    CB, you need to man up. You got heated grips what more do you need. I rode a bit today and it was 35 out and it was a nice day for a ride.

    When its 100* outside ride yer butt down here and we will go for a ride man.

    When you git 60 you can be whatever you want to be.
    And not do no more than you wantto do.
    And when its 36* outside, you look outside and it draws you to lookn out the window, Sooner or later yer gonna walk over to the door and open it and step outside.
    You will wake up and realize its friggin too cold to go out.
    Better take a nap so you can forgit about it.:rolleyes:

    Lumber was in a wrack, its gone. Golf cart is across the street at another buddys house. Mule is in the driveway.
    Tools are on top of the boat too.
    I got one tool box that has 1/4 in drive, 3/8 and 1/2 and got a socket set of the old mans that is a little rusty that is a 3/4 in drive that he worked on the Ford tractor with.
    Got a couple wrench sets.

    But I got a bike with a little less than 1100 miles with a bumper to bumper warranty. I got to do oil and replace the tires and all.
    If it breaks down I call the HD dealer or a phone number and the will come and git me for free and tow my bike.

    Notised that on the 07 and 08 bikes they needed to be around 65 mph to git it in 6th gear. YOu did a lot of riding in 5th gear.

    With the 2011 they musta changed the primary sprockets.
    The bike pulls better, and it don't lug when you git it in 6th gear going slower.

    Definately something diferent about this bike.

    Got more to do than just the cubic inch's.
    My other bike had a 103 on it. And there is a difference.
    Its how the gears are set up.
    Its really a huge difference.
    I've ridden a lot of demo bikes but was never able to tell all of it.
    But after gittin my own bike I can tell a huge difference.
