Not mine, but my father's. A demolition company east of New York City, on Long Island, found this 1980 Wide Glide inside a rose bush. The rose bush had completely grown around the bike and the bike was outside and unseen for probably close to 25 years. My father traded an old carb. for it and guess what? It fired right up after a little maintenance and it rides around the yard. According to the speedo, it had only a few thousand miles on it. DMV will allow a new title to be issued so it gets rebuilt in the 2013/2014 winter. (note the original factory tires still holding air)

Picked this 2000 wideglide up last weekend. Not sure what I'm going to do with it yet except change out the cams and remove those drag pipes.
