UPDATED 4/26/ 2018 -HARLEY DAVIDSON 2007 - 2014 COMPENSATOR SPROCKET PROBLEMS

I have a 2014 Street Glide that I bought used in 2015. It had 10K miles on it when I bought it, comp had to be replaced at 12K.

Glad it was under warranty.
 
Already have the pipes and air cleaner.....

Dobeck TFI
Big Sucker
Thunderhead 2 into 1 with aftermarket heat shields

Remember it gets 110-118 here in summer :D

About 8 years ago we made the mistake of riding into Palm Springs CA in late June while on a 2 week MC trip. This was our last leg of the journey after riding north from San Diego on the PCH to San Fran. but came back through the eastern side route. When we awoke the next morning I just could not believe wealthy people actually purposely move there! One of the hottest places I've ever experienced! Not only hot, but the Santa Anna winds nearly knocked us over when riding on the Hwy. by all the wind mills!

I live in the NE and unless we are heading out on a trip I usually won't ride when it's over 90ºF - just too damned hot for me. On the other hand I LOVE riding in the cool weather. :)

I am also from New England. After joining the USAF as a pup, I never looked back. Grandfather was from Tucson so I spent summers out here and in VA as a kid.

Stationed in NM, FL, and TX..... fell in love with hot weather.

Hate snow, hate cold. LOVE heat. When everyone out here is at the lake and rivers, I am in the desert shooting in 110 degree heat. Why? Its like my own private range with nobody to bother me! :D

If it were Fall every day I'd be very happy! I can take Winters just fine but as far as Spring and Summer go - not for me! I hate the Pollen, green stuff all over, and although our home has a pool and central a/c, I'm no fan of the heat! LOVE riding in the Fall!!
