Default Any FXR3 Owners Out There?

I just bought one...looking for anyone that has experienced any problems whatsoever with the model.

The owner's manual is actually an FXR2 and it appears the differences were only cosmetic. Am I correct in this assumption?

Thanks In Advance,

Paul,

I think the only difference in the 3 and the 2 was cosmetic. My understanding of the FXR2 and FXR3 is that when HD came out with the Dyna, which replaced the FXR, they had some frames left, so these frames were used to make factory customs, ie, FXR2 and FXR3.

As far as problems, don't look for anything unusual. My son had a 1992 FXR Convertible, and it was one fine motorcycle. The FXR was actually one of the best bikes HD ever made. They didn't have quite the look of other Haleys, but they were fine machines.

Go ride and enjoy your Classic bit of HD History.

Regards,

Bill
