My father in Law wen't to Rolling Thunder 3 times. The last was in 2013 with his wife Kathy who in the same year was diagnosed with lung cancer. She passed in 2014. The toll her death took on him was immeasurable, he was never the same afterwards. However he was so excited she went with him. A treasured memory. Ok enough of all that.
Glad for all of you that are able to make this Rolling Thunder!
Tada! Newly mounted Mich Cmd 2. So I drove the bike with effort) to where the tire was put on, mind you this is the first time I had her out on the road since bringing her home and the original tire with the big flat spot. I thought OMG if this is anything like I'm to expect from this bike i'll stick to the wing. Well Brian( whom the bike was purchased from yrs ago) installed the tire we talked about the bike. Then off I went...... Dang! What a difference that tire made in the bikes handling. No wobble, nice and smooth and oh does she purrrrrrr!!!!! I was so proud to have her out on the open road. Even had a fella starring while in the turn lane. Yes a big grin was on my face. Looking forward to this coming weekend.
Yes, I'm a little boy with a BIG new toy, as we all are. Don't you think?
I have 2 fobs but only one round key. Shouldn't there be 2 round keys. I would like to have another so how do I go about making that happen?

while sitting on and riding the tri I thinking my riding position isn't right, like i'm not in that "cockpit zone" if that make any sense.
1. I feel I'm sitting too low. I'm looking through the windshield at the middle-ish point.
2. I'm leaning forward a tad. Not uncomfortable but still. My arms aren't straight with there being a bend in the elbows.
3. When I turn I'm really reaching far with the outside hand to push on the bar.
Then today I remember that my FIL was 6'4" prob a little less in his wiser years(haha). So I removed the seat and took some pics.
So I'm think'n this isn't a stock seat for the Tri and this is the reason for my position to be not right.
Ok so what are your thoughts on this?
Hi you are right that is not the stock seat. But Same as I use. I am 5ft 10in's. Like my low seat I had to change the windshield. Mine is a an 8 8in not the stock height I believe stock is 10". That being said I now use the KLOCK WERKS 8.5" DARK SMOKE FLARE! But have found a cheaper one from another company balled FREEDOM SHIELD. I have ordered one for me: TRI GLIDE® Windshield × 1, Size: 9", Tint: Dark Grey Tint, Style: Touring Width. for my 13TG. If you see something you like, I would call and ask questions I am sure they will help you. Here is a link...https://freedomshields.net/product/tri-glide-windshield/. Let me know what you think.

in the pic you see the seat doesn't have a slot for a backrest so I'm think'n he had it modified so he could sit back further. I can just touch the built in foot rest on the engine guards.
any Idea the height difference it made for you when you changed to the Low seat? Also thanks for the link.
Hi i think he may have gone to a tall boy seat. of had it reshaped. I found a low on ebay and all I did was have it re upholstered. Might I suggest going to a Dealer and try a seat on for size. My HD dealer has samples you can test out. HD factory seat or Mustang at mine.

hi The seat a low just is a lil lower made my seated position more comfortable. I also ride with 16in bars. Vey pricey deal though. with all the wiring. For well worth it for me. Here is a pic.
