Just 134 miles today, but perfect weather. It's hard to imagine enjoying a bike more than I enjoy this one.

Tomorrow is looking good but super windy. I haven't detailed the bike since last year I may just take a day to shine her up. I'm doing the demo event sunday so i'll get plenty of riding in then!

I know how you feel. I used to have an '06 88TC Low Rider, but this bike with the 103TC and additional front disc, is the bomb!

AND you should see how it runs with a Stage I upgrade...

Maybe one day! My next expense will be a set of cast wheels. Lovely as the wire wheels are, they are hard to maintain and I'd rather run tubeless anyway. I also like the way that cast wheels evoke the original Low Rider more closely.

Forget stage 1, get a good set of heads, a .030" gasket set, cams and a tuner.. you would be amazed at how much power, bolt on power can be made.....

Wasn’t done cleaning yet but couldn’t resist snapping a picture of this tank reflection after a good cleaning

I don't disagree and have a Stage IV upgrade on my Bagger, but that can be a little much for many who ride the LR. He also lives in England, where the laws are very different. Don't know if could get the full effects of a major upgrade with the cat still installed. A Stage I upgrade is more than enough for most Low Riders...95 ft. lbs. of torque on this 660 lb. bike is pretty strong...you can get up to 120, or more, but why?

I only ride cast wheels and wouldn't do it any other way. There are multiple reasons for this, but number one is the ability to possibly do a roadside repair...

Being able to plug punctures is a major consideration in my decision. Any tips on keeping the wheels beautiful? We can't totally avoid mucky roads here in UK.
