I looked into those tire balancing and sealant products. I run Dunlop Elites on my 21 Ultra Limited. Not sure with other manufacturers do the same but if you use those liquid balancers on Dunlop Tires, those products will void your tire warranty.

This is an unfortunate occurrence with the less expensive LED lights - not properly EMI/RFI shielded which leads to lots of interference with other electronics. It's exactly why I stick with Custom Dynamics stuff. They are not cheap but they are some of the best.

No problem at all since Ride On provides 24 hour protection. That's just an excuse for the tire mfg to skip out on the tab. If they actually did their research they would find that products like Ride On are way better than wheel weights. The Ride On website is loaded with data on the R&D that went into the product. If the military and police departments are fine with it I'm more than happy to write off the tire mfg warranty. Plus the quality and smoothness of the ride on my SGS now with Ride On in my new Metz rubber is far and away the best decision I made. No weights to be concerned with. Also if I gain the added value of puncture protection that will keep me moving and get me home I could care less what the tire mfg has to say about it. 😀

I have a small pile of parts laid out now. It's a surprise though. Still waiting on powder coat to be finished.

Oh, and I just found the Bassani pipe I had on my Street Glide is now offered in black chrome. I'm 100% on board with that! As soon as the rest of my medical bills are paid off, that bad boy is mine!

I gotta tell ya, me and that open primary belt would not play well together. Either my foot or my pant leg would end up inside the whole thing.

Chopped Tourpack and Klock Werks windshield. What a difference that makes!
