as i said
1990 FXLR
forward controls
starter is no longer on the bars but on the starter itself
vanse and hines pipes
custom two tone seat
red over air brush work
the big telling thing about the bike is the paint which is signed by Cris Cruz
I was told that there is a rumor that the bike was in a movie but I have tried to verify with no luck
so i thought someone here may be able to help me out
can post a picture or two if iy would help
Welcome to HDF from the UK and from a 1990 FLHS owner! Sounds like a fine bike, so look forward to seeing photos of it. Unfortunately you won't be able to post any directly on HDF until you have a few more posts (all do with scammer problems and the like), but if you have them posted on another website you can give us a link. We can't think clearly without photos!
thanks for the welcome
well guess I will have to post when I can
the bike is a step up from my other bikes and we all start somewhere
1979 Honda nighthawk to
Yamaha ysr50 to

Suzuki 800 to
my first HD
when I got this bike the speedo was new not sure why but it now has 1100+ miles on it. It is a daily rider
also working on the wife's bike but that is another story
texashillcountry thanks for the welcome
I would have to agree alot of money was put into this bike by others. just based on the amount of added chrome goodies
the neck has a chrome cover
the starter button is chrome
chrome slotted mag wheels
both tank caps have the eagle logo
the primary cover has the eagle logo
the list of chrome is long
the bike is a an attention getter mostly because of the paint.
well got some pics photo bucket sucks today
not the best pics but you get the idea
so if you have any info as to the identity of this bike i would be very interested
well thak you
it is ny first HD and some have called it a RATT. At fist I was a little insulted so i was stupid ad asksed why? I always thought a ratt was a stripped down missmatched paint never washed cool beater bike that always ran no matter what. But i was told ratt Ridden All The Time well yea ever day it sees some riding and gets washed when I want to ride in the rain. Cause if I wash it. it rains.
