Thank you for that, Flying_Burrito_Brother. That is another idea. btw nowhere in the UK, sell Ride-On that I have found at the present. I have found some on Amazon.com and emailed will they supply/sell me and ship to the UK.

Impressive product no doubt. As for RideON...their website is horrible. I was looking for a demonstration or PDF that shows how it works. I don't want a dissertation...LOL.

I have Dyna Beads and there is a problem when checking your tire pressure. The stem must not be at the bottom of the tire, as the beads somehow keep the valve stem from closing - - as soon as you check the pressure air will come out and continue.
I have to have the stem at 3 or 9 in order to prevent the problem.
Anyone else have this issue?
Thanks

Seriously...how hard is it to roll your bike 1.5 feet forward?

Great looking bikes wachuko, in fact you all have neat bikes. When, when my bike is repaired I have a few ideas for her.


The saga goes on:


The latest in the repairs to my bike are:- HOG Assist UK have been let down by vehicle breakdown/transporters. Apparently no one is interested, and this is an Insurance job. HOG Assist were contacted by my Harley Insurance to organise a pick up, from my home, and take the bike back to Stratstone HD Birmingham, UK. No interest whatsoever. I have now organised Black Bear, (Lind), Newmarket Suffolk UK to pick her up Thursday. The cost I dont care, just want to get back on her and put some miles on the clock. Apparently HD Guarantee does not cover Wheels and Discs, so I have organised for Ride-On or those Beads to be installed in both wheels. Started up my bike a few minutes ago and P1475 is there again, even after clearing it from memory. Thats something else B.B. will look into.


Now going to search the net for a few ideas. With my wife being a 'Hedgewitch' (and no that is nothing to do with the black arts), I dare say it will be something "Witchy". We had a Pentacle on the back of the Road King and everytime I go out Marysia, (my wife), says a spell to protect me and the bike. Roll on this time next week.

Visit our website!!

We offer Dyna Beads and Ride-On TPS and both work VERY well to balance your tires. We've never had issues with either!
