Added a Rammount handlebar mount for my GoPro 9.

 

If there is not one already, add one of those wavy washers for tension. If there is one, it might need to be replaced.

 

Thanks. Washer in place.

Maybe if I leave it to get all rusty and crudded up it will resist the urge to move!

 

I had the same problem and replacing the washer did not help. Two washers did the trick but it was a little difficult to get the second one in.
They are tight now of course.

 

Changed tires a few weeks ago, and finally got around to adding Ride On tire sealant for the balancing properties. 8oz front. 12oz rear.

Rode a 35 mile test-ride. Didn't notice any difference, but I guess that's good since the ride didn't seem unbalanced before.

Since I disassembled and reassembled my control housing during my recent mini ape install, I learned the mechanics of the throttle assist. I never really understood that little star shaped screw head under the control housing. The bar swap led me to read up on it in the service manual. It's just a basic friction shoe that tightens against the throttle tube. Who knew?

Anyway, I tried it out and discovered it actually worked. I was able to spin it CCW (righty tighty) with my index finger about a half turn which allowed my throttle to remain in place on a long 50mph back road. I could twist it off and on, but no snap back which is the intended purpose.

Not sure I'll use it regularly, but it was helpful for a short wrist break.

 

There is somewhere a company that makes a gadget to supposedly make it easy to turn the adjusting screw.

 

Absolutely right about the signs . I suppose the highways agency assumes everyone is using Sat Nav . I find it particularly bad in Greater Manchester . Two signs and then nothing .

 

There's a gadget you can buy that attaches to that star shaped screw that sticks a lever out so you can tighten and loosen easier.
Did you remember to also remove any weights that were on the wheels before?
Love Ride-on...

 

Yep, but thanks for the reminder. I can always count on riders from this thread and HD Forums to be helpful.

 

Be careful with the throttle assist, if you unscrewed it too far the clip inside can pop off causing the throttle to jam. I'm not a fan of them for several reasons. I'm surprised Harley even has them as I would think it could be a liability issue.
