Glad you didn't get it.

Orlando here... parked bike inside warehouse at work to be safe. All good. My house is good too - no power yet, but no structural damage. Some neighbors had trees land on houses etc.

  1. https://www.hdforums.com/forum/sport...breathers.html
  2. https://www.hdforums.com/forum/sport...-complete.html (Bowhunter8607)








checked the side for clearance and marked them out... did want to relive this: https://www.hdforums.com/forum/dyna-...l#post16458275
