What did you do to your 18+ softail today?

Yeap, that's why instructions would have been nice. That crap happens? "use anti size" Or at least "This is how the pegs go into the hole."
I didn't even notice the hex sides when I went to install the pegs.
Actually the only instruction that came on the hardware was a sticker saying "Use blue Loctite on all hardware"
I was filming the install so I was installing it once so I could do it without the license plate so I could show it off to the viewers.
Then I was going to cut the camera and install it for real.
Obviously neither happened.

Installed Kuryakyn Reflective Smoke Shields on my FLFBS. Bought it and forgot I had the Oil Pressure gauge there…but tried it on and was OK with it…doesn’t really affect reading it, so they are staying on. 😁 Installed Hex ezCan Harley Davidson accessory manager for HDs. Plugs into CanBus. Pretty cool can control Lights, Horns and Accessories and all accessible with the handlebar controls already on the bike. Installed the new Quad Lock wire attached it to the ezCan so have it in On mode. And while I was there with the seat off, installed the Noco GBC007 Jump start wire that works with my GB40 Boost jump starter that I use in my car as well. Ran it to where the tender wire on the bike goes…so both connectors are together. (That’s my Insta360 One RS on my helmet with a chin mount from chinmount dot com. Got the RS package with the 4K and 360 camera modules.)

Just by pure fact that you're not going through 3~4 feet of air space thats rushing by at speed.
I wear a set of 10dollar or 16$ earbuds on long rides where I want music or directions and just plug it into my phone.
Easy, cheap, better than bike speakers.

Not them but wired earbuds or JBL speakers inside your helmet is gonna be better than any sound bar or infotainment speaker setup.

But, there are some days I want to lose the helmet and still would like some music.
If cop sees you here with earbuds, obviously without helmet, they will pull you over.

I completely agree, I've been using Cardo with JBL for the last 5 years in GT Air and most of the time I'm fine with that.
But, there are some days I want to lose the helmet and still would like some music.

I am getting used to riding most of the time with my Full Face, just because I have the video camera and blue tooth music communications. I have a single wired earbud somewhere, iPhone now uses the charge port for a headphone connection and it has the standard small headphone connection. I am thinking about a wireless ear bud for the 1/2 helmet, but so far the FF is fine.
2 ear buds are illegal in Florida as well, but I haven't heard of anyone getting pulled over for it. They don't even pull over texters here and turn signals are optional equipment.
