Instructions were to leave bandage on for 3 days and no restrictions and to try and use shoulder as much as possible. It was a clavicle excision so basically as fast as my body can heal.

Yeah the standard tank fuel gauge is ridiculous. Why is it on the back side of the "cap" sloping away from the rider? And I found out tonight mine has quit working entirely. It was showing full after putting 212 miles on tank. If I do get the combo Speedo/Tach, my 2005 Deluxe will not be able to take advantage of all of the combo gauge's features. It will show the fuel level but not the estimated remaining fuel range. The gear indicator isn't functional for that model year, either.

Replaced all of the bulbs on my ‘17 Slim with Custom Dynamics LED ones.

Wish I could find a complete kit to change my 96 over to LED. Custom Dynamics doesn't go earlier than 99.

Received my new Memphis Shades windscreen but haven't swapped yet. Ordered a pair of Kuryakyn 6205 grips just now!

Took my bike out for a spin today. New risers are superb and perfect in every way. This is the first time I have rode my bike and felt it was complete.

That looks a bit intimidating! Hopefully I can work up to something like that.

just got done changing out my 21" skinny for a 16" cat killer!! I love the bike a 2005 softail standard but never liked that skinny front tire!! up here in the Dakotas some of the roads have a bit to be desired!! recently had a scare on a freshly chip sealed road which is what prompted the decision!! now I need to hunt down a better fender!!
