Poser here!
Hate to get that black mark on my toes when I wear the "Flip-Flops".
















Just kidding Jerry, just kidding!

Don't wear flip flops, but that is one thing I like about having a heel shifter. I marked up so many pairs of shoes/boots before having a heel shifter. I didn't think I was going to like it when I got my first Harley (Fatboy), but after I got the bike I really like using it and wouldn't think of taking it off. When I was having problems w/my hip before it was replaced it was nice having the heel shifter and not having to shift (up) w/my toes as that movement was uncomfortable.

Boy did I have a comeback for that one Chip.  And then I scrolled down and you let all the air out.

One of my biggest pet peeves is folks wearing sandals, flip-flops, even sneakers on a motorcycle.  I'm guessing you knew that.

Not so fast.  I marked one pair of boots and that was enough for me. 
Took me about day and half to get used to heel shifting and never went back.

As for the wire clip on windshield, it only serves as a reminder of extra money I've paid for useless items from Mo Co.   :beatdeadhorse:
Maybe they were put there in case they make a bike with reverse gear  :vrolijk27:

I just have to remember not to park away from hilo pads.

Some engineer/designer designed them and was probably REALLY proud of them, and now some HD employee is the wind shield release wire thing guy on the assembly line and is pretty proud of his job...

Cant disappoint them!   :nixweiss:

I believe those clips were only put there to serve as an added noise ( mine rattle ) source to prevent the rider from concentrating on the noises coming from the engine. ;D

Those aren't mine they just offered a nice background. Thought it was nice to have real horses behind the iron horse. :2vrolijk_21:
