This my reason for being here.

I'm on my 3rd Harley, the last two were in the 70s but my Blackline FXS has a ton more bells and whistles than my '75 FXE. I looked at several sites but I liked this one the most because of the thread choices. And I've learned things, just from being on here today, which is my first day. And had some laughs.

I found this site while looking for the best flip flops to wear while riding a Harley. Then I stumbled on the gas cap thread and I am still waiting to find out the proper placement of said cap while fueling.

Make sure to put winter air in them, In whatever brand everyone tells you is the best! Summer air does not work well in the winter.
