All the Way Up – Four Points Ride Part IV
Better late than never, I suppose. Two years after the fact, here's the final installment of the Four Points ride: traveling to Britain's furthest points on a @Harley_UKI Sport Glide
I read the other day that the cost of petrol in some parts of the United Kingdom has hit £2 a liter. That’s $11.25 a gallon, for those of you playing along in the Colonies (EDIT: It’s actually $9.30. See comments section). It is also double what petrol cost two years ago, when I rode a Harley-Davidson Sport Glide to Britain’s furthest points east, west, south and north.  Normally, when I write…

Be aware that this motorcycle recall list is for the United States for the last 30 days, there is no way I could cover the entire world. But in the world of global manufacturing, if a motorcycle is being recalled in one country there is a good chance it is under recall in others. So, safety first. Also, (DISCLAIMER) this should not be considered a definitive list, check for yourself if you have…

Backpack - Kinktober 17
Tumblr media
Summary: You've got a new neighbor.
Pairing: Jax Teller x fem!Reader
Kink: Thigh riding
Warnings: ogling, cocky reader, thigh riding, implied smut
Idea by: @dawn-petrichor-world
Kinktober vs Flufftober 2023
Tumblr media
You were about to spend your Friday night like every Friday night. The bathtub was waiting for you, along with a glass of wine and a book or your vibrator. Whatever would make you fall asleep sooner?
That was until your eyes landed on your new neighbor. A cigarette dangling from his mouth as he watches you. He puffs on the cigarette, inhaling deeply as you watch him with curiosity.
“Who is that?” You crane your neck to get a better look at the man standing across the street. He flips the cigarette away and nods in your direction. “What is he up to?” Licking your lips, you watch the man turn around. He uses a remote control to open the garage. 
“That’s the new neighbor. I think his name is Teller,” you dip your head to glance at your neighbor, Patsy. If anything happens in your neighborhood, Patsy is the person you go to. She knows everything about everyone. “I think he’s a biker or something.”
“A biker.” Oh, your Friday night just got interesting. Your new neighbor rolls his bike backward out of the garage. “Maybe our little neighborhood gets a bit more interesting now.”
“I hope he doesn’t throw loud parties and lure more bikers in,” Patsy wrinkles her nose as the bike roars to life.
“Don’t judge a book by its cover,” you tut. Your eyes are glued to your new neighbor’s bike. You always had a thing for bikes. Sadly, you never were brave enough to ride a bike. You always chickened out.
“That monster is loud, and stinks,” she points at the bike. “I will make a note and talk to the other neighbors about that…uh…”
“It’s a Harley-Davidson Dyna Super Glide Sport,” you roll your eyes as she takes notes. “If you want to complain about it, you should know its name.” 
Tumblr media
Two weeks later you’re watching your neighbor again. Watching him became your newest hobby. Whenever he works on his bike or prepares to go on a ride, you watch him.
Today you pretend to water your roses as he rolls his bike out of the garage. All you know about the mysterious man haunting your dreams is his name. Jax Teller. 
You sigh as you imagine becoming his backpack. Your legs and arms slung around his body while you go on a ride with him.
“Maybe I should talk to him,” you say to yourself. If you want your fantasies to come true, you must talk to him eventually. “I can do this.”
Placing the watering can on the ground you take a deep breath.
You’re wearing your favorite summer dress and light makeup. Usually, you don’t wear this kind of outfit at home, but you want to impress your new neighbor.
You cheer yourself up while walking toward your neighbor. He sits on his bike, smoking a cigarette. His eyes are glued to you step toward him and his bike.
“Hi.”
“Hi,” he replies, smirking as you put one hand on your hips, and push your tits out. “I’m Jax. Your new neighbor.”
“I know,” you take the cigarette out of his hand to take a puff. You try not to cough, not used to smoking. “I like your bike.”
“Thanks,” Jax grins. He’s got a lot of women fawning all over him and wonders if you are different. “What’s your name? I didn’t get it.”
“It’s Y/N,” stepping closer to his bike you run your fingertips over the handlebars. “Excuse me, but…can I go for a ride?” You look him straight in the eyes, holding his intense gaze as you try not to show that you’re nervous as hell.
“Sure baby,” he grins. “Let me get a helmet.”
“Oh,” you move your hand to his thigh, gently squeezing it, “I didn’t mean the bike.” 
He inhales sharply, but his eyes darken. “You’re a bold one,” Jax smirks darkly. “How about we go on a ride with my Harley, and you can get that ride later…”
Tumblr media
Just as promised, Jax took you on a ride. You enjoyed every minute. It was just like you always imagined. Wild, and free.
