    I agree, that Harley stuff may cost a lot, but the quality is outstanding.

      Thanksgiving Day is tomorrow and I have to say that I’m thankful that when I fell roughly 15’ off a ladder while cutting a tree branch, I didn’t get impaled by the chainsaw I was using and was still running when I fell.
      I broke 4 ribs on my right side and the humerus bone in my upper right arm, immediately making me a temporary lefty(that was in early August)!
      I managed to get an infection in October that has had me in the hospital and now two extended care facilities for IV antibiotics and I’m getting physical therapy, I’ve also lost 42.7lbs since October 16th(initially because the aromas of many food items just made me want to hurl and I’m still experiencing that to some degree.
      The good thing about all of this is that I’m getting better(still won’t be able to ride till at least the early part of the riding season in Ohio), but I’m not getting better at a pace I’d like to be getting better at.
      As soon as I am remotely capable, I’m gonna work on pulling the “tins” off my bike to have a guy, who does good pinstripe work, redo the pinstripes that are on my bike and to paint them on parts that got damaged when I dropped the bike early spring of this year.
      My mom used to always say that I was/am an accident looking for a place to happen, sometimes I think I still go out of my way to prove her right.
      She’s no longer here, but she’s still watching over me and I’m thankful that I know she’s still there even though I can’t see her!
      I’m also thankful that I found your channel 3 or 4 years ago and I get to live vicariously through you, your family, and your videos!

    I did switch back, heated grips and shifter pegs and the switchback foot pegs for my highway pegs. I haven’t done the floorboards yet. Let me know how you like them after you get some miles on them.

    I'm gonna be that person. The majority of HD cost more / better quality, but they have lemons, and not the lemonade kind. I have a great (but long) HD heated grip story. 'So easy any one can install them, why pay a dealer'. Short version, Grips $350 (on sale), wire harness $198. 1 hour to "install". I installed the grip side, ran wires under tank, then had my dad wire the harness to the battery. Another 3.5 hours to figure out why they didn't work. Apparently the red hot wire going to the in line fuse of the grips wires doesn't need to be connected to the fuse box?!?!?! Seriously my dad found a 2" gap in the wires, he spliced and remove a couple feet of wire so there was less to tidy up. Grips are awesome now!! Told you it was long. Laughed so hard at the upside down snow shoe description. and the collection looks super. Laugh even when you want to yell, then ride it away.

    Us dedicated unsupported EVO and older riders go past the dealerships without even a look. Nothing to see there, folks. RIP HD Inc and their ghinese accessories and their offshore sub-assemblies. F Jochen, FVVT, FCVO. We bow our heads and solemnly remember Sears, another American icon ruined by corporate greed. Craftsman tools were also made in ghina in their final 2 years. You defensive poser Karens just sit tight and wait for your recall notice from Hardley D.
