Just can't admit the tire pressure was the problem can ya?

The true track masks symptoms, it doesn't repair the problem.

Your checkbook not mine.

WTH do I know anyway...

Sounds like you've discovered tire pressure is critical on a single track vehicle. Check them before every ride. Remember "T-CLOCS"?

Which part of the True Track I improved handling did you not get? If you haven't tried it then don't comment on whether it makes an improvement or not, and when it comes to torque and hp like this bike has trust me when I say handling performance out ways all.

I am thinking get a crotch rocket if you want to run 100+ all day long...it would appear that your Dyna is not designed for those speeds...just observin'

anyway, I was on the freeways in H-Town yesterday and hit 100 a couple of times...the bike handled smooth and steady, and hit the speed mark quick, but running at that speed in afternoon traffic without a helmet, fairings or a windshield is a wild ride to say the least....

Skinman13 I don't run at a 100 all day long , I just wanted it dialed in so when my wife runs it and we pass a bunch of vehicles or just out with the gang that I know she can hot the 100+ with no issues. It's more of a peak speed than a all day speed.

I think the OP means 100km not mph, it is Canada remember.
