Really appreciate the ideas here. The tires are soft enough I can leave a finger nail mark and after a short time it disappears.
Unclebilly thanks for this info, I never used ChatGPT yet. But alot of this info makes sense. Seems like a good direction to start.
The bike will be limited in use. I do have a set of 18" rims that I had run for several years and now are in need of tires and seeing I have not run the bike for sometime I am re-installing the original rims and seat that were on the bike when I first got it in the mid 90s. I tore down the bike for a repaint, rewire and re-tire. It needed a refresh as the (poorly prepped) non original paint and old cloth wires were deteriorated pretty bad.
It is Harley Davidsons 50th Anniversary edition parts for Ks are not too common and I've had my fun on it. I've had it about 30 years and now it will retire to just show. I do run my 66 BMW R60/2 regularly and with the sideways kick starter, magneto, and lower compression is easier on me.
I am casually looking for a 100th Anniversary 2003 Harley Softtail Springer as an additional stable mate. Electric start and the look I like.
