New guy here.

I live in Texas riding a 2001 Electra classic I bought from cycle trader in Mar. I picked it up in Daytona Fl and within two days got it ready for a drive back to El Paso. Lost my 2014 Streetglide last year due to knee replacement. Didn't make it back to work when they said I would and I had to let it go to pay the bills. I'm ready for a new surgery and I paid this one in cash so I couldn't lose it too. Could use some helpful suggestions trying to get this ride as comfortable and safe as possible.

Welcome from Wisconsin.

If it's over 30k miles check the cam chain tensioners. Many threads on this.
