I'll give it a shot!

I've been using various forms of Arnica on my back for a few years with good results... My wife and I found some CBD Oil that works really well. But, I've never really tried any of them on my wrist.

It's kind of a bummer, the current angle of my handlebars, is relatively comfortable. But, I lean forward a touch and end up slouching. A couple of times heading home today, the first fingers on my right hand went numb. Had to find some downhill coasts to pull in the clutch and dangle my hand for a few... I was tyring to work on keeping an angle in my wrist as well.


I also ordered a second matching top clamp for my Slim today, so i can try to mill the bolt holes a little oblong so they match up to the Deluxe style pullback risers... Hoping this helps some too!

I put a Reckless Fairing on my '13 Heritage with a Speaker and amp set up. I really enjoy it, but to be honest, I kinda miss my clear shield on there.

Removed the SE Ventilator, sprayed out the throttle body, and installed the DK Customs 606 with external breather system/catch can.

And I seriously think the bike just sounds happier now! Probably my imagination though.

sounds familiar. I've been very happy with my wild1 inc., mini-apes. combined with the back rest, I've found myself much happier on the long hauls.




you guys have some beautiful bikes. makes me pine for the days when I had cash to spare on the pretty stuff.

Cleaned up sensors in the TB, plus only clean, oxygen rich, air going into the combustion chambers...instead of hot, oily, oxygen depleted air...makes sense that it sounds happier, and will run a bit stronger.

"Sprayed out the throttle body", What's that?

Just cleaning mine & fitting an external breather, but inside the throttle is very coated in engine oil.

Nice bike Otter.

I do like those Pro Streets. I have Radial Sweepers on mine (they came on the bike). I have been contemplating swapping them out. How do you like the Pro Streets? Are they nice and loud?
