    Johnny just make sure you do complete head checks when changing lanes on the freeway, may save your life and the wife's life.

    Freeways are very bad places to ride a bike when in commuter traffic. I avoid them like the plague. Don't know about Johnny, but I have developed strong neck muscles LOL.

    This is just a natural part of riding for me. Physically looking over your shoulder when lane changing is one the first things my dad tought me how to drive when I was 11 years old.

    Yep, I hate when things are on backborder. The last I heard is that they should have been in stock again yesterday but I haven't heard. Such as life I guess.

    Anyway, I got the glide into the shop to get the wiring figured out with my tail light and also to get my gps hard wired. Going to wait with the afr until it warms up more.

    The right hand mirror would always fall out of position. Now all of a sudden it isn't doing it. So I will leave the current ones on for now.
