These were take-offs from someone who decided to install chrome ones.
After all the motor upgrades it seemed smart to update the brakes.
They feel like a really nice improvement over the old style. I'm impressed !

So who knows anything about touching up a few scratches? Touch up is needed on fairing, right saddle bag top lip (gonna need to fill that in with some fiberglass filler) and top of left saddlebag. Any advice or help is appreciated. ]]> Pit Stop Enforcer http://www.bikersite.org/forum/showthread.php?t=17872 http://www.bikersite.org/forum/showthread.php?t=17871&goto=newpost Thu, 19 Aug 2010 10:48:47 GMT So a buddy of mine picked up an `02 Road King Classic last weekend from Thiel's Wheels in Upper Sandusky, but there's something not quite right about it. Who in their right mind would think mounting their stock mirrors upside down would look good, and why the hell wouldn't the dealer have mounted them right before sending it out the door?

Got a trunk and hard bags the other day at a motorcycle salvage yard,the trunk was in good shape really and just had to make a new mount for it.Removed the passenger back rest and fastened the new mount to back rest location,I think it looks good and is very functional now to repair and paint the hard bags,fiberglass and kinda flimsy but we'll see how it turns out. ]]> Pit Stop Chiefnottapuss http://www.bikersite.org/forum/showthread.php?t=17854 http://www.bikersite.org/forum/showthread.php?t=17836&goto=newpost Thu, 12 Aug 2010 17:44:14 GMT Just a heads up in regards to the 2009 and newer Harley touring bikes.

The early 2009 bikes came with the dunlop 407f tire on the front. That tire was prone to cupping, being noisy and putting a fine vibration in the handlebars.
The 407f was replaced on my bike with the 408 which was supposed to be new and improved. The late 2009 and newer bikes have the 408 tire.
I started noticing the fine vibration coming back and when I checked the front tire it is starting to cup. It looks to me like the 408 may not have totally fixed the problem. I am suggesting that anyone with the 09 or newer Harley touring bike keep a very close watch on their front tire. Harley replaced the 407f tire at no charge for me. I have submited a request for assistance with the replacement 408 tire. I am still waiting for a reply and will update when I get a reply from the dealer ]]> Pit Stop terryj http://www.bikersite.org/forum/showthread.php?t=17836
