I wasn't aware I wasn't being nice. I was just pointing out that if the weather is bad, or if I'm on rough country road riding then I use an old Road King that I have rather than a more valuable and special (in that it was my first new Harley) Heritage 114.
I follow hulkss threads and posts with interest, and have, and no doubt will learn a lot from them. It is obvious he knows what he is talking about and I have the same model of bike as he does, so it is of even more relevance to me.
I will endeavour to express myself more clearly (and therefore less ambiguously) in the future.

Separated by the Atlantic and a common language, LOL. Looked fine to me, don't worry about it. 👍 Hulkss will let you know, if he wants you banned!

Notice the excellent protection from the stock front fender.

It's also the reason why I can't watch "Million Dollar Bogan" and the way he abuses that RKS of his. It makes me wince. He thinks shock and fun, I would think $$$$'s over the counter at the service desk at the Harley dealership. He obviously has deeper pockets than me! (Is that you hulkks in the pic?)

I've been in nearly similar situations but that is just a photo I found online.

Looking forward to the fender mounted, keep us posted.
