I really like the LRS. They did a good job with it.
I'm confused though. How do you get to work if you don't take one of the bikes?

Yeah...I'm liking the LRS...but I haven't ridden it yet...it's the wife's and she's pretty possessive...LOL....we have to take our cagers from time to time for work related reasons....

I've been able to post one photograph on my new guy thread, but could not add anymore to it. I think I've added photographs to my album, but I'm not sure who has access to this either. Lost. Guidance gladly accepted.
Use this button...then select how you want to upload your pics....device (computer) or a link.....

What roll bag is that?

Harley Davidson soft leather handlebar/fork bag. It was installed on my wife's 2008 Sportster Nightster... kept it when it was traded in.... figured I would use it until I get a matching one in brown leather.

Two reasons.
  1. I like the classic look of the standard windshield better (although I know the windsplitter works very well.)
  2. Because I sit much higher than the stock position and knew that I have options to make mods to the standard screen.
