  1. I run 40 in the front and 42 rear, yes pull all the weights and re-balance or use dyna beads.
  2. Thanks for the response guys, will be on the road in the morning. Thanks again.
  3. I'm helping a friend fix up a 96 4 piper and if some could post some pic's on how the muffler mounting brackets mount to the frame and mufflers I would sure appreciate it. The guy before welded drag pipes to the header pipes and the muffler mounts are due in tomorrow. Thanks for your time.....
  4. What was the question???? A pin hole will cause some poping on decel, but these bikes are prone to poping.... So, did I stump you with an answer??
  5. They are just there to keep the buzzing to a minimum. I've never road without them, so can yea or nay.
  6. I put a HD faring on my Roadstar, has the same windshield brackets as the early Royals. Go to www.roadstarclinic.com and in their tech section they have pic's on how to do it. I checked out that route and then did my own thing. Once you get the fairing in hand you can tell what you need to do, took me two months of procrastinating. Once I started I was done in a day and a half. Good luck on the project.....
  7. Yes there are some on Ebay, but you can make your own in about a half hour, from the photos on this site. I made mine out of flat stock from Lowe's 2"W X 1/8" T. I'm sure someone here will put the link in for you or just do a search.
  8. Just sent mine in, 05 RSTD, $84........ must keep the food stamps going as the roads out here don't see it.
  9. For $10 Harbor Freight make a pipe expander set and that makes it easy to slip on, just do a little at a time...
  10. My son lives in Canon City and says somedays the smoke is like fog, he's 40 miles from the Spings. Do go back as it's a great area...
  11. Do you know the history of the bike, like last time clutch was replaced if at all???
  12. Have never done this, but they have a rubber o-ring for the petcock.
  13. Looking at his map I'd say he built a ramp in Texas and jumped over two state to Calif....
  14. You sound like my wife, we've been married 39 years and she just had her 29th birthday. I'll be 67 next month.....
  15. My brother and I bought the Converse C9894 composite toe and sidezip, www,511tactical.com had them on clearance 2 months ago for $39.95. A good boot. I doubt if a boot has a sidezip it would be considered waterproof.
  16. I went with the Cee Baileys dark tint on a Road Star I had and you really couldn't see thru it. I'd go with the light grey or smoke.
  17. Had a friend with the butt problem, he bought a gel pad from WalMart and had it bilt into the seat. Cut the winning in half on his RSTD..... LOL
  18. I went with the commanders all the way around. As I don't ride two up or pull a trailer, I went with the 130 and the handling improved consideribly. Have about 2,300 on them and they look like new, have the dyna-beads in them.
  19. Now that's a lot of work, me I'd just paint the rims and let it go...........
  20. I see where Cal-Osha, in order to keep two hands on the bars at all times, is requiring all riders to wave with their left foot here on the left coast...
  21. Nice job, I went with the T-Bag model, works great.
  22. Their a 1" bar......
