That’s why I decided to keep my 2012 FLHTK and go back to paper maps and post it notes for navigation. Stress free.

Well now! This is the first I've heard of Harley owners being disgruntled with the Motor Company.

I have found out with Harley Davidson, the spending never ends. I am still buying things for my 2015 RGS that I have had since November 1014.
Ha Ha Ha, you've only been spending XTRA cash for 8 1/2 years. July of 2023 will be 20 years for me. Actually the spending for me begain in June 2003. I went in to pay cash an the bike I wanted had been sold over the weekend. So I had almost a full month to spend before the bike ever made it to the dealer just south of Atl.
Just like Sam Kinison the late comedian says,,, OHH-OOH-OOH,, it never ENDS!

I avoid night riding. If it rains I put it inside the dash holders.

My boat isn't exactly a fishing boat and it's vintage being built in 1976,motor is a 460 Ford.
I can rebuild it for less than buying a new outboard of any decent size.
