Altugo,

It's always the same with you: Making friends through communication skills that no one else could imagine. Is this the line of questioning that got you the fine lady you're with? Just overwhelm them with your innocent looks and journalistic proddings.....

Only you get away with that stuff bud.

Had the same problem with mine last year and it drove me nuts. Took the rear shocks off and broght them to the dealer so he could take them apart and clean them (service manager was good to me and didn't charge me). he found a rock in there and he centered it up a little better and sprayed it with some sort of lube. It actually rode a bit harsh before I had that done. It was really more of a nuisance but I have seen quite a few softails have this problem.

Hmmm, from the looks of that picture (nice eye candy) I just can't figure out for the life of me what would make you go to that bar. ;)
