I used to have a 2003 sporster, I always liked the 100th anniversary tanks. Great looking bike you bought. Congrats.

Nice

Even at only 8500 miles on the bike you should inspect the cam chain tensioners so you know their current condition...

My buddy is going to open it up and take a look. It also came with a backrest and bags that we are gonna toss on.
Found a sweet deal on a mustang vintage wide seat that I’m going to toss on so the OL is comfy on back.
