I lied. Went on a ride sponsored by a local Harley dealer this weekend and ended up with some pin striped flame work by Kerry Buckley.

I like them. Shocks smoothed out the ride. No bottoming out on road imperfections. Front end handles a lot better too. Not that stock was horrible, but these are a huge improvement. As for the mustache bar, it's there for the look. I like cruisers with bars and thought is one looked the best on the bike.

Thanks big marv for the kind words. The good job goes to the artist, Kerry. He came up with the design around the racing stripe and did the work free hand. I just provided the "canvas".

if you are referring to the bag it's a T BAG, can't remember where I got it. I'll look at my billing stuff.

The gear indicator is a function of the computer taking inputs from engine rpm and wheel speed. Based on the RPM of the engine and the speed of the wheel, it can figure out which gear you're in. Example: (arbitrary numbers) 60mph wheel speed and 2000rpm, it can figure you're in 6th. 60mph and 2500rpm, it figures you're in 5th.

Since you've changed the parameter of your wheel speed vs engine speed relationship, the computer doesn't understand what gear you're in.

Hope that helps.

The ECM doesn't know how fast your wheel is going it figures everything out from your Vehicle Speed Sensor which is in your transmission. I have changed my gearing to 30T pulley and re-programmed my ECM using a TTS Mastertune. My Speedo is correct and my gear indicator and 6th gear lights work as well.
