Are you anywhere near the fatal crashes that Florida had recently?

After watching several videos on "fix my hog" they advised checking clutch and brake control units if newer bars installed . I had high bars installed on 15 fw in march. I checked using inch lb torque wrench and factory specs from manual . Maybe due to stress flex but all torx screws were almost 1/4 to 1/2 turn loose.

I too have had that experience after about 200mi on the new trike. The clutch side became loose enough that the whole assembly fell and turned as I was riding down the highway.... that is when I wished torx were slotted screws

After a high "pucker-factor" ride back to the house I kissed the threads with a little blue locktite and torqued them up. No problem since

It was 60° & sunny here in STL. I got a very nice 125 mile ride in & my FW is running great!

1 item of note, when I got home & was emptying the trunk, I noticed the latch seemed loose. Grabbed my light & looked & 1 of the screws was missing & was laying in the bottom of the trunk.

I cleaned the threads, loctited them & re-installed. I then pulled the other side & did the same. Just something we have to keep an eye on.

Probably a good thing to check every so often.Thanks for the reminder MDO

I am always grabbing stuff & checking tightness, in between doing it the correct way.

I know I looked when someone posted they were locked out.

Just for grins I ran a scan on my Freewheeler

No check engine light, tho the oil switch code showed up again

Think I will look at a non HD replacement

Is that the code I posted about before? I haven't got it in awhile. I never got a "check engine" light with it.

Let us know if you find an aftermarket replacement.

I'm down to 6 months on my warranty. I am having a reoccurring problem with condensation inside my speedometer & it's so bad I can't see the digital display. I guess I will get a new one.

The whole stock light for a Hogworkz.

I'm happy with it.

I went out before dark & gave my FW a quick shine with Lucas Speed Wax (a great product).

I hooked up the battery tender & put her to bed under a king size fitted sheet, which works great for covering the trike from the windshield to the trunk. I have another small sheet for the front end.

It went from 60 here to the 30's for the next week and they are predicting 3-5" of snow Friday night into Saturday, so she will get a good nap. Come on spring!

[MDO]

We are actually having winter this year & it sucks.

Snow everywhere, no sun & in the 30's. They are predicting below 0 temps this weekend .

I will not be riding for awhile.

That sucks

It has already been a strange winter

Next week here in Jax it is going to be 45 on Monday dropping to 28 Monday night

I will be wearing my Chaps and face mask

[MDO]

Jack, at this point, I would take 45° with dry roads

Nothing good happens when the temp goes below 0. Things break.
