Its a 6mm x 1mm pitch x 16mm Lg. flat head machine screw.

NRA Commemorative Bike for 2014.

Good deal get him started off right!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Does anybody want too buy a nice Harley, just my 2cents ?

Hey how much rust is on Brown sugar out sight and out mind? Harley has the best quality of chrome on any bike I've ever owned bar none.

Brackets cost a $100.00, Kuryakyn Transformers $240.00 and wife not complaining on long rides priceless.[ATTACH]80639[/ATTACH]

I also think a carb. sync is the road to recovery to his problem with popping. Then and only then would I look at re-jetting or swapping jets around or between carbs. Need Mfg. spec. for installed jets on each carb. too verify that they are indeed installed properly.

If by chance your up my Mooresville NC., I'll be more than glad too help with the carb. issue. These engines want too run not set and be idle. Ready, waiting and able, just don't make house calls.

Bring Precious to North Carolina, Thumper needs some exercise and loves a challenge. WildBill:stickinouttounge:

Amen Brother......

:Venture:Yamaha Venture can be lowered front and back a full 11/2" without problems if done right. I've done several with happy owner results in improved handling at low speed. Work is done here in my shop in Mooresville, NC.

Road King/Road Glide bars Part# 56180-08 is the way to go in comfort. Pull-back 9.0" with 9.5" of rise. No more leaning toward the windshield.

How can they call this a touring bike without a tour box and a comfortable passenger seat? For $23,000 I expected more than a few Tech-Gadgets, pegs for your passenger really.....Its a choice but not real competition for the Harley line. You can buy a RoadKing for around $20,000 and cruise. This so called Indian Touring bike is really a cruiser anyway.

I added these for the wife for those longer trips. Modified Kuryaklyn Transformers, a little expensive, but when Moma's happy its a better ride.[ATTACH]78851[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]78852[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]78853[/ATTACH]

Sending these Pic's of HD bars I installed a couple weeks ago part# 56180-08. With 9" of pull-back and 9.5" of rise no pain in the neck. The rise is still 1" lower than stock. Bill,[ATTACH]78742[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]78743[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]78744[/ATTACH]

I didn't go with the Heritage Bar it has 12" of rise too tall for my riding habits. Dealer suggested those but I like the lower Road king/ Road Glide bar at 9.5" of rise and more pull-back. I too removed the Cat. from the collector, but that's another topic. Enjoy your bike. Bill,

Don, congratulations again on the new RoadGlide. I also found the handle bars to be uncomfortable on long rides not enough pull back. Just changed them out to match closer to what I had on my 06 RSV. Didn't like leaning forward all the time. Changed too Road King/Road Glide High Bars Part# 56180-08. They say high bar, but they are actually an 1" lower than your stock bars 9.5" versus 10.5" with 9" of pull back. They are machined for the Drive By Wire Throttle. Use existing cables and wiring just requires about 6 hours of your time. Bill,

Congratulations there, You'll be well pleased with this bike, I know. Got this 2012 hold over a couple months ago.[ATTACH][ATTACH]78667[/ATTACH][/ATTACH]

Before you start tweaking and bending check too see if the bar that looks off is resting on the top of the fork down tube. Also verify that the bar is fully seated in both handle bar clamps. They might have lowered it too far! Bill,

Getting back, 95% of the time if its not a component failure on a 12V system its ground related fault.

Does your First Gen. have a Tilt Angle shut off breaker like the Second Gen. Bikes? They do give problems on Second Gen. Bikes. Fairly easy to check just lay it over on a couple blankets in the yard. Bill,

If you look close I've got the RoadGlide and the CVO Dyna both after you got your Victory. I like the Victory engine had a 99 model with a 1600 in it. Just don't like the George Jetson styling they have now.

Just getting back: Had 03 Harley Ultra Clasic paid $18,000 in 05 sold in 11 for $12,500. Had 05 RoadGlide paid $12,000 in 09 traded a month ago for new RG allowed $10,000 on trade. Had 06 Venture traded on CVO Harley Dyna dealer allowed $5,500. I keep all my bikes in like new condition and all my traded bikes had over 40,000 miles on them. I do all my maintenance and put M/c oil in them. No valve or cam bearing failures yet. I don't own a cage the wife got one in her name. WildBill,

I looked but just couldn't leap, those big ugly jugs and that wart on the back called a touring box was too much for me. Went with better resale on the RoadGlide Ultra.
