You should have won, your bike looks nicer than his. Looking at his SG, it looks like he hasn't done a whole lot to it other than some over priced pipes (mufflers specifically, they are like $800 or...

In some respects yes.

Depends on the price per hour of the shop. But doing the maintenance yourself is easy and I have done so since 2006. Service is every 5K miles. 5K and 15K service is basic oil change and...
Its got the right number of head lights... I say go for it. :thumbup:
I split lanes on my Road Glide all the time, almost on a daily basis. I feel safer doing that then sitting in traffic.
Personally, I'd rather be between the cars then wait for someone to...
I know mine isn't a VTX, but the OP didn't specify that, only members of the board, so I change my engine oils every 5K on my Road Glide, I run what ever is cheaper at Wally World in the gallon jug,...
I'll be your huckleberry. My 2009 Road Glide has just over 25K miles on it, I bought it in February of 2009. I also wrecked it in February of 2009 when i got rear ended by another bike (another...
You have no idea what your talking about with this comment.
The first CVO bike if my memory serves me right was the FXR2 in 1999, they made the FXR through 2000, the last one was the FXR4 and they were all EVO motors. My buddy has an FXR2 in Red. Nice bike.
Your right, base gaskets, not O rings on the Evos. Sorry about that.
A 99 Dyna will have an Evo motor, which is 80ci. Nothing wrong with an Evo motor, but with low mileage and at that age, I would suspect that seals are starting to go bad, take a real good look at...
Not saying HD is better by any means, just wanted the correct information to be put out.
If your using speakers that are built for an HD, then you need to be aware that HD uses a 2 ohm system, most aftermarket head units are 4 ohm, you can make 2 ohm speakers work on a 4 ohm system and...
I've got J&M 7 1/4" speakers on my Road Glide and they are awesome. Dr. V-twin has them for the cheapest price shipped.
I love my "toys" namely the DDG variety. Looking forward to meet you too Hick.
The way I look at it, you can tour on any kind of a bike. But there is a difference between a bagger (GW, Road Glide, Ultra ect.) and a cruiser style (VTX, Road King ect.)
Touring is an...
I'm going to be transferring out to Norfolk in March next year. Looking to buy a house in Chesapeake. Won't be able to make this one, but maybe next time around.
IMO, you would be just fine going by the 5, 10, 20K service numbers. They change the spec in 2004. There are really no changes in the motor, primary or transmission in 2000-2004 years. With modern...
Are you really trying to imply that these 2 vehicles really do the same thing because they both have dump beds?
I wouldn't call a bike that can do a 1/4 mile in 13 seconds slow by any means for a V-twin bike. Its a second faster than a VTX1300 at the 1/4 mile with 100cc less displacement, and a second slower...
2500 mile oil changes are a waste in most cases IMO. My 2006 and 2009 manuals say 5K for motor oil, 10K for primary and 20K for trans. If your changing more than that your wasting money to give...
The power difference between the two is pretty big. Anyone who really gets into riding will outgrow the 883 in a hurry. With that being said, IMO, a Sportster is only a "beginners" bike when it...
Like Spike said, you'll have to take it to the dealer to get that reprogramed unless the original owner never put in a code.
With the advent of the Twin Cam motor, the idle speed of HD has...
You have no idea what you are talking about.
If your looking for a Sportster, try to stick with 2004 and up. In 04 they rubber mounted the motor and that made a big difference on the...
I have to disagree with you on the maintenance point that your trying to make. HD hasn't required 2500 mile services since 2001 or 02. Everything is 5K miles, and the most complicated thing to do...
