He’s complaining that a lot of Harley dealers are closed on Mondays. At this point, I’m just happy if they’re still open.

I got a flat on Fri the third 60 miles from home and by the time I got the bike home there was no way to get a new tire and with the holiday I can't even order until Tues. But no worries, the 73 FLH is enjoying the attention!
