  1. Last week I got pants, boots and gloves from them. What great service. The gloves they said they had in stock, they didn't. So I choose another pair and she gave them to me for the same price. Saved me about $15.00. Great people. Great site.

    Average MPG

    Have never checked it. When you drive a heavy duty F-250 four wheel drive to work most days, even 25 MPG sound just great.
  3. Pete, did you look at the stock main jets against the jet kit? To me (I could be wrong or just looked that way) but the stock jets looked bigger to me.
  4. I just put the K&N kit ($35.00) this weekend in my 97. Man, the difference! I am sooo happy. It runs perfect. No flat spot or anything. Also put in new plugs and one tooth down front. Needles are 3rd down from top and piots out 2 &1/2. Now,I just don't know how to get a good 60 foot time at the track. The front end just wants to come up :!:
  5. Clean look. What kind of tire is that?
  6. CBRXX- I got that shift light and could not get it to program right with my 97. I sent it back and got a Dyna. Sooooo much better :!:
  7. Yea, they are on there tight. Grab ahold of the airbox and wiggle it and give it a good pull.
  8. Removing the plugs was easy. The hard part is getting the plug wires off. On 3 and 4, I had to loop a string under the 90 part of the plug wire and pull and wiggle to get off. A half hour job just to get the wires off. :cry:
  9. The shop manuel says to check to make sure that you can't get a .040 feeler gauge in (if so, replace). Sooooo, unless you were really ape like, I think you will be OK.
  10. With both of my bikes, every time I get home, as soon as I pull in, I clean it. Swamp, that is way your bugs don't come off. You have to get them when they are fresh.
  11. My Wing would do that at 40mph when the front tire was worn out. Put a new tire on and it went away. But I'm with Joe, the last thing I'm thinking about at the top of first gear is letting go of the bars. :shock:
  12. Yea, what Northman says. This proves without a doubt that the K&N is flowing more air. If it is lean to start with, the K&N will make it leaner. That is why sometimes the bike will dyno less with a K&N if you don't make the fuel system rich enough.
