Getting ready for our trip up north next month. Changed all fluids and cleaned the oil filter.

Went for a nice 70 mile putt before doing the maintenance on the Softail for our upcoming trip.

Finished the 10,000 service, and made some changes (what do you think)?
We leave this coming Friday for a two week ride.

Cleaning her up after going through the list and making the other changes.

Just dropped in a pair of Progressive Springs (heavy duty) in my '08 Deluxe....hoping for the best!

I purchased the bike at the beginning of the year adding some custom mods and doing my usual due diligence when picking up a piece of machinery or equipment that I don't know about.

The only item left to take of is to adjust the rear suspension! I'm excited! ready to take it out (Austin to Houston, TX to visit family and friends for a few days) for a short trip. The bike has 25,000; it looks great and appears to run great as well....

Welcome to the forum!

You should see some improvement from those. Take a look at this Report LINK.
