Your experience matches mine exactly. They squeal and growl and won't wear out. I use the front more than the rear and they show no wear at, but the rear appear to be about 1/2 worn out.

I hit a patch of ice while changing lanes the other day, I was surprised when I slid a couple of inches. I rode pretty slow the rest of the way to work.

Sorry to hear about your wreck. You haven't had this bike long have you? I'm glad you and your wife are ok.
-
I'm glad you asked. I wonder about that too. Nothing stinks worse than burning rubber, and I try to get every last bit of wear out of my tires. When I was young I used to love to jump bikes and ride wheelies, but both of those things take a little bit of skill, unlike melting a tire. I'll keep watching this thread to see if anyone can shed some light.

I thought I knew, but no

Those new models are nice to look at and fun to play with, but they require a lot of maintenance, develop leaks and make a lot of noise when they get low on fuel.

I bought the same kit and had the same problem. I got the wires through, but it was such a squeeze I was afraid it would short out. I ended up uninstalling it. It's in my junk drawer in the kitchen.

Not saying it's not a great plan, but why don't you tow your own bike down instead of renting? I'm just curious.

I just bought a tire for the rear of my RSTD. I read many posts before I finally dEecided. I read good and bad about all of them. The only tires most people agreed on were Bridgestones (nobody liked them). I finally decided on Elite III. I've ridden on it a few hundred miles and really like it. It doesn't roar in turns like the Bridgestone that was on it when I got the bike. I have ridden this bike only a few thousand miles, so I don't have a lot of feedback (I bought it used late Sept.), but that's my personal experience.

You're not going to share it with the rest of us?

While it was cold I changed to Flanders bars with more pull back. I got a chance to ride for 3 hours today and had no shoulder pain. This is the first time I've ridden over an hour on this bike without that sharp pain. Hopefully it's fixed...

I wish I could take Jake with me, but he's a 70 lb. Lab and he doesn't like to sit still... What kind of bike is he riding?
-
I would just put the pipes on and try it out. I plugged my AIS, but it made no difference, so I unplugged them. A friend of mine has the Barons. You'll love 'em. Jim

I bought a tiny remote at Home Depot. It has visor clip on it already. I used some double side tape and stuck a strip from an inner tube inside the clip. I slip the clip over the lower LH side of my windshield. You don't even notice it unless you're really looking for it. It's easy to reach and it works great. Of course if you can't find a remote that wouldn't work, but surely someone sells a remote for your opener.

I rode about 10 miles on an errand. It was pretty nice here in the 40s, but I didn't have a lot of free time to ride.

No, they're not linked.

He'll live. I've getting around in Fords for years. What don't kill you makes you stronger.

"Happy Holidays" is a very nice greeting. I don't see why people get their panties in a wad because they don't say it to suit them.
-
I like it. It's very easy to navigate, loads quickly and looks professional.

He looks just like Jake did a couple of years ago. I don't hunt but I made the mistake teaching Jake to fetch. Just a note the way you teach a Lab to fetch is to throw something. Anyway a ball or Frisbee to Jake is like crack to a junky. He will chase a ball until he dies unless you stop throwing it. Then he'll stand like a statue staring at the ball until you throw it again. I had Jake on a leash one day over at my neighbor's. I wasn't paying much attention to him as I was talking to the neighbor. I didn't know that the neighbor's grandson played T-ball and was behind me getting ready to hit a ball off of the tee, but Jake did. I heard a SMACK! and then my arm pulls almost out of it's socket as Jake took off for the ball. All I know is if Tom is out of the blind as fast as the Lab, he needs to enter the olympics. Oh, beautiful pup by the way.

In the mid 90s when I first got on the internet, a neighbor was showing me how to get connected and he said "never ever put where you are in your profile". he made it sound so ominous that for years I didn't. Others have peobably been given that kind of warning too. Especially with the fear mongering going on the last few years. I'm from East Tennessee too(Knoxville). When I joined this group, I tried to find some riding buddies on here by looking at the profiles and found (the same as you did) that many didn't list their city.

Merry Xmas everyone.... and God bless us every one.

I was really wanting a Royal Star. I test rode an '05 and it whined so bad I was having second thoughts. A couple of weeks later I rode an identical '05 and it had no whine at all. They both had about 4,000 miles on the odometer. I bought the second one on the spot. Every now and then I hear a slight whine, but I have to be listening closely.
