1. Is that a record? Carl Reese broke a coast to coast record – 2,829-mile LA to NY in 38 hrs, 49 min on his BMW K 1600 GT. Regardless, pulling that off on a Harley no less is awesome!

2. I did a IBA Ride Around Virginia and Ride Around West Virginia. Both on my Deuce. Why? It's the bike i got man. I feel ya brother!

3. The way he sound you would think that he’d have a very large beard until you pick up your phone

4. 17 minutes….if you were asking for a more infuriating time for my record to be broken, you couldn't have done it better. Im coming for it.

5. The only way to listen to this is at 1.5 speed.

6. There's no replacement drivers or rest periods on a bike…. amazing…

7. I think using a cruiser was smart. The little creature comfort of the fairing may have allowed him to hang in there long enough to get some water.

8. if i think of a tipical usa acsent this is what i think off

9. Yes, huge respect!!
   And he described a fair amount of how-to, but not how you can race from coast to coast without getting a single speeding ticket. 😢

10. Motorcycle version of Forrest Gump

11. The voice

12. My favorite VINwiki story. I'm an IBA rider, but this is beyond epic.

13. Most I've done is about 700mi at good speed and it was rough, this is crazy.

14. Who made the fuel cells?

15. The gas isn’t my issue, it’s having to pee 😂

16. Look up the Stampede run that The Horse: Backstreet Choppers used to do. Hard tail choppers from California to North Carolina.

17. I set out two weeks ago for a 1000 mile saddlesore ride (Stock R1250RS), failed miserably. It was my first attempt, but dang… The respect I have for these guys running cross country, insane. I don't think I have another shot till next summer. Videos like this keep the motivation flowing!

18. If I did this I would have friends at gas station stops like on the highway or at red lights… You can definitely do flying refuels and get waters and stuff loaded while moving too so I bet you could cut a lot of time off.

19. woah, hold up, at 3:03 is that a confederate flag patch on his jacket? I have lost all respect for this man. racist trash.

20. Congratulations on an awesome ride! Love your wife’s “show” of enthusiastic support.

    Years back I met a guy at a yearly small bore (125 cc) bike meet called Smokey mountain crawl at deals gap. I started talking to him and he told me he had just arrived to the meet from San Francisco CA. That’s coast to nearly coast on a stock 125cc Honda Grom!

21. Here I am thinking going from Murrells Inlet, S.C., to Bronx, NYC in 10-1/2 hours was fast. We did take 4 20 minute breaks too.

22. This guy is the most American sounding man I’ve ever heard

23. Just checked out that survival kit, gotta make a “keep it under 100” version of the kit that doesn’t have all the expensive land speed record stuff.

24. His wife knew what kind of motivation he needed 😂

25. I imagine on a highway tricked out concours you could crush the record by several hours.

26. Great story! ❤

27. It's Unknown Hinson's long lost son

28. Did he beat the s1000rr guy on a harley? Tank size matters. IMO a fast sport touring bike with a huge 35 gallon extra tank would be ideal.

29. You wouldn’t want to race a sport bike across country it’s to far not for the bike but for the human body. When I was young and bullet proof I rode 15 hours straight at 100+ and when I got to the hotel in Richmond Virginia I couldn’t even sign in at the hotel. 😂 I had to x it legit. 😂 I road 1400 miles straight only stopping for gas and food. I had to stop for gas every 150-200 miles I was on a 1996 ZX750RR.

30. #manlymangoals

31. So is that race not cannonball but musketball??😂

32. This guy did it faster than the guy on the s1000rr?

33. Sport tourer with some custom tanks is probably ideal, be able to do 140+ with way better fuel economy than an Electra glide.

34. never thought Id see the record beat on a cruiser. Thats amazing man.

35. DangI'llTellYouWhatThemDogsBarkin'AllNight

36. Brilliant man.

37. Congratulations to Jacob!

38. Gotta be careful. There's some monster potholes on those freeways.

39. This MF don’t even sound real. Lol that voice is a gift…bro should voiceover.

40. …nobody gonna tell the inbred that 15k is not 1,500 miles? especially since he expressed 2k as being longer than 15k in the same breath?

41. Congratulations!

42. This may sound boring or stupid but we should make a hypermill cannon ball where you try to use the least amount of fuel coast to coast. See what crazy contraptions people put in there car

43. What a fucking legend

44. This is the dude theu baised boomhauer on

45. So if he started in FL then its not a Cannonball. I wonder what this run is actually called.

46. When did Sam Elliott start riding bikes and get young again????

47. Well done @jacobscroggs7079

48. You did not see anything in between then. What a waste of time and resources.

49. ive got an idea to cannonball on christmas eve and christmas morning. it'll be a solo run, in some car that will sustain 180. remove everything thats not NEEDED for safe operation to lighten as much as possible. then add in as much fuel as possible. in the trunk, back and passenger seats. firgue your fuel mileage, have a buddy or 3 with a trailer full of fuel parked under some bridge that you're passsing. say to hell with the cops. the helicopters can only do about 160. and just go balls to the wall non-stop to set an unbeatable record of ~18hrs and some change. then accept the fact that you will be going to jail. i havnt found a way to fool-proof an escape yet.

50. Thats crazy! Congrats!
