Tuned it and did a check ride, much smoother...like it.
What did you do to your Road Glide Today?
I've seen these threads on other forums, and they can go on forever. Just some place to post what you might have done in any particular day.
I'll start with this past weekend. I went out Sunday morning intending to ride down the road, any road. When the first 40mph gust of wind hit me, I changed my mind and headed over to Iron Pony instead. It being early Sunday, and the service dept was open, I decided to get the new tires I was needing. So, a few dollars later I ended up with two new Dunlop American Elites and new pads on the front brakes. They were out of the Metzler ME880's, but these are new model Dunlops, and it appears they only make two sizes so far, both just happen to fit my bike. Web site says more sizes coming in 2011. Only have about 300 miles on them, but so far they seem to be good tires. Holds the wind well
(Sunday was VERY windy, almost got blown over getting off the bike)
Next up, Progressive 940's are on the way.

Installed new fang lights. Wasn’t absolutely positive I’d like the look, so went the inexpensive eBay route with TCMT whom I’ve had successful dealings in the past instead of Ciro. Very nice build quality and I like the lens styling better by comparison. Not quite as bright as Ciro3D, but they’re pretty nice overall and definitely attention getting in lower light setting like evenings and nights. Time and miles will tell about longevity and therefore value.
