Re: New Bike

That was on my short list when I got my Z1000. It was just a little too small for me.

Nice Bike.

Re: New Bike

I'm with Bill on this Neil.

Seems a shame to sell that lovely Softail of yours, even if I did want to chop off that long rear fender!

I was sad to see it go but to be honest i have spent the last 18 months changing it trying to get it to how i wanted and was never happy with it.

Gonna get myself a sporty at some point in the next few months and make something with that from scratch, that way i get what i want from the beginning


She was looking very pretty yesterday with the new front guard and dresser bars fitted!

couple of pics to remeber her by!

Re: New Bike

Its a good move. I must have sat on a smaller one then. I like an upright position.

These old farts dont understand the need of us youngsters for some real speed.

Sportsters are the young dudes harley. Enjoy.
