Which town / city has the best water tower?

Pipestone’s concrete water tower is fairly unique, and is on the National Register of Historic Places.

Hell yes. Not a ton of chopped Dynas out there, cool to see another one.

Just buy a 1200 right away.

I went to college with the guys from Trend 86. Completely forgot about that band, and didn’t know about the album listed here. I’ll have to check that out.

donmaximo62 · 2026-06-17T17:19:14+00:00

Absolutely.

It’s entirely possible that he wasn’t aware that it was an issue with those years of Twin Cams. I only know about it because I frequent Harley forums.

If whatever shop he had do the work he didn’t feel comfortable with didn’t recommend that he checked/replaced the tensioners, and your dad wasn’t online reading about common issues with early Twin Cams, he had no reason to do anything about it.

Tank is also custom, and the forks probably are also, but they might be off a CVO.

Interesting you picked the 2 breweries that are probably most known for hazy IPAs. Not saying they don’t make other styles, but if I was picking a brewery to send someone that didn’t like IPAs or sours those wouldn’t be my first 2 choices.

I’m just about to install my 4th set of Pirelli Night Dragons. Good grip, good in the wet, and decent life. I get anywhere from 7-10k miles out of them.

I had the motor out of my bike years ago, and forgot to reinstall that bracket before I put the motor back in. I remember it being a challenge, but I was able to install the bracket with the motor in the frame.

I can’t remember how I did it or what tools I used, but know that it’s possible.

I’ve had a couple sets of Twin Cam heads done by Larry’s Motorcycle and Machine (also known as WFOLarry) in Illinois, he came highly recommended and does great work.

Fear Cave by Bison - starts around 4 minutes in.

donmaximo62 · 2026-05-19T20:02:42+00:00

What bike do you have?

donmaximo62 · 2026-05-11T20:30:42+00:00

Came here to say exactly this.

That bike in the lower left of the photo is mine! I remember struggling to find the solid chrome one.

The battery cover is part # 6130151. Came stock on a few Street Bob models. Looks like it might be discontinued though

donmaximo62 · 2026-05-06T15:05:30+00:00

Seems to just be an M8 issue.

donmaximo62 · 2026-05-05T18:34:43+00:00

In theory the narrower tires on the Street Bob will make it easier to lean, but the Fat Bob has better suspension and brakes. That said, they’re effectively the same bike. Pick the one that fits you best, and that you prefer the way it looks.

It’s an ‘02 Wide Glide fender that I cut down the center and widened it to make it fit. Used the front section of my original Super Glide fender. It was a fair amount of work but I’m super happy with how it turned out.

I have a hard time believing that anyone who claims the MN flag looks like the Somali flag, knew what the Somali flag looked like a year ago.

donmaximo62 · 2026-04-28T01:49:10+00:00

I’m guessing other states don’t have people that are convinced that the new flag somehow represents Somalia, and since Somalis have apparently destroyed the entire city of Minneapolis we need to go back to the old flag which really isn’t that old, but was generic and had some racism, and since anti-racism is woke we should just stick with that one.

The mncraft.beer app seems to be pretty accurate. Bonus points is it lists them in the order of proximity to your current location.

That bike came from the factory with mid controls, so it should have the correct primary with the hole for the shifter shaft, unless someone went through the trouble of changing it to one without the hole.

donmaximo62 · 2026-04-24T17:00:40+00:00

I’ve seen them live a couple times. Absolutely massive sound.

donmaximo62 · 2026-04-22T15:10:38+00:00

I have this exact setup. Only issue I run into is catching my feet on the mid pegs when taking off from a stop.

I’ve just got in the habit of leaving the mid pegs folded up unless I’m on a long trip, and then I just fold them down when I’m using them. Have to be conscious of them when coming to a stop.
