Hi, not sure if anyone else has had this issue before, but I tried converting my flight recorder files for use in the Vtune software and for whatever reason when I do all seven of the files it seems to time out in a way. It gets about half way done converting and it pushes me back to the datamaster starting page like it was never doing it in the first place. There are two files that are fairly large in the interface. Can I convert them individually and they’ll disappear from the interface or do I have to do them all at once?
Thinking about installing car tires on my ‘19 Fatboy FLFBS since I do a lot of highway riding. What has been y’all’s experience on the darkside? How do I know what size to buy? (Can’t find 240/40R18 or 160/60R18 on car tires)
Traded in my 07 Softail Deluxe for an 11 Ultra Classic. Had it for a week now and am loving it
I am looking for feedback from anyone that has upgraded from the stage 2 fairing speakers to the new stage 3 speakers. I’m trying to determine how much of an improvement the 3’s are over the 2’s. So, if the factory speakers are a zero on a scale of 1 to 10 of awesomeness, and the stage 3 speakers are a 10, where do the stage 2’s fit in? How much of an improvement are they over the twos?
The cost is not an issue, and I realize that there are better options if I go aftermarket, but I wanna stay with the Harley branded components.
Does anyone have a link or a PN for this gasket?
Restoring this bike and finalizing the last steps. This gasket started weeping after bleeding the brakes with new fluid. Can’t locate it online anywhere. I believe it’s the stock master with SS lines and PM calipers.
I have an excessively loud whine when my bike is at idle. It’s so loud you almost can’t hear my exhaust. Any ideas what’s causing this? For certain it became louder when I switched to a high flow filter. Does this sound normal?
It hit 60° F today.
Still got to name her.
Last trip on trike going to Lawton it ran great. When coming home it started pulling to the left. Started it yesterday left fender was vibrating like crazy. Right fender had no vibration. What could be problem? Going to drive it to dealership this week. Think that would be safe? It’s 2020 HD deluxe tri glide 14,846 miles.
Anyone know if there are any custom colors for these fairings? I'd love an amber color and cannot find one anywhere.
Recently bought a 16 LRS. Noticed it had a Fp3 installed so I hooked it up to my phone and took a peek at the tune it had. I adjusted the decel pop and flashed the tune. Now the bike won't start. Tried the stock tune, tried putting the decel pop back, removed the tuner, everything I could try it will not start and now it's throwing all these codes and they won't clear. Any ideas?
Picked my Fatboy from Oceanside Harley back in 1991. Great upgrade from my 883 Sportster 😎
First day of warm-ish weather out here in TX meant it insta-dried by the time I pulled into a parking lot. FML
I ride motorcycles for the thrill and adrenaline rush. Same reason I do everything that is considered dangerous or high risk... but this was not the heart racing experience I wanted. Out for a ride and a dude in a Toyota Tacoma makes an illegal u-turn. Had i been 6 inches to the left. Or 2 MPH slower, or looking at anything other than the road, I'd be done for. This is from his FRONT FUCKING BUMPER. This is why I ride like an asshole. Because everyone around me is actively trying to kill you when you're on a bike... and as i pulled over to collect myself, he drove by with a "sorry dude, didnt see you." I immediately called to tell my wife and kid how much I love them. The fact that we only traded paint makes me think that he didn't even realize that he DID hit me. Stay safe out there. Everyone is a cunt.
And the weather is beautiful!

Hey guys, so I'm kicking around the idea of doing a 1200 kit on my 99 sporty. Been doing a bunch of reading and I'm starting to get lost in the sauce especially with slapping buell heads and dome top piston heads. With the buell heads, I'm seeing too much information to disseminate to figure out which heads to grab. For the piston heads, I'm not sure if there's caveats I need to consider for this build. Any help on how to start my first major project would be appreciated.
I’m looking to purchase some type of wireless speaker system for my softail, but there’s a lot of options and I’m not sure where to start. I was going to go for a soundbar, but not sure what would be better sound quality. Any recommendations?
Having recently purchased my first Harley-Davidson 2019 Heritage with the 114 engine, I am seeking recommendations for the most suitable exhaust system that would enhance the bike’s performance. But with the best sound!!! I don’t want to bust my ear drums but I want that Harley sound.
I am looking to upgrade my 2017 Iron 883 to Street bob. Is it worth saving more and paying extra (~$4500 in my country) to get the 107ci Street Bob over the 103ci Street Bob?
Hello brothers I was hoping y’all wouldn’t mind giving me some tips, advice and personal experience on a long trip. I live in Texas and planning on going up to HD Daytona Bike Week. It about 17 hours away. Ive been riding for about 4 months now and feel very comfortable on my bike just don’t wanna be too overconfident and possibly ruin a fun ride and time.
