RE: Year and Mileage
My 91 FXSTS had 42,000 on the odometer when I bought it. I met the original owner and he told me it had about 10,000 more then the odometer said. He replaced the speedo. I had to replace 6 speedos before I changed the tank and hung a small speedo from the bars. Well the bike had over 250,000 miles on it when I changed the motor. Before that nothing bigger then the stator went out, a couple of votage regulators and the drive pully came loose. Sheared the set screw off. I had 60,000 on the new motor when the main crank bearing let loose. I have about 5,000 on the rebuild. ( I have a secound bike now so it doesn't get ridden as much as it use to)

"newest" wifes bike 1999 fxr2 screaming eagle 44,000 mi.
bike on the block 2001 sportster 883
Long live the evo! no twin cams for me either.
I like mine alot as well, the bagger has an ev27 in it (now) and supertrapps with all the discs in a drawer. sounds better
fxr2 has a 2-1 pipe pretty rowdy, hehe, the big twin is a whole new ball game for the wifey 5'2" 115# she likes ridin it but it is a little cold yet for her to really enjoy it. so I'm ridin it around town. sweet bike
when it came time to buy new bikes I looked hard at the newer stuff but realized I don't like them as much as the reliable evo.

RE: Year and Mileage
Got a 1995 FLHTCUI that I bought in May of 2006 with just shy of 47,000 miles on it. At the start of last year, I had to have a manifold gasket on it in Ocalawhile coming back from Daytona at 56,000 miles. And now it's in the shop getting the base gasket leak taken care of. Having the bottom end run though also while it's down. It's going to be getting theStage 1on it also.
Think it's setting at just under 67,000 mileson it right now.

1991 FLHS 80k did .020 10.5 SE pistons at 65k (was blowing by so bad that the breather was leaving trials) and did cam this winter to better match Interstate commute for better power band. HSR 42 with Yost kit added, ported heads, Hard Krome 2 into 1 and Crane single fire ig system. So far 37 mpg at 75 and lots of twist left to turn if needed. Had to fix a trans seal between input and output shafts.

RE: Year and Mileage
This is my 94 Heritage Classic. I got her from a dealer as a waste case with 58,000 on the clock. After a rebuild and exchange of a few worn out parts, she is back with a long life ahead of her. I put her back "in service" in late February and now (April 18th) she has already 1,600 miles on her rebuild. This bike is my day to day ride and with the exception of long trips, has replaced my 07 RK. I do not know what it is but the EVO just feels right compared to the new TC's. The hunt is now on for another "EVO project"; hey the two HD's and the Beemer are looking for a new stable mate.
