I can actually ride without sweating profusely! Time to stop playing with guns (so much) and put a few miles on the old TourGlide. And, I have a new rattle! Screw it, just ride.
BTW, the population has changed, don't see anything from Spanners or TD, they still around?

Up here, the riding season is all but over, and it looks like I won't have my bike back on the road until next spring. I'm still waiting on the painter to paint the new rear fender after the accident back in August.
If I'd known how long this "artist" was going to take, I'd have ridden the rest of the season with the wrinkled fender and taken it off when I stored the bike for winter (the painter couldn't paint the new fender without having the old one in hand for a pattern). As it is, I missed the best of the riding season this year.

Doesn't sound like the artist is all that good to me.
Pictures should have given him/her all they need to do the job.

You'd think so, wouldn't you? It's the same two tone w/ pinstripes that was on every Harley of that era. Unfortunately, H-D won't supply painted sheet metal for a bike this old, and in this area there aren't a lot of painters to choose from.
