The man who brought us such memorable songs as "All-American Redneck" and "My nose Don't Work No More" got into it with a bounty hunter in Tennessee. Outlaw to the end. RIP brother.

I rode to my mothers house in R.I. On the way down traffis was lite to medium. When i got there I stacked wood all day then rode 3 1/2 hours home. I-290,I-495 and spaulding turnpike were jacked. I-290 was at least moving but cars were bumper to bumper. Excitment? Flirt with death....Run 70+ mph like that. I-495 was parking lot from when i got on to when i got off...construction and a 3-4 car pile up. 3 lane parking lot. My bike is air-cooled and it was 90 degrees out so i ran the break down lane. I don't give a shit. Spaulding turnpike was bumper to bumper stop and go. i was happy to finally get on I-89. 365 miles in one day and about 3 cords of wood stacked!

Has anyone installed a trailer wire harness on a 2014 FLHTK, Ultra Limited? The 2014's have the new bike harness that's plug and play, so after I installed the bag lights, I'm left with the question of "How do I plug and play the trailer harness?". Any help is greatly appreciated!

Well, it's time to get the 117 built. I got the carb back on the Road Glide and is running. How well? I am not happy with it. While it was idling, I had Hot Rider blip the throttle and I saw smoke coming from the front cylinder tailpipe. It wasn't a constant stream of smoke, it seemed like just mainly when we juiced it a bit. To confirm, I had Hot Rider watch me when I took it for a test ride. She confirmed that when shifting from 1st to 2nd there was a puff of white bluish smoke. Since it is coming from the front cylinder, which I have been concerned with for a little while, I have elected to go ahead and start the 117" build, stick around home with the bike and ride the 98" until the 117" is ready for install.

With the wife working Sundays now and a daughter not quite young enough to stay home alone all day my Sportster has barely left the driveway so far this year. I likely have not driven it 60 miles so far. So to pass the time I picked up a lightly used Yamaha Kodiak for the trails, as the wife does not mind the daughter on 4 wheels as much as two. On the weekend we loaded up for a cookout and headed out to the coastline with my parents, (still 'wheelin!), and my aunt and uncle and their granddaughter. Pics are from the Bay of Fundy just south of Fundy Park. Then a Snowmobile Clubhouse built in rememberance of a fallen rider, and a pic of a stop at the twin lakes of Big Bear and Little Bear. My machine is in the foreground of the last photo.
Hopefully better weather and warmer...
