    ABS brakes
    I noticed the wrning light for the ABS brakes is lit on the inst. panel.  Also the rear brake will not kick the cruise control off.  The bike is a 2008 CVO Ultra Classic. Maybe someone has had some experience with this.  Thanks

There are no fluid leaks only air getting in to the system.

They have been getting more and more creative and they are just plain riotious sometimes. Some years, depending on who was playing, I actually looked forward to the commercials more. Breaks up the monotony, know what I mean?  But here's my beef, in the last couple of years or so, they have started pre-releasing the new commercials, to hype the product or the game, or just to peak some interest, I don't know. But I HATE THAT! I like to see them, fresh, during the game. I like to see them thru "virgin" eyes, if you will. Nothing ruins something for me more, than a daggone "preview". It's the same at movie theaters, while I don't mind a teaser/trailer, I don't want to see all the best parts of the movie, in a 2 minute clip. Damnabbit!  But I digress, my list of grievances about advertizers is a mile long, so I won't bore...    less

    Posted in the topic Towing a Trailer Behind Your Motorcycle in the forum Biker Chat
    July 19, 2014 1:10 PM PDT
    I have towed a rather large trailer behind my Ultra for thousands of miles for about 6 years. Wouldn't be without it for long trips. Wife don't pack light. I guess I'm guilty also. the only thing negative is you have to remember it is there. I went over a high curb with right trailer wheel and went down. Nothing hurt but pride. It does make the rear tire wear more rapidly but you don't have the bike piled high with stuff and overloaded.
