That's crazy.
You should figure out how to mount a push broom to the front of that thing.

Yes, I think so. The nails are brand new and both are the same.

I was looking into it already, and even figured out a lighting method. It's gonna glow through the bristles.

Wow, that’s some rotten luck ! Both brand new tires got “nailed”, really sorry to hear that !

In the process of upgrading the audio on my '07 w/ the Rockford Fosgate receiver.
This means the CB is obsolete and so are the switches on the left handlebar.
Has anyone used the momentary PTT switch to trigger a garage door opener?
I like the idea of the switch being 'covert', rather than it being a noticeably different switch added to the bike.

Just spit-balling here...

Now there’s plenty of room for the camera brain as well as the LED controller.

I also received the new tank badges.
High quality, heavy, and curved to match the tank, with very nice chrome.


07 ultra where & price of the tank badges I’m wanting to do it on my 09 UC

I'm not an expert, but I play one on TV. The 2007 uses switches, unlike the 2010-up that use CANBUS. So, in theory, the PTT button simply closes a circuit. So, you should be able to trace those wires and use them for that door opener like you want.
