haha!! will do. I put on 110 miles yesterday riding home from the dealer. It's going to take some real getting used to, doesn't fit me quite like my old RK. Gonna need a taller windshield and probably some taller bars. We'll see as I get more riding in.

Congrats Six! Nice looking bike, shame about the fairing....

2024 Softail Heritage Classic. I don't have it yet. Check back in a month. I'm waiting on the right color.

Hahaha!

Perhaps it's not worth the risk!

Congratulations!  Good Luck with the New One.
Always Nice to have a Back-up Bike.  Enjoy!

well, riding season is here and my old King is still on the mend... So I had to get me a 'backup bike'

Thanks! I got lucky in the early 90's and drew mulie tags for Idaho,  Wyoming and Montana. I fell in love with all three states. The people I met there were incredibly kind and generous. Not something I was particularly used to coming from South Florida. The elevation nearly killed me but, I enjoyed every dizzy moment lol

Yep, I discovered this country while antelope hunting. It was a huge improvement over south Memphis.

Quote from: Deye76 on Yesterday at 05:03:32 AMMen, stop using pressure washers to clean your bikes.

I have a pressure washer designed for washing bikes. I use it to clean up our dirt bikes after a day on the track or trail. It has lower pressure than regular washers so it won't inject water past seals or gaskets. Just looking at all the electrical connections on this softtail makes me think even the lower pressure of the Muckoff washer may be too much. All of my dirt bikes are purely race/Off road machines. No lights or electronics but I still don't spray the switch housings.
