The wife and I took the motorcycle (Ultra Limited) out Sunday after sleeping in (long hours required a bit extra sleep (that is my story and I am sticking to it)) for a short ride. It was a cool day and we put our chaps on for the 1st time since early spring….fall is in the air in Northern Virginia!
I wanted to stop a Frederick Harley Davidson to schedule some services. I need to have the 5000 mile service performed (currently setting at about 5700 miles) and I need to have the current recall service performed as well. This is the hydraulic clutch recall which portrays its symptoms as the bike creeping forward even though the clutch lever is fully engaged. Our bike does not have the malfunction indications but it needs to be fixed before it does. In talking with the service rep Frederick HD has already performed hundreds of recall services for this issue but no one had reported that the bike was suffering from creeping clutch.
After setting up the appointment, we decided to get some lunch. Even though we both agree we need to eat better…….we went to 5 Guys Burgers! For those of you that do not live in an area with a 5 Guys restaurant you have no idea what you are missing. This burger chain is Zagat rated and has won hundreds if not thousands of awards and accolades for their hamburgers. So even though we may have not eaten better we ate well!
After lunch we headed to the house via the long way. We just cruised around for a while going nowhere in particular. We spent only about four hours on the bike but I think we can both say is was a nice little outing!
I JUST WANT 2 RIDE!!
