  1. How does that work....parked and engine off to check the oil? I want one of those buttons.

    It is a digital read out dip stick that Harley sells for their bikes. Oil level needs to be checked engine off on side stand oil temp can be checked any time. It works great as long as the battery is not dead I need to replace mine I’m glad this came up I will do that today. It lasted 3 years.
  2. I solder every wire connection I make and seal it with liquid tape Saves you a butt load of trouble later learned the hard way on boat trailers if there is any chance of it getting wet do not use those cheap connectors and going strait of the battery would not be a problem if you use a fuse in the line. If you are only running a GPS or Phone a 5 amp fuse would be plenty if you are going to run something with more power draw you can always change the fuse to a higher one.

  3. Thanks

    I ordered the Wasabi power pack It will be the easiest for me I have a lighter outlet in my saddle bag so it will work great I can do the battery changes at stops in less than 5 minutes I will also have my laptop with me on the trip to Mt. Rushmore and will post pictures and videos at the end of each day if I’m not to wore out. I also ordered a few extra 64 GB micro cards just in case.

  4. I have mounted mine everywhere on the bike the coolest looking pics are when I mount a 5 foot broom stick to my sissy bar and put the camera at the top pointing slightly down ether forward or backward you get some nice shots when riding in groups and on the twisties

  5. For safety and liability purposes when they test tires they cannot have any failures of at least 2 times the speed rating so you are good. When I worked for Eaton Corp our hydraulic hose could not fail at 3 times its stated working pressure

     At 130 that could cut our time down to under 10 hours counting gas and food stops :bow::lol:

  6. Guys on the ride out and I will take the anchor position I do not think you will want to listen to my pipes at 80+ mph for too long. But I will take my turn at plowing the road to be fair when you want me to. I got out for a 250 mile ride today and my hips are sore. I need to get in a lot of saddle time between now and when we go to get back in riding shape.

  7. My son was a full time cop for 8 years you would be surprised how many criminals with warrants out on them that they catch that way also some of the newer cars have scanning cameras that do it automatically Welcome to the new world

    I could argue both sides of this also

  8. Got out with the wife today we rode up to Chardon for Geauga County Maple Festival hung there for a few hours then headed over to Blazin Bills in Burton for dinner I heard a lot about the place and had a gift card that I won on a ALR run so we decided used it. On a 1 to 10 scale I rate the place a 4 there were only about 15 people in the place but it still took 50 min to get our burgers our fries did not show up until we were almost done with our burgers. But I can’t complain too much since we got it for free and I was with good company. My wife works tomorrow so I will be on my own just have to decide what direction I want to head in.

  9. I love to mess with Squids its always fun to act like you want to race at a light and then when the light turns green watch them rocket off at 150 throw the intersection like a dumb ass  it still makes me laugh every time. I know a lot of my buddies do the same thing. We all started on rice burners so we know better.  We were all young and dumb at one time but you do not live to be and old rider if you say that way.

  10. Every dealer I have ever dealt with has taken care of the plates for me They would call when they came in and even put them on when I went to pick them up. They are selling you a bike it should always be part of their customer service.

  11. What kind of oil should I pull the trigger on when I wave or don't wave to other riders while wearing my novelty, "no shroom" helmet, assfull chaps (Not assLESS), fingerless gloves, and SOA vest while simultaneously wondering if others see me as a poseur or a biker considering I don't remember where I put my gas cap at the last stop?
