Was an unseasonably cool morning, so made a caged drive for grocery shopping. Temperatures were quickly climbing on the way back home. Feels like great weather for a late morning breakfast run. Made the ride and decided to take time out for a photo opt...Two Cities, Two States.......ok, so it's not as famed as Four Corners, but it's what's we're workin' with here....

Cool...you've got a T-Town connection.
Since breakfast is my favorite meal, I'm always on the hunt for a good breakfast anytime location.
Cracker Barrel off I-30 Richmond Road Exit is always a good reliable spot. But downtown Texarkana Johnny B's, 224 E 5th St, Arkansas side is a great breakfast spot too. Just east of that photo spot off State Line. If you haven't been and times available when passing through, stop in and enjoy their hospitality, and good food.
I'm all in for any breakfast spot that has good Turkey Sausage Patties on the menu.

Installed the new battery & tank lift frt & rear.
2020 TriGlide Tahitian Teal aka (Hawaiian Hussy). Avon frt & Comfortred rear tires. ProAction frt & rear susp. RZ seat. DK floorboard extension & rear axle retainer kit with EBS, HD pull -back bars. Custom Dynamics front turn signals & Vent grill. All ,HD "Edge Cut " accessories.
Well finally I got my gas leak fixed, It was leaking at the quick disconnect at the tank. I had the tools from my 10 Ultra that was leaking. So I pulled it apart to find out I must have done the valve kit last time... I didnt have the top O-ring. So I ordered 5 from Fuel-Tool.. For some reason they werent big enough, they fell out of the tool and wouldn't stay in the valve on the tank... So I went to the HD shop. Big joke their, they didn't even have a part number for the top O-ring... I found one in a O-ring package at a parts store...
Found out by watching the video again. I found out I didn't need to replace the top one. Its the bottom one that leaks. The top one seals off the gas when you take the line loose... Anyway thats fixed... Its a 12, but when I bought it it had 5400 miles, now its a little over 6000. Muddy gravel Iowa roads suck...
Also I installed the Custom Dynamics Magic Strobes for my brake lights... I just missed being rear ended in my jeep once by some brain dead, so I make everything to be seen now.... Nice thing it said install it before the brake light module... I even got out the book that shows the wiring diagram, and it doesnt have one. It goes from the main harness to the tail light harness.... I plugged it in, it works fine.... Some more of HD's fine work....
I have it set 3 blinks, 3 second hold and three flashes, keeps doing it... That might wake the brain dead up... I know I always hated behind someone that had them.... So they work....
The trike was washed and clean, so took it for a little ride...then had to clean the bugs off after returning.

Took my wife for a ride, then did the three hole service while everything was warm. Re-torqued the lug nuts from the Goodyear ComforTred install.
FYI - The quickest way to lubricate your ratchet wrench is to drop it in the used oil container.

I fell into a barrel of drain oil once, the lubrication really didn't do much for me!!

So far this weekend has been a bust for riding due to storms and a lot of rain. Kind of boring, so pushed the Trike to the back of the carport and took some lighting pics.

Took it for a ride nice day for it
Not a very nice day for riding so like many of the others have done I added an extra tether to the tour pack lid just for some insurance in case the original would fail.

Installed floor board extenders and tank lifts, easy to do. Raining to much to ride after.
