I prefer rainx blinker fluid.It helps keep the lenses clean and makes the rain water roll off to reduce wind drag and helps the fuel economy.You can get on sale at advanced auto parts every 5th week of the month.

if you change the air in your tires, would you do the same if you are using nitrogen, I thought that was a lot more stable?

I should have known better.

You're welcome.

Silly me. I had new tires put on my bike and had the same problem. Went back to the dealer and he told me my air wasn't balanced for the new tires so I had to buy specially balanced air for the new tires. I bet he just installed my old air in the wong tires.

I'm not too mechanically inclined, but, I have a wallet and a do-rag.
Will the warranty cover the air change? It sounds complicated.

Listen,
If you have your own air compressor you can change your own air. But in order to not void the warranty or ESP you must install a HD factory air cleaner on you air compressor, and use HD 20W50 in the compressor crank case. The other requirement is you must have the HD tire pressure gage. You cannot change you own air until you have had your first HD 500 mile service.
