Default ...FLD Owners...

So far I’ve counted 14 FLD owners on this forum, could be more I don’t know.

What do you think of your new FLD?
Got it broke in yet?
Any mods done?

detachable medium low sissy bar and luggage rack
cylinder head filler
parts i already have to put on:
bottle opener
S&S aircleaner
chrome rocker boxes
chrome tappett covers
chrome tranny cover
want to change the polished cam and outer primary to black , but keep chrome 103 covers
think i'm gonna try the cobra power pro auto tuner , and get some nice staggered dual pipes, maybe some cams later..

Hey I'm one of those. I've added driver passenger backrest, engine guard, taller windshield. I go to work either early in the morning or get home after midnight. Gonna leave the exhaust alone for awhile. Very happy with averaging 43 mpg and having fun. almost 2K now. Going to PA the weekend of Oct 8th

I learned global networking in the 1900's
that is what they used to call webpage editing...
right click on an open portion of the page and select view page source
select find in the notepad dialogue and type this in IMG_0947.JPG
you will see the tags I had to add to make this work. you also need a website where you can host you pictures.
the tags are in there. it is a lot to try to explain in a blog...
