What Did You Do To Your Freewheeler Today?

[MDO]

Here in STL, we are having a stretch of good weather. I checked my tire pressures, all good & then decided to drain & replace my primary fluid, as I had 1 last quart of HD Formula + to use. It has only been about 5,000 miles & the drained fluid was filthy, I'm assuming due to clutch material. There was no metal on the magnetic drain plug.

I managed to get a quick wax job on the paint & the Lucas speed wax I have used for years continues to impress me.

When I make the switch to Redline, I'm going to try and go longer, but it just bothers me that the primary fluid gets so dirty.

I will get a nice ride in tomorrow, as I have a granddaughter's birthday gift to deliver.

I got a nice 55 mile ride in...I took the scenic route

My Freewheeler is running great & I'm liking the new fuel/voltage gauge.

I didn't think I would be this excited over new instrumentation.

I should have replaced it years ago.

I had to do some real work today, replacing the carburetor on my old Lawn Boy mower.

A new carb/gasket for $12 shipped from Florida. This is my 2nd replacement & the old green girl is running great again.

Tomorrow I will get a nice ride in as I'm going to my youngest sons house & him & my oldest son are venturing out to a local restaurant for dinner to stimulate the economy.

Five and a half hours, 230+ miles up through Bandera, Kerrville, back down one of the Sisters, mandatory stop at The Bent Rim, back home. Feeling human again.

Nice ride today to my sons house, but it was above 90° & too damn hot! I also made my 1st. trip to a restaurant & a sit down dinner. Very nice.

My favorite part of a sit down lunch while out riding Saturday was the air conditioning.

Changed oil in my 2016 Freewheeler this morning. I used 3.5 quarts to bring the level up to recommended fill level. I used red line motorcycle oil.

Cleaned and oiled my air filter, it was pretty dirty

I am riding out to my sons again for lunch, which is always a nice ride of about 60 miles roundtrip.

We are having a great stretch of weather here in STL & I'm going to take advantage of it.

You probably get a lot of sand where you are.

Last time I checked mine it was not very dirty, but was dry as a bone.

I bought some different oil for it. It's a spray on type, vise the K&N oil you squirt on the pleats.

Yes indeed, there is a lot of sand in the air here all the time

I washed it for her yesterday so she could get it dirty today.

 

[LadyonaMission]

I rode mine 360 miles.

 

[MDO]

I didn't get to ride today as life got in the way, but I took my gas receipts and calculated my milage for the last four fill ups, which is a good mix of city and highway and it averaged just over 39 mpg.

That's where it was about a year ago.

A pic before we set out for a 235 mile ride this past Sunday.
