Yup. Gotta take the caliper off to bleed it. No biggie.

Re: the missing rotor....I have had the wheel, caliper, rotor, and sprocket off and on a dozen times verifying different fits. I need to cut 3/8 off my sprocket bolts before I can apply loctite and final torque so that pic was just my last test fit of the last change to the sprocket. i'm hoping to get the bolts modified tomorrow.

Washed and detailed the bike this evening after riding to work all week like most weeks. While wiping down the exhaust I noticed scrape marks from leaning too far. Bassani road rage 3 and 13.5 rear shocks. Probably need to calm down a little when riding but don't see that happening lol.

Check exhaust system heat shields.

Removed the Power Vision; I've had my fun auto tuning for the year, the bike is running strong

Installed the #70900475 digital speedo/tach; a big shout out to Anthony at BoardtrackerHD. Flawless transaction, a great price, and fast shipping; nice...

Grew tired of the 2/3rd's fogged up OEM speedometer junk; HD should be ashamed of themselves for not making this 70900475 gauge standard OEM on the Dyna. It's always nothing but taking the cheap route for HD.

As to the question of the CANbus non-ABS bikes and this gauge; the ABS light is out, there were no issues, and the new gauge is flawless and a true pleasure to look at. How I love an analog RPM needle Tucci, order it...

Took the marriage ride and locked it to the ECM, set the trip B to watch the countdown. It was a beautiful ceremony, and I did shed a tear






Home, dove back in the shower, and the grill is lit; a few folks are coming over for steaks and some of my homebrew.

I just love this bike, the changes over the last few months have truly enhanced her. And next up, the primary. This forum may be in a downward spiral, but we enthusiasts are still gonna enthuse, no matter come what may

A great day with my Dyna; upgrading and riding, and now, thank God, the Tiki Bar is open!






Edited to add: no, that is not a scratch on my fuel tank; I'd lose my nut over a scratch. It's just the lighting

I won't be doing a lot to my Dyna besides trying my best to keep it running from here on out. Stopped at the local dealer today to pick up a new limited edition Guns and Roses HD shirt for my son and walked over for a good close look at the new HD bikes. Felt sick to my stomach afterwards and left. Old Dynas hopefully will live on for a LONG LONG time!!!! Even the new blacked out SGS and RGS turned me off.

looks like the speedo fuel and the old fuel guage do not agree. that's odd. edit... maybe it's the light. i see 4 bars and two are brighter than the others.

Yea, it was just the lighting, it was hard to get a decent image of the LED's. My left tank side fuel gauge is way out of whack, and the +2" over Wide Glide tubes and 2" tank lift made it worse. I need to pull that sending unit and tweak it or buy some chrome covers to put over it and pretend it doesn't exist any longer. A fuel gauge on an HD; still can't get my mind wrapped around that nonsense.

The new gauge has a huge array of color options; I'm going to play with the settings and see what looks best. What looks good in the garage is one thing, but behind the polarized shields on my helmets is another thing completely. The yellow disappears, the white #600 setting on the new gauge is easily readable...

Are you saying to check that they are on tight or under them for leaks in the exhaust?
