Thank you all for the warm welcome !! I have an '05 FLSTCI (?) Heritage Classic sunglo blue. I absolutely love riding it. I'm here to learn. I've only had this, my only, Harley for about 4 years. I'm getting close to about 20k miles, getting ready to do both tires, at the same time do whatever I need to eliminate a pretty bad headshake during deccel at 42 mph. I'm also studying installing one of those automatic primary chain tensioners. A guy I used to work with also suggested replacing the primary chain with an American one saying it would make the bike much quieter. Like I say, I'm here to learn and above all, have fun. Thanks again and ride hard, but safely.

Awesum ride, there Bud. (A guy I used to work with also suggested replacing the primary chain with an American one saying it would make the bike much quieter.) Don't know about that. All machines make noise. And HD's make the best!
