235 lbs here with bags and camping gear. Never felt like I needed any suspension upgrade. T-Rex skid plate.

I owned a 2003 Gen 5 and now have a 2023 Gen 6. The Gen 5 had much better weather protection, but I didn’t like it in the heat and humidity areas during the summer. Too much of a good thing. Gen 5 had a much higher top end speed. Gen 6 is governed to 112 mph ish (I’m told). Gen 6 is...

Have you ridden a new Harley with the Milwaukee 8?

Well, who’s been doing V twins longer than Harley and it took them at least 4 tries to get the oil pump right on the Milwaukee 8. Most manufacturers are no longer interested in building the best possible product or providing a customer with great value, it’s more about maximizing profitability...
