Anyone ride Harleys??

SchnitzelReef · 08/24/2016, 02:58 PM

Got a new toy last weekend.

Been riding on the street for 10 years, but this is my first cruiser. Wife didn't like the Jap sport bike, so I sold it and got this. 2016 street glide special.

Anyone else here ride?

Only had it for 3 days 177 miles, and it's already at the shop for some upgrades.

I don't ride, but I know a sweet ride when I see one. Nice score!

That bike is beautiful. Love it. I'm not allowed to ride a motor cycle. Whipped I know.

Here is my 2000 Screamin Eagle Road Glide.. Had it for 17 Years in October... Had 3 other Harleys in that time, But, I have never let this one go....

That's a good looking bike. It's not in my budget right now but I would love to get one, one of these days.

Built me a full on custom '06 Road Glide and rode the crap out of it.

For some strange reason, I decided I needed a new one so got a '13 road Glide ultra. But now I don't ride as much as I used to.

Found this on the back of my Fat Tire frosty when I got home with the new bike.

Nice looking ride you picked up. So what upgrades are you adding?

oigimsar · 08/29/2016, 08:02 AM

Beautiful Bike, Nick. I love the matt finish

So basically dechromed it. Looks good.

Any motor mods for more power?

My '06 I built the 88" to a 95" and a few custom goodies. Dynoed 103 HP/104 Tq at the rear wheel.
The '13 is still all stock though.

Yep, no chrome, handle bars, and slip ons. No engine mods, this 103 seems to have lots of power. I added CFR slip ons, so the bike sounds a lot better. Eventually I'll do an air cleaner and headers, but for now this will do.

Crusty Old Shellback · 09/02/2016, 09:18 PM

The 103 is OK, but not near the power my 95 had.
A good pipe, free flow air cleaner and a good tune should wake it up and make it respectable.

2013 Deluxe here. Did a few mods....
