Just catching up!

Well it's been awhile since I've posted so here's what's been happening! LOL, not much, we've been out on several short rides lately as we had to come up with $500+ dollars for new tires ft. and rear and the "labor" to have them installed, YIKES! We really like our Sporty Super Low but the tires SUCK as they are really sportbike tires and just don't last very long when you use the bike for mostly highway riding.

The real bummer is that NO tire mfg'er. except the OEM Michelin tires the MotorCompany had made with properly fit the the 883 Super Low model, arrugh!! This might be the "one" reason that we may be forced to go to a different Harley-Davidson machine or even a different brand of machine in the future!!! We will be doing a overnight run up to Estes Park, CO. on August 18th. it will be great to get up into the REAL mountains even if it's only for a couple of days! It's been so rainy this summer that we haven't done a lot of longer rides, well that and the having to come up with "hundreds" of dollars for TIRES that wear out wayyyy to fast, jmho!

We really do enjoy the way our local H-D dealership has event's going on all year and really like the way the dealership treats us, just with the Harley-Davidson Motor Corp. would be more inclined to listening to our request for a "longer" lasting "dual-compound" tread type distance tire for the Super Low model, but that has been a total waste of my time, basically they don't give a DAMN! I'm just supposed to "TRADE UP" and we just don't have the funds to do that! Maybe in 2 to 2.5 years when I get my Social Security, we MIGHT be able to afford a higher monthly payment for a more "touring" machine!  LOL, ok, I'll quit my rant, as stated, really looking forward to getting up in the Rockies next week! Have a most excellent day!
