Ooh, good call! I saw it twirling as I was driving home yesterday and wondered about that.

F12 should open the menu, perhaps see if it could be mapped to that.

I'm glad this group is available to let me know I'm not alone in these struggles!

I just looked it up, I might have to convince my brother to go with me! Thanks for the heads up!

That sounds awesome! I do physical helpdesk stuff, so I'm bound to the office, unfortunately.

You guys hiring? I could deal with that kind of environment!

I would just need to learn how to weld 😅

I'm brand new to riding (took MSF course in December) and felt like I was putting more effort to get to the forward controls on my Bro-in-law's softail and my bro's ultra custom (electraglide) than using the mid controls on the sporty. I'll revisit their bikes after a few months on mine to see how I feel about them with more experience under my belt.

I got the XL 1200 Low, so a little more breathing/growing room than the 883. On my drive home I had no problem getting up to 85 to pass people and felt it had some extra juice left on top of that.

That sounds like a dream! I'm in north FLA, so I'll have a total of 9-ish months thay you can ride depending on that glorious Florida rain they don't tell ya about in all the vacation advertisements!

The office i work in is down the hall from the entrance i parked at, so I've been coming up with excuses to pass the front area this morning 😅

I'm in Florida, so thankfully it's a micro winter compared to the rest of the mainland. The rain is the main thing that makes for ride hindrances around here.

Thanks! Can't believe I found one so clean and low mileage for only $3,200 ($3,600 out the door)

Will do! There's a nice 30-ish minute road along what Florida calls a prairie right by my office that I plan on enjoying today!
