  • Speed limit 80 km/h on rural roads

    Hello, in front of the cross in the next election, briefly recall:Experts are calling for a speed of 80 km per hour on highways Transport policymakers from the left and the greens are striving to achieve a speed limit of 80 km per hour in the face of an increasing number of accident deaths on highways. Transport Minister Alexander Dobrindt (CSU) has so far rejected this. “We are committed to a general speed limit of 80 km per hour on highways,” said leftist expert Sabine Leidig of the newspaper “Die We This is better than “to cut allee trees or to plant far away from the roads in order to prevent so-called tree accidents”. The risk of accidents on rural roads is high The proposal to introduce speed 80 on rural roads is not new. However, according to the Green transport politician Stephan Kühn, it is once again “serious to consider limiting the maximum speed to 80 kilometers per hour”. According to provisional data from the Federal Statistical Office, Germany is expected to be around 3450 in 2015. “Germany has slipped from fourth to eighth place in terms of the number of people killed in traffic from 100,000 inhabitants per year,” said Kühn. He accused Dobrindt of not doing the necessary thing about it.Source: http://www.t-online.de/…en-request-tempo-80-on-roads.html Greeting Brus

  • Which motorcycle trailer do you buy?

    Hello this year I would like to take the roadking with the camper .. for this I now look for a suitable trailer. I have unfortunately no experience and ask once in the round how you do that. Tips ? Suggestions ? My idea : 1. actually I like such a light trailer, which you can store after use on the garage wall high edge, but there it scares me before loading .. with such a narrow ramp..therefore it should be a trailer with a ramp (board wall) a… or can be lowered, so that I do not have to push the 350 Kg over a windy ramp. 2. I will often also drive alone, the trailer should therefore also be to act alone. whereby I do not want to do without brakes and supports.. separates the double axle or? 3. I would like to have a box.. but that should then be at least 150 wide and 180 high.. will probably be too heavy … enough to take a trailer with base plate, so that the bike does not completely suck is going ? Oh yes .. I know .. Real guys driving on axle … always horny on the way .. but I’ve already had to start the way back in rain too often .. I never need … you get older 🙂 LG Klaus

  • Update: Harley screwdriver in Berlin???

    Hey Leut`s, what experiences are there with Harley screwdrivers in Berlin and the surrounding area, would need some up-to-date information. If you can, even those where you don’t have to borrow before….. Thank you very much in advance! Greetz BV2B

  • Fallen on the mouth right at the beginning

    Hello dear Harley community. I’m new to you because I only fulfilled my old dream of Harley this year. Based on my first experiences, I want to ask you for advice. Dangers are I only once with the iron: in February to the nearest Harley screwdriver. I wanted to put the good piece there for a thorough inspection. (You don’t know if you might have bought a cat in a bag, will you?). Now May, the super weekends v orbei and I still haven’t got my Harley back. The guy apologizes with flimsy excuses, did one or the other on the moped, but doesn’t get into the pötte. I’m pissed off of course. I sent him a letter from my lawyer with a deadline until today 17.5. I don’t have a motorcycle, no order confirmation, no invoice. But the repair is supposed to cost over 4000 € now! I’m flat. Is Harley so expensive? And now my Fra If so, which one? Or does anyone know the company Iron Horse, Parts and Service for HD in Welver-Dinker. Please contact us, because together we may be stronger. It greets a frustrated HD-Novize Daytona92

