Talking Next Winter Mod Has Arrived

Got my S&S 551CE Easy Start Cams delivered yesterday Direct Harley Parts has great prices and even gives us forum members an extra little discount (every dollar counts). Just waiting on Fedex to deliver the Fule Moto install kit and a 7 day weather forecast that isn't as nice as this one before I take her down for a day. It maybe winter, but we've had some decent riding weather here for the most part this year.

This "should" be the last mod for the winter. I did the painted inner fairing earlier. Doing the cams now. I have a long list of to do stuff, but I better hold off for a while

Seven Day Forecast

The fact that you wrote "decent riding weather" and referred to it as winter, with highs around 80, makes me want to punch you. Sorry. Best Michigan winter in a decade, highs in 40s, and my bikes been in shop since November for repairs. I'm on edge, sorry....

I figured my post of the 7 day outlook would get some mad at me. Especially you guys up north. But with weather like this I just can't make myself take my bike apart until there is a day or two of bad or worse weather forecasted. I don't know how you guys do it up north and especially putting your bikes in the trust of someone else's care for months. I like being able to go out in the garage and tinker with the bike even if I don't have anything to put on it.
