Riding the crap out of her, i'm in southern CA, i'll keep riding and give her a few days to rest if it rains. Not to be a puss or anything, but on rainy days when i have to go to work, i'm glad i still have my truck.

Rudedog...
Well, in the interest of full disclosure I admit that I did not talk about our summers.
The temp can reach 103, and the humidity is always 110% at that time.
Picture yourself sitting at a red light with that engine heat adding to the discomfort! Not a lot of fun.
None of us have the best of all climates, it's just that we have no snow and mild winters......pg

Ride, ride, maybe ride after that....yeah SoCal!

Seriously, nothing major, maybe new mirrors. First task is to pay down the loan a bit.

Did I mention riding?

Hi,
New member here thought I'd reply to this one. I ride year round here in SC so my winter mods will be to add thermal underwear under my leathers! And also an exhaust system yet to be determined!
Oh, I have an 06 Wide Glide that, for now, is stock!!
