Tough to say. Weather has been cold and/or rainy for the past week and will stay that way a few more days. I work on my bikes outside, so it could be a week or so.

Thanks for asking!
I love your videos and I love your voice. I don't want to sound like I'm coming on to you. That is not the case. I just want to see more progress.

Thanks Max! If only the weather, my job, and my involvement with my Boy Scout Troop didn't get in the way...

I have enjoyed and liked all 4 videos thus far and look forward to many more.

So you need a 7/16" socket to remove the Harley battery strap, and a 10mm socket to remove the terminal connecting bolts from the original Harley battery. Its going to be a PIA if its like that for the rest of the bike, going back and forth from imperial to metric.

Wow in my world that seems viral. In 14 years I've never had anything viewed that many times. Well done bud.

I certainly wouldn't consider it viral, but this video is getting some pretty good traction. It's now up to roughly 6,500 views and is getting 480 new views every 24 hours.

Twelve hours later and it's up to 7,052 views. Maybe I'm on to something here.

Edit: Now at 8,036.

A job well done:

Your videos are entertaining, funny, and keep viewers watching them from one segment to another. They make us want not to click the stop button because you are unpretentious in your narrative. They are clever because they take into account that our ability to focus for more than 20 seconds on the web is a fact.

Not at all a PIA. I've got a pretty comprehensive tool arsenal. It's a bit entertaining going back and forth from SAE to metric, but really doesn't add any appreciable difficulty or time to the job.

If it were an old Brit bike you would have to mix whitworth into the arsenal.

I'd like to think that its the MV members/lurkers/associates/groupies/wannabes who have given you a leg up on this viewership, because we are such nice people.

I'm grateful for any support MV members have given me/my channel. I'm convinced most of my views have come from you, Max and Miguel. 8)

No worries NightWing; working on the carb and gas tank now. The video will be up... soon I hope.

And, the last video is now up to 9,076 views!

Congrats JP. There must be many others viewing you videos. I've only watched a couple.

You may be right Sledge. And to those MV'ers that have, thanks. The video in question now has over 18,000 views.

The channel now has 1,300,000, and over 8,000 subscribers - many of them MV'ers.

Much appreciated.
