE The taller windshield worked great for me at 5'8″, allowing me to look right over the top while still getting solid wind protection. Combined with the fairing vent, it did a good job reducing head buffeting. You also get lower fairings with storage and vents, plus fork-mounted air vents that can be adjusted while riding. I really appreciated that Harley made all of these easy to operate by feel without taking your eyes off the road. And yes—having highway pegs standard on a serious touring motorcycle is exactly the kind of thing riders want to see. CHECK OUT OUR HUNDREDS OF FREE HELPFUL VIDEOS ON OUR YOUTUBE CHANNEL AND SUBSCRIBE! The trunk on the 2026 Harley Limited has been redesigned, and I think Harley did a great job with it. It looks better, flows better with the bike, and has a slightly taller design without looking boxy or awkward. Most importantly, it can now fit two helmets inside, which is a huge win for real-world touring and passenger use. Harley didn't just make the trunk bigger for the sake of it. They clearly spent time reshaping it so it would remain sleek while becoming more functional. That said, the integrated brake and turn signal lighting inside the trunk does take up a bit of space, so compared to my detachable trunk setup there is slightly less usable room in certain areas. Even so, fitting two helmets is a meaningful improvement. NEW FREE VIDEOS RELEASED: How To Change Harley Rear Wheel Bearings The Best Motorcycle Road Isn't the Tail of the Dragon – It's This One!
