    Fuel gauge vs. Digital miles to empty gauge

    My Dakota Digital MLX took a few tank fulls to learn the fuel mileage and doesn't jibe with the analog gauge. Who cares? Any late model big twin should average 30 mpg. We truckers run from fuel stop to fuel stop and I never worried about the fuel gauge that much. My truck averaged 6 miles per...

    TG Extended warranty

    I've always had break down funds set up for my bikes, cars, semi trucks. Another words, I self insure against unforseen mechanical/ electrical expenses. Look at it this way: Buy a new bike/ trike and it comes with a two year warranty. That's 24 months head start to stash X amount of dollars in...

    Free Wheeler windshield

    The last LRS shield I bought looked like it was finished by a 4 year old. Sent it back and ordered a Freedom Shields recurve. Still running it.

    Well finally.....

    Figurati Designs have come up with something that just may be useful unlike the majority of farkles that seem to saturate the H.D. world. A Magnetic Dipstick. It was my idea and they stole it! I lie. But it's a "why didn't I think of that" ...thing. They come with a black or chrome cap. Price is...

    Battery Life

    Replace it NOW! More problems are caused by a slowly dying battery than anything else on a HD motorcycle.Death of the regulator/rectifier and alternator are two of the most common items. I just had an old hand bring me his bike last week. He had entered the dreaded "death loop". The circle jerk...

    Avon Trike Cobra Chrome - Negative Experience

    The OP isn't getting any "word out". One experience with one tire isn't the basis to condem the brand. It could be a number of things...bad lot number, deformed, age, how that tire was shipped and stored and the monkey that balanced and mounted it. With my No Mar tire machine I've mounted all...

    Traveling with a bike cover

    Forget the stupid cover. I'll be dammed if I'm going to lug a cover around from state to state. It's a recreational vehicle and if your worried about it getting wet sell it and buy a pickup truck. The only thing I cover is the seat. If your worried about the controls and chrome in salt air a...

    Got an email from Surdyke stating due to licensing agreements in regards to dealer territory with the MoCo they will no longer be able to ship out of thire dealer territory- whatever that is. Pretty sure N.C. isnt within that territory. Last order I placed was back in March. I was intending to...

    It was bound to happen...

    You say your a young cat or kitten with limited funds? You say you want to build a little bobber or chop but the Sportster motors on the second hand market are limited or wanting? Well never fear your friends the Red Chinese with their slave labor industrial base have you covered. Introducing...
