New Guy checking in from East Tennessee . . .
Welcome from the flatlands of Illinois! My wife and I were on several different big touring bikes over the years. I’m 59 now and while physically I could manage the bike with her on it, it wasn’t much fun in parking lots and stop & go traffic in town. Several of our older friends were moving...- HDUSA1

Anyone using the HD Cool Flow Fan to Reduce M8 Heat
Not a fan of fans. A catless headpipe and tuner makes a world of difference.- HDUSA1

Well it is time!!!
Wow, I’m shocked and trembling with emotion. Thank you for your service and for keeping us all safe. I recently lost my dad and you are correct that family must come first. I think of him every day and was beside him to the end. May peace be with you and your family. Fair winds my friend.- HDUSA1

Thrasin Brand Inner Shift Arm Review
Well, the $22.79 Jerbor came today from Amazon. It is really nicely machined from billet stock, anodized well, and overall a quality piece!!! The set screw was a bit longer than I like as I want it to be flush when tightened. A quick trip to Menards took care of that with a shorter stainless...- HDUSA1

Possibly some good news on Avon Trike tires... Now Bad News...
Yes, got the standard response from him several times before and not holding my breath to ever see the tire. Just keeping my order in to be in the queue if they ever do start getting some in. I don’t think he really knows what’s going on in their own conglomerated company. Honestly, even if...- HDUSA1

I know. I sent him a reply asking when they will be available in the US again. I’ve had one on order from Summit for over a year and a half now.- HDUSA1

Possibly some good news on Avon Trike tires... Now Bad News...
Got this response from Don at Avon Tyre a few minutes ago: Hi Carl, The Avon factory in Melksham was closed a few years ago. We moved production of Cobra Chrome, Spirit ST, and 3D Supersport to a Goodyear/Dunlop factory in France. Other ranges are being produced elsewhere in Europe. Kind...- HDUSA1

Possibly some good news on Avon Trike tires... Now Bad News...
I got a hat, T-Shirt, and some stickers! A lot of confusion going on. Cooper bought out Avon. Cooper was then bought out by Goodyear. Avon tyre in England gets shut down. They then sold off the Avon car tire racing name, tech, and moulds to Nova Motorsports. Its sister Nova Motorcycles bought...- HDUSA1

Thrasin Brand Inner Shift Arm Review
I know it’s not the same quality as a Kraus, but just ordered this Jerbor from Amazon for $22.79. There were some other ones in the $40-$60 range, but they look like machined cast pot metal. This Jerbor says it’s CNC machined from premium aluminum alloy. If it’s junk when I get it next week...- HDUSA1

Need Advice: What Should I Do With My Dad's 2008 Victory Vision

We rode in several V2V rides and I was Secretary of one of the largest Local VMC Chapters in Terre Haute Indiana. After a heart wrenching decision, in...- HDUSA1

Wall Art Fender
My wife says I never throw anything away. True to form, I found a place in the Game Room to hang the junk cut off piece of fender from the Roadsmith conversion. She’ll be so happy….- HDUSA1

Cruise Control doesn't work in 3 wheel mode.
To follow up on my bike. I ordered a Technoresearch VCM-TR4B Centurian Super Pro with a single use license rather than paying the dealer multiple times to experiment with the settings. I’ve since spoken to Jim at Roadsmith to pick his brain and finally got the answer I was looking for...- HDUSA1

Rear tire recommendations (Michelin CrossClimate 2s anyone?)
Welcome from the flatlands of Illinois! I live down 4 miles of gravel road out on the farm, so I try to be careful not to get wide grooved tires that pick up and throw rocks inside the wheel wells and cracking the paint. Once the tires on my Roadsmith need replacing, I’m putting on BF...- HDUSA1

UBS Bolt Recall
Integrated Starter Generator. When it breaks, they are saying you hear a rattling noise coming from that area. Of the two ISG bolts, the one that is breaking has an updated part number. On the head of the bolt, the factory one has a “10” on it. The replacement bolt has a “10” with a “J” under...- HDUSA1

UBS Bolt Recall
Over on one of the other forums, there are several guys replacing the 2 ISG bolts while they are in there. Sounds like it’s not a part of the recall, but they are having troubles with one of them breaking as well. Here’s a cut and paste: “There are two ISG bolts. Only one is shown on the Honda...- HDUSA1
