I ride ‘24 RH975, the engine acts as the stressed member of the chassis so I can’t use the traditional lower frame rails, I suppose. Any good recommendations for keeping my bike upright when working on it? Based on my understanding, the wheel chock is the easiest to use but paddock rear stand can be useful when working on the rear tire.

Got my 2024 Nightster standard during thanksgiving ‘24. Break in service done at HD dealership last year this time around 1k. Will be competing 24 months in next 2 months, should I flush & replace brake fluids (planning to do services myself going forward)? Have clocked 2700 miles and should be 3k right about that time. Should I still flush & replace brake fluids? Or should I do only if moisture test warrants it?

I’m not too conclusive yet but here is my situation:
* M40s. High LDL. Diet works few months a year but not sustainable.
* Started 5 mg Rosuvastatin, end of April. No side effects noticed.
* I play Tennis 2-3 times a week. Each session lasts about 1.5-2 hours.
* I strength train 3x weekly.
* Due to personal and work travel, became sedentary and skipped all my workouts for about 4-8 weeks or so.
* Gained about 6-8 pounds last 2 months.
* Restarted my workout routine about 2 weeks ago.
* Starter experiencing knee and ankle joint pain during air travel. They are more intense and bothering joint pain post workouts and when doing basic chores (getting up from seat, kneeling down, etc.)

I’m wondering whether it is due to sudden restart of workout routine or I started experiencing statin side effects.

If you were able to conclusive diagnose statin side effects, how long after you started meds you experienced muscle join pain?

My experience can also be sudden restart of workout routine and less recovery for my body but I have done multiple weight gain & losses in my life and never experienced something like this before. May be I started experiencing sweet 40s, lol.

I’m not in either spectrum (statin haters, statin lovers). I want to do what’s best for me and so I want different perspectives before I talk to my PCP. Meanwhile, I’m planning to slow down but be consistent and return back to my old regimen and see how it goes for me…

Purchased my Nightster during thanksgiving 2024. Noticed coolant leaks twice in the last 20 months. Reported to dealership, they scoffed off saying some new bikes may leak first. I did not notice further leaks when parked but it was leaking a little always when I ride because I had to refill about 1 quart (32 fl oz) every 8 months or so. Finally was able to get the dealership pressure test the bike and found the root cause to be failed radiator cap.

While it is being covered by warranty, what other checklist I should ask them to run given my bike was always running low on coolant last 18 months?

I don’t have any problems other than coolant, the bike rides well but want to know what else should be checked to rule out any issues to engine or any other parts as the bike was starving out of coolant for prolonged period of time.

This looks like it can hold a laptop, lockable, and has shock cutout for tight fit, all checkboxes ticked! Can anyone share feedback if you have been using this?
