Greg, I have a detachable SOLO kit from my '14 Ultra that was used twice if you're interested. I hated the TP and it was off 99% of the time.
Thanks!

Will you make it further east for a Museum Tour this trip? Let me know so I can order red carpet, and other items worthy of your potential arrival !
Unfortunately barring something unforeseen happening, I will not be able to make it.

Re-morning, barely, after my 5 mile walk behind the lawn mower. Off to the Harley store to file my warranty claim for the lens cover, hahahaha.

I got the service manual for my SG. Steering feels loose and I'm going to check the bearings. Lunch is over, eye doctor appointment went well. Looking into laser correction as a permanent solution.

Wow Chris,
I didn't know we could "laser" those bearings tight again.

Check that your eyes are mature. My wife had it done in her 20's and her eyes weren't matured, changed and they cannot do laser again. I think they said the new recommendation is 40.

** Not sure 'mattured' is the right term, but something like that

I've been going to the same place for several years and get a scan of my retinas each time to ensure my eyes are not changing and my prescription remains the same. According the them, I'm a good candidate and I was told that I'd be good for the rest of my life, but may need readers in 10 or 20 years.

I guess I'll have to regulate my paragraph structure more closely. I thought the two separate thoughts could run together in one paragraph as long as I used proper sentence structure.

Then again, you tried to feed us pickled herring... My bad.
