    Way to go Murph:thumbsup2: Did the same thing once, years ago. Buying something for yourself with the $ is a very smart thing to do, it helps you realize that you're getting something for your buck, rather than black lungs and nothing to show for it. Let us know what you buy next. Steve

    Look at the JC Whitney catalogue. They are in there. Just find the ones that fit and that you like the looks of. Steve

    I went to the harley shop, bought a pair of RK muffler clamps, went home and clamped them on. Cover them up? Why? BTW, Squidley here, makes and sells the brackets. I used his. Very nice brackets, and bolt right up. Steve

    I've been following you guys ride, and really hate to hear this news. I'm glad that Tom is not hurt badly and the bike took the brunt of the crash. My best to you both, Steve

    Hey Goose, Sounds like a great adventure! And I'm enjoying your updates. Stay safe and have a great ride, Steve

    I think that I must be missing something here. I do have a CT on order for the rear, but I don't understand the point of putting a rear MTn the front running backwards. If someone could enlighten me, Steve

    This might not help, but I was looking at LED turn signals for a bobber I'm working on just yesterday, and it stated that I might need a new/different flasher unit if I went with the LED's. I'll worry about it when I get there. Steve

    I see that Lowell ordered up a nexen tire. I called the Nexen rep in Cal, and got the specs: 165/80-15 6.5 width 25.5 height 2 ply sidewall Made in Korea--Oldest tire company in Korea I'm thinking real hard on this one. I need a tire before the riding season, which is about here. I really wanted two WW, but might just have to give in here. new tire every year doesn't cut it. Steve

    WWW help

    eagleeye replied to eagleeye's topic in Watering Hole

    Hey Dan, That number is a blackwall. They don't have it in a WWW. But the good news, at least for me, is that I just found one and ordered it. Curt, I was going to put a BF Goodrich on the back, but no WWW and an inch lower. That won't work. Steve

    WWW help

    eagleeye posted a topic in Watering Hole

    I need help finding a maxxis 150/90-15 WWW. It seems that they quit making them and can find the front, but not a rear in WWW. If you know of another WIDE WWW, I'd for sure check them out. I know that I can get Dunlop 404 WWW but they aren't as wide, and I want a WIDE-WWW. If I have to, I'll get the dunlops. Thanks, Steve

    Thanks, The reason that I was asking was that last summer I put a lowering kit on the back of my 05 RSTD, and really can't afford to have it any lower. So I will have to go with the federal 165. Steve

    Have any of you guys actually measured precisely how much a CT lowers your bike? Before I put one on, I'd like to know. Thanks, Steve

    Hey LA, I sprung free of that trap a couple of times, you know what I mean. Steve

    All I can say is, hang in there Don. Unfortunately, it won't get easier for some time, but just keep telling yourself that you are stronger and will win. It'll will be worth it in the end. Steve

    Hey Sarge, Thanks for letting us know. Please give Pete my best wishes. Met him at PIP couple years ago. Hope to do the same this year. Steve

    Don, Glad to hear that it was a warning shot across the bow and no more serious than that, but as far as quitting smoking, it'll be the hardest thing that you will do, at least it was for me. All the advice and help in the world won't help. It will come from within you. I smoked for many years, and finally decided that I wanted to be in charge of my life instead of cigs. Quit cold turkey, and had to keep telling myself that I was stronger than the cigs. In the end, I won. Haven't had one drag from a cig since 87. Did smoke a cigar at pork in the pines though. The best of luck to you, Steve

    Yup, doing the same thing I do every year on this day. Deer Hunting. Steve

    Ya know, I was just about to say that riding a bike was exactly like being a cowboy. That is how I have always felt about riding, since I started riding, 45 years ago, then I read JT's post and was going to disagree 100%, but he's dead on. Steve

    Anyone from upper NY? They are supposed to be getting 2' today. Steve

    Don Try AAA, and see what you come up with. I did that when my son turned 16 and saved a bunch of $ Did switch over my home owners also, still saved. Steve

    Gary, My heart goes out to you today as it did a year ago. Hopefully someday we will meet. Steve

    I'm with Goose 100% on this one. I find it very offesive, because I know that they are doing it on purpose. Once the headlight is adjusted correctly, then where would you set the driving lights? Off to the side, (ditch) to watch for deer? In between the high and low? What really catches my attention is a motorcycle "WITHOUT" his headlight on. Steve

    Bigboy, I've got a question for you. If I run a Vredestein tire, 165R-15 on the rear of my RSTD, would I still be able to run a non radial motorcycle tire on the front? Actually anyone's comment would be welcome. I'd like to run a gangster tire on the front. Also, will this tire lower the rear of my bike? Iv'e already got a lowering kit on. Thanks, Steve
