Default Back in business! '05 DWG

So, after four years off a bike, 2 months on craigslist, and getting finances straight I sprang for an '05 FXDWG in Lava Red Sunglo paint. Shy of 10k on the odo, and packed with extras, stage 1, and Bassani Pro-Street pipes. First purchase will probably be a Sundowner seat to replace the lazy-boy, pillow stuffed seat and backrest. PO skulled the heck out of it, but I can live with that for now.

Feels good to be back!

Good score! IMO, the FXDWG is one of MoCo's best looking bikes(I have an 02) It's a motorcycle in it's pure form, with some of the cleanest, sexiest lines available.
If ya don't mind me asking, what did ya give for it?

Also, if you plan on ditching the sissy bar, I'll say dibs!

Agreed! They look like a StreetBob with the 2 up seat, and drag bars. They should have just renamed the bike.
