If I was you I'd go out in the garage and fire the bike up to be certain you made a good decision, report back if you still feel bad and post Evo free to a good home

Some of the people I ride with should read this thread because I couldn't have said that any better myself, it justifies my strange way of thinking. Thank you for Zen.

Ride with 3 Shovel gray beards, They take shots at my Evo (See No Evo) and still havn't accepted a Twinkee as being built, Evo riders carried on the tradition sorta. One of my younger buddies has a Evo and a Shovel, also hasn't accepted a Twinkee being built, he is far from a gray beard but has the same mentality.

Gotta give the Shovel some credit, they run the snot out of them and it takes a very well modded engine to stay with them. One of Shovels has a 4 3/4 stroker engine in a Super Glide and the only bike around here that will stay with my big cube engine, he still has the 4 speed in it. Kinda funny seeing guys is mid and late 60"s trash talking performance but can see the die hard roots of a Harley riding tradition in them, they taught me alot about Harley riding and brotherhood. They are also funny about who they let ride with them, don't go into alot of detail but trust is big part
