The bike is from Illinois and the owner bought it brand new. He kept in the garage and never rode it. The bike is completely stock. I think he had a close scare, and never got back on it. A wholesaler located it and brought it to Texas. He had it for two days when I bought it from him. I got a great deal, now I need some pipes b/c the stock pipes have got to go.

Treasure in a garage. Reminds me of the urban legends you hear of soldiers not coming back, and thier mothers finally selling the "old Chevy' he left in the garage, and having it turn out to be a 63 split window Corvette, or something. Glad your treasure turned out to be true.

I am considering the Vance and Hines Big Shots Staggered. I like the sound and the looks, but I have not made any final decisions yet.
