Build. Tinker. Ride. Trials and Tribulations (and good times) of my motorcycle projects and other garage tinkering. Learning and building things. Building, wrenching on, and riding Harley Davidson Evolution Sportsters, Big Twins, and anything else with two wheels. Currently working on restoring and preserving a 1988 Harley Davidson Sportster chopper. I also post information on other DIY projects I tinker on.
The bagger – A 2014 Harley Davidson Street Glide
I replaced the stock radio on my 2014 Street Glide with a Sound Stream Reserve HDHU.14+ Plug and Play Head Unit. I have been looking at these for a bit, and I found it on sale at Garage Bagger Stereo. Ordered it…

Just a quick post… we had a fantastic time down in FL for Biketoberfest 2020. Rode down to St. Augustine and stayed the night, then on to Ormond Beach for the week. A week of motorcycles, tacos, ice cream, more motorcycles, chicken…
Over the weekend I did some maintenance on the Street Glide to get her ready for the ride down to Biketoberfest 2020 next month. With COVID-19 I think things are pretty much still up in the air on whether or not Biketoberfest…
Hope everyone had a great Labor Day Weekend. The weather here was fantastic, the whole weekend was near perfect. Sandy and I rode quite a bit this weekend, nothing fancy just around the back roads of southeastern VA and northeastern NC. I…
Just dressing up the Harley Davidson Street Glide fairing a little with a Custom Dynamics Gloss Black Fairing Vent Trim with Stainless Steel Mesh and a Ciro Black LED Lighted Horizon Windshield Trim.
