Hello to all you bagger guys out there. I'm actually a dyna guy but it's at the dealer getting some stuff fixed. I went for a ride on my dad's '08 Street Glide today, and when i started it up the ABS light flashed the entire time i sat there until i took off. The Ododmeter read out says r184. I'm guessing it's a fault code but i've searched here and haven't found anything. I appreciate any help you guys can give me, i know it's under warranty but want to know what it is before i take it there.

 

On my '09 Electra Glide Classic it is normal for the ABS light to flash until you reach (I think) 3 mph or so. Don't know about the '08's.

it will go out after you reach 5mph. its only checking itself. the r 184 is the range i.e. miles to reserve. if you press the button on the side the display will change from miles done to trip to reserve etc. your bikes fine

 

WTF you doing riding your Dad's bike when you don't know what your doing? Did he know you had it?

 

r = Range

 

My Dad is gone for a month at a time for work and my '06 Dyna is at the dealer getting the trans and primary bearings and cases replaced under builetin. My wife has a '07 Dyna and i've been riding around on that but the weather was nice and she was itching for a ride, and since the dealer is taking forever i rode my dads bike.
I know what i'm doing, i bought my bike new in '06 and have almost 19,000 miles on it so i ride it a bit. I'm used to the stripped down Dyna's that i have and not the fancy all the bells and whistles version of my dad's street glide. It is his first Harley and i had mine a while before him and let him ride mine or the wifes bike whenever he wanted so he trusts me and was returning the favor.
I was just checking to see if it had a problem, if it did i was going to take it to the dealer for him to get it fixed before he gets back so he didn't have to deal with it, but it's fine, so i'm off the hook, thanks for the help.

 

Hey tpmurray,

In your sig pic it looks like your tire is way offset to the left. Looks like it's almost rubbing the fender. Is that just an illusion from the pic angle?

Ride safe,

John