But your night didn’t end when he drove back inside his garage. 
Jax didn’t let you chicken out. He took you to his home, whispering filthy words in your ear as you tried not to pounce on him right on the front porch.
Now, in his bedroom you watch him sit on his bed as he watches you like a hawk in return. 
“I want you to take off your panties,” Jax demands. He holds out his hand and clicks his tongue when you take too long. “No thinking. Take off your panties and come here.”
His voice raspy voice goes straight to your core. “Okay.” You breathe out as you move your hands under your dress to shove your panties down your legs. You step out of your panties and pick them up.
“Come here,” he pats his thigh. “I want you to go on the ride of your life,” Jax smirks as you place your panties in his hands. He presses the fabric to his nose, inhaling deeply. “Your pussy smells so good.”
You make an odd noise. No man ever told you that your pussy smells good. “How? I mean…”
“Take what you want.” Jax points at his lap, but you have other plans. You straddle his lap and grip his shoulder for balance. 
“I wanna ride,” you wrap one arm around his shoulders, “your thigh. It looks so inviting.”
He laughs and throws his head back. “Go ahead, baby. When you are done, I’m going to ride your pussy until you beg me to stop.”
Ignoring his mocking tone, you sit on his thigh and wiggle your hips.
“You’re mine,” you purr against his lips as you try to find the perfect position. 
When you feel comfortable on top of Jax, you slowly start rocking back and forth on his thigh. It feels good, and sinful at the same time. Jax is a stranger to you, but here you are eagerly riding his thigh.
“Yeah, fuck yourself on my leg, sweetness. I want you to make yourself cum. Rub that pretty clit,” he breathes against your lips. “Fuck, me baby. Come on.”
“Ah,” you whine loudly as you drag your pussy over Jax’s leg. “Fuck. This feels so good. I’m gonna soak your pants.”
“Do it,” Jax’s breathing quickens. “I want to be a good girl and soak my pants and thigh. I want to smell like your cunt.”
 Jax grips your hips, now guiding your movement to get you off as fast as possible. Your moans turn into cries, and he smirks. 
He knows you are going to be his after tonight. Jax can hardly wait to ruin your pussy thoroughly.

I'll try to get a better backdrop soon but for now these are just photos I took to send to friends.
The motorcycle is a Maisto Harley Davidson, 2004 Dyna Super Glide Sport (mouthful). The Maisto 1:12 Harleys are a decent size for Body-kun (they're a bit big for Body-chan to actually use but that's actually realistic for someone who's about 5'4, speaking as someone who's 5'4.)

As the Rolling Stones said, paint it black, because nothing looks quite as good against the extravagant chrome plating of this gorgeous 1951 Harley-Davidson FL. It’s a real stunner of a Panhead, restored with terrific care by an expert in Harley-Davidson history, with all work done to the highest standards. This machine has the perfect combination of paint and accessories, lending an Elvis Presley swagger to this marvelous big twin Hydra-Glide from the chrome-plated fender trim, toolbox and oil tank, front fender lamp, rear luggage rack and true dual exhaust, right down to the chrome studs and badges on the Royalite saddlebags. This 1951 FL is rock ‘n’ roll personified—the early 1950s, slightly dangerous, leather-clad variety, or perhaps even the Gene Vincent or pre-military Elvis variety. And all that black and chrome is perfectly set off by the whitewall tires, a necessary period touch.
The 1951 FL was a genuine 100 MPH motorcycle with a nominal 74/55 HP engine (actually 73.71 CI and 1208cc). With a solid 4-speed gearbox and tough-as-nails clutch, the 588-pound machine could be hurtled along America’s newly built highways far faster than most cars in an era when motorcycles were mostly used for pleasure in the United States. Touring in high style was the name of the Panhead game, and motels sprang up across the country to cater to newly affluent citizens curious about the landscape or simply itching to get out of town after a tough work week. It would be two years before a big, black motorcycle would be seen as an object of menace as depicted in “The Wild One,” but inflammatory stories and staged photos of bikers running amok were already published without much recourse to fact in newspapers and magazines across the country. For 1951, this glorious machine would still have been seen for what it is: a magnificent sport touring motorcycle dressed in high style

Harley-Davidson Enthusiast Collection Introduces Fast Johnnie
Tumblr media Tumblr media
High-Performance 1960s and ‘70s Muscle Cars Inspires Limited-Edition Trio of Motorcycles. Harley-Davidson celebrates muscle car culture and its racing heritage with the introduction of Fast Johnnie, the 2023 addition to the Enthusiast Motorcycle Collection of limited run bikes featuring factory-direct custom paint and graphic treatments. Executed in Celestial Blue with white racing stripes, this special Enthusiast Collection paint scheme is offered factory-installed for three 2023 Harley-Davidson models: the Low Rider® ST, the Street Glide® ST and the Road Glide® ST motorcycles, with combined production limited to no more than 2,000 models globally.
