Best post you've written (that I've seen) on this forum.
We're all on a countdown clock, they (the general public) have their plans for us and they never liked us anyway. All they want is for us to be neither seen nor heard, but to quietly disappear. They will perhaps file us away in some archive (BBC documentaries?) where their precious feelings aren't hurt and where they can turn the volume down and stop and start the video in between indoctrinating the class about how, in the distant past, people used to be so "toxic" that they used to ride motorcycles. No amount of social responsibility, being cool, nice and friendly will change public feeling, because public feeling is an outgrowth of human nature.
There's nothing new about this. I've been reading an interesting sociological PhD thesis (quite light reading - not heavy at all) from the mid-80s which describes all of this.
So yeah, while I'm not a fan of Harleys, baffles out, if just for the message it broadcasts. |

I discovered my Fuelpak needed a number set in one of its modes to unlock the rest of the modes which has allowed me to load the correct map for baffles out. I just took it for a test run, o m fucking g. Haters are going to hate, fuck 'em. ____________________ "There's the horizon! Ride hard, ride fast and cut down all who stand in your way!" |

Two mod's i'd strongly recommend and go hand in hand:
1. Engine crash bars. Worth their weight in gold. Get ones wide enough so if you drop the bike at low speed, only the bar end and/or crash bar hits the ground. I have them on mine, dropped mine twice, £0 in damage compared to £200+ in broken plastic panels, bent levers, ugly scratched exhaust. For a Harley turn that £200 into £2000
2. Highway pegs. Bolt right onto the crash bars wherever you want. Nice to stretch the legs on longer riders.
Wouldn't bother buying proper Harley stuff, just some cheap chromed bars will serve the purpose.
These are mine:

I have those, they came with the bike. I took them off the next day, ugly as sin and not comfortable to use.
Riding position, the most comfortable I've had on a bike. Lots of room to shift my feet around, which alters leg geometry and reduces fatigue. ____________________ "There's the horizon! Ride hard, ride fast and cut down all who stand in your way!" |

After six hours of hard graft (me and Noriko), during which El Retardo (moi) managed to snap off the fuel-line inlet to the injectors and dump gas everywhere, we got the new lights & indicators installed.
Harley Davidson engineers, what a bunch of cunts. "Let's use this really weird and totally unnecessary fuel-hose clamp on the balance pipe to stop home DIY-ers doing their own work". Five minutes of hacksaw later, fuck off. Anyway, was well worth all the agg.
