Default 116 Miles

Well since I got my Street Glide 2 weeks ago, today was the first day that there was no rain. So...I called in sick and went for a ride. I sure had fun!!! That was the most theraputic ride I have ever had. I stopped by the stealer and picked up a passing lite mount that does not have a cross bar (Street Glide only) and in the next week or so I'll put it on and post some pics. i also tried out the Cee Baileys windshield. It works great!! I am going to sell it though and get a different size, so if your interested in it drop me a note. (12 inch dark smoke) This was a good day.

I'm glad somebody got to ride today. We had flood warnings all around me. It started raining last night and continued all day today[:@].

Randit...I am going with another Cee Baileys windshield. I have the 12 inch and I think a 10 would be good for me. I am 6-00 and have a 31inch inseam. The windshield I have now splits the road for me. If I sit tall and straight I am ok, If I relax then I am looking through half windshield and half open air. The optical quality is good but it is at a critical point so I will try a 10 inch Cee Baileys. I would not even considder going with a regular windshield after using this one. The design is great!!

P.S. 35 Degrees!!! Are you crazy??????