Tumblr media
Enthusiast Motorcycle Collection models celebrate Harley-Davidson riders and are inspired by their stories and legacies. The Fast Johnnie paint scheme taps into iconic design themes featured on high-performance muscle cars and pony cars of the 1960s and 1970s – contrasting “racing” or “rally” striping over a bold base colour, and a clever or symbolic character or logo incorporated into the graphics package. Both elements served to create an obvious visual difference between the high-performance version of a car and the standard version of the same model. The Fast Johnnie character applied to the left side of the fuel tank also appears on the Harley-Davidson® Screamin’ Eagle® factory team motorcycles raced in the MotoAmerica King of the Baggers series. It was inspired by the story of a piglet named Johnnie adopted in 1920 by Harley-Davidson racer and member of the infamous “Wrecking Crew,” Ray Weishaar, which became a team mascot. The piglet often perched on a motorcycle fuel tank for a post-race victory lap and is usually cited as the source of the “Hog” moniker that to this day is often applied to anything Harley-Davidson.
Tumblr media
“The striping graphic effect is a powerful signal to the generation that came of age during this era, and is still impactful today,” said Brad Richards, Harley-Davidson Vice President of Design and Creative Director. “The Celestial Blue base colour selected for Fast Johnnie recalls a popular tone from the muscle car era. For the graphic striping, we created a custom white colour formulated to authentically reflect the era, executed in a classic thin-wide-thin pattern on the sides and top of the motorcycle bodywork. The look is a nod to pure Americana.” On the tank and front fender “Harley-Davidson” script replaces one of the thin stripe elements. Depending on the motorcycle model, the striping is applied to the front and rear fenders, the fuel tank top and sides, the front of the fairing and the side covers and saddlebags. The Enthusiast Motorcycle Collection logo is on the rear fender.
Tumblr media
Low Rider® ST Fast Johnnie Enthusiast Motorcycle Collection Strap down your bedroll and make a run for the border. The Harley-Davidson® Low Rider® ST model is an American V-Twin sport-touring bike for the rider who digs clean-and-lean West Coast style and craves the outrageous performance of the Milwaukee-Eight® 117 V-Twin powertrain. The Low Rider® ST model connects these riders with pure Harley-Davidson attitude. Mechanical features are identical to the 2023 Low Rider® ST model. Special Styling Features - Celestial Blue with custom white detailing - Enthusiast Collection logo on rear fender - Graphic on both sides of the fuel tank – Fast Johnnie on left, Bar & Shield on right
Tumblr media
Street Glide® ST Fast Johnnie Enthusiast Motorcycle Collection Elevated pro-touring bagger performance and style for the rider who just can’t get enough of either. The Street Glide® ST model pairs the muscular Milwaukee-Eight® 117 powertrain with tough West Coast styling influences and new dark-and-bronze finishes topped off with Screamin’ Eagle® exhasut. Undiminished comfort and the iconic batwing fairing appeal to the traditionalist mindset. Meet the new breed of speed and style from Harley-Davidson. Mechanical features are identical to the 2023 Street Glide® ST model.
Tumblr media
Road Glide® ST Fast Johnnie Enthusiast Motorcycle Collection The sleek Road Glide® ST model projects more menace than ever and backs it up with the street-scorching power of the Milwaukee-Eight® 117 powertrain along with Screamin’ Eagle® exhaust. West Coast styling elements and black-and-bronze finishes set this bike apart from the performance bagger crowd. Legendary comfort and the “sharknose” fixed fairing appeal to a rider who wants to make quick work of the open road. Mechanical features are identical to 2023 Road Glide® ST model. Road Glide ST and Street Glide ST Special Styling Features - Celestial Blue with custom white detailing - Screamin’ Eagle® exhaust - Enthusiast Motorcycle Collection logo on rear fender - Graphic on both sides of the fuel tank – Fast Johnnie on left, Bar & Shield on right - Harley-Davidson® Genuine Motor Parts & Accessories offers colour-matched King Tour-Pak® luggage carrier, Chopped Tour-Pak® luggage carrier, and saddlebag speaker lids.

