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 :D (Sunday was VERY windy, almost got blown over getting off the bike)

Next up, Progressive 940's are on the way.

First test ride around the block checking brakes, suspension and engine today since all the additions. That counts as a first ride of 2023, right?

Haven't seen that paint in person but I bet it has a different killer look in all lighting conditions. Full sun bringing to view all the details. Good thing for my wallet I didn't see one at dealer :) That is a beautiful bike!

“Kermit”. Perfect.
Absolutely! My hillbilly roots were about to show, as I've known 2 or 3 local guys named Kermit. Not exactly a common name for a kid....or great bike!

Man the green with the cvo red looks sweet, especially in the bright sun! 🌞

That’s what I thought! Had to tie the red into the bike with subtle touches like the brake caliper screens.

Traveling 2 - 3 weeks a month for work is good and bad at times.

When I am not on the road, I am stuck behind my laptop most of the time. Today, I just couldn't take
it anymore! Sunny skies temperature was about 67-70 degrees. I decided to take an extended lunch break
and take a 2-hour ride to stretch the legs out in the county. Perfect riding conditions for the bike and myself.

Only had on a flannel shirt (No, not a Dixxon lol) and t-shirt underneath, gloves and FF helmet. I was a little warm, could have gotten away with just a s/s tee or l/s tee. Not bad for February 15th.

Man, it's amazing what a little bit of "Wind Therapy" does for the soul!
