 This site was recommended to me by a friend who has own nothing but Honda's since they came
out. So here I'm,

 I pick up a 1999 tourer in March that has been sitting for 5 years, The price was very good and I
really bought it to flip it. But once I got it running and took  it for a quick ride, I was very impressed with
it. Talking about grabbing the throttle, wow.  Got it back  to the house and went completely over it.
Change all fluids,tires,brakes,oil,  and etc . Speaking of changing the tires, my friend recommended
going to the dark side. About that time i didn't know what he was talking about, I just took his advice..

  But now, I think I'll just keep it. Even considering selling the Harley

Did you remove the rear wheel and lube the final drive cogs?

 When I replace the rear tire, with a car tire I grease it, been watching the site for a while before
I joined. So listening and learning, thanks to you all that led the way  for us. Want to install a hitch  and put a set of truck stacks on. Do plan on going to inzane and looking for a camp ground around there.

 Any suggestions? Now I have pulled a camper trailer before but, not sure with the tourer , did pull
one with a wing. Moved up to a aspen trailer from a kwik kamp, still  have the kk, Thinking of selling the aspen,
its a nice tailer, just like the kk better.
