  1. I know that feeling, hope all goes well in the healing,
  2. congrats, is a big step to solo,
  3. They are free, guy at work bought a hd and got 2 sets of mufflers with it, along with the aftermarkets on it. But I also have a bid on some 2000 road kings on ebay. Hope I don't get them now, unless the road kings are better.
  4. Have been offered a set of 99 hd electraglide mufflers, how hard are they to make fit? Is it even feasible? Any advantage as to mileage? Thanks

    83 wow

    I have both, 83 1st gen and 08 2nd gen, am finding I may leave 08 at home, a lot, just a completely different bike. Wife has even commented about the difference. And I don't think mine is really running 100%, plus repairing after deer strike, need gold fairing.
  7. It has nothing to do with being a girl, have seen many guys not even attempt their oil change, take to dealer. Won't do anything mechanical or where they might get dirty. Keep it up!
  8. Sounds just like my 08, most of those warning lights are not that accurate, my truck will run another 100 mi., my car about 50 mi. Was a little disturbed when it first happened, to me it is not worth fretting about.
  9. came up fine, but what a load, no idea what they have,
  10. Also old mech, NIASE certified, books I have are still saying use c-clamp or other device to push piston back. Have seen too many people lose brakes from broken hose after using vise grip, not smart enough to realize not to pinch thru, hate seeing anyone open bleeders if they don't understand air in lines also, will check with some buddies still doing repair to see what they are doing up here.
  11. and when you pinch off the line with a needle nose vice grip, you damage the hose to cause failure in the future, that is not an accepted practice in the automotive repair field,
  12. men were from denver http://www.keloland.com/NewsDetail6162.cfm?Id=0,81949
  13. We will wait and see where these guys came from, locals or otherwise, many in Sioux Falls think the small towns are Barney Fifes. Too bad!! http://www.keloland.com/NewsDetail6162.cfm?Id=0,81928

    3 wheels

    was 31,000 euro in 07, plus tax, transport, but not certified for USA then only 650cc tho
  15. Picked up my 08 for 14,500 Saturday
  16. Took my first ride Sat. picked up new bike and rode 70 mi. Starting temp was 35 and ending temp was 22, nice and refreshing. Couldn't leave it at the dealer. '08 black cherry 3350 mi, full 5 yr warranty yet. :mo money:
  17. Try -29 with out windchill if you want cold, have an extra bed here for any that want to give this cold a try!
  18. Overall ok, bumps, bruises, broken right big toe and index finger. What a combo!! Came up out of ditch and run across in front of me, no time to brake, just hit it in the neck. 4 pointer. No more trips this year.
  19. Will Have to hold off on the diff., hit deer this morning. Will see what is broke and make determination after ins. co. gets done with me.
  20. Should only need the final drive, the rest seems ok. How much? Let me know, thanks May have a quiet bike.
  21. Still have the rearend / differential? Mine went 5k with 2 tablespoons of oil!!
  22. Got back from "the Hills" yesterday, had a blast. Should be able to got to the rally next year. Would love to get a M&E going for then. Saw 2 Ventures while we were there, one like mine, twice, but couldn't get his attention, and I think an 87 blue one in Keystone. Gave him a thumbs up and told him my 83 was up the block. Was over 1000 mi. in 3 days. Rain and bad wind coming home. But an awesome time.
