Thanks to everyone who post little things like tire pressure and riding tips my first 100 miles has gone pretty good. Picked up the new RT Limited last night and was able to put 90 miles on it before I had to put it up and hit the sack.
On the ride home I thought I had made a big mistake. It was all over the road. I stopped and checked the air pressure and the dealer had set the left front at 14.5 psi and the right front at 15.5. Per all the talk on the forum I pumped them up to 18. The back was on 26 and I pumped it up to 30. After I got home I put another click on the front shocks and went out again and it is much better. The one thing I miss is the rumble of my old Hog.
Main thing is that the little lady is happy and loves it. After all the stories about heat I ordered the Spyderpops cat converter shield and will install it tonight. The bride did say her feet were getting a little warm. We are leaving at 5:00am in the morning to take a trip from Birmingham, AL to New Orleans. I guess I am really lucky that my wife loves to ride and she actually picked out the limited.:shemademe_smilie:
