    I am wondering who is going to the WNY rally in August? Hoping to put together a caravan of Michigan riders to mess with some Canadian customs agents Let's make a plan of attack.

    What's next Painterman? Looks like I may have 1 dry day this week to find a target.

    @adventurer 08 Looks good, what's the next target?

    If that 80 tire is the same width as the 155-80-15 BF Goodrich TA Radial I put on the rear it will be fine. It lower the rear almost 1" and brought the Speedo closer to being correct. http://www.miata.net/garage/tirecalc.html input both the stock size & the one you have now, it will show you the differences in size.

    If the photo flies, next target is...... In honor of Independence Day, you your bike & fireworks in the sky.

    Was your frog named Caytlin by any chance? You did say he became a she!

    For those that can't afford braided lines, the stock RSTD cables will give you the extra length to stop the binding on a RSV.

    Rain X causes warts on frogs !! It should only be used when riding in the desert, you don't want to harm our amphibian friends do you?

    You can lighten it but nothing you can do once the stain has penetrated the rubber. Paint or replace.

    Like the 2 above said. When in a group ride the lead bike with the help of a tailgunner,has the responsibility to lead the group safely to their destination, depending on the road/traffic conditions he may have felt it unsafe to pull over. I have seen the situation you described even during some of our VRO group rides. Often it's a mix of experienced and novice riders that can create the rubber band effect putting large holes in the group,, that's a rider problem, NOT a Harley problem. Courtesy is optional and often an unknown trait on the roads of America. Like Puc said, all those bikes paid their road tax and have every right to be there.

    It's good to have friends Lot's done, now maybe you'll ride it finally Here it's been non-stop wrenching for weeks both mowers down, needed new wiper motor in the Buick. New fork springs, repack head & swingarm bearings, new Commander II tire on front & BF Goodrich TA Radial 155/80-15 on rear. Now 1 rear cylinder is not firing . I think the tractor is now done, coil, points& condenser, fuel pump, valves adjusted. Wiper motor on Buick done. Waiting on parts for push mower

    It's really the only explanation for the symptoms. Most likely is either at the fairing mount bracket or steering stop. Did you add any screws that may have pierced a wire?
  19. ragtop69gs
    Pinched wire somewhere?
  20. ragtop69gs
    Damn!!! I was at one today on the bike, forgot all about the target 😕
  21. ragtop69gs
    Of course you can, don't matter what you ride .

    I never really liked them till after Carbon One got T-boned on the trike several years ago, when I saw the way all his belongings were spread out all over the field where his bike came to rest, I changed my mind on using the Star tour pack liner. I now keep my electronic and other items I don't want lost in there. I also use 1 saddle bag liner to keep all my foul weather gear in.

    The extended swing arm is to help keep the front wheel down on hard acceleration.