  • EU HARLEY allow in Germany / COC – data sheet

    Hello, I bought a Harley Fat Boy 2003 from Latvia. In addition, there is only one EU approval – paper (in my case (LT paper) green with some information. I have a purchase contract. Otherwise nothing. I also read a lot different here in the forum and have now got my own opinion. First I was with a screwdriver that makes Costom – conversions. He told me that he has done this before and said I need a COC paper. Hmm… that I have to see where I have the ( In short: The COC paper is only available from the Harley Dealer, for example, near you. The prices are moving… as you read here in the forum very differently. Between 150 and well over 1500 Eur there is the talk. After my screwdriver didn’t get in the pushes…. I released him from all duties and took care of an approval here in DE from now on. First I called the TÜV. He told me I needed a data sheet where everything was written on it. ch … the COC paper ? Hm that’s it… Ok I thought … I called Harley in Möhrfelden… the nice ladies on the phone told me that the COC is only sold through the dealers … She unfortunately can’t help me anymore.. but it costs around the 350 EUR. Ok I thought I was browsing the www Bin then with the help of another forum member on the TÜV Süd (data sheet until 1999) from 1999 to 2004 the Tüv Nord is responsible (later models are obviously not yet available) The price of the Tüv Süd per data sheet should then cost around the 300 – 400 EUR. I have a 2003er there is the TÜV Nord specialized. The costs here 350 EUR zuzügl 66,50 EUR MWST ( 416,00 zuzügl COD). If I now hold the data sheet in my hand and then go with my Harley to the TÜV… the acceptance and approval (provided that I hold the data sheet in my hand and then go with my Harley to the TÜV… should the acceptance and the approval (provided that I hold the data sheet in my hand… you have the original exhaust – which is installed for the respective type, a Km tacho and a couple of other modifications then hopefully no longer a problem. The Tüv acceptance according to § 21 is then perhaps also again at 150 to 250 EUR. That then depends on… what still has to be registered. I write next week or beginning of March… as it happened to me then at TÜV and whether everything worked out. Lg Markus

  • Does insurance cover expire when driving without BE?

    Hello to all legal experts, I have been busy for a few days with the legal situation in connection with the installation of an exhaust without ABE. The consequences if you are stopped have already been sufficiently discussed. But what if you accept these risks and nevertheless install an exhaust system without ABE and thus an accident happens. The modified exhaust is certainly not a safety threatening part of the vehicle and therefore the question is whether someone knows whether the insurance Does insurance cover fail (in case of culpable driving behaviour or in case of an accident without fault)? Does anyone have any experience? Greetings HarleyDay

    Hello, I have a huge problem. After I got a Dynojet Powervision (PV-1) on my Heritage Classic (FLSTCI year 2004) KessTech MMV rear silencer and now I also have a Screaming Eagle air filter on it. After I read in and also looked at the related videos of Dynojet I wanted to read out the original software status of the ECU. That worked so far. For the test I wanted exactly this Softw It is even worse, however, that the machine no longer starts and has now been on the test bench for more than 3 weeks. They have probably read out the control unit and sent the file to Dynojet. There it was allegedly manually corrected and sent back again. However, without success. The corrected version cannot be played either. The mechanic no longer gets an answer from Dynojet. Does anyone have an idea how to get my beloved machine back on track? Thank you very much, Steffen

  • Resetting the Magneti Marelli injection?

    Hello together Ride a 98er Flahtci where the air filter housing was removed from the predecessor. I also bought it with open but unsightly dampers. Now after some try I bought the open 450 oversize of Vance & Hines. Optical and sound technical Top!!! After a longer tour on this weekend (about 500 km) however a few problems showed up. I drive the machine practically always at approx. 2000 revolutions. When I now pass these now higher g She started to jerk and spit. She caught herself again over about 3500 turns. Also she shoots relatively often and firmly at valley descents. The colleague behind me tells of black Russian clouds that come out of the right pot. Well, on the way there I found this rather unproblematic, but on the way home suddenly also the red engine control light shined up again and again. Also, I can almost not start the machine again, if we had a break. All this makes me think something. I actually only changed the dampers. Of course they have a larger volume than those on them, but can this be the reason? Did I still order Bafflers, because I find the dampers so much too loud. Can it be that it is going better with them again? Or is there in the end even a possibility to adjust the injection to these dampers and open air filters? Here, unfortunately, you only read that this is always possible. e Magneti Marelli doesn’t have the best reputation. If someone here has a tip for it, this would certainly help me further. Thank you already for this!!

  • Hakenschl + tool, all laid ready, for the “KATZ”

    SOFTI, you want to change spring pretension, softer to 75 kg. If you would have gotten a little higher + softer at all, turning clockwise on stop, or are these just nuances on the part of the optics and the hardness? To the point: In the “toll” operating instructions this is quite flowery, great, simply explained and beautifully illustrated. On the bike you have no chance, but none at all. You would need a stage, a ramp, or 3 men, 2 tilts and one screws, or you tint with the friendly. Now go I prefer to ride a bike
