Harley Riders gather

No leh. I think 883 enough for spore roads. 1200 a bit much. And I save in Road Tax. heh. Plus I feel that any sportster looks funny with saddle bags. I'm seriously tempted by the STX or if I were to get another Harley, a Roadking. But one big IF la. All depends how big my pocket can expand.

 

Of course if you are talking about Singapore roads, a 400cc cruiser is also good enough to cruise. It all bottle down individually and as long as you love your ride, that is more than said. :)

Ah Fai, u can try Michellin Powercommander. thick threading, dont wear off as fast as others.

 

I think the size availability is pretty limited.

 

Commander

Premium cruiser tyre

 

Developed for the cruiser rider who demands performance

Impressive handling and comfort

 

Cruiser riders understand good looks are just as important as high performance. With its easy-steering profile, ultra-comfortable highway ride and distinctive styling, the Michelin Commander combines a custom look with superb handling and precise steering. Yet it still delivers the long mileage that serious cruiser riders expect. It's a tyre for those who ride for the simple pleasure of riding.

Thanks kmax. Joing us tonight?

 

Lunloon, I saw cheap forward controls, but don't think they fit 2005 and above models. They stated something like 1993-2000 or something like that

 

yah, 04 and up usually and easily 200 and up

:(

 

anyway i wanna bring the forward controls to about just the front of the engine compartment instead of in the middle now.

 

those extension kit says 2" or 4", is it from the middle position (stock) ?
