Tech tip for the hard to find black Electra Glides. The upper surfaces on the inner fairing which is a matte black were fading to a grey hue on the outer corners most exposed to sunlight. Found a product at KMart called "Wipe New" for 15 bucks in the "as seen on tv" section. Armor All and the Harley Black Restorer didn't work well. This stuff turned the grey back to black, at least for now. It's advertised as good for two years. We'll see but it made a big improvement for now and it supposedly works on headlights although you're warned not to use it on paint.

<p></p><p> </p><p>The trip was awesome, nice weather for the most part, just the haze from the fires out in CA. Other than that I can't complain. Met Greg in Denver and his wonderful family had me over for dinner one night. We had some great riding.</p>
