"I rented an Ultra Glide and coming back from AZ in NV over the Hoover dam (maybe 2009 so just before they finished the bypass bridge ) in stationary traffic, that thing near enough cooked my legs.
Loaded with luggage and a pillion it was impossible to do anything other than sit there and cook "
Amen to that funkletrumpet! An outfit called Captain Itch makes a leather heat deflector that some say helps Harley-burn... The aftermarket heat deflectors on my glide seemed to do okay, but I never sat in triple digit temps at a long traffic light or construction.
