The most anticipated moment happened to my bike. A wash.

The paint on the fenders feels rough, after more than a year and a half without a wash Wondering if any automotive wax will smooth it out? What do you guys use in this case?
Also, I have a pair of stock rubber handlebar grips which were taken off after the first 5-600 miles. They came off intact. Needs some cleaning and can be of some good use for someone here.

if it feels rough, try the Mothers Clay bar kit. I used it on my car and my Sportster when I had that. amazing product. comes with some shine-spray, a couple clay bars, and a microfiber rag.. if you choose to use it, be very liberal with the spray, get the fender nice and soaking wet and scrub firmly but not crazy with the clay bar, clear coat comes out nice and smooth.

Is that a HD low profile dash or other? Looks killer.

It has been a while since i have gotten onto this page, mainly due to a busy work schedule. Glad to see all the awesome LOs out there. Now i have some fresh ideas for mine. after two years of being unhappy with the SE slip on pipes, i have decided to spend the money and get some V&H big radius 2 into 2. Will share a picture of the bike once she is set up again.

Anyone have any tips/tricks to fix that issue?

When I changed my bars my brake light did that and it was because the button was stuck on the front brake. I ended up putting in a piece of cardboard in there so that it would keep it tighter.

If that question was about my bike. The answer is yes. It's the HD low profile console which I powder coated and installed with a Dakota Digital speedometer. I dig a lot the way it looks!
