The Motorcycle Discussion Thread
I figure there are some motorcycle guys/gals on CP, so I thought we could have a place to talk all things Motorcycles.
Tire Mount and Balance Prices (as of 10/29/16) Prices based on if you remove the wheels yourself and bring the wheels and new tires with you: Cycle Gear - $35 per wheel if you buy tires from them. $58 per wheel if you buy tires elsewhere Rawhide - $65 per wheel (assuming it would be the same at other HD dealers. they book it at 1/2 hr per wheel) C R Cycle Tires (DeSoto) - $30 per wheel Cheapest I've found my Michelin Commander II's. Seem like they have good prices on other brands too. http://www.jakewilson.com - Free 3 day shipping on orders over $75 Last edited by Dayze; 10-29-2016 at 09:02 PM.. |

This would definitely be something I'd be down for. Maybe have a small fee to donate to a charity or something depending on the size? or just have some group rides etc.; grab some BBQ at some out of the way spots.

So, the salesmen e-mailed me back on the 2013 Road Glide Custom. Asked me if I had anything to trade in, then told me how I have EXPENSIVE taste and asked if I've see it in person. Never told me the price. I find that so frustrating. Why respond to my question and not answer the original question. So very frustrating. I e-mailed him back told him I might trade in my 2007 Vulcan and again asked the price. 2 hours later, no response.

I visited Worth 2 Saturdays ago; they checked in twice during the week to see if I was still interested etc. I called them after Rawhide seemed to not be interested; set up an appointment; haggled for about 20 minutes, and was out of there with a new bike (well, not 'with' but you get the point) about 2 hours later. Painless. |

Well I'll admit that I've come across some SUV drivers that I wanted to do that. Just this morning I found myself yelling at some old hag that cut me off. She wasn't in an SUV, though. It was a caddy.

Bike is great. Rotated the bars forward. Only got a short view of in the sun and it looks un****ing believable. Managed a quick 20 mile city ride before calling it a night.
I will post pics when I can. Note....the seat sucks lol. But, I didn't buy it for comfort. |

Arrived yesterday right on time
already rotated the bars forward and controls rolled back (not in this picture) Now I need to put 1000 miles on it for it's first service and winterization. Hopefully it'll stay warm enough to log some miles. |
