    Hey John,
    get rid of that OEM rear axle when you do your wheel swap. Either run the PM or the Kraus.
    I have installed both, but I am definitely more partial to the PM. The OEM rear axle is completely inferior with those cams.
    Also throw in some alloy art swing arm bushings and Cush drive.
    But most importantly buy a Missing Link from rak and pull industries so you can get your swing arm/rear wheel squared up and aligned properly.
    Every single one that we see comes right out of the Harley Davidson factory misaligned.
    The Missing link, solves this problem.
    And it’s night and day difference once installed properly.
    These are a couple minor things I did to my street glide that made a world of improvement in handling of the bike.
    😊

    Big John - glad you and the boys are safe and back home from that epic journey. Figured that between the distance and spotty cellphone coverage you’d be hard-pressed to try and edit and upload any content. Sounds like all went well and the bikes performed wonderfully. Just returned myself from a run to Sturgis and laid down about 2800 miles on my old ‘03 FLHTCI Anniversary edition. Ran like a champion up and back. 🙏🏻🙏🏻. Looking forward to the new content when you get to it after family obligations. As always, stay safe brother 🤜🏼🇺🇸

    What an amazing trip that must have been! How did you like the Road Sofa? That's the seat I'm looking at right now for my new 2024 road Glide. I'm also looking at different light wheel wheel options. If it's not too much trouble, could you weigh your stock wheels when they come off and also weigh the new wheels? Right now I'm looking at the Harley forged wheels but nobody seems to know how much they weigh or how much the stock wheels weigh. Another option I'm looking at are BST wheels. I know how much those weigh and know how much the 2016 Road Glide stock cast aluminum wheels weigh (17.5 lbs and 17.5 lbs according to a video by Moonshine Harley). Thanks!

    Is all cool. I', envious. I'm interested in knowing how to find accommodations if I did a trip like you did. It seems to me that just travelling blind w/o pre-planned motel/hotel stays would be very very frustrating. I'm not sure of that though. I'm willing and able to do the miles but when I am tired, I get damned cranky and not wanting to deal with "No Vacancy". What do you do to zero-in on a place to rest your head?

    • @Country-Marshal
      @Country-Marshal Месяц назад

      It's usually not that hard to get a room, most of the time. Unless there's some sort of event in the area it's relatively easy. When I'm "Nomading", I'll ride til about noon, then I pull out a book I never leave home without. It's called "The Next Exit" find it at any major bookstore. This book has almost every major highway in the country. They're listed by State. Find the state you're in, the highway you're on and every exit has a list of Hotels, motels, campgrounds, restaurants, gas stations and attractions. Pick the hotel you want, Google it, then you can call to check availability and reserve. I usually decide the exit by how many miles I plan on doing or say I'll ride til 5pm, estimate the arrival time and pick my exit. It has never failed me. This book and a full atlas go with me on every road trip. It's about a $50 investment. Try it, I think you'll like it. Also I update both every 4 or 5 years. I hope this helps ease your concerns. Ride hard, die free!
