Thank You Sir for making my pic larger. I just can't seem to get the hang of doing that here, even after reading up on how to do it.

That isn't my bikes original color, mine was white. It is a optional color Harley offered in the '76-'78 time frame for FLH's.

Well....it's atleast as close as I could get matching that factory color option. It's hard to pry the paint recipes out of Harley sometimes.

The 68 has changed a lot since this image last year. I'll post more once I get her back together with OEM wind screen and seat.

Thanks Jeff.
Been very busy as usual, getting a car ready to drag race this summer taking a ton of my time. Then found I needed to have surgery to repair a double hernia once that was done had to have the other side done same thing another double...
I'm just getting back on my feet after the 2nd one and back in the garage finishing up the Shovel and the 01 Dyna for this spring.
