Who Is From Tucson

I have an '05 Road King and just installed a Kuryakyn LED fuel gauge and charging system indicator (the Informer). When my tank is full, the low fuel light comes on in the speedometer console. Once it gets to the 3/4 level, it goes out. I haven't ran it down to empty yet to see if the light comes back on. It was a 3 wire installation with an amp plug. Has anybody got a fix for this problem.

Not bike related but this one slayed me


Holy Water

Jerry, a Cajun highlander from Rapides Parish in central Louisiana, was an older, single gentleman who was born and raised a Baptist, living in South Louisiana

I recently discovered that my rear master cylinder cover somehow disappeared. I parked the bike last fall with brakes. Then took it for a spin last weekend and nothing, at least in the rear. It must have fallen off during the last ride or something.

In any event, I decided to make one since I have access to some machining equipment at work. I've got it to where it's shiny, it fits and actually looks like I may have bought it. I have noticed that the inside of the ones I've looked at are recessed. Is there a mechanical reason for this or is it just to use less material? I can put the recess in mine but I don't want to go through the hassle if it isn't necessary.

I would have bought one but the stealer didn't have one in stock and the parts guy pissed me off. That's another story....

I'm think'in about puttin a Vance & Hines Longshot exhaust on my 2006 Fatboy are these good exhaust for this bike?And should i baffle them or not?
