Registered the 02 FLHR on post this week.  They're issuing installation decals again.  Wish I could place these decals on my 06 SEUC like this, but the VIN decal is in the way.

Neither!  She's a carbureted Baby, and Chip.........I'm lovin' her.  Just like olden times.

Cool Henry!

I'm a Mikuni guy on a twin cam but I have a few stock carbs laying around if you ever need one or some parts.
And YES on an EVO there's noting better than a S&S!

Thanks Chip.  Bike is running so good right now.  There's almost 13K on it now.  I don't know if anyone has been into the cam chest.......even though it pulls stronger than any TC88 I've ever ridden, but long about 18K, I'll start getting nervous.  Thinking about Wood's TW6 cams and gears.......and might go with one of Wood's carbs.  Cross that bridge when we get there.  Most likely it will remain an 88cid, since I'm perfectly happy with the power and torque it produces.

Yeah, I know Spydy, and I know he'll counsel me accordingly.  9 times out of 10 I tend to listen to the big guy..........but he hasn't ridden this RK.  Sure, there's more to be had, but for what it is.......it is damn good.........and I'm confident Chip would agree.

Exactly Henry!
Sounds like the RK runs like my 03 Classic.
Hubbard use to swear there was no way that motor is stock.
But it was.
So Henry your right about checking the shoes and maybe adding gears but past that, ride that puppy!
It has many many good years of fun left in it.

I cut out a thin piece of clear plastic, almost the thickness of something like a pop bottle, the same size as the sticker and then stuck the sticker on the plastic. 

Then I put double-sided foam sticky tape, the gray stuff meant for outdoors, on the back of the plastic and stuck the whole thing to the lower left side of my windshield on my Road King. 

It is easy to take off and move if need be because of the foam tape.  You can peel the whole thing off and move it somewhere else if you need to, or just leave it be.

Anyone that's tried to remove the DOD stickers knows they usually come off in little pieces.  This way you remove the plastic "plate" with the sticker attached.  Works for me and the gate guards!

I don't have a picture of my sticker plate, but it looks like one of the ones posted here, except it is mounted to the axle.  Not too obvious and it does the trick.  Not exactly where the "recommend" it to be placed, but screw them, I am NOT putting it on the chrome forks!

I used static clear material, like some forms of window tint, and stuck the stickers to the film, then applied that to my windshield.  Easily removed when not headed for post.  For a long time, I rarely rode on base.

This is what I came up with for DoD decal placement on Thumper

That appears to be tucked in behind that pipe enough not to.  spyder

I think a dungaree wearing Sailor might.      Perhaps if I pull out, and can still fit into, my bellbottoms from the 70s, I might.   

It's inboard and back far enough that there shouldn't be concern.
