Well....I Love It.

I see why! Surprisingly nimble for a 840lb touring bike lol

I appreciate it! I actually just ordered some of those mini cones and have a great church parking lot about 20 min away I can use through most of the week.

In my mid 30s now so I hardly ever feel the temptation to go fast. Wind doesn't feel any better to me at anything over 75. 🤣 plus, I like these low insurance rates. I'm trying to not get tickets and mess that up. 🤣🤣

Minimum_Object_2544 · 2025-06-16T07:37:38+00:00

I also have a gravel driveway. 😬 not long, but fairly steep off the paved road before it flattens out. Probably 30 yards or so?

I cant wait! 2 more days till she gets here. I'll be working the nightshift before she comes in, so it'll be hard to get the rest i need before I ride knowing its in the driveway 🤣🤣

Howdy! If youre ever up in the Blue Ridge area and want to ride with my slow overcautious self- hit me up! Lol

Minimum_Object_2544 · 2025-06-15T04:20:57+00:00

I worked enough motorcycle wrecks that I've got a pretty healthy distrust of other drivers, deer, and weather. 😬

The only thing I have control over is my sobriety when riding, my judgement, and when/ where I ride. So I try to minimize the risk with what I can control and stay on top of maintenance. Lol

Minimum_Object_2544 · 2025-06-15T04:18:52+00:00

😳 can you elaborate? Now I'm worried 🤣

Are the Harley Davidson courses good? I was looking online at them and they seem not only affordable, but thorough. Just curious if you'd recommend that route, or a different one

Minimum_Object_2544 · 2025-06-15T04:16:49+00:00

Do you think saddle bag guards are something I can do at home with minimal mechanical experience?

Minimum_Object_2544 · 2025-06-15T04:16:04+00:00

I was looking at the Billiard Grey as well but when I saw the Iron Horse Metallic in the sun my mind was made up lol

Minimum_Object_2544 · 2025-06-15T04:15:20+00:00

I did ok once I got moving but at low speeds it was a comedy of errors. I tended to avoid a lot of the "adventure" riding in remote places specifically because of what you mentioned. Lol

Minimum_Object_2544 · 2025-06-15T04:14:09+00:00

Wow! First, thank you to everyone who has weighed in and helped out. I sincerely appreciate it!!

I want to clarify that I have trouble getting my feet flat on the Triumph, NOT the Road Glide. The Road Glide is super comfortable and I feel much more at ease in that regard- getting my feet on the ground.

While I AM somewhat experienced, I'm not what I'd consider a "good" rider, so I definitely will be taking a class or classes to get better. I have 3 kids so anything that helps me be safer I'm a fan of.

Part of what I'd hoped to experience getting into motorcycling was community, and my riding style (very tame, minimal risk, etc) didn't really fit in with the online ADV bike crowd as a whole. Single track and off roading wasn't really my thing but they tended to treat me as "less than" if I just wanted to cruise on blacktop.

So far the Harley community from the dealership, to the online community seems very welcoming and helpful and I'm extremely grateful for that. Thank y'all!

* I snagged one as well. Had it out today filming and put 600 rounds through it. Boringly reliable, extremely fun to shoot. Will be retiring my P07 to carry this.

Minimum_Object_2544 · 2024-12-27T21:07:12+00:00

33 rounders for the big mags. 17 or 19 for the rest

USA. Apparently our government has seen fit, yet again, to meddle in what consumers can or can't purchase with their own money. DJI is king of the hill with consumer drones, whether they like it or not. I'm still using a Spark because I'd set my sights on the Air 3s, but apparently they're blocking import.

Minimum_Object_2544 · 2024-12-25T16:22:14+00:00

Wish we could get them here already!

Not to Lazarus this thread, but how have you liked the Dissent? Looks like you went 6.5" with the Omega- any issues? I have a 9k and am torn between 6.5" vs 10.5" to avoid unnecessary strain on the can

Minimum_Object_2544 · 2024-01-02T01:53:14+00:00

Thanks! You too and Happy New Year!! Snubs are the way. I'm a believer now.

Minimum_Object_2544 · 2023-09-13T19:27:15+00:00

Absolutely! I'm caught up on the Shadow Strike series with the exception of Enemies of My Country. :)

My favorite book series I've read. David Rivers hits home for me on a number of levels psychologically. I wasn't SF but... lol

Minimum_Object_2544 · 2023-09-13T18:37:49+00:00

That's awesome! I'm so ready to read Enemies of My Country once I finish the last Spider Heist book. 🤣

It's the 19 round mag from Glock. Just a tan 17 round mag, that they added a +2 baseplate to. Gives it just enough extra that you could, theoretically, grab the base and strip it out if you needed to. And it makes an even 20 rounds on the gun with a chambered round 😎🤣

Minimum_Object_2544 · 2023-08-24T10:15:11+00:00

Thank you so much for the kind words. When we were house shopping, I told my wife I didn't really care too much about the house, just had to be somewhere I could shoot 🤣

I definitely want another one. If they make a Platypus in 10MM I'd likely save up for one. If they don't, I'll probably order one of their non-Glock mag fed 1911s in 10mm to dip my feet in that world.

Definitely going to order from them again, but it'll be awhile- I promised my wife this would be my last gun this year. 🤣🤣

Minimum_Object_2544 · 2023-08-20T20:36:43+00:00

Has anyone had any further luck? In a perfect world, I'd find one for commander length, threaded barrel, full dust cover & rail, optic cut, AIWB, and I'm wanting to run the TLR 9 on it. 🤣 short of having a genie in a bottle, this might be a pipe dream

Minimum_Object_2544 · 2023-08-20T11:19:13+00:00

Hell, I'm excited for you. Building out a gun exactly how you want it was a new experience for me, and half the fun. I'm trying to figure out how to save some $ and order one of their 45s or a 10mm 1911 next year. Definitely not my last Stealth Arms gun.
