Default New to me 1991 Tour Glide

Just bought a '91 Tour Glide that has honest wear, but runs well. My wife has been bugging me to go riding, and my current 1200 Sportster just isn't designed for 2 up. Unless we weighed 125lbs each. We far exceed that.

So I've been on a quest to find a touring bike that didn't break the bank, in need of some TLC and would a good 1st, comfortable 2 up bike. So this is it.



Love the ride, still getting used to 800lbs of bike. Matter of fact, I've already dropped it. Oh well, I'll get used to it.

I'm sure as I go through the bike and start cleaning it up I'll have many questions.

Nice !

welcome to the new bike- and welcome to the forums.

FYI there is an Evo forum as well.

https://www.hdforums.com/forum/evo-classic-models-84/

Most of the riders on this forum have late models.

Hi Greg and welcome to HDF from the UK and a 1990 Glide. Call in the Evo forum, where you will find plenty of fellow Evo touring members. The beauty of the touring models is that they don't actually fall very far, thanks to the bars.
