I think the suspension that was on it was just toasted. I know my mom replaced it once while she had it, but she did have it for almost 20 years.

Re: Introduce or reintroduce yourself


I was waiting for an activation email that never came but decided to try logging in and sure enough it worked.

Yeah we went through a period where we were getting like 20 spammers a day registering. So I gave up and switched over to a manaul activation (I activate the users manually) so I wouldn ...

Just set the rebound and compression at the recommended starting points, especially until I get the front installed. The sag I was able to set on the stiff side (tall side) of the spec with ...

Yeah it looked really good, but it dumped so much wind noise right by my ears (I think due to its shape) I couldn't hear the radio at all while riding.

Re: Well it happened...

Well been getting stuff on track with the Harley.

I've never been good at front forks. I talked to a shop about the front suspension and my fender issue. Right away he asked if I tried the wheels without the fender brackets as the ...

It has tons of braking power now. In fact so much I have a nice dent in my front fender where the triple clamp kissed it. So as it turns out ...

Re: Well it happened...
