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.

Haha. I already have 1500 miles on her, and I got her on Sept 28th. Not bad considering the weather. I pretty much ride whenever weather permits. Even if it's just to go up and get a can of dip, or run an errand that doesn't require me to haul anything. Fun bike to ride.

You're right. When it's in the sun, it's incredible. I've received lots of compliments on the paint alone while parked at places etc.

I've still yet to see another 72 on the road here locally; let alone one with the candied paint.

I'm so glad she fired up on the first shot; even though the idle was screwy. as soon as I plugged in the IAC connector and fired it up, immediately idled correctly, and it was the first time I'd heard it properly idle with the new pipes. and they sound KICK ASS. blipping the throttle and revving it a bit, it sounds like a beast.

it's funny, when I replaced the air cleaner, I didn't expect much difference, but man,...you can REALLY hear it start to suck the air in when starting it up. like it's gulping down some air just before it fires up.

Can't wait to ride it with the new set up.
The rear O2 harness is going to be a bitch to get to in order to install the XiED. Not looking forward to that one.

yeah. Windy days beat the crap out of me on the highway. I rode it to a bike show a few weeks back that was gusting like crazy - my fuel light usually comes on right at 60-65 miles right on the nose every time; this time it came on at 50.

plus, the seat doesn't give much confidence when accelerating hard or on windy head-winds....feels like I'll slid off lol. I've gotten used to it now, however.

It's definitely a bar hopper, or something to bomb around town on. It's sweet spot from a cruising perspective is right about 60. It'll go 70+ all day long with power, but 60 seems just right from an RPM perspective. It only has a 5 speed, so that has a lot to do with it.

I had the Harley shop put on all my accessories when I bought my bike. They put on one called the Big Sucker. It's like what you described of yours. You can actually hear it sucking air when you get on the throttle.

I put on the Arlen Ness Big Sucker; probably the one you have. Arlen Ness is a popular A/C for HD's.

Noice. Ultra or Street Glide is going to be my next bike down the road.

I might even keep the 72, and just turn the motor into a mean little beast.

Cool. When you get old you need to spend your winters here in AZ so you can ride year round...

I don't really care for fairings as a personal preference. Are bikes like the ultra's up there ever without fairings?

I 'think' (just going off of memory) the wiring for the head lamps/running lights etc goes in/through the fairing. I'm sure you can remove it, but it might be a pain.
