No reason really , just found this bike online ,liked it , made an offer and they took me up on it . I knew I could'nt go wrong with an evo or a TC for that matter . I do most of my own wrenching so I try to stick with the carbed bikes. I have had one FI bike , it ran great but was really hot on the legs in warm weather , cost me 300 bucks to get it richened up enough to get the temps down and running the way I liked . I can jet a carb for 4 dollars .

Thanks for all the replies. I called harley customer care and gave them my vin #, The name for the color is " bright aqua and birch white" code 080, There was 679 flstc in this color world wide and another 75 produced for California in 1997 . Interesting what you can find out with one phone call.

Seems to me that EVO's are way cheaper to maintain than Twin Cams. Besides the fact that they are so easy to work on that most do it themselves. The parts guy at the HD shop I go to still has his 84 Softail. He loves EVO's just like us, and they keep all the parts in stock for them.
