    Head shake

    So if you have wobble with a tire then replace it with a new tire and there's no wobble, what has that got to do with alignment?? I've had wobble with a tire on other bikes and replaced said tire and the wobble is gone so I wouldn't call it BS. Bottom line is there are multiple reasons why you...

    Shoei GT Air vs RF1200 - my test

    Hope you wear earplugs when you ride, they DO help prevent gradual hearing loss over decades of riding. I started wearing them about 15 years ago, now if I forget to put em in I have to stop. I can't believe how loud it is without them. Don't know how I rode for years without them!

    Adjusting headlight on 2014

    Not really sure what the issue is. I've adjusted mine before against a wall at a shopping center at night, you can see the beam go up or down depending on which way you turn the knob, pretty straight forward.

    engine vibration above 4k

    I bought these before...worked good. I slid them on over the stock grips. https://www.amazon.com/Grab-On-Grip-Covers-Fits/dp/B003PDUHF2/ref=sr_1_21?ie=UTF8&qid=1401330678&sr=8-21&keywords=foam+grips+motorcycle

    Akrapovic Exhaust / Anybody?

    Not always, many things are just overpriced. And if the Delkavics only last 100,000 miles who cares they were only $260.00

    Akrapovic Exhaust / Anybody?

    Delkavics......$260 for TWO cans, look and sound fine. It's a tube of metal with a hollow hole going through it.

    Music Trivia

    Nope. Nope. Ok it's been a few days so here's the answer to #2. GLEN CAMPBELL sold more records in 1969 than the BEATLES. His music crossed over to Pop that's why. Poor Glen is I think 78 and suffering from Alzheimer's, his Wife recently put him in a nursing home.

    Flag voids warranty on Harley

    I agree...there's SOME drag. The question I'd have for Harley is how they determined how much drag it takes to ruin a tranny?? And how they KNOW the flags caused it?? Where's the research that shows flying 2 flags is ok but flying 4 will ruin the tranny? I just say it's ******** that they...

    Fine and dandy, the one that uses the chute comes down slower because the chute creates much more drag. Anyway,I don't have to worry, I don't fly flags and I don't buy Harleys.

    engine vibration above 4k

    Give it time to break in, a few thousand miles, should get smoother. Also, foam grips of any kind help with the vibes.

    So if the comparison is accurate why don't they use flags flapping behind cars at the drag strip instead of a chute? It would be cheaper to use flags. Also why don't they use flags flapping above them instead of a chute when they go sky diving? Again flags would be cheaper. A chute totally...
