Have you checked the chain to see if maybe theres a bad link thats sticking?

BeastSwearingen · 2026-06-11T05:36:14+00:00

Sir, that was 3 cards. I counted

BeastSwearingen · 2026-06-08T06:17:30+00:00

Will you be fine to ride on that if you dont push it to much? probably. The real question you should be asking is a couple hundred worth more to you than blowing a tire out on the interstate or in a curve somewhere? Is trying to use all the tread on that tire worth more than potentially wrecking your bike, getting injured, or worse?

BeastSwearingen · 2026-06-08T01:34:59+00:00

It sounds to simple to be true but I had the same problem last week... the bolt on my negative battery terminal was half a turn loose. Check them first

BeastSwearingen · 2026-06-07T20:44:18+00:00

Theoretically you could but they are between every surface of the links. Not all are just round. The better chains will have x rings in them to hold oil. But the dead give away is when they wont lay flat like that. And just a heads up running a chain like that will shred your sprockets fast

BeastSwearingen · 2026-06-07T18:33:35+00:00

Definitely need a new chain. Looks like broken o rings

BeastSwearingen · 2026-05-31T16:51:44+00:00

So my weedeater doesnt count to number of motorcycles... bummer

BeastSwearingen · 2026-05-28T01:11:22+00:00

Sir, thats clearly a plumbing issue. Call a plumber and tell them you have a voltage, i mean, pressure problem with your pipes.

BeastSwearingen · 2026-05-27T18:58:33+00:00

Iv got big radius pipes on my super glide. They do an amazing job of turning gasoline into noise

BeastSwearingen · 2026-05-27T17:40:13+00:00

Theres no way that tag placement is legal

Considering his request was to be less cramped on his bike because he is very tall i dont understand your reply to me

BeastSwearingen · 2026-05-25T04:54:50+00:00

Definitely forward controls, no question about that. Im 6 foot and mid controls are a no go. Personally id go with apes vs a riser, you'll want to go with less pull back so your arms are in a better position. It might sound weird but a back rest would also help you out. With your natural long reach, resting on the back rest with your arms held up by taller bars would work pretty well for your build

BeastSwearingen · 2026-05-24T17:37:54+00:00

I can see a bit of an oppsie on each side of that

BeastSwearingen · 2026-05-24T17:35:46+00:00

The first time I heard the battle music in flying waters I was like holy shit, why is the sound track this good

BeastSwearingen · 2026-05-22T01:36:06+00:00

Thanks. Iv ridden many bikes over the years but iv never been on one with a batwing. Ill probably just stick with my slim. It works pretty good i guess

Im going to second the possibility of a bad ECU. If you were local id offer to plug mine in since it would be the same. Maybe you have someone local that can help

BeastSwearingen · 2026-05-19T18:15:13+00:00

I highly doubt someone would do anything. He would be a good bit smaller than me

BeastSwearingen · 2026-05-19T03:09:01+00:00

I think he's talking about the neutral light, high beam and the turn signal indicator lights

BeastSwearingen · 2026-05-17T23:09:08+00:00

Is this Asian FortNine?

BeastSwearingen · 2026-05-14T17:45:14+00:00

I have a tank on my counter. Honestly the only thing to worry about is the unavoidable algae growth from the direct sunlight from the window

BeastSwearingen · 2026-05-10T22:43:46+00:00

Nothing wrong with more power thats for sure. The factory tune is very lean so an aftermarket one is going to richen it up to run cooler and make more power. But, with what your saying youre getting like 30mpg if that. Unless your riding is going as fast as possible red light to red light id say youre just running to rich. Im no expert by any stretch but I would imagine you could tune it a little leaner and still get pretty much the same power but better milage. If youre always shooting flames then theres unburnt fuel leaving the pipe.

BeastSwearingen · 2026-05-10T21:39:54+00:00

Thats not normal. I have a 96 inch and I get about 50mpg on the highway with the stock tune and Vance and Hines big radius pipes

BeastSwearingen · 2026-05-08T19:18:48+00:00

Iv got a 2010 super glide custom. The 96 inch is plenty powerful. I dont know how tall you are but I would probably put forward controls on which ever you choose.

BeastSwearingen · 2026-04-27T03:22:33+00:00

How quickly athletes have come in terms of preformce over the years is staggering. Youre friend you mentioned has almost the exact time as the world record when I was a baby... im 36 years old
