The Street Bobs first time on the lift -all the way up! I climbed up on the bike from the right side, sat on the bike a little, then climbed down off the bike on the left side. I can roll the lift with the bike on it. I'm going to trust it and leave the bike up on the lift while I sleep.

I went to the garage and kissed mine, happy to know I bought it when I did. I'll never sell mine! The new softies may be nice, but they're not for me.

that pit posse puller bearing installer set is garbage for the money you pay for it. The set I bought you couldn't even screw the nut onto the puller without it getting stuck halfway in so I know your frustration

Had a long talk with her and assured her that we will be o.k even if Harley did give up on the dyna line.

I have a 14 V-Strom 1000 next to my Fat Bob; they get along famously!

The Strom is a fantastic bike, you are going to love it. It does everything well.

Put Progressive 412 rear shocks on my 07 FXD. Wow...what a difference from OEM! Went out for a 70 mile ride yesterday which only reinforced that I need to upgrade my front suspension now!
