JohnnyMarko 1 #880 July 23, 2015 Just got back from a week in the Pacific NW with the better half. It was...interesting.

BIGUN 1,230 #886 July 24, 2015 See, the auto slide was not an option 15 years ago when I bought my Fifth Avenue and a Ford P/U Hence, crunching my truck and the 5th wheel once on a too tight turnaround. I then bought a single cab Dodge 3500 dually. It worked great with the exception of seating. Update on the 2015 HD Road Glide. During summer months, in 90+ degree heat... close the front faring vents and add the $40.00 wind deflectors to the crash bar onside the faring. Had the stage 1,2,3 added (Big Breather, Performance Cam and Vance & Hines big radius street sweepers). Had it dyno'd Note to self: Must respect this bike. Crotch rocket torque, haven't had the balls to find the top end yet (125 MPH @ 3,800 RPMs) And yes, even though I live in a State that does not require helmets, mine is a full face Vega with aviator style polarized shade drop downs. Dump water in the top and let it saturate and the venting in the top keeps the helmet cool. Supposed to be 115 degrees tomorrow. Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jackwallace 3 #890 July 25, 2015 normissOne of many solutions First get a baseball bat and beat the hell out of the top of the tail gate. Might as well get it over with. Then look at the hitch where the ball is on the frame through a hole in the bed. Lets you use the thing at a truck when you aren't towing. http://www.carid.com/draw-tite/hide-a-goose-wide-head-7500-vl-30000-gtw-mpn-9464.html?gclid=CL2q75SE98YCFc4WHwodubwB2gU only make 2 jumps: the first one for some weird reason and the last one that you lived through. The rest are just filler. scr 316 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
