Default Hello

Hello everyone, Kevin here from western MA.
My bike history is: a 1976 Honda 550-4, 1998 FLSTF, and my current bike is a 2002 Roadking.
We Just got back last week from an 8,000 mile trip across Canada and the northern states in rain, cold, snow, and finally some sunshine. No major problems aside from a cracked exhaust which I had welded at a muffler shop for thirty bucks, the foot shifters loosening up again, and a slight leak from the primary. Now if&nbsp\\;I can only figure out why my front tire wore out unevenly and there's a front end wobble at low speeds, I'll be all set. The bike has 58,000 miles on it now. Front wheel bearing?
&nbsp\\;
Pleasure to meet you all....have a safe and happy weekend.
