    Check your tires!!

    On my way to Sturgis, blow out at 140 kph (about 87 mph). Didn't lay it down. Wasn't my time I guess. When I left on the trip tires seemed good. Be careful out there.

    For Sale Center stand from '07 Classic

    Selling my center stand from my Classic. I never used it so I took it off. It was on the bike when I bought it, it is a Rivco. Shipping will be expensive (kinda heavy :) ). I am not sure of the value how about $150 OBO. It does have some wear marks as per the pics. You must pay the shipping.

    Loud "smack" and it doesn't start

    Loud "smack" and it doesn't start

    Hey everyone , finally got a chance to putter around with my bike during all the craziness that is this pandemic. Last year I installed a keyless system (thank you DEcosse) and it worked great even though I find out I hooked up the wrong wire. This year I install a new battery it starts up fine...

    Issues with Batwing fairing on R3

    As you can see I also have a Corbin fairing, not sure if the lowers that came on my bike make any difference. I don't have a buffeting issue, but I did notice a change last year when I replaced my windshield and got a slightly shorter one. I will be switching back to the original height...

    Fork seal madness - need sanity check

    Yep, that is probably what has happened. I am not sure how if at all it has affected the ride, or cornering etc. I will check it out more closely this riding season. Thanks for the heads up.

    Fork seal madness - need sanity check

    I had my fork seals changed last year but I noticed that they (the forks) seemed "softer". Is it me, is that normal or is there an adjustment somewhere? Any FYI would be great.
