What did you do to, or on your streetglide today?
This weekend took a 690 mile ride with the Mrs to Arizona from the Inland Empire, Ca. The heat was brutal once we got into AZ. However, the ride back through Indio/Coachella/PalmDesert was even worse. Had to be over 110°. I’m still burnt...question tho to those with 21” front wheels, how’s your mpg? During the trip I only averaged roughly 180 miles per tank

I was bored so I went for what was supposed to only be a short 'get out of the house' ride. Ended up going through Sedona then back down Sr 89A to Prescott. It is a very twisty winding road going over the mountains and through Jerome. Total distance was just short of 300 miles.

My buddy and I took 89A on the way home to Colorado from Laughlin a couple of weeks ago. We went through Chino Valley, Prescott and then Jerome. Something like 182 corners in 12 miles? Ate lunch at Bobby D’s BBQ in Jerome. That place is awesome, had the Arizona Cheesesteak, and the staff are friendly.
Been on that road a couple of times and it sure is fun. I like the ride from Wickenberg up and back down to the 17 back to Phoenix. I know there is a couple other roads but can't remember the numbers.
Well, Old Blue is going under the knife today...
S&S 465cam, adj. pushrods, premium high performance tappets and a Power Vision tune.
Here's hoping for a swift recovery!

Where you get those emblems? I am looking for something similar.

Went for what should have been a medium length ride, but the 87 back to Phoenix was closed due to a fire. Detour through miami/globe added another 60 miles. About 320 miles total.
The entire state is on fire... Send rain.

Installed an HD Oil Cooler cover as the cooler was looking pretty shabby after 10K miles. It takes a lot of abuse right behind the wheel, and then took it out for a nice 2 lane 250 mile ride up north, very nice day!
I completed an Iron Butt Association ride over the weekend. Bun Burner 1,500 GOLD. 1530 miles in 23 hours 37 minutes. All with-in the state of California. Was such a blast I am already planning the next one.
I love the Jerome route, so unique! The Sedona to Flagstaff route is beautiful too!
When I went to pick up Ol' Blue from the shop I asked how it ran.
The owner/tech just grinned at me.
He builds a lot of high-powered bikes for guys but this was the first M8 he'd put a cam in.
He said it's amazing what these are capable of with a simple cam change.
After I drove it home I have to agree!
