I like you LA state trooper post. There's some good straight elevated roads with mostly cane fields in the area not much traffic. These bikes run good and I'm having fun.

All i can say is , ummmmmmmmm , are you anywhere near the bonneville salt flats ? Harley baggers will go that fast but that does not mean that you should . I know it is fun for a minute , however , they are not built for that kind of sustained speed anyway . I once pegged the speedo on a honda 70 trail at i believe 55 mph going down a very long hill . They were not built to go that fast either , not a great experience and well before social media videos , but i am sure it would have been a winner with millions of hit's . Be safer and live a while ---------

so i edited this for this pice of sh--, after looking at this guys statistics of where he spends time in general harley chat, off topic and general B/S forum, with nothing worth saying or repeating, and been called out in the last few posts, apparently has money and is above others, putting down less fortunate riders with stupid @ss comments like:
OP probably couldn't afford the price of the Red Line and got the Mobil1 on sale. was called out
Because Poor people need a bike to ride.
How else are they going to get a bike if wealthy people don't
buy the new bikes?
a big mouth with nothing to say, you pathetic worm

Don't know where the State Trooper post went off too but it was all in fun.
I got my last RK from the dealer in Monroe.
Actually I noticed quite a few roads in the area (mostly state roads) were very smooth.
But from Vadalia to Alexandria on us 84 turned out to be hit or miss w/traffic.
But Alexandria to Shreveport on the interstate was a dream. Hardly any traffic and rather smooth.
Many places to open it up. Very nice state and great riding.

With new tires and ride on sealant/balancer the bike rides perfect, could not ask for a better ride. But around 110mph the front end starts shaking, its definitely in the front end and letting off the throttle, slowing in high gear the shake will continue until around 70mph as it fades away. A Honda dealer mounted and added the ride on, I was not present could it be incorrect amount added?
I had removed the weights from the front wheel before getting the tires mounted. It was 11 weights 5gm each or 55gm is 1.94 ounces. I'm grasping at straws but the seems like a lot of weight. Could it be that the sealant can't balance it if it's that far off?

Yup, there going to check it on the balance machine, hope it shows what the issue is.
