Honestly they were a lucky find. Had hooker headers on cars in high school so it was emotional decision not power. Gotta say they sound great and the bike runs pretty damn good with them.
might do a cam this winter but really pretty happy with how it runs as is so may not…
thanks for all the compliments guys!
evo section is awesome!

Heritage's scream nostalgic Harley.

Yeah the simplicity of the older bikes and soul gives you a feeling hard to describe, have a 05 Roadglide for the wife trips, although it's a nice ride once the wife quit riding the RG sat in the corner, the Evo White Bike and it's soul goto again.
Ride with Shovel guys, came across a cheap 82 Shovel Tourglide, went thru it mechanically, Satin paint and it's soul grabbed me on the road, the White Bike owned for 18+ years has only been out once in 2 years. Never had any intentions of selling the Evo but have been offered a substantial amount for a 97 bike, good chance it will have a new owner, the Shovel is harder to explain than the Evo with it's soul.

Didn't see that on the phone when I looked at it.

Doing good. Never riding enough.

I'll trade you my Eagle Lights LED Headlight and passing lights, for the headlight and passing lights on your sled...if they're the kind of lights that take a bulb inside them and not sealed beams.

Reason being, The Eagle lights work pretty good, but they still aren't quite the pattern I like out in front of me. I'm just particular I guess, plus, if I have your lights, I already have a LED bulb for the headlight and can get the LED bulbs for the passing lamps easily enough. Plus, living on a fixed income disability check, I can ill afford to get a new bulb of this type of LED (the Eagle light kind) if something busts one of them. I was able to get these only because a cager T-boned me two years ago and I got a small insurance settlement. Buying a new LED 'bulb' instead of a whole light will be *much* easier for me to do, heh. Oh, and I've had these for about a year now...it took me a whole year on crutches to learn how to walk again (my left-side ribs all got fractured, a punctured lung, and my left leg got seriously messed up and I now have metal braces and screws all over inside and a metal rod inside the big bone of the calf from knee to ankle).

Holler at me with a PM or here, either one is good, if you're interested. Oh, my bike is a '97 FLSTC, and here's the setup I have...

They’re sealed beams.
