Default Did It Again

.....and for the last time. I've owned four Dynas over the last 20 years. Traded each one for a bagger, because I thought I'd like them better (I had a Road King, two Street Glides and one Electra Glide). Anyway, I just turned 73 and the Electra Glide was just becoming too heavy. I need rotator cuff surgery and moving the bike around just got to be, well painful. So, I sold it and bought my fifth Dyna, a 2012 Super Glide Custom which is my favorite in the Dyna lineup. Has most of the things I want on it already....forward controls, stage one, and exhaust. 13,000 miles. At my age, this one's keeper.......

You can still ride without a windshield. I hate the wind beating on me. Congrats, I get the "lighter bike" thing! I've got a 74 shovel that is too heavy for me anymore. Gotta regretfully say good bye.
