Minimizing risk, maximizing enjoyment, 05 Mar 2019 11:44 AM
I think unnecessary overtaking is the main thing I see other riders doing which puts them at high risk. Just wait until the traffic stops and then go to the front of the queue, it’s not a bloody race, we aren’t all playing Cannonball Run!!! I saw a 1%er risking becoming a 0%er today. Mate he had some close calls!!! You can’t ride bad forever without coming unstuck. Sometimes I think some motorcyclists think that’s how they’re supposed to ride ... you know monkey see monkey do.

My personal opinion is to go for a 2009 and later touring model as they changed the frame with that model. Mileage will probaby be above 40K but as long as they have been regularly serviced (ie oil changes) it should matter too much. Here are a couple of Road Kings from Bikesales (localish): This one looks quite a tidy bike with a few extras: https://www.bikesales.com.au/bikes/details/2009-Harley-Davidson-Road-King-Classic-1584-(FLHRC)/OAG-AD-15972799/?cr=0&psq=%28%28%28%28%28%28Service%3D%5BBik...

Speedo/Tacho to suit 1996 Dyna Wide Glide (FXDWG) - Any recommendations/reviews?, 14 Jun 2017 01:37 AM
With the gear indicator, the one thing I've noticed is when you pull up to stop sign in first gear and stop it will then read "0 "gear. When you engage the clutch to move off it then changes into 1st. It doesnt bother me though.The other thing I really like is that it learns your fuel range.The standard softail fuel gauge is well known to be inaccurate and even when I updated to the LED lighted one it didn't improve.With the Dakota you can set when the LO fuel light comes on,and it gives you an ...

Legit buyer or, 29 Jun 2016 09:17 AM
Definitely a scam mate, they deposit the money in your paypal account, courier comes around and collects vehicle, then they make a claim thru paypal and get their money back and you have nothing - no money and no vehicle. Unfortunately if you are as lucky as me, look forward to phishing emails - the pricks have nothing better to do. Be very wary of any emails from 'paypal' they make them look very legitimate. Personally I don't even reply to these type of responses from 'buyers'. On the flip...

Forward Controls on the Road King, 17 Dec 2015 02:49 PM
The best part of the riding postiion on my Dyna was the forward controls. Didn't mind the new touring floorboards, but knees are still too high against the tank and can't stretch out as much as I'd like so decided to go with these. I'm not tall (5'10"" border="0" src="/DesktopModules/NTForums/themes/_default/emoticons/wink.gif" /> and these are the standard length set. Hawg Halters from Rollies. Retail is about $1100. Installation was not a smooth process - wrong brake lever packed in the ki...

Rear Indicator relocation Street Bob, 28 Jul 2015 09:19 PM
Nice " border="0" src="/DesktopModules/NTForums/themes/_default/emoticons/smile.gif" /> I just got a HD relocation kit for my 2013 street bob, trying to fit it last weekend and was wondering how the hell you get the wires from the LED type turn signals/brake lights to go 'down the stalks' when you fit it as 'intended'... seeing as the cabling doesn't fit the same as the older bulb type models... Ended up ordering a part from 'great bike gear' in the US which re-locates and mounts the plate...

Hay guys Bugga Bugga, Done it, there is lots in there. think a door behind the battery might be an idea. Any who, bloody thing still showing 12,5vlts and static when going,12.9vlts when stopped. Pretty sure the alt is ok, showed 20-30 ac vlts. The resistance was a bit odd, probe in one hole other to the motor showed 0.4. which is ok with some books others say 0. Any clues? The netral light dims when I rev it, that's what alerted me in the first place. I hate lectrickery. Thanks Du...
