  • Motorbike transport Faaker Lake

    Hello everybody, my husband and I have planned to go to Faaker Lake for the first time this year, but we would like to take our bikes with us in a transporter – you never know how the weather will be like, they have not seen any rain yet and that should stay that way 🙂 Can anyone give us a tip where to rent a transporter best? (no hangers, since no hooker coupling) We are still quite “fresh” Harley fans and drivers, so to speak one year 🙂 and would be very happy about any help!

  • Dyna Wide Glide still buy or wait?

    Hello Harley driver and those who want to become it. I drove Harley for the first time on Friday (Fat Boy,Vroad and a Wide Glide) I actually didn’t feel comfortable on the Fat Boy and the Vroad was also not my thing. I had the right feeling on the Wide Glide. Also the look (sometimes apart from the small rear wheel) did it to me. e.g. the tank is somewhat stretched and also the fork is not as thin as with the Softail custom. The footrests are a bit further ahead. And now I have read today that there is no longer the wide Glide in 2008. You can also not order it in the desired color (said me the friendly Harley dealer at the corner) Since the production has already expired. Now my question. Still quick buy or wait??? Many times a color compromise?? Could she still get in Pewter Pearl (so a kind of silver) wanted it actually in Black Pearl. And how is it if you want to sell it later? Have heard less of the Dyna parts?

  • Dyna versus Softtail

    Hi, last week I made my dream come true and ordered me a Dyna Super Glide Custom MJ 2007. Delivery is only 03/07. I know many forum participants can’t see such posts any more, but certainly someone reads it anyway: The decision for a Dyna fell after a test drive with a Streetbob and a Softtail Custom. I just had the impression that the Dyna is a little more handy in the curves. The question is now, does the (conspicuously) better handling of the “normal” seat position of the Streetbob come? The softtail with the pre-set rests was IMHO a little more difficult in the curves. Or does the 200 slats play the decisive role here? Since I have to lay down the rests at the Dyna and at some point also to put on a 180 tire I ask myself, then she drives like a softtail? If yes, should I then switch to a softtail? The dealer would certainly be pleased 😉 You already, questions about questions but I only started in May with a bike on a totally Vespa Thanks and a total swim.

  • Allegedly new regulation

    Hello, just in advance, the search function did not lead me to the desired result ;-). My question is addressed to all “knowledgers” in relation to the alleged re-regulation regarding the decommissioning or confiscation due to exhaust without TÜV in case of a control. I spent half a day in different forums etc., but found nothing out of conjecture and other half-truths taken over, which made me realize what has now changed exactly. Here’s a link to a movie where one got 25 EUR due to manipulated bag. What is Nu Phase? Does someone have something official? nnhttp://www.zdf.de/…/0,4070,5263135-6-wm_dsl,00.html

  • ….and again a purchase advice to a 1200 xl Sporty . . . .

    ……I have been reading this forum here for some time, and it has already brought me in my way to a decision. Yesterday I was at the friendly one, and I drove a Sporty xl 1200 Custom to the rehearsal (all-round with 1500,- €uronen SB ). It is an EZ 05/2002, with 16,000 km, and ( unfortunately ) 4th hand. It has a great sound, through a nice exhaust system, comes well in driving, the general condition is so 2 with the age-appropriate damages, such as small stone strokes in the paint. . . . and so the decision has almost been made with me, i.e. reserved is already . . . . . . . Is there possibly something else I should pay special attention to here? and is the price of scarce 8 T€uronen inclusive of the 16000 he inspection appropriate? Then I add a pic of the good ones at . . . . . . . . . . . … and look forward to your good advice! Thank you!

  • Question about gear oil change at Softail TC 2003

    Hello people! Would you like to change the gear oil at my Softail Springer (2003). Can you really only get to the exhaust screw with an imbus, or can you also use a suitable long nut? Thanks for all the information

  • Do you know this or a comparable handlebar?

    Moin community, I came across hanging pictures and spontaneously got into the handlebars. Is not very likely, but does one of you have an idea which model this could be or does someone have an alternative that comes very close to this handlebar? Have thanks & nice greetings, Fuji

  • Tyre width Softail 2001

    Hi to everyone! I felt through the stored threads but did not find anything suitable for me. What is the maximum tyre width for my FXSTS 2001 if I do not want to change the swingarm b. the belt as much as possible c. would like to leave the brake caliper d. the tire should run as centrally as possible ? You can think about changing the rear fender and the fender mount. New spoke rim would not be a topic. My idea, front 21er cutting wheel, rear fat flap … e in 200s would be already what I prefer. I’m in the south of the republic and thus vieeeel time to pimp ‘s möpi! Thank you and until then
