RE: older bikes don't get much interest
As has been said, this Evo forum is pretty new. Other thing is most of us who own 'em work on 'em ourselves, and usually know what we're doing. When we get in a jam there will be questions asked here or in the specific tech section.

You are exactly right. When you have owned the same bike for ten or more years there are not too many questions left. But for the new owners who just bought an Evo, fire away Bros. Of course I'm not saying there are not SOME questions I will need to ask.

RE: older bikes don't get much interest
Well, let's fire this furum up! I have this bike and I know that we are both getting older, but I think we both have a few miles left in us. I have done some wrenching on her ( I purchased a shop manual some time ago (it is grease stained, dog eared, and coming apart at the seams), and had the shop do a few mods that I felt were out of my league ( PM six piston caliper and 13 inch floating disk), but she is full of life and so am I.

Always loved evo's, evo Heritage Classic is the one that I saw that made me want a Harley...I just couldn't afford one until the 88b's.
You gonna have that scoot fixed by this spring there Low?

I noticed that as well but there's lots of help for the older bike as well.
Seems to be less complaints - HHHmmmm I wonder why?
