Hey Sanders, I'm with you, I would not trust a steri-pen and I am not into putting iodine tablets in my water.  I've used a First Need filter that I got at REI for years of filtering in the Boundary Waters.  http://www.rei.com/product/767831  I'd recommend it.

MSR and Katadyn also make good options.

jacket sold, helmet still available:


Like new Icon Alliance helmet for sale, size = XL.
http://minneapolis.craigslist.org/ram/mcy/1702165999.html

Worn only twice, it is too small for my head. Excellent condition! Retails for $180, selling for $50


  • XL
  • DOT certified
  • SNELL 2000 approved
  • Yellow Rubatone finish
  • Clear shield
  • $180 retail


It is bright yellow with the very cool rubatone paint which, according to Icon is "Rubatone Finish-Rubatone paint is a special formula of rubberized polymers and vivid color. A helmet finish like no other...this rubberized "grippy" surface was developed for the sole purpose of matching your riding gear. Its flat appearance and distinct feel give you the street style that you've been looking for."



Cash only, please

That was including the bars, I believe, but I just want simple low-rise bars similar to current stock sportster bars.

Thanks for the leads and for the advice, all!  Much appreciated!

Thanks DL, no I am not going from apes, but the buckhorn bars have solid brakelines and the clutch cable is really long, so I think they will both need to be swapped.  I stopped at one place and they said about $600 for an estimate.  I asked a couple of years ago at a Harley shop and they said more than that.  That seems a bit high, doesn't it?

Bike Help / Independent cruiser/Harley shop?
« on: April 14, 2010, 06:31:36 PM »

This is a bit off topic for sportbikes, but does anyone know of an independent motorcycle shop that would be a good place to have lower bars put on my Sportster?  Most Harley franchise rates are quite high and I think the work would be fairly simple.  However, it would be beyond me as the clutch cable and front brake lines would need to be replaced. 

So I am looking for an independent motorcycle shop to get an estimate from.  Any places to share or recommendations?  Even if you have just seen one, let me know.  Thank you!
