    I got a keeper!

    Congratulations! Nice bike..I ride with alot of guys that have Harleys and they like them..but now the real money IF you start the chroming!
  2. I am running the E3S on my wing..they are noisier BUT no problems sticking to the road or handling.The MAIN reason I run the E3S is the load capacity rating on the rear..All the rear tires on wings are rated at 827 LBS with the exclusion of the E3, 992 LBS.I tried a car tire and not impressed at all,I will not use a CT at all now that I have ridden with one.
  3. I just got my friend Billy a set of E3S for $309.00 from Motosport..Born date on front 0311 rear 1211 delivered to door
  4. God Bless You and your Family.
  5. Im telling you the wind wings under the mirror are needed..you are going to be surprised at how much they cut out the wind..My wife wont even ride with me unless they are closed..yes it blocks that much wind.
  6. Just a thought. Has it ever been lowered that you know of?
  7. Got a close friend with 288,000 miles and still purring so 150,000 is easy.
  8. F4 +4. Or what I run 4 inch taller clearview
  9. Taller, wider windshield and the wings under the mirrors will solve the buffeting.
  10. I know of another that has jumped ship but I will let him announce it.
  11. Gary and Mary. Was really good to see you guys back here in Texas. I wish I didnt have to work this week as it is your last week here....but next year 3 Months! Im glad I got to drive you guys around yesterday Debby and I got a kick out of seeing you two eat like you did..cant beat that good ole Tex Mex,(Stingers)/Seafood meals! Anyway you two be careful going home and I PROMISE,next year the Leaky BBQ meet and eat will be around the first of April but I will have to get the others to make reservations real early as they get booked fast the first part of April.Anyway we will have a blast! Take care my friend. Tom and Debby

  20. I will get some pictures up after while..The chrome has burned my eyes.....OH YES,I forgot to mention,Guess who showed up at that little ordeal?..........PONCH! I was gonna call him and give him the address and I looked up and here he came riding up.I said how in the world did you find us?....He will Chime in and tell ya the "Rest Of The Story"
  21. OK yesterday AM I get up at 0330 and head to Houston for a 3-4 hour supposedly job doing some Modifications on the Wing/\..It turned out to last all day and didnt leave Houston for Home till nearly 8PM last night arriving home around midnight. Here Is a list of what I did. 1. Progressive front springs 2. "All Balls" Head Bearings.(Didnt need YET but most Gold Wings will need to upgrade due to a front end wobble 3. Centramatic wheel balancers,front 2 and rear 4. CHROME WHEELS (Eye Candy) 5. Handlebar risers OK,here is the report: The front end and feel is AWESOME. I was skeptical about doing the Centramatics but figured since I rode one with them and it seemed to make the older Wing ride better than mine Why Not? My result..They are a FANTASTIC product and you cannot see them when installed unless you are really looking hard for them. It almost feels like it makes the bike even more stable and yes the balancing is great to. I keep wondering if it makes more of a "GYRO" effect"? Im telling you it almost feels as if the bike would stay up by itself when you stop .(I dont know how else to explain it.) The handlebar risers are fantastic,they cost me $25.00 but it raised the bars at the end about 1 1/2 inches and seems to have pulled back about 1/2 ,3/4 of an inch. I can honestly say that I now have the most comfortable bike Ive ever ridden because of this Mod. The "Chrome Wheels"..whast else can I say..when I turn on the "Ring Of Fire"and it shines against the chrome wheels man is it a showstopper. I had people in every town pulling up beside me giving me a "Thumbs Up". All in al other than the Chrome wheels it was $500.00 .For those interested the Chrome Wheels was $700.00 installed with new bearings seals everything ready to bolt on and yes he will ship them this way so all you have to do is order wheels,put them on and send your old wheels back..IF you dont wanna go to Houston to have it done for free!
  22. Hope you had a great day Owen!
  23. I really got ya beat..Not enough numeric keys here so I win! All kidding aside..That is great..I need to work on that. If they would just stop selling Blue Bell Ice Cream and Mexican food...