Vehicle Hold Control on the Harley-Davidson Street Glide ST
You can't move it backwards when you put the parking brake on because your legs aren't strong enough you can move it forwards because you're powering through it with so much torque you can put it into the Kia our son had and is going to go just as fast as it used to you don't know how to use a parking brake and you don't know it's a parking brake it's very strange to us but they put all these damn weird doodads on there and people can't figure out the bike it weighs too much the frame waste too much all the junk on their way too much this trip it down it's 200 lb lighter and a little bit safer and she got it though my son said I'm going to weigh 400 lb at 6'5 roughly and he probably will a little bit more maybe it's still twice as much wait and I will not ride ones are too dangerous do not mean to do that I didn't design them to do that I designed to be light and agile and something that people can handle because he needs to use balance you need to move your body around not everyone's in acrobat and she smiles and says wow I can't figure this thing out it's a piece of s*** it's too heavy has she heard about the hand of God it's starting to make bikes like that and she said there's a lot of 250s by the Chinese and they're one cylinder and if you know how to sync them you're in business I guess it's not like a 500 it's like a 750 and a sport bike too for some reason put them together it's like 40 horsepower and 50 ft lb of torque but the bike only weighs 350 lb now if I worked out a little I could bench press that I can easily squat it and I can lift it up but really these bikes wiegh so much so she says wow. But really if you do that with the bike the motors and it's going to go a new hard knock cuz it's decent tires and shocks about so the same a lot for 500 miles an hour and so she had to do it she don't set a sinking a little bit and she's doing it and she had built one before and got about 380 out of it now she's saying it's the original company but you build a new one so she's trying to get it going and a lot of people are they can't stand these bikes and they can't stand people who ride them they're obnoxious and rude and assholes they wipe out all the time they fall over all the time and it's not abnormal if they're supposed to and we're supposed to ride them and demons have trouble and it's 500 lb is still a huge pain in the ass and we're powerful the kraken rides them but the kraken in human form is like 8 ft tall and can rip fire hydrants out of the ground so if you can do that feel free to ride a Harley-Davidson with big motor and the new motor is ridiculously huge it has so much weight to it it's stupid I mean the damn thing is armored but so what you can't write it and the gear crankcase is not
Thor Freya
They're making the new ones and the big ones in their idiots and they're laughing and joking and a friend here said you take the motor and you put it into a kit car and he put it into a lot of size vehicle and it's going to go 800 miles an hour and we recommend that size so it doesn't stress the motor a Lamborghini kit the smaller one is real good it looks real and if you use a VW chassis I mean these things are kind of fly and the Volkswagen motor does not work as well so if you have a vehicle it's like a super car and the motor is toast you put a Harley-Davidson motor in it and it's going to work and it sounds radical we're going to go ahead and do this

FAQs
Q: What factors should I consider when choosing a bike for long-distance riding?
A: When selecting a bike for long rides, several factors should be taken into account. These include comfort, performance, reliability, fuel efficiency, luggage capacity, and riding position. Comfort is paramount for extended periods in the saddle, so look for bikes with ergonomic designs, plush seating, and wind protection. Additionally, consider the bike's power delivery, handling characteristics, and fuel range to ensure it meets your performance needs for long journeys.
Q: What are the essential accessories for long-distance riding?
A: Essential accessories for long-distance riding include luggage systems (such as saddlebags and top cases) to carry gear and supplies, a comfortable seat for extended hours of riding, windshields or fairings for wind protection, heated grips or gloves for cold weather, and navigation devices to help you stay on course. Additionally, protective gear such as helmets, jackets, pants, and boots should always be worn to ensure safety on the road.
Q: How can I prepare myself and my bike for a long-distance ride?
A: Proper preparation is key to a successful long-distance ride. Start by ensuring your bike is in good mechanical condition, with regular maintenance performed and any potential issues addressed. Pack essential tools, spare parts, and emergency supplies, and familiarize yourself with basic roadside repairs. Plan your route in advance, considering factors such as road conditions, fuel stops, and accommodations. Finally, make sure you're physically prepared by staying hydrated, well-rested, and wearing appropriate riding gear.
Q: What are some tips for staying comfortable during long rides?
A: Staying comfortable during long rides is essential for enjoying the journey. Start by wearing moisture-wicking, breathable clothing to stay cool and dry, and layer up for changing weather conditions. Take regular breaks to stretch, hydrate, and rest your muscles, and adjust your riding position as needed to relieve pressure points and prevent fatigue. Consider investing in ergonomic accessories such as seat cushions, handlebar risers, and footpeg extenders to improve comfort on the bike.
Q: How can I improve fuel efficiency during long rides?
