What Did You Do To Your Freewheeler Today?

[JTJersey]

Installed a new Clearview windshield , 17.5" high, stock width with the vent. I can look easily over it and helmet buffering has been eliminated . I had the stock 16", with 20" being the only other stock option was too tall for me. Overall very pleased

That's the thing with windshields, you've got to buy 3 or 4 of them before you get the combo that works for you. One of the first mods on my '21 Free was a Memphis Shades fairing/windshield combo. Took me two years to get the height and forward position, windshield height and angle right. Still glad I did it.

Pics?

 

[Swede]

I'll have to work on that Pics thing. That's a little above my pay grade.

Finally replaced the front tire on my '21 Free. Got 19,089 miles out of it (not the original) with a bit over 2/32" tread showing. Heading to SC soon so figured I'd better get it done. $406 with labor & tax at Atlantic County Harley NJ. Got me out in an hour and 10 minutes. Perfect time to make it to lunch. New Dunlop tire tread depth is 6/32" if anybody cares.

Why does a motorcycle tire cost twice the price of a similar quality car tire?

Rode 55 miles to have breakfast with the ROMEO'S.

Was discussing that very thing with the wife. I've tried pricing the Dunlops online and found them cheaper than Harley, but when they factor in shipping it's usually more.

Yep, it's dirty. BUT I did figure out how to post a pic.

Jeesh, do you ever wash that?

Posting pictures is much more important that washing your bike.,

So far, only when it rains.

Got my Love Jugs , I do see a drop in cylinder and oil temp. At a 100 degrees and 75 mph for 40 miles, cylinder was 290 and 270, with oil now at 215. Gotta believe the real difference will be in city traffic. I did wire in a better switch. The little button on each fan was a pain

 

[Swede]

Installed DK Custioms cooling deflector wings today. If it's below 100 degrees tomorrow I'll test them.

 

[Swede]

The cooling wings seem to do their job. Not quite as much buffeting.
Also did the 1000 mile service. Hope the 5000 comes up before winter sets in.

 

[JTJersey]

Out an about in the swamps of South Jersey in 73° weather and it's only September 3. Looks like a cold winter coming. Found what passes for a "picturesque" spot and stopped to take a quick p as in pic.

 

[Jarhead1775]

Took a little 3-day trip up to San Luis Obispo over HWY 1 PCH and over to Los Banos and then the I-5 back to San Diego. Think it was 1063-mile round trip. Last leg of the trip was about 450 miles. Wanting to take a trip up old HWY 395 to at least Lone Pine maybe farther if I get an itch.

BTW, anybody done an Iron Butt? That's on my bucket list. Any recommendations?

Took a long way home, despite occasional rain and stopped on old Delsea Drive near the last steel grid bridge in South Jersey in the background. Rt 55 freeway, on the other side of the creek that you can't see in the pic, parallels this road which doesn't get anywhere near the traffic it used to, which is fine by me.

That's how I like to run my errands. By the way I was down in Jacksonville last week, but it was a one dayer in my Jeep for a wedding. Wish I'd had more time (and money ). Couldn't stay. I'll catch you eventually.

I look forward to meeting up with you

I rode west today thru the country side to Penny Farms, a very laid back rode with Spanish Moss hanging from the Southern Oak Trees

Nice pic! Have to ride that road one day.

Freewheeler got the DK filter relocation kit and a 10 row Jagg cooler. I choose to mount it away from the front cylinder with better airflow
