Default 98 Wide Glide

Been wanting another bike for sometime now, and found me a 98 Wide Glide the other night on craiglist. It's much different than the touring models i've been riding... needs a couple of leaks fixed but it seems to be a good bike...

Very nice. Looks like the P.O. spent some cash on it over the years. Lots of nice parts.

I think the colour is Aztec Orange which came out in 99 so you must have a newer bike than you thought,there were no orange bikes in 98 according to the imfo i've got.