A: Improving fuel efficiency during long rides can help you maximize your mileage and extend your range between fuel stops. To achieve better fuel economy, maintain a steady speed and avoid rapid acceleration or deceleration. Keep your bike well-maintained, with clean air filters, properly inflated tires, and regular oil changes. Additionally, consider aerodynamic modifications such as windshield adjustments or fairing upgrades to reduce wind resistance and improve efficiency at higher speeds.
Q: How can I prevent fatigue during long rides?
A: Fatigue can be a significant concern during long rides, but there are several strategies to help prevent it. Start by maintaining proper posture and ergonomics on the bike to reduce strain on your muscles and joints. Take regular breaks every hour or so to stretch, hydrate, and rest your eyes. Stay hydrated and nourished by drinking plenty of water and consuming small, healthy snacks throughout the ride. Consider using cruise control or throttle locks to give your hand and wrist muscles a break on straight stretches of road. Finally, listen to your body and don't hesitate to pull over and take a longer break if needed.
Q: What are the best bikes for riders with a passenger on long rides?
A: When riding with a passenger on long journeys, it's essential to choose a bike that offers comfort, stability, and ample carrying capacity. Touring motorcycles with spacious seating, adjustable suspension, and integrated luggage systems are ideal for two-up riding. Look for bikes with a relaxed riding position, supportive passenger accommodations, and sufficient power to handle the additional weight. Additionally, consider models with features such as heated seats, backrests, and adjustable footpegs to enhance passenger comfort during extended rides.
Q: How should I pack for a long-distance motorcycle trip?
A: Packing efficiently and strategically can make a significant difference in your comfort and enjoyment during a long-distance motorcycle trip. Start by prioritizing essential items such as riding gear, tools, and spare parts, and pack them in easily accessible locations for quick access on the road. Use soft-sided luggage options such as saddlebags, tank bags, and tail bags to maximize carrying capacity while maintaining balance and aerodynamics. Organize your gear by frequency of use, with items you'll need during stops or emergencies easily accessible. Finally, distribute weight evenly and securely to maintain stability and handling throughout the journey.
Q: How can I plan a long-distance motorcycle trip on a budget?
A: Planning a long-distance motorcycle trip on a budget requires careful consideration of expenses and resources. Start by setting a realistic budget that includes costs such as fuel, accommodations, meals, and incidental expenses. Look for budget-friendly lodging options such as campgrounds, hostels, or budget motels, and consider alternatives such as couch surfing or staying with friends or family along the route. Save money on food by packing snacks and cooking meals at campgrounds or picnic areas. Take advantage of free or low-cost attractions and activities along the way, such as scenic overlooks, parks, or historical sites. Finally, consider sharing expenses with fellow riders by carpooling or sharing accommodations to reduce costs further.

Az új Street Glide® és Road Glide® modellek, amelyekben az új Milwaukee-Eight 117 motorblokk dübörög, erőteljesebbek, kényelmesebbek és könnyebbek, mint valaha. A legmodernebb technológiával szerelték fel őket, ideértve az új infotainment rendszert is, mindezt egy drámaian új formatervezéssel karöltve. A Custom Vehicle Operations™ (CVO™) 25. évfordulóját megünneplő új CVO™ Road Glide® ST kiemelkedik a hot rod bagger teljesítményével, köszönhetően az erőteljes új Milwaukee-Eight® 121 HO (High-Output) blokknak és az extrém alacsony áttételezésű váltóműnek, amelyek együttesen olyan gyorsulást és középtartományú tolóerőt eredményeznek, amire a dinamikus, sportos motorosok vágynak. Az új CVO™ Pan America® is napvilágot látott, mint az első kaland-túramotor, a CVO™ modellcsalád szegmensben, amely bármilyen akadály legyőzésére készen áll, amiben a gazdag, prémium alapfelszereltség segíti, mindezt exkluzív fényezéssel kiegészítve. Minden 2024-es modell tervezett érkezése a hivatalos Harley-Davidson® márkakereskedésekbe márciusig várható.„Ezek az izgalmas modellek egy új korszakot képviselnek a Harley-Davidson® számára, amelyek a következő szintre emelik a motorok teljesítményét és technológiáját, valamint azok kényelmét és stílusát.” – mondta Jochen Zeitz, a Harley-Davidson® elnöke és vezérigazgatója. „Kétségtelenül ezek a legcsábítóbb túramotorok, amelyeket valaha kínált a Harley-Davidson®.” Új 2024-es Street Glide® és Road Glide® modellek A 2024-es Street Glide® és Road Glide® erőteljesebbek, könnyebbek és dinamikusabbak elődjeiknél, míg az új formatervezési elemek összetéveszthetetlen, dinamikus dizájnt teremtenek az első sárvédőktől az oldaldobozokig.
