You guys do know there's an area on behind the bike trailers here right?
Might be worth looking through to get some ideas and feedback from other builders. buyers & users.

I did not! Thanks! My mind is reeling, thinking about a MC camper trailer now. DANG YOU GUYS!

 

Those are some amazing wheels! Really like that look!

QUOTE=Bobster109;18409469]I finally got caught up with family chores, from helping the stepmother avoid getting hosed by Roto Rooter, and actually getting her problem fixed, freak'n thieves! But got here money back after threatening to take the issue to the local TV News station! Dealing with them when you need a plumber, is like going to McDonalds for a good Rib Eye!

Then spending a day driving to South Haven Mich. to pick my annual supply of Blueberries, the a day washing, freezing and bagging them!

Now finally today I got to do some road miles! I picked up and had the Michelin Commander II mounted and finally had time to put it back on the bike. What a difference these tires make, for touring duties which is what my Bitchless Heritage is used for, it is a way better ride quality than the stock Dunlop's!


Then I also picked up a new Wide Touring Mustang seat, WOW what a comfortable improvement over the 12 year old factory seat!! Only took about a 50 mile ride today, but it was a huge improvement. I will be doing a Lake Michigan road trip next week, and will get back with others just how these upgrades make getting more miles between breaks. On thing is for sure, this old *** really appreciates what I experienced so far.


Slowly but surely, the "Bitchless Softglide" is coming together!

I switched it back to Bitchen mode, then went for a couple hour ride. I'll change back later when I head south in the fall. But till then I leave it setup stock for close to home run'n. I will even keep trying to get the old lady to join me. Id sure have a more enjoyable time with her along.

 

I am now deep into the restoration of my well worn and somewhat abused swingarm bag today, and the past few days. So far I have stripped it, dyed it, resealed it. Next will be saddle soap and waxing. But it takes time between steps. At fist, I honestly thought it was ruined, so I've made fantastic progress and I'm happy with the results so far.
The first pic is from the other day after a good cleaning, the last pic is on my desk after dye and sealer.

 

Getting the next generation hooked...

 

Rode it for the first time in 3.5 weeks. Been out of town on a different bike. Always good to get back on it after a time away!

 

Got tins back from powder coat. I couldn't be more pleased. I'll put the new emblems on tomorrow.

 

Added the informer set to my gas tank. Harley stators being what they are (I'm on my third one), I appreciate having a volt meter. The gas cap is a nice compromise for a locking cap. If you lose the key you can still get the cap open if necessary.

 

^^^ Love the speedometer, that's on my short list!
